Special to the Scranton Tribune.

Special TO the scranton Tribune,
Camp Meade. Middletown, Pa, Sept.
2s-The storm which broke so suddenly
over camp late Monday afternoon, and
with a force which was as terrific as it
was unprecedented for this time of year.

in the appearance OF camp. Without
any apparent cause or high tempera-
ture the sky began to darken by de-
grees, and at 4 o'clock it was black
as night. An ordinary rain storm was
expected. and the men sought their
tents. Quick flashes of lightning would
cleave the heavens; the artillery of
the Almighty thundered and crashed
with a deafening sound, and then the
rain began to come down with terrific
force
The canvas stretched and creaked
and groaned beneath the force Of the
rain and the wind. The storm pre-
sented a magnificent spectacle, and
the sublimity of the scene was intensi-
fled by the fact that every bolt of light
ming seemed to pass right over ones
head. to dazzle the eyes, and to strike
close by--all to be followed instantly
by a sound Of thunder which shook the
very earth. The raised position of most
OF the troops on the hills and the pres
ence of so much steel added not a little
10 the realism OF the scene. In sever
al instances the boys Of the Thirteenth

er. Hewitt and Crook and Lieutenant

will without doubt create great en-
thusiasm along the entire route of pa
rade. General Joseph Wheeler, the IA
nous cavalry leader, will not be
member of the staff, but will be as
signed to the command of the cavalry
division which is one of the most inn
portant and most conspicuous positions
in the line. He will be easy to single
out, and will be rendered a fitting ova-
ton.
There will be a good sprirkling of
members of both branches of congress,
and a number of governors and other
distinguished officials. The remainder
will be men who have attained high
positions in the Knight Templar fra
ternity.

A project is on foot to unite the Con-
gregational society OF Guildhall with a
mission field in GrovetOn, n. H. This
would give the society in both places
the opportunity of keeping a good man
longer and should give the pastor much
better support. Country towns OF this
size cannot support two preachers with
out their being underted and pinched.
The union oftwo fields under one pastor,
or three fields under two pastors is the
only solution of difficult problem.
