This will be a busy week for the Board of Public Works. Wednesday is the day fixed for the beginning of the hearing of remonstrances against the benefits and damages assessed on the Fall creek and White river parks. The hearing will doubtless be continued from day to day until all who object to the assessments have been heard. A number of attorneys are prepared to resist the assessments, and It now looks as though appeals would be taken to the courts. It Is likely that the board will overrule remonstrances, standing by the figures It has already made, although modifications may be made in some cases. The board anticipates that a good deal of time, perhaps two weeks, will be required to dispose of this step In the proceedings. There is some curiosity to know whether threatened Injunction suits to stop the entire effort to acquire parks will be brought. Attorneys who have been Interviewed are noncommittal and say that they cannot Indicate what policy their clients will dictate until it Is learned whether the board Is disposed to modify the assessments so aa to make them fair and equitable.

LIFE AT CAMP MOUNT IT IS MAKING BETTER SOLDIERS OF THE VOLUNTEERS. Work of Physical Examination Making Excellent Progress, and Will Soon Be Finished. * NO LESSENING OF NUMBERS . COMPLIMENT TO M'KEE BY A REGULAR ARMY OFFICER. * What It Takes to Feed the Hosts— Fate of the Signal CorpsCaptain May’s Desire. The work of physical examination goes rapidly on at Camp Mount, and as fast as the physicians reject men, others pour In from the towns where the companies were recruited to fill their places. Yesterday’s reports showed over 4,200 men in camp, just one more than a week ago, so that despite the “quitters” and the rejected ones the quota is full, with thousands of would-be volunteers still clamoring for the opportunity to go to the front. It is probable that again to-day thousands of visitors will swarm to the camp They will find It In better shape than a week ago, less like a Sunday picnic and more like a military camp. The officers have not been idle during the week, and the constant drilling has made better soldiers. Unquestionably both officers and men are anxious that the brigade should be moved soon, and the nearer to Cuba it can be taken the better they will be satisfied.

THE ACCEPTED MEN. Work of Physical Examination Goes Merrily On. Yesterday morning bright and early the regimental surgeons turned out and resumed the examination cf the men at Camp Mount for the federal service which, it is hoped, will be finished by Tuesday night in order that Captain May on Wednesday may muster the men Into the service and have them ready to move Thursday if the call comes. The examinations were pushed through with all possible speed, ‘but the regimental surgeons did their work well and were complimented by Captain Wakeman, United States army surgeon, who superintends the work. Captain Wakeman sat in Captain May’s office and with his pencil marked on the rolls men who had been accepted by the regimental surgeons, who are not so skilled as Captain Wakeman, and whom he rejected. Some of the wen were disposed to be angry at Captain Wakeman for rejecting them after the regimental surgeon had decided that they were fit but in almost all cases they became cool and understood that Captain Wakeman had no personal Interest In rejecting them and was simply following the regulations. In fact Captain Wakeman has shown a personal interest in accepting the men, for in many cases where he had marked for rejection men who had been accepted by the regimental surgeons he called them to his office and made a personal examination. He showed an almost fatherly Interest in Instructing these men how to show up to their best advantage. In one case a boy’s chest expansion was not large enough, two Inches, and the captain sent him out into the air to practice expanding his chest. In the evening he came back again but still could not expand far enough. “Your chest is all right,” said the captain, “but you don’t know how to expand it, look here,” and the captain’s chest swelled out as he drew breath into his magnificent lungs. “Go back to your company and practice to-night and come again tomorrow morning.” When the boy went out the captain said, “I’ll pull him through all right before I’m through with him." The following is a list of the men examined and accepted yesterday by the regimental physicians; It will be noticed that the commissioned officers of several companies wore rejected, in those cases their places w ill be filled by elections held In the companies: FIRST REGIMENT.

