Atkinson will fire the opening gun of the

after Judge Atkinson they will probably
have Col Gambler make a-speech to open
up their campaign.

In our Sterling stock therekis one Cents

The War Department Scandal.
New York Evening Post

There are all sorts of reports as to the
attitude of the secretary of war and the
presidentregarding the shocking scandals
in the treatment of the sick and wounded
soldiers. Alger himself is quoted by one
reporter as saying that there will be no
investigation, so far as he Is concerned,
because there is nothing to investigate.
This is quite likely to be a correct YER
sion Of his views, for it is exactly what
was to have been expected But the man
most concerned In the matter is not the
secretary of war. 1t is the president,
who appointed Alger, and who still re-
tains him in office. Mr.. Mckinley should
understand that the rising storm of popu-
lar Indignation against the frightful
abuses that are daily disclosed will not
blow over if nothing is done. Here
is one sample illustration: Vermont fur
nlshed a regiment of volunteers, which
returned to the state few days ago after
an absence of ninety days, spent entirely
in camp in the south, and this is what
the Montpelier Waterman, republican
newspaper, says of the spectacle pre-
sented
The Vermont regiment Is at home,
and its condition seems to afford cumula-
tive evidence of the incompetency of the
department charged with the admnistra-
ton of the governments military affairs.
A hospital train, carrying over two hun
dred sick, about one-fourth OF the regi-
ment, whose condition and appearance
are CHASTITY reminders of the returning
victims of Libby prison, Belle Isle and
Andersonville during the civil war, from
a command that has never been to the
front, but has been continually In camp,
on the national domain, within the direct
circuit of railways, telegraphs and all
the agencies of supply and ministration,
in a country of unlimited resources-th
is a somewhat convincing proof of colos-
sal incompetency and inefIiciency in the
military administration of either the state
or the nation or both"

Kenovating velvet and Plush.

A simple method of cleaning velvet,
velveteen and plush is described in the
September Ladies' Home journal by
Emma NJ. Hooper. The rule applies to
all three kinds of goods, as all have a
pile which if flattened must be assisted
to rise again. With the assistance of q
stiff whisk broom, pan of boiling water
and an obliging friend who will brush
up the nap as you hold the goods taut
over the steam the wrong side to the
water, these materials will look like
new. This process removes wrinkles
brightens the color, and makes the
crushed nap stay up when brushed
against the grain and will answer for
black or colored pile fabrics. If the
velvet has grease spot on it remove il
with French chalk before steaming. A
sticky spot may be lightly touched with
clean cold water before the steaming
process

According to Admiral Schley's vivid
account of the battle of July 3, Cervera
owed his defeat, at least in part, to the
use of bituminOus coal on his vessels.
The bOckading squadron could not see
the ships themselves. because of the hills
that shut in the harbUr, but the clouds of
smoke from their furnaces rose above
the hills, and were easily seen from out
side. These were watched so closely by
the blockaders that, as the admiral said.
he ''cOuld know every time a shoyelful
of coal was thrown under the boiler"
When the final move was made, the fact
that the Spanish were coaling up was
reported to Admiral Schley an hour
before the ships moved, and when they
did move their course was distinctly
traced by the columns of smoke that
followed them down the channel. Ger
Yera's squadron could not have escaped
under any circumstances, but it might
have taken the watchers more by sur
prise had it used hard coal, and its ex-
perience should be guide in the furnish
ing of our own new vessels.-Public

The l2lst anniversary of the encamp-
ment of the army of Gen. Stark In Peru
when on his way to Join the American
army at Bennington, Aug. 6, l777,
was observed by the Stark Monument
association in the Union church in that
village Saturday evening. Robert Batch
elder, president of the association, presid-
ed. Several new members have been re-
ceived, among them being some of the
descendants of Gen. Stark Some plans
for the marker have been submitted, but
nothing definite has been decided upon
George X Davis OF Peru made a short
address on the objects of the meeting.
He thinks that most of the funds when
the marker is erected will have TO be fur
nished by sons of Peru who have left
their native town and gone out and
achieved success elsewhere. Interesting
addresses were made by United States
District Attorney j. l.. Batchelder of Ar
lingtOn, both of whom are much inter
ested in the project. There was dis
played in the church parlor number OF
old articles, large part of them being
over one hundred years old. When the
marker on this historical spot is erected

event that transplTed.
