THE EVENING STAR, THURSDAY, JUNE 9, 1898-14 PAGES. The Busy Corner, 8th and Market Space. FE a MT S.Kann,Sons&Co. Remnants, Yet Not Remnants! Not remnants in the hackneyed sense of the word—no left-over Pieces of undesirable goods or season-aged patterns. There isn’t a yard of that kind of goods in all our store. Remnants here mean new fabrics, crisp from the looms—just as good in style, just as perfect in color selection, just as lofty in quality as any lot of piece goods made— they're merely the short pieces of the mills—dress pattern lengths which the makers can’t handle, and which they find more profitable to let us have—there’s no difference ‘twixt a piece of goods and a remnant of this sort in the least, save in the price—and you can save half of that. © RTED WASH GOODS, CONSISTING OF ALL-SILK y 4c OU © SELINE DE SOTE, SILK ar S GINGHAMS AND SILK I FIGUR ‘D, = IN 25e.

A single example should suffice to convince them. Assumirg that a regiment suffers severely in an engagement, while the rest of the troops are intact, the di- vision surgeon has at his disposal the hos- pital corps of his division, with all its ambulances to succor the wounded, instead of leaving the regiment with its few hos- pital attendants under the old system to struggle with more work than they can at- tend to, perhaps leave the wounded suffer- ing on the battlefield, and the next day with its few ambulances trying to reach a tainments of the sort. Nevertheless, blood is thicker than water, and the other commands in camp are just a bit neglected nowadays for the 3d Vir- gina. Good things come in packets, bas- kets and hampers from every part of the state. The people about the camp carry in their contributions themselves, and they carry more than enough to keep the regi- ment alive. Captain Joe Willard received a contribution this morning big enough to keep his company in sweetmeats until the n| the or while acc lat minutes of his arrival, so that, if the pay- enjoy the use of your purchases accumu! master had found it possible so to do he might have pald the entire corps before 2 o'clock.

Moreover, this was the attitude of the War Department, and in organizing a division hospital to do all the work of the corps Colonel Girard was but executing orders from his supe- riors. If the regimental hospitals suffered in_the operation it was not his fault. The officers themselves, many of -whom are assigned to service in the division hos- pital, are not mollified by Colonel Girard's explanation. Their position is the same as yesterday, when they presented an almost unbroken front of opposition to the whole troops. As a straw in this direction, it is stated that the postal authorities have for the present abandoned their purpes3 of erecting a frame building at Camp Alger for use as a post office, and have taken up temporary quarters in a tent. In case the camp is to be anything lik> permanent the frame building will be erected, but no ac- tion in that direction will be taken until the department reaches a final decision with regard to the matter.
