' Perhaps the most interesting feature of the war to the average. reader are the camps which are now being formed composed of the troops that have seen service. , Of these camps, Camp Wyk- ofl.’ is" the" most interesting and the largest. The troops that have seen active service aroundSantiago are ar- riving there as fast as the transports can bring them from Cuba. "The Camp itself is situated in an ideal spot for suchapurpose._ It is at the eastern extremity of Long Island, on a point called Montauk, which breaks out into the Atlantic Ocean, and for a distance of about ten miles is a rolling country, entirely free from trees and covered with turf. A narrow strip of sand joins it to the mainland. This entire point has been given over to form a. camp for about 30,000 men. The hospital tents, the detention camps (where those suspected of contagious fever are confi ned,) and the headquar- ters of the difierent generals are all marked with appropriate flags, so that any one viewing. the place from the hills can point out the different parts of. the whole camp. Here day by day men are arriving from Cuba—men who have become fa- mous in the Santiag) campaign—and many of those we have been reading about from day to day may be seen riding or ‘Ilvalking about in their war- stained uniforms. One of the most picturesque and interesting sights was the landing, a of the famous First Volunteer Cavalry, knowu as the “Rough Riders,” and when they came through 'with Colonel Theodore Roosevelt at their head, and General Wheeler, the commander of the cavalry division, with them, the enthusiasm of those who were gathered there was extraordinary. The illustration which we' print this week, and which is reproduced in Harper’s Weekly, shows Colonel Roosevelt and General Wheeler at the 'head of their troops, being escorted by General Young, who was in command at Camp Wykofi at the time, to the particular hill where they have since formed their camp. ‘ Local Druggisls Dine.
