RALPH PATTERSON
OFF FOR MANILA.
His Regiment Fully Recruited
and Equipped in FIVE Weeks.

-Four weeks ago Ralph Patter-
son, son of Thomas Patterson of
this place, enlisted in the United
States Army service and was
sent at once to Jefferson Bar
racks, Missouri. He was placed
in company NJ, Thirty-eighth L.
S. infantry, and has been drilling
eight or nine hours Il day since.
Ralph says he likes soldier life
very much, and the vigorous drill
ing that he gets every day only
serves to give him an appetite.
A very important part of a
young soldiers education is that
of learning to shoot with precis-
ion; hence daily practice in tar
get shooting. What most of all
.astonished the world in our late
Cuban war was the skill with
which our troops could use fire
arms. Ralph says his regiment
was first drilled on target prac-
tice of 100 yards range, then 200,
300 and so on. He says he PUNK
ed the bullseye five times in sue
.cession the other day at 500
yards. If Ralph ever gets his
eye on Aguinaldo it will be all
day with him-not with Ralph
with the Heathen.
Last Thursday they had orders
to break camp and leave for San
Francisco, where transports are
in waiting to carry them direct
to the seat of action in the Philip
pines.
The Thirty eighth is the ban
.ner regiment of the Spanish
American and PHILIPPINE wars so
far as quickness in organization
and excellence of behavior are
concerned. The organization con
tanned total of only thirty five
men ON August 80. On Septem-
Der 90, less than month after
wards every company had it's full
strength and the regiment was
complete.
From newspaper clipping we
get the following:
"In every way the regiment
has been surprise to me-" re-
marked Colonel Anderson. "The
boys are sincere, loyal and hard
working, and up to date there
has been no hitch of any sort be.

The regiment is now in fine
condition thoroughly armed with
the latest improved Kreg- Jorgen-
sen rifles, equipped and uniform
ed, and is in an excellent state of
discipline. 1t has u distinguish
ed officer of the regular army at
its head. To Colonel Anderson 's
experience is due the fact that
the regiment has been made
ready for active service in sc
short time. Two of the Majors
of the Thirty eighth are regular
army officers Colonel Anderson
is a typical soldier of the Ameri
can army, tall, powerful and pos
sessed of much executive ability.
He graduated from the West
Point Military Academy in 1867
and two years later was assigned
to the Sixth Cavalry as a Second
Lieutenant. He served through
various Indian campaigns in the
Southwest and rose to the rank
of Major During the Spanish
War he was detained at Tampa
Fla, and did not participate il
the Santiago campaign, but wher
the provisional regiments were
organized he was given colonel

Pathetic Plea OF the Bibulous Head of
the House.
One OF the Bohemian citizens o: the
town went home the other night after
having donned a pair Of skates that
would have slid him over an Arizona
desert with the mercury bubbling out
of the top of the thermometer. He had
no recollection CT how he got home.
and even the next morning he was not
certain whether he was on storm
tossed Atlantic liner or making leap
from n balloon minus n parachute. He
went down to the breakfast table with
enough wet towels wrapped around his
head to make a turban for the mahdi.
His wife met him with reproaches in
her eyes, but she did not scold him.
She wanted to inform him of his con-
duet the night before, however.
My DEAR" she said, "did you know
that you came very near killing us all
when you went to bed last night?"
Nope" said her husband, thickly
as ne felt his hot forehead.
well, you did. You knocked over
the baby's cradle. Then you blew out
the gas and we were nearly asphyxia'
ted. What do you think of that?"
Her husband is usually a resource
ful man, but the fumes of many cock
tails taken the night before somewhat
clouded his intellect. He made
grand brace and tried to look pathetic
"Mlove," he said, as a ray of inspi
| ration burst through his foggy brain
| wasn't / here to die with you?

supply hydraulic cement at 50 cents
per sack in cloth, and 90 cents in pa
per sacks. The recommendation of
the engineer was adopted and the

various waterworks extensions re-
ferred to the committee, showing per-
centage on pipe investments of from
