From Tampa, Florida.

TAMPA, Fla, May 30, 1S9S.- Mir. J. F. Stafford: l will write you again to-day. We have been in camp here two weeks. The volunteers are drilling and gt tting equipped, while we are patiently waiting for orders to proceed on to Cuba. l tell you anything but laying in camp in such a country as this. The heat is just intense here, though we have 8 breeze from the gulf in the evening. There are now some 30 transport ships waiting here in the har- Dor to carry us over. All the men seem to be getting out of patience waiting
 1 have met two Fayetteville boys here in the regular army. One is Mir. Melton. He knows you-says he has played in the band with you. He is now In the 9th U. s. infantry band here. The other is Mir. Howell He used to be at the university at Fayetteville. He is in the 18th U. s. infantry. So you see old Washington County has three boys at the front. IL was a great pleasure for me to meet those boys. We get to- gether most every day and talk about old Arkansas and the folks at home.
 As to our future mouements l cannot tell you 3 thing. We do not know anything about when we will go on. We are simply held in readiness to go at any time. l received only one copy of your paper. Please send it here now, as the mail forwarded from Georgia does not find us very we'll. l will close as 1 know nothing of any note to tell you. Give my kindest regards to all.
 Very respect,
 l.. B. FITZGERALD,

Cuba's Morro Castles.

Before the operations of American war ships in Cuban waters interested folks in the nomenclature and geography of that neighborhood, most people thought that Moro castle meant a particular fort at the mouth Of Havana har- Dor. In a hay way It was imagined that the fortress was named after some Mir. Morro or other. Now, the Morro at San Juan and another and another at Santiago has sent the in quisitive ones to their diction- aries, where they find that the principal meaning ol Morro is "anything round; or projecting over an eminence; an over hang ing like of a precipice."

Down in Arkansas.

ISilver Review, Carthage, Mo- Last Sunday was pleasantly passed by the publishers of the Review in a visit to their for
 mer home at Springdale, Ark ansas. It is a most happily To cated little business center, and has many points to recommend it to home seekers.
 The strawberry pickers are there numerously and tue ship ments are qnite heavy although nothing like they would have been but for the late frost that visited seemingly the entire country thls year. The berries are very fire and the price is better than i: has been for years
 Springdale has population of about two thousand people and on the whole they are act i've, energetic, progressive, in many ways cosmopolitan and m all things pretty well up to date. The country round is strictly devoted and adapted to fruit growing and at this sea son of the year it resembles one immense fruit and flower garden.
 On our way down we crossed the narrow belt laid waste by the recent cyclone and Tn its wake is only desolation. The trees that are not broken or up- rooted are killed and burned and the same is true of the crop It is a matter of congratulation that the strip effected is very narrow and consequently the damage done is not great.
 While there we enjoyed the hospitality of the Springdale Hotel, conducted by Col. Ren- ner and his excellent fami ly, and by the way when visiting or doing business in that sect Ion, call on the Colonel and you will be we'll fed and housed Cap. kensil IS still head clerk and he is just as fat and, good

The Oregon Has Joined The Fleet.

Key West, June 2.-The United States battleship Ore gon joined the fleet this morn ing, finishing the most remark able long-distance cruise in the history of modern ironclads. Her reception by the fleet was worthy of her achievement. Coming along at a 15 knot speed, she swept in a majestic semicircle through the fleet, to q point opposite the flagship, solid ranks of white clad, cheer ing sailors manning the sides of each vessel as she passed.
 The first news of the Oregon's arrival at Key West was brought to the squadron by the Associated Press dispatch boat soon after sunrise. The crew was on the lookout, and when almost noon there loomed up a gray hulk on the north west horizon. there was vigOr- ous wig wag3ing from ship to ship. Marine glasses showed the ponderous outlines ot the navy's crack heavy weight. and showed, also, that she carried "a bone in her teeth" as she piled mp the white water on each side of her bow.
 "Fifteen knots if it's a mile," was the verdict as she raced in on the home stretch of her long journey and the watches held on her as she approached af- firmed it She had a decided list to port from hastily filled bunkers that there had been no time to trim since dashing into Key West for fuel and out again. But her short stay there spoke volumes for the mechanism of Pacific built ship which could do a 13,OOO mile run, throw in fresh coal, and steam out to what might be a battle ground, without stopping to even tighten a crank pin.
 The dispatch boats lying outside the squadron raised their flags as the Oregon bore down between them. while her officers and men waved their hands and caps were si- lently lifted.
 The big fighter slowed down to a majestic pace and then the noise arose. Rank upon rank of white clad sailors broke Into yells phich came from over half a mile against the wind, and the crew of the Oregon sent them back with interest Then the ships each white with men renewed their greeting and each vessel of tha fleet joined in again, and as the Oregon glided in between the flagship and the Indiana, the latter's band played the "Washington Post March,"
 Then the exchange of visits began, and the officers and men were heartily complimented and welcomed by all.

Miles Addess to the Army.

Washinton, D. o., June B. An order by Maj Geu. Miles, commanding the army, urging upon on offic es and privates that the faithful observance of the laws and regulations of the military branch is essen tial 10 the honor and efficiency of the army, was made public today. It bears date of Mem orial day, May 30. The order is as follows:
 After a prolonged period of peace our army is once more called upon to engage in war Tn the cause of justice and hn manity. To bring the military forces to the highest state of efficiency and most speedily accomplish what is expected should be the earnest effort and call forth the best energies of all its members of whatsO- ever station. The laws and regulations which govern mili- tary bodies in civilized coun- tries have developed to their present perfection through the experience of hundreds of years and the faithful observance of those laws and regulations is essential to the honor and eff cheney of the army.
 All authority should be ex- ercised with tirmness, equity and decorum on the part of su- periors, and should be respect ed by implicit obedience and loyal support from subordi mates.
 Every officer of whatever grade will so far as may be in his power, guard ard preserve the health and welfare of those under his charge, He must la bor diligently and zealonsly to perfect himself and his subor- dinates in military drill, 1n- struction and discipline; and above all, he must constantly endeavor, by precept and ex- ample, to maintain the highest character, to foster and stim- ulate that true soldierly spirit and patriotic devotion to duty which must characterize an effective army. The Major General commanding confident ly trusts that every officer and soldier in the service of the re- public, each Tn his proper sphere, will contribute his most jealous efforts 10 the end that the honor and character of the army may be preserved untarnished and it's best effors crowned with success.
 This order is given upon a day sacred to the memory of the heroic dead, whose services and sacrifices afford us exam. pie and inspiration, and it is expected that all will be fully impressed with the sacred dn- ty imposed upon the army by the government of our beloved country
