the same material. Across the bosom
OF each were the words " Salvation
Army" in yellow zephyr. The same

Yates, simply wore badges of bright
metal, about the size of II dollar, pinned
to the left shoulder. Each OF the
three principal women carried tam

adapted to military music. The exer-

the principal street corners, consisted
of exhortations by the Captain and
Sergeant, and singing, led by the ca
