DEATH OF PRIVATE ROTH.

Ooursen Has Returned to Camp.
Married Men In a Flurry Over the
Latest War Department Order.
Kelly Read Hlo Obituary.
Special to the Scranton Tribune.
Camp Meade, Mlddletown, Pa., Sept.
27. The death rate of the Thirteenth
still goes higher. Lieutenant Colonel
Mattes this morning received a mes
sage from Colonel Glrnrd, the corps
surgeon, notifying him of tho fact thnt
a letter had been sent to corps head
quarters from the Pottsville City hos
pital bearing news of the death of
Private Henry Roth, of Company C.
IWhen the notlca reached here it read
us though the death occurred this
morning early but this must have
been a mistake. The death took place
on Monday morning at fifteen min
utes after 1 o'clock. Tills makes tho
eleventh death In the regiment.
Prlvato Roth was taken sick on the
twelfth of the present month, nnd was
tnken to division hospital. From there
Jho was removed to Pottsvillo on the
17th. Typhoid fever was the cause of
His death. Deceased was the son of
Henry Roth, of Archbald, and was
among tho first number of recruits,
having been mustered in with the
regiment at Mount Gretna on May 12.
He was a good soldier, 25 years old
and up to his last illness never knew
what it was to be sick. Transporta
tion will be furnished for the remains,
and members of the regiment now
borne on furloughs will toe present at
the funeral.
Hon. 'William Conncll paid a short
visit to camp this evening, but remaln
d only n few minutes. Ho left for
Harrisburg and Scranton.
Colonel Coursen arrived tonight in
camp, having left his wife and his son,
Adjutant Coursen, of the Second bat
talion, quite seriously sick at home.
The boys sincerely sympathize with
him.
Five months ago this evening the
boys bade adieu to home and friends.
IX A QUANDItV.
The members of the Third brigade,
and f .the Thirteenth regiment in
particular, aro in a quandary and are
quite nonplussed as to their prospects.
At the brigade headquarters it Is seml
authointlvely stated that not onlv is
the removal of the Second army corps
to Cuba or Porto Rico a foregone con
clusion, but also that the movement of
the troops from here' will bo begun
not later than the sixteenth of next
month. Tho men are, therefore, rest
ing on their oars, so to speak, and are
waiting patiently Mlcawber-llke, for
"something to turn up."
The married men of the Thirteenth
were In a flurry last night and this
morning owing to a message which the
commanding officers of the regiments,
in common with several others of the
regimental commanders, have received
from Adjutant General H. C. Corbln,
requiring a statement to be made forth
with to tho war department in rela
tion to the number of men in each
company who are married. Lieutenant
Colonel Mattes, who is commanding
the Thirteenth in the absence of Colonel
Coursen, has been looking into the mat
ter and has given directions to the
captains to ascertain and to submit
the quota of married men. The work
was begun last night and the report
will be, no doubt, forwarded to the
war deportment' in a day or two. The
men seem to think that this means
Jfcose who are married jand desire
to go home will, as a matter of course,
receive their discharge from the ser
vice. MADE HAPPY.
If the boys were presented with a
newly coined gold piece they could not
be any happier than they were yester
day afternoon when the latest orders
for drills were published. The chief
jollification, however, was not exactly
due to the fact that drills ore to be
resumed and somewhat lengthened out
but because on account of the long
nights and the lateness of the sun in
rising, they are now allowed to sleep
more in the morning. The new sched
ule Is as follows: First call for reveille
6. a. m., reveille 6.15, assembly for roll
call 6.20, breakfast 6.30, general polic
ing of camp 7.00, sick call 7.30, guard
mount 8.00, drill, school of the soldier
9.30, recall for drill 11.00, dinner 12 m,
drill, school of tho battalion, 3. p. m
recall for drill 4.30, dress parade E.00,
supper 6.00, tattoo 0.00, call to quarters
0.16, Taps 9.30.
In addition to this one half hour
each day is to bo given to calisthenlc
exercises. This new order of drills is
to go Into effect at once.
The water supply is now complete.
The pipes were laid yesterday and
connected and at seven o'clock in the
evening the flow was turned on. There
Is ono pump for every two companies,
una tnis morning small water troughs
were placed under the pumps to carry
the waste water down the incline a
short distance, where it is lost in tho
ground in a four foot square area,
which was excavated and filled with
stones. A wooden platform built
around each pump adds to the conven
ience. Nothing now remains to be ds
elred in this respect.
RKAD HIS OBITUARY.
It Is not often that a man has the
opportunity of enjoying the grim hum
or of reading his own obituary, but
such was the case here yesterday. The
Sunday mall arrived at noon and the
letters were distributed at once. Sitting
on the ground near the open-air kit
chen lire, tho "Thirteenth's nlghtlng
gale," as he has been nppnprlutely
called, Edward J. Kelly, of company
C, but now attached to the regimental
hospital corps, was eatln-j dinner with
a few companions. A letter was hand
ed him, and, to his astonishment, lo
read a news clipping from the "White
Haven Journal, containing an elaborate
account of his own death from typhoid
fever at Camp Meade and comments as
to his age and his many good qualities.
The boys Immediately carried the joke
still further, and pretending that tho
hospital steward before them and eat
ing hard tack was his own ghost, they
jumped up, ran away from him nnd
refused to speak. The article caused
much amusement and is now kept us
on invaluable relic of tho war.
A communication has been received
by regimental commanders specifying
that all orders must bo promulgated
for the benefit of the men, if such or
ders refer to them.
It has been suggested by Lieutenant
Colonel Mnttesftthnt; owing to the cool
damp nlr which prevails evenings, It
might be well to hold the band con
certs in the future at an earlier hour.
The suggestion will be acted upon.
Lieutenant John Keith Is now in com
mand of companyA during tho illness
of Captain Herman nnd Lieutenant
Johnson. He 1b. very popular with the
men of that company.

VISIT OF GOVERNOR LOWNDES.
Ho Made a Careful Examination of
the Pamp.
By Associated Press.
Camp Meade, Mlddletown, Pa., Sept.
27. Governor Lowndes visited the
camp today and found nothing to con
demn. The governor made a careful
inspection of the various regimental
camps, especially that of the First
Maryland, and was delighted with
their location and the arrangements
which have been made for the care
and comfort of the men. He was ac
companied by Mrs. Lowndes and
daughter, Adjutant General Wllmer
and his friends. The party was met
at Harrisburg by Governor Hastings,
Adjutant General Stewart and Secre
tary Beitler and escorted to camp.
An Informal reception was tendered
Major General Graham this afternoon
by Governor Hastings at the executive
department. Tho general went to Har
risburg with his aides, Lieutenants
Sumerhale and Graham, to return the
call made upon him ten days ago by
the executive. Secretary of the Com
monwealth Martin and other state of
ficials were present at the reception,
and both were guests at a dinner given
at the executive mansion by Gover
nor and Mrs. Hastings in honor of
Governor Lowndes' party and General
Graham. The general will probably
return the compliment by giving a re
view in Hastings' honor before the
troops break Camp Meade.
In the event the troops should re
main here during October they will be
supplied with the large conical tents
and stoves. Secretory Alger will de
cide this week whnt shall be done with
them. Chief Quartermaster Howard
has wired the war department that he
must know in order to provide against
cold weather. His answer was that
nothing would be done until Secre
tary Alger's return from his tour of
the southern camps. Major Joseph
Weaver, of Norrlstown, was relieved
by Major Jackson as surgeon In charge
at the Second Division hospital, and
will at once- report for duty as chief
surgeon of the Second division.
CITY TAX APPEALS.
Court Hears Arguments on Motion
to Dismiss Them.
Tho full bench yesterday morning
heard arguments on the motion of
City Solicitor McGInley to dismiss the
recent appeals to court from the tax
assessment on the ground that they
were not filed, as required by law,
within sixty days from the time the
board of revision und appeal refused
to grant them.
Mr. Burns, representing tho appli
cants, showed that the board of re
vision and appeal had kept no min
utes of their meetings and as there
was nothing to show when the appeals
were denied there was no definite time
from which to date the sixty days and
in consequence the appeals could be
made at any time.
Mr. McGInley, against this conten
tion pointed out that as the law
compelled the board to complete its
work before March 1, the plain infer
ence was that the appeals were acted
upon before that date.
Court announced that It woud give
a decision within a few days.
MONTROSE SOLDIER'S FUNERAL
Places of Business Will Close During
the Service.
Montrose will today give signal hon
or, to Private "W. E. Roach, of com

half ago, From the beginning he show
ed his aptitude for mastering the dut
ies and requirements of Rood soldiering.
"While at Camp Alger he was ablo ut
all times to attend to his duties as
first sergeant of G company, though
Your friends may smile
But that tired feeling
Means danger. It
Indicates impoverished
And impure blood.
This condition may
Lead to serious illness.
