Shafter's visit to the War De partment and the President created a commotion in military circles last Sat nrday. Immediately after his arrival at the executive mansion. Surgeon Gen eral Sternberg, Quartermaster General Ludington and C om in 1 s*a r y General Eagan were sent for. and the President and General Corbin had a consultation with them of more than an honr. It was evident from the looks of the men as they emerged from the White House that General Shafter had made complaints against the administration of affairs during the Santiago campaign. Every one looked worried. Generals Shafter and Corbin and Lieatenant Colonel Miley, after leaving the President, went to the War Depart ment General Corbin cleared his of fice of spectators, and issued instruc- tions that he was not to be disturbed. He even dismissed his confidential sec retary, and General Shafter dismissed his aid, Colonel Miley. Then the two had a conference of 30 minutes, and when it was completed General Corbin was irritated and angry. During his talk with General Shafter the Adjutant General's face was ex tremely red with anger, and he fre quently emphasized his remarks by a vigorous pounding on the arms of the chair in which he was sitting. At the conclusion of the conference General Corbin and General Shafter came ont of the office. They did not talk to each other as they walked along the corridor. The Adjutant General went out to luncheon and General Shafter and Colonel Miley, who had joined him, went to their hotel. Those who witnessed the scene were convinced that the President's inter view had been far from satisfactory, and that Generals Corbin and Shafter had a heated argument in the office. Everyone who participated in the con . ference at the executive mansion de clines to discuss it in any manner General Shafter, accompanied by 1 \ Colonel Miley, reached the War Depart , ment shortly after 10 oclock this tnorn- I ing. He was in fatigue nniform and ■ went directly to the office of Assistant i Secretary, who greeted him cordially. General Shafter then walked into the Office of Adjutant Uemral Corbin, where he deposited a large Spanish Hag which had been captured from the con verted Spanish cruiser Mexico at the surrender of the city of Santiago. The greeting between the two was friendly. Generals Corbin and Shafter have been personal friends, each working for the interests of the other. General Corbin took his brother offi cer over to a corner of his office rud conversed with him for several minutes in low tones. Later General Corbin, General Shaf ter and Lieutenant Colonel Miley walk down to army headquarters and a call of ceremony was made on Major Gen eral Nelson A. Miles, commanding the ariny. General Miles shook hands with ach of them. The visit was not a friendly call but WM hurriedly official, like that of an ofiloerof lesser rank calling upon his •nqerior. The visit did not last five minutes. ( Considerable comment was caused by the fact that General Shafter was ac companied by General Corbin, and his aid, Lieutenant Colonel Miley. in mak ing bis visit. After leaving General Mile* the trio walked over to the execu tive mansion. The President asked for General Shatter's version of the Santia go campaign. Generals Sternberg, Ludington and Eagon were given an opportunity to re ply, or explain, to the complaints made by General Shafter. The Blundering Men. In regard to the conduct of the war department, Susan B. Anthony says women could have managed sou-e things better. "Men are not house keepers; it is absurd for a man to be quartermaster general when he can't find hifl clean shirt at home. "Men have their part to do, and they have done it better than ever before; but women with her natural instincts and training must naturally be more fitted to manage the commissary de partment and nursing. "We have an example of mismanage ment shown through Gen. Wheeler, who went to the president and was told to order anything necessary for the comfort and health of his men, but was stopped by a commissary to observe the 'system.' "Mrs. John A. Logan did more to cut the red tape and get comforts for the soldiers than any othei person. It was much the same in the Civil war, when old Mother Bickerdike cut all red tape and fed Sherman'* army. Sherman told her that his men did not have scurvy, and he wonld not allow her to '-are for them, but she declared they did have scurvy, and she went to Gen. Grant, who gave her an order to do what she liked for the men." WASHINGTON. The Peace Commissioners had a con ference with President McKinley ye* terday, for consultation, and will nail for Europe Saturday. It is said the President insisted upon the retention of the entire island of Luzon. The Commission on the evacution of Cuba is in session in Havana ; and that on the evacution of Porto Rico at Han Juan. Thk Empress cf Austria was assasiu ated Geneva, Switzerland last Saturday by an Italian anarchist, who had follow another person into that country and missed him, and then turned his atten tion to the Empresw. She wax stabbed while walking from her hotel to a boat on the lake, and died shortly after. It was a