Anumber OF men will go up later IN the
week TO swell the representation of the
corps Those who intend going can OBJ
tain transportation from Lieut.. j. f. Kol-
lock Lieut.. John NJ. Bryan and the
chaplain of the battalion, Capt. C. II.
Strong, will go up Wednesday night, and
VIII carry quite large party with them.
1t is safe to say that the average attend
ance OF the battalion in camp will fully
equal that OF any other command in camp
at the same time
SCENES AT THE ARSENAL.
The arsenal was the scene of hustle and
excitement all OF yesterday, with the
men making their preparations TO enter
camp, new men coming in at the last mo-
ment, officers busy experimenting the ar
rangements, men packing up and getting
Their baggage in shape and all the work
OF preparation going forward The fears
that the four companies of the battalion
would not carry the required
representation into camp proved
groundless, and while the repre-
sentation is not az large as was desired,
the battalion made a very creditable
showing on its departure, and with the
additions that will be made daily this
week, it will be fully able to hold its own
with the other commands. The battalion
ala not carry more than half of its
strength from the city. Many however, who
had declared their inability to 20, came
IN at Jhe laSJ moment, and many of those
who were left behind will go up in day or
two. The appearance of those who de-
sired TO 90 and could not was sorrowful
indeed, and their faces were as long as
their arms while they watched their
comrades pack up.
WENT LIKE SOLDIERS
The Guards went of in ship-shape. All
superfiuous baggage. packed in trunks
and valises and tagged with the owners
name, was packed aboard the baggage
car in the afternoon. Each mans blan.
ket bag contained an extra suit of under.
wear, besides all other necessaries for
camp life. The overcoats were neatly
rolled and wrapped on top of the bags
The men wore blue flannel shirts, lean
pantaloons and leggings, with wei
belts, and presented a thoroughly sol
dierly appearance. The guns were carried
in their covers. Canteeus and hayer.
sacks were shipped with the baggage for
every man. The latter win not be needed
however, unless the men are sent out on
march.
AT 10 O'Clock the companies formed in
their company rooms and marched into
the drill hall, where few brief instruc-
tons were given by Col. Garrard There
was considerable rivalry as to which cora.
pany should carry the greatest number OF
men.
COUNT OF THE COMPANIES.
Actual count showed the following re-
suit; Company A, 81; Company 3. 30
Company G, IS and Company d, 30. The
showing made by the baby company, ID.
was considered an especially good one
under the circumstances, and the com
pany was greeted with applause as it
entered the hall. The new com.
pany gave the others a pointer bv
securing number OF trunks for
the transportation Of its baggage. each
man having trunk marked with his
name, the company letter. the battalion
"'lVials and the address. This was Capt.
