A Record of Camp Routine—Longing for the Day to Come When the Regiment Will Be Off for the Philippines. Tuesday, May 17, 1898. Fair weather again. Nothing out of the usual line, but inspection. Co. L was passed without any complaint. We will have battalion drill after noon. Wednesday, May 18. Regular camp routine. One battalion artillery and one regiment infantry arrived this afternoon. Thursday, May 19—Nothing out of the usual. Friday—Same routine, even to the pork and beans. Saturday. The humble writer had the pleasure of presenting his tent mates with a very good lunch, which was presented to him by the matron of the emergency hospital. Alameda also presented the Seventh regiment with lunch, but Co. L saved their portion for Sunday. It rained again this afternoon and tonight. The First regiment is all packed and ready to move. They expect to go on board to-day or to-morrow. Sunday Morning. Fine clear morning. At 9 o'clock the Charleston was sighted coming down the bay. Co. L formed in line for a double quick march to the beach, about three-quarters of a mile away, for the purpose of getting as good a sight as possible. The Charleston passed about 14 miles off shore, but did not give or receive any salute. She looked to be heavily loaded and was steaming very slowly. There are great crowds in camp bidding the First regiment good-bye. It looks as if they will get off in the morning. Hope we may soon follow. Everybody is well in our company, and in fact the regiment is in very good health. Monday. At 7 o'clock the First regiment is warling, Tom Johnson and I were on the street car, and when we went to pay the conductor he said a lady had paid our fare for us. The people are just doing everything they can for us. I went to the Cliff house and saw the seals on the rocks. There were hundreds of them sunning themselves. There is a museum out there, too. It is just grand. There are all kinds of reptiles, animals and birds; in fact, everything. It is great. I went out from there to the Golden Gate park, where the Midwinter fair was. It looked somewhat different than when I was here before. All the buildings were taken down except the Liberal Arts. Well, the Captain just came and told me he was going to appoint me mail carrier, as the one he had was too slow. It is a good job. I will have to go three times a day, but will have a pass on the car, so will not drill much. The ladies of Alameda (that is across the bay) sent a luncheon to the Seventh. There were 150 baskets, or one for each tent. We had it for Sunday dinner, and it was very good. May 25th. We have moved our camping place to the Bay District, where all the other regiments are encamped. About 13,000 soldiers are here now, and more coming. We hear we are to leave on the 30th, but don't know, only as we hear of their getting the ships ready. That is the only thing we can go by. The camp is close to Golden Gate park, but we have a long way to go to drill. We don't much more than get there before recall is sounded. We drill as follows: 7:40 to 8:40, company drill; 10 to 11:30, battalion drill; 2 to 4, company drill, mostly skirmish drill. There have been two deaths in camp, one of the First regiment, and the other of Company E. Seventh Regiment, both of pneumonia. While we were moving over, a bale of hay fell off a wagon, knocking off a man, and the wheel ran over his ankle, crushing it. He will get a pension, but I don't want one in that way. Well, the boys want to go to bed, so I will close. J. S. HATFIELD, Co. L., Seventh Regt., Cal. Vol. [Let us hear from you again, boys — ED.] Charleston was sighted coming down the bay. Co.L formed in line for a double quick march to the beach, about three-quarters of a mile away, for the purpose of getting as good a sight as possible. The Charleston passed about 14 miles off shore, but did not give or receive any salute. She looked to be heavily loaded and was steaming very slowly. There are great crowds in camp bidding the First regiment good-bye. It looks as if they will get off in the morning. Hope we may soon follow. Everybody is well in our company, and in fact the regiment is in very good health. At 7 o'clock the First regiment is just leaving for the dock to go on board the ships for their trip to Manila. I hardly think they will leave until next Wednesday, and rather think we may go with them. Regular camp routine. At 6 p.m. we received orders to be ready to move at 7:30 to-morrow morning. The supposition is that we are going to another camp at the old Bay District racetrack. Wednesday, May 25. At 8 o'clock we struck tents and started for our new camp. We marched in heavy marching order, except we had no cartridges. We arrived at our new camp at 10:30 and proceeded to put up tents. We have a very good camping place so far as I can judge at this time. There are now in camp here about 8500 men and more coming. We expect our regiment (the Seventh California) to be the next to move, but can see no chance