THE ARMY CHAPLAIN
HE CARRIES THE CHURCH MILITANT
TO THE BOYS AT THE FRONT.

How the Regular Post Chaplain Differs
From the Spiritual Adviser Selected by
the Volunteer Regiment 49, other Reli-
gious Work Among the Soldiers.
Along with the field guns and ambu-
iances go the Bible and tho hymnbook.
As in 1861 so in 1898 the army chaplain
tas gone to the front with the volunteers
Our crash clad boys in Cuba arc TO ha .
opportunities for churchgoing in the midst
of their campaigning. They may have
left behind civilization, but not the church
militant
In the regular army there are but three
regimental chaplains, and these are at
tached to the three colored regiments.
Then there are 81 post chaplains, who are
stationed at tho various military posts
throughout the country. These chaplains
find themselves practically deserted by
their flocks, who have been ordered to the
front. Most of them are stationed at iso-
lated posts in the western states.
The volunteer chaplains are Of an alto
gether different class, just MS the volunteer
soldier is different from the regularly en-"
listed man. Among the volunteer chap
lains are some of the most eloquent and
popular divines from the metropolitan pull
pits. In many cases they are ministers
who were nominally attached to regiments
of the national guard and have decided to
leave their fine churches, rich congrega-
tions and comfortable parsonages In order
to be with the boys at the front.
The duty Of the volunteer chaplain who
accompanies regiment, the members Of
which have selected him as their spiritual
adviser, is quite different from the duty Of
the regular army chaplain. The former
has an influence over the men that the lat
| ter has not.
As rule, the volunteers who are now
mustered into the United States service
are men who have had religious training,
and although they may not have been In
the habit Of attending services regularly
while at home they are generally found to
do so when absent on duty. On the other
hand, the regular army enlisted man has
rarely contracted the habit Of churchgo-
ing, and the chaplain finds the effort to get
him into this habit most difficult task.
| A good many regimental chaplains have
come into the army under the first call for
troops, and others are going out from time
to time. Tents to serve as churches have
been provided for many Of them, and these
are to be transported wherever the troops
may go.
| Good examples Of these churches mill
tant are found in the cases OF the Second
regiment of Massachusetts, the Seventy
first regiment of New York, and in the
work of the Roman Catholic chaplains un
The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1898-06-30

REV. I. NEWTON RITTER, POST CHAPLAIN.
der the Rev. E. ]. Vattmann. The regi-
ments named took their chaplains with
them, and also their churches. One is an
able divine, who left his pulpit in Brook
lyn to 20 to the front, 1t happening that
the Bay State regiment had retained the
Brooklyn preacher after his removal to
another city, and the other Is one Of the
best known clergymen in New York.
So far from the volunteers being absent
from their churches because they are at the
front, it Is in both cases the people at
home who suffer deprivation. Their pas
tor is at the front, and tent takes the
place of brick and stone. Everything
found in the church at home is found in
the church at the front.
Father Vattmann is the Oldest Roman
Catholicchaplain in the regular United
States army service, and one of the Oldest
and most highly respected chaplains stand
ing for any branch of the church. Tenn
porarily and in an unofficial way, for the
greatest efficiency, he is placed in charge
Of the chaplains of his church either In the
regular or volunteer service, He has been
provided with church militant like the
others, and that not by the government,
but by the church, and he and his fellow
| workers will go to Cuba when circum-
stances warrant and take their militant
church with them. 1t Is fitted with the
essentials for a dignifled and proper rem
dering Of the Roman Catholic ritual.
Supplementing, but in no way conflict
ing, is the army Christian commission.
This commission had its origin in the in
ternational committee of the Young Men s
Christian association, not with any aim
to keep others out of the field or because 1t
was designed to be association work and
| nothing else, but because this committee
was already in existence and formed an ad-
mirable nucleus TO begin with. At four
camps has work been undertGken-namely,
| Tampa, Mobile, Chickamauga and Wash
| ingtOn. At each of these from three to
| eight tents have been provided,
Although noncombatants as rule, chap
! lains are reckoned among the regimental
| officers. They mess with the officers and
| enjoy special privileges. The post chap
| lains are regularly commissioned with the
| rank of captain and receive 81 900 year
| for the first five years of service after
| which their pay is increased
In the British army there are Sc chap
lains. Although there is an established
| church there the recent practice has been,
| as here, to appoint some Roman Catholic
and some Methodist, Presbyterian and
other denominational chaplains, Besides
| chaplains there are chapel clerks, and the
| whole expenses of the British government
| for chaplain services amount to about
| 100000 year.
Chaplains in the German army are called
field pastors. The field pastor wears an
armlet of white and light purple to denote
| his calling He has quarters with the d.
visional general and breaches wherever il
Is convenient TO get congregation Chap
lains of the German sort are maintained
by all nations OF Europe.
