lowing night. When these advices left
1loilo Gen. Rios was expecting rein
fCrcements and field guns, and the plan

entrance. The foreign residents were
greatly alarmed, and all merchantmen

operate. Meanwhile the Spanish au-
thorities have been advised that the
Tulisanos troops are looting, in dis
obedience to orders, and cannot be re-
strained.

With Blood in Their Eye.

Lieutenant Hubbard of the Augusta
recruiting office is becoming frightened.
for there We're no less than three people
who called at the office, Tuesday, With
blood in their eye looking for the Off
Ger who sent their sons to Chicka-
mauga. The first caller was woman
from the country who, calling in rela-
ton to her son, who went with the
first batch of recruits and claimed that
he was under age. Now Lieutenant
Hubbard had the statement that the
fellow was old enough and his mothers
signature.
The others We're people who did not
want their sons to go as they were
their only support. The lieutenant is
very sorry over the turn that matters
have taken as it is unpleasant but
still no blame can be attached to him
as the papers were perfectly regular.
Four recruits presented themselves
for examination, but as the examining
surgeon was away they cannot be
examined until today.

An Augusta papa was greatly sur
prised, the other day. by his young
hopeful, and as the joke was on him.
the said hopeful got away without a
chastisemcnt Of any sort.
The boy had been away from home
until long past the dinner hour, when
he had been sent on an errand that
should not have taken but a few mo-
ments. Naturally the mother got
anxious, and the father got mad.
The family waited dinner. and whea
the young man appeared he was met az
the door by the two parents VINO DC
manded an explanation. The one ne
made was not of the sort that cooled
the fathers wrath.

claimed the father, Il will show you
whether ! can or not. Just you come
out to the shed with me"
When once out there he proceeded II

and in under the arms in a manner
that he thought could never be maze
stronger. and then he was tied to a
beam. He started for the house say

There are many new men. and vast

All did much drilling in squads. as
the men felt the heat but little more
when moving about, than when laying
about the camp. After drill in the
afternoon, the men Went to 4 nearby

The guards did not try to enforce a
very great amount of harshness, and

pleased, unless they got Immediately
in the way of the guards.
One guard, through his carclessness,
got himself into trouble, Monday night,
