Young, the recruiting oflioer detailed to cover this town, last Thursday developed the fact that tliere were a goodly number of young men here who were iiot oDly willing hut anxious to take part in the war for Cuban freedom, when one takes into consideration the small interest the boys took in the luilitia movement this result is peculiarly pecu-liarly gratifying. It showed that Springville would come to the front in good shape when the boys thought the occasion really demanded it. Shortly after (Jen. Young's arrival Thursday moruing. the display of 'Old Glorv" above the entrance to the bank marked the location of the vcruiting officer's headquarters. Dr. F. Dunn was also on duty there as examining ex-amining surgeon. The office was thronged all day with men and hoys, attracted through curiosity or a de-cire de-cire to enlist. The first man to put his name on the list was Samuel Dallin, a son of Thomas Dallin, an old line patriot, lie successfully passed through the surgeon's hands and was accented. Elliot N. Jordan, The Independent's rustler, then caught the' fever and went down on the list as No. 2. Dr. Nelson and Ezra Oakley were third and fourth, respectively, and by the time the office closed in the afternoon the roster bore the names ot'-thefoP lowing gentlemen: SAMUEL DALLIN, ELLIOT N.

THE excessive use of tobacco, especially by young men Is always injurious and undoubtedly shortens life materially. Mr. Ed. C. Ebsen, compositor on the Contra-Costa Contra-Costa Rtvx, Martinez, Cal., writes; "I have used Dr. Miles' Esstoratlve Nervine and received re-ceived much benefit from it. I was troubled with nervousness, dizzy spoils and sleeplessness, sleepless-ness, caused by the use of tobacco and stimulants. stim-ulants. I took Dr. Miles' Nervine with mar-vclously mar-vclously good results, allaying tbe dizziness, quieting tbe nerves, and enabling me to sleep and rest, proving la my case a very beneficial remedy."

The latter opened the office at the appointed time and enlisted the following, sending send-ing in the lists the next morning: CANUTE SWENSON, VVILK STREEPEU, WILL LITER, J. C. HELL. A couple of Springville boys who enlisted at other places were: At Eureka HARRY II AN FORD; At Salt Lake City DON C, JOHNSON. This completes the list of the Springville boys who succeeded ingei-ing ingei-ing enrolled. There were many who were not up to the physical standard, and a number of boys under age who wanted to enlist but ceuld not secure their parents' consent. For the first there is no consolation save t hat a disastrous war might so thin the ranks as to make the government less particular., in recruiting. For the latter a year will go far toward mending mend-ing matter with most of them, but they fear the war will not last long enough to afford another opportunity. Taken as a whole, they are a strong, hardy, active lot of young men, but it remains to be seen how they will fare when t.hft hiirh Ktamlnril of nhvsinni. now established by the United States mifitarv authorities Is annlied to them. Should they all go to the front, they wifl make a platoon of which this city may well be proud. tHE CALL COMES. It was expected that a call to Fort Douglas to he mustered in would come for Tuesday, but it was delayed until yesterday morning, the boys departing de-parting this morning on a RiaGrande special.
