VOLUNTEER SOLDIER'S ANXIOUS TO
BE MUSTERED OUT.
Those Who Failed to Get a Chance to
Fight Have No Desire to Do Garrison
Duty—Last Letter to tho Tribune from
the Chickamauga Camp.
Chickamauga, Ga., August 29, 1808.
EDITOR TRIBUNE. —This will be my
last letter to you from this place, as we
break camp hero tonight for Knoxville,
Tennessee. The soldiers are all glad to
get away from this camp, for no one
knows better than themselves how they
have suffered from dust, thirst, heat and
hunger, and all will remember the 103
days wo spent here. Nevertheless I do
think and know that most of the boys
will have some recollections of this big
camp, for in our three months'stay|liore
we have had some varied experiences—
experiences that have caused many a
hearty laugh, and, again, experiences
that have taught the volunteers many a
lesson they will never forget.
It has at least taught most of the men
how to be economical. On the 815.00
per month paid by the government,
and the very small amount of rations
served, with the cxhorbitant prices
cliargod by the settlers, men bad to be
so to live iu comfort.
The sickness of our camp has been
something awful, and tho citizens and
pressof Chattanooga have taken the
cudgel in their own hands and went fur
the medical officers in charge. The
proofs they hold are such as will make
the citizens of this country hold up
their hands iu holy horror when they
learn tho whole truth.
The neglect of the sick has been
criminal. I, being an enlisted man, 1
have nothing further to say on this
point, but those who have beon dis
charged will, when they reach their
homos, tell the people of their districts
what they have seen in Chickamauga,
and if tho people of this country won't
make tho heads of some departments
suffer then I am no judge of the Ameri
can pooplo.
There are a great number of the
officers (commissioned) who have lost
I lie respect of their men by their actions
tho past few weeks by wiring to Wash
ington to havo their regiments do gar
rison duty in Cuba, telling tho authori
ties that this was tho wish of the men.
That is not so, for 90 por cent of tho
volunteer anny that was in Chicka
mauga park when poaco was declared
want to be mustered out and don't want
to do garrison duty in our new conquests
under the present officials.
The officers of the First Penn'a want
to do as the men wish them and that is
to go homo. No regiment was more
anxious to go to tbo front and tried
harder than the First Fonn'a, but now
we think we should bo mustored out of
the service. Should wo, however, be
sent to do garrison duty, I think the
First will give as good account of itself
there as we did in camp.
The privates of all the regiments have
requested to be mustered out, but volun
teer officors think tho privates are no
better than tho mules of the regiment
and should have no say; when, in
fact, the privates are far superior
human beings than tho political pots
who command them. Our regiment
was lucky in having good officers to
command thorn and they havo no kick
coming from that source or any other
where their own officers are concerned,
but I speak of other regiments here
which have had trouble with their offi
cers.
There is no better officer in tho army
then J. Lewis Good, our colonel. 110
lias been very kind to his tnon and did
lots for the boys that no other colonel
did. lie and Major Allen havo been
like fathers to us more than officers.
Major Allen Is today tho most popular
officer In the army and lie can get uaoro
from a body of mon in the lino of duty
than any other who was hero. His
associates havo been tho privatos, and
when ho wanted a detail to work every
man wanted to go with him. Our own
captain, C. F. Hess, is the most popular
man in the regiment and the company
Dcufncas Cannot IXJ Cured
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by coimiitutionnl remedies.
Dcufness Is caused by an inflamed con
dition of the mucous lining of the
eustachian tube. When this tube gets
inflamed you have a rumbling Round or
imperfect bearing, and when it is entire
ly closed deafness is the result, and un
less the inhumation can bo taken out
and this tube restored to its normal con
dition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nino cases out of ten are caused by
catarrnh, which is nothing but an in
flamed condition of the mucous surfaces.
Wo will give Ouo Hundred Dollars for
any case of deafness (caused by catarrh)
that cunnot be cured by Hall's Catarrh

FKEELAND, PA., MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 5, 189 S.
lately presented him with a sword, the
finest in the camp.
We break camp horc tonight, and
march to Rossville, where wo load for
Knoxville, and so much has been promis
ed by Knoxvillo citizens that we think
and hopeuur conditions will be improved.
This camp lias been unhealthy, but I
think if the proper sanitary regulations
had boon looked after when we first
came hero, and if the government had
given us enough water to keep ourselves
clean, things would have been different.
If, as is rumored, they are going to have
an investigation, it will not be very hard
to place tho responsibility where it
belongs in regard to the neglect of the
men.
