J GHIGKAMAUSfI ■ lias Baen flamed Rs R l| Rendezvous For Troops ■department decided ® ■Jpon This Movement On Yes terday. Chickamauga Park was yeeter <l lav named as th*' rendezvous for . Mm 3 ()()() United States troops which ilvill be -ei.t there for the purpose ||)f maneuvering. It. is claimed that It in only a military movement Ijind for the purpose of maneuver* H ng the fuops. h Despite the fact that the troops be sent to Chickamauga park, ‘ 'WJeneral Graham, acting under m- Jlstructions previously received, will I continue to inspect suitable land near McPherson for the encamp /I nient of a large body of troops. The sending of a large number )f soldiers to Chickamauga park appear-* to be for the purpose of getting them in the southern por tion of the country where they llcan be sent to Cuba or to the coast deities. The troops which have b«en jordered to move are mostly ne gro regiments, and these it i* : thought will t>e the first to ‘be sent 1 to Cuba in case of war. I It is under food that in event Hos war none of the troops wi'l ‘be | stopped in Chickamauga park, but jwiil be sent on to the places they are to be stationed, or to Cuba it I need be. The naming of a rendezvous for the troops has been. expected foi | some time since it. was known | that the government desired to have II troops in the southern states where they could bi* dispatched n ! a short time to forts on the coast I where they could be used in case of h< siilitn s. Chickamauga park, where tin troops v. ill gather, is filteen mile* < from Chattanm ga and is in thr slate of Georgia . It is one of the i most beautiful parks in the south and covers quite an extensive area ! of land. Il is under the care of the I government and is admirably fit- I ted for the encampment of a large ! body of troop. A river of excellent water i winds through the park and ■ there will be no trouble on this I score. The place is considered a I very healthy one and the troops I will be made comfortable in ev- I ery way. (The decision of war de- I partment to maneuver the troops . and have them gather at Chica ll mauga park is the result,, it is believed, of the developments in the Cuban situation in the past I few days. The government has ! been making inquiries and in ! E vestigating for several days and General Graham and Col. Ball have been conducting these. ' Gen. Graham will today inspect ; some laud near Fort McPherson, but whether this means that 4 troops are to brought to this city (■ is not known. Whether the rendezvous at !Chicamauga parks was decided on instead of the 'reserve camp which has been spoken of is not known. The rendevous is for the 1 purpose of instructing the troops •I and for maneuvering them, I while a reserve camp would be I for the purpose of holding them in readiness to go to the front. —Constitution. / On the morning <<f Feb. 20, I 1895, 1 was sick with rheuma tism, and 1 lay in bed until May i 21st, when I g>t a bottle ol Chamber]ain’s Pain Balm.
