more merit in 10 than any other one. for the
reason that in addition TO giving good in

this. those who witness the action will doubt
less realize Especially ifthey are old soldiers,
the immense advance made by modern
armament over that IF Gnte-bellum days. and
also think what might have been could such
an armament been had during the late war.
All Of the orders to the several bodies OF
troops engaged will be given by signal. using
both the service signal flag and the bugle sig
nal. Tho indications are that the plan which
will be used will show The training which
both officers and men in the volunteer service
