Campaign Preparations. Necessarily there are many detail to he attended to upon the beginning of any campaign and tills one la no exception. Luring tbe first part of the morning the men were given In structions in pitching, striking, and folding tents. It waggery Interesting to watch various men as they went Shout this work- Home were already proficient, others had a fairly good bleu 0* to whrtt they were trying to do, and others- but let’s draw the curtain of charity over the scene' Of course the regulars went at theirs like the veterans they are. every move ment counting for something, tho ef fect of the whole being that of tra •chlne-llke precision. The militiamen proved themselves apt students and It is a safe proposition that every one of them, after the work of tho morning understands what Is to he dona with a tent in addition to using It as a cover ing The quartermaster* were kept busy throughout the morning in the work of Issuing rations for the march. While the troops are In the field each man has his own rations issued to ,lm and must attend to his cooking him self, dig his own little trench, make bis own fire, prepare his bacon, and boll his coffee. In addition to his ba ron and coffee, he Is furnished with a generous supply of "hardtack " Incidentally, T T nde Ham this ration business figured out to a nicety, Ho employs men In his laboratories whose sole business Is to determine mine the exact amount of each »f these foods necessary to furnish the proper nutrition.

Scientists will tell you thftt this give* protelds, carbohydrates and tats In such proportion as Is needed by a man doing the kind of work re quired of soldiers on the n arch. Return Wednesday Morning. The best available information is that the two armies will have camp this afternoon about X» o’clock and will return to camp tomorrow near noon. Tbe will go in different directions. When night falls they will bivouac wherever they happen to be. Tomor row morning they will begin approach ing each other, both having In view the working out of the war problem assigned by the camp commander. The working out of this problem provides for a "sham battle" during the early part of the morning. It Is probable that a portion of this "battle" can be witnessed from a point close to the present camp site though the exact location cannot be given as the armies arc expected t<> ho In Ignorance of ea< h other'* location Toko a tip and go out to Autnund early tomorrow mornlna. the chances arc moat ex cellent that yen will he able to hoar and a ee something moat Interesting.
