for service on the Mexican border.
who got in trouble while in Columbia,
is now at Fort Moultrie, near Charles
ton, awaiting the action of the War
Department on his trial. 1t will be
remembered that Mr.. Jenkins struck
an officer with his gun while on drill.
he was brought to trial while the
boys were on the border. The trial
was held by the officers of an Illinois

the best legal talent it possessed for
the defense of Mr.. Jenkins. So far

terfeldians as one of the most en-
thusiastic boys to join the expedition
and much sogrow is expressed at the
plight in which be now finds himself.
