NEEDED ON STATIONS.
Government is Not Going to Turn
Any of Them Loose Under Two
Years Except Those Unfit.
Washington, August 15. —With pe<o«
comes the Important question, 'What will
become of the volunteer army? To the
thousands of parents, wives and sweet
hearts of the volunteer soldiers an end of
the war means the immediate return of the
loved ones. It is probable that the rank
and file of the volunteers themselves look
at the matter in. this light. A bitter disap
pointment is in store for all who hold this
belief.
The army of the United States to-day is
comjtosed of about 45,000 regulars and
about 155,000 volunteers. There have been
two calls for volunteers. Neither of these
calls were fully enlisted, and since enlist
ment disease and death have thinned the
ranks, while many more have been dis
charged from physical defects. The reg
ulars have lost men in a similar way. It
is a fair estimate to say that the total m.ij
itary force of the United States today is
about 200,000 men.
Now, suppose the war ended today, what
use would Uncle 9am have for soldiers?
In the first place, there must be a stand
ing army in the United States. One always
has been maintained, and the government
would insist that an army of at least 25,000
men must be in service within the borders
of the country.
Porto Rico will become a part of the
United States, and a government must be
established there. Pending the growth of
a civil government military sway will be
necessary. No teas than 10,000 troops will
he required for this duty. The military es
tablishment would continue for a year at
the very least.
Nxt coms Cuba. If the island is turned
over to the Cubans the United
States is bound to keep order
until the Cuban republic is able to sustain
itself. If the island shall be kept by the
United States, bayonets will be needed to
keep order, while the people are being ed
ucated to the fact that they are part of a
civilized community. In either case not
less than 60,000 men will be needed in this
work, and it is hardly probable that a
stable government can be built up in less
than two years.
Hawaii will not need a big garrison, but
“just for looks,” and to keep any malcon
tents tn line, it is probable that at least
2,500 men will be stationed there. These
will probably stay until their terms of en
listment shall expire, when the ranks will
be filled from the recruits from the islands
or from the United States.
A naval station Is to be established in
the Ladrone Islands. This will make a
fairly strong garrison necessary to guard
the depot of supplies. About 1,000 is a low
estimate* for the Ladrones.
Then for the Philippines. When all the
men now under orders shall reach Merritt
he will have a force of 30,000. Until all
danger of international complication shall
be over none of them will be Withdrawn.
It is probable that the whole force will be
kept at Manila for nearly a year and then
gradually withdrawn.
To start with there was an army of
200,000 men. A|l the garrisons enumerated
above must be drawn from this force; but,
first of all, a further deduction must be
made.
PICKED MEN.
These garrisons will be of picked men,
and, as a result, the army will be culled
over. Sick men, convalescents and men
incapacitated by disease will be dis
charged. This culling will reduce the
army by at least 10 per cent.
The army then may be divided as fol
lows:
Cuban stations 60,000
'Porto Rico 10,000
Hawaii 2,500
iLadrones 1,000
Standing army (in the U. S.) 25,000
Philippines 30,000
Discharged for disabilities 20,000
Total 148,000
The volunteers who enlisted went in for
two years, and they may be held for the
full term of their enlistment. It Can be
readily seen therefore, that a treaty of
peace does not necessarily mean that the
vacant chair at home will be filled, nor
that the citizen soldier wil return at once
to the arts of peace.
The men in the state tamps may wind
up on some lonely South Pacific island, as
it is probable that the 50,000 men who ■will
be discharged will be the battle-scarred
“vets” of Shafter’s army and the Porto
Rican campaign.
The fighters who have done their
and the troops who will have so far re
mained in camp will be given a taste of
real military life. The military sharps may
fix up some scheme, but at present the
foregoing sizes up the future as seen by
the gossips here.
DR. WEAR’S GRAVE.
Unknown Parties Put Up a Headstone for

an imprivised grave in front of the resi
dence of Dr. R. D. Wear, Eighteenth a treat
near Fifth avenue. Dr. Wear i,s pastor of
the Cumbreland Presbyterian church and
ex-chaplain of the Fifth regiment, United

headboard and foot board and an inscrip

morning by members of the family. Dr.
Wear says the act was contemptible and
he had nothing to say about it, the perpe
trators being unknown and doing their act
in the shades of night. The act was pro

