COST OF PHILIPPINE WAR
Over 1000 Casualties Among Enlisted
Men in the Army.

Over 1000 Casualties Among Enlisted
Men in the Army.
Washington, July 24.-Major James
Parker, of the adjutant generals Office,
has compiled some interesting statistics
regarding the instruction in the Phil
ippines. There were 1851 engagements
with the enemy, more or less serious,
between February 4. 1899, the date Of
the battle of Manila, and April 80, 1902
fixed as the virtual downfall of the in
surrection. The larger proportion of
these fights were attacks from ambush
on the American troops or skirmishes
in which only small detachments took
part
.In almost no case in these engage
ments," says Major Parker, did the
American troops surrender, or have to
retreat, or have to leave their dead and
wounded in the possession of the en-
envy, notwithstanding that in many
cases the percentage of loss was high. .
Major Parker summarizes the casual
ties of the American army as follows:
Killed or died of wounds, 50 officers
and 1886 enlisted men; deaths from dis
ease, AT officers and 2,535 enlisted men;
deaths from accidents, officers and
125 enlisted men; drowned, officers
and 257 enlisted men; suicide, 10 Off
GERS and 72 enlisted men; murdered,
officer and SO enlisted men; total num-
Der of deaths, 139 officers and 4,016 en-
listed men; wounded, 1870 officers and
2,707 enlisted men, total of 1887;
killed and wounded and deaths othel
than by disease, 2S2 officers and 4,1SS
enlisted men: total, 4470.

PITMAN GROVE.

Pitman Grove is filling up very fast with
people Of the first class. Almost every
cottage is occupied.
There are four stores where there used to
be but one and all appear to be doing a
good business during the summer months.
When winter comes business falls off to
some extent. The store inside the enclos-
ure was the first to do business in the grove
and now appears to have the largest amount
Of business, employing at present five clerks
and one delivery man. Focer & Paulin are
the proprietors. Ferris & Goodwin, on
South street, are hustlers, too. S. Clark,
on the pike, is making things hum. Jos.
A. Lodge, in G.. E. Hall, is keeping pace
with his usual business.
We have two liveries-Carr, on the pike,
and Kindle, ON Pitman avenue; but they
will not be very busy until camp COM
mences.
Pitman Grove is an enterprising little
place and quite large business is done.
Several new buildings are going up. Har-
mon Dilks' new drug store, at the corner of
Pitman avenue and the pike, will open on
Saturday, the 26th inst. 1t is very fine
building fitted up with electric lights, etc.
Mr.. Dilks placed two large soda fountains
in this week and intends that the people
will not go dry while remaining at Pitman.
Notwithstanding two water plants are
located here, both are kept at their fullest
capacity to supply the people. Mr.. Convey,
on Pitman avenue, uses 10000 gallons a
week for his lawn and household use.
Mr.. Justice, of Camden, who owns the
Honeybrook Farm, uses large quantity
of water.
Carr Bros have placed electric lights at
the Park, which are quite an improvement
over the lamps. They appear to be well
patronized by the cottages and Sunday
school and other picnics.

the Door work which marks his last rest

ing place.
Venetian glass and lace have for CEN
turtles made this city famous, and the in
dustries are continued. Very cordial invi-
tations are extended to tourists to visit the
different establishments to see the actual
work done. One of the arguments put
forth is that it costs nothing to enter, which
is true. What the exit will cost is not
stated. That depends upon the fortitude
and prudence of the tourist.
Our longest ride in gondola was over to
Murano, where the chief glass factories are
located, and then farther on to Burano and
Torcello. In the last island we saw an
other old church containing a very odd
picture of the Last Judgment. 1t was in
mosaic of the 10Th century and represented
the current ideas. The homeward ride was
in the face of strong wind, but the two
gondoliers made excellent time, and seemed
unwearied by the long journey of IL miles,
eagerly inquiring if they could serve in the
evening.
On Sunday we attended the English
Church, there being no American Church
in Venice. The services were marked by
the thankgivings for peace after the long
war in Africa, and we could understand
what such service meant to the British
people, our own services of thanksgiving
being still fresh in the memory. During
the afternoon service severe storm broke
over the city, and as it continued sought
a covered gondola to take us back to the
hotel. found a very comfortable one
under the shelter of the nearest bridge, but
was surprised to have the gondolier pay nc
attention to me, until bystander pointed
to the armorial bearings. 1t was the private
gondola of Don Carlos, whose palace was
near the church. We had seen him riding
out in state the day before.
Our feelings in leaving Venice were those
of most others who have been there. Only
the knowledge that our tour abroad was
limited and chat the old world had many
another treasure city which we should visit
reconciled us to pay our last homages tt
