JOHNNY L0SETH WRITES
FROM DOUGLAS, ARIZONA.
The Clearwater Republican lately
received short communication
from Johnny o. Loseth, Commissary
Seargeant First L. s Cavalry. Doug
las Arizona.
Johnny enclosed in his letter a
copy of The Dragoon," weekly
paper that is published in the inter
est of the First Cavalry. also quite
number of clippings concerning
the early history of this famous
regiment
He also sent photographs of him
self mounted on docile Mexican
burro and an unusually interesting
snapshot of himself astride the
back of plunging cavalry horse.
Judging from the perpendicular
posture of his mount we are con-
vinced that Johnny is some equis-
trian.
| He aalso enclosed snapshots OF
four Mexican murderers strung to
telephone poles, and photographs
of two victims of these bloodthirs-
ty greasers.
| Following is a sporting item from
the columns of the Dragon:
