lU UhMT IUWUIuu LARGE NUMBER OF ERIENpa
 AND RELATIVES AT TRAIN FRl.
 DAY MORNING TO CHEER pE.
 PARTING PATRIOTS.
 The first draft of the second call has been inducted into the national army. Greenlee furnished Az of this contingent, who were inducted into the service by the local exemption board Thursday, and entrained for Camp Funston yesterday morning, where they will be made into soldiers to be sent to the theatre of war to repel the invasion of the brutal Hun. and to check the rapacity of the beast who would violate every prin. ciple of human liberty and virtue.
 It was pathetic scene to witness fond mothers bidding their sons Rood- bye, perhaps for the last time. No one could witness this sad scene without feeling the heart sink to the bottom of his soul, and the thougflt that such sacrifices are necessary that human liberty might survive waa too terrible to contemplate. Many mother in that sad throng, sent her only son to serve his country and humanity that all may be free to en- joy such liberty as is ours.
 Then there are those who openly declare that they lowe the govern ment nothing" The pity of t is that such noble manhood has to bo sacrificed for such worthless individu. als, who to a decent patriotic Ameri- can citizen are more loathsome than the putrid sore of an infectious pes tilence. The time is not long when such as these who disgrace the hu- man family will be beyond the pale of tolerance from decent men and wo- men. God speed the day when all such will be properly labeled that all decent men may know them for their true worth.
 There were about seven hundred present at the Hills Addition stop when the boys entrained. A brass band played patriotic airs while the multitude awaited the coming of the train, and the boys fingered with friends and loved ones till the last moment. But the "a1l aboard" inev- itably came, and the farewells were said and the drafted men were off, leaving fond parents to time alone to soothe their sorrow. -ss .x.s,-..s- E Besides those temporarily residing in other places, who entrained from points where they are living, the fol- lowing are those who said goodbye yesterday morning to all that is near and dear to them:
