Camp Alger is said by the critics who
have visited Tampa, Chickamauga and
the other places to be the best Of its
kind in the country. 1t is located several
hundred feet above the level Of Wash
ington, and ON that account is probably
cooler than most Of the camps further
south. The president, it is said, has de-
cided not to have soldiers drill at points
in Florida during the hot months, and
30 it is likely that during the practice
periods many regiments will be en-
camped here as long as the war lasts.
There was some talk few days ago Of
moving Camp Alger down to Manassas,
near where the battle Of Bull Run was
fought, but the expense of pulling up
stakes and doing the settling over again
is 80 great that probably nothing will
be done. New York Post.

A few days ago oase was in one of
the courts that involved a receiver for
building association. The plaintiff was
highly respected German who knew
what he wanted, but In some manner
the attorney had not taken the steps thar
his client desired. When the plaintin

him at length. During the examination
the old gentleman became excited ana
answered the questions In such a way
that he didn't thoroughly Understand
that he didn't want n receiver, tbat he
sters, and that all he wanted was his
money.
At this point the judge suggested that
the court iuterpreter Re sent for, that the
German might make himself more

that he understood what he wanted. and
that was his money, and II he failed TO
