A FROLIC, THINK YOU.
The Boys Of 90. II. Reply to An
Article
In the Progress-Democrat, Wherein
Their Call to Goal Greek is Re-
ferred to As Frolic.
To the Tobacco Leat-Cnronicle.

/. Coal CREEK. August "a. - Our
friends at home do not seem to real.
ize how much 1--WE boys" prize a
home newspaper, and consequently
but very few have been received in
camp, and they were old when re-
eeived, therefore the falsehood con-
tanned in the following clipping
(taken from the Progress. Democrat
under date OF August l9) has not
been refuted sooner:
DON'T EXPECT TO FIGHT.
The Clarksville military did not
expect to have any fighting to do,
and looked upon their trip as a froiic.
They were in good spirits and ex-
pected to reach Coal Creek, If not
ordered back before reaching there,
after the most serious trouble Is over.
This morning by Q or 3 o'clock was
the earliest possible hour the boys
could get to Knoxville, and what
they would do after reaching there no
one knew.
To say that our boys "did not ex-
pect any fighting" when they left
their pleasant homes and friends for
the hardships and dangers which
they would have to undergo, in order
to crush out red. handed anarchy, rep
resented by the most lawless and
desperate men in the State, to say
this would be to say that all were
rank fools. To those who watch a
battle from afar off, not expecting to
join in the fray, the battle may be a
beautiful sight, "a frolic," but TO
these who march onward, ever on
ward-well, they 60 from sense OF
duty and honor, but do not regard 1t
as 'frolic."
The boys here are not towards, and
have been in good spirits all the way
through, and though as yet we. have
not been under fire, we have cheer
fully answered the bugle call to arms
on half dozen occasions, when we
expected conflict, and with one ex
ception Che is not here now not a
man in Company III showed the
while feather. Not that they started
in with reckless bravado, but fully
realized the danger OF the situation
and faced it with cool courage.
AS for fighting. Had it not been
for the niggardly policy of the State
whereby we had not a single round
of ammunition in our company, W,
would have left Knoxville at once
and proceeded to Coal Greek, wher,
undoubtedly we would have received
our baptism of fire. Ever since thu
boys have been anxious to get in {
scrap, as they call it, and they vii
probably be accommodated, as ther'
is a rumor in camp this evening tina

, Jellico, one of the worst places IL
this district save Coal Creek.
This letter is merely to state tina
, Company III did expect fgh ing AM
, did not regard the trip as frolic b.
any means, nor is it now picnic.

iuty tonight, il they don't go L

For Another Term as State Chairman of the

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 24-[Special i
The Democratic State Central Committee
will hold its annual meeting in Harrisburg
Wednesday afternoon, January 18, for the
election of officers and for the transaction of
such other business as may be brought be-
fore it 1t is generally expected that j.
Marshall Wright will be reelected as chair
man. He is favored by the State admins
tration leaders, and thus far there is no op-
position whatever to him. Under the rules of
the Democratic party the division chairman
of the State will be elected on Monday,
January9. Under Rule 9, it is necessary
that the election shall be held on the day
mentioned. 1t is understood that many of
the present division chairmen will be re-
elected, although there may be contests in
some of the districts
1t seems quite probable that State Sena-
tor George Ross will receive the support of
the Democratic members of the Legislature
as the Democratic candidate for United
States Senator, and that Representative
Walter q. Ritter, of Lycoming county, will
be the Democratic candidate for Speaker of
the House of Representatives During the
last session of the Legislature, Representa-
tive Ritter was chairman of the Democratic
House caucus.

Lingen, who was entertaining gentlemen at
the time, excused herself and walking to

what she wished.
''The Prince desires an introduction" re-
marked Mrs. Robinson with smile
Miss Won Lingen is an American and has
all natives pride. 'If the Prince wishes
an introduction, she replied, che can do

Later in the evening the Prince walked
over to Miss Won Lingen and was intro

APREMIER ATTACKED

BY Prominent Leader of Canadian Meth
odism-Sir John Thompson Denounced
sfOr His Alleged Leaning Toward the
Jesuits by Principal Douglass.
MONTREAL, Dec. 24.-The Witness to-
night publishes long interview with Rev.
Principal Douglass, of the Wesleyan Theo-
logical College here, IN which that we'll
known Methodist clergyman attacks Sir
John Thompson, the new Dominion Premier.
The Methodists constitute the largest
Protestant body in Canada. DR.. Douglass
says:
deeply regret the appointment of man
TO the first political office in the country
with such q record as that of Sir John
Thompson. From absolute da ia concerning
his antecedents, find but little to inspire
either admiration or or confidence in the
man, and this feeling is as widespread as
the Dominion In converse with men
from the ranks Of those who have
been Cabinet Ministers. both Con-
servative and Liberal, from the ranks
ofjurists up 60 those who wore spotless
ermine, from the ranks Of the great Papists
in Toronto and Montreal. from the ranks OF
such as are in touch with the political life
OF the country, from the ran ks Of the clergy
of every Protestant denomination, from per-
sonaI communication with citizens East
and West, Conservative and Liberal,
anu e4CcpI IlLcEcSbcu pOAAIA-
clans, find the concensus of
opinion adverse to the man, and an utter
distrust OF his Jesulstic spirit and policy, of
which the country will hear more anon. In
point OF fact, have never known a man
more utterly distrusted. ana whose advent
to power has created a more widespread,
though latent, hostility, despite the efforts
of partisan papers to trumpet his supposed
qualities anu claims.
After further emphasizing his sentiments
DR.. Douglas thus concludes:
We stand for the widest liberation, for
pence and good will to men. Among the
racial diversities of this country this can
only be made permanent by mutual for
bearance. To fiaunt principles which Sir
John Thompson has displayed in the face of
this country is not for peace, but for antag-
onism. We must have righteous, toler-
ant and true men US the eXpositors and
defenders of our laws. Righteous, human
laws are but echoes of the divine, only with
this difference-that they are dependent for
their effect upon righteous, human admins
tration. That administrator we do not be-
lieve to be Sir John Thompson. Remote
from all personal ambitions, remote from
the bitterness OF political partisanshiD or
personal enemies, we voice the sentiment
OF thousands when we express regret and
distrust at Sir John ThompsOn's advent to
power. We can only trust and believe it
shall not be for long.

They Think 1t a Disgrace to Die Naturally
Under 95.
NEW YORK, Dec. A-[SpecidL ]-Daniel
D. Hatfield to-day denied the report that he
is dead. He is between 30 and go years old
and says that 1t is regarded as disgrace in
the Hatfield family to die a natural death
under 95. This Hatfield family is the New
Jersey branch and the West Virginia Hat
fields are descendants of Matthias Heath
field, who came over from York
shire in 1860. Both branches are
fighters in the law courts,
if nowhere else. The Hatfield, whose death
gave rise to the report that Fighting Dan
Hatfield, of Railway, was no more, was also
named Daniel, and died at his home near
Fanwood, at the age of SO. He was not
feeling well, and fell down stairs, thus up
holding the family tradition that one Hat
field must die violent death before 1897
t'He was good for ten years, if this hadn t
happened" said the surviving Daniel He
lived in the old farmhouse years before the
Rebellion. His widow is q hale woman of
81, and he has three grown children, but no
grandchildren In tact, there were only a
few of the New Jersey Hatfelds left,
scarcely more than there are of the West
Virginia Hatfelds. Fighting Dan said to-
day that % or 80 years would see the last
of them. ....-r
