More Than Her Quota Of Fighters.


Adtj. Gen. S. NJ. Fox, of the Kansas
national guard, has received letter
from the war department at WASH
ington giving the number of Kansans
now serving in the volunteer army

the Fortieth infantry, 1874 in the Thir-
ty-second infantry, and 26o in the
Forty-fourth infantry. The rest are

volunteer service in the Philippines.
