the immense business being done by
the quartermaster corps of the Penn
sylvania troops, says that he is en-
joying every minute of the work.
Colonel Trexler, who is one of the
wealthiest men in Pennsylvania, has
given up all his private business and
is working day and night to keep the
States soldiers supplied with food
and other things, sleeping at night
in tent on the arsenal grounds
and using his own automobiles on
the business of the army. The COL
onel seems to be having an even
better time than when he was at
Mt. Gretna last year.
