One argument for wooden bridges Is
that they have to be replaced and
give men employment. A city with
no one employed at this time of the

dangerous place to live in when men

ments, there Is necessarily quite lit- tie visiting done during the night Tn various streets, and 1t Is a most de- corous guardsman who can say after he has spent a single camp at Mantle that he has never paid a visit to the so-called "Splritualist Camp" just the other side of the high board fence that marks one of the boundaries.
 No matter how hard the milltiamen at Pine Camp may be working this year, there Is no doubt but that they are still enjoying the same pranks and the same social pleasures that they al- ways have, for without these, 1t Is safe to say that the interest In the militia of the state would fall off in an alarm ing degree.
 In closing 1t Is we'll to bring to mind popular name that was derived through certain organization that started at camp at Mantle In 1906. It was organized In one of the company streets by an able committee of initia- tors, known as the Sun Worshippers.' In tent. the committee divided up in- to inner and outer guards to dispense the mysteries of the order to the un- controllable mrth of the initiated to new and old alike. This order spread through the regiment until 1t had even included In It's membership a number of the residents of the officers street. It was planned to have the second de- gree, to be known as the Moon Shin ers,' but the great number of appli- cants for the first degree took up all of the time that the members had to forego the granting of the second.
 An so. mingled with their drills and hikes, which at the time causes no small amount of grumbling among the men, sore feet and tired bodies, pleas ure eked out make camp life happy one and no man who has never been fortunate enough to walk down along the parade ground and sit up in back of the battery with the blue sky over head, and with the strains of song waited to his ears by the winds from the city of tents can resist the desire to steal down to the camp on Cover nor's day and be with the boys as he has been in the past for just a few hours more.

What the Guardsman Does to Amuse Himself and to Cause Amusement
 for Others.
THE ROCKIES TROUBLES
Experience at Mantle, Pine Camp or Manassas One That Can Re- suit In Nothing But
 Good.

With news combining hard work, hot weather and a cyclone coming from Pine Camp, New York, where the members of the Second regiment are doing their annual tour of duty, the minds of more than one veteran, par ticularly those who were present at the maneuvers in Manassas, turn back to dents, which In the past havemade the annual encampment of the Connecticut National Guard so interesting 10 the citizen soldiers The routine side of the soldiers life presents little or no inter- est to the average person. On the oth- CT hand, their life. their pleasures and their pranks while off duty, are the attractive features. It is with this thought in view that the following more or less amusing incidents which have occurred at past encampments of the militia at Mantle and elsewhere, have been collected here,
 The man who is liable to meet with the greatest amount of "joshing' of the good natured sort from his fellows Is of course the rookie" His initia- ton, of course. depends upon his per sonal popularity and willingness to take all that comes in the spirit of good humor It. Is most satisfactory to be able Co note that in recent years there have been very few of the com panies where the militamen have gene to the extreme In this matter of ini- tiatlng new men while at camp. In fact these stunts are now conceived and managed with the Idea of absolute ly no physical harm but considerably jarring to ones pride,
 One Instance may be called to mind, in which a member of Company F gained considerable lasting prominence through his fellows. with the partial assistance of the newspapers and be- cause of his ignorance of military mat ters. He was sent by one of the mem- bers of his company to the headquar- ters of the regimental commissary. with the absurd request for sixty light umbrellas to be used by his company in case they were called upon to drill during a shower Another gibe that was worked with considerable success at the expense of a recruit was 10 send him 10 the first sergeant of his com pany, In search of pillows for hls cot, and scabbard oil with which 10 keep the bayonets well sharpenei St'll another man was sent to headquarters with the request that he be given l5O feet of skirmish line 10 be used In the

The Rocky Mountain Club Has 500 Members and Handsome Club Rooms in the Waldorf Astoria.

New York. Aug. 12.-(Special Core spondence of The Republiean.)-T Rocky Mountain club of New York continues to grow. It has a member ship of five hundred and recently has had to secure larger quarters. It has leased the entire west wing of the fifteenth floor of the Waldorf Astoria where it has a large reception room in addition to a suite of twelve smaller rooms. The club rooms have a decid- ed western look. Handsome heads giv- en by members and pictures of life in the west decorate the walls.
 The entertainment committee of which COlvin E. Brown is the chair man announces that the regular Sat urday night Smokers will be resumed early in October and that upon each of these occasions the club will be ad- dressed by a speaker familiar with the various sections of the west. Stereop- tican views and moving pictures will be used to illustrate the lectures. Much interest in the west was created by this kind of entertainment given by the club last winter and it is pro posed to continue the work of educa- tion and to amplify it to cover all sec

 The club was formed for the purpose of promoting good fellowship among it's members and for furthering the interests of the west in the east and 1t is hoped that all western commer- cial bodies will see to it that the club is supplied with all publications in tended to call to the attention of the country to the great empire west of the Mississippi Large bulletin boards and tables are provided for the display of such publications.
 Theodore Gibson of Great Falls, Mont, has loaned to the club his col lection of paintings by the Cowboy artist c. NJ Russell. They have been hung up in the reception room and have created much interest and dis cussion among artists and art critics.
