Gen. Mumford. in speaking of the work
done by his department and the expendi-
ture of the amount, said: ''The money
spent in equipping these troops was used

as those from the State of Maryland

work Of Gen. Mumford is completed. so
far as the quartermaster's department is
concerned.

PRIESTS FOR CAMP THOMAS.
Spiritual Welfare of Catholic Sol
dfers VIII BE Looked After

dterH VIII BE Looked After.
Baltimore. Sept. 10-Cardinal Gibbons
has received letter from Bishop Thomas
A Becker, of Savannah, Ga. informing
him that the Catholic chaplains who have
hitherto attended the soldiers at Chicka,
nauga Park have been recalled to their
respective homes. The cardinal has prom
ised and intends to send two of his clergy
TO Chickamauga next Thursday.
Rev. W. T. Russell. the cardinals sec
retary, and Rev. Thomas ]. Kenny, as
sistant pastor of St. Mary's Star of the
Sea Church, Riverside Avenue and Glenn
ent Street, have been selected by Cardinal
Gibbons to go. They will devote them
selves to the spiritual care of the large
number Of Catholic soldiers at Chicka-
mauga and the sick in the hospitals.
About ninety Sisters of Charity and Sis
ters of Mercy are busily engaged there as
nurses. OF the ninety, thirteen belong TO
the Sisters of Mercy at the Baltimore City
Hospital and are experienced and capa-
ble nurses.
In his letter TO Cardinal Gibbons Bishop
Becker said. The deplorable lack Of
spiritual aid in the constantly shifting
camps, and especially at Chickamauga
Park, has been a source of great anxiety
20 us. Since hostilities were declared be-
tween Spain and the United States the
camp had the gratuitous services of the
clergy in attending TO the spiritual needs
OF the soldiers. Now the camp at Chicka-
mauga is. II appears, without Catholic
priests, while ninety Sisters of Mercy are
serving as nurses. The various volunteer
chaplains, who came with letters from
their ordinaries, and only for few weeks
have been withdrawn, and your eminence
knows that I have no clergy to supply the
deficit, and I therefore ask you to send
some OF your own jealous clergy"

The cool atmosphere last night had
stimulating effect upon them and when
they appeared on the streets today their
step was more sprightly and their eyes
brighter than when they reached Wash
ington yesterday in blaze of glory But
the best tonic of all was the meeting and
greeting the volunteers received from
their dear ones at home.
Grouped about the evening lamp after
the grand reception. the heroes told the
story of Santiago; gave a stirring de-
scription of the charge of the Rough Rid
ers into the Spanish hornets nest; their
gallant rescue by the black boys of the
Ninth Cavalry. and their own experiences
in the trenches and in camp on San Juan
Heights.

Washington is noted. The girls. of

smiling glances of the boys in blue, who
had themselves turned about to take a
view at the passing beautys Numerous
quiet fiirtations were carried on and who

into love and perhaps marriage.

treated to anything they wished. The

Among the privates and officers of the

against their colonel. The undertone of
