Since your last report from Company
was published the boys have received
their new uniforms and have been sup
piled with shelter tents. Most Of the
boys are now fully scclimated aud are
enjoying camp life better than when We

not been homesiek or attacked by the

far away Pennsylvania.
Private Charles ! Shaffer was sent TO
the hospital ON Monday. The nature of
his illness is not known, but the boys all
hope for his speedy recovery.
Among those who have been selected
to enter the contest in rifle practice are

the battlefield reminds me that the Gov
ernment has provided many landmarks
in the way OF tablets and monuments
that give the history of the ground upon
which they stand in more or less detail.
Wherever a gun was captured the spot is
marked by an immense cast bronze piece,
bolted fast to gigantic blocks of granite,
pointed in the direction in which it was
aimed thirty-five years ago. Compara-
lively few Pennsylvania troops took part
in the battle, and there are but few mon

brave sons of the Keystone State. Your

climb the precipitous sides of Lookout
Mountain, and will write the HERALD a
letter describing the view, etc.

A Clever Monkey.

There is a popular monkey In the
geological gardens of the prater at Vi
emma just now, says correspondent
there, and she is much admired. Miss
Maja' has an exquisite bicycle, which
she rides to perfection, initiating to a
nicely all the movements of cyclists.
She jumps into the saddle without
touching the pedal, kisses her hand to
everybody while she waits for the sig
nal, then flies off at a splendid pace.
From the wheel she jumps on a trapeze
and then on the wheel again before 1t
can fall. When she has shown all her
arts and graces she claps her hands,
calling upon the public to applaud. She
thanks prettily for applause by bowling
and putting her hand to her heart. The
monkey has not been trained at all
only made to look on while men and
women cycled. She has taught her
self everything without any ones help.
When money is given to her she runs
to her nurse, takes her purse and puts
it in. It has been proposed to let her
have one of the many cycling medals
distributed in Vienna, but the societies
refuse to give it to her.-London Daily
News.

DEMANDS AN INVESTIGATION.
Rev. sabin Halsey will Show the Truth
About the Racine Incident.

It is stated in Methodist circles that
Sabin Halsey, d. D., has demanded an
investigation as to the unfortunate cpl
sode in this city few weeks ago, when
he was arrested by Policeman Edward
Schumacher and charged to have been
intoxicated, and afterwards discharged
by Judge FIett upon agreement of the
parties interested and the payment of
the costs. At the same time Rev.
Halsey signed an agreement releasing
the officer from all blame in the matter.
The demand is said to have been
made upon Presiding Elder Pease, of
the GAINESVILLE district, land the appoint
ment of an Investigating committee is
expected.
Mr.. Halsey is thesassistant pastor of
the Court street Methodist church of
GAINESVILLE. according to the records of
the church, and Mr.. Pease is his pre-
siding elder. Mr.. Halsey's friends in
sist that he has been Wronged by the
many reports that have been placed in
circulation and the facts Of the case
are asserted to have been unjustly con-
strued. Mr.. Halsey, as clergyman,
has the right of investigation and the
step is taken, it is. stated, to vindicate
himself.
The committee will be appointed by
Presiding Elder Pease, who will also
appoint prosecuting attorney to rep
resent thes.district. Mr.. Halsey may
conduct his own case, or he is privl-
legged to call in one of the ministers to
assist him if he deems it necessary.
Milwaukee ministers accept the ex'
plantations of DR.. Halsey and they APP
plaud the call for an official investiga-
ton. It will be much more satisfac-
tory, they say, than an investigation at
conference time, as il is believed the
matter could not pass without coming
before the conference. The report will
tend to set Mr.. Halsey right with his
presiding elder, and it's influence will
also be great upon the conference. Mr..
Halsey Is spending the summer in the
vicinity of Pleasant Prairie, to which
place he was journeying at the time OF
the Racine incident. Racine Journal

Spanish LaZ1nosS.

