SOLDIERS UNIFORMED
TO EXHIBIT SUNDAY AT CIIAJ'
TAUQUA GROU NDS-GuARD
MOUNT CEREMONY.

The men in barracks received their
uniforms and shoes this forenoon.
and they are unpaeking them and fit
ting them this afternoon. The uni
form is the ordinary army uniform
and requires no description. But
Capt. Linstad was enthusiastic over
the quality and appearance of the
shoes. This will aid materially in
the comfort and appearance of the
company.
1t Is purposed TO have the men give
an exhibition drill at the chautauqua
grounds on Red Cross Sunday If room
can be found for their evOlutions. II
is settled. however. that they will
have the most formal service Incl
dent TO army life-that of guard
mount. This will follow Immediately
the afternoon program, and be car
ried out with full ceremony and pan
oply of war.
This ceremony of guard mount, be
il remembered. is the most solemn
and formal maneuyer known to army
life. Ii is the selection of those men
to whom the safety of the whole
camp is entrusted during the hours
of darkness and rest. They are Sc
lected because Of their fitness and
freedom from fatigue, and are rigor-
ously inspected as to physical fitness,
and completeness and condition of
equipment. 1t is the same ceremony
used in the army of the United States
when George Washington left it. and
which has been continued without
modification to the present day so
perfect was his development of this
formal detail. II is we'll worth any
trouble to witness il at least nee.

SUMNER STORM


Between $3.50 and 10 O'Clock last
evening black clouds came up rapidly
from the northwest and precipitated
upon this vicinity the heaviest rain
storm of the season. The fall is vari-
ously estimated from an inch to an
inch and a half. AT the beginning
Of the storm wind blew sufficiently
strong TO break limbs from a humber
Of shade trees about the city. but no
other damage from that source is re-
ported.
The electric display was brilliant
and the peals of thunder We're akin
to an artillery b~ombardment so far
as noise making was concerned, but
fortunately minus destruction to life
or property. The city electric light
system came in for perhaps the usual
amount of inconvenience in an cleo
trio storm. In several instances pri-
mary connections were broken,
among the points enumerated by
Supt. Rafferty, being Union enu s,
Fourth street 81. First street NE,
Washington avenue N. Several trans
former fuses were burned out. Aside
from a few times 'dousing of the
glim.' and a few moments darkness
at intervals at the picture theaters
during the storm. the service during
the night was not interrupted.
Owing to streets being tOrn up on
account of paving work. the flow Of
water was interrupted at different
points along Egan avenue, at several
points inundating sidewalks. but no
material damage resulted.
The storm seems to have been in
a measure local. Trainmen from the
north arriving this morning state
that the rainfall was heavy along the
line north to Bristol, with hail in the
vicinity of Irwin. Conductor Lawler,
Of the west train, did not find any
evidence of rain from Washington
Springs until he reached Roswell.
The storm did not extend south or
east to any distance. Madison seem

BUSY AT Fl. RILEY
THEIR TIME Is so TAKEN THEY
CAN'T FIND TIME TO WRITE
HARD WORK.

The following are extracts from a
letter received by Charles Singer, of
934 Harth avenue, from his son-in-
law. DIR. Frederick o. Kaps, who is i'm
training at Fort Riley, Kan, in the
medical officers training camp por-
ton OF the training offered there.
This letter bears out the statements
Of others to the effect that the work
they give the men in these camps is
strenuous and exacting:
I'm at Riley now, one of the hot
test places | ever was in. We take
training here for three months.
There are 1000 troops here and
about 500 doctors. and the work in
the hot sun is going to be very Sc
we're, so the men that have been here
some time tell us. There are not
many trees here, just in spots, most
ly stone and sand. Most of the doc
tors are older than | am, some are SIS.
we live in long barracks, 100 in
each building, and all sleep on cots,
just room enough between them to
crawl in bed. Our food is very good.
We get up at 5 a.. m, drill and work
at something all day, then study till
10 at night, so you see we have very
little idle time. | have been vac