CADETS HEARD
GODDSERMON
Fourih Anniversary Was Cel
ebrated Last Night at St.
Joseph’s Church.
FATHER DE LA MORINIERRE
Preached a Strong Sermon on the
Strength of the Church and the
Unequal Struggle.
The St. Joseph Cadets celebrated their
fourth anniversary at the Catholic church
yesterday. At night an immense congrega
tion assembled to hear Rev. Father De
la Morinier, who had been invited to
preach the anniversary sermon. The Ca
dets, under command of Captain Gewinner,
occupied seats at the head of the aisles and
immediately in front of the altar. A spe
cial program for the musical part of the
service had been prepared by Professor
Weisz, the organist and choirmaster of
the church. Father De la Moriniere has
preached in Macon on several previous oc
casions and has always made a very strong
impression. Last night was no exception.
He is a pulpit orator possessed to a re
markable degree of dramatic force of ex
pression and gesture. His word painting
is very fine. Last night he reviewed the
life of Christ as illustrating the contrast
between the visible strength of earthly
sovereignty as evidenced in Augustus, as
against the apparent weakness of the
church as found in the babe in the crib
■and the crucified on the cross. But after
all, as a culmination of ’ten centuries of an
apparently unequal struggle, the church
came out victorious and conqueror over
the state in the person of the Caesar,
planting the cross in his palace and an
nouncing the absolute sovereignty of the
church in the world. Millions of martyrs
had fallen in the struggle, from Which the
church came out bathed in its own blood
and the strangest thing of it all was and
is that these millions of martyrs had fallen
rather than deny the Christ whose life be
gan in the crib and ended on the cross.
And even now, in the nineteenth century,
the martyrs are falling while day by day
■tihe king of kings became more firmly
founded.
•Father de la Moriniere spoke first on the
subject of temperance, which is the motto
of the St. Joseph’s Cadets. He pictured the
horrors caused by the demon of drink and
lauded the heroism of the man who came
out victorious in the struggle with the
monster. It was a good sermon well
preached, and was heard with the deepest
attention by all of the largest congregation
the church has ever had.

