 "A number of officers have appealed to me to have the line withdrawn and take up strong position farther back and ex- pect they will appeal to you I have posi- lively discountenanced this, as it would cost us much prestige.

If we can get through tomorrow all right, we can make our breastworks very strong the next night. You can hardly realize the exhausted con- dition of the troops. The Third and Sixth cavalry and other troops were up marching and halted on the road all last night and have fought twelve hours today, and those that are on the line will be digging trenches tonight.

 Yours truly, MRS. c. B. BOLSER. One of the largest retail druggists in the city, whose business enables him to feel the public pulse in the matter of sickness and its cure, says, Women are peculiarly in need of a pleasant tonic. They suffer from exhaustion, and in Paines celery compound they find instant relief. Many families now use it, and many wives give it to their husbands when they return home at night worn out from business cares. It never fails to invigorate both the mind and the body, and is a preparation that meets common want for a safe and bene- ficial tonic"
 Panes celery compound is just the reme- dy that suits the condition of women run down in health, with unstrung nerves, wasted bodies, and thin, vitiated blood.

VOLUNTEER ENGINEERS.
Major Davis at Morris Hotel Recruiting
 for His Regiment.

Major IT. C. Davis of the Third United States volunteer engineers Is still in the city recruiting for this regiment. He has his headouarte-s at the Morris hotel and VIII remain here until this afternoon
 Men enlisted for this regiment are sent direct to Jefferson barracks. New Orleans There they are rated as first and second class privates according to their personal qualifications.
 When the company commanders have be- come personally acquainted with the men and can form a proper estimate of their fitness, the non-commisisoned officers are selected from among them and appointeo by the colonel of the regiment
 The commissioned officers of the regiment have already been appointed by President Mckinley, upon recommendation or board of examiners, composed of officers or inc engineer corps of the regular. army, but in case of a vacancy private or non- commissioned officer may secure a commis- sion if he possesses the necessary qualifi- cations.
 Tn general, it may be stated that men are not accepted to do any particular class of work. All are enlisted as soldiers. and in addition to engineering work, in which they are instructed, they are drilled as in- fantry; when necessary. they take their position in the line and fight. Usually their work consists of building pontoons, wagon and railroad bridges, rail and wagon roads, etc., for the movement of men and sup plies, Notifications, lines of entrenchments and breastworks mining harbors, -construc- tion of telegraph and telephone lines, sur veys of country to develop it's topography, etc. It will be seen. therefore, that the following class of men are wanted:
 Machinists, steam engineers, blacksmiths, carpenters, plumbers, telegraphers. drafts men, photographers, railroad men, triggers, boatmen and those skilled in the use of ex- plosives.
