has given orders that hereafter the religious
denominations of the soldiers admitted to
hospitals must be ascertained in order to
summon a minister of their faith where
there is a certainty of death. The chaplains
are doing effective work among the sick In
the hospitals.
There are over one hundred TYPHOID fever
patients in the division hospitals and the
Red Cross wards have been increased to
double their former size to accommodate
this class of patients. The society has thir-
ty-five trained female nurses on the ground
taking care of the most serious cases. More
than half the new cases were brought to
Camp Meade by the Northumberland

Regiments, from Camp Black.
Major Charles r. Parke. of Scranton, will
be tried tomorrow by general court-mar-
tial for refusing to receive descriptive lists
of patients delivered to the second hospital

will be that he never received a copy of the
order. He is also charged with neglect to
furnish descriptive lists of patients shipped
from the division hospital to the city hos
pitals.
Chief Surgeon Girard has recommended to
Surgeon General Sternberg that mosquito
bars, head nets and buckslxin gloves be
made a part of the regular equipment of
the men in the army who are going to
Cuba, Porto Rico and the Philippines.

Corps, which includes four Pennsylvania
regiments, and is in command of Gen. S. NJ

The engine has been given the right of way
to the Sagebrush State, but the attorneys
for Cadwallader are confident that the
sheriffs along the line will succeed in head
ing off the special and give Cadwallader
another chance to fight for his liberty in
the courts of California Great excitement
has been caused here by the move on the
part of Sheriff Simmons, and news is eag-
erly awaited as to whether the engine sue
ceeds in getting out of California jurisdic-
tion or falls into the hands Of the officers
on watch. The officers are badly handi-
capped. Stations through the Sierras are
not very close together, and generally only
accessible from one to the other. In some
counties the LEGAL capital is not situated on
the maiu line, and there is pretty race on
between Simmons and the sheriffs of coun-

1922 train, but the sheriff had chartered a
special locomotive and car for $125, and the
outfit was waiting some distance from the
station. The prisoner was driven in hack
at dead run to the special, which pulled
out in advance of the regular train with
orders not to stop for water until after pass
