Merited Criticism.

The Garrett fire department wishes to
thank the editor from Spanish Hollow
for his kind and encouraging article in
regard to their efforts to entertain the
people on the Fourth of Jnly. 1t is use
less to say that we did not make dollar
ont of it, but freely did the work, and
others profited by it.
We, as citizens of Garrett, are also
proud to have man in our town with
such delicate taste OF enjoyment as to
criticise greasy pig and call it ancient
and "barbarism" We would like to
suggest to the editor that it is good
plan not to say anything when he can
not say something good of things in his
town, and we sympathize with the pa
triotic gentleman for not being able to
enjoy himself with all the good news
that we had last Fourth, instead of
thinking how shamefully the pig was
treated

A Letter From The 10th.
San Francisco, Cal, July 3

San Francisco, Cal, July 3, '9S
Dear Friend Vern:-
| received your letter on the list. II
was the first letter to come from home
with definite news of the big food, which
YOU had. am a lucky fellow that way.
Your letter telling of the recruits coming
here was ahead of the other boys letters
so YOU see got the news first and direct
Yesterday, we got plenty of letters verl-
fving your account. 1t must have wash
ed out nearly all the bridges in the
county. 1t must have done a great deal
of damage to the crops, too.
Well, we are getting along real well,
here 1t don't food here, this time OF
the year, but we have good deal OF
foggv weather 1t has been real warm
for several days, but to-day, it is cold
and foggy again. hope it will be cool
tomorrow.
Our regiment is billed for the parade
tomorrow, and | expect we will have a
long, hard march. We are pretty well
seasoned, now, and used to marching.
We have to march good deal through
sand when we drill, and at first we could
hardly stand it, but now we don't mind
it much. Iexpect the parade will be a
grand thing, as there will be about ten
thousand troops in the parade. 1t is
about Az miles from here down to Mar
ket Square, where the parade forms, so
YOU see we will have quite a march be
fore we get back. | can say one thing, at
least, and that is that the Kansas boys
are not going to be outdone by any of
the other regiments, even if it be the 18th
u. S. regulars.
There are troops here from all over the
United States. There is a regiment from
Tennessee; one from Texas; one from
Iowa; one from New York; one from
Montana one from North Dakota; two
the 18th and Sth, from California; one
battalion of the i 4th IT, S. regulars, (the
other battalion of the 18th has gone to
Manila and one battalion is in Alaska.)
Also the 18th U. S. regulars. Besides
these there are the recruits of the 18th
Minnesota the 10th Pennsylvania and
o Nebraska regiments. All are ready and
anxious to make an attack on Spain.
The news from Santiago does not daunt
us in the least. We expected as much
Our new recruits are doing real well.
They think themselves ready to drill
with the veterans" but ] am afraid
that if they had some of our battalion
or regimental double time, they would
beg to be excused. | think that they are
doing better than we did at first.
All of our company are in good shape.
sent your letter along the, line so all
the boys got the news.

FIRE!
Santa Fe Depot Destroyed.

Tuesday night, about 10 minutes OF
9o'clock. the alarm of fire was gwen
and the fire company and men, women
and children were soon running to the
fire, which proved to be the Santa re
depot.
Owing to the delay in getting direct
pressure from the water-works engine
the fire company was unable to do much
t:ward saving the building, and when
they got the pressure, it was too late
the building was destroyed.
The origin of the fire is unknown. The
night operator was at his post, ana
knew nothing of the fire till the freight
room was ali afiame He Immediately
went to work to save what he could
and succeeded in saving the tickets and
most OF the more important records
also, the lettcr-prcss and a few other ar
ticles Men ran to the freight room and
saved lot of trunks and boxes and
and packages of freight and express mat
ter. Several freight cars which were
standing on the side-track were pushed
out of reach of the fire.
In very short time, Agent Coleman
had the section tool house rugged up for
telegraph Office, and was ready to
transact business the next day
A force of men went to work in the
morning and put in short spur on
which some box cars were placed to be
used AS depot until new one is built
and another force gathered up the debris
and loaded it onto fiat cars and hauled
it away.
The old depot has stood there for
thirty years. 1t was a very homely
affair, and, SO far as the city concerned,
it's destruction is no loss. We hope the
Santa Fe company will build new de-
pot that will be credit to the road and
to the city

Now smoke slowly. The little fire con-

Good Friends.

In a cavalry troop there generally
grows up between each horse and his
rider strong bond of sympathy and
friendship. Soldiers in the cavalry serv-
ice are in most cases stationed at remote
western posts, where, far from home
and friends and as a rule unmarried,
they are necessarily very limited in
their social pleasures and amusements
On this account, perhaps, the propensi-
ty for having pets of various kinds is
very strongly developed and increases
the sense of fellowship between the
horses and their riders. Cruelty or in
attention to the wants of their horses is
rare trait among cavalrymen, and
even should this be the case from the
feeling of proprietorship cruelty from
one soldier to the horse of another would
be resented as an injury to the owner
himself.
This comradeship is more in evidence
upon long march or while in the field
engaged upon arduous or dangerous du-
ties. On such occasions, when forage
will jealously guard every grain that
their horses receive, and should the SER
geant through carelessness or prejudice
give trihe more or less to one than the
other it often provokes vast deal Of
grumbling, so closely is the trooper in
terested in the welfare of his horse. -
