The Columbian. [volume] (Bloomsburg, Pa.) 1866-1910, 1898-08-18

Uncle Sans bill for his 10000 SOL
diers is ever $4,000 q day. and if the
Wal keeps UP to! a year it will reach
the file figure OF $i5,000,000. The old
fellow is feeding more soldiers than
there are people IN Jersey City or New
ark; more ihan the total population of
Colorado or West Virginia. This. of
course. doesn't take into account the
thousands of men employed as civil
ians by the War Department, or util-
ICED by it in transporting and issuing
the food. Many of these men, too. are
fed b. the Government
BY buying in large quantities. the
cost of the army ration is brought
down to eighteen cents a day. which
is about as cheap in price and a great
deal better in quality than the ration
of the Bowery lodging house. Then.
to the eighteen cents is to be added
four cents for the transportation and
issuing Of the food. This, of itself, for
year, would cost s2,715,60O.
The army rations for one day FOR
this vast body of soldiers amounts to
605,S95 pounds, or nearly 303 tons. For
year the enormous total would be re-
quired of 221 Il ,675 pounds, or over
110,575 tons, which means that ton
of rations costs S135. In the army ra-
tion are dozen constituents-bacon,
hard bread (Which is hard tack, or
crackers, six inches in diameter),
beans, potatoes, coffee, sugar, molasses,
vinegar, salt, soap, candles and black
pepper. This ration is about a third
less in quantity than that served by
the State of New York to its soldiers.
Notwithstanding, there is such an ex-
cess in the quantity of the Govern
ment ration that by drawing a commu-
tation of rations in money. other kinds
of food can be bought according to the
needs or the taste of the individual
companies.
A regiment. including only the SOL
diers, eats more than ton and a half
of food a day. In measure Of weight
this seems a good deal, but when the
cost is considered. 1t is r1diculously
small-six cents a meal for three
square meals a day. or about $3.50 for
an entire regiment
Every day the army consumes SO
tons. Any butcher can tell how many
hogs 1t takes to turn out this item in
the ration.
A pound Of hard bread or hard tack
and pound OF potatoes go to each
soldier once day. A years consump-
tion Of potatoes would be 1.13l 500
bushels. The whole army eats SO tons
of each q day. Beans are highly nu-
tritious, more so, in fact, than pota-
toes, and SO tons, baked and in soup,
are consumed by the army every day
Butter is not part of the ration. but
sugar Is, and Of the sweet seasoning as
much is supplied as of beans.
The army recognizes but two stimu-
lants-coffee and tobacco. Tobacco is
not part Of the ration, but the Gov
ernment supplies it at cost. The cof-
fee, IL well made and served hot. will
go as far as any article of food to-
ward cheering up the soldier in the
early morning. and before going on
guard at night. as well as when COM
ing off his post Each day the army
uses tcns oe coffee. and in the course
of year. 2,715 tons. Sugar, but no
milk, goes with the coffee, though
milk. like butter. and other articles
called luxuries. can be had through
the process OF Communication of rations

The Reporter In Heaven.

Death sprung his watchman's rattle,
And called a reporter hence.
After long. hard battle
With life and its stern events
He had furnished miles of copy,
Had written with skill and grace,
But he finished his last assignment
In less than stick of space.
The editor wrote the notice,
Commended his faithful aide.
And said: We shall miss him sorely
From the staff of the Golden Blade "
Then everybody forgot him
But few whose love was great,
And the soul of the tired reporter
Had gone to its last estate
He had helped the poor and needy.
By telling their tales of grief:
He had scored oppression greedy,
And carried a noble sheaf
OF words and works for others.
And Peter said: Enter in,
You have blessed your suffering brothers,
In a world OF tears and sim.
But to hurry along the story,
They gave him crown and Tyre,
And beautiful seat in glory,
AS fine as he could desire:
And he heard a chorus better
Than he ever heard in time,
And poets recited verses,
Diviner than human rhyme.
The fountains sang, and the river
Was dianiond-rainbow stream:
And the rested, glad reporter,
HAN feared II was all a dream,
But it didn't end. and after
A week of delight or more,
And talk with Grant and Lincoln
And interview chats galore
Inspired by the grand historic,
And splendid assemblage there,
Obeying the olden impulse,
He turned to the records. where
blank the reporter severed.
And he wrote with a jeweled pen
superb account of his meeting
With the wonderful souls of men,
But. of course, he couldn't send it,
Wire, telephone, or express,
And there isn't mail from heaven
To picture its loneliness.
The recording angel missing
The leaf, made q great ado.
But at length engaged the reporter
As his deputy writer new.
Though there isn't a daily paper
Or a news stand in the sky
Yet whatever is happening earthward,
Will be published by and by.
And the Golden Blade" reporter,
Is helping to fill the sheet
That will be the summing issue
OF Times Last Review complete

Leader.

