tba oastorn horizon thin morning every­thing was tn readiness a t the Boa Girt camp groudda for tho reception of tho 8,000 volunteers of tho national guard.

All yesterday a large force of mon woro busily engaged nutting on the finishing touches, aud the arrival of the soldier boys today made tbe camp as­sume a warlike appearance.

Camp Voorhees, as it is named, is laid out in streeta, each avenue tho rendez­vous of a company. On the east, near tho ocean,Is tbe section to bo occupied by the First regiment, of Noworb. In tho centre art) tho quarters of the 8eooml regfmont; of Paterson, while the Third regiment Is assigned to the western ex­tremity of tho field and adjoining the commissary department. Tho brigade hendquertere is dirootly In front of tho western moss ball, ond just north of "Tho Little W hiteHouso/’ Major Gen. Plumo’o fly tent, wbioh was surmounted by the offlclal’ flag today, ie tho most conopiououo plcco of canvas on tbe field. The tonte of hfsotaff oflioora flank either oido and aro ail floored. Tho brigade officers will mess together in the mess room just boob of Gen. Plume's tent. AH the other officers will mess with tbeir commands ia the open..

The camj) to co arranged that the cap­tain of each company may loob out from tbe folds of his tent down tbe ave- nuo on whioh hlo command is rested and beep a watchful oyo on his men. TWpooh'o tent and the portable cook­ing ptensils are at the south end of each company atreet. All tho officers’ tents ore boarded, but the rank and file have nothing but green gross for a flooring Deputy Quartermaster-General Earley said yesterday that there wonld prob­ably bo no restHctions to tbo general foraging expedition for old boards and planks that the troops would certainly begin when they arrived in camp.

The commissary departmont has re­ceived several additional conveniences, including a general office from which tho stores will be issued under direction of tho quartermaster-genoral’s depart­ment.

One tent near General Plume’s quar tern displays this iegond: “ The Only Push in the Camp—Polly and the Pig.

Governor Voorhees wasonthogrounds early to receive the troopa as they marched into camp. Major General Plume will make pubiio his ordora for tho government of tbo camp tbis after­noon. They are expected to be very strict nnd in accord With tbo roles in tbo regular army, to • -.- - -

After tbe men are regularly mastered into service their uniform will bo made to bonform to that used in the regular army. Shoulder strap colors will be changed from light blue to a white background. They will wear campaign bate and army belts. These will be sap- plied after their arrival in camp. Tho Unit camp msss prepared by the com pony cooks, will be served at sundown today, each volunteer being required to carry ono cooked ration in bis haver- Bach. - -v

Major General Plume will establish an inside and outside guard Immediate ly after the troops are all reported. Ad­mission to tbe camp will be a difficult matter. -

Tbe volunteers will be put through a rigid physical examination before helDg mustered into tbe service of the United States. Secretary Alger has designated AEsistant-Surgeon W. C. Govas, U. S. A., to perform this work at the Sea Girt camp. The Jersey troops will be mas terea into the government service by Copt. William Butler, of tbe Third United Stateq infantry, who is military Instructor at Rutgers college, New Brunswick. Secretary Alger has also designated Lieut. Mtcnael J . Lenlhan, of the Second United States infantry, to perform tne duties of quartermaster and commissary a t Sea Girt prior to the mob­ilization o t tho Jersoy division a t tho central points. He will net in harmony with Quartermaster Goneral Donnelly ond his deputies. ........... -. - - :

Gov. Voorhees, os cotnmander-in chief of tbe New Jersey volunteers, has directed Col. Alexander O. Ollphant, who ia an inspector on Major General Plume's staff, to report nt tbe camp for temporary duty on his personal staff. The following-military officials will, in all probability, be on duty a t the camo:, Adjutant-general.W illiams.Stryker; nsololant adjutant-general,. Col. Henry P Perrlne; deputy adjutant-general, Lieut.-Ool. James S. Kigev; quarter­master general, Richard A. Donnelly; deputy quartermaster generals. Col Cyrus F. Lontrel, Col. William H. Ear­ley. Col.

fever heat^in this city all day long, caused by a double celebration^ First, the grand viotory achieved by Admiral Dewey and his brave followers a t the Philippine Islands, nnd seaond, the de­parture of Company A for Son Girt, where they will bo mustered into ser- vioo in thq United States army. •'

Orders were reoeivod Saturday for the home company of citizon-eoidiers to pro­ceed to the state camp today, and slnco that time they have boon busily engaged completing final preparations to move.

