Range near New Castle. is having
a week Of actual camp life and
real service. Interesting reports
come from Company Els part in
the maneouvres. Sergeant Hughie
Morris has been appointed orderly
to the Governor to act during the
encanpnent. Captain l.. B.
Jacobs of Company + was officer
of thet day on Tuesday.
The local company left town at
g o'clock Friday, reaching the
camp shortly after o'clock, hav-
ing stopped for three-quarters of
an hour at Christiana. On a cross
road which is exactly one mile in
length, the men were timed and
found to make the march in
twelve minutes. Upon their ar
rival at Camp Cannon all the men
were in good condition.
The regulation army ambulance
was with the company. This was
purchased at the instruction Of the
War Department some months
ago when trouble threatened with
Mexico. The ambulance in active
service is drawn by a team of
mules. but these not being easily
obtained, fine team Of horses
was substituted.
In spite Of the heavy rain of
Monday. the First Regiment was
at work early Tuesday morning
The first and second battalions
under the commands Of Majors
Reed and Lank. respectively. ad.
vanced into action as part Of al
extended firing line. The men
seemed to enjoy the work and

posedly wounded, and were at
attended by members Of the. hos
pital detachment. In the after
noon the men took part in battal

the NJ. f. Church; the sermon was
delivered by Rev. w. j. Rowan,
First Presbyterian Church, and
the closing exercises were con-
Quoted by Rev. II. b. Phelps, of
st. Thomas p. E. Church.
The Scripture reading for the
evening was from the first chapter
of James. and from this lesson DR..
Rowan drew practical talk filled
with helpful ideas. He urged his
hearers to test their religion: Is
it pure and undefiled9 Does it
minister to the fatherless and the
widows? Does it keep you un-
spotted from the world? Does it
make You love your neighbor as
yourself? The singing Of the
grand old hymns of the church
was an impressive feature of the
service.

POISON SCARED OUT OF HIM
Young New Jersey Farmer, Fearing
Loss Of Arm, Has Singular
Recovery.

Clayton, N. J.-Joseph G. Souder. a
prosperous young farmer Of Clayton,
who recently purchased the Bubois
farm for $4,000. was bitten on the
!lnger by hog he was killing sew
cral weeks ago, and blood poisoning
set In. The finger was lanced, but
he poison spread to his arm, which
I was thought would have to be am
outated. Souder objected to losing the
arm, but as he grew worse he start
ed for the hospital.
Before leaving Clayton Souder said:
MY arm feels better" and before
'eaching the hospital he declared 1t
was well, and begged to be taken
back home. But his brother,in-law,
who accompanied him. insisted on his
going to the hospital Here 1t was
'ound that the arm was we'll. the BAN
iage taken off and left of. 1t had
cured in three hours.
Souders says the only way he can
sccount for the strange cure Is that the
Hood poisoning was scared out of
aim,
