Ins, and boInK unable to secure any
thing en route because of the refusal
of the rnllroad people to stop at nny
station where edibles could be secured.
Thcv were afraid, were theae rull
road people, that the soldiers would
pillage their eating houses, and, rather
than run this risk, managed to avoid
u lay-over nt nny of these points.
Members of the reception committee
state that they encountered soldier
boys on the trains ut HnrrlsburR who
hud made the journey that far on two
sandwiches and a sounty portion of
water no effort was mad to replenish
the water tanks.
PRA1SK FROM COU COUHBEN.
Seranton and its virlnlty can well
be proud of the men that represented
It In the Spanish war," said Colonel
Coursen yesterday when asked to Klve
an expression on the lone tour of ardu
ous duty now ended. "This 1 say with
out fear of being considered egotistical,
for with a moment's reflection It is ap
parent to anyone that it is the main
Iwdy of the soldiery that is responsible
almost wholly for the record n regiment
makes.
"Without such excellent officers as
were over the companies nnd on my
staff, the regiment could not have made
the showing it did, but still more diffi
cult would It have been to come through
the campaign with such ii commend
able record had the men In the ranks
been recruited from poor tnuterlnl.
"We had the best behaved, best dis
ciplined regiment that was at any camp
we went to. There are tiitiny things
that caused regret, but the boys can
look back with pride and self-congratulation
on the manner in which they
conducted themselves. They are a
standing example of the fact that a
man can Ik- a soldier and a gentle
man." When one contrasts the record of the
Thirteenth with that of some of its
neighbors, particularly at Camp Jlac
Kenzie. there Is no questioning the fact
that Colonel Coursen has good cause
for felicitation.
Not ti single Instance of crime and
baldly a misdemeanor that would ordi
nal ily be printed in the average news
paper can be charged against nny of
Its members. Not a single drunken
soldier got off nny of the three trains
nt the Delaware and Hudson station.
NOTES OF THE HOME-COMING.
Some Incidents Belative to the Sol
diers' Beturn.
Uniforms had right of way yester
day. Hr.'iss buttons were looked upon
with admiring awe and the more wrink
led the overcoat of fading blue the
ni'.re It was regarded with affection. A
big fellow with regimentals and a rough
rider hat, rather oft color, was the oh
J"ct of great interest as he came up
Washington avenue about the time the
second section was at 'the station.

SUNDAY. APRIL 2NO-
EASTER ....
Ready now, and any time up
to April 2nd th v
taster Frocks
we'll endeavor to tell you
about them, but the best way is to
come and see them.
The new comers have been ar
riving daily for weeks past. You
will notice particularly that the
gowns you see here are not to be
seen elsewhere. That feature of
exclusiveness we push very far
farther than any one else we know
of. We get first pick usually, and
use the privilege mercilessly. The
results are shown in the collection.
The Fashion present for us, and
future for you discloses some
smart gowns, the certain finishes
and lesser details of which will
mark them in the eyes of the so
phisticated, as being "all right."
"Swell" is to common a word for
such supreme and dainty elegance.
Venetian Cloths, French Poplins,
French Broadcloths, Covert Mix
ture, Cheviot Serges are leaders in
this season's fabrics. Used last
season? Oh yes, but even more
popular this, and improved in ap
pearance and colorings.
But there is no bond of sympa
thy between last Spring's and this
Spring's styles there is a radical
departure. i ne oversKirt is a
prominent feature. It may be only
a sham (for the purpose of reducing
weight), but the overskirt effect
mist be thcie.
One Style
Shown by i's, called the "Tunic," of
Venetian Cloth silk lined throughout
has full llounccd skirt with over drapery,
opening In front, and lapping at wntst.
The Jacket on Kton has Medici collar
with wlrto rovers, silk faced and trimmed
with appllqulngs and embroidery. The.
overskirt Is trimmed In like manner, while
the skirt propor has panel or silk with
ippHquo und embroidery trimmings.
There are other men-tailorcl
gowns here, and the prices are
from $11.98 to $69.50.

