The N'hla- Kapmuh Indians of the interior of British Columbia have sweathouscs and indulge in Il treat somewhat similar to our Turkish blth.
 By the side of streams of melted snow, at some distance from the yll- lage, among the pines and frs, are two curious structures. One is made of small poles set up like the roof of q house. These are covered with fir boughs. and finally with earth, the door, facing the setting sun, has blanket hanging over 1t. Within, on the south side, is circular hole qn the groundD about two feet in diameter and one foot deep, filled with burned and cracked stones. The remainder of the floor is covered deep with q soft bed of fir twiGs Tn front of the door one will zee traces of n good-Sized fire, and many stones. both those that have been burn ed and blackened in the fire and those brought near. but still unused. This Is the mems swcathouSe, or part of .he hathing outfit of the village.
 The other structure k similar to thls in essentials, but at this particular village 1t Is not covered with soil. IL is rooted with blanket mats or skins when in use. This Is the swcathouse for taa women.

MILITIA COMPANIES
Recruiting and Maintaing Volun-
teers at Their Own Expense

The several companies of the National
Guard are doing their utmost to fill their
ranks to the maximum, as it is under
stood, other THU, gs being equal, that the
companies, which are nearest that figure,
Will be given the preference. The Off
GERS of the Carson Guard sent a recruit
ing expedition to Douglas county, and
twelve or fifteen men volunteered at
Genoa: The Guards taxed themselves to
defray the expense and also the expense
of maintaining volunteers until they are
order to the place of mobilization.
The Virginia City companies are also
recruiting, the expense being borne by
the officers or members of the companies
and the Winnemucca company is re-
ported as doing likewise.
Captain Stoddard of the Reno Guard
was informed that several young men
at WadswOrth desired to volunteer.
Many of these men have had no military
training whatever, and the advantage t.
them of being mobolized where they
could be drilled daily is apparent to
everybody, always excepting the individ-
ual who assume responsibility for what
appears in the editorial column of the
Gazette, and who for reasons well known
to his acquaintances should not be held
responsible for anything.
Adjutant General Corbin OF the L. S.
Army quotes the following decision Of
the Secretary Of War relating to vOlun-
teerS:
a absolutely necessary expenses for
the subsistence, transportation. shelter
ing and generally the maintenance of
volunteers during the interval between
their enrolment enlistment and their
muster or tor being sworn) into the ser
vice of the United States; also all incl
dental expenses connected Herewith.
such as the hire of offices, clerks, meSSen-
gers, etc, for mastering officers will be
met by the Government of the United
States from the appropriation at the dis
posal Of the several Staff Departments Of
the Army"
This decision of the War Department
shows that it is not expected that militia
companies Of States shall pay the ex-
penSeS of transportation or maiutainance
Of volunteers from. their homes ~ the
place of enlistment or for the subsistence
of the men from the time they enlist
until they are sworn iut0 the service of
the United States.
The advantage of drilling volunteers
was made apparent under the first call
for volunteers. When the Nevada troops
for the Second United States Volunteer
Cavalry arrived at Fort Russell. Wv0m-
ing, they were assigned the post of honor
in the regiment because they were the
best drilled men in the regiment. Dur
ing the three or four weeks they remain
ed in Camp at Carson they were drilled
daily and executed the various military
manuvers like veterans when thew left
the State. That the men who have vol
unteered for service in the infantry bat
TALON would be benefited by similar
training while awaiting orders to go to
the front, only one person who assumes
responsibility for the Gazette articles
will question and he would dispute any
thing that is based on truth or common

~wavering and proceeded to drive the
Spanish infantry before them. The latter
made a stout resistance.
The engagement became general all
