Being Done 10 This City.

Since recent issuing OF orders for the
recruiting of men for the volunteer
regiments quite a large number of very
desirable men have applied for enlist
ment at the North Main street office.

created a strong desire among the
young men OF the country TO see SER
vice in the Philippines, and that the
class OF men that nave been long
sought after are now enlisting. 1t is
very probable that the assurance that
these new regiments Will be sent to the
islands as soon as the rainy season has
passed is having a strong influence in
the right direction. 4

will command the Twenty sixth United
States Volunteer regiment, visited the
local recruiting station and neid long
consultation with Capt. Graham, ana
when he left he expressed himself as
very much pleased with the work that

with the recruits whom he has already
sent forward. With one exception all
of the men enlisted yesterday were en-
rolled in the Twenty-sixth United
States volunteers. Fred. Litturno, New
