Perry. July 26-All the companies Of

located for the week. Company g, of
Fort Dodge, was the first to put in an

The rulnor has it that Col. Hum
phrey has decided to make this en-
.campment like real war, announcing
that eight hours steady drill will be
required from each company. This
brings forth groan as it is received.
The boys feel that the hot weather and
the extra LABOR, combined with regular
detail duties, mean something terrible.
Perry is located at the crossing of,
the Milwaukee &: ST. Paul and. the Chi

1t is safe to predict that there will be
more or less sickness before the en-
campment is over. as the sanitary con-

such q place as this. The water in this
city is very impure and by the time 1t.

About 800 men are on the grounds at

are necessary to accommodate all these
people and our grounds cover an area
of about 200 acres-a nice. smooth
