dena was arrested late this afternoon and
dispensing whisky on the camp grounds
in direct violation of the rules and of
General Order No. . issued by Command
er A. f. Dill. 1t is story of the inhu-
manity of man and woman's duplicity.
The Pasadonans are to be pitied in their
time of sore distress. At o'clock this
afternoon Commander A. f. Dill and
staff assembled at the headquarters on
Lincoln Circle and proceeded on tour of
investigation around the camp. 1t was
Pasadena day, and the ladies of the Re-
lief corps were holding reception in
one of the tents. They were serving
lemon punch. bat as the Pasadcnans are
abstemious, their punch contained no
liquor. at least that was the supposition.
but. alas it was false. When the inspec.
tion party reached the tent one of the la
dies with sweet smile, born of inno-
cence and implicit faith, gracefully
handed the grizzled commander glass
containing a brownish fluid with split
strawberries floating in 1t. With Chester.
feldian grace. Dill lifted the glass to his
lips and slipped of the contents, and q
look of ineffa BILE scorn crossed his mobile
countenance. It's whisky" was the sem
tentous and sad remark that emanated
from his lips. Then, with the harshness
and brevlty which characterized his Is
suance of orders when he trod the deck
of a -of-war. he said to the adjutant:
prefer charges against everyone and
have them removed to a dungeon CELL"
The ladies were crestfallen, and in palli-
alton of their offense declared that some
horrid man was responsible for the affair.
To the tune of the Rogue's March, played
by the camp band, the orders Of the COM
manoer were carried out, and they will
all be tried by drumhead courtmartial in
the morning. The band will play,
They're Hanging Danny Deren in the
Morning. The occasion will be one of
great solemnity. Late this afternoon
the ladies were vindicated of the
charge by chivalrous comrade who con.
fessed that it was q joke perpetated by
the men of John f. Godfrey post. This
will not save them from cOurtmartiai,
however.
The boom of the sunrise gun awoke
everyone in camp from peaceful slumbers
this morning and soon all were preparing
breakfast. Suspended on andirons in
front of every tent was huge coffee pot
from which came the savory odor OF
coffee and the air was redolent with the
fumes from the frying ham and eggs.
The first event OF the morning was the
full dress guard mount which was held
at 8 O'Clock in honor of Pasadena day. H.
II. Massey of John +. Godfrey post was
appointed officer of the day and AL.
Petrie of the same post was made officer
of the guard. The entire guard was fur
nished by Godfrey post. One OF the fea-
lures OF the guard mount was an exciting
chase in which Adjutant Henry Roach
was tho pursued ana two sentIies we're
the pursuers. The adjUtant was guilty
of gross violation of .he rules. He at
tended guard mount in "hay-seed" hat
which being translated means "a straw
hat. When his head gear was noticed
orders were imm mediateIy given to have
him arrested. The sentries started after
him at full tilt. TIE chase lasted half an
hour and over a mile was covered when
ono of the sentries begged to exchange
places with the adjutant saying that he
was winded and would rather be pris-
oner than pursuYer. Tho adjutant sur
rendered and will be court-martialed in
the morning.
The folIowing signs were posted in
prominent places today by some facet
ious but illiterate camper. Diligent
seach failed to locate him and circular
has been issued. This one is in front of
the surgeons tent:
