border even before September. The
rapid improvement is amazing, and
the brigade commander is known tic
believe that the state will rejoice
when the brigade is passed upon at the
border. The delay will not then be
regretted, since In reality no time /.

U. 8. A. 80 mules agd rs horses are
on the way for use as teams and fol
officers of the brigade.
General Young will get the consent
of the county supervisors for policing
half mile beyond the limits of the
whole camp. The medicos will at once
go to work exterEinating mosquitoes

necessary sanitation.

known that recruits can be promised

new recruiting outfit.
