Sometimes it happens thatt the glass cannot be so placed as to reflect the rays of the sun , In this case another iass Is set up , which Iiahes tiio light upon the first one , and the blinding flash whthhltieoii across the iiv is but a reflection.

This lie found Impracticable , bemuse the shallowness of the surrounding water obilge4 them to wade aali ro and the dense mangrove growth prevehtd them from movIng - Ing about on.the islands , The present sys- tern of practice is , however , very antis- factory. ' ' The men knock'ott atlro'clock , eat their lunch anti rest until t. 'l'hen they practice again from 1 till 3 , when , they return to camp. The only other events of their day are dinner at 5 , retreat rotl call at 6 and guard mount at 6:05 : , There Is a guard tie. tailed day anti night to keep watch over the mules and horses corrait (1 hear by. All ( ho members of the corps are mounted and a large number of mules are required to carry the apparatus ofthe , , field telegraph. 'VIte Flelil Telegrab , ) . . The field talegraph Is , perhsps , the most important work of the corps.

The field ciegraphcnn be set up In an Incredibly short time. In ordinary field carry the heavy carts , when perhaps both carts and muleit have been abandoned or left in the .rcar. Thd 'thitpost cable car" is then used. It Is a little car made of steel , with four wheei& , .vhich have rubber cushion tires. On the cart are four reels of wire anti telegraph and 'telephone recctvlng and sending apparatus.- Besides those there is a kit or knapsack containing a fifth reel. This kit is used as a l strosohr'ce , when even the outpoat cable car has been abandoned. Time cable car wire' is af7aiiged for telephone as vehi as telegraph. itia thoroughly Insulated anti merely laid along the ground. Old Mother Earth is called into play to complete the circuit.

Tiiero Is one other methed of observation and signaling which cornea within the province of the signal corps. This is the work which may be accomplished by the use ot balloons. Three large ones have been made for time corps and shipped to either Tanmpa or ICoy West-but. they will probably not be Inmi , Iii , operation oven for practice until the campaign starts in. The balloons will be.infiated with Iydrogen , not gas. The corps has its own apparatus for the mnanu- facture of this ! Thu balloon Is always lietd by what Is called a 'captive rope , " This rope encloses a' telephone wire , so that there is comistaumt communication between the 0111cc ! in ( lie balloon and those on tIie ground.
