FiSHER'S iSLAND, N. Y., July 23.
—The militia men arose lhis morn-
ing and peeping out of ilicir tents
failed to see the sun shining as has
been the custom every morning in
camp. Heavy clouds overhung the
sky and st 8 o'clock rain began to fall
which has kept up steadily ever since.
Some of the companies wore to finish
service and subcslibre practice this
morning. so as to have the afternoon
for regimental parade, one this is
known by the men as “Governor's
Day." as Governor Weeks and Adju-
tant General Cole arrived in camp st
10 o'clock to spend the day. After
that General Cole arrived in camp at
10 o'clock to spend the day. After
being received by the United States
odlcers and C. N. G. officers. the gov-
ernor was escorted through the reser-
vation. making a visit to each com-
pany street. much to the delight of
the men.
If the storm clears away this after-
noon, sll the companies. regulars and
militiamen will assemble on the pa-
rade grounds for parade and pass in
review before his excellency the gov-
ernor

if your heart duds its own in the car
The hum of her tank, like boots on a

Makes a sound that is sweet to hear,
And life is all right, but just hold on

And hark to the whirr of her gear.
