REGULARS MAY Go
INTO CAMP HERE
A DETACHMENT FROM REGULAR
ARMY MAY BIyOUAC AT
CAMP NOEL WITH THE
NATIONAL GUARD.
Adjutant General Fridge Requested
War Department 10 Send Bat
talon, and Request May
Perhaps be Granted.

1t is more than likely that a de-
tachment of soldiers from the reg
ular army will go into camp here
with members of the Mississippi Ma
tional Guard. The governor, through
the adjutant generals department,
made a request for battalion of
regulars, and a telegram indicating
that the request viii be granted has
been received from Lieutenant Colo
mel Weaver, chief of the military
division of the war department.
In the event that Col. Weaver de-
cides to send a detachment Of reg
ulars to Columbus, the number of
men in camp will be nearly twice as
as large as last year. There were
only about twelve hundred soldiers
in camp last year, and as several ad-
ditionaI companies have been mus
tered into service during the past
twelve months there will be about
sixteen hundred members of the State
National Guard present at the COM
ing encampment. Gen. Fridge re-
quested Col. Weaver to send a full
battalion of five hundred men, and
in the event that the request is
granted, which seems very likely,
there will be twenty one hundred
men present. In addition TO swelling
the attendance at the encampment,
the presence of the regulars will be
of incaIculable benefit to the citizen
soldiers. They will not only receive
instruction from the officers accom-
panying the troops, but will be af-
forded an opportunity to watch the
regulars drill and go through the
routine of camp life, thus becoming
familiar with the customs and Tegu-
lations of Uncle Sans army. The
officers of the Mississippi National
Guard are evincing a great deal of
interest in the coming encampment,
and, together with the local commit
tee, are working to make it the most
event in the history of
the organization.
Adjutant General Fridge is ex-
pected to arrive in the city today, /
and will at once begin the work of !,
the camp for the reception /
Of the soldiers. As has already been I
stated in The Dispatch, great many /
of various character will be 4
needed for the camp, and elsewhere !.
IN this issue will be found an adver-
.isement in which the adjutant gen
eral invites bids on these supplies.
Fresh beef, bread, Irish potatoes, to-
natoes, onions, hay and ice are
among the articles wanted, and some
If these things can be furnished by
he farmers of the surrounding coun-
ry. There is no reason why all the
supplies for the camp should not be
by local men, and those
Who desire to furnish supplies are
.dvised to submit bids at once. The
advertisement referred to above gives
list of what is wanted, and any fur
her information will be cheerfully
.iven by Gen. Fridge. He viii, as
tated above, arrive in Colum bus to-
ay, and all communications should
e addressed to him here
New uniforms and new rifles have
ecently been issued to the different
composing the National
iuard of the State, and the soldiers
yiIl make a better showing al the
ncampment than ever before.

OLD RAILROAD WATcHMAN
 FOUND DEAD AT YSLETA

DOUGLAS, Jan. 29.-(Special.-
 Walter w. Wuerschmidt. well known in Douglas as the night wa5chman and special police at the station and rail road yards and, the participant in a number of encountsTs with rought GUS toners during his stay here, was found dead in his room at Ysleta Saturday, where Ge has been serving as deputy sheriff.
 Wuerschmidt was sent to Douglas last winter by the Fl Paso & South western to put a step to box car burg laries and promiseuous stealing in the yards. He soon won reputation for being quick man with gun and pos sessed of an abundance of nerve. He accomplished what he was sent here to do and later was recalled by the company.
 Regarding his death last Saturday at his home in Ysleta, the Fl Paso paper says that when members of the family went to call him to breakfast, his lifeless body was discovered lying on the floor by his bed A large amount of blood upon the floor told the story Of a hemorrhage from the lungs, which had occurred while he was alone and strangled him to death before he could cry out for help.
 MT. Wuerschmidt was apparently in his usual health Friday and was out riding horseback during the day. He retired Friday night without complaint and no call from him was heard dur ing the night
 Deceased worked at various places as watchman for. the Fl Paso & Southwestern until he accepted the deputy sheriff's commission several months ago. He was a member of the posse which went out on the Sunset limited last week when steps were be- ing taken to prevent an anticipated at tempt to hold up and rob that train.
