4 Great Aftermath.

WEIRs, y. H, Aug. 30.-The Weirs GATHER
ing of this week may we'll be termed the after
math Of the National EHCampmeut This has
been a great week for the New Hampshire vet
Grams; no, not for New Hampshire, for the
veterans of all New England and for large
number from more than dozen States outside
New England. Rhode Island has been I'D
here in force, and Massachusetts, IS always
strong in the Weirs Eucampmeut. The exer-
cises have run through the week, and have
been enjoyed by as many as 10000 people in
one day. The Campires have been attended
by from 5000 10 5000 veterans and friends.
The Campfire of Wednesday night was pre-
sided over by Col. c. E. Hapgo0d, Vice Presi-
dent Of the Association, and the CamphFs5 OF
Tuesday aud Thursday nights were conducted
by Capt. +. H. Budum, Chairman of the Camp
fire Committee. The preparations for the
CamphFes OF this Eucampment have been more
carefully made than ever before, and the result
is by general consent that these monster gath
erings have been more successful than ever
known heretofore in the history Of the New
Hampshire veterans. The speaking has been
better, the attention closer, and the whole eff
feet more satisfactory. A band, q drum corps
and Il quartet have furnished the music Among
the speakers have been COMMANDMENT in Chief

best features of the great Campfire was the
stereopJicOn views of G. y. Thomas, showing 3
large number of veterans As they looked when
they enlisted. in comparison with their phiz"
of to-day. Some of the contrasts were both
striking and amusing The President Of the
Association, Col. Cogswell has attended strictly
to business and has ably conducted the En-
campment. Col. @. E. Hapgood is the new
President of the Association, with Past Depart
meut Commander NJ NJ. Coils Vice President.
The Amusement Committee of this year has
been more efficient than any Of its predeces-
sors, and the special entertainments have been
such as have never been witnessed before 40
the Weirs. The grand lake illumination OK
Thursday night was one of the finest speetaoles
ever presented ia the open air. The credit for
this display is largely due to Maj. GaFrish and
Capt. PiieF.
Commander-in-Chief Veazey put in some
hard work at the Weirs, inspecting every head

aud speaking good many times. Paul Van

Horrible Revelations Of Malpractice In
Milwaukee. ~
MILWAUKEE, April GA local paper de-
votes five columns to an alleged expose Of
the criminal practices of DR.. Thomas
Hatchard. Ten days ago DR.. Hatchard
brought suit for divorce against his wife
Nancy, in which he alleged she had ex-
cessively used liquor and morphine. Mrs.
Hatchard in return charged her husband
with many brutal acts. including criminal
malpractice and the burning of young
babies alive. Among other things the
answer, which is sworn to, states that he
converted their home into hospital where
women who wished to avoid tho conse-
Quences of their crimes we're treated: that
she was forced against her will to care for
and nurse them after he performed opera
tions. She says that on at least two occa-
sions the doctor burned prematurely born
babies, and that one woman, Maggie
Hogan, from Fond du Lac county, died in
their house from the effect of a criminal
operation. The answer gives the names,
dates and details of horrible chapter of
crimes alleged to have been committed by
the doctor. In an interview attested by
affidavit, Mrs. Hatchard declares that she
saw her husband take no less than five new
them shrieking and kicking into the
flames. He did the same. she says, with
many others, both dead and alive, probably
twenty altogether. The Hogan girl, and
another named LabRworthy, died from the
effects of abortions in his house. The rec
ords of the health department show the
death of these girls.