Henry G. Lea in the Atlantic: La
Dor, to Spanish pride, was the badge
Of inferiority, to be escaped in every
possible way. This national aversion
to labor manifested itself in an indO-
lence which rendered the pretense of
working almost illusory. DOrmer tells
us of his compatriots that they did
not work as in other lands; few hours
a day, and this internationally, were
expected to provide for them as much
as the incessant activity Of the foreign
er. To these drawbacks on productive
industry is to be added the multitude OF
feast-days, which Navarrete estimates
at about one-third of the working
days, rising to one-half at the critical
season of the harvests-feast-day
which, according to Archbishop Car
rama, were spent in debauchery rem
dering them especially welcome to the
devil Under such conditions it was
impossible for Spain to withstand the
competition of the foreigner.

SWALLOWED A HATPIN.
Little Agnes Larson Meets With Very
Serious Accident.

Serious Accident.
Little Agnes Larson, the eighteen
months old daughter of LOUIS Larson,
the meat man, met with very peculiar
rs we'll as very serious accident Fri
day afternoon. The little child was
toddling about the room watching her
mother who was busy with her house
work. In some way she got hold of a
long steel hatpin and as is customary
with children she put her new found
treasure in her mouth. A moment
later the child stumbled and fell and
the pin was pushed far into her throat.
Her screams brought her mother to her
side and as soon as the pin was dis
covered the mother attempted to
remove it, but it had slipped so far
into the elementary canal that all the
efforts we're in vain and the pin passed
on into the child's stomach. Drs
Pugh and Saunders were summoned at
once and every effort was made to
locate the pin to no avail, and it is
feared that an operation will be neces-
sary to save the child's life. 1t is ex-
expected that the pin will come to the
surface in short time, out it is feared
that before this happens it may pierce
some vital organ and cause the child's
death. On the other hand If the pin
is located the operation necessary will
be of the most dangerous character.
The pin was over six inches long and
had large round glass bead on it.
Strange as it may seem the child has
not yet experienced any trouble what
ever from the presence of the article
III her stomach, and eats and plays
with as much childish vigor as before
the accident happened.

ONE MAN AND ONE WOMAN
Episcopal Church Opposed to the Mar
riage of Divorced People.

Bishop Nicholson is one of the ten
bishops who havessissued circular
letter to the church calling for more
rigid enforcement of the church rules
regarding the marriage2.of divorced
people. The bishop says the letter
fairly represents the sentiment of the
church on the subject. The letter de
clares that any amendment to the
present canons of the church should be
based upon the principles that Christian
marriage consists in the.union of one
man with one woman until.the union is
severed by death, and that the mar
riage of any person separated by
divorce, so long as the former partner
is living, whether such person be limo
cent or guilty, is not perm ssible.

Twofers Were Good Enough.

This is one OF the late Thomas
Keene's stories: For ten years I
bought all of my theatrical costumes
from one dealer, and, as during much
of that time I was playing many new
parts In the old California theater stock
company of San Francisco, my trade
was a matter of considerable impor-
lance. When I was about to leave the
slope and come East went to make a
final order and bid my costumer good
by. I'm very sorry you're going,' he
said Here, Jake? calling to clerk,
run out and get Mr.. Keene a good
quarter of-a-dollar cigar AS Jake
started, my costumer whispered behind
his hand: TWO for a quarter, Jake;
two for quarter

A Child's Disposition

May be ruined through existing defects in
eyeSight. Children are often called dull and
stupid by teachers and parents through no
fault or their own. Perhaps born with a
defectin sight, they don't know of any differ
ent world from that which they see through
defective eyes. Mark any peculiarities that
children may have in looking at objects at a
distance or near by. Squirting, frowning,
looking sidewise, with partially closed eyes
are indications of eye troubles. Better be
over cautious in having a childs eyes
examined than to take too much responsible
ity into you r own hands. Examination free.
CHILDREN'S EYES
Should have careful attention. They
should be examined at the first complaint by
reliable optician-especially while the
child is in school. 4.t
A little care at the pro.,er time may save
them untold misery and heir parents much
remorse. A defect that may be easily
remedied NOW might prove difficult LATER.
All diseases of the eye correctly diagnosed