At daylight this morning patriotic citizens began to display tbe stars and stripes in honor of tbe departure of the nation’s defenders, nnd by noon the en­tire city was almost a solid mass of American flags-and 'bun ting floating from ovory flagpole, housetop and busi­ness plaoe.

Mattison avenue was particularly no­ticeable in this respect. The entire street from Main to Emory streets was almost submerged with American col­ors. Three large flags were snspended over the street: One in front of the meeting rooms of the Jr. O. U. A. M., another a t Sanford's bicycle rooms, and a third in front of the P r e s s office. Tbe Wesley Engine house was also decorated with an abundance of flags and bpqting. In * fact, every business house along the avenue had been decorated in honor of Company A'a departure.

Captain Muddell assembled his com­mand a t the armorv, Library Hall, at 9 80. After tbe formation of the com­pany, Rev. Howard T. Widdemer made a few remarks to tho boys in blue, bid­ding them God speed and a safe return.

The company then marched up As­bury avenue and down Main street to the Ocean Grove gates; countermarched to Cookman; down Cookman avenue and up Mattigpn to Main, where arm8 were slacked and the boys broke ranks for 20 minutes. During this interval Councllmac Appleby invited the boys to have soda at the Mattison avenue phar­macy and the invitation was accepted.

The boys presented an inspiring scone as .they marohed along, escorted by tbe veterans of C K. Hall Post. G. A. R. They were in heavymarching order, with overcoats rolled on top of tbeir knap sacks, and as thev stepped with steady tread to' the musio of fifejand drum, it recalls* vividly the days of '61. [

Thousands of people lined the streets antj chbered the company to the1 echo. One, of the brass cannon owned by C. K. Hall post, and the large mortar boomed In Railroad - square continually during the morning. .- . to '-' ;

The drummers sounded the assembly qt 13.10 and the company marched to the depot, wherp they patiently awaited the arrival of tlie special train, whichwas to take them to Sea G i r t . ------------

I t was here that touching scenes were witnessed. Fathers, mothers; brothers, siBters and sweethearts, wore all there, and gave a parting good-bye to the brave fathers, sons, husbands or lovers who have said, “ We are ready to defend our country’s honor.” Many of the members of the company received floral tributes from loved ones. Mrs. Hayes, a member of the Woman’s Relief corps, distributed neat boquets among all of tbe mombers. ’

While waiting nt the station, two apodal trains passed sontb loaded wi[t) volunteer guardsmen. As the trains thundered past the soldiers were given a grand ovation by tbe immense throng on the depot platform.

It was first l.SO^vhen the special train which was to transport Compnny A stepped at the station. At 1 55 the boys were all on board and the train moved out amid tremendous cheering and the waving of handkerchiefs and fiagB. ’­

As the crowd left the station many eyes were dimmed with tears, and sor­rowing friends and relatives returned to their homes to dream of the horrors of war and to pray for th e return of tlieir loved ones. ,

The boys have gone to tbe front as volunteers and are at the call of the United States government. They will be subjected to regular army life and are entitled to much praise and honor for their .bravery, whether placed in actual battle or not. The prevailing sentiment is, however, that the Jersey troops will never be -called -front Sea Girt, but nevertheless they have shown courage aDd bravery by volunteering their services. . . . ‘

Many people are anxlons regarding the camp restrictions; how the borne boys will make out in regular army ser­vice, and whether or not visitors will be allowed on the.camp grounds.

The P re ss will endeavor to furnish complete news from 80a G irt, from day to day regarding tlie work and move­ments of the soldiers; nnd especially concerning the welfare of our own Com­pany A; o->- '

- E loquen t nnd Pntrlo tio .The morning and evening sermons de­

livered yesterday by Dr. MiDgins in tho Westminster Presbyterian church1 wero filled with allusions to patriotism and the present war. “A Happy Nation” was his morning topic, in tbe presenta­tion of whioh our country woe pic­tured in glowing terms from every standpoint. In tbe evening the subject was "The March of Progress—God's War Against Error,” in whioh the war question was again a,prominent feature of the address.

