"SUM HIKE" SOL
DER BOY SAYS
Men Thankful To Be Back At
Deming
Deming, n. NJ, Nov. 10, l9l

Deming, n. NJ, Nov. 10, 1916.
Dear Del:
suppose you read that story in
Golfers Magazine about the 69th
New York. The Big Hike" Wei,
beau, that "ain't nuthin" compared
with the one we took last week; it
was sum hike"
We left here on Thursday morn
ing, November 8th, for Fort Bay
ard, n. NJ. We comprised the
Fourth Provisional Brigade which
consists of the First and Second
Arkansas, First Wyoming, ". S.
Field Hospital, and the First Della
ware, totaling $500 men in all.
The whole Brigade when spread
out in marching formation was
three miles in length. Of course
the wagon trains and all equip
ment went along. We started out
under heavy marching order which
weighs sixty pounds. The first
day we liked twenty miles to a
place called Jacobson's Ranch.
Our course took us out over the
old Santa Fe Trail which runs
northwest from Deming to Silver
Cts. On our way to the first
days stopping place we halted for
rest at Haywood Springs. By the
way. it is a hot springs, too. Hot
water bubbles out continually.
We all experienced drink of it.
There is a large adobe hotel there
where we were told "The Cincin-
natl Reds" baseball team trained
last spring. We were about all in
by the time we reached the ranch
With supper in view it wasn't long
before we had our pup" tents up
and ready for the night. Maybe
that ground wasn't hard! II
wasn't nearly so hard, though, as
what was to follow. The next
DAYS hike took us to place calico
Apache Tejo, pronounced, lay
ho). A ranchman told US thai
many of the Triangle movie com
pany's western pictures were takel
here. The place is about six miles
south of Hurley, a small toWl
where the Chino-Copper Com
pany's reduction plant is located
BY the next day we began to fee
the change in elevation, and als'
the weight of our packs. Hurle.
is about 5000 feet above sea level
so climbing the "hills" began t.
get our wind. We passed through
Hurley and proceeded or our wa
to Fort Bayard. We arrived ther
on Saturday. November IL, a
about one p. m. after fifteen-mll
up hill hike from Apache TeJo.
You know Fort Bayard IS
government hospital for men fror
the United States Army. Ire

time night came it began to get
cold. We were each supplied with
two blankets which are hardly
enough at that altitude when the
thermometer drops to or 5 above
zero, which it did that night. Sew
eral of us got frosted noses and
we all feel lucky that we lived
through it. One Arkansan did die,
we didn't know exactly what of,
and this did not raise our spirits
any. They by Wednesday morn
ing were about 20 degrees below
zero. A military funeral, when
one is on a big hike, isn't any too
pleasant to witness. Taps are
dreary anyhow, and when sounded
over a coffin draped with the Old
Flag they are drearier yet. We
broke camp that morning with the
intention of hiking on to Silver
City, but there proved to be so
many men with colds that when
sick call sounded and the Colonel
saw the condition of things, orders
were changed and we proceeded
instead to Deming. The hike up to
the Fort was a forced march, but
four days we made the trip in
four days without mishap, except
for sore feet, sore backs, and a
hungry feeling which we soon
satisfied when we hit Deming.
At Fort Bayard there were
about 100 men who had deserted.
Not one man deserted from the
Delawares, and best of all not a
single man from Company CO. fell
out during the whole ten days.
Some record, we think. But
while up in the mountains we all
felt about like one of the fellows
did on pay day night. He came
into camp and Topped down on his
bunk and moaned, 1--WE got the
Inconsistencies blues and I've box
cars on my mind" The side-door
Pullmans would have looked good
to any of us about then. But after
this hike and the election are al
over and we are still safe anC
sound, we feel rather glad that we
have had the chance of experience
ing the alluring something differ
ent." We shall always remember
the hike and the election. Some
close wasn't it? This section
about here is hot Democratic ant
| guess other places had little o.
the same spirit. The way we fee
about it is expressed in the shor
bit someone made up when feeling
a bit poetical:
when we get back from Mexico,
When we get back from war,
The national guard can do yer,
we'll
Well never enlist any more.
Well take a bath and change gu
clothes
And then We'll praise the Lord,
Well hop into a jitney bus
And vote for Henry Ford"

