CONNECTICUT TROOPS IN WAR GAME
Will be in Army to Attack Boston-Brgaded with Some Crack Regiments from Other States-Leave New Haven After Midnight.

skeleton squadron of his own force. the famous Essex troop of New Jer- sey. and one squadron of the Tenth U. s. cavalry, the colored regiment which returned from the Philippines the other day. Another troop of this black regiment will be attached to division headquarters as guard. These are mighty fine cavalrymen, these colored boys. Charging as infantry they got up San Juan hill in time to save the Rough Riders.
 Anyone who thinks that this is to be junket would do well to take look at the list of articles each trooper will be required to pack along with him. These include everything from a bag of oats and horseshoe nails for the cavalrymen. to pickaxes and tent pegs for the infantry, the orders read ing more like the list of equipment for a gang of track laborers than the pop ular idea of soldier. Members of the different companies who have re- ceived these orders and lengthy lists of what they will have to carry have been figuring out what would happen to this numerous equipment if the men were really going into actual bat tie, or were suddenly subjected to a sharp skirmish fire. If such thing should happen, junk men would prob ably reap a harvest at the scene of battle the next day and the state be minus several thousand dollars worth of patent scoop shovels, crowbars and pitchforks.
 Maj. Gen. Leonard Wood. U. s. A., commanding the department of the east, will act as the chief umpire in the field manoeuvres. The invaders are to land somewhere on the Cape not nearer to Boston than New Bed ford or Plymouth, and immediately on landing the telegraph and telephone lines are supposed to be cut, and the invaders and defenders must rely on such means of communication is they may establish to get news of each oth- CTS movements.

That not only the healthy recreation

lack of federal projection of migratory

known to be consumed by these very
birds that the nation is asked to guard
from wholesale slaughter. If the lack
of uniform protection to these birds by
the states which they must cross is
American people any longer. it is
pointed out that the consequences will
be serious.
Farmers, ranchmen, planters and
lumbermen, as we'll as sportsmen and

would not accomplish what this Weeks

come to our aid. however, I believe
that we shall soon see the national gov.
