The Thirty-third Reg
iment Leaves the
Camp.
The Thirty-fourth sill There
Before Leaving By Giving
Big Parade.

ISLAND LAKE, May 81. 1898.
The Thirty. Third Regiment made
things rather lively about camp last
might. The boys were in hard lines.
They had intended getting away on their
"trip to Washington at noon yesterday
and had pulled down their tents and had
everything packed and in readiness for
the trip. But the railroad was unable TO
get the cars ready for them and they will
not leave uotil tonight, and perhaps not
The boys had to sleep around as best
they could last night and many OF them
were accommodated by the BOYS OF the
Thirty Fourth. Early in the evening
one OF the companies arranged an effigy
of Weyler at the top Of long pole and
ak foot man carri,d the outfit about
camp, followed by hundreds OF men. The
effigy was very cleyerly arranged with an
umbrella overhead and strings on his
arms SO that they could be moved as the
strings were pulled. After paradlug the
camp grounds With crowd OF soldiers
following them up and keeping up yell
that would have done credit TO band OF
red skins, well filed with firewater. they
wound up at big bonfire where the
dreaded and hated Weyler was consumed
in the flames, amid the wild cheering OF
she crowd. Daring the parade the song,
which ran something like"We'll hang old
Weyler TO the sour apple tree" 70 the
tune of "John Brown" was kept up.
After this interesting ceremony was
over they built big bonfres, which were
kept gong greater part OF the night.
Their band also made things interesting
about camp and serenaded the governor
during the evening. The boys of the two
regiments are fast getting acquainted,
and they all hope that they will be en-.
-camped near each other at Washington
Ii ii takes the rhirty-Fourth as long to
get out OF Camp Eaton as it did the
Thirty Third, the regiment will not he
out before the latter part OF next week.
III the train which takes the Thirty Third
down to the capital has TO return before
our regiment can go, it will certainly not
leave before next Saturday, and possibly
not then.
Yesterday was a sort OF half way pay
day among the boys of Company ID. The
rebate on the first ten DAYS pay which
the State paid the soldiers and which was
held until the accounts for the board were
settled, amounting to $3.50 was turned

Major Latimer, both OF whom tip the
scales at good deal over 200 pounds.

they are both jolly men, whose company
it is always pleasure to be in.

However. they will be sent on to the regi-

Among the visitors at camp today
were Lieutenant Governor Thomas b.
Dunstsn and Editor J. Fl. Wilson, of the
Native Copper Times. The former has
made several trips out to camp since he
has been in the lower part OF the State,
and is Llways welcome among the boys.

1t is doubtful II any regiment OF Michi-
gan has a line OF staff and company off,

has the Thirty Fourth. The officers,
from the colonel TO the lowest ranking
second lieutenant, make their personality

opinion the men have OF them as gentle

Why have the millions from other land
EDMUND o. DEWEY.

Why have the millions from other lands
longed for home on our shores, is ques-
ton that is often asked. Certainly the
theories advanced by democratic statesmen,
that cheap goods and cheap living are what
the people want and what has attracted
them to our shores, are not correct. In
England, Ireland, Italy, Hungary, Poland,
yea, all Europe, things possessed by these
unfortunate ones are cheap indeed-so
cheap that labor's share even gives them
but small possessions of the scanty fare
provided for the masses. In the United
States these same people begin to look for
the best the country affords-the best
homes, the best machinery, the best of i'm
provements of all kinds, and hence the best
employment. The happiness of people,
therefore, does not arise from their having
anything cheap.

Facts of Suffering From Labor.

Let the critics of the administration In
the management of the war furnish some
comparisons on which to sustain their
charges, or else withdraw them. Compari.
sons are abundant which show that the
mortality in the war with Spain has not
been unreasonable or excessive when so
compared. Note the following: Four In.
diana regiments, the 115th, 10th, 117th and
11sth, were mustered in, August, 1858, for
q term of six months The history of their
service shows the following: Five men
were killed or died of wounds, 315 men
died of disease; making total of $40.
This loss was equal to ten per cent of the
four regiments In the SIX months service,
which If compared with the present war,
would require the mortality rate of the
troops engaged in Cuba to reach at least
five per cent of the total loss. The best
figures now given out or known to exist
show the greatest loss in any command to
be less than one per cent.
From these statements 1t is reasonable to
believe that the newspaper criticism now
going the rounds of the press is not found
ed on fact, but on the tales of horror as
recited by individuals who are not respon-
sible In any way and cannot make good the
charge that the government has been de-
relict in caring for and providing against
these terrible conditions which war must
certainly bring.

Esther Fuller Kline, Died at Laingsourg
Saturday, Aged Ioa Years, Months
and 81 Days.

Saturday, AGED io2 feaie, WoA'e
and al Days.
The folio wing article concerning Mrs
Esther Fuller Kinney, OF Laingsburg, Will
doubtless be read with considerable interest
not alone by those who knew her, but also
by citizens In general throughout the county.
Esther Fuller was born in Otsego Co.,
N. Y, March 10Th, 1896. She was the
daughter Ct Mathew Fuller, soldier in
the Revolutionary war. She was one OF
family of fifteen children, all OF whom
have now passed away. Her early
years were spent in Broome county, N.
Y when it was still western wilder
ness. The empire state continued to be
her home until the year 1865 when she
came to Laingsburg, and here has since
lived with her son, Charles.
Esther Fuller was married in 1915 to
Elizur Kinney. From this union five
children were born, three sons and two
daughters. One daughter preceded her
mother to the unseen world. There re-
main four children: Frances d., Henry
E., George M. and Charles are here today.
Her husband died in 1865, the year in
which deceased came to Laingsburg
She accepted Christ as her Saviour in
early life, and has spent not far from 80
years in the service of the Master. She
has always been a consistent, earnest,
and faithful Christian, and has had a
great interest in the church, and the
Masters Kingdom. Upon her CONVEX
sion she united with the Baptist church,
and retained her membership during
her long, useful Christian life.
The same year in which she arrived in
Laingsburg, 1865, she united with the
Baptist church here by letter. She loved
to attend the services of Gods sanctuary,
and whenever possible was in her place.
The last time she was found in the house
of worship was in her Tooth year.
She retained the sense of sight and
hearing to remarkable degree even up
to year or two. Her strength, consid-
OiiuS h0I duNduCCu dSS, Wd5 WOuuCllul,
as it has not been more than year since
she walked to her daughters, Frances d.
Phelps. Grandma Kinney, as she was
called by her many friends, was kind,
loving and devoted mother. She was
ready for any sacrifice for the best inter-
ests of her children.
Her general health had failed gradu-
ally for the past two years. She was
taken to her bed about one week before
her death, and Saturday morning, Sept.
10th, she passed away without any strug-
gle, aged 102 years, months and 81
days, having retained her faculties to the
last.
When talked with about Jesus and his
love, her eyes would sparkle and light
up with that light and joy that comes
only from soul filled with heavenly
light of Christ's love. The funeral was
held at the Baptist church, and was
largely attended.

The populists and silver democrats seem
to have stopped talking about the gold
contract that was attempted to be made in
1877 by ademocratlc house, when one r
p. Bland introduced bill in which the ex-
cepted provision first occurred. After vain
ly attempting to fasten this legislation upon
the republican party and attach great odium
to the same, the revelation of the records of
the house of representatives having been
produced, the democrats and the populists
have ceased talking about the gold contract
which Mr.. Bland proposed.

Showed Their Respect.

Flushing, Mich, Sept. 10.-Business
places in this village were all closed to-
day and the entire community turned out
to show its respect to the gallant soldier
who had been brought here for inter-
ment. Francis III. Sweet, of Company F,
Twenty-second United States Infantry,
had just completed his three years of SER
vice when he was stricken with the dead
ly fever. He was the son of Rev. John
Sweet, of Owosso, and had many friends
here, where he at one time lived.
