Iowa woman's Relief Corps.

EDIToR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: In the
Department of Iowa there are 227 we'll
| organized Corps, with live, energetic
working membership that falls little
short of 10000. The Department officers
during the past year were intelligent, pa
triotic and enthusiastic in their work.
They. with the willing working members
of the local Corps, are doing much to al
leviate the sufferings of the veterans who
so freely risked their lives in defense of
their country, and flag in those troublous
years from '61 to go.
These veterans are fast growing old.
They are grizzled and gray. Their forms
are no longer erect. Some are suffering
from disease incurred in camp; others torn
by shot and shell on the bloody field OF
battle, are now, in their old age, in need
of the comforts as well as the necessaries
Of life, and this patriotic Order is doing a
grand and glorious work by relieving the
wants of these comrades, and their de-
pendent families.
Different methods are used to raise
funds for this purpose. Not long since
Kinsman Corps, "a, Des Moines, gave a
patriotic entertainment. Present on this
occasion were Gov. Cummins; Gen. Given,
a veteran of two wars; Capt. ]. A. 7.
Hull, Congressman from the 7th Congress
sional District; G.. G. Thornburg, County
Superintendent of Public Schools. and
Hon. Lafe Young, of the Des Moines
Daily Capital, who gladly and freely gave
this entertainment success. This en-
tertainment netted the Corps close on to
$50, all of which will be used for the
relief of the veterans.-JENNIE FL. TROUT,

Ohio w.R.c. Convention.

The Goth Annual Conveflion of the W.
R. c.. Department of Ohio was held in
the historic city of Marietta, O., May 12-
10. The citizens of the town made every
effort possible and it was evidenced that
visitors enjoyed every hour allotted them
to make the affair a success. The Con-
vention was one of the largest held in
years, almost 400 delegates answering to
roll call. Many important questions were
discussed and decisions rendered. The De-
partment President, Ellen W. Applebaugh,
presided over the Convention in an able,
graceful, digniied manner, winning the ad-
miration of all. Her support for re-elec-
ton was strong, but in her usual womanly
way she declined reelection.
The Department was never in better
condition as regards both finances, and
membership. Eleven thousand one hum
dred and fifty members, with S2,779 in
the treasury. The year just closed has
been a very successful one. The retiring
President was the recipient of many beau
tifui gifts from staff and admiring friends,
with numerous flowers. Truly it was good
to be there. The newly-elected officers are:
President, Hannah Gahagan, Troy, O.; S.
V. P, Lotta Sprague. Marietta, o.; ]. V.
P. Mary Alice Bell, Carthage, O.; Treas,
Olive G. Williams, Troy, O.; Chaplain,
Sarah Hughes, GAINESVILLE, o.
The prospects for the coming year for
this Department are very fattering. and
it is to be hoped equally as successful az

bridges. culverts, depots and warehouses.
The various commanders reported the de-
struction by fire of 81. $50 bales of cotton;
a large number of cotton-gins were de-
stroyed, the cavalry alone reporting 2I1.
There was taken for the use OF the army
fully 115,OO0 bushels of corn and the
equivalent in fodder; 1924 beef cattle
were captured en- route. The army left
Atlanta with 3,4I6 cattle and reached
savannah with 6,S61 beeves. At least
6O0,OOO pounds of pork and mutton was
taken and large quantities of flour. rice
and sweet potatoes; poultry was abun-
dant, and was taken without stint 1t
was totally impracticable to have pro-
visions, grain and forage to supply the
men and animals for the campaign. The
exigencies of the military situation re-
quired that the army should live off of the
country. and it did. and lived bountifully.
This was not new principle in war; it
was as old as war itself.
In old, thickly-settled countries, as in
Europe, the practice has often been
adopted by military commanders OF max
ing re1uisition upon captured cities OF
both supplies and money, and by this
means not only feed but pay their armies.
| 1t is a well-settled rule of war that every
act necessary for success is lawful where
it does not violate the laws OF humanity.

GOING TO THE ENCAMpMENT.
The Needful Equipment is Railway Ticket,
$50, and an overcoat.

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: Some OF
the comrades incredulously inquire: Were
you sincere in the statement recently
made in The National Tribune that a
comrade going to the Encampment need
provide himself with nothing more than
railway ticket and S2OT'
Loving the principles of the q. A. L.,
would not mislead a comrade. l GER
tainly meant exactly what l said. but !!
should have added that the comrades will
be more comfortable if they bring their
overcoats. Here at the Golden Gate the
August evenings are cool.
OF course, a comrade with more than
800 can indulge in longer excursions and
enjoy more of the beauty and picturesque
mess of California scenery. However, S2O,
discreetly dispensed, will supply necessary
wants and enable one to have reason
ably p,easurable time.
When the comrades arrive at San Fran
cisco they must not express surprise nor
think us extravagant when they find that
there is no coin less than nickel IN cir-
cuIation. Copper cents are unknown.
Twenty-Five cents is two bits" 90 cents
| is "four bits" and 70 cents is six bits"
We Californians have lingo of our own.
The visitor must conform to 1t or be de-
nominated ''tenderfoot."
We want every comrade to come and
have a ''high old time" The Encamp-
ment date IS IN the mlddle Oh the run
season the time when the market is
overloaded with peaches, pears. grapes,
pomegranates, cantaloupes, muskmelons,
watermelons and other fruits too numer-
Gus to mention. There will be excursions
to the Santa Clara fruit growing valley,
and, dear comrades, while you are ram
bling around come over to Berkeley and

Fifty-fve members of Gen. Daniel E..
Sickles's famous Second n. ]. Brigade
greeted their old commander at the An
nual Reunion of the Association at Tren-
ton, N. j., April 8. At the business meet
ing the following officers were elected:
President, Capt Walter A. Barrows,

took no text in particular, bps submitted
the four following propositions for discus
sion:
First The design and intent Of wa
ter baptism.
Second. Who were the Divinely-ap-
pointed administrators of water baptism!
Third. The proper mode OF water bap-
tism.
Fourth. Who were the qualified sub
jects Of baptism?
my Baptist minister took his seat in
the altar, in front Of me. He listened with
tolerab,e attention while was on the first
and second propositions. As approached
the third point, the CALLED jade WINGED
little; but when l came to the fourth point,
and took the position that al infants had
the first and only unquestionable title to
baptism, and that all adults must become
converted, and be like little children, be-
fore they could claim any valid title to
water baptism, my preacher became very
restive. Finally, I propounded this ques-
ton: Is not that Church which has no
children in it more like hell than heavenE 2
l then added: If all hell was searched,
there would not be single child found
in it; but all children are in heaven; there
fore, there being no children in the Baptis:
Church, it was more like hell than heaven.
''The Baptist preacher here rose to his
feet and started. / called out to him to
stop and hear me out; but he replied he
could not stand it, and kept on and cleared
the ground; so he lost his suit of clothes.
and I gained one. But what was much
better than all this, 1 was listened to for
three hours; and the attention of the mul-
titude seemed not to falter, but they heard
with profound interest, and it was the gen
eral opinion that this discussion did vast
amount of good" .
