SLEEPER Is Battle Scared
Among the numerous claims to DIS
motion put forth by Company l. is IN
act that II is travelling in a truly Dat
,l,.scsrs5 tourist sleeper. The car
vas h several bandit raids in Mexico
10 years ago, and four persons were
h.'ed IN Il an.
The battalion sdjutant of the Sd Bat
-a6on is First Lieutenant Millard r.
.Cook who. in point Of continuous ser
vice Is the Oldest man in the New
York Guard. He enlisted forty yesrs
ago I'm this same regiment, and De
.ember 6 celebrated his anniversary az
a dinner given by his fellow oileers.,
One Of the striking things about the
ia is the universal attitude of regard
On the part Of the men toward theit
5Ecers. It is an unwritten but strictly
,herished rule Of the regiment that all
Ulcers must come up from the RANKS.
This Is true Of the entire staff, except
Lieutenant Colonel Welsh, who was de-
allied from the regular army. Lieu
snspt Stevens is one Of several mem
srs Of the regiment who on his ar
dval is 10 see his child for the first
ne. The little lass was born WINE
Ter father was az Pharr.
Heat and Light Lacking
The regiment has suffered much in,
tryenience from insufficient heat ana
n. and water. At Ashtabula last
ght the situation became so acute
"A. Colonel Norton refused TO sur,
nitr his tickets until he received
rl,er, and finally agreed to wait Tor
ts other items until Buffalo was
aehed
Nothing. however, seems TO worry
1t men very much. A string orches-
"A anuses one car, the band another
zry individuals have musical instru-
rsrb, and then there is always the
great American game-not baseball
iiysd with q cent limit.
When officers are not around one
ray 90 through the train and hear
troopers pleading earnestly with a re-
zciisnt Phoebe" to show her face.
The frst case Of sickness Of the en-
ne trip occurred this morning, when
'nyste Mallard, Of the Hospital Corps
ps sent 10 ST. Mary's Hospital for
nor operation.
