II. Simpson. all OF company ID, and Ser.
geant Reagan and Private Hammnck,
company b. are also among the recent
discharges. None OF these men receive the
extra months pay that Is coming to those
who VIII be mustered out. The recent
discharges. which have followed fast on
the heels OF many others, leave company y
with four privates for duty. Congressman
Cooper has about succeeded In getting
nj! OF that company out of tho service, OK
cept It's officers. and one of them resigned
This, however, Is the only company In
the regiment the enlisted strength of
which IL below the minimum. while many
OF the others, notably companies 4, III, q,
i, and l., are but little below the
maximum.
II Is doubtful IL any other regiment OF
volunteers is so little affected In tho mat
ter OF discipline and duty by muster out
orders as la this one. Major Taylor the
officer who inspects quarters, remarked
this evening that It looked like the boys
are trying to see how good they can be
now that their time is nearly up. for their
quarters this morning we're in practically
perfect condition, better than he had ever
seen them before There Is nothing APP
proximnting disorder; and drill. fatigue
and duty proceed ne rceularly and unin
terrnptedly "a usual. Tic Third will be
the best regiment In tho volunteer service
as long as there Is one man In 1t,
Tho examining surgeon will find no d.
tcroration IN tho physical condition of the
men; mos; OF them never looked better
ior were they In better health before in
their lives Garrison duty may he mouoio-
nous and tiresome, but II is certainly not
unhealthy.
The commanding officer has announced
that pending muster out no more FUR
loughs will he granted, but mono of those
absent on furlough Will be called in TO tho
most until their furloughs have expired
