SOLDIER BOYS LEAVE US.
They Have Gone lo Philadelphia to Par
ticipate in Dedication of the Wash
ington Monument.
By this time the people of the great
est city of the commonwealth of Penn
sylvania and the thousands of others
who have flocked thither to witness the
unveiling of the Washington monu
ment in Fairmont park, are permitted
to feast their eyes upon the llnest body
of the soldiery that goes to make up
the National guard of tho aforesaid
greatest commonwealth In tho Union.
Tho regiment In question left here
yesterday afternoon at 3.45 o'clock
from the Delaware and Hudson sta
tion. It required eleven cars to carry
tho soldiers and their baggage, nnd
the horses which some of the field
and staff took along that they might
not again undergo the humiliation of
straddling prancing charges that stop
every time they hear a bell rung or
when they see a girl coming out of a
house with n milk pitcher.
The cars were furnished by the Le
high Valley company, over whose lines
the greater part of the journey will
be made. From Seranton the route
mis over the Delaware and Hudson to
AVilkes-Barre; thence over the Lehigh
Valley to Penn Junction, where the
Reading was taken for Philadelphia
The regiment was landed at the Rend
ing terminal station, whence they pa
raded to the First Regiment armory
corner of Broad and Callowhlle streets,
where they are to be quartered with
the Eighth regiment.
The companies turned out In good
numbers and will no doubt make an
excellent showing In today's parade.
Colonel H. A. Coursen, Lieutenant Col
onel C. C. Mattes, Major George II.
Whitney, of the First Battalion; Major
F. W. Stlllwell, of the Second Batta
ion; Regimental Adjutant L. T. Mat

First Battalion; Adjutant R. W. Stra
ton, of the Second Battalion; Surgeons
C. R. Parke and W. E. Keller and In
spector of Itlffe Practice H. B. Cox,
of the field and stiff, nil accompanied.
Quartermaster W. J. Tracy went down
Thursday to prepare things In ad
vance. Each company commander was in
attendance with the exception of Cap
lain Frank Robllng, Jr., of Company
C, whose duties as chief of police
would not permit of his making tho
trip. First Lieutenant W. A. Raub
had charge of the company.
Bauer's band was taken along and
wl'h the eglment's excellent drum
corps will furnish music that it Is safe
to say will not be far from being as
good as the best that will be heard
along the line of march.
Uncle John A"mermnn, as usual, ac
companied the regiment as a guest of
headquarters.
