The boy about whom this strange, true
story Is told wasted away till ne seemed
nothing bot skin and bones. Then his
health turned and ne became fat and hearty.
The first stage is familiar to many pa

parents or friends Of ailing little ones.
Fathers and mothers, who long to have
their children healthy and happy cannot
fail to sympathize and rejoice with MIR.
and MRS John F. Williams.
Their comfortable home, short distance

Of the wonderful events that are told in
words eloquent with simple truth and
gratitude, by the mother Of the boy.

the Honor-State War News.
Springfield. Ills. May 2s.-Belleville
has offered Governor Tanner the ST.
Clair county fair grounds free. IL the
new regiments are modified there.
Mount Carmel has rendered the use OF
the city park. and of the Opera House
for officers quarters, If Colonel James
r. Campbell's regiment is modified
there. Springfield wants the mobiliza-
tion but there is doubt If the state
board of agriculture will give the use
OF the fair grounds any longer. AS the
state troops took all the tents, Camp
Lincoln is also impracticable. Captain
Eben Swift, Of the Seventh United
States cavalry, now major of the Sew
enth Illinois infantry. will be lieutenant
colonel of the Tenth Illinois infantry,
Colonel Campbells regiment.
The Seventh regiment left Camp Tan
ner this morning via the Baltimore and
Ohio and Southwestern for Dunn Lor-
ing, Va. Colonel Young, Of the First
cavalry, has not been advised when his
transportation will arrive. The cavalry
will probably not leave before tomor-
row. Eight hundred riding trousers and
as many flannel shirts arrived yester-
day and were distributed TO the men.
Camp Eaton, Mich, May 2S.-Lieuten-
ant Governor Dunston arrived in camp
yesterday morning from Detroit. Cen
eral Irish came later in the day from
Kalamazoo. 1t is pretty well decided
that Irish is to be the first colonel un-
der the new call for volunteers. Pres
ident McKinley's second call necessi-
tated the reopening Of the war head
quarters at Detroit. Governor Pingree
and his aids have returned here to re-
main until the second Michigan quota
has gone.

field has stated that when he receives
orders to call out volunteers he will first
call on the remaining companies of the
Fourth regiment, with their officers, to
volunteer, and with this trained ma
terial as a nucleus will call for raw
material. The troops will be modified
at Camp Douglas. The governor takes
this action because these companies
were left out of the first call and also
because it will be necessary when there
are trained troops in the state 10 call
on them first. The field and staff Off
GERS Of the Fourth will remain as they
are now and will see service as united

REST on THE SECOND CALL.
Organization of the New Volunteers Post

poned for "a Week or More.
Washington, May 2S.-An important
phase of the military programme is a
decision not to take up the details of
organizing the new force of $4,000 vol
unteers for at least a week or ten days.
At the cabinet meeting yesterday ill.,
quiry was made of Secretary Alger as
to what steps he proposed taking on
the organization of this large addition
al force of volunteers. His reply was
that he had not even considered the
details of this question, and that his
plan was not TO take up the matter for
a week or ten days. In the meantime
no conclusion has been reached as to
whether a portion of the $4,000 volun-
teers will be used to recruit the regi-
ments still remaining untitled under the
first call for $4,000 volunteers.
If the regiments under the first call
are to be brought up to their maximum
strength IL will take about 40, 600 men
from the second call to complete the 125
regiments under the first call. This
will leave $4,000 men to be organized
in distinctly new regiments. 1t would
have the advantage of filling every regi-
ment in the service, instead of leaving
most OF them with a depleted organiZa-
ton. On the other hand il would de-
stroy the integrity Of this force Of %, 600
volunteers as second reserve. One
OF the main purposes OF issuing the sec
ond call was to establish a second re-
serve. made up of men who could be
drilled and equipped at leisure and
called upon some months hence, il cir
cumstances required.
(Btt if 10000 of them are put Al once
into Nhe regiments Of the first call they
will go TO the front with these early
regiments. and the second reserve will
be reduced to about $4,000 men or little
more than one army corps. The war
department is anxious to obtain the
views OF the governors of the states and
territories in regard to the filling TO
their maximum strength OF the regi-
ments already furnished by them under
the first call. and with this object in
view Adiutant General Corbin. at the
direction OF Secretary Alger, yesterday
sent kilograms asking the several gov
ernors TO make recommendations to the
APARTMENT on this subject.
w question arose yesterday as TO
vk.nher colored officers as well as col
ored troops would be taken as a part Of
the organizations offered. General AL
ger at once decided that If a colored
company had efficient soldierly colored
officers they were as much entitled to
recognition and acceptance in the mill
tary service as were the troops them
selves. He made this known in dis
patch 10 the governor Of Indiana, who
had asked for information. In this con-
nection Il developed that colored men
are being considered for some Of the

New York. May SO-When the United
States cruiser Columbia, in command OF
Captain Sands, anchored off Tompkns-
vile. 5. L., yesterday afternoon IL was
seen that she had a large Jagged hole
stove in her startboard side abreast OF
the mainmast. Above the water line
the hole extended about ten feet high
and six feet wide. Just how far below
the water line the cruiser was damaged
could not be ascertained, and none of
the naval officers would give any in
formation in regard 10 the accident. AS
soon as the vessel came TO anchor the
captain and crew, twenty-one in all, of
the British steamer Foscolia-which left
this port Saturday with a cargo Of ma
chinery and general merchandise for
Reimbursement ashore. Neither the
captain nor any of his crew would talk
when they landed, and all that could be
obtained from the officers of the Co
lumbia was that the two vessels had
collided and the Columbia had saved
the crew of theFoscolia.
Fog Thick Enough tn Cut.
Captain j. Evans. of the Foscolia, said
regarding the collision: THE Foscolia
cleared from this port at noon on Sat-
urday with a general cargo of about o.
200 tons. All went we'll until evening,
when a heavy fog set in. j was on the
bridge and ordered the lights up and
the fog whistle kept going AS the fog
grew denser the speed of the Foscolia
was reduced 10 one-half About o'clock
Lookout johnson, on the forecastle, and
Thompson, on the bridge, reported a
steamer on the port bow. Our lights
were burning brightly and the fog signal
was whistling. / looked up and saw a
big steamer with four tunnels dead
ahead. AS the steamers were not 200
yards apart l saw that a collision was
inevitable. l blew three Whistles and
the approaching vessel answered with
one blast.
Come Together with "a Crash.
THAT was the first time i heard the
Coumbia's whistle. | instantly ordered
our engines full speed astern. The YES
sells came together, however, with a
terrible crash, and the bow Of the Fos-
cola ran up on the cruisers armor
belt and then cut through her sponsor.

With hearts forever pure from stain Of strife

Who'll bear us where we'll praise forever more

Since Love will triumph even over Death,
Which brow shall first be chilled by his cold breath
