Many more will be laid away there, because the horses are less abie thun the men to atand the climate. The detail froin the Seventy-firet which buried the iret horae was in charge of @ non- commissioned officer who was recent- ly & publio accountant in New York. In respect of kitchens the Seventy- firet has it all over the rest of the camp. The regimont has three trav- Rt elling kitchens ou wheels, the inven- tion of Capt. True of the machine wun company. Each kitchen ts manned by a chef, two assistants, all expert cooks, and three service men. With the ald of firoless cookers, meals prepared hours in advance are served steaming to all companies, Thegother regiments are equipped with the old- fashioned ovens, sunk in the ground, which require the services of double the number of cook A8 AID IN UNO!

Because of tho clearing of hun- dreds of acres of land in and adjoin- ligands, acorplons, rat- rantulas have been disturbed and nt travelling, and many have sought to lodge with the soldiers, Scores of men have been bitten by scorpions, but the bite ts not more poisonous than the sting of & hornet. Licut. Col, Beekman of the Seven- ty-firat inadvertently put on a scor- pion with his trousers yesterday morning and was twice bitten In the leg before he could diyest himself of his garment. He wasn't very long about it, either, As soon as the camp ts well cleared thero need be no more fear of scor- jonas, tarantulas and snakes, except lor such as take refuge under the elevated board floors the officers of the Beventy-first and Seventh are putting in their tents, and experl- enced campaigners use a canvas floor in thelr tents or spread their blan- kets on the bare ground, which in this chmate is hard as:atone and smooth as the surface of a table, Only one report of a tarantula bite has been made, The result was not serious, Taking the weather conditions into consideration, the health of the New Yorkers has been wonderful, Of all the men prostrated in the camp of the Twelfth on Wednesday, not one remained In the hospital yesterday, invalids were kept in their i will be broken to the sun A member of the Firat t to the base hospital suffering from inotp- He ts in no serious jent pneumonia, danger, Camp leaves are restricted and the ntry regulations are ae etrict as they might be tn war times.

Dante] Appleton, who earned a national reputation as Colonel of tho Seventh Regiment, President Wilson expressed great satisfaction in Washington when Senator Wadsworth called at the White House and told him of Gov, Whitman's plan to replace the di- vision sent to the border. Army of- ficers also were delighted with the news, and tt is predicted that the Governors of other large States will within the next few days follow the example of Gov, Whitman, The fact that the President and Becretary of War have approved Gov, Whitman's plan is believed to insure the necessary equipment from the Government, The organization of a division of troopa will require the establishment of a headquarters with a full staff of officers in all de- partments.
