Eleven Fail to Pass The Physical Test.

Major ChittiCk, of Frankfort, of the Field Hospital, was in Rensselaer Tuesday and while here examined forty-eight of Captain Tuiteur’s new recruits, with the result that el eye a of them failed to pass the physical test. The majoriy of those failing to pass the test required failed on account of bad teeth, but it is thought that when these young men have visied a dentirt they will be ma position to pass the test. Thirteen or fourteen of the new recruits were not on hand for the test and will have to take it at a later time. The failure of the eleven reduces the strength of the company to 104 men.
