Good Luck OF the First S. G. v.
Cor. NeMs and Courier.

Headquarters 1st S. G. V. l., Camp
Cuba Libre, Florida, Panama Park,
July Z, 1898.-The days are still fine
and the night pleasant. Even here in
the Land of Flowers we have to use a
blanket at night to keep comfortable,
as the salt breeze is all that one could
wish to make sleep sweet and refresh
ing. There are not as many mosqui-
toes here as there are at Camp Thorn
as. and so far not one of the much
dreaded sand flies has made its ap-
pearance since we came here. Po-
Icing the camp here is very easy
job, and all the kitchen garbage is
hauled and dumped into the river,
where it is carried out to sea.
To-day is pay day, and every one is
looking forward to getting furloughs
and leaves of absence to have big
time and spend his money as soon as
possible and get the most fun out of
it, as this war has so far been one Big
picnic. with sometimes real picnic din
ners and sometimes meals that are not
so "picnicky," but, all the same, the
boys are having good time at Uncle
Sans expense, and it really seems
that some of them are going to be sorry
when the time comes to break up and
go home.
The health of the camp has never
been better since the regiment was or
ganized.
We are going to be brigaded with an
Illinois and an Indiana regiment, which
are to come up from Miami. All three
of the regiments are to be camped on
the high sand pine ridge, where We are,
and we will be close together. The
brigade officers have not yet been ap-
pointed or organized. 1t is rumored
that Col. Alston will be made briga-
dier general, and won't this be fine for
South Carolina! At the same time no
better selection could be made or a
more worthy man appointed to fill the
place.
The drill hours here are so short
that the boys regard the drill more as
play than work, and the camp work is
so light that the men lie around in the
shade and play cards and other games
for amusement, more than anything
else.

or we die or become disabled in some

or we die or become disabled in some
way.
Lieut.. Grayson expressed the same
views. "It is not question whether
man likes to serve after the war is
ended or not, ssid he. II remember
the exact wording of the enlistment,
and there is no ground on which to
base kick against such service in a
time of peace if the Government sees
fit to so use the volunteers. While
there may be some misapprehension
on this point the volunteers are will
ing to go and do whatever the Govern
ment calls on them to do. If peace
was declared tomorrow it is not the
impression among the officers and men
at Chickamauga that they will be soon
mustered out of service. We rather
expect that we will be at least held in
reserve to meet any emergencies which
may arise. While it is generally
feared that we will not get any oppor-
tunity to see active service in war in
Cuba, we would not be surprised if we
were used for garrison work on that
island or Porto Rico until everything
becomes stable there. [ do not see
how anyone can question the right Of
the Government to so use the volun-
teers under the enlistment. -
There is some discussion Of the
matter in the North, and the opinion
seems to be entertained there that the
volunteer forces will not be disbanded
for at least several months after Spain
accepts the ultimatum Of this country
as to peace conditions. The feeling
there is that the standing army is to
be increased to 100000 men or more,
and that the war department will be
desirous Of getting all this extra
seventy odd thousand men and officers
out Of the present volunteers. In
Cuba, Porto Rico and the Philippines
it is believed it will require for some
months force probably equal to half
the entire volunteer force.-Neacs and

How About Coming Home9

The volunteer soldiers and their
friends are beginning to ask anxiously
when the volunteers of the United
States are to be mustered out of
service. 1t is generally thought
among the soldiers that they are to be
relieved as soon as the war shall have
terminated, but many are under the
impression that the volunteers enlisted
for two years. This latter arrange
ment would probably suit officers with
good salaries attached to their titles,
but it would hardly please the bigger
part Of the privates, who make up the
army. A private, speaking OF the
matter yesterday, said
President Mckinley certainly
stated when the call for volunteers
was made that the men who enlisted
would be mustered out as soon as the
war was over. certainly think that
most of the volunteers entered the
army with the idea that their services
were not to be required after the
establishment of peace. If you talk
TO the men you will find that cutie
the common idea. We certainly did
not expect to be sent off to garrison
places for year or two after the war
ended. -
In Georgia the soldiers are giving
much time speculating on the time
they will have to serve. Captain
Kohlson, in Savannah. is quoted as
follows in the Morning Neacs of yester-
day:
'There is nothing under the terms
of enlistment by which a man can
claim that he was to be discharged as
soon as the war came to an end. The
enlistment is absolutely for two years,
without reservation. If the war de-
partmcnt desires to use all the volun-
teer forces for the full term of their
enlistment there is nothing in the
enlistment to prevent it. Of course
there are many men who volunteered
who did so to fight Spanish soldiers,
and not to garrison places for year
or more after the war is at an end
but they cannot claim exemption and
ask for discharges on that account.
We are in for two years, unless tic
war department voluntarily sees ut to
dismiss us honorably from the service

Cut Her Throat With q Butchers
Knife.

CENrRALIA, Mo-, Aug. Death
probably will ring down the curtain
before morning in the final act of the
Havens tragedy. Cora Havens this
morning cut her throat with knife.
1t is doubtful if she survives until
morning.
Hers is the third suicide. She is
the girl who, from extreme bashful-
ness, refused to marry her lover, G..
f. Fait, young farmer living near
her fathers home in Boone County.
They had been lovers since childhood,
but scarcely word passed between
them, as when she was near him her
tongue refused speech. BE finally
proposed and she accepted him, but
when he begged her to name day for
the wedding, she put him off. Her
mother and father endeavored to pre-
vail upon her to name day, but she
steadily refused, stating that she was
afraid that she dreaded marriage.
Finally she set July 5 as the date.
There was no sign of weakening on
her part until few days before the
ceremony. Then she told her mother
that she could not marry Fait, although
she acknowledged that she loved him.
AS the day of the wedding drew near
she grew nervous and was given to
fits of violent weeping and repeatedly
begged her mother to allow her to
again postpone the date, but her
mother was obdurate. !.
On the day for the wedding she told
hei mother that it would be impossible
for the ceremony to take place. The
wedding guests arrived and the groom
was present, when she fatty refused.
Coaxing and threats were equally in
vain, and, driven desperate by repeated
postponements, young Fait went home
and swallowed morphine. When found
he was dead.
The suicide preyed on the mind Of
the mother. She constantly reproach-
ed her daughter for her action. The
mother brooded over the subject night
and day, changing from merry farm
wife into morose and gloomy woman.
Her husband feared that her mind was
giving away, and 30 be watched her
carefully; but early on the morning OF
July 12 she eluded his vigilance and
slipped from the house.
She was soon missed and the hus-
band and daughter began search for
her. She was found, lying face down,
in shallow pond in the garden. She
had waded into the water and then
laid down and deliberately drowned
herself. The suicide of the mother
brought the reproaches Of her father
and neighbors on the girl.
Gradually feeling that she was
responsible for the death of her lover
and mother came to her. She became
despondent and was given to fits OF
melancholia, seldom, speaking to any
one, and becoming more retiring than
ever. Her father endeavored to cheer
her. up, but the two tragedies haG
broken him down and he was not
much comfort to the girl.
This morning the girl could bear it
no more. She was in the kitchen,
and, taking up butcher knife, with
the edge of razor, she drew it across
her throat. It almost severed her
jugular vein. The blood spurted in a
river from the gaping wound and when
discovered she was unconscious, hav-
ing bled almost to death.
