have ever before occupied here. A part
Of these quarters are devoted to the
use of a training school for women
officers, and the requirements for ad.
mission and promotion are quite as
strict, in their way, as is Uncle Sans
military establishment. A committee
passes upon every candidate for admis.
sion to this school. She must have
good health; her character must be
above question, and she must have
more than usual intelligence. The
course at the school occupies not less
than 16 weeks. and during that time
she gets nothing save her board, and
must cook her own meals. The course
includes theology, oratory, letter-writ-
ing. the preparation of reports, the
rules and regulations of the army,
the general work of the army, such as
It's rescue and charitable features.
After they have graduated from the
school they are placed ON the army
pay rolls for the small amount given
officers. and out of this they must pro-
vide their living and clothing and for
this small wage must labor in the
streets collecting funds to carry on
the work; must sell War Crys in the
business offices, stores and saloons;
must hold street services; must go into
the poverty-stricken homes of the
poor, and assist in the housework of
invalid mothers.
1t is women with such a training as
this who go into the slums and dives
of the city and drag from them the
comparatively few who are rescued.

cheap dance halls under the name of
Dancing Academies" and with tough
saloons with partitioned rooms,
The dance halls into which women
are admitted with or without escorts
at the small price of ten cents each,
are attractive to class of girls who
go there with no intention of inten-
tional wrong-doing, but who find in
them, as rule, the first step in down
ward course which has no end.
These places are patronized extern
sively by servant girls and by shop
girls, young things of 20 and less.
Many of them are girls from the coun-
try drifted cityward in hopes of find
ing opportunities that will place them
socially above their home companions.
Once they have entered the doors of
these places but few ever return to
their homes in the country.
These Twenty-second street dives,
made famous by half a dozen divorce
cases in Chicago courts, are but typ
ical of those to be found in other
sections of the city, though it is on
the South and North sides of the

In New York one evening a friend
compared that city and Chicago by
saying; "New York is fast and Chi
cago is tough" That, ] think, ex-
presses it. New York, with all its
boasted wickedness, would not per-

there, but it is not so Haunted in the
eyes Of the innocent as it is in Chi
cago.

GETTYSBURG.
Fortieth Anniversary Of the Great Battle

Forty years ago the citizens Of
Pennsylvania were anxiously waiting
TO see what fortune the chances OF
war would allot them. At that time
everything looked bad for the Union
forces, but the events of the next few
days, eliminating in the Historic Bat
tie Of Gettysburg, virtually declared
"The Union one and indivisible."
1t is claimed by many historians
that this battle fought July Ist, ed
and Sd, 1868, was the critical, decl-
sive engagement of the contest, and
the "high water mark" showing the
extreme point reached by Pickett's
Virginians in their famous charge, is
in reality the high water mark in the
tide of the rebellion. Thereafter it
was all ebb tide with the Southern
cause.
To accommodate visitors during
the Anniversary days, the Philadelphia
