ENLISTED MEN Of FORT BLISS TENDER
FAREWELL SMOKER To COL. HUSTON

Packing is in progress at Fort Bliss
and the soldiers are getting ready to
leave for their Philippine station.
Farewell smokers. dances and parties
are the order The officers recently
gave their farewell hop and were en-
tertained in turn by a similar affair by
the members of the Country club.
Friday and Saturday the enlisted
men had their farewell ceremonies. The
enlisted men gave their farewell dance
at the Post hall on Friday night. The
program of Is dances was enjoyed by
about 100 couples The entire regimen
tai band furnished the music.
Farewell to Col. Huston.
The members of Camp Edward
Baker" army of the Philippines, en-
loved themselves at q smoker at Fort
Bliss Post hall on Saturday night. The
Vets of this order have a reputation
of knowing how to enjoy themselves
and how to entertain their friends, and
the refreshment committee, under the
nanagement of color sergeant Ehlers
and sergeant Hannah. outdid themselves
on this occasion. Needless TO say that
smokes were not the only things in
dulged in.
Col. Huston, the commanding Off
GER and Capt. Graham, the regimental
adjutant, were present for about an
hour. The colonel, who is a charter
member of the order, and is soon to
retire from the service, was agreeably
surprised upon being presented with
gold emblem of the order, the presenta-
ton speech being made by sergeant
Newhauser, the camp commander.
In his speech of acceptance the col
onel briefly outlined the service of the
18th infantry in Puerto Rico, the Phil
ippine islands and in the early days in
the states when the regiment was sta
toned in the then unsettled northwest
He recalled several incidents during
that service, the recollection of which
seemed to deeply affect the old fighter
Capt Graham then spoke a few appro-
pirate words, after which the colonel
shook hands with all present and 1t
was plainly evident that the socalled
smoker" was in reality a farewell re-
ception given by the enlisted men to
their retiring commanding officer. The
regimental band. under the leadership
of Prof. Bierman, furnished the music
for the occasion.

COL. HUSTON MAY

It is more than propaDle that new
force will have to be reckoned with IN
future politics in Ell Paso-
About a year ago Col. ]. F. Huston,
commanding the 18th infantry at Fort
Bliss. made the announcement that he
would be a candidate for mayor OF FL
Paso when he retired. This statement
has not yet been denied by the colonel.
and the fact that he has announced his
intention of making Ell Paso his home.

political ambitions.
Col. Huston will not accompany his
regiment to the Philippines. but VIII

Sweeney will resign from the position
he now holds some time this spring, and
with Sweeney out of the race, COL

since taking office.
At present no other name is men
toned with any degree of certainty in
connection with the mayoralty, and. as
Col. Huston has friends by the hundred
in FL Raso, and is known as man OF
executive ability, tact and the courage