cruel and useless murder. OUF BOYS IN CAMP. Co. E, Pa. Vol. Inf., Camp Meade, Pa. Seit. 13. lxy#. The l r >th broke camp at Forts Wash ing and Sheridan last Friday morning, lay around all day. were taken to Washington in the evening, marched from wharf to B & O. depot, about two miles, were given coffee and food by the Red Cross and W. C. T. U wo men, left Washington at 9 p m., pass ed through Baltimore. Wilmington, Philadelphia and Reading and reached Middletown Saturday morning, a yery slow and monotonous twelve hours ride. We loafed in Middletown till evening and then marched five miles westward past many other regiments to our camping ground. The roads were very dustv, those at the rear could hardly see the head of the column. Several boys dropped before we reached our field,'which was knee-deep with clover and ragweed. Tents were thrown up any old way to shelter us for the night," which was cold and frosty. Sundav morning after limbering up on hot coffee, hardtack and bacon- our entire menu so far here —we set up our tents again in what we supposed was the right place, but had to move them three times before everything was settled. We are near a little settlement called Good's Mills and are within a mile of the trolly line running from Middletown to Harrisburg. which latter is about six miles away. Anyone com ing from Butler to Camp Meade will likely find it most convenient to stop at Harrisburg and come out to see us on the trolly cars. All letters should be addressed as this letter is headed, Co. E, 15th P. V. 1., Camp Meade, Pa No doubt the newspapers have stated how two Co. A I >oys. Coffee andCiruner were drowned in the Potomac, Wednes day last, and how another one was bad ly cut while trying to board the train as we left Washington The 15th's regimental hospital is full and a good many sick men have been sent to the Ist Div. hospital. The cold nights seem to knock us out. E. 11. NEGLEY. How England Aided. Interesting facts have just came to light concerning the collier ship Scipio, which has lain unused in the navy yard New York since the outbreak of the war. Why she did not see service has been one of Uncle Sam s secrets. W hen war was declared there was a cry from Washington that it was too late to ob tain the English guns and smokeless powder wanted for the English-built cruiser New Orleans. England s neu trality forbade obtaining them. Som" time latter the New Orleans used Eng lish guns and smokeless powder very effectively off Cuba. Thereby hangs a tale. Early in May there sailed from Eng land the big East Indian steamer R » venna. She went to Antwerp and took on a (juanity of sqaare boxes that were handled tenderly. The boxes were "ballast." Then she sailed for a Can adian port. Ten days after the Raven na left Antwerp one of our cruisers put to sea on scout duty, according to her orders. By good scouting she sighted a big black ship 200 miles off Sandy Hook. The ship was deserted and yet in an excellent condition, with plenty of coal and a great deal of ballast. The cruiser towed the big black ship to New York and the cruiser's commander wired the navy department of the "find."' A week later two navy tugs towed a fine collier up to the navy yard. She was flying the American flag and her name was Scipio. If the navy yard had been as open then as it is now one might have seen how carefully-the Scip io's ballast was taken ashore. Also how well some big English guns were let over her side. But no one saw, and ti was only the other day that some cur ious ones sailed around the Scipio, ly ing snugly in an inlet. Below the white letters of her name they traced another name that had been painted out. It was "Ravenna." Cooperstowii and Vicinity. School opened Monday with a large attendance.

Penalty tor first offence and for each subsequent offence. It shall be the duty of each teacher to report at the end of each month the names of those, who have been absent five days without lawful excuse." ' TUo of llu» UMW'ber <-<>u jointly with that ot the parent, commen ces when the pupil leaves the parent's roof and control to go to school and continues until his return from school. The teacher is not responsible for tin misconduct on the way to and from school, though he has the right to punish for such misconduct, when brought to his knowledge." "The teacher should govern his school by appeals to the reason and bet ter feelings of his pupils if possible. Bat a teacher in the common schools stands in the place of a parent to a pu pil, and may administer correction to him under the same restrictions as in the case of a parent The regulations and commands of the teacher should be strictly and promptly obeyed. Hence a necessity exists for sufficient power to enforce this duty, and therefore it is held that the teacher may inflict such reasonable corporal punishment upon the pupil as the parent might inflict for a similar cause. '' "If any person shall wilfully and maliciously break or enter any public school building or outhouse or shall injure, damage or destroy furniture, books, papers, maps, ect. shall be liable to a fine of CUM), or imprisonment 'i uio., or both."
