quarters and an hour later tbe soldiers
were iu position drawn up in company
fronts by regimonts. When tho gov

truly impressive appearance. The
lurge parade ground was one-fourth of
a mile square, and about it were
massed thousands of spectators, while
the hill at division headquarters, over
looking the parade ground, was
thronged with onlookers. The weather
was almost perfect. General Gobin's
Third brigade had the right of line,
tbe Eighth regiment being the that to

returned to moss with relics galore,
They all declare that they found them,
but it is safe to bet that tbe majority
came into possesion of their prized
souvenirs of the battlefield through
tbe medium of coin of the realm.
Richard Beamish and James Moir, jr ,

what be saw at the onckm.imeut.
"The men huve the soldier, spirit

and promptness in obeying orders have
nothing to learn from the regulars I

President Cleveland was pre von ted
from attending tbe encampment by the

A report to the effect tnat the pro

Wednesday, but it proved to be un
founded. Provost Marshal Green iu
speaking about the rumor to The
Tribune representative laid:
"I bave no doubt that tbe members
of the guard and poseibly u portion of
the citizen would like to tee the gnard
withdrawn, but no such aotion will be
taken. General Snowden bas entire
charge of this matter and will counten
ance no such action. Tue dignity of
the gnard must be preserved and it can
only b done by enforcing proper
measures to preserve discipline and the
gnard will remain until tue end of the
encampment. Ouly one or two cases
of infraction of the law by soldiers
has been brought to my attention and
I consider the conduct of tbe soldiers
very good indeed. Proper precautions
though must be observed.
Adjutant General Greeulind also
stated that the guard will not be with
drawn.

Lieutenant Frank Robllnu received a
largo box from ex-Sheriff Rjbinson Wed
nesday which contained a little of every
thing from chewing gum to razors. It ar
rived at a time when the stock in the

ou the outskirts of the camp. The build
ing is known historically as Longstreet's
nonpitHl and contains many indentions
made by bullets during the battle. A
place where a shell tore a large hole in the
side of the building can easily be deter
mined oy tne patching tunt bas been done
to repair the breech.
Quartermaster Tracy says that the state
rations were probably never worse than
they are this year. A lot of beef had to be
condemned on Wednesday. Major Cool
baugh, the commicsary of the Third brig
ade, was talking to Major Mattes vestor-
day nbout the excellence of the rations.
"Ihere are no flies npon them." said the
dignified major with considerable satisfac
tion. 'I don't know nbout that." retorted
Major Mattes. "There were nlentv of
Hies on the beef Compauy A, of the Tnir
teenth, got today, so much that the beef
bad to be burled."
Major Coolbaugh did not again refer to
flies. ' J " ,:
Sergeant John Moir, of Company C. was
anxious to have au opportunity to view
the eights of Gettysburg and as the bono
ot obtaining a pass was meagre he resorted
to euDlerluzc Captains bave the privi
lege of going to and from town without
question so Moir obtained a captain's coat
und cap. gave his moustachn a proper mili
tary waxing and started. He was the most
soldierly looking peraonage in the town
ana ought nave passed tor anything from
a ui 'sion ttatt otucer down. As be passed
the i tlitary patrols he received tne salute
due ..Is rnuk until he met one careless
guard who saluted him ia a balf-hearted
manner. . "Captain" Jack would tolerate
nothing of thut kind and. assuming hie
most serious tone, wanted to Kujw if
"that wus tho war he had been taucut to
salute nn olllcerf" "I I dou'tknow whether
I was everehown the right way or not,"
replied the guard with troubled counten
ance, ilust then a corporal ot the guard
rushed to the sceue and made haste to ex
plhin that the guard was a new recruit aud
bad not been.instruoted as to tbe proper
salute. "You'd better take him arouud
ou a side street, then, and show him tbe
salute, We cp.n't tolerate such an exhibi
tion on a public street. It would briug
tbe National guard into disrepute," se
verely said Mr. Moir.- "All right, cap
tain," said the corporal, saluting, as he
dragged the unfortunate recruit into an
adjoining nlleywuv. Half an hour later
Captain Moir passed the same guard again.
This time the latter was prepared. He
straightened out, hold head erect aud.
with his bund held on a level with his
shoulder, gave a salute that would bave
done credit to a regular. Captain Moir
smiled approvingly, commended the uiaa
and passed ou.

of Company D, is one ot the bard working
and invaluable members of that organiza
