HUTCHISON Eulogies For Late Commander Held at Fort Bliss, Texas SANDSTORMS CONTINUE Boys Have Regular Wash Day; Letter From Trooper Rich ard T. Coover News from the soldier boys in the South shows marked improvement in conditions. Reports received from Harrisburg soldiers indicate a return home after the troops have been given a taste of real army life. This week will probably find Pennsylvania boys close to Mexico. Letter From Trooper Dearest Mother: I was in El Paso yesterday and had quite a nice time. You should see that place, it is a beautiful city—all along the streets you see the little houses called adobe huts. They are truly wonderful. There are some beautiful Spanish girls, also some American girls in El Paso. We expect to get our horses to morrow, then there will be some fun. There are about 6,000 horses in the corrall. They are all young ones, with a lot of ginger and pep, believe me. I walked over the international bridge into Juarez, Mexico, where they are fighting. I borrowed a fellow's civilian suit, otherwise I could not have got ten In. I am feeling fine and expect to be back home within two months or less. I don't think I will be away aYiy longer. You ask about the water —at first we were only allowed one quart a day, but they have laid a water pipe up to our camp, which is about 8 miles from El Paso. The nights are warm up until about 1:30 a. m. then you can stand two blan kets. They are of wool and very heavy. The one is a sleeping blanket and the other a horse blanket. The heat to-day is 135 in the shade—what do you think of that? Some heat, isn't it? I am keeping my diary every day and learning to speak Spanish. Just now there is a great big sand storm coming right through the camp. It comes up in the form of a funnel, and anything in its path goes with it too. But the rainy season which soon will be here will rid us of these sand storms. Wait till you see my mous tache and my sunburn you won't know me. Sunday was our captain's 44 th birthday, wc all chipped in and bought him a pair of cavalry boots. Instead of a birthday cake, the cooks, Weber and Oves baked him a big pie with 44 and 1916 made of dougn on the top. It was fine and both Captain Jack and all of us boys were quite happy. I am feeling well and would like to have a box of eats from home as we get tired of the army food. Re member me to all my frien'ds and tell them how hot it is in Mexico. RICHARD T. COOVER, Trooper. From Corporal H. J. Bretz Company D has now been stationed on this sandy desert eleven days and the members are fast becoming ac customed to the hot days and cool nights, the varied drills of school of the soldier, school of the squad, and school of the company. The Harrisburg boys are standing the heat of the Southern sun very well and there is not one case of serious sickness in the entire company. Of course some members have had slight headaches, sore arms, and a few cases of cramps, but these were quickly re lieved at our regimental hospital and all are now able to answer roll call. On Wednesday evening the Eighth Regiment had dress parade, and just about the time the companies were lined up on the field, a very severe sand storm began blowing. It was very trying for the men, but they went through the review uncomplain ingly. As the slogan of Company D Is cleanliness it is up to each man to see that his clothes, equipment and home is kept in the best sanitary con dition possible. The floors of the tent have been scraped clear of sand, and every morning and evening sprinkled with water. This helps to keep down the dust and in time will cause a very hard and firm floor. Soldiers Have Wash Day One of the most interesting sights is to see the guardsman wash his own clothes. The company has provided a wash tub and wash rubber and when one's clothes get dirty he procures the tub and wash rubber and goes to work. It goes a little awkward at first, but by the time Company D gets back home, many a wife will have a proficient "washer-woman" in the home and then there will be no need for her to bend over the wash tub Monday mornings. The other day Sergeant Russel had a wash on the line, when suddenly a sand storm came up ana picked the wash from the line and deposited it in the sand about fifty yards away. Of course this is to be expected. The evenings are spent in going to the movies at Fort Bliss (which, by the way, are free), writing to the folks back home and groups or melodious singers making the still night air ring with their harmonious voices. Noth ing seems to strike the heart of these lonely, far from home guardsmen, than a little music and Company D is rapidly forming a very good male chorus. Monday begins battalion drill and Company D is looking forward to a very interesting and not too strenuous week of learning to a good soldier.

I am going to send you some facts about a military camp that might be inter esting to Harrisburg readers. Do you know that in towns and cities about here soldiers have come to look to the Chamber of Commerce to sec that facilities are provided for the purchase of necessities and that they are not overcharged. That is, articles of a civilian nature that sol diers are acustomed to provide for their own convenience. Do you know that in the Ft. Bliss section alone 500 cords of wood are used each day. One-twelfth of a cord to each mess and one-twelfth of a cord to each incinerator. During the winter season this is more than double as each tent Is Issued wood to keep warm. Do you know that It will take 7 3,000 horses and mules to equip the soldiers now at Fort Bllsp. They are issued as follows: To Infantry regiments 49 riding horses, 92 draft mu:es, 6 riding mules, 17 pack mules for tne machine gun company and one pack mule for the sanitary detachment, ror neld artillery regiments 340 draft horses, 259 riding hprses, 84 draft muies, 3 HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH riding mules and one sanitary pack mule. For a cavalry regiment 1029 cavalry horses, 124 draft mules. 3 rid ing mules, 17 pack mules for the ma chine gun platoon, and one sanitary pack mule. Do you know that several sand storms visit this section each day and so peculiar are they that only one tent in each company street may be damaged and swept away while the occupants of the next tent only a dozen feet away will not be disturbed. Memorial For Colonel Hutchison Last evening a memorial service was held for the late General Joseph Hutchison at which a large number of officers from other commands and from the Fort Bliss barracks were present. Chaplain Bassler told of his life and his long connection with the guard and how he had worked his way up from the rank and by his earnest efforts and excellent example won the support and favor of all. Col. Finney was introduced and he also eulogized his former commander and close personal friend and asked of the officers and men the same earnest ef fort that was extended to General Hutchison. Prominent among those present were Major General Clement and staff, Brigadier General O'Nlel and staff and commanding officers of Fort Bliss.
