FROM oHIcKAMAUGA PARK.
Letter From Sergeant Major Deming oi
 This City.

AAVts0A DcuthhS uh
 This City.
 Following is an extract from letter written by Charles w. Demnig ser geant major of the Fourteenth Minne- sota, now Chickamauga Park, son of George s. Deming, field secretary of the Connecticut Sunday school associa- ton, So much Is said in the papers regarding the poor way in which our soldier boys are fed that it Is re- freshing to look on the other side of the picture.
 We have received our full rations so that you can see we are well fed. Our food has been good with the exception of bacon, which has been very poor quality. The beef, however, has been very fresh and tender. The bread is all baked at the headquarters bakery and is fine in quality. The delay in deliv- crying letters I presume was at the | park, as they have been greatly han dicapped for room and conveniences. | The government is now erecting a large postoffice building and we shall have good mail service in a short time. Each regiment has it's own post al clerk, who is excused from all drills and attends to the sending and deliv- ering of the mails which are received twice a day, In our regiment the sol dier brings less than sackful of letters and papers. Many of the boys are in- clined to be jealous of the regimental postmaster because he has chance tc ride a mule twice a day to the station and back. It is quite a treat to ride around the park"
 The following is the government ra- tions of food, etc, for each man daily | Potatoes, 12 4-5 oz, onions 3 1-5 oz., oi 16 oz. potatoes; potatoes, Il 1-5 oz,, to. matoes, 4-5 oz., or 16 oz potatoes beans, 3 2-5 oz., or in lieu of beans, any one of the following: Rice, peas, hom- l iny. Coffee, green, 3-5 oz.: roasted 7-25 oz. Sugar, 2-5 OF. Vinegar S-25 of gill. Salt, 1925 oz. Pepper. t-2I oz. Soap, 1925 oz. Candles, 625 oz Beef, 1A or 70 per cent beef. Bacon, aI or 30 per cent. bacon or pork. Bread 1-2 oz Hard bread, 1 OF.

STAGE FULL OF CHILDREN.
Mammoth Patriotic Entertainment By
 Pupils of St. Johns School


 Mammoth Patriotic Entertainment By
 Pupils of St. Johns School.
 The Wonderland theater was filled with the bright pupils of St. Johns parochial school at rehearsal yester- day afternoon for their entertainment which will be given on Wednesday evening at 7:3O o'clock and on Thurs day afternoon at 2:30 o'clock.
 Several months ago Manager Poli told Father Coyle, pastor of the church, that the theater was at his disposal free of charge whenever the pupils were ready to rehearse and perform. Work was immediately commenced by the sisters and their efforts have resulted in the most f1attering success.
 The children were carefully drilled in the school and yesterday they had a stage rehearsal. It was really a smooth performance, for when re- porter of the Courier visited the rehear- sal he was surprised at the excellent character of the programme and the ability of the children.
 It will be a timely and patriotic en- tertainment for a tableaux, chorus and drill. The war time sentiment has been favored by the introduction of ap- propriate songs and drills This is es- pecially true in the scene, which pre- sents sents the St. Johns cadets in their new uniforms and their excellent drill. The girls are by no means backward as patriots and depict in tableaux and song many spirited themes.
 The instrumental performances on piano, mandolin and violin are also ex- cellent In fact the parents of St. Johns parish should feel very proud of the children, and with their friends give them two rousing big houses.
