A Correction.

The following letter, which was re-

ton, will correct the rumor which had
been so freely distributed, and will
serve to place the boys in better
light. It will be a source of great
satisfaction to our people to know that

CAMP MCKENZIE, GA,
Feb. 20, 1899.
Editor TRIBUNE:
We notice with regret that the latest
issue of the "Gazette" mentions a let
ter received stating that our two non-
commissioned officers had received
trial and sentence. For the benefit of
their people at home, we will say that
the report is untrue-they are as yet
awaiting trial. The only case tried
so far was that of Private Foley, of
Co. F. The trial as given by the Au-
gusta papers shows that prior to the
trouble his character was excellent;
that his refusal to obey orders and re-
turn to his quarters was couched in
very respectful language. He admits
being guilty OF insubordination and
Of taking ball cartridges from the reg
mental commission building against
orders, but the paper says "this does
not constitute mutiny." Now as he is
reputed to be a ringleader, it would
not appear that our boys, not being
ringleaders, will suffer any very seri-
Gus penalty. In order to justify the
sO-called mutineers at home, will say,
Hadley, the murderer, travels on
his muscle and also well-established
reputation as man killer. He delib-
erately, after giving the murdered
man something to drink, probably a
drink of this pine top whiskey, placed
revolver to his heart and fired, in
spite of the murdered boys brothers.
plea not to shoot and he would take
his brother out to camp. In conclu-
sion, wish to say that while the regi-
ment as unit did not favor mob law,
we, since the Imprisonment of the
boys, do sympathize with them in their
trouble, and trust that if they are re-
leased and permitted to return home
with the regiment, they receive as
warm a welcome as the balance of
US.

GOOD evening, Mr.. Dean" the
minister said. 81 know it is very late,
but we were too busy to come in ear
lier. Mrs. Broderick wishes to look
at the children's shoes. Nellie is 60
ing to be taken away to the hospital,
tomorrow, and she must have some
shoes to year,
"Certain]y!! certainly, she must!"'
hurriedly muttered Mr.. Dean, while
tears gathered in his eyes when he be-
held Nellie's poor, shrunken, faded
little mother; so sad and careworn
and thinly clad, and he realized that
it was her husbands love for drink
that caused all her pain and sorrow.
She had once before her marriage
been domestic in his house, and he
remembered her as pretty girl, and
for years she had had all this misery
and poverty, and he had helped it on
by voting year after year for license,
and somehow he could hear a still,
small voice whispering in his ears
''license-license-license.'
''What size do you wish?" he asked
Mrs. Borderick, at the same time max
ing up his mind that there should be
no charge for Nellie's shoes.
"She is eight years DID," faltered
her mother.
Eyes, I know" answered Mr.. Dean;
''but what size shoe does she wear?"
At this, the poor heart-broken moth
er gave away to her feelings, and she
sobbed aloud: 81 don't know what
size. Nellie has never had a pair of
shoes; all her fathers wages goes to
McMahon's saloon"
And, oh! how these words rang in
the merchants ears.
"Nellie has never had pair of
shoes!''
And the echo of that sad wall was
Observation-Disclosures
His heart ached for that sad mother,
but he could say no word Of comfort
to her, for he had helped on the saloon
that had caused this awful sorrow.
He would have given the entire con-
tents of his store at that moment, if he
could have exchanged places with the
minister, who had always been. good
and pious man, and had been true to
himself, true to humanity and true to
God, by always voting right.
Mr.. Dean saw his duty at last and
saw it clearly. He was soon at home
in his luxurious bed. but all that night
he coun not sleep. He prayed earn
estly, that if God would mercifully
spare his life, he would do all in his
power to stop the Rum business, that
was depriving many little innocent
children Of food and shoes, right in
theit own beautiful village. His good
wife prayed with HIM.

terday at the state railroad and ware
house commission. a complaint was filed
by the Albert Lea concern last summer,
with reference to rates from Albert Lea
and an alleged discrimination, placing
them at a disadvantage with other firms
competing in. their. territory. The matter
was taken up by the commission, and,
after two conferences and the reception
of a vast amount of testimony, the mat
ter was dropped for the time being, on
the representation Of the Milwaukee that
they would fix up a satisfactory compro-
mise tariff and present 1t to the Albert
Lea firm.
During the past week the Milwaukee
has come out of its trance and again re-
membered the matter. A compromise was
fixed up and in the session with the firm
yesterday the new arrangement was dis
cussed. The session was executive, and
nothing is given out regarding the result.
No agreement has yet been arrived at
between the complainant company and
new tariff which the Milwaukee proposes
is essentially the same as the one on which
complaint was made. Ransom Bros. have
refused to accept half measures and stand

Travel to and from the East for the
holidays is over. Until after New
Years the railroads do not expect to car
~ many people, except the usual amount
of local business One interesting feature
of the holiday business east-bound has
been the manner in which people from
the cities and the Northwest timed them
selves in making their connections. City
agents state that so carefully calculated
have been many of the holiday trips that
one might well think st. Paul people
grudged every hour spent outside Of the
city limits Almost without exception,
travellers going East so arranged as to
arrive at their destinations Sunday or
early Christmas day. The travel during
last week and the early part Of the pres
ent week was largely limited to people
going home to the New England states.
Since Wednesday ticket sales to Atlantic
coast points have been falling off rapidly.
Chicago, Kansas City, St. Louis, Omaha,
Milwaukee and Detroit drew heavily on
the holiday travel out Of st. Paul. though
the majority of the ticket sales for this
business were completed before the end
Of last week. One new feature of the
holiday business developed this week,
when, atthe- request Of ST. Paul patrons,

An interesting phase of the situation
this year is the fact that, with cheap
colonist rates in effect, 1t. costs no more
to take three people to Pacific coast
points than to take two people East from
there. Some wise man in Seattle discov-
cred this fact, and, instead Of taking his
wife to Boston for the holidays. sent to
Boston for his parents and a brother.
