After spending ten years at Fort
Sherman the Fourth infantry left for
Fort Sheridan, Ill, last Monday. The
Sixteenth infantry, which is to garrison
Fort Sherman, came in from Fort
Douglas, Utah, the same day and the
officers and men during the week have
been very busy getting located and fixed
up In their new quarters. The Fourth
had many warm friends In this place
who regretted their departure. The
new regiment is composed of a fine
body Of men and many of them express
themselves as well pleased with the
change. The band, now playing at the
Spokane fruit fair, is said to produce
fine music and Is considered one OF the
best in the army.
1t is surprising to many that foot
ball players and other athletes regard a
sprain or bruise of SO little consequence
One reason of this is, they know how to
treat such injuries so as to recover from
them in few days, while others would
be laid up for two or three weeks, if not
longer. Writing from Central State
Normal School, Lock Haven, Pa, Mr..
