Facts Are Misrepresented.

Thousands OF letters have been sent
from Camp Llano recently. Some OF
them contain the most imaginative
bits of information that could be
thought Of describing conditions OF
the camp as deplorable, when as a
matter of fact they are excellent.
The climate Is unsurpassed, the
nights delightful and cool. In the
middle Of the day the sun Is very hot,
but there blows almost constantly a
cooling breeze and in the shade and
out Of the sun 1t is as comfortable as
one could wish.
There are some hardships to be
sure, as the men drill four hours a
day, and those who have violated
some rules of the camp find police
duty irksome and inconvenient.
Water Is now running through the
camp in large mains and plenty of
drinking water can be had. II is al.

Not Enthusiastic Over Report.

Officers of the two Nebraska regi
ments on the border are not particu
larly enthusiastic over the report
from Washington that all college men
VINO want to return TO school in the
fall will be released from the army.
1t is also reported that General
Hugh Scott. aide to General Bliss,
chief of staff, favors the release of all
men who have tired of military life
and who are anxious to get out Of the
army. This also does not appeal to
the Nebraska officers.
The Fourth regiment will lose a
large number of men under the de.
pendents provisions. Yet there will
be lot of men who hope to get out
Of the army on this point and who are
going to be disappointed. Discharges
will be given only to those who have
mothers. wives or families dependent
upon them, and who produce ample
proof of this.

FIRST PRACTICE MARCH.
Boys on tho Border Take Eight Mile


The second battalion OF the Fifth
regiment now in camp on the border,
had its first practice march last week.
Notification of the tramp was given
before taps, so on the morning of the
march the troops put on new and
seamless socks, and took to the road
leading from camp. Two miles TO the
south to the lake, two more miles
in an easterly direction, two miles
north and back into camp after an
eight mile march, was the mornings
program.
The men enjoyed the interesting
scenery along the line of march, many
CT them glimpsing for the first time

crs at work.
The daily drills and short morning
marches are rapidly bringing the men
into condition to undergo the longer
marches that are TO come. Ability to
stand full days march with com.
plctc equipment is what the officers
and men are striving for.
The prevailing spirit to learn to be
a good soldier as quickly as possible,
so evident before leaving Nebraska,
is still felt by the men.
