 Colonel F.. H. Graves. commanding the 2nd, who hed returned from an inspec- ton trip to Selma left yesterday morn ing for his home in Eufaula. He was highly pleased with the selected camp ground and with the arrangements. which the Selma committee and. the street rail way officials of Selma had made for the End.
 "The camp site" he said, is perfect. If we are fortunate, enough to have a week of dry weather in Selma, the camp of the and will be one of the most sue cessful ever held by an Alabama regi- ment. The tents will be spread in a grove at Elkdale Park. shady and well wooded It will be cool and altogether pleasant for the officers and men of the regiment"
 'The drill ground is all that could be desired. It Is a great grass covered lawn large enough for the evolutions of brigade The drill ground is closely ad- jacent to the camp and 1t is large enough for all possible use. The conditions as l saw them could hardly be improved
 'tThe local committee and the officials of the street car company have more than kept their promises to the regiment. The mess hall. the kitchen, the shower baths and the other buildings are well built and all are excellently constructed.
