A few evenings since we listened to a conversation between some elderly people in regard to a curfew law. As I understand it, it is tbe proper and most sadly needed thing in our town. It is the safeguard for the young people. It is an old time custom and a good one. Often, very often we find the old ways of life much better to follow. While not so racy and fast more 6ure and with better results.
Word has come from the far Fouth that some of our boys have fallen a prey to the fever and are quite sick at the hospital. There is also word that Company M. along with the regiment is ordered to Cuba. It is sou'.ethinsr we all hale to hear of, our friends and neighbors going into that far off tropical climate with its terrific heat, its venemous snakes and insects and worse than all else, treacherous Spaniards. It does look bard indeed that we must send our noble men of the United States into such a murderous place where it is almost sure death. Yet we feel it our duty to uphold tbe cause of freedom and right and give aid to those poor suffering CubanB who have held out so long for their freedom.
