It was a glorious morning and the com mands of Captains Stockham and Hodgins were in excellent spirits. Like high-strung horses champing at the bit, these young soldiers, all decked out in their spick and span military garbs, were impatient to be off to the scene of the annual encampment where they might be enabled to compete with their fellows and show off to admir- ing spectators how thoroughly famillar they are with military tactics, drills, | maneuvers and evolutions. They were aglow with the excitement of the occasion and they handled themselves like veterans, the brief drill in the early morning serv- ing as an invigorating tonic. Arriving at the depot all bands turned in | and with the celerity and precision of u well trained military body unloaded the commis- sary stores from a big van that had haulel them to the station and reloaded them into & baggage car. After this work was com- pleted the order of “‘break ranks” was given and the young soldiers sauntered about the depot for a few moments. Many of them were favored by the presence of friends and relatives who had gone to the depot to bid them adicu, and there were many fair young | women, charming in thelr airy summer gowns, who had gathered at the station evi- tently with the avowed intention of monopo- lizing the time of several of their favored knights before the train should carry them away to the scencs of new, and probably brief, conquests. AL 7:10 the train left the station, carrying | the young guardsmen away to be gone until | Saturday night. It was a joyful parting, | though, between those light-hearted young | soldiers and the ones left bebind, and what- | ever of regret there may have been was held in abeyance untl after the outburst of en- tieux had subsided.

When such action will be taken is not known by the officials fnter ested, according to thelr own statemeuts. FRUITKFUL FIELDS IN NORTHWEST. Business in Go in Missouri Pacific Territory. W. C.
