WHY MILITIA
HASN'T MOVED

Jackson, Miss, Sept. S0.--Rumor
has it that just one little thing is
keeping the soldiers at Camp Swep
Taylor. 1t is known that Capt.
Pickering has not notified the War
Department that the regiment is
ready to move and it was learned
last night that the regiments lack
Of readiness is due to the failure
Of hat cords to arrive
This seems like a trivial matter.
but then the regiment is not fully
equipped until every man has his
hat cord, and If they are supposed
to be fully equipped then there
can be no censure placed for orders
not having gone to the War Depart
ment notifying them Of Mississip-
pts readiness.