to get away for some days, as there seems to be no transports in the harbor. Thursday Morning. More rain to-day. No drill to speak of. It is reported that the Peking has got off. Friday. It is still wet, but not so bad in our tents. Our regiment has lost two men so far, and it is reported that another man is very sick. All have had pneumonia. None of our company have been seriously sick so far. The donation of edibles from Anaheim came to camp late this evening. Fine morning on Saturday. After the morning drill we opened the boxes from Anaheim and had something to eat from home. The boys were very thankful for the kind remembrance, as well as for the good things to eat. We have been faring very well of late. It is reported that the Seventh regiment will get off for Manila one week from to-morrow. We have received almost all of our equipments, which makes the report seem possible. At 1 o'clock the order was given to "fall in" for inspection, but it has been postponed until 3 p.m. The inspection was just to see how many good guns and canteens we had. I suppose we are to get new guns soon, as the bad ones have been taken away; and we are almost without any. We were in hopes of getting the new magazine guns, but it looks now as though we would not get them. Sunday was another fine day; but no news. The regiment has an invitation to attend a concert at Golden Gate park. I don't know how many of us can get to go. I hope to go. Two men from Co.E have died with pneumonia, and now the company have the measles. Two of their men have been moved from camp, Charley Puckett being one of them. Our boys are all well. There is a chance for some good men from Anaheim to get in the company now if they wish. The company is to be recruited up to 106 men and if any of the boys wish to get in they should go to Santa Ana at once. Will try to write again before we leave here. While we were moving over, a bale of hay fell off a wagon, knocking off a man, and the wheel ran over his ankle, crushing it. He will get a pension, but I don't want one in that way. Well, the boys want to go to bed, so I will close. J.S.HATFIELD, Co.L., Seventh Regt., Cal.Vol. [Let us hear from you again, boys.—Ed.] Bad management keeps more people in poor circumstances than any other one cause. To be successful one must look ahead and plan ahead so that when a favorable opportunity presents itself he is ready to take advantage of it. A little forethought will also save much expense and valuable time. A prudent and careful man will keep a bottle of Chamberlin's Colic Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy in the house, the shiftless fellow will wait until necessity compels it and then ruin his best horse going to a doctor and have a big doctor bill to pay, besides; one pays 25 cents, the other is out a hundred dollars and then wonders why his neighbor is getting richer while he is getting poorer.

And all day long he sails a ship between our land and Spain. And he avenges every hour, the martyrs of the Maine. His warship is six inches square, a washtub serves for ocean. But never yet, on any coast, was seen such dire commotion. With one skilled move his boat is sent from Cuba to mid-sea. And just as quickly back it comes to set Havana free. Heights with Dewey; plants his flag upon each island's shore. Then off with Sampson's fleet he goes to shed the Spanish gore. He comes on guard New England's coast, but his anchor falls. He hurries off in frightful speed, to shell Manila's walls. The Philippines so frequently have yielded to his power. There's very little left of them I'm certain at this hour; And when at last he falls asleep, it is to wake again. And hasten into troubled seas and go and conquer Spain. Ella Wheeler Wilcox in N.Y.Sun. A Message. To the men who fought with Decatur. To the men who with Lawrence died. To the men who fell in blazing hell of Mobile, by Farragut's side: Take to them our message, stern and plain. Tell them the guns are cast loose again. Men of the Maine! This is to the men of the ships of Oak: From the men of the ships of steel. To the hearts that broke midst the flame and smelt. From shilling hearts that feel. There is no mizzen, nor fore, nor main. But all of the flags are aloft again. Sinking of the Merrimac A cable from Port au Prince, Haiti under date of June 6th, brings the lowing account of the sinking of St. Collier Merrimac at the mouth of St. Santiago canyon this morning, and most of them sacrificed their lives. The collier Merrimac made dash through the narrow and crook entrance of the harbor, braving guns of the Spanish fleet and braving the mines with which the entrance thickly sown. Indeed, the forlorn heart of the Merrimac seems to have been exploded the mines and leave a free trance for the American fleet. Men on her were ready, even anxiously to take one chance in a million of plowing the mine and escaping all the matter of sending in a vessel he debated for several days. Men mines out