The first 5G0 men from Funston assigned to the Arizona regiment were from New Mexico, but the second group which came in Tuesday, was from Ari zona, two former Phoenix boys, Jack Abbott and Sterling Price, being among those present. Every man who came from Kansas was glad to get out of the extreme cold of that climate. Avery Corpstein, Pat Butler and several other well known Phoenicians are expected in a few days.
 The hand Of the 15Sth, which had been pleasing the borcer folk for so many months, created a very favor- able impression in Camp Kearney. All the outfits have bands, but by popular vote, there is only one real band ill the camp, and that is in Block "E'' where the Arizona boys are located.

Part of the com pany baggage was unloaded, and hot meal was served in a short time, but after that, the fog from the Pacific got in it's work. tv,ryone was sleep ing on the ground and wishing he had carried more blankets instead of pack ing All night long stiff and weary forms were t0 be seen crawling off the ground to don more clothes and still more clothes. By morning everyone had on everything he possessed and some things which he did not possess but appropriated.
 The next day was spent in unloading the two trains and getting camp in shape. About night, word came down the company streets that the camp ing place was only temporary, and that another move would have to be made One large prolonged grOan went from one end of the outfit to the other ending in a firm WIAn that Naco had never been left behind.
 It was several days though before the move was made, and at last the 15Sth is in it's permanent quarters and ready to do business either with the Kaiser or anyone he may designate for the job.

 The first sensation was created by the regiment when it arrived at Camp Kearney, along about dusk two days out of Naco.
