QUARTERMASTER BLfIJVIEO —L—*2— And Denounced- Orders for -Vater Boilers not Honored Lexington, Ky.,Snpt. 22—Whili Secretary of War Alger was here General Waites told hnn that the neglect of sume quartermaster# tcq furnish supplies was criminal. While in Chickamauga he fre quently made requisitions which were not honored. An imperative order had been sent to have ail water boiled. He bed made a requisition on Quartermaster General Lee for water boileis.No attention was paid to hie requisition and after repeatedly urging Quartermaster Genora! Lee to send th* boilers, telling him how the men were con trading typhoid foyer, he was met with a reply which read ; , “The war department dees not furnish boilers. ” General Waites then purchased the boilers himself, but the seeds of typhoid had been sown, and ths daily reports showed the list of deaths and of cases in the hos pitals. Pointing at Quartermaster Ludington, General Waites said: “These men cannot say it was somebody else’s fault, It was the fault of Quartermaster General Lee and it was the fault of Quar. termaster Ludington, who is stand ing right there. ” Ludington made no reply to Waites, as Sternberg had done to Sanger. SAYS BOILERS WERE SENT. Washington,September 22—The quartermaster's department of the army states that the claim made by certain officers that boilora were not furnished for boding water at Chickamauga is not true. On the same date that Chief Qaartermas ter Lae telegraphed for the boilers 2,000 were sent and a little later 500 more. It is also stated that the soldiers would not drink the boils ed water because it had a flat taste and preferred and drank the fresh water.

From present indications the opera house will be jammed to night and all who can secure |seats before the doors open will be more lucky than those who come with “maddening throng.” The company arrived today. It was a pleasing sight seeing the farniLar faces of Mr. Peru chi’s company hobnobbing witn our leading citizens and the mutual regard of affection and friendship renewed. We are in formed that this present com pany excells everything hereto fore seen. Judging from the newspaper's reports of Nashville and Atlanta this must be so. Theatrical managers when successful often forget little things that made the public like them and place them on the road to prosperity, but Peruchi goes them one better every time, He watches 11 is company like a ! hawk does a sparrow and the least little thing that goes wrong an extra rehearsal is called. The consequence is that every play I is rehearsed with such careful 1 detail that a magnificent per formance at night is the result. Nor does stage responsibility stop there —when the vaudeville artists appear between acts an other stage manager takes entire charge of that department until finished. The reputation of the Peruchi- Beldeni Co , has beou well earned ' by care and brains and continues « “brushing up” of detail in all i plays with a wise selection and/ judgement pro bono publico— therefore the merry little come-i‘ dian Peruchi can well, without 1 egotism, say Veni Vidi Vici.