Women stopptd nnd gazed nt him re
spectfully und a string of small boys
followed In his wuke. His triumphant
march was attended on his own part
by an impassive, expression, as if he
were ohllvloun to the fact that he was
a hero. "Oh dear'" exclaimed n sym
pathetic woman to her companion,
"doesn't he look tired out and white,
the poor fellow?" and the other woman
thought lie did. Neither of tln'in no
ticed the "War Cry" protruding from
his pocket r realized that he was a
? etlon of the Salvation Army.
The station panorama would have in
terested nny one who likes to study
human nature or cares to gain Im
pressions from Ills fellows In the mass.
There were those who had soldiers in
the expected trains and those who had
not. honglng for a sight of the dear,
fa. miliar face brought many to the
pot. but by far the greater number
of spectators went out of curiosity nnd
for the sake of the excitement rather
than from motives of affection or pa
triotism. THEKK WAS A CONTRAST.
Thero were pale, 'thin women who
shivered in the rnw March air us the
wind fluttered their shabby uttlre, in-
sufllclent for the chilly day. When
they greeted their own soldier boys,
the bronzed faced men, despite the
privations of camp life, looked as if
they had be-n better fed and had i-uf-fered
less frrm the cold than their
wives at homo, with their pallid lips
that smiled and their eager eyes dim
with tears.
One of the most pathetic scones was
whore a man ho looked but a boy
clasped a frail, little woman in hi?
a'nis and tried also to gather up a
little chllil tint she held, but. the baby
screamed and turned awny Its small
face and would have nothing to do
with the young father whom he had
forgotten, and whose lips quivered as
he kissed tlv unwilling little fellow.
"I did want to hear him say 'papa,' "
said the soldlel.
Among the onlookers was a woman
In deep mourning. Everybody about
her was looking eagerly up the track
to cateh a glimpse of the Incoming
train. She t-tood with eyes which
M"-med tc see nothing and while ther?
wro no tears of either joy or grief
on her cheeks, her face was the picture
of s-.idnes.s. A Jolly group of girls near
her hushed their laughter as one of
them wl.lipercd: "r don't scp how slin
could com" h.-ie today. Her son died
at the camp two months a.j'."
Hut the gills that swarmed over tin
platform and far up the road and over
trucks nnd everywhere, it seemed Im
possible to believe that so many young
girls in short frocks could be gathered
from the entire city as were all over
tl3 place about the station yesterday.
The uverage s-oldler boy of "tender''
years was surrounded by at least four
of these little maids as soon as he
l.indod and the proud nvuiner In which
they escorted lilm up the street was
Interesting to witness.
A HAD ACCIDENT.
When the throng was surging nt Its
utinost, when the eagerness to greet
the boys had come to a point of half
frenzy, suddenly through the mass
came a truck and the crowd parted us
if an armed guard had thrust it back
from right and left. The burden was
lowly rolled past nnd the awed onlook
ers caught a glimpse of a dead face.
The swift contrast between the glad
home-coming of the troops and the
man who had been stricken down by
the train causvd a feeling of realism
that struck many a spectator with nor.
roi .
"Daddy" Conway, The Tribune agent,
who was the only civilian to follow
the regiment from start to llnish, did
not come home with the main body
yesterday. He Is leisurely making his
way north, stopping at the principal
points of interest and also wherever
any of the trainmen discover him.
.Mrs. Mcllriile, who established a sut
ler's stund within the Thirteenth's lines
at Dunn Lorlng, Vu., followed the reg
iment to Camp Meade and then to
Camp MacKenzlo. She returned in the
first section to Washington, which Is
her home.
Every conceivable kind of a thing
that the Sunny South produces In the
way of an interesting souvenir was
brought here by the boys. Sugar cane,
cotton nnd palm were the most com
mon. Captain Docker and Musician
Clark each brought home a full-blooded
bull dog. which hail gone through the
greater part of the campaign with
them.
The school board last night ordered
the schools closed during the after
noon of March '-'3, when the public re
ception is to occur. The Ninth ivl
ment will very likely participate in the
parade. The Scrai.ton contingent of
the First Volunteer Engineers will also
partlclrato nnd will meet tonight ut
Vli'iey and IHoolts' store to m.tke ar
rangements. A reception will be tendered by Camp
h. Sons of Vetoi-ans, tonight to their
comrades who returned with the Thir
teenth. RESOLUTIONS OF REGARD.
Were Adopted by the Citlzena of
Augustn, Oa.