Bears the Kind You Have Always Bought
Bien .r
OUTLOOK FOR
THE WESLEYAN.
Interview with a Professor of
the College on the In
stitution’s Future.
“What are the prospects for aext ses
sion?” asked a reporter of The N*ws of a
professor of Wesleyan yesterday
“The prospects are brightening daily,”
said the professor. “Every day brings let
ters entering pupils. The representatives of
the college are going here and there In the
interest of the college, and are constantly
reporting the addition of new nana&s to
Wesleyan’s roll. Only yesterday Dr.
Roberts reported ten pupils obtained In a
two day’s visit to western Georgia. Last
night a lady from Decatur, the home of
Agnes Scott Institute, telephoned to Dr.
Roberts with reference to sending her two
daughters to our college. Another from
Atlanta wrote yesterday about her daugh
ter. He will see 'these and many others in
Atlanta this week, as he is now there. He
next goes to other important points in
North Georgia. Professor Game has just
visited with success several towns betwoon
here and Augusta.”
“This is something new is it not?”
“Well no, it is not altogether. Wes
leyan’s prestige is such that people are
naturally inclined to send to her. and, in
fluenced either way. would do so. but the
representatives of other schools are very
active, and use many devices to get pat
ronage.”
“Hence they have drawn much
patronage from Wesleyan, is it not so?”
“They have gained patrons without
douibt. but the public is likely to be mis
taken as to the relative patronage ♦!
schools by reason of the clamorous claims
of some, and advertising devices.”
“Several of these schools are more
numerously patronized than Wesleyan, are
they not?”
“I have almost been mistaken upon this
point myself. But yesterday a gentleman
told me I was mistaken as to the patron
age of that school, which I had come to
think had more pupils than any in tb*
state, save of course the Milledgeville
school with its free tuition, which I am
not considering. I consulted the catalogue
and to my surprise the enrollment was not
as great as Wesleyan’s. I went further
and found that, counting pupils of equal
advancement, Wesleyan had decidedly
more college pupils than any other college
in the state, and as many as any other
going merely by names of classes,”
“But was not the total enrollment in
some cases greater than Wesleyan’s”
“fin two cases. But remember that many
places are not so blessed as is Macon -with
a fine system of schools. These colleges
have a preparatory department, not of th®
high grade of our academy, and one has a
department, both well (attended. By Wes
leyan’s standard the school of largest en
rollment has about seventy college pupils.
That Wesleyan has not as many pupils as
at times in the past is true, and thia La
not strange. There are more colleges, in
cluding the state school for girls. And
then a college attempting to Improve the
curriculum may temporarily look for some
decrease in patronage.” A representa
tive of a Georgia school was heard a few
days ago to congratulate his school upon
what he termed Wesleyan’s university
plan, saying it had helped to build up big
school. Note the source of Ms joy; he,
not education, gains. He should be al
lowed to get all the happiness he can out
of this. Wesleyan wants nothing but the
good of education, and was prepared at the
recent conference of presidents of female
colleges at 'Atlanta to welcome all to a
proper college standard. But the person
knows well that Wesleyan is not, being
not attempting to be a university. He
knows well that Wesleyan is not being
unendowed, trying now to exact the re
quirements of Vassar, Wellesley and Bryn
Mawr, which only call themselves col
leges. The secret of the charge la that
since there is a difference between Wes
leyaai’s course and that of his school, un
less Wesleyan is a university, his school
cannot be a college.”
“But does not Wesleyan’s curriculum
contain the same subjects as other curri
cula?”
“Granted. But examine the curri
cula. -There are certain text books
that are well known to teachers as
primers, or at most as high school text
books. Now an education is not obtained
by memorizing these books. Education la
learning so think. This can only be by
applying the mind to that which requires
thought for mastery. Wesleyan use*
such books as are used in male colleges."
“But isn’t that a mistake?” “No. From
the very beginning of the movement which
resulted in the establishment of Wesleyan,
it was insisted that girls should have ax
equal chance with them. Consider the
eloquent address of Daniel Chandler at th®
State University in 1835, and Bishop
Pierce’s addresses. This idea has grown
Consult the register of the University of
Chicago, The mother has more to do with
forming the minds and characters of her
children than the father: -why should she
not be truly educated then 0 Weelevan’s
aim is the collegiate education of Southern
girls. She does not want the United
States Bureau of Education to publish to
the world that there are fourte/n read
female coleges in the United State*, only
one being in the South. We whnt to in
crease our patronage at home and abroad.
Dr. Roberts is not only an able preaoh&r,
but has had experience as a teacher, and
hia business capacity was manifested in
his inauguration, when he was agent of
Emory, of the loan fund movement which
has blessed Emory and helped many a
poor boy to get an education. Professor
Game, who succeeds Dr. Browder as pro
fessor of Latin and Greek, is a successful
teacher, and has resigned, to the regret of
all concerned, the presidency of the old
Cokesbury Conference school, -where Dre
Bass, Hinton and others, -were early train
ed, to come to Wesleyan. 'Mies Roberta
Hodgson, a native of Athens, Ga., is to
teach modern languages, having been edu
cated at the Woman’s College at Baltimore
and in Europe. She comes directly from the
Sorbonne at Paris. Dr. Goucher, president
of the “Woman’s College, and Dr. Lovejoy,
her pastor, speak in high terms of her in
tellectual culture, her Christian character
and her attractiveness.
Wesleyan’s management intend that
everything shall work together for her ad
vancement. It is not proper that our girls
should have to go off for a real college
education. It is intended that right here
in Macon shall be a real Southern college
for girls, and all Wesleyan’s future plans
are to that end. A parent wishing a col
lege education for hia daughter cannot do
barter than to send to Wesleyan.
