The detachment Is among the first of the Pennsylvania guard to be ordered to the Mexican border, and the men were enthusiastic over the prospects of active service. Of great Interest to the small crowd of spectators were two field wireless devices, each mounted on a twowheel cart. There were also several ambulances, and three box cars in which horses were being transported. The boys were greatly disappointed because breakfast was not served here. They were told to hold their ravenous appetites in check until they arrived in Indianapolis. Abuse Day Coaches. All the enlisted men were in day coaches, and they profanely expressed the fervent hope that they would not have to spend another night In them. These troops were entrained yesterday morning at 10:45 o'clock at Mt.
Gretna, P., where the entire Pennsylvania guard has been mobilized. When Informed of the plans being made here to welcome troops bound for the border, one of the officers declared the soldiers would appreciate anything the citizens of Richmond planned to do for them, and that a decided hit could be scored by the presentation of pipes or tobacco. "Tobacco is something soldiers alway want, and are generally out of," he remarked. "We do not encourage such gifts as candy, fruit and cake. It is not good for the men."
