 AND
 MALARIA are overcome by THE BITTERS

The Mosquitoes and the Parson Are
 Now With Them.

.1.-tSpecial correspondence Of The l Republican.)-The park presented this morning the appearance of tented town, .white-winged city. Friday af- ternOon the men were at work clear ing ground and preparing it for tents. Later all of the troops were busily en- gagged in putting up dog tents and re- moving their things from the exposi- tion building to their new quarters. These tents are in two pieces buttoned together. Two persons are assigned to each tent; and the tents of each troop are arranged in two rows facing each other, thus making an avenue or street within the lines of each troop. | The tents are in dimension 6x5 feet and 31s feet high, without side walls It is an amusing sight to see six-foot | fellow trying to sleep in a ive-foot tent Many of the boys awoke this morning with their feet out at one side and their heads sticking out the other. One great source of annoyance is the mosquito. He is not so proverbial as the muscoka or the Jersey coast mo- sQuito but is quite as much in evi dence. Some of the men could not be identified this morning because of numerous mosquito bites. Some of the men declared that the little things hunted them during the night with lanterns. Tonight nearly every one is provided with mosquito bar, not for or nament, but for service.
