Barre evening telegram. (Barre, Vt.) 1898-19??, 1898-09-01
Military COURAGE,

The question of the comparative pro.
portion of really brave men in any army
will probably never be determined
Great officers ON the continent keep
their knowledge on that subject rigor-
ously as a professional secret and as.
sumo as certainty that all soldiers are
brave. They know very we'll, however,
that they are not, and when confiden.
tial will admit, as Marshal Won Moltke
once did in public, that with great
number it takes discipline, and severe
discipline, too, to induce them to face
shells unshrinkingly. American officers
have been known to acknowledge that
of their men, who are as brave as any
in the world, 20 per cent would run
away if they could, and in every army,
even ours, which q man enters only of
free will, there is a certain proportion
who literally cannot overcome their
fears. They are stricken with a sort of
paralysis. The proportion is probably
not high in any army, the majority, if
in health, being able to do their duty
and having intense motives to do it, but
neither is the proportion high of those
who literally feel no fear.-London
Spectator.

took shelter on her, while others sought
refuge at the quarantine station.
The Olivette went down in about 30
feet of water her main deck being sub

the calamity could have occurred, and
as no investigation has yet been made
the matter remains a mystery. Vessels

cort lady home. She was also stran-
ger in the city and was stopping with
como friends on Bourbon street, about
three blocks the other side of the opera
house. AS it was only short distance
we decided to walk was of course
totally unacquainted with the street
and when we left the lights of the opera
house felt very much at sea. The
houses were dark and I could not see
the numbers, and it was only by the
number that the lady could identify her
boarding place, as she had only been
there once.
"Ahead of me was small man. l
asked him If he knew where the mum.
Der was. He answered very politely
that he did not, but was going that way
and would help me hunt. He told an
other man in front of him about it, and
that man told some of his friends. In q
few minutes the gentlemen had formed
an advance guard in our interest. We
walked calmly behind while they went
in front, OH either side Of the street,
striking matches and looking for the
number. There were eight of them, and
their matches would go off one after the
other. 1t was regular flambeau parade.
I was overcome. Here it is, shouted
an advance scout
"We approached the house rapidly
and found tho eight gentlemen standing
before it. 1t was almost with emotion
that I raised my hat and thanked them
for their efforts. Nothing at all, they
said politely, and the entire eight raised
their hats and walked into the dark

With tho announcement that four

be complete. This will be the first
time that our streets were ever trod by
any except our own company. There
will be bands Of music from every cor
ner Of this old state. There will be every
kind of float that genius and money
can design. There will be horribles of

cieties will be out in full uniform. If

US good weather, then the managers of

will not forget to do full honor to the
boys next Wednesday. Various esti-
mates are given to the number of visit
ors which gather along our streets and
in the park. One says thirty, another
twenty and still another one puts it at
twenty-five thousand. However no
matter the size of the crowd Barre will
be equal to the occasion, and give these
people who shall come TO witness our
reception to the four companies, the
most royal entertainment. The various
have worked night and day
to make it the grandest day Vermont

Camp Wikoff, Sept. 1.-President Nc
Kinley has made a sudden change OF
plan and will not visit the camp this
week, nor will Secretary Alger. A dis
patch from Adjutant General Corbin
informed General Wheeler of the post
ponement of the trip, and preparations
for the expected visit on Friday or Sun
day were stopped. The causes for this
change of plan are not known in camp,
nor would any Of the officials talk Of
the matter.

Their have arrived from Santiago with

board. Only three or four more trans
ports are expected. One Is the City Of
Mexico. with General Shafter and his
staff. She may not arrive before Fl iday
next.
Active steps to muster out the rough
riders were begun when Major Brown,
a mastering officer, arrived in the camp
to make out list Of government prop
erty and to begin a medical examina-
ton of the men, so that a record may
be kept for use in case of future appli-
cation for pensions.
Colonel Roosevelt has not entirely
given UP his plan for parade in New
York. He says that il there is to be
one. 1t will be next Monday and that in
such an event the regiment will leave
camp Saturday and remain in New
York overnight, parading and being
mustered out the next day.
At last an investigation of the condi-
ton of this camp has been ordered.
There is not an officer in the place but
will admit that such an investigation
Is sorely needed. Some, who have the
courage OF their conv.c,ion., are wilma

consequences. These are men like DR..
