ranged, brings out the new colors to fine
advantage. Captain Riggs has drilled
the color sergeants in their duties and
they are all familiar with their work.
Among the most interesting places at
Leesburg is the Leesburg Inn, which is
the rendezvous for many of the officers
and even the enlisted men. 1t is To-
Gated on the main street. facing the his
toric. old courthouse, and has been the
abode of many of the prominent men Of
the Old Dominion. In the town there is
also a house where Lafayette once
stopped, and it is pointed out to all the
visitors to camp. There is much OF in
terest to be seen in the old town.
While all the boys came down to camp
to work hard and fare just as though
they were on the field in active service.
;hey nevertheless have some spare time
In the afternoons, and; spend this time
in directing, their attention from their
arduous camp duties. There are vari-
o,is ways Of spending the time, but the
best way. so most OF the boys have
found out Is playing ball, and indulging
In divers other outdoor athletic srorts,
such as swimming, running. and other
tests of manly prowess.
The boys have plenty of space In
The Washington times., 1902-07-20

been given a thorough course OF in
structioG by the on-commissioned OFF,
GERS. while the companies have also
been taught every feature Of extended
order. During the week there will be
battalion drill, in both offensive and
defensive, and later there will be regi-
mental formation.
Use of Cavalry Troops.
Troops E and F, OF the Second Cav
airy. which are stationed here, will CO.
operate with the militiamen in the ma
neuvers, but it has not been decided
whether the force will be divided, or
both troops be assigned as portion
of the attacking force or the defense.
There is considerable speculation as
to the scene'of the battle. as 1t is not
thought Fort Evans will be the place
selected this year. Each OF the regi-
mental commanders has had an OPP
portunity to rcconnoiter the country
surrounding, and it is believed that the
commanding general will pick out some
other site.
At any rate, the affair will be ar
ranged so tina. the principles OF battle
action can be brought out, to involve
also many minor problems. There are
any number of old forts about Loudoun
county, within easy access, any one OF
which could be used for the purpose.
Perfect Discipline.
Perfect discipline exists in camp at
all times, and the men are following
out implicitly the directions Of the COM
manding general in their behavior in
Leesburg. AS was the case last year,
he decided not to place a provost guard
in the town to preserve order, but
placed the men on their honor. While
there are some few Of. the younger ele
ment of Guardsmen who are inclined to
grow boisterous at times. the example
set by the older men is good one.
1t is the intention Of General Harries
The Washington times., 1902-07-20

ing the evening those who have no spe.
cial duties assigned them are at leisure
until tattoo" at 9:45. Taps" at 1915
finds all lights out and the Guardsmen
slumbering.
Gossip Before the Battle.
Already gossip concerning the field
maneuvers or sham battle is heard, and
the mimic fight of the Guardsmen prom
ises to be more interesting and excit-
ing than ever before. While it has not
been definitely announced when the
maneuvers will be held. it is more than
probable that they will take place over
Thursday and Friday.
Last year an assault was made on
Fort Evans by Col. NJ. Emmett Urell
with the Second Regiment, or Army OF
the Potomac, and he captured the Army
of Virginia, as represented by the First
Regiment, under Colonel May without
much difficulty.
The boys are now fighting it over
again. and each has his own STORY of
how the day was won or lost at prcvi-
Gus camps The work which the men
are being put through is such that 1t
will fit them for the brigade field ma
neuvers. The squads and platoons have
The Washington times., 1902-07-20

the head of the movement and according
to last reports he is succeeding in in
teresting great many of the men.
On Wednesday, of last years encamp-
ment, an athletic meet was held and
there was quite a large number of con-
testants The sport was witnessed by
a large and enthusiastic crowd. Gen.
Harries, and several members of his
staff witnessed the sport, and awarded
the prizes.
The swimming facilities offered the
boys are not the best IN the world. A
little creek runs placidly near the rail-
road tracks, which is a good three
fourths OF a mile from the outskirts
OF the camp. and over hilly ground at
that. When they get there the place
is usually crowded by several hundred
men, who not only bathe in the some-
what stagnant pool, but also wash their
clothing there.
1t is proposed that a practice march
be made some day this week TO the
river, which Is several miles from here.
and then the boys can swim TO their
hearts content. as the stream is several
hundred yards wide and OF good depth.
This has been suggested to the General.
and he will in all probability sanction 1t.
The Washington times., 1902-07-20

in order. Up to the present time not a
single incident has transpired to mar
the pleasantness of the outing. and,
everything considered, the remaining
time promises to pass by with equal
quiet.
Arrangements have been perfected for
holding religious services on the lawn
fronting the commanding generals tent
at 3:45 o'clock in the afternoon. Capt
George F. Dudley, chaplain of the Sec
end Regiment, will ofhciate. Additional
services will be held at night in the
The Washington times., 1902-07-20

Young Mems Christian Association tent
at Leesburg.
Nearly all Of the boys are expecting
relatives or friends from Washington to
visit the camp tomorrow, and they will
be given ample opportunity TO show
them around.
Are Getting Hardened.
Old Sol has made its impression on
the Guardsmen, and the 1000 or more
young men who left Washington on
Thursday morning now look like vet
Grams. Their delicate skin is beginning
to assume a dark hue, and their hands
are becoming hardened like the old cam
paigners.
They take well to the work, and but
little complaint is heard. The recruits
are being broken in by those who have
seen service in the field before, and
rome of them will have cause to regret
the experience at Camp Ordway.
Their Daily Routine.
With reveille at $50 o'clock in the
morning. the boys are soon up and NOV
ing about, and they are put through set
ting-ap exercises for ten minutes. This
fits them for breakfast. which Is served
