did horse while at camp Eaton. The ami.
NAL is beauty.
Gen. Irish had the whole brigade as
sembled in front of headquarters Thursday
morning and addressed the men upon their
conduct in camp. He said that about 90
per cent of the men came into camp to dc
duty and honor the state, but 1t seemed a
few of them cared only to get drunk. II
that was so. he wished to know it at once,
for there were hundred good and true men
who were anxious to take their places, and
drunkenness would not be tolerated. In
conclusion, he complimented the brigade
upon their fine work so far and wanted then
to continue, and expected they would do So
The generals lecture was called forth by
the fact that a number of the boys dis
graced themselves at Brighton the nigh
before.

talions and companies now in camp held {
meeting Wednesday and it was decided tha
