Militiamen Get Too Anxious.

There seems to be no lack of inclina-

militia officers of Kansas. Some Of the
officers are getting so anxious over the
matter that 1t has been necessary for the
officers in command to drop firm but
gentle word Of caution against making
fools Of themselves. A Colonel Of one
Of the Kansas regiments got out a cir
cular letter to the Captains Of his regi-
ment instructing them to drill their men
Oftener, have them post up on military
tactics, clean up their guns and make
other arrangements for sudden call to
arms. He went further and asked for a
list Of old soldiers who would enlist and
who, by reason Of their experience, might
be Of special value. This officer has re-
ceived polite note from his superior in
which his zeal was not commended and
In fact he was instructed to stop his war
preparations until somebody directed
him to go ahead.
