Slrjor MrCIay and Ilia Men lllchly Com pllmcnted Kierythlnjf In and About tbe Camp la Apple Ma Order 1'rlde of Its Officers. The Third Nebrabka re'eiment has turned an ulu blUiaid table. Morning News. potato field into a says the Savannah If that regiment has not the pret tiest camp in the Seventh army corps, then none has. It is laid out with the regularity of a checker board, and everything else about It ruus in the same direction. The Third Nebraska is encamped on the south side of Dale avenue going towards Thurderbolt, and 13 about a quarter of a mile from the road. First comes the First Tesas regiment, then the Second Louisiana, and beyond thai the Nebraskans are located. Still further beyond their regiment is the division corral with its thousand mules, and numerous wagons. The Nebraska regiment has been in command of Maj. J. H. McClay, ever since it has been in Savannah, Colonel Bryan came to Savannah in advance of his regiment and was sick at the time of his arrival. Lieutenant Col onel Vifqualn wan also sick when his regiment left Jacksonville, and both he and Colonel Bryan have been away almost ever since that time on sick leave. Colonel Bryan's sick leave ex tends to December S. Lieutenant Col onel Vifquain is expected back within four or five days. Major McCiay has done some mag nificent work with his regiment since he has had hold of it." The excellence of the camp ground has been due to his management assisted as he was by the other officers. The regiment was furnished with new tents of brown canvass for the men, and white canvas for the officers about two weeks ago, and these tents have been set up in most excellent shape. Their align ment is perfect and this is true of ever other feature of the regimental camp. There would not be a curve in a string stretched along the row con taining tbe company kitchens and quartermasters' tents, which is in the rear of the camp and even the com pany wood piles are set up on en gineering principles. The officers of this regiment take especial pride in the condition of their camp, and they were proud of the compliment, paid them yesterday by Gen. Fitzhugh Lee, when he visited the camp, accompanied by. his able Lieut. Algernon Sartoris. "Yon have a most magnificent camp, a magnificent camp," he said in reit eration, speaking to the officers as he left it, and he had inspected it thor oughly. General Lee was not out on a formal inspecting tour. He was simply tak ing his afternoon exercise on horse back, after finishing his letter work for the day, and among others he took in the camp of the Third Nebraska. He looked around the officers' tents, tbe company streets and tents, and the company kitchens and regimental bakery. General Lee seemed welt pleased with the camp, and his com pliment upon its appearance was an emphatic one. There Is not an osficer or a man in the regiment who does not take the greatest pride in its appearance. The company kitchens are as neat and carefully looked after as are the kitch ens of the best hotels. Everything Is as clean and tidy as it could possi bly be ia a well regulated family. The regimental' bakery is a sight worth aay,lx)dys iBspectioa, with its brn.taat . nukes .259 loaves at a bak- j IBS, ana n lurns out ureau uiai. woum do credit to any bakery in Savannah.

The brief tunounce ment of his deatH was contained in a communication received by E. W. Julian, editor of the Dawes County Journal, from C. B. Hill, formerly ed itor of the Chadron Citizen, bat now engaged in the printing business at Monterey. Mr. Shears was confined to his bed only fourteen days, the last five of which he was delirious. He ',;"?, ". l".ri. a"raj' ?" m: died at 4 o'clock Sunday morning.

His death brings to an end an eventful career, and. des pite his weakness, which resulted in his misappropriation of funds which came into his hands while clerk of the district court here and his subsequent absconding from the county. Mr. Shears has many friends throughout this section of the state, to whom the news of his death was a sad surprise. Mr. Hill writes that there have been a great many deaths among the Ameri can colony In Monterey this fall, hard-fA. ly a aay nut wnat taere are one or . more fatal cases of the dread yellow . fever. i Mr. Shears was one of the most pop ular mem ia this county when he first came Into political prominence, he be ing at that time engaged In the news paper business at Whitney.

Tbere'a Something Wrong. Beatrice dispatch: Lcaman C. Peters, in a letter front Manila to his father, speaks out In writing about some matters which have frequently been hinted at. Answerinr other things of interest he says: "An investigation of some parts of the commissary and quartermasters' departments wouldn't do any harm and would undoubtedly unearth some questionable work somewhere. r Red Cross supplies donated by the. pedple of California to be given to the boys were sold instead of issued and eyed the towels, of which it was intended each inan. was to be given three, were ebld for2S cents apiece, tho money go'7 ing to somebody for whom it was not intended. On our trip over canned milk was . sold from the commissary for 30 cents ; for the soldiers at actual cost. It is easy to see that something is wrong. One officer was heard to remark that he made over $500 off the trip. Of course this mar be all rieht. but an tures or the work in his otnee a large part of the report is devoted to the ru ral free delivery now in operation in thirty-five states. It contains the fol lowing on the rural service at Tectim seb. Neb.: "The people along the line of free delivery routes," said Mr. Brundage, the postmaster, "are as a rule well pleased with the service and desire Its continuance, but the business men would be glad to see free delivery dis continued, as they claim it hurts busi ness. The amount of mail handled by the rural carriers has increased about 40 per cent from the time of its estab lishment. There has been a large in crease in the delivery of newspapers in the district, but the boxes provided as a rule have been poor, and as a rule not secure or safe." Will Tear Up the Tracks.

Rising City dispatch: A peculiar state of affairs has just come to light in Reading township, in which th'31 place is situated. ' Ever since the adop- ( tion of township organization it is' said that the town board has een in the habit of allowing the town treas urer $25 per annum as town treasurer, ' in addition to the statutory allowance fcf 3 per cent on all moneys collected except school money, on which 1 per cent ia allowed. Not finding cny au thority in the compiled statutes for allowing the town treasurer the ex tra $25 one of the members of the, board recently addressed the county, attorney asking for his advice In the premises.

Charged W.th Stealing- a Tram. Dakota City dispatch: A. Lifkln, a former liveryman at South Sioux City, was locked up In jail late Saturday night by Sheriff Borowsky. to await a preliminary hearing on a warrant sworn out by William H. Mitchell of South Sioux City charging Llefkin with stealing a team from him. Leif kin was arrested at Holstein. Ia.. on advices from the sheriff here. For some time past Liefkin has announced his intention of removing ftom South Sioux City into Iowa, making the jour ney by team. The team Liefkin is accused of stealing seems to warrant a controversy as to ownership, as Lief kin claims Mitchell has only paid a very small portion of the purchase price. Liefkin has always borne a good reputation and he promises to clear himself and make it pretty warm for young Mitchell. Liefkin is an uncle of Mitchell, and for a number of years past Mitchell has made his home with him. Oppose the Esaoltia. Wymore dispatch: The people of j this section of the state are very out spoken In expressing their views upon the proposed idea of continuing the trans-Mississippi exposition next year, and while this part of the state con tributes much Jo the success of tbe big show this.; year, it Is not likely they will do much, toward making it a success should the idea be carried " i t out to continue it another summer. While the city received some few benefit-, from the exposition as a re sttll of many people having to spend a hall day here while en route home from fho exposition, there can be no question but what the business men of Wymore. as well as an other jNe braska towns, suffered as a result of its being held, and now that there is talk of continuing for another sum mer th? business men of this section of the state are not backward in ex pressing their opinion 01 the matter.