have five buildings there and all
the modern conveniences. There
are several hundred patients.
Most Of them have their beds out
on great porches surrounding the
buildings.
After we had pitched camp and
gotten everything pretty we'll set
tied, bunch Of us beat it into Fort
Bayard and to one Of the wards
where we got a fine hot shower,
which made us feel like new fell
lows and which took away some Of
the bruises from sleeping on the
hard ground. We were given the
whole Of Sunday to rest. A crowd
of us, headed by top" Shelly,
took a walk up through the town
water had been a scarce article on
our way up. The stuff in this
country is only for internal and
not for external use we have
found as it is so scarce, so the
sigh of a small stream looked good
to US. The valley around about
Fort Bayard is used in growing
vegetables, etc, for the patients
in the hospital. While down in
there it reminded one of the farm
ing land north of Newark. 1t look
ed good, / tell you. AS we were
passing a house in the valley a
lady called to us and gave us bag
of big yellow apples which were a
treat, certain. On our way back
to camp we passed the government
dairy farm where there were about
100 head of pure-bred Holsteins.
Of course, owing to the hospital
all food has to be the best. " :
enjoyed some of it too, while we
were there,
On Monday morning we took a
short practise hike to keep in
trim. In the afternoon about two
o'clock we were ordered to break
camp and make ready for an over
night maneuver. We went under
double heavy marching order. We
carried two blankets, our tent
poncho, and clothes, on our backs
and also two days rations in oul
haverSacks, and our side arms anC
rifles on our shoulders We hac
some load. We hiked seven mile!
to Hanover, a place within mile
or two of Santa Rita, where thu
Chino Copper Company's mines
are. AS soon as we had pitched
camp several of us beat it TO
Santa Rita. We had no soone
, gotten settled comfortably in tn
: movies than in came the Proves
Guard from camp and ordered u
, back. We enjoyed a feed, how
4 ever, before leaving town. Tha
Y night some of us slept and som
e tried to sleep, experienced tn
t novelty of sleeping on rocks o
e copper. The whole mountain-sid
is composed of copper. After
a restless night and after cookin

HAUBER THEATRE.

Monday-"The End of the Rain
bow" A story of the great lumber
country Of the West. Four weeks of
work at $50 a. m.; near escape OF
the director and camera-man from
death when two-thousand-year-old
tree was felled for the picture; and
the serious, possibly permanent i'll
ness of the leading lady, were the
principal incidents in the making OF
the Bluebird photoplay, "The End OF
the Rainbow" by Director Lynn Rey-
nolds, in which Myrtle Gonzales and
Val Paul are starred. The company
was taken to Hume, in the redwood
country. They had to rise at the UNI
earthly hour of $50 to catch the onlv
trolley up the mountain to location
They had to hang on for dear life in
the thousand and one curves as Slid
ing off the seat meant a drop in some
places of 1000 feet A thrill OF the
production was the telling of giant
Sequoia, the Oldest living thing in the
world, and the director and camera
man naturally wished to get gooc
view of it. There was no way O
estimating accurately the height q
the tree, so they took up their position
at the top OF a neighboring tree, in :
sort Of crows nest. to film the descent
as the trunk fell toward them. They
thought themselves outside the DANGER
zone. but the tree came so close tina

MEXICO WATCHES
GERMAN TROUBLE
Think Breach of Diplomatic
Relations With Germany
Would End Expedition.

No word has been received up 60 noon
Wednesday by Gen. Gsvirs TO indicate
that there have been any new develop
ments in the alleged death Of villa or
the recovery OF his body a. San Fran
cisco de Boria-
The Mexican authorities are being
considerably influenced in their DELHI
erations by the pending crisis between
the United States and Germany. The
Mexican authorities have expressed
themselves as believing that any sever
ance Of diplomatic relations with the
German empire would automatically
conclude the work of the expedition.
one Of the messages which passed be-
tween Juarez and Chihuahua recently
was that the relations between the
United States and Germany have not
reached tha breakin gpoint, unfortu-
nate enough for us"
Even the news of the alleged finding
o. the body of Villa has dwindled into
a small thin geompared with the newer
Developments at Washington and more
eaRerness is being expressed by the
Constituuonalist authorities upon what
is happening between the United States
and Germany than whether Col. Carlos
Carranza and Cen. Cavazos have dis
covered. the viva body.