It should be promptly
Overcome by taking
Hood's Sarsaparilla,
Which purifies and
Enriches the blood,
Strengthens the nerves,
Tones the stomach,
Creates an appetite,
And builds up,
Energizes and vitalizes
The whole system.
Be sure to get
Only Hood's.
DANGER IN SODA.
Sorious Results Sometimes Follow
Its Excessive Uso.
Common soda Is all right In its placo
and Indispensable in the kitchen and
for cooking nnd washing purposes, but
it wns novel intended for a medicine,
and people who use it as such will
some day regret It.
We refer to tho common use of soda
to relieve heartburn or sour stomach, a
habit which thousands of peoplo prac
tice almost dully, nnd ono which is
fraught with danger; moreover tho
soda only gives temporary relief nnd
in the end the stomach trouble gets
worse nnd worse.
The soda acts as a mechanical irrit
ant to tho walls of tho stomach and
bowels nnd eases are on record where
It accumulated In the Intestines, caus
ing death by lnllummatlou or periton
itis. Dr. Harlandsnn recommends as the
safest and surest cure for sour stomach
(acid dyspepsia) an excellent prepara
tion sold by druggists under the name
nf Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. These
tablets are large 20 grain lozengps,
very pleasant to taste and contain tho
natural acids, peptones and digestive
elements essential to good digestion,
nnd when taken after meaH
they digest tho food perfectly and
promptly before It has time to ferment,
sour and poison thu blood and nervous
syntem.
Dr. Wuerth states that he invariably
uses Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets in all
cases of stomach derangements and
finds them n certnln cure not only for
sour stomach, but by promptly digest
ing the food they create a healthy ap
petite, Increase flesh and strengthen
the action of the heart and liver. They
are not a cathartic, but intended only
for stomach diseases and weakness
and will be found reliable in any sto
mach trouble except cancer of the
stomach.
All druggists sell Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets at nOn. per package
A little book describing nil forms of
stomach weakness nnd their cure mail
ed free by addressing tho Stuart Co.,
of Marshall, Mich.
he sometimes complained of attacks
of Illness.
Soon nfter the regiment reached
Camp Meade the deceased be
gan to get sick nnd finally asked to be
relieved of the duties of first sergeant.
Three weeks ngo he was taken down
and soon afterwards was removed to
St. Joseph's hospital, Lancaster, where
he died.
FORGERY IS CHARGED
John J. Lawler and F. L. Randall
Have Been Placed Under Ar
restThey Will Have a
Hearing Today.
. L. Randall and John J. Lawler,
the former accused of forgery and the
latter of being an accomplice, are in
the central police station awaiting a
hearing this morning. The case Is
characterized by only its bungling de
tails. The check alleged to have been
forged by Randall was for only $8.75.
He Is a farmer and lives at Mt. Pocono.
Yesterday afternoon Randall ten
dered the check In payment of a bill
for $3.85 at the clothing store of Rosen
berg Urothers, 225 Lackawanna ave
nue. The check was drawn on the Mer
chants and Mechanics' bunk and was
signed "Moody & Gould Co., Llm.," the
West Side Junk firm. Randall received
$4.90 In change.
One of the firm soon ascertained from
the Moody & Gould Co. that tho check
had been forged. He found Randall
at the American house, on the West
Side, arrested him without a warrant
and brought him to the central police
station, where he was detained and a
warrant later served on him by Ser
geant Dieter.
A warrant was procured for Lawler
who was found later. He told the
police he was from North Dakota, and
was only a chance acquaintance of
Randall's. He said he saw Randall
fill out a blank check Monday night
at the hotel, but did not know he had
signed a name other than his own.
Lawler says that Randall borrowed his
valise when he went to cash the check
yesterday afternoon, explaining that
the valise would make the transaction
appear "more business like."
Alderman Millar, who Issued the war
rants, will hear the case this morning.
NINTH REvHMENT MAN.
He Died in Mercy Hospital, Wilkes-
Barre Yesterday Morning.
Michael Tralnor. a member of Com
pany F. Ninth regiment, died at Mercy
hospital, "Wllkes-Barre, at 2 o'clock
yesterday morning. Mr. Tralnor was
at Camp Thomas with his regiment
and while thre became sick, being
sent homo on one of the hospital trains.
Upon his arrival in "Wilkes-Parre he
at once entered Mercy hospital and It
was discovered that he was suffering
from appendicitis nnd an operation wus
performed. Mr. Tralnor was n resi
dent of North Franklin street and is
survived by his mother nnd two broth
ers, Philip and Thomas.
