HIS SHARE OF THE PRIZE MONEY. -
The little Brooklyn boy who offered
his entire fortune of 4S cents to Presi-
dent Mckinley to buy warship to
replace the Maine, bad a predecessor
in the War of 1912. He is known to
history simply as "Billy," and was
only nine years old. He was the only
son of widow, and the crew of Cap
tain Decatur's frigate United States
had adopted him. When the Maoedo-
nian hove in sight, the little fellow
stepped up to Commodore Decatur.
"And it please you, captain" he
said, 81 wish my name might be put
down on the roll"
"And what for, my lad ?" inquired
the commander.
$50 that / can draw share of the
prize money, sir" answered be.
Pleased with the spirit of the little
hero, his name was ordered on the list.
After the prize was taken, Decatur
called up the little sailor boy.
"Well, Bill" said he, "we have
taken her, and your share of the prize,
if we get her safe in, will be about two
hundred dollars. What will you do
with il? ?"
"I'll send one-half of it to my moth
er, sir, and the other half shall send
me to school,"
Delighted with the spirit of the lad,
the commodore took him under his
immediate protection, and obtained for
him the berth of midshipman.

General Nelson A. Miles, now in
command of the U. S. army, issued an
order last Friday, providing for the
concentration of six regiments of cav
airy, and the light batteries of five
regiments of artillery, at four differ
ent points in the south. The six reg.
iment of cavalry, and the light artil-
lery, we've ordered to Chickamauga
Park, Ga. The infantry regiments
were disposed of as follows:
To New Orleans, La: The lst, 7th, Sth,
10Th, 10th, 18th, 23d and 24th.
TO Mobile, Ala: The I'd, 10th, llth,
10Th, Goth and ed.
To Tampa, Fla: The 4th, 5th, 9th, 9th,
18th, 18th and 2lst.
1t was given out from Washington
that The president had for sometime
been considering the advisability of
sending the troops south with a view
to acrlimalizing them to the condition
of more tropical latitudes, it was not
until the development of the situation
to the seriousness which appeared last
week, that he felt justified in incurring
the enormous expense involved. The
order covers the entire standing army,
save only three regiments of infantry
and four of cavalry.

cavalry and artillery camps. Looking
forward to the occupation of the park
as a camp of instruction, the commits
sioners have provided eight arteslan
wells in order that it might not be
necessary for the troops TO use surface
water for drinking purposes. Upon
recent notification that troops would
probably be assembled at the park, the
commission ordered work to begin ON
four additional artesian wells, and
these will be ready before it will be
necessary to use the grounds about
them for camping purposes. Dams
will be thrown across two consldera-
able streams to form pools for bathing.
The natural features of the park
present every element of topography
likely to be met with in actual CAM
paigning. There are fields and forests,
each of great extent, low ridges and
precipitious elevations. some clear oi
woods and some in timber. Ihe
Chickamauga river, with its steep
banks, affords every needed facility for
instruction in bridge building. The
roads of the park system extend along
the crest of Missionary Ridge for eight
miles and cross Lookout mountain
through the field of the "battle above
the Clouds" All the roads by which
the Union and Confederate armies APP
proached and left the various fields
within the limits of the park have
been highly improved, and give easy
access TO every portion OF the seven
battlefields about Chattanooga which
are reached by the mileage system OF
the park. These are Chickamauga,
Wauhatchie, Browns Ferry, Orchard
Knob, Lookout Mountain, Missionary
Ridge, Tunnel Hill and Ringgold.
Practice marches over these roads
will make known to officers and men
alike the unsurpassed strategy by
which Chattanooga was finally secur.
ed, the intricate and quick tactical
movements of noted battles, and the
splendid fighting of both sides, which
has not been elsewhere surpassed III
war. In addition to the marches over
the actual ground of such contests, the
observation towers on the main fields,
the crest roads on Missionary Ridge,
the roads over Lookout, and the sum
nit of that mountain itself, afford ele-
valions from which every movement,
either strategy or the tactics of the sew
eral batllefields, can be distinctly
traced.
The lines of battle on all these have
been ascerlained by the national com
mission, acting in cooperation with
26 state commissions, and marked ny
monuments, historical tablets, and bat
teries remounted in their actual fight
ing positions on the lines. Seventy
such batteries have been restored, in
which the guns are all of the patterns
used in the battle. The historical
tablets set forth the details Of the
movements of every command from
the unit of regiments and batteries, up
through brigade, division, corps and

