Camp Wetherill.

Arriving at the new camp last Mon
day noon, | found it situated in an
old cotton field on the outskirts of
town and twenty miles from tile foot
of the mountains.
The boys were grumbling and kick
ing to beat the band for they were
still on travelling rations and no pay
for last month, consequently there
has been more ''mOOching
done this week by the 4th Mo. than
ever. Turkeys, chickens, ducks, sweet
potatoes and persimmons con 5titute
our side dishes and our "mcss' of
eight has the reputation of being the
best rustlers. We are very well pleas
ed with our winter quarters though
they are not quite complete, mess halls
for each company are being built, the
cook shaclIs are finished and the camp
is beginning to assume comfortable
and almost cheerful look.
Discipline has slackcned several de-
grees and drilling has not yet begun,
still, notwithstanding all privileges
and decrease in actual duty. there Is
more discomfort among the men than
at any time before.
The prospect Of going to Cuba is
never discussed and the mere mention
of garrison duty brings u shower of
epithets upon the speaker.
There are two distinct camps here, in
all about 1000 men, the remainder of
the corps is scattered over this state
and Georgia with hcadquarte 5 at .Au-
gusta.

The real object of pledging
the United States not to annex
Cuba was to give Cuba an in.
terval in which to issue bonds
which would go to par when
Cuba was ultimately annexed,
This was the scheme: The
United States pledges itself to
let Cuba establish its own gov
ernment; 4 war TO free Cuba
from Spain; large bond Issue
by the Cuban government; sd lie
OF bonds at low price, and Il
free distribution of the DO nds
among congressman, aud tho
bond ring" politicians. Final
ly. in year or two it will be
discovered by these bondhold-
ers that the Cubans are incapa-
bic Of self government. when
the United States will annex
Cuba and pay the worthless
bond. There are millions in

NO better known diSlrtectant

Strewn over the skins of birds

A tcaspoonful added to a half
