THURSDAY.
Death of Mrs. W, E, Curt.
An Interesting Career.
From the Statesman :
One of the best trained officers in the
csnip is Capt. W. SI. Copelan, com
manding Toop A the Lebanon cavalry.
Cap tain Copelan is a German by birthl
received part of bis education in the
land of the Great White Czar, and came
to the United States thirteen years ago,
locating in New York Btate. Coming
from a long line of snldierB the martial
spirit in him asserted itself, and al
though successful in his profession, that
of a phaimacist and chemist, he longed
for military life, until being able to no
longer resist hia desires, about eight
years ago, he enlisted rs a common
trooper in the Second United States cav
alry. He saw service in that regiment
in every portion of the west, and at the
expiration of his term he re-enli-ted,
being assigned to the Fourth cavalry.
After serving with that famous regiment
for a time, be was asstgnea to tnettos
pital corpi and was sent to Alaska, when i
fi, finirmmnnt relinf expedition went !
totlat iar Northern countrv to bring
relief to the suffering Klondikers. This
accomplished, the relief column was di-1
videdinto three exploring ex ped Urns', 1
and Captain Copelan was assigned as the
hospital steward to the first of liieae.
When thoy had completed their work,
the expeditions returned to Vancouver
Barracks, when uaptain uopeian was ;
immediately ordered to San Francisco,
and placed m charge ota Hospital detail,
with orders to proceed to Manila. He
remained in the Philippines during the
Luzon campaign, and, in spite of his
arduous duties, remained in perfect
health. He returned from Manila last
fall, and located in Lebanon, where he is
now engaged in the mercantile business,
and it as through his efforts that the
cavalry troop was organized, the best
young men in Lebanon and the sur
rounding country enlisting, and they ate
making excellent troopers. Captain
Copelan is proud of hiscommand, and is
unsparing in h.s efforts to make his men
good soldiers; at the same time he
watches over them with a fatherly care,
and secures splendid results, their dis
cipline being of the best, and their de
portment that of gentlemen in every in
stance. Captain Copelan is accompan
ied by bis wife, a bride of a few weeks,
and the lady was yesterday joined by
her sister, Mrs. D. W. Cruson, of Leba
non. Mrs. CruBon rode down from Leb
anon on her wheel, accompanied by her
12-vear-old son. Frank, and they will
spend several days in the soldiers' camp
