Miles to Shoot a Woman

land, woman barber in this city, was shot
and seriously wounded by John Knott. a
private in Company D, Seventh Illinois In
tantry. Knott fired three times at the
woman, and each shot struck her in the hip.
The murderous assault will not prove fatal
although Knott admits he shot al her heart.
The woman is now at the Minneapolis city
hospital, while Knott occupies cell at the
Minneapolis central police station. The
shooting had been planned, and Knott trav-
eled 1900 miles to accomplish his purpose.
Miss Oakland is employed at barber shop
In this city. Knott arrived In the city di-
rect from Camp Alger, Virginia, where his
regiment is located. Calling at the barber
shop, he stepped up to Miss Oakland, ad-
dressed her by her name and asked her to
shave him. She refused. They talked for
a few minutes, when he suddenly drew re-
volver and before any one could interfere
he had fired three times at the woman
Knott gave himself up to the police. Knott
says that he became engaged to the girl in
Chicago but after he went to Camp Alger
she wrote him cruel letter. breaking the
engagement. He said II she died he would
soon follow her.
A dispatch received from Camp Alger.
Virginia, says that Private John Knott,
Company D. has overstaid brief leave three
DAYS. A description of the missing man,
naming him as deserter, has been sent to
the police in all nearby cities.

How mitch property man will leave
when he dies depends largely upon his
health. The man who suffers from ILL
health stands little show of being sue
cessful business man. The man who c6I1es
to his desk in the morning with head
ache, who suffers all day from dullness and
drowsiness, who goes to his meals without
an appetite and tosscs restlessly through
the night without sleep, is not likely to
leave competence for his widow and Or
phans. Success is even more dependent
upon health than upon ability
Few men realize these truths. They
think that everything can be accomplished
by work, and that health is a secondary
consideration. Work is useless unless it Is
good work, and good work is never done
save by thoroughly healthy man. DR..

SKATERS ARMY
Extraordinary Precautions Taken for
It's Safe Landing

WASHINGTON, June 1S-For the mo-
ment the landing Of General Skaters army
of invasion on Cuban soil is the subject Of
interest in army and navy circles. Despite
conflicting reports 1t is stated with definite
ness by the officials that the big transport
procession has moved eastward around
Cape Maysi, and not by the western route
around Point Antonio. The route taken is
expected to bring the troops to the place
of debarkation by tomorrow unless some
unforeseen delay has occurred and the ar
rival may be before that
How the troops will land, whether under
fire from the Spanards or uninterruptedly,
is the chief topic of speculation among mill
tary men. Some of the officers who have
just come from Tampa and are familiar
with General Skaters plan say that prepa-
rations have been made to meet either con-
tingency, peaceful landing or one under
fire. In case of landing under fire, con-
siderable dependence will be placed upon
Generals Garcia and Rabi.
The specific instructions sent by General
Miles to Garcia covered in detail the landing
of the American forces. Garcia was to
harass and engage the Spanish bands and
see that re-enforcements were not sent to
Santiago and the points where the Ameri-
can troops will land Another important
point in General Miles orders is to gain
possession of suitable points around the
landing on which artillery may be placed.
The ordnance will be debarked soon after
the landing, in order to give adequate pro-
lection to the troops If such necessity should
arrive. The landing proper. 1t is calculated,
will take at least ten or twelve hours after
the army engineers have done their work.
This work of the engineers will come
first, and will consist in putting together an
elaborate pontoon bridge, much more elab-
crate than that usually employed for the
crossing of rivers. Officers who took part
in the departure of General Skaters forces
say everything was calculated to facilitate
the debarkation. The arrangement of divi-
sions and of individual ships in the divisions
was made with special reference to keep
ing regiments together and getting supplies
to them when the landing was made. When
part of regiment is on one ship, the other
part will follow on the next ship. The sup
plies and pack trains are also as near as
possible to the troops requiring them. The
officials have not even omitted to calculate
on failure to work the pontoon pier, and
they are prepared for ls ndlng through the
surf If need be, although this is not antici-
pated. The beach is low and sandy, shall
low far out, and is therefore well calculated
for such landing.

A COUNCIL OF WAR
Heads of the Departments Meet and
Consult

WASHINGTON. June 1S.-(Special to
Herald.) The second American council of
war was held today at the White House and
it was decided to push the Porto Rican ex-
pedition to the utmost, to seize all the chief
points in the eastern end of Cuba, to pour
into Cuba an army of 100000 troops and to
issue third call for volunteers and to be
in readiness to reinforce Shafter
The investment of Havana as forecasted
in the dispatches, will be postponed until
fall, and the council Of war expressed the
opinion without a dissenting voice that
100000 men will be required in Cuba before
the end of the siege. At least 10O, 900 men.
it is estimated, will be required for Havana
alone. AS result of the conference, It is
stated positively by persons high in author
ity, that the expedition to Porto Rico could
not possibly sail in less than two weeks.

GEORGIA BOYS IN CAMP
Chickamauga Park Crowded With Re
cruits-Many Arrivals

CHICKAMAUGA NATIONAL MILL
TARY PARK, June 1S-The First Regi-
ment, Georgia Infantry. 1000 officers and
men, in twelve. companies under Col. A. r.
Lawton of Savannah, arrived in the city
early today and shortly after breakfast was
transferred to the Park. The regiment has
been encamped at Griffin, Ca, for several
weeks and is in first-class condition. The
men are all well uniformed and fairly we'll
equipped.
Battery A. First Georgia Artillery. ac-
companed the regiment. The members OF
this command are well equipped and in
good shape. They have been constantly en-
gagged in exercise and drill for several weeks
during their encampment at Griffin. This
is one of the crack Southern regiments, be-
ing organized from one Of the Southern
artillery organizations which saw hard serv-
ice and behaved with great gallantry dur
ing the Civil War.
Inquiry among the regiments at the Park
has developed that the system Of carrying
acquisitions and requests to army head
quarters through long list of subhead-
quarters is causing delays which often ham,
per the commanding officers and discourage
cherished plans. A prominent regimental
| O1lCer VINO was questioned ABOUT the SyS-
tenn said that in his opinion there ought to
be more short cuts to bring about prompt
results. He illustrated by taking one item
which regiment might be in need of, the
prompt receipt of which would be highly
beneficial to the progress Of the regiment.
To obtain it, there is almost an endless round
through which the papers must go. Per-
haps by the time a reply reaches the COM
mand the war is half over and every body
has been worsted. Instead Of having time
to get in efficient work in training the vol
unteers, 1t is suggested that the time Is
taken up in answering papers and in attend
ing to the routine clerical work.
The regiments are also feeling rather
seriously the detailing of so many men to
the hospitals and to the various headquar-
ters for duty. Principally for this cause
in one regiment yesterday. only 2S members
of the company were able to report for
duty.
Fifteen cars of cavalry and artillery
horses which arrived last night from Chi

| this morning.

Recruits continue to arrive by the SCORE,
It Is estimated that between four and Ave
hundred come daily. The new men are put
in awkward squads Immediately after their
arrival and the work of making soldiers out
of them Is prosecuted without delay. YhS
indications are that the recruiting work
will be finished in a much shorter time than
was at first expected. 1t is now understood
that no movement Of troops viii be made
for some time, but that Chickamauga will
be drawn on just as may be needed for
the various expeditions that may be here
after ordered against Cuba and Porto Rico.
Today there is clear and mild temperature.
Hard drills will be undergone by all regi-
ments.
