Society Women to go as Nurses.

WASHINGTON, April 8.-Withint the
past few days, while the the war fever
has been rising higher every hour,
there has been a perceptible determi-
nation on the part Of society matrons
and maids to volunteer their services
as nurses in the event Of war. Should
it happen, as rumored will be the case,
that the two magnificent hotels at
Fort Monroe will, in the event Of war.
be seized as hospitals, the ardor Of
these volunteer nurses will be incrcas-
ed. Nothing will then keep them in
Washington.
The wife of an ex-Cabinet officer
now in Washington, has declared her
intention of becoming an army nurse.
The two daugters Of Bob" Evans
have sign;ied their intention Ct vol
untccriug as nurses.
Representative Wheeler of Alabama,
who almost at the first rumor of war,
went to the President and volunteered
in case of war, sees his martial and
patriotic spirit shown forth again in
his three pretty daughters, each Of
whom asserts that she will only be too
glad to go as nurse to the wounded
soldiers and sailors.
II the easo Of Commander Kobley
ID. Evans, history has within the past
week repeated itself. 1t will be re-
membered that a few days ago the
young son Of Commander Evans was
a member of the class graduated ahead
of time at the Annapolis Academy,
and Immediately assigned to duty on
the battleship Massachusetts,. Com
mander Evans was, during the late
war, graduated ahead of time aud at
once sent into active service.

Thirty Three Regiments or Regulars
Ordered South.

WASHINGTON, April 15.-Decidad-
u the most wariIke step taken by the
war department in preparing for the
possibility OF an encounter with Spain
was inaugurated when orders were is
sued for the concentration at four
points in the South of six regiments
of cavalry, twenty-five. regiments Of
infantry and the light batteries Of five
regiments Of artillery: at New Or
leans eight regiments Of infantry, at
Tampa seven regiments Of infantry
and at Mobile seven regiments Of in
fantry. Since the Civil War no such
proportion # che army has been mo-
bilized and The movement itself is the
best evidence OF the gravity of the
situation as looked upon by the Presi-
dent and his advisors.
The determination to rendezvous the
troops in the South where they can be
acclimated to the conditions of q mure
tropical climate has been under con-
sideration Of the President and his
cabinet for some time. 1t was not
until to-day, however, that the p-es;
dent in view Of the enormous expense
which will be eHtailed felt justified in

various railroads running South, par

Instructions to the commanding Of
ficers of the regiments ordered to move
were sent ont late to-day with dircc-
items to be put int effect as soon as
possible. 1t is the confident cxpec-
tation of the officials that the move
ments in some places will begin to-
morrow. The railroad facilities, the
officials say, are more than ample to
meet the demands of the occasion and
no trouble will be experienced in mo-

The People and the Legislature.

IL IS safe to assert that nine tentbs
OF the people of Delaware are dissatis.
fed and angry at tho Legislature which
's now IN session at Dover, doing
practically nothing beyond wasting
time aud the public money. The most
popular thing the Legislature could do
would be to adjourn sine die, without
further delay. The public interests
would suffer less through the failure az
important and needed legislation than
by the continued sessions of this most
prohigate and usless body of pretended
law makers.