L in im e n t to r th e S o ld iers .Before Company A left for Sea Girt

today A rthur Hope, with the oonsent of Captain Muddell, presented eaoh mem­ber with a bottle of Golden Age Lini­ment. The gift was highly appreciated by tho soldier boys, and many of them may have oocasion to use it, with good results.

WAR IS JUSTIFIABLE. —

T b e C au se o f H u m a n ity D e m a n d s S u o li A c tio n .

Prior to his evening sermon yesterday In the West Grove Methodist church, Rev. W. G. Moyer gave a short but ex­ceedingly interesting prelude on tne qustion, “ Is W ar With Spain Justifi­able? ” A synopsis of his talk follows: '

A sentiment for peace has 'been growing , for moro than a quarter of a century. Because of tbo growth of re­ligious sentiment and tbe march of pro gress and education, it bad been- fondly dreamed that war was improbable. The United States is a C h ris tia n nation, a rich nation, and a happy nation. with no need and no inclinations for conquest. But today we find her confronting a changed condition—about to face an er.omy at once strong, cruel and perse vering. Is war with Spain justifiable? Upon what ground can the action of the tresident and congress of the United Rates he justified? Upon humanatarlan grounds alone. Is there such a ground? Read the answer in the condition of Cuba, the Pearl of tlie Antilles, sick and famished and persecuted. Shall we not do for Cuba what we blamed Europe for failing to do for Armonia? This is a just war—not for any greed of gain; not for conquest or revenge, but prosecuted for tlie same splendid motive that im­pels a strong man to fly to tbe reaoue of a siok and abused child. This is a right­eous cause, and one upon which you need not fear to ask the blessing of Al­mighty God.” ' , .

Fights and -Wins a Great Naval ' • Hattie In Manila, ■

You need not look in a dic­tionary to know, that a fake is a pretension. When a man pretends to sell you a $2 hat for $i 50 or $i .69, that hat is.a fake. W e won’t call it a fraud ; it is probably

- worth the price, but why say’ anything, about the higher

figure ? W e charge just $2 for our “ two dollar- hats, and that is exactly what we call them. They’re a good, solid,, satisfactory two dol­lars’ worth, ' W e carry both Alpines and Derbys from $ 1 to $3, but our $2 hat is hand shaped in all the popular blocks, and will look well as long as you wear them.

See.. Our W damSow.W e do not exploit catch­penny prices— 99c., 59c. and similar figures find no place here. Their common use is to raise prices, and by artifi­cial appearance to convey a false notion of cheapness.

TBS Europeans have had an idea that, '.because we-were ao distinctly a com­mercial nation and avowedly unwarlike that we weife untrained in military mat­ters. They have not realized that in ad­dition to our state militia almost every college and academy in the country maintains a military department, and that military drill an d jb e study of mil-. itary tac tic siaap art of the. curriculum for from one to four years.

Should a war of any magnitude result from the present crisis,- it will be dem­onstrated that we. not only have millions of men acaustomed to military disci­pline, but' we have a goodly number of men schooled in military science th a t will make competent officers.

Spain will realize that Americans don their uniforms not as a means of living off the government or for glory,’’but for business, and that no people on earth can or do push business with more en* ergy. __________ * ‘ -

asmuch as the most dainty effects are combined with a most moderate de­gree of cost. 0 . •

We’ve made a most careful search­ing for all that’s of merit in Wasff Fabrics, and fancy we’ve succeeded so well that competition is shadowed.

In Dress Woollens and Silks we make claim to the leadership and sub­mit our well selected line qf standards and novelties in substantiation. .

A little' talk on Spring Clothing will now perhaps be well received. The same well fitting garments as in past are now here. No man so large or no boy so small but here can receive his proper fit. While there are no start­ling innovations in spring clothing, still there are many new and pleasing ’ features which it is our pleasure to in* troduce. It should be borne in mind that we make to order in all classes of goods and in making to order we make to fit

Of course Millinery is having a strong call now and we are working at rush speed to keep up with orders. There are many Strong points con­nected with our millinery business which appeals to your careful considrl. e r a t i o A " • ■ ' ' ' . *
