 The special train bearing three
 companies of the 11th infantry
 pulled into Whipple this mornipa
 at S:0 o'clock. The cars were de-
 tached from the engine while the
 latter came into the yards for coal
 and water preparatory to making
 the return trip with three companies
 of the 9th infantry en route east.
 The new arrivals at Whipple are
 companies A, c. and ID, commanded
 respectively by Captain Quinby,
 Captain Heistand and Captaia
 Macklen. Companies A and D are
 from Madison Barracks, New York,
 and left there on Wednesday after : noon May 4th. c company is from
 Fort Niagara and left that post On
 Thursday morning May 12th. The
 battalion was united at Bugalo, New
 York, leaving on the afternoon of May 12th and came by special train
 the entire distance from there. The
 troops are as fine looking body of
 men as has ever been in Arizona and
 arrived in fine condition and in er- cellent spirits. The trip was made
 without the least accident of any
 kind, and the men speak in the high est terms of praise of Captain Quinby for the privileges allowed them on the trip. Two of the con
 mand said today that they had been in the service for over twenty years but had never had so enjoyable trip as they had en route to Whipple. Many of the officers, as we'll as the men have seen service on the frontier. some of them in Arizona, so that their trip here is by no means new experience to them. Nearly all the officers have families so that Whip pie promises to resume its old time social activity it having beena feature of the post recently that large pro portion of the officers stationed there were unmarried. While our citizens follow the departing ones with their best wishes they extend hearty welcome to the officers of the 11th regiment, their families and the troops under their command.
