The Illinois Enenmnment.

The E2d Annual Encampinent of the
Department of Illinois was held at
Quincy, Ill. May 20 and 81, 1903. The
location being at one side of the State
and the further fact that no concession
in rates was made by the railroads. had
the effect TO somewhat lessen attend
ance as compared with former years.
However. there were good delegations
from some parts of the State, about 500
delegate badges being given out One
Of the attractions of Quincy is the mag
nificent State Soldiers Home. At the
time of the Encampment about 1850
members were present. During the
Winter the number in the Home often
reaches LOO. Two large buildings are
nearly completed, in which it is expect
ed to provide for about $50 couples, as
the State of Illinois proposes to here
after provide A place where the aged
veteran and his wife may spend their
days together. instead of permitting the
soldier to go TO the Home and his good
wife to be sent to the poorhouse.
hospital has been provided for the wo-
men. The cottages are now being fur
nished and by Midsummer will be ready
for occupancy. A huge campfire, pre-
liminary to the Encampment, was held
on the evening of May 10, at which ad-
dresses were made by the Governor of
the State, Chaplain-in- Chief Fallows
and others. One of the very pleasant
events of the evening was the presenta-
ton of s1,367.G0 In money to the treas
ury of the Department This contribu-
ton was in the nature o. a Jubilee
fund" the donors being the Woman's
Relief Corps of Illinois, and came as a
surprise TO the great body of comrades
IT seems that the good women, having
aided largely in securing the splendid
fund given 10 the National Encampment
mt Saratoga last year, made up their
minds that something might be done
for their own Department. The Corps
were appealed to. with the result indi-
Gated The Encampment was without
any very exciting events, altho there
was spirited contest between the three
candidates for Department Command
