their rest to the fullest extent at night.
The entrance of a body of recruits
Into the camp is regarded as a signal
for a general turnout everyone being
anxious to see if any of their friends
have "signed up" with the recruiting
officers who are established in all of
the larger cities of the state
Itei-rulU VrrUe Dnllj.
On the arrival of the recruits they
are marched to regimental headquarters
and ftntirnnd to rllfferont enmnftniefl of
t the regiment and taken tn the Quarter
master to be measured for clothing.
Over 50 recruits arrived 'Vednesdj
afternoon about IS Thursday and more
are anticipated within the next few
days until the regiment is brought up
to war strength or considerably over
1000 men.
Two cooks are assigned to each com-
pany and it is their duty to provide
three meals a day for the hungry troop-
ers. A large fire is kept burning con-
tinually by each company to incinerate
all uneaten food in order to keep the
flies away.
Sanitary Condltlonn Cond.
In brief the sanitary conditions of
the camp are excellently arranged each
company having an Independent water
line. Small ditches have been dug to
carr off the water -n hile ail tin cans
and any matter that would contribute
to unhealthiness. la thrown into the
big fire to be burned as strict orders
have been issued by Gen. Herring re
garding the sanitary regulations which
are earnestly lived up to by every mem
ber of tne guard.
Drills are regularly held and it is not
an unusual sight to see guards or whole
companies out going through the man-
ual of arms under the supervision of
their officers. No regimental drills have
been held as yet according to Col. Ab-
bott although it will be a matter of
but a short time until they are Inau-
gurated. The battery as well as the in-
fantry drills daily although the ar-
tillerymen are handicapped at present
by the lack of animals to haul the
heavy guns.
Homes for the Ilattery.
Word waB received by Capt- De
Bremond commander of the Roswell
contingent. Thursday afternoon that
120 head of horses and six mules had
left the Pecos valley and were expected
to arrive in Columbus at any time for
the battery.
The hospital corps under the com-
mand of MaJ. II. A. Kngle regimental
surgeon also go through a series of
drills daily and the men are as equally
prepared mb any other branch of the
state guard brigade. This branch of the
service la said to be particularly com-
petent and according to MaJ. Kngle.
is also prepared for any emergency that
may arise having a large supply of
medical necessities on hand. The num-
ber of sick and injured has been very
meager in consideration of the num-
ber of men in camp.
Spirit of Meu Excellent.
The spirit of the entire brigade Is
excellent. CoL E. C Abbott judge of
the first judicial district of New Mexico
with headquarters at Santa. Fc and one
of the oldest members of the guard

be commended on their conduct in the

"Naturally when the guardsmen left
their home towns a number were with-

ENGINEERS OF TEXAS WOULD
FORM AN ENGINEER CORPS
Austin. Texas May 19. Organization
of a civilian volunteer engineer corps
for service in case of need has beea
proposed to the adjutant general's de-
partment by PYed Rlghter of Auetln
and San Antonio. There are many en-
Kineers in the state who would be
ready to join the corps. The plan
contemplates the formation of a
civilian volunteer reserve brigade of
engineers for Texas with one officer
of the regular army engineering corps
as advisory head. Training will not
interefere with private business and
will follow as close as possible In-
structions as approved by United
States army engineer officers In case
it is found impossible for any of thos
enlisting to continue In the service
resignations will be accepted.

1R1J0RLD CONDITIONS now make
W it necessary for the people of
this country to face problems that
have never before arisen. '
There arc many such problems and
they affect everyone.
Our own responsibility in these un-
precedented circumstances has been
in so far as foresight and financial
resource might do it to safeguard
the interests of our customers.
In this wejiave been largely success-
ful.
Of household linens for example the
manufacture has almost ceased m
many quarters where linen weaving
was a great industry. Our present
supplies of linens however are the
best and largest in all our history.
Of hosiery and knitted underwear we
have an enormous stock and thus far
on only one single (and unimportant)
article have we found it necessary to
advance a price.
We might particularize further but
these two instances suffice to indicate
that this Store is properly prepared
to serve the interests of its customers
with ample stocks and with uninflaled
prices.
Many say that "The Popular" was-
never so beautiful as now in its dis-
plays of new goods for Summer and
we believe that day after day will
disclose the equally important fact
that it is sound economy to rely on
this Store.