of the way there would main-only the Spanish fleet for American fleet to meet, for the Americans extinguished the fire of forts at the harbor entrance this morning. This morning the American fleet again began to bombard the fortifications. A lively cannonade ensued two hours, and at the end of that time the forts were silenced. Then Merrimac, with the fullest steam entered into the entrance of the harbor, while the other American ship kept moving here and there in offing, ready to follow if by that chance in a million she succeeded entering. The Merrimac passed first line of torpedoes, although it always difficult to take a big ship through the narrow, crooked channel Perhaps she splendid acidity so ashished she had proceeded about 500 feet ward the big bay when a torpedo discharged. It struck her and took huge hole in her side, and she stamantly perpendicularly by the bottom a few of the brave crew who escaped instant death by the explosion that strained her, or drowning were struggling in water. The Spanish picked an officer, an engineer and six sailors made and made them prisoners. It is known here how many were killed: The vessel settled on the bottom that only the tops of her funnels and her short masts are visible. As now lies she is an additional obstruction to the harbor. Santiago is greatly excited. Some of its citizens found with the soldiers in the fortification on the heights this morning. The Stars and Stripes, in the shape of the largest flag in the world, float over Mooro Castle, Havana, and General Blanco candle surrenders. The mense flag designed for this duty already prepared, and is now on exhibition in New York. A patriotic street man has had the greatest made. It measures 120 feet in length, and believed that it breaks records Your Tax for the coming year on baking powder will be very light if you buy Schilling's Best and use only one heaping teaspoonful to a quart of flour.

This to the men of the ships of oak From the men of the ships of steel. To the hearts that broke midst the flame and smoke From the living hearts that feel. There is no miszen, nor for, nor main, But all of the flags are aloft again. Men of the Maine! Not against foes of our own true blood Nor kin across the sea.

Take them these tidings, ye who sleep, 'Neath the murky waves by the Cuban town. The blow in the night but began the fight. Which will end when the Spanish flag comes down; And our guns shall thunder their old refrain. Tolling your knell from here to Spain! Men of the Maine! Army and Navy Journal. VOICE OF THE PRESS. A SILLY DISCUSSION. Placentia Cor. Fullerton Tribune. The rumor of the change of location of the high school building does not meet with favor by the people of Placentia. It is now further from Placentia than from Anaheim and a great deal further from La Habra. Fullerton is in a central place. No objection to all getting the benefits of the school, but the change cannot be made. We are informed that all the talk of change originated in the brain of one of the trustees and that the matter had never been considered by the board. The effective range of a torpedo is scar half a mile, and until a torpedo can approach to within that distance a battleship or other object of attack its presence may be practically ignored. Projectiles from a one-pounder, however, can penetrate any armor it yet been feasible to place on torpedo destroyers, and a gun that can throw 100 one-pound shells within a mile would annihilate any existing torpedo boat before it could enter the required half-mile circle. SNAP SHOTS AT THE NEWS Jessie Scott, the little daughter of J. W. Scott, clerk of the Circuit Court at Fairview, Ark., was the victim of an outrage perpetrated by a negro named Bud Hayden. The negro was arrested and placed in jail. At noon he was taken from the jail by seven of the town's most prominent citizens and driven to Mr. Scott's residence. There he was identified by the child, whereupon he was handed over to a mob that had gathered at the house. The negro was dragged to a tree near the Iron Mountain railway, within a few feet from where Ed Coy was burned for a like offense a few years ago, and as he was jerked into the air his body was riddled with bullets. An Iron Mountain train was held over an hour, the mob refusing to get off the track. A thousand people gathered at Doyline, on the Vickburg, Shreveport and Pacific railroad, near Shreveport. La., to witness the burning at the stake of William Street, a negro who brutally outraged Mrs. Parish on the night of May 30. The people erected a post near the railroad track and laid the light wood and kindling, and saturated it with coal oil preparatory to chaining Street to the post. Street was a negro about 28 years old. He confessed the crime to a colored minister, but said another colored man named John Rhodes was implicated. When going to the stake he looked frightened, but refused to have anything to say. He was tied to the stake and uttered not