COLONEL BRYAN'S MISSION.
Said to Have .been Only Partially
Successful.
"Washington. Sept. 27. The mission
of Colonel Bryan, commanding the
Third Nebraska Infantry to Washing
ton for the dlschatge of a number of
enlisted men of that regiment, who
desire to leave the military service and
return to their homes, has so far been
only partially successful. There have
been seventy-five of these applications
received af the war department. They
nil came through the regular channels.
While all of them were approved by the
regimental officers, including the col
onel commanding, the majority of them
were disapproved by either the bri
gade, division or corps commander.
So far, but fifteen of the applications
havo been favorably acted upon, and
the discharge of the men ordered. In
these cases the applicants are married
men with families dependent upon
them, and their applications were reg
ularly approved by all tho reviewing
authorities, including General Fltzhugh
Lee, commanding the Eighth army
corps, to which the Third Nebraska
Is attached. Thero are still sixty cases
unacted upon by the department.

VERY ANXIOUS
TO RETURN HOME
NEW YORK VOLUNTEERS DIS
GUSTED WITH HONOLULU.
Tho Camp Location Is Not a Good
One Water Is Scarce and the Sup
ply of Food Very Meagre Condi
tions Aro Such Thnt Officers Havo
Entered a Protest Now Believe
That They Should Be Musterod
Out of tho Service as the Work
They Enlisted for is Done.
A letter to tho Ulnchnmton Herald
from Charles W. Fetherolf, formerly
of The Tribune, under date of Sept. 12
from Camp McKinley, Honolulu, shows
that thu First regiment of Now York
volunteers, with whom he is camping,
is thoroughly disgusted with Its sta
tion on the Island In the Pacific and
is very anxious to get home. In part,
Mr. Fetherolf says:
"The blues are rampant. Men who
have gone through four months of
campaigning with more or less hard
ship, and never thought of complain
ing are now bitter in their denuncia
tion of existing conditions. Just where
the blame lies no one appears to know.
All feel, however, that the olllcers of
the regiment are not at fault.
"Food Is so scarce that tho men sim
ply can not get enough to eat. After
undergoing several hours of hard work
tho soldiers have to go away from their
miserable apologies for meals, with
the pangs of hunger only aggravated
by a morsel that would scarcely suf
fice a child one year old.
NOT VARIETY ENOUGH.
"The variety Is not sufficient to keep
an active man In Health. A retired
United Stntes army officer living in
Honolulu, In an article In a local pa
per, deplores the food supply we are
receiving and makes the assertion that
we lire not getting anywhere near what
Is duo us according to army regula
tions. The Intense feeling over the
matter aroused the olflcei-s, who made
official inquiry into the shortage of
rations, with but little or no results
so far ns the enlisted men can see.
"For the first time since leaving
Camp Black the men of Company II
and the whole regiment for that matter
has not been paid regularly at the end
of the month. The men have no money
with which to buy the necessities of
life. Even If they were paid, their
Waces would lip nntlilnc In vlow nf tlio
J fabulous prices charged here for many
articles of food. Even fruit, which we.
before hand, pictured ns being as plen
tiful as the fruits of our northern
omes, is so scarce that many men go
for days without tasting a bit.
"I was charged ten cents for a small ,
cocoanut, grown here on the island. '
At home I have seen the same article
twice as large sold for half the price. I
Pineapples are fifteen cents each. Eggs
at present, are fifty cents a dozen, al
though I am told that they are cheap-
er some times. Milk brings thirteen
cents a quart. Beer is sold everywhere
where there are those with money
to buy it, at two glasses for twenty
five cents. No smaller quantity than
a quarter's worth Is sold.
HARD TO SLEEP.
"Board flooring is now being placed
In the tents. The men have been sleep
ing on the ground. The mosquito de
prive many of sleep and rest nights
and some relief has been found by
sleeping outside the tents on the
ground.
"The one consideration, I am told,
that caused the location of the camp
In this miserable hell-hole was that It
was the only place where water could
be secured.
"The supply is surface water of a
wretched quality. It is pumped by
windmills Into tanks from which dis
tribution Is effected by means of pipes
laid above or very close to the sur
face of the ground. Not only is the
water so warm as to be almost un
drlnkable, but there Is hardly enough
of it to meet the bare necessities of he
men.
"As a result of conditions there are
a significant number of men sick. It
would be hard to find an enlisted man
In tho entire company who does not
long to get out of this horrible place.
They believe that their sta'lons, now
that the war Is over, are at home
with their wives and others who may
bo dependent upon them."
