Philadelphia, Sept. 26.- Elaborate
preparations are being made for
the entertainment of the Tenth Penn
sylvania regiment, that participated
with Dewey in the campaign in Luzon,
while they are here en- route to the
demonstration in New York in honor
of the admiral. The Fighting Tenth"
who were received with such glorious
outbucst of popular feeling in Pitts
burg, are going to have a similar re-
ception in the Quaker City, the home
of American patriotism. They will
find that Philadelphia cannot be ex-
celled in paying tribute of regard to
the brave sons of Pennsylvania who
went to the far off Philippines to de-
fend the flag and give their lives if
necessary for the dignity and honor of
their country. No other state east OF
the Alleghenies can claim the credit
of having regiment in LuZon in the
recent struggles with the Spanish and
the Filipinos. The Fighting Tenth"
returned home with a record excelled
by no other command for discipline
and bravery in action. They were II
days on the firing line, and the dead
they left in LuZon and the tattered
battle flag that they brought home
bear testimony to the valor and pa
triotism of the regiment.
Although Lieutenant Colonel James
Il. Barnett. who is in command of the
regiment, has been unable to take any
part in the canvass for his election as
the Republican nominee for state
treasurer, on account of his health
having been broken down from his
experience in the Philippines, it is be-
lieved that he will be strong enough
to make the trip to New York.
Philadelphia will maintain her repu-
tation for hospitality when the boys
of the Fighting Tenth" reach here
this week The Third regiment, every
| man of whom, under Colone. Robert
Ralston, volunteered when the call
came from the president in the Span
/ ish-American war, will be proud to
have the members of the Tenth as
guests. They will be at the station to
| meet them on their arrival, and will
escort them to their regimental ar
mory and entertain them at supper.
| After that there will be a series OF
smokers" at convenient halls, each
company looking after a company OF
the visitors for that occasion. The
atrical talent have been engaged for
these events and they promise things
of marvellous interest to the visitors