a word as the crackling flames shot up in succession above his head. The flames were started at 1 o'clock. It was a sickening sight which lasted ten minutes, when Street was a charred mass. Well known lawyers made speeches, warning the crowd ofNegroes that such crimes would not be tolerated in a civilized community. The woman whom Street assaulted is in a most critical condition, and could not identify Street when caught, until a doctor held open her eyelids. A social passage at arms between Admiral Dewey and Prince Henry, brother of Emperor William, commanding the German squadron at Hong Kong, is told by a recently returned traveler in the Orient. Prince Henry, immediately after his arrival at Hong Kong, gave a harrow to the highman officer. Instructions to this effect have been cabled to Minister William R. Finch, the representative of this government in Paraguay, and he will lay it at once before the Paraguay government. No doubt exists in the minds of the officials that the commanding officer of the Temerario will comply with the demand of this government. Paraguay requested him to proceed to sea, promising to give him enough supplies to take him to the nearest friendly port. The Temerario's commander, however, replied that the condition of his vessel was such that he could not put to sea; she was unseaworthy, and before he could proceed on a voyage he would have to make considerable repairs. This statement was laid before the representative of this government, who forwarded it to Washington, and as a result of a conference between Acting Secretary of the Navy Allen and Secretary of State Day a demand that the Temerario be immediately dismantled if Paraguay permitted the vessel to remain within her boundaries was cabled to the American minister. Camp Merritt rejoiced Saturday night over a romance which was specially celebrated by the Twentieth Kansas Regiment. Capt. Fred Buchanan of Co. B, an attorney of Kansas City, Kan., was major when his regiment was part of the Kansas National Guard. Now he is senior captain, and when his regiment, as part of the United States volunteers, was ordered to San Francisco, his fiancée, Miss Lucinda M. Smith of Lawrence, Kan., followed him to that city to marry her betrothed before he sailed for the Philippines. Miss Smith reached that city on Saturday, and that evening the captain obtained leave from his duties at the camp and went into the city, sought the services of a clergyman and wedded the woman of his choice. Within the next two months about $20,000,000 will be shipped from Dawson City to San Francisco. Most of the treasure is said to be the property of the Alaska Commercial Company, their agents having bought the gold dust from the miners, and given checks in payment. The company will have three vessels on the route between San Francisco and St. Michaels this summer—the Bertha, Portland and St. Paul. The only United States vessel now in the north is the revenue cutter Bann and she is on a special mission. Mining of the Merrimac ble from Port au Prince, Hayti, date of June 6th, brings the following account of the sinking of the Merrimac at the mouth of Sanbarbor. A volunteer crew of Spanish sailors, heroes all, delibereced almost instant death at the of Santiago canyon this mornd, most of them sacrificed their life. The collier Merrimac made a through the narrow and crooked face of the harbor, braving the sweep of the Spanish fleet and braving mines with which the entrance is down. Indeed, the forlorn hope Merrimac seems to have been to the mines and leave a free enforcer the American fleet. The whose were ready, even anxious one chance in a million of exception the mine and escaping alive. letter of sending in a vessel has abated for several days. With out of the way there would reply the Spanish fleet for the can fleet to meet, for the Americation extinguished the fire of the harbor entrance this mornday. Morning the American fleet began to bombard the fortification. A lively cannonade ensued for ourselves, and at the end of that time ships were silenced. Then the mac, with the fullest speed, ad into the entrance of the harville the other American ships moving here and there in the ready to follow if by that one in a million she succeeded in sing. The Merrimac passed the name of torpedoes, although it is not difficult to take a big ship with the narrow, crooked channel. Observed her splendid audacity so astonthe Spanish it paralyzed them. And proceeded about 500 feet to the big bay when a torpedo was engaged. It struck her and tore a hole in her side, and she samk inperpendicularly by the bow. Of the brave crew who escaped death by the explosion that deher, or drowning were struggling water. The Spanish picked up her, an engineer and six sailors made them prisoners. It is not here how many were killed. Cessel settled on the bottom, so only the tops of her funnels and short masts are visible. As she passes she is an additional obstruction the harbor.