This morning I went on a water
wagop for water and the ride through
Georgia, at least the part we went
through, was very interesting. I was
awakened at 4.15 to get ready for the
trip and at 4.30 took my place on a
wagon with four mules hitched to it and
started for Box ton, seven miles from our
camp. The driver was an old Georgian
who had fought with Ilattory E, Georgia
Light Artillery, during the Civil war,
and ho entertained us with stories of
the battle of Chickamauga and pointed
out the various landmarks along the
line and gavo us their histories. He
also told us of tho "moonshiner" and
some of his traits. lie himself was an
old moonshiner, and, as he says himself:
"You'ns thinks that to work the korn is
a crime, but wo'uns here don't think so,
and we'uns will always do it so long as
korn grows."
Moonshine whiskey is worso than
"polinky." I heard a soldier who drank
it say lie would rather drink molten lead
than touch moonshine again, as It would
go down easier and do about as much
good. Tho moonshine drunk is very
sickening from what I have seen of it
down here, and the boys do not take
kindly to It when they set out to accu
mulate a jag.
The pooplo of this region will bo very
sorry to see us leave. We havo left a
great deal of money here and they will
never again have the same chances they
had. They have at all times treated us
very nicely and we found that Southern
hospitality is something more than moro
formality.
When we leave here tonight wo will
bo tho last of tho volunteer Infantry to
go from the park. No one will bo left
but the cavalry (Grigsby's cowboys).
Maybe they were not mud when peace
was declared. They clamored and tried
hard to get a chance to light anil now
they are demanding as loudly to be
mustered out.
I myself want to be inusterod out and
so does every man in our rogimont. We
don't want to spend two yenrs in the
army doing nothing more valorous than
cleaning up Spanish filth.
1 shall writo again to you of our trip
to Kuoxville and compare camps for the
pooplo.
I read with a great deal of satisfaction
in the TnilittKK of John McKlnley and
the part ho took in the battle of San
tiago. I almost onvy him his place, for
he Is a hero of tho war while I am only
a hero of 103 Chlckamauga dress parades
and seven sham battles, lint it is a
pleasure to mo to know that an old
school-mato of mine was whore I tried
to get and failed.

For Honest (lovoriuiiont.
Tho rally of the honest government
party hold on Thursday evening at the
corner of Centre and South streets was
well attended. Tho meeting was open
ed by the Prohibition candidate for
sheriff, Alox. Marshall, of Joanesvilln,
who introduced the candidate of that
party for tho legislature, I). M. Evans.
Mr. Evans gavo sevoral incidents of his
experience while a member of the
Pennsylvania house of representatives
and asked that those present weigh well
the questions of the day boforo casting
their votes.
Ho then Introduced the speaker of
tho evening, M. J. Planning, of Balti
more. The later gavo an Interesting
talk on the misdeeds of the politieans of
this state, particularity M. S. Quay at ul,
accusing tho senator with having named
the Republican tickot botwoon drinks
at a seaside resort in New Jersoy ono
month before it was ratlOod by tho con
vention of the party in Ilarrisburg. 110
urged thoso present to vote for Dr.
Swallow and turn Matt Quay down.
lie also paid some attention to tho
Democratic party of tho state, claiming
it Is under Quay influence and is used
by tho boss wlionover tho latter wishes
to further his ends. Tho speaker was
listened to with respectful attention and
may havo made an Impression upon
somo voters, but no enthusiasm marked
the rally.
Disastrous (lama or Hall.
McAdoo ball club gavo an exhibition
of ball playing yesterday at tho Tigers
park which might have been considered
a burlesque en tho national gauio if it
were not for the earnestness they dis
played In trying to score during the con
test. Mauch Chunk team, the name tho
Freeland boys play under, toyed with
their opponents from beginning to end,
and when tho scorer announced that
the agony was over the tally-sheet show
ed tho result to bo 21 to 0 against the
South Side terrors.
McGIII, of Highland, was Impressnd
Into service by the visitors, owing to the
absence of their regular twlrler. It was
no fault of his that the score is what it
is. Ho threw a fairly good game, but
the men behind him knew nothing about
their business. McFadden went In the
box at tho opening for Mauch Chuhk,
and after ho experimented with various
shoots he was followed by Jim Roed,
who also had AJcAdoo mon at his mercy.
Tho most unfortunato result of the
game was tho wrath displayed by tho
elements upon tho Tlgors for permitting
such a contost on their grounds. The
stnrm which followed the exhibition
blew down a large section of the park
fence and the grand stand.
No Bounties on Wild Animals.
The act of tho legislature passod on
July 0, 1897, entitled, an act for tho
destruction of wild cats, foxos and
minks of this commonwealth and provid
ing for tho payment of bounties for tho
same, officers' fiats and fixing a penalty
for violation of the same has been de
clared unconstitutional. The court In
this caso holds that, tho act is unconsti
tutional In that its subject is not clearly
expressed in tho title. There is no
cloar expression of the purpose of the
act which Is to require the several
counties to pay the bounties provided by
the act. Tho commissioners havo felt
constrained by reason of this opinion to
not pay any further bounties upon wild
animals such as are named lu the act.
