COVERED WITH WHITE TENTS.


CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. April l6 The
Widow Glen field in the Chickamauga
park is covered with the white tents OF
the Twenty-ffth infantry, which
reached there at ten o'clock yesterday
morning. The camp was named Camp
Boynton.
At four o'clock guard was mounted
and the camp was running under the
regular military routine as though II
had been there for five years Inc
fact that several regiments OF cavalry
were to come to the park TO keep them
company was very agreeable to the
officers and men of the regiment Tor
they were beginning to fear tha'
they would be left alone. and after
coming this distance they might be or
dered to some other post to remain IN
active. The increased signs of war
pleased the men nightly. and they
laughed and shouted whenever 1t was
intimated that they might before long
be moving further south to take parl
in active campaigning. There never
was a regiment in better heart or more
anxious to have a chance at the span
iards than the Twenty-fifth.
