Night in Armories, Four national guard armories in middle and western North Dakota were occupied last night by expect- ant, bronzed, veteran state troops, who, with less than six weeks’ respite after their return from the Mexican border, are again called into their country’s service ‘for a campaign which may prove even more arduous The t of mobilizing is naturally progressing slowly. Many of the guardsmen enlisted in the Bismarck, Mandan, Jamestown and tkinson country, came originally from neigh. boring towns, or since their return trom the border have found employ- ment elsewhere. To notify these men time to reach their company base is not a matter of a few hours, but may require several days. Coming to Ft. Lincoin, Adjutant General Tharalson wired from Chicago, en route home yester- day afternoon, instructions for Major Dana Wright of Jamestown, in com- mand of the Second bat jon, to re- port for duty at Fort Lincoln, and for Companies A and F of Bismarck and Mandan, respectively, to concentrate ther cas soon mobilization. is com- pleted.

E Fine Body of Men. Little enthusiasm was apparent on the part .of troops reporting for ser- vice today. They had more the air of ‘well-seasoned regulars, for whom the situation no longer held any nov- elty, and who saw nothing ahead but a long grind and hard work. There was no sign of shirking, however; the boys came willingly; if not. gladly, and better-trained citizen soldiers never have been at the disposal of the state’ and nation, in the opinion of headquarters.