The camp OF the left brigade will also
be in plain view of the fighting ground
about General Thomas's headquarters
at the Snodgrass house, and will cover
portion of the territory over which
Gordon Granger's troops rushed with
out orders toward the sound of battle,
to the relief of General Thomas and
the salvation of an army.
An adjoining camp will overlook
the Kelly field, into which Breckin-
ridges division of Confederates, turn
ing the Union left, penetrated on Sun
day morning, and over which five
brigade charges occurred in the move
ments necessary to drive his columns
back. In front of this field also ran
the four divisions of the Union left,
which stood as firm as did Thomas's
troops on Snodgrass Hill, and bore the
brunt of frequent assaults by the en-
tire right wing of the enemy.
The camps for cavalry will be estab-
lished in the open country along the
Chickamauga river from Alexander's
bridge to Reeds bridge, thus occupy
ing the ground where Forests cavai-
ry, stationed to observe the right and
rear of Bragg's army, was attacked by
the head of General Thomas corps,
which, by a night march, had passed
around the Confederate right to a
position fully in its rear, and covering
the roads to Chattanooga. Here For
rests cavalry dismounted, and fighting
as infantry, so fought, in we'll ordered
lines, with a pluck and endurance
which carried them into the very flash
ing of the guns of the Union batteries,
as to create the impression with Thom-
as veterans that they were fighting
infantry. On this portion of the field
the soldiers now camping there will
learn how for five hours a contest
ragged constantly at point-blank range,
and often almost hand to hand, where
the severity of the fighting is well illus
trated by the single fact that one
brigade of Forests command here
lost quarter of its entire force in
killed and wounded in the first hour
Of the engagement.
Thus every camp in this great field,
where $4,000 soldiers can be establish
ed in tents and easily maneuvred, will
have its thrilling and inspiring history.
The soldiers now assembling will be
reused to emulate the heroic fighting,
the history of which they will find re-
corded at every turn. They will learn
that each side fought with pluck, and
dash, and endurance which places this
field in the very front rank of all mod
ern wars. They will find brigade after
brigade on each side which stood in
their lines, or moved to repeated
assaults, with courage and soldiery
endeavor that when the battle had
been lost resulted in the loss of every
other man. All the studies either of
strategy, Of tactics, or of the casualty
lists, will be intensely interesting, i'm
pressive, and of great practical value.

The observation towers upon the
Chickamauga field, which occupy the
highest elevations and rise above the
timber, enable the student to trace all
the tactical movements of the three
days operations upon that field. The
government road to Ringgold will be
completed early in the present season
and the lines of battle at that point
have already been ascertained and par
TALLY marked. A few words in regard
to the camping grounds that have al
ready been selected and prepared for
occupation will show the varied feat
ures of intensely interesting study
which officers and soldiers will find on
all sides of them.
The first camps will be established
in the Dyer fields, which in one direc-
tion adjoin the ground where Long
streets columns broke the Union lines
on the second day of the battle, and
caused a considerable portion of the
right of the army to be driven from the
field in confusion. At its other ex-
tremity it sweeps up to the heights OF
Snodgrass Hill, where those famous
but unsuccessful attacks of Long
streets columns broke in unending
succession Of magnificent assaults, con-
tinuing from l o'clock till sundown,
against the unshaken lines of Thomas.
These camps will be the centre of a
division line of three brigades, if the
present plan of establishing the reserve
division at the park is carried out.
The right brigade will be established
in the fields about the Bloody Pond in
front of Widow Glenn's, which was
Rosescrans' headquarters, and on the
Vlniard field. At this latter point, on
Saturday, seven brigades on each side
swept back and forth in succeeding
victories and defeats, from noon until
sundown, in one of the bitterest con-
tests of those which marked the severe
fighting of the two days. This portion
of the line also embraced the brilliant
fighting Of the poet Lytle's command.

CHICK AMAUGA PARK.

It's Superiority as a Place For Mobilizing
Troops.
II. V. Boynton in New York Sun.
The government finds itself fortu-
nate, as it suddenly faces war, in the
ownership of such a ground for the
assembling, instruction and manoeuv-
ring of troops as the Chickamauga
park reservation proves to be. Under
the act of congress making the park a
national manoeuvring ground, and
authorizing the secretary of war to
assemble there such portion of the
regular army as he may choose, and
also to allow and arrange for the con-
centration and instruction of the ma
tional guard, it was the intention to
inaugurate such use of the reservation
during the coming summer. The ad-
iutant general of the army was con-