It measures 120 feet in length feet 4 inches in length, and it is that it breaks the record for A social passage at arms between Admiral Dewey and Prince Henry, brother of Emperor William, commanding the German squadron at Hong Kong, is told by a recently returned traveler in the Orient. Prince Henry, immediately after his arrival at Hong Kong, gave a banquet to the higher officers of the other fleets, among whom was Dewey. At the feast the Prince proposed a toast to Germany, Great Britain, and all other countries except the United States. Finally, just before the dinner was over, the royal host proposed a toast to this country. When Dewey saw that apparently his country was being slighted he left the banquet without ceremony. The next day Prince Henry sent a roundabout apology to the American commander. Dewey sent word back to the Emperor's brother that he would accept nothing but a written or a personal apology from the Prince. The latter then called upon Dewey and apologized, saying that in the confusion of the dinner, he (the Prince) thoughtlessly neglected to put the American toast in its proper place on the programme. Soon after Prince Henry gave a ball, but Dewey, although invited, did not attend. Fifteen convicts escaped from the United States penitentiary at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, in a mutiny on last Wednesday morning. After a lively chase one of them, James Musgrove, a Territory outlaw, the leader of the outbreak, was shot down. The others escaped. Eighty convicts, escorted by eight guards, had been marched to the stockade, where a large force of men were at work. There the convicts were divided into two squads, and left in charge of two guards, the other six going to their respective towers. Instantly the convicts overpowered and disarmed the guards, and compelling them to march ahead of them as a protection against the guns of the towers, got outside. When the first tower was reached Guard King was overpowered and made to act as a protector. Some of the convicts who had not been let into the plans of the mutiny, were taken by surprise, and while they marched to the gate, refused to leave. Others who went out returned of their own account. The fifteen who escaped made a dash for the woods, keeping well together. Musgrove, who led the convicts, finally became separated from the rest, and was surrounded by the pursuing guards. Just as he was levelling a gun stolen from one of the guards at one of his pursuers, he was shot from behind and fatally wounded. A reward has been offered for the other prisoners, and a small army of citizens and farmers are chasing them through the woods. All those at liberty are bad men. Many of them were Territorial outlaws. An experting of the books of Treasurer Krohn of Madera county, who was last week reported to have been robbed of $8000 by midnight marauders, shows a shortage of $7844 88, the amount being within a trifle of the sum alleged to have been forcibly stolen by the robbers. On the occasion of the robber Krohn was found in an unconscious condition late at night and bleeding in the doorway of his office. It is not certain that Krohn himself inflicted the superficial injuries found on him when picked up by the night watchman at midnight behind the closed outer door Within the next two months about $20,000,000 will be shipped from Dawson City to San Francisco. Most of the treasure is said to be the property of the Alaska Commercial Company, their agents having bought the gold dust from the miners, and given checks in payment. The company will have three vessels on the route between San Francisco and St. Michaels this summer—the Bertha, Portland and St. Paul. The only United States vessel now in the north is the revenue cutter Bear, and she is on a special mission. The gunboat Wheeling may be sent to St. Michaels to escort the treasure fleet to San Francisco. Thomas Kendrick, who is on his way to Dawson over the Stickeen trail, writes from Glenora that of the 1500 men who started by that route 500 turned back on account of the hardships encountered. James Holgate and Miss Olive Lawhead, a young couple of Norwalk, indulged in the romance of an elope-ment on Sunday, and thereby added to the interest and gossip of the day. The young couple, with several others, attended a dance at Alamitos Saturday evening, from which they returned early Sunday morning and soon after disappeared. Not until evening was it learned that they had gone to Los Angeles by train from La Mirada. On Monday morning two anxious fathers hastened to city, and after a few hours' search found the young couple enjoying themselves with planning preparations for a marriage. A search of the county clerk's records showed a license issued May 28th, one of "don't publish." The parents having had their anxiety relieved and having no objection to the match, gave their blessing and called in Rev. Dr. Cantine, who soon helped the young couple to a consummation of their desires. They returned to Norwalk in the evening and, having had their little flight, settled down at home. Marie Cicotte Wilson, the California beauty, who has made her home in both Los Angeles and San Francisco, was released on Wednesday last from the workhouse at Toledo, O., to which place she went arrayed in all the finery and fashion that money could buy. Her's is a remarkable history. She claims to have been married four or five years ago to H.J. Burroughs, an auctioneer widely known all over United States. Burroughs denies the allegation as much as she asserts its truth. The woman followed him from one end of the continent to the