can say that in my 43 years Of service
for my country. that have never done
anything that was not for its glory. and
all that have done was done to make
her greater"
As the admiral said this he drew him
self to his full heighth in his chair and
there was that look in his eye that must
have been there when he saw the ap-
preaching Spanish feet leave the har-
bor of Santiags. There was fire in his
eye then and it boded evil to those who
might have dared to say aught against
his country. And there was stiffness
in the car, as it swung along toward this
city, when the admiral had SPOKEN so
lovingly of his country, which will ever
remain with us. 1t was the spirit of
greatness in the man, and the tears al
most came to those blue and truthful
eye as he said thus of what his whole aim
in life had been, for the glory OF his
country.
Many things he said which will ever
be treasured by the writer. He would
say things, which might affect his coun-
try's interest, but he would always pre-
face these remarks by saying this is not
for publication.
Admiral Schley is about sixty years OF
age. He is tall and extremely we'll pro-
served. He has many years Of useful
mess for his country. He is all that the
American people have pictured, as be-
ing the hero OF Santiago. The conver-
sation led several times close to dis
cussion Of the great fight, but it always
verred away from that subject, as if the
admiral feared to say anything. probably
thinking it might look like boasting.
We bowed ourselves out Of the car
as il neared Parachute with the feeling
that we had convereed with one Of the
nations true heros and that he was the
only one hero of the great naval battle
OF Santiago.
The daily sentinel., 1899-05-29

One kid yelled out. "Oh there is the
hero of Manila" The admiral smiled
and addressing the boy said he was Civ
ing him too much honor
In the water or wherever we saw Ad-
miral Schley, we were impressed with
the democratic spirit of the man. He
has q warm place in his heart for child
rem and takes every opportunity to show
it.
There is not one-ffth as much POM
posity about Admiral Sahley as there is
about several people OF our own city,
whom we know and who have about as
much right to make a pompous display
as cat yelling on a back yard fence at
night. He has delightful disposition
and talks entirely unaffected and with
out seeming to realize that he is one OF
the idols OF the people.
When the editor of this paper present
ed his credentials at the car, just at the
time of leaving the Glenwood depot, un-
der the invitation Of the admiral and
General Manderson, previously given,
when introduced to the party 10 the ro
tunda of the Colorado. the door OF the
private car swung back and a hearty and
very CHEEKY voice, that OF the admiral,
said "Come in."
We were invited to take seat among
the party and were introduced to all the
ladies', Mrs. Schley and Mrs. MandersoL.
The first words addressed to us by
Admiral Schley were SWELL under
stand you desire to interview me. l
don't know about that" Here we in
terposed to read the dispatch outlining
the nature OF the interview desired.
When he had heard that he said "Oh,
that is easy"
He then began to talk interestingly Of
his trip across the range. He spoke the
warmest words Of praise for the people
Of Colorado, their hospitality and the
marvellous transformation Of all this
wild natural domain, into a country
that at the present time was beginning
to outclass in productiveness, natural
scenery, any country that he had ever
visited
Your people are as broad a. the em-
pire you have made" said the admiral
with intensity. "Yet what could you e1-
pect from the men Of such q race, OF the
same race that produced those gallant
sons Of their country who fought on
sea. They are brothers Of yours and
nothing is too great to expect from
them"
Tears almost came to his eyes ~ he
spoke Of the evidences OF love that he
had experienced, - he travelled through
the country.
at 10 not myself, but the overwhelm-
log love Of country that makes them de-
light in these demonstrations to myself
The daily sentinel., 1899-05-29

