SOLDIERS WANT TO GO HOME.
Touching appeal by a West Virginia
Private Dependent Families Suffer-
ing for Necessities.

A private in the Second West Vir-
ginia volunteer infantry, now at
Camp Meade, Pa, has written the fol-
lowing:
We, the brave volunteers, who left
our happy homes, sacrificing good po-
sitions, leaving heartbroken mothers
and fathers TO go and fight for our
country and to help to keep our flag
floating in the hand of victory, most
earnestly desire to be given a chance
to return to our families and give
them the necessaries of life, OF which
they stand so much in need. We Joined
the United States army with the ex-
pectation of fighting, and God is our
judge If we are not willing to fight as
long as there is any fighting to do.
But now peace is fixed and war is a
thing of the past. How can volun-
teers be held for GARRISON duty when
there are so many who are so badly
needed at home? There are many am
young men who wish to go and garri-
son our new possessions, and will do
it if they are given a chance to do so.
So let those go who are being called
by a dead voice to come home and pro-
tect motherless children or take care
of some helpless old father and moth
er. We are unable to express our de-
sire to our government owing TO our SUI
perior officers. They threaten to
court martial any one who expresses
wishes. OF course. we can't censure
them, for they are making money.
We are losing not only our earthly
possessions, but numbering by piece
meal those who are depending upon
us at home. The mail comes to us
daily To some it is a pleasure, but to
many it is only cut in the old
wound and another sting in their ach-
ing hearts, caused by the rleadings
of loved ones at home, who SO badly
need our aid in supporting our fami-
lies. Now, if we can obtain the great
favor we ask, our army will be com
posed of brave young single men and
not a crowd of weary souls who
mourn for the privilege of supporting
their families. .

A Great geological Garden.

The Geological Society of New York
propose to construct what will proba-
bly, be the finest geological garden in
the world in Bronx Park, New York,
and under the direction Of the executive
committee the plans are being fully
elaborated. The society expects to
open the garden to the public in sat
isfactory way on May 1st, 1899. While
the work is progressing with all due
rapidity and zeal, the old and well
approved plan of relieving biliousness
and constipation through the benefi-
cent agency of Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters finds general recognition. This
excellent medicine is a safeguard
against malaria and rheumatism, and
removes Indigestion aud nervousness.
1t inyigorates the system through the
medium of improved digestion and
appetite, fortifies it against disease
and counteracts the effects of over
work, mental or physical. A wine
glass before retiring engenders health
yielding and strengthening sleep.
Let it have the persistent and system
attic trial that it deserves.

DR.. G. M. Joseph by virtue of
being a surgeon of the National Guard
of the state has been called to Charles
ton to examine a lot Of officers for
the organization which is to be put
into effective shape at once. The
old guard is a thing of the past and
went out of being practically when
the first regiment was taken into the
service of the United States. There
are few companies scattered over the
state but the guard will have to be
practically made over again before it
is placed on a sure foundation.
The preliminary steps are being Ia
men has been designated as officers
and they will have to pass medical
and mental examinations before they
are given commissions. 1t is to ex-
anime these men that DR.. Joseph and
the other surgeons of the guard have
been summoned to the capital by the
governor and Adjutant General.
The officers and men of the old
guard were given honorable dischar-
ges from the organization when they
were accepted by the United States
and this move made some of them
very mad. They wanted to take
their places when they returned from
the war and the country no longer
needed them. The move that was
taken by the state government will
preclude this however. When the
officers and men come back they will
find new guard in their shoes and
new things will have taken the place
of the old
G. w. Curtin will be one of the big
guns in the new guard having been
given commission by the governor
some time ago. Where the other
companies that are needed may be To-
Gated has not yet been given out but
Morgantown may get chance to get
one if she wants it. The matter will
be called to the attention Of the au-
thorities and they will be asked to
give permission to enlist company
here How successful the move will
be will be seen when it is tried.
There is no question that the very
best company in the state could be
raised here if any were obtained.
That ought to be sufficient induce
ment to get many young men to join.
In being a member of the crack organ
ization of the state every one who
would join would have d proud posi-
ton. OF course what success will
attend the efforts of the people who
will urge the claims of Morgantown
to beheard and the other things which
willfollow in its train must wait for
time to develope before they are known.
All the pressure possible will be
brought on the authorities to get them
to do the town right.
