(Special to The Citizen.)
The 13th regiment left Scranton
In three sections Monday. The 2d
section on which Company E travel
ed left Scranton at 9:45 p. m. and
arrived at Gettysburg at G:45 a. m.
Tuesday morning, everybody in good
spirits' but some tired after the long
ride. We found that the advance
detail had everything in good shape
for the company when they arrived.
The first thing in order was for the
men to get settled in their tents and
then breakfast was ready for them.
After mess the company was taken
out for a drill in the pitching of
shelter tents. In the afternoon there
was an hour of company drill and
at 5:30 we went out for regimental
dress parade.
The trip from Scranton to camp
was uneventful.
Privates Raymond Alberty and
Walter Glosenger were appointed
corporals just before the company
left Honesdale.
Some of the boys had mail wait
ing here for them when they ar
rived. ' Scrappy " Heft Is the ma3.-o: of
Co. E this year and he Is enjoying it
too.
July 25. Yesterday morning
started In bad for the boys; it start
ed to rain early. The first duty was
Inspection of companies In their com
pany streets; then the companies
marched away from camp, carrying
blanket rolls. We marched about a
mile into the country and turned In
to a large field and were Inspected
in the erection and striking of shel
ter tents. The boys got pretty wet.
That was all that Company E boys
did for the day except In the even
Ing at 5:30, the regimental guard
was taken from our company. Capt.
Kelley was officer of the day and
Lieut. Doney was officer of the
guard. Wilbur Bodie was chosen
as orderly to the Colonel at guard
mount last night.
The boys who wero not on guard
last night and to-day wero relieved
from duty and went over the battle
field to seo the sights.
Co. E boys have a very easy time
of it to date but expect to get some
hard work the last of the week.
The rookies, or new members of
tho company, who enlisted since last
camp, were initiated tonight after
mess by running through the pad
dling machine. Lots of fun for tho
old members.
Serg. Duano Faatz leaves camp to
morrow (Friday) morning for home
to look after his work with tho Elec
tric Light company. Berg. Boolhagen
will take his place for the rest of tho
camp.
Private Bodie was the only rookie
who didn't go through the paddling
machine; he didn't have the nerve.
Tho camp lies about one mile from
t'.e town of Gettysburg and tho
roads are very muddy from tho rain
of yesterday and tho consequence is
that visitors to the camp aro more
scarce this year than over before.
The health of tho company is very
good. Tho water down hero Is not
good. If you want a good drink you
have to go to some farm house
where there Is a spring.
To-night at moss tho men put up a
kick at the artlclo tho state com
missary was Issuing for "butter."
If It wasn't "oleo," then wo would
like to know what "oleo" is. Hardly
any of tho boys attempted to oat It.
To-night at the Y. M. C. A. a doc
tor from the 9th Regiment gavo a
lecture on tho "first aid to tho In
jured." It was vory Interesting.
Tho nights hero aro vory cool and
the boys who brought an extra blan
ket from homo wero wise.

Fashion Notes.
Ostrich feather plumage Is the
most highly favored hat trimming ot
the season.
Large shady lace and rose trim
med hats are worn with llncerlo
frocks.
Among a recent showine of taf
feta gowns one of short wedgewood
blue with an underdress of white
crepe do sole and trimmed with mel
low tinted lace was charming. With
it was worn a picture hat in black
trimmed with blue and white ostrich
feathers.
Shaded or two-itoned ostrich
plumes are much In existence this
season, the list Including French
gray, tipped with old blue, amber-
hued shading to apricot, green shad
ing to gold and sulphur colors tip
ped with rose.
The summer hat. is delightfully
simple. It Is either an enormous
flat arrangement in straw, with a lot
of low trimming of no particular Im
portance or a quaint Glrondln with a
sky-scraping aigrette.
At a Paris milliner s was shown
recently a charming hat said to be
a copy of one worn by Marie An
toinette in a certain portrait. The
full crown is of Ivory velvet with an
almost invisible brim, about which
is twisted a beautiful scarf of deep
toned old lace, and two exquisite os
trich plumes set upright at the right
side, one deep cream, the other old
gold.
Together with the felt hat a quan
tity of velvet for decorative purposes
is appearing in tho millinery realm.
Violet and navy bluo Is charming
ly combined in a simple hat of
violet straw lined with navy blue
One long pliable quill in violet, spot
ted with blue, forms the trimming
Another modish combination is
seen in a big sailor shape of canary
yellow with thick black silk cord,
and cockade to match, for decora
tion.
