RECRUITING oFFIcE CLOSED.

The recruiting office in charge OF Lieu.
tenant Dean Tompklns, which has been
open on Market street for three weeks,
closed last night and the officers have re-
turned to San Antonio. Men were wanted
for the Thirty third regiment, Colonel
Luther A. Hare in command, which is to
be sent to the Philippines as soon as the
required number of recruits are secured.
During the time the station was open
here lis men applied for enlistment. or
this number seventy were accepted. Lieu
tenant Tompkins had hoped to secure
fun company here, but the physical ex-
animation is quite rigid and great mauy
were rejected. The regiment is recruiting
to the full war strength OF 1o5 men to the
company, and as the war fever is not so
noticeable as it was a year ago. it is diff
ficult to get good men.
AS fast as enlisted the recruits were
sent to San Antonio where the regiment
Is mobilizing. One man deserted after he
had taken the oath and enlisted. There
is reward offered for him.

These chicks will be well grown when

warm house during the winter they
will be ready to begin laying In the

Chicks that are late hatched escape
many of the pcrils Of early summer
and II Is not rare thing for every one
Of brood to grow up TO full size. This
year there are many complaints about

of that kind, both in the incubators and
