tral near the mouth of the Mississippi
river. Over an inch of rain occurred at
Eads with an easterly wind of 30 miles

is probable that the very high barometric
pressure in the north. from the Atlantic
ocean to the Rocky Mountains, will pre-
vent its movement northward.
Fine cool and generally clear weather

have signed the necessary papers. 1t
| Is the plan to have these men sign the
papers and then place them in the
charge of a man appointed from their
| own number.
Lieut.. Hubbard is greatly surprised
at the number Of men who have volun-
| When he first come here he supposed it
would take a month at least to make
up the part of the quota required from
| this part of the State. Less than a
week has passed and a part of the re-
| quired number have come forward.
One thing aimed at more than any
thing else, is to get good class OF men
for the service. Those who make an
application are taken to the doctors
office and there they carry on as far DIS
possible the process of dsrobing. If.
when the men are in that condition, it
is found that they are men whose
habits of cleanliness are below the
standard they are rejected without fur
| ther examination.
This is done for the reason that if a
man cannot keep clean here he surely
cannot when subjected to the dust of
Camp Thomas. Should bum" make
his appearance his examination is car
ried on until some defect is found
which will disqualify him. The aim is
to get men who Will be fit representa-
tive of the State.
1t has been found since the officers
have been here that the greatest
trouble With the men is that they are
too short. Nearly all of the men who
make application are altogether too
short. Now and then man is found
who is under weight but as the major
ity of the men who make application
are farmers sons underWeight is the
exception rather than the rule.
All who apply are fearful that they
will not pass and a man over SIX feet
tall made appilcatlon, yesterday morn
ing, who was half trembling, fearing
that he would not pass, as he sisnified
his desire to enlist. There are nov
in the hands of the officers six applica-
tons from minors who have a written
consent from their parents to enlist.
The men who have passed are quar-
tered al the Hotel North, ana are ut
liberty to 90 where they please. Nom
have yet returned home but are plan
ming to do 50 before they are sent
away. Many who have passed are a5-
solutely without money and the only
amusement that they find is II hang
around the recruiting office or watch
the drcdge at work in the river.
