Chickamauga. Ga. June 19.-To-day
was an exceptionally beautiful day mt
Camp Thomas, and Il cool breeze con
tinuously nstir. made park life de-
light.
1t was significantly day of rest
among the soldiers All drills were
omitted and the Sabbath was generally
observed. In this respect. the day was
somewhat In contrast with many Of It's
predecessors. The chaplains Of the VA.
riOus regiments held services and the
\. NJ. G. A. and evangelical cohorts
were actively at work. The reverence
with which these services were listened
to and the general good order which
prevailed among the camps were sig
nihcant OF high moral tone which
pervades the entire army.
The soldiers were forbidden to con
gregate at points OF amusement and
practically all remained In camp. with
the exception Of some who had perrnis
sion to spend the day on Lookout
mountain.
The effort of General Boynton and
the Georgia authorities to restore order
at Lytle and rid the outskirts Of gam
bling houses has been productive of
good results. At Lytle to-day all su.
looms and gambling houses were her.
metically sealed.
Six hundred recruits for various reg
iments arrived during the day. making
total for three days of nearly 1900
Until the 1900 more have reached the
park the daily arrivals promise to in
crease rapidly. Prominent among to-
days arrivals were the following:
Brigadier General Peter G. Hayes
Third division, First army corps; Brig
adler General ]. P. Sanger. Sixth army
corps, under General Wilson; Major
Clayton Parkhill. United States chief
surgeon. First division. First army
corps. Major Parkhill had been as
signed as surgeon in General Merritt's
camp and was to have gone to Manila.

Washington, June 1a-The original
plans Of the campaign Of the war
against Spain will be adhered to, and
will be pushed with vigOr. That de-
cislon was reached at a war council
to-day. At which were present Presl-
dent Mckinley, Secretaries Alger and
Long. General Miles, Assistant Secre-
tary Meikeljohn. Admiral Sicard and
Captain Mahan.
OF course there will be some slight
notifications made necessary by the
changes that have occurred since the
beginning Of hostilities, but these, after
all, will not affest the general plan Of
from Florida with store Of inf0rma-
ton respecting the condition Of the
troops, difficulties to be explained in
progress Of the campaign and the mat
ter of transportation and terminal fa-
cilities will be freely availed Of to cor
rect the defects In the present system.
The stories that there has been fric-
tion between General Miles and his of
fetal superiors are pronounced to be
absurd, and to-day the proceedings
gave ample evidence OF the fact that
the utmost harmony characterizes the
relations between the chief executive
and the military branch of the gov,
ernment.
The official declaration that the cam
paign is to he pushed with vigor does
not necessarily mean an immediate at
tack upon Havana. although such ad-
vice has been rendered. II does mean
that the very best efforts are to be put
forth to put the army In condition
where It can be used with overwhelm
ing effect at any point. Mt almost n
moments notice. To this end the
troops now in camp are to be thorough
ly trained and hardened. With such
an army at command. numbering no
less than 100000. the fate Of Havann
cannot long remain In doubt when once
the army In hurled upon 1t.
Meanwhile. the smaller expedition

interrupted. When Santiago Ia cap

All Letter books and memoranda

HARRY HARRIS VOYAGE.
A Periious and Disastrous Trip Over n
Sea of Oysters.

Harry $. Harl. the express messenger

is heartily sick of oysters and he VIII

mas dinner to-day. Harry Is not a fel-
low whose temper Is easily disturbed.
He has had many years Of experience
in the express business. and he has had
many Christmas rushes. He has gone
through them all without "A falter. but
this year he Is pretty well sick OF
Christmas express business. Not so
much ordinary Christmas express busi-
ness. but of oysters-bah!t oysters; the
disgusting things.
And Il all came about this way. Harry
received n car jammed. full
of natter from the next messenger east.
The car was crowded. n about half
the floor space was taken up with half
barrels of fresh oysters. These casks
or tubs have no cover to them. and
therefore no packages can be placed on
top. The space above the oyster tubs
Is waste matter, so to speak. Having
so much express matter. Harry had to
| make shift and utilize all the space pos
sible. He crammed packages down be-
tween the casks. and In finding these
parcels when he wanted to put them
of at their destination, Harry had to
get over the oyster tubs.
Now the oyster tubs have mighty mar

good deal.when they s-are walked on.
But what could Harry do? He had to
get at those packages. He had made
the voyage over the sea OF oysters sue
cessfully half a dozen times and began
to think that he was a pretty warm
thing as an oyster-tub walker With
each succeeding trip he gained more
confidence until at last ne skinned
over the wobbly rims with the grace of
a gaZelle.
But there Is always one voyage In
every ~navigator's perilous life that Is
disastrous. and 80 1t was with Harry.
He "A occasion to go for a package on
the other side Of the oyster ocean and
he started on the trip. He had nearly
reached port when the engineer sud
denly applied the air brake and the
train brought up with n jerk. II IL had
been a mild jerk Harry would not nave
cared. hut "A jerk like that-why. any
body would lose his balance. Harry
staggered a second. he clutched the air
with both hands, and he shouted Man
overheard" IL awaited him naught.
one foot went of the rim and into the
oyster deep. The other foot followed.
and then the engineer started up sud
denly and Harry bent double and ram
med his arms into the tub in front of

He was rescued from the Shiny deep
and when ne emerged all that was nee
essary for an oyster stew was to add "A
