of the regiment, it Is the persistent
failure of tho new canvas to arrive
here. This Is unlntclllblo It Ui becom
ing wearisome. The latter part of last
June, Just live months ago, ltcglmontal
Quartermaster Cox, in his olllclal ca
puclly, made tho round? of tho differ
ent companies for the purpose of In
specting the canvas and condemning
what was unfit for use. On nevcral
tonus he placed the stamp "I. C." In
spected, condemned," nnd it was then
promised that better tents would be
furnished forthwith: still, after nearly
half a year tit waiting, suffering and
hoping, the men in many cases havo
had to live and make themselves ns
comfortable as possible when it rained,
under canvas which oltcrs little. If
an, resistance to tho generous inllux
of chilling water. There Is as much
explanation for this state of affairs as
the Egyptian Sphinx would give to a
question, nnd the natural result Is that
ninny uncomplimentary, If not burn
Irg, criticisms, are offered.
TIID FOOD QUESTION.
Tho food question Is nko becoming a
source of iuitatlon, and this is the
more to bo tegrctted, because it Is the
most grievous drawback; of all, and
the otllcers, though desirous of doing
whatever Is possible for tho men, arc
sin ply powerless to remedy the evil.
The trouble reached a head yesterday
when many of the companies tefused
In uccept the ridiculously meagre ia
tlons which wete Issued to them and
went to Colonel Courson for redress.
This notion will doubtless clear the ut
mospheto somewhat, and the officers
from Colonel Coursen down, will en
d"avur to ascertain how long tho men
of the leglmeut will have to live on n
morsel of bread, haul tack and salt
potk.
When this camp was flist opened the
appearance of the boys In blue almost
within the very belt which marked the
devastation ot She! man's victorious
legions on their inarch to the sea. did
not cieate vciy much enthusiasm. Xow,
however, it Is different. Tho people In
nnd atouncl Augusta have become ac
customed to the soldiers and all dis
tinctions of noith and south are either
set aside or entlrelj obliterated, and
tho plensantest lclations now exist.
The latest example ot this kindly feel
ing Is the following clicular letter,
which has been received and lead to
the boys of tho Thirteenth:

Many interesting letters received by

and elsewhere havo appealed In The

heretofore only told in commonplace
press dispatches havo been perused
with renewed Intel est. None of tho
letters, so fur as known, have described
the great "ilag-raislng" held Novem
ber 18, 1S93, at San Juan, Porto Rico.
Beside, not many soldiers huvo the
time, inclination, or ability to wiite an
interesting description of cuch stlirlng
events in a letter. Such an one, how
ever, was recentlv received by Frank
Hepler, of Jackson street, from his
"cioney," George W. Ives, who enlisted
with Lieutenant Dentler. Piivate Ives
is a member of Company M, of the
Eleventh I'nlted States Infantry. His

THE BOMUABDJIENT
Among the man. Interesting thing to
bo obseived heie, one of the piinclpil Is
the effect of Simpson's oombarilment
Old Mono e istle, which Spilu boasted
was pioof against almost anything, sios
many uglj scais on her walls, where Am
erican shtlls had taken out largo bites
In several places tho outer wall was so
badly Injured that It will undouhteellv
havo to bo rebuilt. In my opinion, tho
American gunueis on board Sampson's
boats could have shelled the old castlo
out of existence without lecelvlng In
Jury In return, In i vory few bonis, had It
been tho desire of th.it able naval officer
to do so. And Sampson knew It.
Nor was tho loit tho only building that
suffered fiom the bombardment. Diiectly
behind tho fortifications and for some
distance Into tho town the buildings show
holes and luge breaches In their walli
whore exploding shells haci found their