Look at the picture Of Schley and you
see Schley Photographer or artist new
or portrayed more faithfully the face Of
any public man, than they have Schley,
tho great admiral, the hero of Santiago.
The editor of the Sentinel did not 60
as far as Glenwood merely to satisfy
curiosity or to indulge in hero worship,
but he was commissioned by a metropol-
itan paper to secure a pen picture OF
Schley and he accomplished his object.
Nearly all the things that can be said
Of Admiral Schley have been said, yet
pen picture OF one Of the greatest naval
heroes that has ever lived will not be
amiss to the Sentinel readers, especially
il they know it is a correct one and not
drawn from heresay or what has been
said
The special train carrying Admiral
Schley arrived in Glenwood Springs
about $50 o'clock Saturday afternoon.
Thsrs was an immense crowd at the
station to see the admiral and as the
snorting, putting engine, under the
pursuasive hand of Doc Lane. the we'll
known Rio Grande engineer, and under
the guiding caro- of w M. Newman, the
we'll known conductor, came into the
station, it seemed to feel that it was car
rying a responsible load, and felt OF pro-
portionate consequence.
1t was little barefooted oy, carry
ing a huge bunch of wild flowers, who
first greeted the admiral. And the
boy was given as cordial a welcome as
he could possibly have pictured for
himself from the great admiral. And
the admiral cav that the flowers were
taken back into the special car and put
in water, much to the seeming disgust
Of a very irrepressible talker, who de-
sires to grace all occasions IN our neigh
boring city, and who was Just spelling
to unburden himself OF a little speech,
about the most inappropriate thing that
the admiral could have been compelled
to listen to at tho time. There was in
discriminate handshaking and the boys
were given a. much or more considera-
ton than were the men Of local fame.
The admiral and party were driven
through the principal streets Of Glen
wood and to the famous Colorado. Tho
time was short and bath was the ono
desire of Schley. BE and General
Manderson went at once to the beauti-
full pool and a. it was getting evening,
there wore few in the pool besides the
two distinguished gentlemen and .
crowd Of Glenwood small boys.
These boys Immediately recognized
the admiral and they were - familiar
with him - il they mad known him al
their lives and even went % far ~ to
threaten q combined attack, for the pur.
pose Of ducking General Nanderson.

SIX NAMES HAVE BEEN SENT.
GOVERNOR MAKES RECOMIENDA-
TIONs TO THE DEPARTMENT.

Six who Served in Three Georgia
Regiments RecOmmended-ROO DOT
Requested 1t of the GOvernOr-Can-
munes and Privates and Nom
cOms.-Names of Those Recon-
mended Not Given Out.
Atlanta, Aug. 16.-Gov. Gambler has sent
the names of six commissioned officers
who served in the three Georgia regiments
raised FOR the war with Spain to Secre-
tary Of War Root TO be considered by him
in making appointments when the ex-
pected call for more troops is made by the
President.
1t was not known until to-day that the
Governor had made his selections. and con-
sequenuy many persons called upon him
at The capitol seeking his Endorsement af-
ter it was TOO late Who the successful
or rather, fortunate, six are. cannot be
ascertalned at this end of the line. as
Gov. Gambler refuses to divulge the names
of the men he mas selected. Their names
win have TO come from the department at
Washington, where they arrived to-day
as the recommendations were mailed yes
terdax.
In making these recommendations, Gov.
Gambler acted upon the following telegram
from Secretary Root, which ne likewise
kept a carefully guarded secret of the ex-
ecutive department until after he had made
up his mind whom he would name:
Aug. 49, 1899.-Gov. Allen y. Gambler,
Atlanta, Ga: To meet any demand of the
future for volunteer officers under act
Of
are requested to submit the names of two
officers from each of the volunteer regi-
ments from your state mustered into serv-
Ice during the Spanish-American war In
order that their records may be examined
and such further inquiry as suggests it
self may be made before there is any
urgent pressure for action. In suggesting
these names, youth, vigor, intelligence,
character and fitness to command should
be taken into consideration"
In speaking of the matter, Gov. Gambler
said that he was sorry that he could not
recommend all the brave boys who served
in the recent war, and especially regretted
that he was limited to the three regiments
and to naming only those who held com
missions in them. He suggested in his
letter to Secretary Root thai he should be
allowed to name from any other regiment
in which Georgians served as many men
from this state, for instance, were in Rays
immunes, and yet they are barred. He
also suggested that he be permitted 10
select from the non-commissioned and
priVates, if he saw proper, but as yet
nothing has come of these suggestions.
A great many applications for indorse-
ment have come to the chief executive
from all parts of the state from men who
served in the Cuban campaign as officers
and non-commissloned officers and Gov.
Gambler decided to make a separate list
including the names of some of these
whose fitness for command is marked
The second list. SO far, includes the
names of Capt Sidney Wiley of RAYS
Immune Regiment; Charles Harp, second
sergeant in the Second Georgia; Robert
Lowry Meadow, second sergeant; Capt.
T. A. Dunn and Memero Cunningham, first
sergeant, Third Georgia.

