NO CHAPLAINs NEEDED NOW
Senator Proctor's Reply to an Offer
From Vermont

1t is safe to say that no man in Burling-
ton or in any other town is more intensely
interested in our present conflict with Spain
or more hopeful that glorious success may
speedily crown our efforts in behalf of lib
erty and humanity than is the Right Rev.
John S. Michaud. Roman Catholic Coadju-
tor Bishop of Burlington. Recently he
wrote to Senator Proctor, saying: II have
been thinking for some time to offer one of
our priests to the service of the army and
navy as chaplain. A bright. healthy and
exemplary young priest is willing and glad
to go. He was born here in Burlington. 1
leave the offer in your hands as knowing
how to look after Vermont matters and in
terests. May God bless our country and its
rulers"
Senator Proctor's reply reads:
United States Senate.
Washington, D. c., May IA, 1898.
Reverend and Dear Sir: have received
your letter.. and went at once to the secre-
tary of the navy. He says no chaplains
have been appointed yet for the additional
force of the navy, and he doubts If there
will be. There will be no vacancy in the
regular force by natural order until next
fall, but 1 think chaplains may be and
probably will be appointed unless the war
closes very soon. l have filed your letter,
with recommendation of my own, with
the secretary. The condition is the same in
the army No additional chapains are pro-
vided for the regular forces. the states pro-
viding chaplains for the volunteers. I
think it proper and right that your church
should have it's full share in army and
navy and will be glad to do anything to tina t
end. got very well acquainted with Chap
lain Chadwick of the Maine at Havana. He
is an excellent and very useful man. Very
truly yours, REDFIELD PROCTOR.
The Right Rev. John S. Michaud.

Battery d seems to be getting the best of
1t in every way. At guard mount every
afternoon two orderlies, one for Major
Hess and one for Major Rice, are selected.
The selection is made for neatness and ef-
ficiency, and Battery D has captured at
least one orderly for twenty-eight consecu-
tive days. We are very proud of the record,
especially In view of the fact that when
decision cannot be effected by considering
neatness of appearance, the best are taken
to the front of the guard and spelled down"
on the manual of arms. In the selection of
orderies the regulars and volunteers are on
the same footing, and it is certainly very
creditable for a man of six weeks training
to be taken in preference to one who has
seen years of service.
Good Fare
All our commissary supplies are now OBJ
ta.ned through the post instead Of the de-
partment commissary, and in consequence
We are regaled with fresh meat instead of
bacon and salt pork. We also get fresh
vegetables, so are living in comparatively
fine style. The arrangement will probably
continue until we leave San Francisco, but
there is no telling what We will get after
that and no one seems to care as long az
there is plenty.
Notes
1t is generally understood. that most of
the troops now at Camp Richmond will be
removed to the Preside in a day or so. At
present the artillery camp is the only one
on the grounds; the cavalry is here, but
they occupy the barracks, so the city of
tents has dwindled to very small proper
tions. The Sixth California volunteer III
fantry, which has been next door to us

The afternoon battalion drill has be eer
dispensed with and instead the battery is
indulsing in sk.rmish drill on the hillsides
OF course as artillery we will have no actual
skirmish fighting to do, but there is no tel.-
ing what We may be called upon to do be-
fore we finally get located with big guns.

ing for the paymaster's wagon when he
drove up was the most enthusiastic yet
given. The six batteries, over one thous-

caused good feeling on the part of every
one. Each man received s2756 for June and

JUDGE oGDENS NEW LAW
AN EQUITABLE DEGREE THAT
 PROTECTS A BABY.
Angie Fosters Marriage to Young Church Annul,ed-Both Were Attending School and
 Eloped.
Oakland Office San Francisco Call,
 Rroodrrrnrr Ian 9

SU6 BrOaQWay, DeC. ..
 The tugboat marriage of the two chil- dren Albert T. Church and Angie Foster, was annulled by Judge Ogden to-day. The original suit brought by Mrs. Church declaring the alleged marriage to be null and void was dismissed yeterday and she was appointed guardian of her son. To- day a new suit was tried in which the marriage was recognized as such and the petition for it's annulment was granted by Judge Ogden.
 The cause of all these proceedings is the future of a child one year old. Its standing in society involved a point of law which has never been determined and which may probably not be finally settled until in future years the baby may be called on to inherit property.
 The children, who were High School students, eloped on the 18th of April last year and were married outside the Heads. The husband was then few months over l6 and the girl not quite Is. After their marriage they went to Honolulu and at tempted to support themselves, but this proved a failure and they came back to Oakland, where the mothers blessing leave his child wife. He accepted the offer and little later was sent to Bos- ton to complete his education, and is still there.
 Mrs. Angie Church has since resided with her mother and now has the cus- tody of the child. In court to-day, after Judge Ogden had annulled the marriage the attorneys held an argument over the sections of the Civil Code governing the questions of the legitimacy of the chil- dren of annulled marriages. They de- sired to enter into a stipulation, but the Judge stated that the only stipulation could be made between the child's par ents,. and he advised that in drawing uI the decree they arrive at an understand ing which will protect the baby in the event of any inheritance that may come to it.
 The young husbands mother objected to doing anything that would substan- ttate the legitimacy of the infant but after some conversation her objections were somewhat modified, and unless the decree shall be satisfactory to Judge Og- den in regard to the infant, it will cer- tainly not meet with his approval, for he plainly stated that the little child must, be protected and that the court would not countenance any ultimate proceeding that did not provide for the establishment of the innocent little par tvs rights.
 Mrs. Church declared to-day that her son is exactly IS years months and 23 days old at this time. Consequently, if he wishes, he is at liberty to come back and marry the mother of his child

These exhibits have been handled in the meteorological laboratory, and thousands have viewed the results through powerful microscopes.
 The directors of the exposition are we'll pleased with the results of their efforts. A little speech-making brought the big show to close.