Ho tv Life Insurance Attracted Young Women. An “able-bodied” young man In a suit of blue ar,d brass buttons was hilarious over war life at the Grand Hotel last night. “I’m glad I enlisted if for only one thing,” said the soldier, “and that is the opportunities to get married which it has brought about. Os course, a fellow going to war wants an accident policy and a few thousand on his life, and so before leaving home I fixed myself in this respect. I've been trying for five years to find a girl who’d have me, and that’s no joke, boys, but as soon as it leaked out that I had taken out a big insurance policy you ought to have seen how the girls flocked to me. Why. there were a dozen or more down to the train to say good-bye. and they send me presents of fruit and nice things, and I’ll bet I’ve got nigh on to two dozen letters since I’ve been here from gals who wouldn't even look at me down in Cowan.” He ended the declamation with a hearty guffaw, and the dozen or more bystanders looked on with jealous eyes. —♦ NUMBER OF MEN IN CAMP. Yesterday’s Report* Showed that There Were 4,204. The consolidated regimental reports to Assistant Adjutant General Frank yesterday showing the number In camp were as follows: First Regiment Second Regiment 3“ Third Regiment Fourth Regiment LJJU Artillery 333 Brigade staff Total ;4 ' 294 This total, compared with that of Friday, shows that there Is just one more man in camp: Though a number of new recruits have come in, the men who have been rejected in the examinations are leaving and one influence has counteracted the other. —. HAVE EATEN A WHOLE I.OT. What> the Soldiers Have Conramed Since Camp Opened. With the stores on hand to last over Sunday. Camp Mount has consumed over three hundred thousand pounds of food, as follows: Bacon, 21,740 pounds: fresh beef, 37,897 pounds; canned corned beef, 12,000; soft bread. 42,873; hard bread, 16.146; beans, 8,701; rice, 6,600; hominy, 4,100; coffee, 6,000; tea, 1,200; sugar, 14,700; salt, 3,600; pepper, 281; potatoes, 63,981: onions, 31.011; tomatoes, 8,610; dried peaches, 3,024; canned corn, 9,012; cabbage, 7,740; earned apples, 463; prunes, 3,038: flour, 1,960. There have also been consumed thirty-eight barrels of pickles, 765 dozens of eggs, five barrels of vinegar and 17,100 pounds of ice.

Provision* for the Fnture. Lieutenant Peterson, the federal quartermaster at Camp Mount, is by all odds the busiest man in camp. His office is full of clerks, who are like himself worked to the limit of endurance. The work of equipping and victualing the troops grows daily In magnitude, and until all Inventories are made and arrangements completed for the perfect system of supplies that Lieutenant Peterson has in mind it is probable that it will be no lighter. Lieutenant Peterson is essentially a man full of - consideration for the common soldier, and It has been his wish all along to strain a point in order to supply the men wdth everything possible In the way of subsistence other than the regular army diet. Accordingly, he had made extensive arrangements to supply fresh meat, soft bread and vegetables as frequently as it was possible to obtain them, but yesterday he received orders from the chief commissary of the Department of the Missouri at Chicago to put the men on the regular army rations. In spite of these orders, however, the lieutenant wired that official, asking him for permission to continue serving the extra articles of diet as long as they were available In camp, and received a reply which authorized him to continue them periodically. It is probable that when the boys in camp know' the efforts of Lieutenant Peterson in this direction he will grow In popularity lmwas a letter from the chief commissary, advising him that he had shipped him 30.000 pounds of bacon, 40,000 pounds of hard brehd, •6 000 pounds of beans. 3.200 pounds of coffee, 6,000 pounds of sugar, 400 gallons of vinegar, 1,680 pounds of salt. 100 pounds of pepper, 1 620 pounds of soap and 600 pounds of candles. The prlnoial reason that Lieutenant Peterson is working so hard to get his affairs in ship-shape condition is that it is his purpose to have all accounts contracted while the troops are in camp at Indianapolis squared up before the troops leave for the scene of action. This will involve an enormous amount of work, but will be a record that he may well be proud of. ♦ CAPTAIN MAY’S DESIRE. Preferred Going to the Front t<* Staying Here. Captain May, of the United States regular army, who will muster In the troops at Camp Mount after they are examined, thinks well of the volunteer service, as is evidenced by his strong desire to be identified with the Indiana volunteers. The fact not generally known is that when Captain May was first assigned here he expressed his desire to Governor Mount to be allowed to serve with these troops at*the front in preference to going with uls own command or accepting any other duty that might be assigned to him by the War Department. At that time and on several later occasions Governor Mount expressed his wish to Captain May to the effect that as it was possible that a second call might be made for troops which would necessitate additional recruiting in Indiana he would prefer to have the benefit of Captain May’s services in some position attached to the executive department by which he could be made more or less of a fixture at the Capitol. While appreciating the compliment conveyed by the Governor’s wishes Captain May asked leave to reiterate his former request and be assigned to any command that the Governor might see fit to give him. While it Is admitted that Captain May would have been of immense service to the Governor as military adviser. Captain May’s personal qualities have made him extremely popular with all the troops, and every one seems gratified to know that General McKee will have the benefit of his extensive technical knowledge on the field. —• ANOTHER STUDENT COMPANY. De Pa atv Men Offer Their Service* to the State. Another company of students has been organized and been offered to General Mekee. Yesterday afternoon Captain John W. Webster, of De Pauw University, of Greencastle, visited Colonel Thayer, of the Second Regiment, with this purpose in view. He reported that he had raised a company of fifty-five men at the university, and cooperative arrangements had been made with Wabash College, at Crawfordsville, whereby the remainder of the required number of men was to be furnished by the latter institution. Both bodies of men. he said, were well drilled and fully up to the physical standard required by the federal authorities. With the remembrance In his mind of the excellent qualities displayed by the Vincennes students, Colonel Thayer sleaed on the opportunity thus afforded and took Captain Webster in tow to the headquarters of General McKee, whers the latter was asked if the company would be acceptable,

