Washington, Oct. 2.--Charles E. Ma

Rechabites Wants Canteen Restored.

The resolutions favoring the restc-
ration Of the army eanteen for the sale
Of beer and light wines to soldiers
under proper restrictions, nnani-
mousiy adopted by Advance tent, In
dependent Order Of Rech abites, Of
Washington, D. c., aroused great
interest in temperance circles.
M any members of this order are men
who have served Ia the army and
know all about the evil effects OF ex.
cessive drinking from personal experi-
ence, and they realize that the abnli-
tion of the capteen is responsible for
the increase of drunkenness among
soldiers.
Under present conditions the soldier
drinks at low resorts on the outskirts
of army posts, without any restrictions
whatever. With the canteen, as ad-
vocated by the Rechabites, he will
drink under government supervision
and restrictions, making over-indu1-
gelC6 Impossible.
II addition, the Rechabites propose
that the government, in framing the
canteen law, should discriminate
strongly 10 favor of beer, which has q
very small percentage OF alcohol, and
light wines. It is believed that the SOL
der will be satisfied with these bev-
erages obtained under favorable con-
ditions, and that he will be lesa
likely TO indulge in vile and ardent
liquors than at present.
The action of the Reehabites has the
support Of army officers and military
organizations. The Spanish ar Vet.
erans. at their recent annual conven-
ton, unanimously directed the legisla-
tive committee to press congress for the
restoratio OF the cauteen.
The Rech abites maintain that by
making il possible for soldiers to OBJ
tain such comparatively harmless
liquors as beer and light wines under
government regulations, the cause Of
true temperance will be better upheld
than By driving them to low resorts
beyond the government reserv atoms.

BATTLE or MANSFIELD.
Continued from First Page.

Turning to Captain Field. I said:
captain. we are going to make
charge; we are far yet: let us go
closer.
"I am at your orders, Captain;
give the command, he replied.
" ordered Double quick! Let us
go at the fence.
1--WE halted about forty yards from
the fence, in front of about $500 in
fantry Of the enemy, and there we
held them in check until we made
them prisoners just before sundoWn.
Captain Field was shot down before
we had gone ten or twelve steps. This
was a great loss.
"A little while after the Twenty
eighth Regiment came up to my line,
having lost in killed and wounded all
their field officers, except their adju-
tant. Two OF their color bearers also
were killed or wounded. The regi-
ment laid down. My first sergeant,
Ellie Gagnier, asked me leave TO go
and rally them. Leave was granted.
He started at a run, picked up their
flag and called on them to follow. But
it was not for long. He was wounded
above the ankle and disabled, and the
flag was handed to Adjutant Black
man, who had been acting as adjutant
of the division and who rallied the
regiment and charged through the
enemy's lines, routing them.
1T was at this time l was shot
through the upper part Of my right
thigh, the hall passing between the
main artery i u the bone. My second
lieutenant, j. s. Webre, lost his right
arm; my third lieutenant, Francois
Gagnier, was shot above the knee;
and my color bearer was killed. His
name was Benoit Beth ancourt. Many
others were killed and wounded. Two
men from the Twenty-eighth tried to
carry me from the field. The one on
my left was shot; the other tried to
raise me but was not able. I ordered
him to his command, and was picked
up at sundown by four of my own men
and brought to the hospital at 10
O'Clock th at night.
tsColonel Armant was killed back OF
me in the charge, and General Mouton
by four of the prisoners just captured,
SO was told. Those two officers were
both great losses. The whole line Of
the enemy was routed.
ssOur division captured about 26OO
prisoners, about 300 wagons, 22 can
mons and quantities Of small arms
and ammunition. Our loss, killed and
wounded, was about 1900: the enemy 8
loss, 1900. Our army received atsun-
down 5000 or 5000 fresh troops, which
took part next day in the battle OF
Pleasant Hill, where the enemy was
again routed.
"Gen. Taylor, in his history, writes
that in the morning, at Mansfield, q
part of the Eighteenth Regiment opened
fire on the enemy's cavalry and routed
them. It was my company, B, Eight
eenth Louisiana. "A. M. Herbert, q
federal, writes in his History Of the
w ar of Secession, that the Red River
expedition was blunder Of the war
department, and that General Banks.
at Mansfield, had received disas-
trous defeat, losing in that expedition
at least IL, 900 men,
nWhat I write of the battle of Mans
field + have seen with my eyes, and was
told of the disastrous defeat by the
doctor who attended me and my own
man who nursed me. -

Ten-Day Course ID Agriculture.

The Louisiana State University and
A. and NJ. College, located at Baton
Rouge, has decided to establish along
with it's regular ten weeks course in
agriculture a special ten-day course
in the same subject, beginning Jan. 8
and ending Jan. Is, 1907. Concerning
the new course, which promises to
prove exceptionally popular, Col. =.
D. Boyd, the efficient president of the
University, has the following to say:
ssAlthough possible for the young
members OF the farmers family, with
minor responsibilities, to spare the
time to attend ten weeks course, it
might be entirely out Of the question
for the farmer himself to be absent
from his daily work that length OF
time.
'sThere are very few, however. who
could not spare ten days, or two weeks
out Of every year, by making the nee
essary arrangements ahead OF time.
ssIt is the intention of the University
to devote the ten days of this course
exclusively to judging and demonstra at
ing, and without any ordinary class
work or book work connected with it.
In short, the entire time during the
ten days will be taken up with prac-
tice, pure and simple. So far as ar
ranged, the topics which will be con-
sidered are as follows:
Stock judging-This will include
judging and demonstrating the points
Of typical farm animals, such as the
horse, beef and dairy cattle and hogs.
Typical animals will be secured for
this week.
Corn iudging-A part of the time
will be taken up with the judging OF
ear corn, the special points of excel
lence ia different varieties, also in
ears of the same variety, as we'll as
the undesirable features.
ssCotton ju1ging-Owing to the i'm
portance OF early maturing varieties
of cotton at the present time, this plant
will receive special reconsideration. The
quality and staple of the different
early varieties will be demonstr ated,
also their proficiency, and every point
will be brought out in order to
familiarize the class with whatever
advantages and disadvantages each
may possess.
Forage crops-The University ex-
pertinent station has an excellent va
riety of forage crops which were espe-
cially collected and prePared for ex-
hibition at the state fair. These will
be available for demonstration work,
and those in attend ance will be af-
forded the opportunity OF seeing and
becoming familiar with the most i'm
portant crops OF this character grown
| in Louisiana.
'sThe dairy-The University has a
model dairy on the grounds, equipped
with all the necessary and np-to date
requirements for such branch of in
dustry. Besides Jersey herd, which
| will be used for demonstr alton work
in dairy cattle, everything connected
with their proper handling, the stable,
creamery, utensils, ETC., will be shown
| and explained, and special attention
will be directed to the methods OF
handling the products, balancing the
food rations, etc.
I'm fact, the entire agricultural col
