JUNE NIGHTS COLD FOR C.N..MEN Connecticut Soldiers Shiver in Their Tents at Fishers Island— Col. Dorsey Finds Employers Reluctant to Let Their Men Off For Camp Duty—Captain Tarbox Was Officer of the Day Wednesday. ———— The six companies of Connecticuc Coast artillery in camp at Fort H. G. Wright shivered in the cold Tuesday and Wednesday nights under canvas. The wind that swept over Block Islani sound penetrated tents and did mot warm up before it struck through ths heavy army blankets. The greeting Wednesday morning, exchanged be- tween tentmates, was “A ton of coal, please.” 5 ‘Aside from being shivery, the guardsmen are getting along well io | camp and Wednesday's warm sun set them to taking hold of the tasks cut out for them. They started on the bix gun drills, all of the details going o the batteries carly. The sub calibre practice will come on Friday and Sat- | urday and firing of service changws | will be_early next week. Col. Henry S. Dorsey of New Lon- don, commanding the camp, said Wed- nesday that the reluctance with ‘which employers allowed their men to go t0 2 | camp was threatening the success of | the tour of duty. Many men have been uneble to get off and the numerical | strength of‘cmpl.nlos in_camp has been reduced to a point where it has been necessary to “borrow” men from | 1 stronger companies to obtain th> necessary minimum of 41. Even the larger companies now have né men to spare. First and Tenth companies of 1 London, Thirteenth of Norwalk madc the Coast Ar remain in c until J The matter of a been dealt with this Dorsey with the idea of having effective guard without overburdening | the men. Onl; small guard is post- ed and the men walk posts only atf night. Capt. id Conner was offic of the day on Tuesd: Capt. Willlam G. Tarbox of Norwich was named for ‘Wednesday. The first da; o firs corps, in camp was spent in drawing rations, pitching tents and making quarters comfortable. The schedule of drills and study is ar- ranged so that the enlisted men get 2 good deal of time for recréation. There will be lectures nightly for the Connecticut officers r Owing to lack of funds of the state Y. M. C. A, ther will be no tent at the camp this year. On June 19 the western division of the corps will go into camp for ten day: PONTIAC \ b A mtatety, solemn Indian, close- ed in & most peaceful-looking et slouched into the court-yard the Detroit fort one spring day in 1%68. At his heels followed a throng | of saveges, each wearing the peace- blanket and carrying some article of male. A more harmless crowd of In- dians, spparemily, could not have been found in all America. 8o carefully were the blankets ar- ranged that the keenest eye could not have discovered the arsenal of yifies, knives and tomahawks that were hidden beneath their folds. The jeader of the supposedly peaceful vis- Stovs was Pontac, who was chief of ees northwestern tribes and one of e greatest Indians in all history. His was the plan for entering the Detroit stockade at the head of his.bravest men, disguising the whole party as a and of traders. Having entered the the blankets were to be cast aside, the gates thrown open to a body of hidden Indians, and the S noes *‘Emgtish garrison and sownsfolk massacred. A Massacre That Failed. But an Indian girl had whispered he secret to the commandant of the garrison.

We are continually hearing of the benefit that Peruna is in 4 rangements of the stomach. Grad- ually the stomach gets worse and worse untfl the victim finds himself or herself incapable of taking ordi- mary food. Mrs. Bauer's was such a case. We extract from one of her letters a brief statement of what she says about it: “I canmot praise your wonderful medicine, Peruna, enough. It has dcne much for me during the past ten years, and I keep it in the house continually. I was in such a condi- tion that I could eat nothing but bread and milk, and even that was too heavy for me at times. Now I can eat anything. “T will recommend Peruna to all my friends.” People who obfect to liquid medi- cines can now obtain Peruna Tablets.

Moles as Things of Beauty. With Turkish ladies moles on the face are considered a great beauty, the pretty theory being that love has kissed and left a spot, or that spirits whispering in the ear have left their lght touch on the cheek.
