SHAM BATTLE

camp Fort, Sea Girt, July 29:-
The big army of visitors that came
for Governors Day had many inter
esting military sights to view. Those
who arrived early were treated to a
sham battle, several companies of
the First Regiment being distributed
along the road that skirts the en-
campment. After having been en-
trenched they prepared to resist the
attack of other companies Of the
same regiment. Men were formed
as skirmishers and advanced.
1t was the first conflict on the pa
rade ground and was lively while it
lasted. When the advancers came
within range the soldiers stationed
on the road opened fire. The ad-
ANGER started to aneuv for DO
sition and gradually sent men for
ward who stole along the grass and
popped at every head that arose In
the roadway. 1t was instruction
work of the best kind and many off,
GERS in Quality Row were witnesses.
The guardsmen were next instruct
ed In putting up shelter tents as Is
done In a long hike. Each man was
provided with half q tent and stakes.
After the order was given the SOL
diers worked industriously getting
the tents In position, and the big
field presented an interesting sight.
Mounted officers went among the
lines and made a few recommended
lions here and there tending to i'm
prove the alignment of the tents.
Preparations were made during
the day by the regular army and
regimental officers for the expected
sham battle today, when 1t Is ex-
pected that the two regiments will
be pitted against each other In the
vicinity of the county club grounds,
about a. mile from camp. The Off
