ing her completely. They were married
in Baltimore In July, 1872.
Mrs. McAuliffe charged her husband
with selling of her horses and carriages,
and with leading her merry dance gen.

At CAMP QUONSETT
First Night Spent Be-
meath the Canvas.
SMALL NUMBER IN CAMP.
Work For the Week Will Now Begin
in Earnest.

The Rhode Island Militia passed the
first night under canvas at Quonsett
Point In a very peaceful and uneventful
manner. The cavalry and artillery es-
capped the dust that they had to endure
last year on the trip to camp on account
of the recent rain.
The roads were In the best condition
possible and the boys enjoyed the ride,
although some of them will hate the sight
Of a horse before they arrive home.
At noon Battery A was drawn up on the
parade grounds and fired salute OF
twenty one guns while the Stars and
Stripes were run up to the top Of the flag
STAFF where they may be seen for miles.
There are two other flag STATS from which
the colors float.
The Machine Gun Battery was the first
to arrive In camp. Major Easterbr ooks Of
the First Regiment aud First Lieut.. Cat
chell, Adjutant of the First Battalion,
both OF this city, rode down with the
battery.
Battery A arrived at 80 o'clock and
the First Battalion OF Cavalry little lster.
The companies Of the 1st and Sd regiments
made tho trip by boat and enjoyed the
pleasant sail.
The hrst guard mount took place at
O'Clock In the afternoon. Lieut.. Col.
James FL. McGann, Sd Regiment Infantry,
was brigade officer OF the day.
During the afternoon both regiments
were out for battalion nrill and the only
disappointment so far is the small num-
ber Of men in camp.
A pair OF horses used by Battery A,
ha VI
down, breaking the pole OF tie carriage
and injuring one of the horses. Repairs
were Thade and the horse left at East
Greenwich!
Battalion drills OF both regiments took
place this afternoon with dress parade at
8 o'clock.
Owing to the storm last week the tents
were not all up when the Brigade arrived,
but the boys hustled around lively and to.
day everything Is In ship shape.
The camp has now got right down to
business which will be strictly attended
to during the week.

A Breezy Western Girl Writes Letter to
the Famous Speaker.
In the mail received few days since
Chauncey M. Depew found an amusing
letter from some unknown admirer. The
letter referred to tho report Of Mr.. Depew g
alleged engagement to an %, 600, 900 heir
ess which found publication last week.
Mr.. Depew denied the report, and this let.
ter refers to his denial. The missive is
written on fine linen paper and in a strong
feminine hand. The letter reads:
MY DEAR Mr.. DEpEw-I write to express my
pleasure at your announcement last Saturday
that you are not engaged. AS I have boldly
announced for a long time that had designs
upon you myself, 1t would have been some
what Of a disappointment had you been grasp
ed from me- as IL were, by tho young woman

opportunity, from a closer point Of view, to
see if admired your personality as much as

London last summer, but had announced my
somewhat alarming desire before that, so
please do not do anything decided in the way
of sentiment or convenance without giving me
some kind OF notice, for as there Is only one
Chauncey M. Depew I shall require some time
to readiust my ideas to another plane. With
thanks to you for the pleasure which fro.
Quently receive from your pointed remarks,
serious, comic and otherwise, am very sin
cerely -.
The letter is signed with dash and
comes from western town. The writer,
however, gives her address. Mr.. Depew
laughed heartily over the letter and said:
Sometimes people try to tell character
from handwriting. Judging from this
mean impartially and not as man who
has been flattered-I should soy that the
writer Is girl with q tendency for mis-.
chief, generous and impulsive. l feel hon

II get some very amusing letters some
times. One ] remember was from wom-
an In the west who wrote me that she was
passionately fond Of seashells She said
that she was so far away from the sea that
she pever got n chance to gather shells.
She suggested that as was so near the
shore might take some afternoon of and
60 down to tho seashore and gather her
some shells. Then there was girl who
wrote and wanted assistance In purchasing
bicycle. She solcmnly assured me that
she would not wear bloomers. There arc
many others, and sometimes I get requests
