of ascertaining some particulars con-
cerning the aged veterans who arrived
Friday to test the virtues Of our
hot waters-the test being made with
a view to the locating of a national
hospital for disabled veterans at this
place.
We found Gen. Jos. F. Knipe. who
has charge of the detail, to be a most
affable gentleman, and aside from the
information relative to the personnel
of the old vets. which he furnished us,
he related mary things that would in
terest our readers. The following is

with the detail at the home, and is very
much pleased with the Springs, and
expresses surprise at finding so nice q
home for the old soldiers of the state,
and complimented its management
very highly.
Commandant Megrew has made ex-
cellent provision for caring for the
fresh detail and does not seem to be
Inconvenience in the least.
Maj. Campbell is happy as a clam
IN seeing the Leavenworth veterans
here at last. 1t was he who first OPEN
ed up correspondence with Gen. Aver
Ill regarding this test, and now to see
his ideas carried out is pleasant to him,
and we'll it may be. The STAR knows
well how the Maj. labored upon this.

never in better shape at this time Of