STEVENS ON THE COTTON CROP.
There'II Be Hardly More Than rs
Pre- Cent. of Last Years.

Pre- Cent. of Last Years.
Atlanta, Aug. 16.-In discussing the cot
ton crop to-day, Commissioner O. B. S.
Stevens said that in Georgia there would
be decidedly lighter crop this year than
was gathered last. 1t is estimated by
Commissioner Stevens that hardly Is per
cent. of the cotton raised in 1898 had been
planted in Georgia this year.
During the winter and early spring the
department of agriculture advised the
farmers of the state to diversity their
crops and plant less cotton and more corn
and wheat. This advice has been taken
in some quarters of the state, and as a
result it is expected that fully % per cent.
more corn will be marketed from this
state than ever before.
Commissioner Stevens, in explaining the
shortage of the cotton crop this year. said
the principal way we have of telling in
advance what the staple crop is to be is
by judging of the amount of fertilizers
purchased by the farmers.
Fertilizers make the crop of the state
and when the supply is short it can gem
orally be put down as certain that the
crop is TO be short. This year, now fig
ures show that there was exactly 2O6 per
cent. less fertilizers sold in Georgia than
there was last year Again, all the fertil-
izer was not used on cotton as both the
acreage this year for corn and wheat has
increased to a large extent The increase
in the acreage devoted TO corn is exactly
"A per cent larger than it was last year
Not only is the Short crop due to the
shortage in fertilizers. but the farmers
who made up their minds to plant cotton
had TO contend with the backward spring
and very recently with lack of rain.
l believe that with favorable circum-
stances Georgia may have rs per cent of
the crop of 1898, although it is possible
that IL will not be that much. Producing
1856 900 bales of cotton last year it is safe
10 predict that this year the crop VIII not
go over 100000, and possibly not that
high"

GOVERNOR IS ASKED TO AID.
Secretary Root Invokes the Help OF
Gov. Gambler.

Atlanta, Ga, Aug. 16.-Gov. Gambler to-
day received the following appeal from
the Secretary of War in behalf of the
Porto Rioan storm sufferers:
war Department, Washington, Aug
"A, 1S99.-Sir: I enclose herewith COPIES
of two Geographic dispatches received last
evening from the governor general of Por-
to Rico, by which 1t appears that the de-
vastation wrought by the recent hurn-
cane in that island is even greater than
was at first supposed.
It is evident that a great multitude OF
people rendered utterly destitute by this
awful calamity must be fed and cared for
during a considerable period until they
can have the opportunity to produce food
for themselves Enormous quantities OF
supplies of the kinds indicated by the
governor general must be procured. The
magnitude of the work to be accom- plish-
ed leads this department to supplement
the appeal already made to the Mayors
of the principal cities of the country by
a more general appeal, and l beg you to
ask the people of your state to contribute
generously to the relief of the people of
Porto Rico
Swift steamers have been provided to
leave the port of New York to carry the
supplies directly to Porto Rico as rapidly
as they can be collected. Contributions
should be either in supplies of the charac,
ter Indicated, or in money, in order that
the supplies can be purchased. The sup
plies should be sent to Col. F. B. Jones
army building, foot of Whitehall street
New YORK city, in packages plainly mark
ed Porto Rican Relief" and he should
be consulted as TO the time of shipment.
Money should be sent to the National Bank
of North America, New York city. which
has been designated as a depository for
the relief fund. Very respectfully
Ellhu Root Secretary of NNar
