CAMP NEWS
FROM PICKENS

Thursday evening it was wet and
miserable in camp, owing to the
wind, which made things lively for a
time. About five o'clock. several OF
the officers tents were blown partly
down, while that belonging to Lieu
tenant Hope Cawthon of Company X,
was turned over and blown a little
distance. Happily, no one w"~ inside
at the time and very little damage
was down. Half of the mess tent Oh
the 18th was torn down and tins were
blown about.
In Battery Worth (mortar battery
the 18th regulars are working with
Company X in pit A, and the 10th in
pit B, with Company NJ. Both the
militia companies are doing splendid
work and improving every day To-
night (Friday) they will have their
first experience of night drill.
This morning Battery Worth had
sub-calibre practice, each pit working
two mortars. and each mortar firing
fifteen rounds. Reports as to the
firing have not yet come in, but the
number of hits are said to be good.
The regular army officers are very
courteous to the men and encourage
them in asking questions.
There was no nOn+cOmmiSSiOned
officers this morning, as the men did
not get back from working the guns
in time.

After a cold day, the warm sun Satur-
day made all feel good.
AT 7:45 D. m. there was drill in all
the batteries. and the cold wind made
all the men both regulars ard militia,
go eagerly to the work. There was
not as qick work done as in the day,
as the electric lights seemed to be
defective. One of the men on No. 1
mortar in pit A had his foot run over
by truck. and is little lame this
morning, with that exception, all are
well.
Thursday night, Sergeant wyslo.
gels, of Company NJ, had blanket
exercise, much TO the annoyance OF

Outwitted the Landlord.

When recently leasing house in a
fashionable suburb of Philadelphia
the lessee failed to examine closely
the terms of the lease. After a time
his landlord called and reminded him
that he was bound to do all the out
side painting at certain intervals. The
tenant protested in vain; so he en-
gagged painters. and ordered them to
paint the whole front of the house
red, white and blue-in stripes.
When it was finished the neighbor.
hood rose up in arms, and the land
lord was frantic. The tenant politely
explained that there was nothing in
the lease about the color, SO he in
tended to finish the job by painting
the back OF the house green with
large yellow spots The landlord saw
that he had met his match, and within
a few days the tenant had a new
lease, in which the landlord undertook
TO do all the outside painting.-Lip-
