SECOND, GEORGIA FOR PORTO RICO
Regiment Now at Chickamauga Will
Be with Invasion.

ChiCkamauga Park, June N-(SpeCial.)-
The Second Georgia regiment will tear up
its newly established camp on Chickamau-
ga battlefield and leave for Porto Rico
before this week is closed, or present pros
poets count for naught.
The movement was expected to begin to-
night, but was delayed another day by
General Brooke, who is opposed to sending
the troops to Fernau0ina before the trans
ports are ready But this opposition will
not prevent the Porto Ricun expedition
from leaving here this week. Active prep
arationS are being made 10 get the men
away and trains Of empty coaches are here
for the troops.
The man of all men in the world who
would be most welcomed in the camp of the
First Georgia regiment is the paymaster
The BOYS have been in the service for near
ly two months and have not received one
cent of money for she time There is Il
fast growing howl ON the part of the Geor-
gians over the unnecessary delay. The
First Georgia is made up of men who sacri-
feed excellent positions "a join the army
and they feel that it IS shameful to be de
priVed of the little pittancc that IS due
them.
The First regiment was mustered into the
service of the United States over seven
weeks ago and properly they should have
been paid twice before this time, whereas
they have not seen one cent for their war
services.
Fortunately nearly all of the members of
the regiment have wcll-to-do families VINO
have sent them money and none of them
have been absolutely pcnniess. Still they
are desperately anxious TO get their pay and
they have been clamorin% for II for some
time At present there is no prospect Of
an carly visit OF the paymastcr It Will
probably be after the list OF next month

the silver. Having found the differ
ence between the two masses of pure
gold and silver, in certain known
proportions, he was able to compute
the real quantity of each metal in

Coming down now to our own
time, the account of the discovery of
saccharinc, one of tho numerous by
products of the gasmakcr's refuse,
whose sweetness is three hundred
times more intense than that of cane
sugar, reads almost like romance.
DIR. Fahlberg had entered the Johns
Hopkins University in America in
order to devote himself exclusively
to study of tho chemistry of coal
tar derivatives. Some, months had
passed, when one evening at tea time
he detected an intensely sweet flavor
upon his bread and butter. lie
traced the sweetness to his inpers,
to his hands, and to his coat sleeves :;
and it dawned upon him that it must
have been derived from one of the
new compounds which he had that
day succeeded in producing. lie
promptly returned to his laboratory
and tasted the contents of every YES
sci with which he had been working.
His idea was correct. One of his
bcakers contained the sweet material.
Prof. Roentgen came upon his

sort of cloth. A strong electric cur
rent was passed through it, while
close by was some prepared photo

day he noticed several lines on this
paper for which he could not ac-
count. by restoring everything to
exactly the same condition as on the
preceding day, he was able to asccr-

It appeared in the form Of rec pimples
which would tester, break open and run

they would break out again. They caused
intense itching and the little sufferer had
to be watched continually to keep him

only medicine which had helpd her was
