When the plaintive notes of taps"
echoed over Camp Reyes, on Mon
day evening little tented city of
about 200 inhabitants, which had
sprung up there during the day.
quickly ceased it's activities and
within a few minutes the stamping
of horses, and the deep breathing
OF the men in the tents was the only
sound that might be heard. Tired
with the journey from their homes
10 this city and the work of making
camp. the members OF the 1o2nd
Field Artillery found little difficulty
in sleeping and many were already
asleep when taps was sounded.
The artillcrymen had an exceed
ingly strenuous day on Monday.
They had ridden upon the train all
night and arrived in this city about
eight o'clock. AS soon as they got
here the horses were unloaded and
the guns and caissons were hauled
to the camp. Then before the men
themselves could eat. it was necess-
airy to take care of their horses and
TO feed them. This is one of the
hard and fast rules in the artillery,
and is never suspended.
After the men had eaten break
fast they pitched their tents and did
many other tasks that were necess-
airy to make comfortable and san
itary camp in which they might pass
n two weeks period of training. The
hoyE were very much pleased that
they were able to start the camp
with a good meal. due to the fact
that the cooks came to this city last
Wednesday and built their cook hou-
ses and dining tents and had chow"
ready when the hungry troops ar
rived.
After the necessary work was
done the men had nothing further
TO do until stables" sounded in the
late afternoon. when it was again
necessary to look after the comfort
of their horses. A bail game be
tween the mon OF the medical de-
taChment and of Battery c. of Fort
Fairfield took place during the af-
tcrnoon and the docs won by a
score of . TO : in five innings. In
the evening large number of the
men looked the city over, to get a
line on the chances for enjoyment
