Announcement was made yesterday at the oflices of the State Board of Health that in spection of the hotels of the State will begin Monday, August "7.- The inspectors doing the work will be Drs. W. S. Rankin, G. M. Cooper, and J. R. Gordon, all of the State health department. While their tour of in spection will not be made public, it is understood that they will visit within the next several weeks prac tically every hotel in the State. - While this inspection service is op tional on the part of hotel managers, there seems to be a general demand from the managers themselves for this particular servic. Numerous re quests are being received by the Board, one of which is from one of the largest railroads of the country, asking for this inspection service for all their dining cars operatimr in the State and for their terminal hotels also. yi By John M.

All the Mdiers were paid in cash and it required more than $100,000. The mosquitoes drive is at hand, and, despite counter attacks with cit ronellee and other concoctions it looks as if the pests are making ad vances. Never before, according to officers and veteran enlister men, have mosquitoes swarmed into camp as they have in the past few days. The soldiers close their tents, burn pine needles, boughts, etc. for sev eral hours before tattoo but to lit tle avail as the mosquitoes continue to come into camp in swarms all dur ing the night. Last night scores of men left their tents and went to the banks of Bogue Sound to sleep.
