Simpson Writes From Chick !:
alrauga.

Under date of August I6 L. A. Simp-
son writes as follows:
There is great deal of sickness in
camp here. l have seen more than
dozen taken today to the regimental hos
pital, three from our troop and we had 81
already there. A new hospital with ac-
commodations for 1000 was opened in the
Park today and it is already filled up.
Personally am we'll. Lieut.. Burkholder,
however, has been very sick and is still
at the hospital. He is much improved.
Most of the cases are fever. Charlie
May of Cando, in our troop, died and
was buried with military honors last Sat-
urday. 1t was the first death in our troop.
He came to the troop the picture of
health and was an exceptionally fine
young man and his death is deeply
mourned by the entire troop.
We have a review of the entire forty
thousand men tomorrow. I have to get
up at o'clock and the review will proba-
bly, last until 2p.m. 1t begins at $780,
1t will be grand spectacle. am to
lead the second platoon of our troop in
the absence of Lieut.. Burkholder and
have spent most Of the day in putting my
horse, saddle, sabre and carbine in
shape"
The Chattanooga News in writing of
the grand "military sight of the century"
which took place August II, when 10000
boys in blue were viewed by 10000 civil
ians, says of Grigsby's Rough Riders:
Col. Grigsby's cowboys next passed
and glorious view it was. Lieut.. Col.
LLOYD was in command and as they pass
ed in front of Gen. Breckenridge the
noted gentleman raised his hat high
above his head in salute of the noble
westerners. Grigsby's men are all fine
looking ones and mounted they look ex-
tremely we'll. To see their line coming
toward the reviewing stand reminded the
old soldiers of the dark days of 81.
The cowboys all looked superb. AS
they passed Gen. Breckenridge was
heard to say: ats pity these brave
bows could not have had chance to
show Spanish soldiers what kind of ma
terial they are made Of"
During their march in front of the
reviewing stand Gen. Breckenridge al
most continually kept his hat from his
head, as did Gov. Atkinson, who sat on
his right.
In conclusion the News says:
A few moments after the last regiment
had passed the calvary passed in review
again, this time in a trot. No grander
sight can be imagined than this was. The
bugles blew continuous blast and that
with the clatter of the horses feet, made
deafening noise. The dust it raised
looked like cloud for half hour after
they had passed.
Those assembled around in sight
cheered continuously as the different
troops passed.

Bishop Msssnsr, just From Rome, Dis
Uusses the School Question.
MILWAUKEE, Aug. 24-The feature
Of the day at the convention of German
Catholic societies was an address by
Bishop Messmer of Green Bay. The
reverend gentleman has just arrived
from Rome and delivered an admoni.
ton directing and urging the mem,
bers Of the societies when they re.
turned to their homes to spread broad.
cast the words which might be said to
come almost directly from the pope
himself.
Not only did Bishop Messmer take a
radically opposite stand to Archbishop
Ireland, with reference to the schools,
but he told the members of the societies
that the propaganda viewed with re-
gret the attitude Of many Of the Eng.
lish speaking Catholics on the school
question, while the position Of German
Catholics met with approval. The
words Of the pope, as they were deliv.
cred to Bishop Messmer. as he presented
them, were to the effect that it was to
be regretted that SO many Catholics
were sending their children to the pub.
lie schools In place of the parochial
schools.

Bishop Messmer, said he fully endorsed

Fleet Gould Give No Assistance.
At the junction Of the Cingalon road
the vanguard came without warning

Suddenly the enemy rained heavy
