THE SONG OF MoReAN's MEN


(ClintOn Scollard in Leslie's)
As clear as a morn in May
Above us hung the winter day.
AS soft as on an eve IN spring
The winter wind went whispering.
Beneath the shadow or the pines
In silence stood our valiant lines,
Holding in lesh their burning zeal,
until the signal note should peal
Then oh,how brave the bugle blewi
How fair the tattered banners flew
And how from hearts whore hope
famed high
Remember Camden rose ourcry.
All, sweet beneath The southern sun
TO see the hated red-coats nun
In one swift sweep to ride them
down,
And smite them sorely, hip and crown
Twas butcher Tarleton" waves
his sword,
Twas butcher Ia Teton ragged and
roared,
Twas butcher Tarletonp vainly wed
To stem our rushing onset tide
Louder and louder rang our shout,
And faster ran the red-coat rout,
Til DER MS hoyered, winging free,
The pond war-eaglc4-Vi Victory.
Though love and life to us were
dear,
We held them lightly laughed at
fear,
Striking for home and country: then

pared for one OF the bitterest struggles

predictions Of Theodore Roosevelt.
1T is quite true" said Mr.. Woodruff,
that we nave lost some delegates from
districts we had reason TO expect would
support MI. Sherman, but as an offset
to these losses we have assurances
from other quarters that delegates
claimed by the Progressives will be
recorded in the Sherman column. l am

will be elected"

ATLANTIC CITY. Sept. 24.-At the
closing session of the G. A. r. encamp-
ment here a knot of western insur-
gents fought three hours for the adop-
ton of a resolution calling upon Con-
gress to remove the statue of General
Robert E, Lee from Statuary Hall, but
lost their battle.
They c~apitulated only after the reso-
luton around which they rallied was
laid upon the table by a small majority
102 voting for and 1873 against it's adop-
ton.
The agitation to merge the Blue and
the Gray in one great body of veterans
through the initiative of the Grand
Army. was dismissed when the national
encampment, after an impassioned ad-
dress by General Louis Wagner, OF
Philadelphia, gave cheering indorse-
ment to the plan for a reunion of the
survivors of the armies of the North
and the South at Gettysburg in 1918, or
the occasion of the fiftieth anniversary
