grace and execution of difficult
Pastures. This well trained dog act
is supreme in its class.

Saturday, and the men are required
to appear at the office of the local

Complying with the order received
Rhinow, the local board this morning
selected the thirty men who will en-
train on the Northern Pacific next

ders give the following instructions
The entrainment of your entire
quota Is all upon one date. In case
one or two men arrive late, they will
be sent over the same route as the
quota was sent and the matter OF
their hardness reported to this ONCE
Everything in the way of comforts
for these men has been provided. Due
to the fact that such large numbers
of men are being moved at one time
II is absolutely impossible to arrange
for sleeping cars for these men and
in no case will this be permitted.
Experienced passenger men have
been procured by this Office to act as
escorts on each train going to Des
Moines. These escorts are at the
service of the drafted men, and they
will do everything in their power to
look after their comfort.
This morning notices were mailed
to the following men directing them
