THE BOYS AT WHIppLE.
The Phoenix Volunteers Takino
 Their Firsf Lessons in War.

Whipple Barracks, Ariz., July G. Especial Correspondence of The Re publican.) )-The trip Of the volunteers from Phoenix to the barracks was uneventful aside from an occasional yell of some unfortunate comrade who had so far forgot himself as to in dulge in little nap. The penalty was invariably a shower of ice water CT a. section of watermelon propelled at the rate of sixty miles an hour from some automatic quick-fring fun mounted on every side. We arrived at the post at 5:30 a. m. We were immediately com manded to fall out and fall in by Ser geant Lamson, who called the roll and detailed a squad to clean the barracks and another to carry the baggage. The boys went at it with will, especially those detailed to carry the carload Of melons that the good people of Phoe- nix gave us. About 10 a. m. the as sembly call was sounded and the boys were commanded to fall in with the proper implements to make an on slaught on Uncle Sam's bill of fare. consisting of two cups of coffee, two slices of bacon, piece of bread and liberal allowance of brown sugar. Each corporal was in charge of his respective squad and it was his du.y to see that each one got his proper rations and did not overload his stOm ach, as each one was held personally responsible for the safety of the men placed under his care. Captain Russell placed the men under strict military discipline right from the start, but not man has murmured- They all know it is for their own good and that their captain has their inter ests at heart
