KENNEDY DANIELSON Undertaker and Embalmer Special Atte~tion to Every Detail. __ Fort Wright. Saturday, vt will return here tomorrow afternoon after a stay of ten days at Fishers Is- land. The camp this vear is charac- terized by both experienced officers and men as a peculiar one—as a camp In which there has been much lack of enthusiasm because of the uncertain- ty over the disposition of the corps as a fighting unit of the state of Con- necticut. ‘While other Connecticut troops have been mobilized and rushed south to the Mexican border the members of the coast guard companies have been grouped only for their usual ten days’ stay at Fort Wright. They have lis- tened to rumor after rumor of what chances, they might expect of getting regular active service; and the effect, combined with the paramount desire of the majority of the men to go to the front, has had the effect, on the word of a number of officers, of greatly lessening their interest in their ar- tillery work. Uncertainty as to what is to be done with the corps keeps the men guessing and figuring. The way they feel .about it is summed up in the re- mark of one officer—“If they are go- ing to send us south, why not do it now? We are here, ‘assembled, equip- ped and ready to start on an hour's notice. It would be much easier for all of us to go direct to the border than- it will be if we are sent back to our home stations, only to be called out again in a short time—easier in many ways.” The Thirteenth company. has been showing its efficiency this week in handling the big coast defence guns. It is something of a revelation for the Danielson friends who have visited the soldiers to see the manner in which the company members operate the big rifles. What the boys of the Thir- teenth are capable of in this line is neither generally known nor appre- ciated here at home, more's the pity. Working under the scientific methods employed they pop away at targets far out on the water with a degree of accuraey surpassed by no company in the corps, and equalled by few. They shoot altogether too well for the comfort and wellbeing of any person who might consider it good sport to be aboard a vessel on which they were laying range. ADDRESS BY DR.