As an evidence of the good will
which has existed between the peo
ple of Augutia nnd the soldiers, the
following set of resolutions have beer,
drafted by the citizens of thnt city nnd
a copy of It sent to every officer nnd
enlisted man:
Whereas. The. volunteer soldiers of our
army are to bo mustered out at an e.iily
day, wc, tho citizens of Aut-'ustu, in m.iss
meeting' assembled, desire to give formal
expression to our respect, our friendly re
gard .and our good wishes for the olll
cers nnd men who are niuul to go frin
among us to their homes. Therefore, be V
Resolved, Thnt wo cordially endorse the
sentiment so happily tipres'ied by the
president of tho I'nited States that "sec
tional lines no longer mar tho map of our
common country," end we repaid It as a
fertunato circuir.stanco that men from
the north and men from tho south, vol
unteers In a common cause, have shared
together tho fortunes of war and the
hardships of camp, nnd that thoubands
of men from tho northern states have
been encamped for months In southern
communities whoro they have had tho op
portunity to observe for themselves the
charm of our climate, tho fnvor of our
friendship and tho patriotism ot our peo
ple. Resolved, That the thanks of the conn
try nrc duo to the soldiers In camp as well
as to men at tho from, and tho volunteer
who lft his homo nnd bunlness and hap
faithfully complied with the regulation!
of camp during weary months of Inac
tion, Is as much n patriot nit he whose for
tune it was to face the enemy's Mn.
Resolved, That wo conquer ourselves
exceptionally foitunnte In the olllcers nnd
men who were nwlgnotl to Camp Mac
kenzie, nnd bear clircrful testimony llutt
tholr deportment bus berti such tin to
domimstrnto the right of the American
soldier to the respect and cuteein of all.
Wo appreciate their coining and their
stay among us, nnd wo shnlV noo them
go away with ropict. To Ucticrul 8. M
13. Young, and through hm, to all the
officers and men of the 1'lrnt division of
the Second Army corps encamped nt Au
mista. wo extend assurances of our cor
dial regard and ot our b.t wishes for
their future happlnt-sa and success.
Theio sentiments apply In a more
especial rnniuior to the members of
the Thirteenth regiment, who feel that
their stuy In Dixie was far more
pleasant than the time they spent nt
nny other camps, nnd nowhere elsj
did they find such warm hospitality
of such kind treatment as they did
at the hands of the southern peo
ple. The boys return to I heir
their northern homes with new and
gieatly Improved Ideas of the south
nnd of Its free-hearted, generous peo
ple They wlU not soon forget Camp
MaeKenzle with Its experiences and
its associations, for the members o
the regiment were never as well re
ceived, oven on the soil of their native
state as they wore there, and It
Is pleasing to record the fact that
the people of Augusta consider that
the boys by their conduct merited this
good treatment.
Your correspondent on this occasion
thinks It Is not limits to extend to the
members of the regiment nnd to every
one of the lino nnd staff officers his
slnoerest thanks for the uniform cour
tesy which they have constantly ex
tended to him In the line of his duties
of reporting the dally doings of the
regiment; nnd, If distinction In degrees
of courtesy are possible, he deems It
only plain Justice to make special men
tion of Captain Frank Kobllng, of Com
pany C, nnd Col -ne! Coursen, two of
the most respected and popular officers
In the entire Second army corps. Their
kindness and their help in giving the
moat reliable and important Items of
news was of great assistance.

HAS OBJECTOKS HEHE.
Congressman-elect Roberts, of Utah,
Scored in This City.
Many objections from many sources
have been made to the seating of Congressman-elect
Illnghiun II. Roberts,
from Utah, but it has remained for
this city to go on record as' presenting
the most unique and in all probability
the most striking objection or protest
of all. From the members of that very
church or sect In which Mr. Roberts
Is said to be an active worker, comes
this objection.
At a recent meeting of the members
of the Reorganized Church of Jesus
Christ of Latter Day Saints, hold in
Finley's hall, on Lackawanna avenue,
the following resolutions were unani
mously adopted:
Whereas, One Urlgham II. Roberts has
been elected to become a member of the
I'nited States congress from th) st'ue of
Utah.
Whereas. S.ild Drlghain )T. Pcberts Is
