TRAIN Of CATTLE.
Wrecked Last Night at Seven
O'clock Near Argonia.
KILLED NEARLY 2OOCATTLE
Panhandle Passenger Three
Hours Late at Wichita.

The Panhandle passenger, which is due
to arrive in Wichita at 1880 D. m, was
three hours late last night on account of
the wreck of a cattle train on the South
ern Kansas, at Argonia, about o'clock
last evening The cattle train was heavily

a switch open and the train ran right off

there were fourteen cars in the train,

Biggs Talks Back to the Reg

ALL WELL AND HOMESICK

Yesterday morning seventy of Wichita
boys. with the Forty-fourth regiment of
volunteers. left Fort Leavenworth for San
Francisco, where the regiment Will en-
bark net week for the Philippines. There
were three trains of fourteen coaches
each. The first battalion, under com
mand of Major Cole. left at $780, the sec
ond. under Major Mccoy. at II O'Clock.
and the third at o'clock, all over the
Union Pacific
A letter from Clarence Benton talks
of the Wichita boys and their camp life:
Leavenworth, Kan, Oct. a
To the Editor Of the Eagle:
Well, we have been in camp here drill
ing for more than four weeks, but we
leave tomorrow for San Francisco and we
are all glad of it. Drilling is hard work
and the boys all, except those who were
born with natural love for military
work, got tired of it
It's always the same Some Of the wich
tia boys who left pleasant homes for the
war are homesick, but I wouldn't tell
you their names for the world. Nobody
but the homesick ones know anything
about it-eXcept me- They'll get over
that soon. The Wichita crowd is nearly
all together and we can talk if we can't
get back home. There isn't a man who
would go back home if he could, but any
body gets homesick once in awhile
We have to put in eight hours 4 cay
drilling and two or three hours arrang-
ing uniforms and polishing guns and fix
ing up camp surroundings Biggs was
reprimanded yesterday for falling to get
a movement correctly in the drill. He
laughed and told the major that he could
kill four Fflipinos while he was making
that movement. The Wichita boys have
been complimented by Colonel Wheeler
two or three times for their good work.
Everybody Is sorry that Lieutenant
ingalls, is not to go along. He did more
than anybody else in the regiment to get
the regiment completed and ready to go.
When he came around and told us good
bye he tried to be jolly but his voice was
not steady. But he took it better than
the men. His hearing is the cause and he
seemed to get worse after coming here.
The Wichita boys are all well ana fat
and will be glad when we get to where
We can fight.