Truth and Grammar.

When the winters nearly over.
And the spring is nearly here,
When the bud upon the ma9le
Tells the blossom of the year,
There's a holiday approaches
That we celebrate with glee
AS the birthday of a laddie
Who removed q cherry tree.
And who. when his father questioned
Nobly answered. with sigh,
Yes, papa, l know who did it:
To be truthful. Il was l.
Which was better than if George
Had replied. as you will see,
Yes, papa, | know who done it:
To be truthful. it was me-
Then the father proudly answered
My forgiveness you have won.
Few indeed there are as worthy
AS my little Washington.
Few so brave and cool in danger,
Glory waits for such as he
Boys who stick to truth and grammar
When they've cut cherry tree"
Now, when winter days are passing
And the spring is nearly here,
When the bud u3on the maple
Tells the blossoms of the year.
We rejoice upon the birthday
OF the noble laddie who
Could remember to be truthful
And could stick to grammar, too

A goodly number of people gathered

male quartet
j. H. Lawrence, President of the as
ISOLATION, called on Rev. r. J. john
ston of the Westminster Presbyterian

city and the local association.
Rev. Mr. Banks. in his usual genial
manner. gave the visitor the heartiest

speaking Of the great benefit the Sac
ramento association, even in its ham
pered and unaided condition, had been
to the community His words were
heartily applauded.
Mr. Willis then introduced his re-
marks by telling several anecdotes. He
said the association developed the idea
of fellowship in all of its work. and he
illustrated the length and breadth of
the work by some telling figures and
Citations on the Pacific Coast many men
who had come from the association of
which he is General Secretary.

difficulty many of these associations
We're having to get sufficient financial
support, and said that no association
could do good work without liberal
support from the business men. He
said ne never begged money for the
Y NJ. C. A, but gave men the privilege
of assisting so noble a work as making
it possible for young man away from
home, or without a pleasant home
of his own, to have the right kind of
a place to go to.
He further said that the General Sec
rotary was not and ought not to be
the whole association, but that every
member should consider that he owns
a part of it and is responsible for his
part. He urged the members of the
Sacramento association to get one new
member for each day during the next
three months. and assured them that
if they did so it would inspire others
TO give to the work.
Mr.. Willis address was filed with
"reminiscences and witticisms that kept
his audience in the best of humor

his clear, sonorous voice. two choice
songs which stirred the hearts of all

let me call your attention to one fact

they are together now, inseparabiy

That Republican was converted right
trere. That was something he had
never thought Of He had an eighty
acre piece of land, and he reasoned that
if Bryan was elected silver would g.
up to 81 %, and wheat would go with
IL. He owed nearly $1,000 on the land,
and if wheat should go to 81 %. he fig
ured, how easy it would be to pay eff

elected, but the man went ON with his
vfiEter-wheat sowing because he had

heart was heavy. He did not see how
he was going to pay off that mortgage
at half-rates He raised 800 bushels
of wheat, and got S2.20o for it. He sold
just below 20 cents, and then he went
to look at the price of silver.
1t was something like A cents,

wheat. He made enough to pay Off his
mort gage, and has now gone back to
the Republican party, as have thou

The report from Sweden that An
dree's balloon had been seen in the
neighborhood of Winnipeg turns out as
experienced Americans expected. it
was given out in the far Northwest, by
means of circulars and handbills, that
Andree was at large in balloon. and
might be visible. Immediately balloons
began to be reported, as they were two
years ago in our own hopeful and
veracious country The Swedish Acad-
envy put faith in these reports, just as
any one would who had not had pre-
vious experience.-Harper' Weekly.
