Flashes from the Front.
 Many visitors are expected in camp the latter part of the week.
 The Second Regiment band arriv- ed in camp Tuesday morning.
 The captains of the various con- panies of the econd in order of their seniority are as follows:
 Several members of the companies are already being treated because their backs are sun burned.
 The food is more than pleasing and the boys are not backward in ex- pressing their appreciation of it.
 There have been very few 'fakirs' in camp as yet. Those handling 2os- tai cards have done a tremendous business.
 The Waterbury officers looked rather hobby when they called upon Governor Woodruff Monday evening to pay their respects.
 The Y. M. c. A. tent is where the boys do all their writing. Thousands of postals are being sent out and let ters in large quantities.
 At every camp telephone some one must be in attendance from reveille until taps, except when organizations are absent from the camp.
 The water at spiritualists camp is suitable for bathing and the boys go over there in goodly numbers when they get time during the day. .u
 The Dutch" company raised rim Monday night. One of the guards who did not know any better was calling for corporals all night.
 AS the Second regiment left the grounds on the march Tuesday, the Second band played ''The Campbells Are Coming" in honor of Colonel Geddes.
 Chaplain John N. Ferris. Jr, of the Second, spoke at services in the Y. M. c. A. tent last evening (Mon- day). k. de F. Miel of the First, also said few words.

 Walter Monogan and Billy Ghent went to Mantle Tuesday and boarded a car which they thought would take them to New London. After an hours ride they were back whence they started. They were on a belt line
 A member of one of the companies was found last evening with nothing but running pants on. The guard tried to nab him but bunch of his companions got him into their street. What they did to him made him wish that the guard had caught him.
 Because of the cots in the tent blanket rides are not given nearly as often as in past years. The cots make 1t very hard to move much in the tent. They also make 1t something like work when an effort is being made to get them out of the tents.
 Hubert Cunningham and Quarter master Bowe are two of the most pe- culiar looking persons imaginable, es- pecially when they are asleep. Wal ter Monogan said that when he awoke and saw Hubert he had to look twice to make sure where he was at.