T he Suit House One of the largest and best known suit houses in New York thought the combination of war and weather too strong, and accepted our offer for 50 Suits of their finest make. Nearly every suit is silk lined. They’re the greatest bargains you ever saw, because we intend selling them at 50c on the dollar At the same time we will offer, at the sane big price-cut . . . Our Entire Stock of . . . Over 400 Suits Boyd, Besten Si Langert Cos 39 East Washington Street

and he said that the Indiana brigade would be glad to avail itself of their services. It la therefore probable that by Monday the boys will be in camp. TO FIGHT FIRS. Department Organized—Whole Brigade In Case of Necessity. A full-fledged tire department was organized yesterday at Camp Mount by courtesy of the city fire department officials. The old quartermaster’s quarters in Barn E was given over to the fire company, which will handle the old extra chemical engine which has been stored at the fire headquarters. The corps is under the charge of Oscar Stahlen, of the city fire department, who has had detailed as subordinates three of the soldiers. General McKee has also ordered that the provost guard, and at need the entire brigade be placed at Mr. Stahlen’s disposal. The plan of action in case of fire is outlined as follows: At the moment of the discovery of a fire it is the duty of the soldiers to report at once to the sergeant of the guard, who in turn will report at headquarters and order the brigade bugler to sound the fire alarm, which will be the signal for the department to begin operations. It is expected that this engine, with its ample help in the shape of men, will be sufficient to meet all emergencies at the fair grounds. FATE OF THE SIGNAL. COIIPS. It Will Go to tlie Front if McKee Is Appointed. In event of General McKee’s appointment as brigadier general of the volunteers it is a certainty that the present signal corps will go to the front in its entirety. Captain May will, of course, refuse to muster them as a corps, but the men will be enlisted in the different regiments temporarily and later withdrawn for signal service in a body. Thus they will, while in fact separated and disorganized, nevertheless in fact preserve their identity as an organization and give the brigade the benefit of their experience in heliograph and signal work, in which they have attained proficiency. Major Mclntyre, the leader of the corps, said yesterday that, as the indications were that the corps would be mustered in as privates in the different regiments and not as an organization, he would advise his men to do as they pleased in the matter, explaining to them that they would be mustered in as privates and would draw privates’ pay, though they might be detailed for signal duty. He said that he w'ould not advise them to be mustered in in this way, but that if they were so inclined, of course they could follow that Inclination. He stands in the position that Colonel Wright does; he feels that he may honorably retire from the service unless he receives an appointment which would permit him to serve with his men, and that if another is offered him he will recommend that it be given to one of his subordinate officers and then step out of the service. M’KEE’S FITNESS TO COMMAND. Major Barnett. Retired. Speaks Highly of Hlz Ability. With all the present speculation that is rife with regard to the probability of General McKee being commissioned as a brigadier general it is interesting to note the fact the good opinion held by Indiana people generally with regard to his military (fContinned on Sixth Page.) f Father Time’s scythe is a weapon that no man can escape. Sooner l or later it must v lay all men N With pretnaOfture death it is A different. Naj ture intended T that every man ) should live a I long and useful life, and die a peaceful, painless death. Men defeat the intention of a b ene ficent Providence by the manner in which they live, their disregard of the laws of health and their utter failure to protect health when it is threatened and restore it when it is lost. The most common result of neglect of health is that dread disease, consumption. Not many years ago it was considered incurable. Now it is known that Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery will cure 98 per cent, of all cases if taken in time. That is its record during a period of thirty years. Many of the thankful patients have permitted their names, experiences and photographs to be reproduced in Dr. Pierce’s Common Sefise Medical Adviser. Any sufferer who wishes to investigate these cases may secure a copy of this book free , by sending 21 one-cent stamps to cover cost of mailing only, to the World’s Dispensary Medical Association, Buffalo, N.
