Poor Opinion OF ChapIains,

Savannah, Ga, Dec. 29.-Rev. Sam
Small, the evangelist, now chaplain Of
the Third engineers, U. 8. A., arrived
here yesterday. He says: 1.-THE chap
lains are sort Of sop to the church SEN
timent without much substance to them.
They just take a minister and put q uni
form on him with a silver cross on the
shoulder, pay him $500 month and turn
him loose on 1900 men without any of the
implements Of the scriptural warfare to
fight with. I've been disappointed.
When I set out I am going to suggest
that they do away with the chaplains.
When we get down TO Cuba I'll wager
most Of the men would rather go to
cock fight or a bull fight than attend
services. To tell the truth, I am be-
ginning to think there is a heap Of bal
derdash about what the chaplains do ac-
complish outside Of meeting the sentl-
ment that calls for their presence with
every body of troops"