other, starting from Los Angeles three years ago, and has gotten into trouble at several places on account of her unusual demonstrations toward him. At Cincinnati she was locked up on a charge of perjury preferred by Burroughs. She created scene after scene in court by denouncing everybody connected with the case, including the Judge, and when sent to jail for a few days, refused to eat. She was finally acquitted at Cincinnati, and from there, accompanied by her mother, went to Freemont, Ohio; where Burrough's mother lives. Without introduction she bolted into the house and announced her intention of living there. She was arrested on a charge of assault, and the Mayor of Freemont fined her and sent her along with her mother; to the workhouse. She says she will sue the city of Freemont for heavy damages for false imprisonment. She will shortly return to California. The frequent reports from Spanish sources to the effect that a formidable fleet is being prepared at Cadiz to sell for the West Indies in aid of Cervera Stars and Stripes, in the shape of the largest flag in the world, will never Moro Castle, Havana, until Blanco surrenders. The imminent flag designed for this duty is easy prepared, and is now on exhibition New York. A patriotic Wallman has had the great flag. It measures 120 feet in length and 4 inches in length, and it is used that it breaks the record for it is so big that special bunting made for it in Washington. The flag measures 42 inches across in length. Made up in the flag, allow seams, each stripe measures 40 inches. It took a full piece of 40 yards each stripe, except where they run one jack. The jack measures 40 lengths and covers the space of seams. The stars are not very large, point to point each star measures ones. They are arranged in alternations of seven and eight, according to army regulations. The flag will be big as it is, it can be packed large traveling trunk, and will weigh more than 200 or 250 pounds. Navy Department is making an intensive test this week at the Indian improving grounds, near Washington. An automatic one-pounder rifle can be capable of firing 180 shots a minute. The tremendous advantage to be used by such a weapon may be applied when it is said that the best show in the naval service capable ofrowing one-pound projectiles and being by well-drilled crews, never less than 15 to 20 shots a minute, and that for a brief period. The terrific on light armor of such a gun be over-estimated, especially in against torpedo-boats, which can be rendered altogether useless daytime and perhaps at night if vigilant watch was maintained at their close approach. The effective range of a torpedo is scarcely mile, and until a torpedo-boat approach to within that distance of leship or other object of attack, presence may be practically ignored. Tritles from a one-pounder, howcan penetrate any armor it has been feasible to place on torpedo-boyers, and a gun that can throw one-pound shells within a minute annihilate any existing torpedo before it could enter the requisite ville circle. Spain's torpedo gun vessel, Temerario, will be dismantled, her guns removed and be put in as ineffective condition as possible or else leave the waters of Paraguay at once. This is the dictum of the United States, and Paraguay is expected to obey it to the small army of citizens and farmers are chasing them through the woods. All those at liberty are bad men. Many of them were Territorial outlaws. An experting of the books of Treasurer Krohn of Madera county, who was last week reported to have been robbed of $8000 by midnight marauders, shows a shortage of $7844 88, the amount being within a trifle of the sum alleged to have been forcibly stolen by the robbers. On the occasion of the robbery Krohn was found in an unconscious condition late at night and bleeding in the doorway of his office. It is not certain that Krohn himself inflicted the superficial injuries found on him when picked up by the night watchman at midnight behind the closed outer door of the tax collector's office. One theory that has found some adherents is that Krohn attempted to commit suicide and administered to himself a narcotic just before or after the injuries were inflicted by himself. In support of this theory it is urged that marks of bloody hands lead out to a shed at the rear, and that inspection has revealed the existence of a broken phial in the sewer ventilation pipe, on which there are bloody hand marks. If this phial can be gotten and the contents or label examined, it may throw light on the mystery. The other theory is that Krohn was drugged and robbed by others, under fear of exposure. It appears from the report of the expert that when Krohn settled, on Dec. 6, the shortage was as high as $9601 23, but since then more money has been paid in than was actually collected, so that the deficiency, when the last payment was made, on May 7 of the present year, was reduced to $7844 88, the amount now owing to the city. A close search of the office has resulted in the discovery of a bloody towel and tin box, of which the lock has been partly forced. The contents of the box are papers of little or no value, but are circumstances significant in that it indicates the possible presence of some one else in the office besides Krohn, who would certainly have known what was in the box and need not have forced the lock. Krohn is under surveillance. When told of the results of the expert's examination, he admitted that the books showed a deficiency, but insisted that it was on paper only, and that the money was in the vault on the night of the alleged robbery.
