A Strong Combination.

The Tifton (Ga.) Gazette says
that Mr.. W. A. Moore, of Willach.
ochee "hasa breed of hogs with hoofs
like those of a mule-with no cleft,
He secured thebreed at Fernandina,
Fla, and claims that they ale cholara

animal that unites the general
characteristics of the hog with the
business end of the mule represents
a mighty strong combination

Clarence Meyer Shot.

The criminal folly of allowing
boys to have and use fire arms was
fearfully demonstrated on Wednes-
day afternoon. Two boys, aged
about nine years, had been playing
at war during the morning, and the
game was continued until nearly 2
o'clock in the afternoon, when Roy
Heck got hold ofa gun loadei with
large shot and fired the contents into
the body of Clarence, son of John
T. Moyer. The load entered the
month, cutting away the right angle,
all the skin and muscles of the neck
is torn away between the chin and
collar bone, exposing the tongue on
the right side. Half of the inferior
jaw bone is torn away and what re-
mains is fractured. The right fore
arm has all the muscles and arteries
torn away exposing the bone. Drs.
Boyer and Tool were sent for and
did all that medical science could
suggest for the sufferer, and at pres
eht writing the patient is doing as
well as could be expected under the
circumstances. This is u sad acci-
dent, and should be lesson to those
parents who allow their boys to use
guns and pistols.-Couier.

From Falls Church.

CAMP Al0ER, Va, June 8, 1898.
Editor Posr.-My letter must
d necessity be brief as I 70 on
|gaard duty soon. Nothing startling
hes occurred since writing to you
the last time. i was in 70 Wash
ington on Monday and expect to 20
in again soon. The boys are all
getting pretty sore arms as they all
had to be vaOcinated, but they don't
need to gooat to drill unless they
wish to do 80.
Our camp has been greatly i'm
proved since we came. There was
nothing here but briars and stubbles
two feet high when we came.
The Captain and a few of us
were in to Falls church on Sunday
evening. A very heavy shower
ame up and flooded some of the
boys out Of their tents, it was pretty
tough luck, but Pennsy ylvania boys
csn stand good bit before they
complain. 1t is very warm down
here. There are two Y. NJ. G. A..
tents and a Salvation army tent on
the grounds. There are about fifty
sutler tents. We can buy anything
from a pin to a house. l Just had q
good breakfast. Four of us bought
a large fish and had the cook fry it.
1t tasted good.
Captain Stroud is going home to
Milton one of these days to enlist
more men and he is going to 'phcne
to you. Let the boys know there
is chance to enlist. If they do,
they will never feel sorry for it.
Respectfully,
GEO. NJ. CLELAN.

The Army Camp Near wash.
inGton.

The veteran of the Civil War who
now visits Washington cannot help
contrasting the conditions prevail
ing with those which existed thirty
three years ago. Then this city was
the central point of an active cam
paign and fortihcations were going
up on all sides. Today we have
single camp about eight miles from
the city where the secondarmy corps
is getting in shape for service.
There are now some twenty full
regiments from Massachusetts, New
York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania,
Ohio, Michigan, Tennessee, Indiana.
Illinois, Kansas, and Missouri and
more are arriving daily. Few
soldiers are permitted to leave the
camp and the city streets show no
sign of war excepting by an unusual
display of flags. When the Presi-
dent went To review the troops it
was found that ;..any OF the compa-
MES were without uniforms ard that
several regiments were without
guns. Full supplies are being
distributed as rapidly as possible
and in a short time the army will be
fully equipsd.
The camp is located back in the
country about two or three miles,
from the railroad and to convey
supplies in it is necessary make us.
Of some FIVE hundred 4 mule armv
wagons.
In the warehouse at the railroad
station can be Seen tons and tons of
beans, the bags being stacked up
from floor to ceiling, and immense
quantities Of soap, baking powder,
-four, canned meats, etc. Outside
are collected some thirty thousand
bushels Of potatoes.
Drilling is going on almost
continually and late in the AFTER
noon each regiment holds - dress
parade.
The second army corps now cons
sists of two divisions of three bril-
gades each and each brigade has
three regiments. Besides these two
divisions Of infantry, there are in
camp two troops of cavalry and
small body artillery.
The soldiers are eager to SEQ
active service and impatieatly await
orders 10 break camp and go to the
front, but at present the indications
are that the only service they will
see will bsin this csmp-school.

City Council Meets

The city council met last night
in regular session with the follow
ing members present: Chairman
pro tenn Smith, Davis, Living
stOn, McConathy, Pooscr, Car
michael, Fuller and Edwards.
The minutes OF the previous
meeting were read and approved
A petition from many citizens
in the first and fourth wards,
asking that a permit be granted
to Allie MOrdis to sell fresh
meats i'm the fourth ward on Mag
nOlia street, was granted at $4
per month for the permit.
A number of bills were ordered
paid, after faVOra bic reports
from the different committees.
The bill of the Water Com
pany for the quarter ending Sep
tembcr 80 for SlO?3 r5 was or
dcrcd paid, with interest from
October l. This bill was re-
fcrled, pending an investigation
Of the water pressure that was
said to be insufficient for fire pur-
poses, and not according to con
tract.
A request for change Of assess
ment on II. &. Masters proper
ty was referred to the finance
committee.
Reports Of officers were read.
Tax Collector Clyatt asked for
further time in which to collect
the remainder (sonc 5000 of per-
SOual taxes. and asked for advice
as TO the best method Of proceed
ing in the collection Of the said
taxes.
1t was moved and seconded
thai the marshal be instructed to
assist the collector in collecting
the taxes, and that the collector
be empowered to employ dray-
men 20 haul in the goods, and en-,
gage storage room in which tC
store such goods. So there is
some rare trouble anticipated
along this line If the delllQuents
do not pay up.
Adjourned until Tuesday, Nov.
p, to receive petitions for alder
men and mayor and arrange fo]
