and soon after the rain ceased falling
the regiment wao called out fur dress

the 'boys did :.ot 'make as creditable a
showing as they otherwise would.
Today the camp was visited by
thousands of vtsUors, and with the
camp meeting pi-ojile and Cbautau
quans they viewed the dres parade.
It was an Imposing sight, and the fine
maivhlng and perfect evolutions of the
sokliers were frequently greeted by ap
plause. Much dissatisfaction U ex
pressed by th? tnem'bers of the guard
bociusv the Chautauquans have re

Colonel H. A. Coursen Is showing that

The fact that he was the last colon?) to

There is one man who is greatly
mtesed in Camp Curtin, and that Is
Major Millar, formerly adjutant of the
Thirteenth. He was one of the most
painstaking of officials, thoroughly prac
tical and business-like in his method of
transacting business, and did much to
assist the regiment In keeping at the

The Thirteenth was the last regi
ment 1n the brigade to arrive in camp.
It was 6.30 when they reached Mount
Gretna. The Ninth regiment, which
left Wllkes-Barre on hour later, arriv
ing here about an hour earlier. The
boys Immediately went to work to com
plete Hie arrangements for their com
fort, which the advance had neglected.
Owing to the unaccountable delays
which have been exterefnely frequent,
the lumber was not issued promptly,
and, with the exception of Company T,
no company received Its tent floors
until nrarly noon.
Breakfast was served at o'clock, and
at 9 o'clock the camp was formally
opened. The brigade appeared on the
camp ground, and as the signal open
ing CampCurtln was ftred the members,
with uncovered heads, saluted the flag.
This constituted the opening cere

There were no restrictions placed on
the advance guard. They were allowed
to roam at their own sweet will, always
providing that the work was done.
They didn't wander far from their own
fireside.

Senator Quay Is Evidently Rowing
Against a Tide That Is Too Strung.
Philadelphia. July 51. Te effect of
tho four successive Quay defeats In
Lackawanna and Sullivan counties,
both of them Quay counties for many
years, taken with hi absolute failure
to win a uVk'gwte so far anywhere,
while claiming that he would carry the
state outside of Philadelphia and Pitts
burg almost solid, la taken by observing
politicians here to forecast 'his early re
tirement from the battle he has pro
voked. It la an open secret that Sena
tor Cameron is putting up the money
for the Quay tight, and he has plenty of
It to spend, but he Is a Scotchman who
puts a short limit on the money he will
waste on a bad bargain. In a fight that
is so clearly lost.
Quay cannot cut loose from him and
continue the right as a personal one of
his own, becaiwe he has to have Cam
eron's money help, and holds Lancaster
and the hoie of Dauphin only because
these are Cameron counties and will
give their delegates to Quay only to
serve Don.
Even Quay's friends here acknowl
edge that another wet'k like the last,
with a succession of defeats Instead of
victories, will bung up Cameron's bar
rel: and force Quay to call off his fight
and let the party have peace.

Prominent Republicans of Susquehanna
County Object to the llartor Recently
Made by Certain Leaders and Senator
,UBV.
Special to the Soranton Tribune.
Montrose, Pa., July 21. A number of
prominent Republicans of this town
have announced themselves as opposed
to the bargain recently made by the
Quayites with their leader to deliver
the Susquehanna county delegate for
Quay at the state convention. This
bargain, which was made in the Wyo
ming house, Soranton, during Mr.
Quay's vUU to that city, is repudiated
'by the new Hastings faction not only
because of their opposition to Mr. Quay
but because they as reputable and
sensible business men have been
pledged without authority to assist by
their votrs to send to the county con
vention delegates who will choose a
Quay delegate for the state conven
tion. Prominent among the anti-Quay ele
ment are: Captain H. F. Beardsley, At
torney C. A. Van Wormer, H. L. Beach,'
president of the Flrat National bank;
Attorney T. J. Davles, O. A. Gilbert,
V. R. Lathrop and many others. These
gentlemen have devised a plan of cam
paign which givea promise that the
coming county convention will com
prise 'more Hastings delegates than
would have been the case had the bar
gainers been permitted to carry out
their deal with Mr, Quay and vote all
the Republicans-in the county like so
many sheen
It can be set down as a safe fact that
Susquehanna county's delegate will not
vote for Quay.

bating In his jnlr.d what course to pur
iue, the girl returned and passed him a
second time. On previous occasion he
had awakened his daughter by dashing
cold water In her face, and he hastened'
to the house and procured a cupful,

and dismounted, and Ju t as she wat
en:er!cg the gate Farmer Smiley threw
the contents of the cup ln her face.
There was a wild shriek, the sleeping
cyclist awoke and fell to the ground.
In a few moments, however, all was

William Thacker. Thacker was whip
ping his sister with a rawhide when
Mateny Interfered. Thacker then
turned on Mateny. Mateny shot him
dead. Mateny Is out on $r,000 bond.
Both men stood well In the community.
Thacker was drunk when he made the
assault on his sister.
At Quicksand, Dick Oliver stabbed
Svim Fltzpatiick to death. They were
at a dance, and whiskey flowed freely.
It seems that Oliver captured one of
the young ladles from Fltzpatrlck. Ol
iver drank because of his conquest, and
Fltzpatrlck drank because of his defeat.
About the time both became thoroughly
drunk th?y met In the ballroom. Oliver

floor In ten minutes. Oliver escaped
and Is now In hldtng somewhere In the
mountains. A large posse Is In pur
suit. On Peter Creek, not far from here,
