Veterans Stand Heat Well.

Inere were no otner reasons Tor
army rejoicing, for all indications
pointed to another unusually hot day.
The sun wasn't over the hills an hour
when the mercury was around the
80 mark and promised to soar much
higher. The veterans have stood the
heat in wonderful fashion in the opin-
ion of the medical men, but any time
there is a protracted hot spell scores
of real prostrations may result.
This was military day" in the big
tent with Colonel Andrew Cowan of
Louisville presiding. Major General
John r. Brooke of Pennsylvania was
the Northern orator of the day and
Sergeant John G. Scarborough OF
North Carolina, the silver tongued de-
fender of the South. To Barry Bulkley
of Washington, ID. c., was given the
honor of reading Lincoln's Gettysburg
address.
One of the unadvertised reunions OF
the celebration occurred In the Con-
federate section of the camp. A fife
and drum corps of men in blue
tramped up and down the streets of
the Confederate part of the city Of
tents. They stopped before the tents,
played such a fanfare as only drums
and fifes can make, summoned forth
the occupants and shook hands, threw
their arms about the gray shoulders
and in a dozen other ways showed
their feelings of friendship. They kept
1t up for hours and hours and visited
practically every "reb" tent. Their
reception was as warm as their greet
ing.

Gettysburg, Pa, July 3.-The tide of
invasion turned back from Gettysburg
and the armies of the blue and gray
began to melt away under the COM
pelling influence of a torrid sun and
the discomforts of camp life. General
Hunter Light, U. s. A.. in command
of the camp, estimated that more than
5000 veterans have gone.
Most of them have looked over the
battlefield, shaken hands with COM
rades they knew in other regiments,
got another glimpse of their friends,
the 'rebs," and left for home. The
regular army men were not sorry to
see the thousands go, for the camp
was crowded beyond capacity and
hundreds of old men were being quar-
tered in tents that were made for cir
cuses but not for sleeping purposes.
Scores slept on the ground and al
though the cooks made strenuous ef-
forts the mess tables did not groan
