GRAPHIC DESCRIPTION
OF SOUTHERN TRIP
George Manning Tells Very Clearly Of
His Trip on a Troop Train to
Southern Encampment.


was awakened at 2 a. m. on June
10. We took everything we had and
went over to the orderly room and
there we waited until 4 p. m. Our
baggage was carried to the station for
us with the understanding that we
could get Jul hand bags there,-when
we got there. But when we got there
u barracks bags and hand bags were
gone. We arrived at the station at
4.1O p. m. and the train left immediate
ly. We reached Philadelphia at $50
p. M, changed engines and continued.
We arrived at Wilmington, Del, at
$50 p. m. There the Red Cross treat
ed us to candy, cigars, cigarettes and
Post Cards. We then continued on to
Elkton, arriving at $50 o'clock. On
the way We had our supper of corn
beef, canned tomatoes and hard tack.
Without mentioning it again, that is
what we had for each meal on the
trip. We arrived at Baltimore at 1880
p. m, passed thru the town in the
tunnel and saw but very little. We ar
rived at Washington, D. c., at lilo p.
M. While we changed engines, the
Red Cross fed us coffee and dough-
nuts, and all we wanted. We left
there at 1890 a. NJ, June goth, and did
not sleep the whole night. We rode
steady until we got to Richmond, Va,
at $50 a. m, where we changed en-
gines. The speed limit for troop
trains from there on was 80 miles an
hour, but we only travelled 20 and %
miles per hour. While there, the
troop trains from Admission, Ala, pull
ed in. Biggs, Dawson and Randolph
Leeds were on it. We left Richmond
at 7.15 a. m. We reached Petersburg,
Va, at 7.45, but did not stop. Is miles
South of Petersburg we saw the first
fields of cotton and tobacco. The
main crops from there on were cotton,
tobacco and corn. Practically no 9TH
er vegetables were seen in the rest of
Virginia. We arrived at Norlina, N.
c., at 1925 a. M, where the Red Cross
treated us to coffee, sandwiches, ciga-
rettes and postal cards. We continu-
ed to Raleigh, where the Red Cross
treated us to candy, cigarettes and
post cards. There we got out and
sang for the Red Cross ladies while
the engines were changed. We left
there at 1880. The crops as usual
were tobacco, cotton and corn, but the
farms were much larger. The cotton
plants were only about 6 inches high.
The country thru here was very billy.
We did not see any mountains, but
much low and swampy country. The
people in this state and on farther
South interested us very much, the
colored people and the whites having
the same dialect. One little town in
particular where we stopped to get
water, we had a lot of fun with the
people. The place was called Sanford
and the main occupation of the people
was, doing nothing. We reached Ham,
let, N. c., at 7.30 p. m. Here the Red
Cross treated us fine. We had all the
coffee we could drink. | went over to
the Red Cross headquarters and there
met some ladies who had been to At
lantic City several times. They gave
me chewing gum, ice water and all the
nosta1s 7 wanted The ladies were

OF A VISIT TO
BRONX PARK zoo
J. Norman Shinn Thinks Noah Mus
Have Had Some Job Slowing
Animals Away in the Ark.
DRAWS SOME CONCLUSIONS

Soon after we entered the Bronx
Park Zoo we began to think of what a
strange cargo Noah had in the Ark
and what a tedious task he must have
had to get all the creatures slowed
away comfortably for the voyage. He
must have been a capable man, with
lots Of patience. Of course elephants
and squirrels wouldn't be so bad for
room-mates, but foxes and quail. or
crows and mice would be a bad mix
ture; and think of what a racket
there would be if the parrots and mon
keys had the same apartment.
The animals did not seem to be at
all worried about the war or the high
cost of living. They were all prison
ers of war, interned by their common
enemy, man.
The birds and animals in the cages
were indeed a strange, assorted lot,
but the animals looking at the cages
were stranger and more assorted. We
observe that the Gagged and uncaged
animals are very much alike in their
actions and some writer has remarked
that men, like other animals, will eth
er run, fight or hide.
The monkeys, with their continual
chatter and play, We're very interest
ing but would soon get tiresome just
as the people do who seem to have no
more serious object in life than to
play and chatter. Quite a contrast be-
tween the monkeys and beavers, who,
like some people, find their greatest
pleasure in working night and day.
Others, like the owls, stay out all
night, but they are not as wise as
owls are said to be.
The rhineoscerous Cor something
like that) surely is an immense, clum-
sy fellow who looks as if his clothes
needed pressing, as his coat is so bad
ly wrinkled; however, like some folks
we admire, his hide is so thick that
attacks which would greatly injure
some small, t~hin-skinned animal, does
not annoy him at all.
The foxes are dressed in fine clothes
and are pretty to look at, but they do
not make an honest living, existing
mostly by methods which do not ap-
peal to a conscientious man; but the
foxes are so slick and clever that they
q rn cn16nf11 rnna ~ Thaf- hAI -.4
and are hard to catch.
The deer are also pretty, but very
shy and bashful, like some lovely,
modest, sensitive maidens who are as
| gentle as the deer become when treat
ed with kindness and not frightened.
The bears are big, strong fellows
of the fighting class. He is no coward
but has a bad habit of growing when
things don't suit him and some IN
Gagged animals have the same habit.
The bear has another habit of hug
ging, for which we rather like him if
he uses discretion as to time, place
and object in the hugging business.
The leopards are graceful, strong
and are in a way pretty, but their
spotted appearance made us feel un
comfortable by reminding us of the
spotted characters of some uncaged
animals, so we passed on to look at
the birds. Here We were again re-
minded of uncaged birds by looking at
the Gagged ones; some are happy and

MILITARY POLICE
LEAVE FOR CAMP

Genuine regret is being felt by the
hundreds of friends of Corporal Cain and
Private Louie Bonn of the local detach-
ment of military police. over the an
nouncement received yesterday that they
will report at camp today. Both of the
boys left this morning at 12:45 O'CLOCK
over the Southern for Admission,
1t is not because the boys have failed
to make good that they are being re-
called, but rather because they nave
made good to such an extent that there
is little further use for their services
in this city, Very few slackers, de-
serters or men absent without leave have
escaped their vigilance.
Every member of the police department
openly expressed regret yesterday wnen
formed of the receipt of the orders
The entire detachment for obvious rea-
sons, has been thrown in intimate con-
tact with the city forces, and it appears
that the intimacy has only strengthened
the feeling of friendship and respect
of each for the other.
