Advance Guard Getting Camp in
. Shape for the Thirteenth.
LACK OP COMPANY ' 11 INJURED
Threw Explosive Into a Fire Around
Which Companions Were Sitting.
Sustained Wounds About Eyes,
but They Are Sot Serious.
Special to the Scranton Tribune.
Mt. Qretna, Pa., July 19. Taken as a
whole the advance guard of the Thlr
teenth regiment was a great agsreRa
tlon of hustlers and the work they ac
compltehed In such a short time le the
proof of thv as-ertion. and yet, although
to the uninitiated wonderful things have
been accomplished, there is a groat deal
of dlssat Impaction In 4h camp, air.d this
la due to the fact that notwithstanding
the efforts that have tev?n put forth for
the accomplishment of a. desired object,
that object is not accomplished.
When the regiment arrives tomorrow
the members mill ilnd that prepara
tlor.s for tlwlr reception bwe not yet
been completed. This fact Is greatly
deplored by the members of the regi
ment who compose the advance guard
Weather Is Delightful.
The weather has fceen delightful and
If the lumber which was ordered In
Seratiton and which arrived late had
reached here earlier, a , pres-enta'ble
showing might have been made. As it
is, the majority will haw to work the
greater part of the night. The Thir
teenth are leasantly located, but with
the exception of the cavalry are the
farthest from the station, and It is not
likely that they will be bothered with
visitors.
What might have been a serious ac
cident occurred early this morning when
Corporal Lack, of Company B, threw a
phell in the fire around which several
soldiers were 'elating. The explosion
severely burned him about the eyes,
and several stitches were required to
dress his Injuries. Luckily his eye
sight s not Impaired. The feeling
against Corporal Lick was high for
some time. Major Barnard's manage
ment of the aiJvance detail has not en
deared him to the members of it.

Thirteenth at Wllkcs-Barra.
Special to the Scranton Tribune.
Wilkes-Barre, July 19. The train
wh the Thirteenth regiment on board
Is progressing rapidly. There are 124
men on board. Each company has its
full complement of men. Boys are all
enjoying themselves and well. There
have been no accidents. Train and quar
ters are very fine, and are under the
personal supervision of C. H. Keller
and W. L. Pryor, of Lehigh Valley
company. C. H. D.
DEPARTURE OF THE TROOPS.
Thirteenth Regiment Starts for the Camp
Ground M Mt. Gretna.
The Inevitable "The Girl I Left Be
hind Me," played by the drum corps,
which headed the regiment as it
marched down Lackawanna avenue
last night told the whole story of the
departure. ,
Fully nine-tenths of the large throng
which assembled to see the soldiers off
was of the female persuasion. A man
not In uniform was a nonentity In the
eyes of that throng, and well the soldier
boys deserved the attentions that were
bestowed upon them and the plaudits
that greeted them for they certainly
looked "stunning."
They left the armory at 8.30 and
marched direct to the cars, which were
backed in at the Delaware and Hudson
station. The boys, however, were In no
hurry to get aboard. They had last In
junctions to receive about writing every
day, and their had adleux to make, and
consequently they found the Interim
only too short between their arrival at
the cars and the departure of the trlan.
When the signal, "all aboard," was
given and the train started out, a
hearty cheer was given by the as
semblage which was returned by the
soldiers. Then followed waving of
hands and kerchiefs until the last car
was lost in the darkness and the 500
soldier lads departed from our midst
for seven days.-
By the appearance of the cars, the
preparations that were- going on and
the spirits of those aboard It would be
quite safe to Judge that there would
be some sleep lost during the night.
In fact it looked as if not one was giv
ing the matter of sleep any considera
tion whatever.
The Scranton papers' will be repre
sented at camp as follows: Truth,

dcrfully on It.
The hot weather puts a pressing ques
tion to every mother a question that
demands tin Immediate answer.
It Is impossible to postpone looking
the great problem: of 'Infant-feeding
fully in the face. .Has every precau
tion been taken to keep baby well dur
ing the summer? Is the baby running
any risk from cholrea infantum?
People have begun to learn that medi
cines for Infants are more sparingly
used In physicians' families than In any
others, and that the well-educated phy
sician, when the mother's milk for any
reason, is not sufficient, brings up his
own child on lactatcd food.
There ere no healthier or plumper
babies than those fed on lactated food.
Fewer cases of summer diarrhoea and
cholera Infantum occur In homes where
this superb nutriment Is employed than
In others. The most carefully, intelli
gently guarded children are those fed
on lactated food. Every Infant who is
not thriving, has poor color, or shows
small gains in weight and size, should
be given this perfect Infant food. It Is
relished by young children, and there Is
no difficulty In Inducing them to take
It In quantities sufficient to Insure their
growth and healthy condition. During
the exhaustive hot days of summer,
while teething and during the weaning
period, lactated food stands its best test
as an ideal infant food for all trying oc
casions. When for any reason the mother can
not nurse the child, or when her milk
Is Insufficient or poor In quality, the
best trained nurses use lactated food
at once. It is known to invariably
make firm flesh, a clear Ekln, bright
eyes, and to strengthen the body so
that diarrhoea, cholera Infantum and
exhausting summer sickness do not
easily gain a footing. And a great bless
ing It Is to countless humble homes that
for 23 cents a mother can buy a package
that contains enough to make 10 pints
of pure cooked food.
