Rockies Make l"ysical Gain.

The students have achieved more
than one beneficial result from the
training. They are getting into a
physical co dition tat few Of them
have enjoyed since their college days.
"The waist lines are of a different
size than they were on Tuesday
morning" said General Wood. at
is a military change of front"
Even men of slight frame are show
ing evidences of the training. But,
while even Mayor Mitchell, Of New
York, is being worked into unusual
trimness, il is in the cases of men
like Boeuf Wheeler, Ehinelander
Waldo, Crawford Blagden and Nelson
O'ShauChnessey that the effects Of
the work and instruction are plainest.
The Mayor Is so rapidly slipping
into the scheme of things and is do
ing so uniformly what everybody else
l. doing that he no longer stands out
with the prominence that attended
his movements for the first day or so.
And that Is a situation that he
particularly enjoys here. No longer
is he pointed out TO the newcomers
by the men who have been here since
Tuesday.
For that reason it is difficult to dwell
on anytime he did to-day that other
persons did not do. He had his now
usual session of cavalry drill for an
hour and a half and his afternoon
swim. lie has not permitted himself
TO be annoyed by the prospect Of beng
summoned back 70 the City Hall before
his time here is up. If he is called
back 10 New York he viii clean up
quickly whatever he is called on TO do
and will then return to Plattsburg.
To-day Captain 7. +. Darby, NJ. D.,
camp surgeon, Will innoculate those Of
the men who are willing against ty-
phoid and smallpox.
General Wood will leave here to-
morrow for Tobyhanna, Penn, where
the artillery training camp is situated.
He will get back here on Tuesday after
noon. prepared to welcome the first Of
the prominent men he has invited TO
the camp. He believes that none OF
them will get here before then. About
this time the work of the aviation squad
will be mapped out for the hike. The
aeroplane Of ?. G. Millman, who IS in
camp. arrived here to-day 1t is still
boxed up, but will be dragged out to-
morrow.
The men to-day did exceptionally well
in sub-calibre practice. Several marks
men got perfect scores.
Richard Harding Davis, formerly OF
the staff Of The Tribune, reached camp
to-day, and, though he has seen more
war than any person here. except Cen
eral Wood, he was placed in the awk-
ward squad. S. Stanwood Menken,
presi,Snt Of the National Security
League; Travis Ii. Whitney. secretary

While it Is not likely that many of
them care 20 spend their nights here
under canvas, the uupreparedness OF
the hotels in the vicinity every one
within five miles is crowded beyond
comfortable capacity will make it i'm
possible for the visitors. who want to
be within a reasonable distance Of the
camp, TO study the situation unless
they do take tent quarters.
Furthermore, in the last week Of the
period set Tor instruction the men wl4I
be engaged in hiking, so that It Will be
next to impossible for visitors 10 ind
convenient tent commOdatiOns.
General Wood, whose enthusiasm in
the instruction developments increases
daily, is strongly interested in the sug-
gestion that the men now in camp march
through Fifth Avenue when the four
weeks in this section have expired. Ihe
general believes that the purpose Of
this work could not be better served
in climax, and he favors striking camp
here on September 3. and bringing the
rockies 70 New York by train. Accord
ing to his plan they would march in
uniform from the Grand Central Sta
tion to the Battery, ending the trip 81
Governors Island, where all the ord
nance material would be turned in.
The progress here in four days was
made convincingly clear this afternoon
by the close order drill Of 1000 Of the
1900 men. The two regular army Off
GERS in charge of each company had
practically no fault to find with their
students.
After the retreat call had been trum-
peted at . O'Clock this afternoon, and
the rockies were marched to the I'M
even parade ground it would have been
difficult for a person who was not OBJ
serving closely to point out that these
were not regulars. Only infrequently
did few f the men lose step and
position in swinging from one forma-
ton to another, and the rifles were
brought to attention and dropped at
rest with precision that excited happy
comment from officers Of the regular
army who with critical eyes watched
on the side lines.
