Brisk skirmishing took place today between Indian Gap and Swatara Gap, the vicinity of Lickdale. Cavalry met cavalry as the 104th Regiment fought valiantly to hold the line of resistance pending arrival of additional Blue forces. Opposing the Central Pennsylvania cavalrymen is a Red infantry brigade of more than 5000 men. In advance of the infantry is a squadron of cavalry reconnoitering the country. The Reds are moving on the capital city.

Today's action found the Blue cavalrymen fighting a delaying ac tion against the Red cavalry, along the Blue Mountain between Indian town Gap and Swatara Gap. The Blue soldiers established points of resistance in successive stages, each designed to hold up the Reds five or six hours. Troops were deployed to harrass and pester the enemy, compelling him to make wide de tours. Bantering Around Fires Last night local troopers gatnered around bivouac fires to compare notes and relate humorous happen hiKs during the battle. Troops and of Harrisburg were acting as enemy, while Headquarters Troop and Cumberland Valley units were with the Blues.

This led to much good natured bantering, and jeering as prisoners were taken on both sides: Private Joseph "Muley" Bates, of Headquarters Troop, Harrisburg, was galloping back to the radio station with an important message. It was lonely country and his glimpses of friendly troops were only occasional. Suddenly he saw an enemy patrol which had filtered through to rear of the main body. He realized he was about to be captured. Eats the Message Recalling his oft repeated in' structions in such circumstances, Private Bates promptly ate the mes sage.

He masticated thoroughly and just as ne was caiiea upon to surrender he swallowed the last morsel (or was it fragment) of Form 103, standard signal type of field message blank. "Muley" later remarked it didn't taste so good. Sereeant Robert Keller, of Head' quarters Troop, who had been lent to tne enemy lor service as orjserver of intelligence (information concerning the enemy) was captured by members of his own troop who were serving with the Blue force This was particularly delightful to several of the sergeant's Difficult Task When the historic bugle call, "Boots and Saddles," is sounded it signifies the commander's orders for every trooper to saddle up and fall in formation," ready to move. The operation is not so simple. Shelter tents must be struck, blanket rolls made, other equipment attached to the saddle, and weapons placed in proper position.

Ammunition must be drawn and placed in belts. The entire camp area must be "policed up" on the theory that enemy scouts might look" at the refuse and gain valuable information. Local residents remarked that the' grove of trees used for a bivouac was left in tne best condition they can recall. The call freauently comes during the dark hours just before aawn, requiring the troops to do every' thine bv sense of touch and When the camp is situated in a dense woods this is not so easy. A saddle iuny pacicea weighs fifty to sixty pounds; this must be hoisted upon the horse's back and various straps secured.

Radio Men Busy Radio men of the regiment un der Lieutenant Charles H. Ken worthy have been rendering yeoman service, aside from battle activities. Captain Robert J. Krepps, of Lewistown, had occasion to execute a legal paper in a limited time and needed the offices of a notary public. Captain Clyde E.

Fisher, authorized to do such work, was in a distant camp. The radio contact between the two camps revealed that the captain did not carry his official seal when engaged on military operations, but he referred Captain Krepps to a nearby notary. First City Troop of Philadelphia is now encamped at Colebrook and the 104th has been maintaining contact oy radio, mis anords the regiment's only contact wiji. the world of business. Presence of snakes at the various camps prompted Major Edgar Everhart, the medical officer, to request a supply oi antb venom.

This was transmitted by radio and promptly carriea out. Anotner message called for anti tetanus serum, with similar result. Troopers Undaunted Heavy rains failed to dampen the ardor of the troopers, despite the fact one bivouac area was flooded to a depth of six inches. Great fires were built, clothine dried out, and makeshift shelters constructed. One troop showed its spirit by asking for the band to stage a parade.

The musicians gave an impromptu concert, nlav Ing in the dark from memory, troopers singing. A heavy bolt which struck near tne camp shocked several men. but none was affected seriously. All were on auty next day. Inherit Estate Three daughters, Mrs.
