Each military district holds under
its responsible care a full equipment
for the total number of soldiers which
that district can be called upon to
furnish. The federal government pays
all the expenses of the entire military
organization, but holds the local gov
ernments responsible for the care and
equipment of supplies. The manufac-
ture of war material is reserved to the
Jurisdiction OF the federal government.
The peace manoeuvres anticipate
war conditions in everything that is
done, and the law is so complete in Its
detail that the moment war was de-
clared the whole country would come
under the jurisdiction of the war de-
parment in the conduct of nearly every
function of government and public SER
vice. This military law of Switzer-
land has been In force since 1874, with
very slight changes. 1t has been
studied by nearly every military ex
pert from other countries and is looked
upon as practically perfect. Under
this law Switzerland is converted into
a single military organization, which,
at the first alarm, can turn a warlike
face toward the world. Such n state
of effectiveness Is made necessary by
the geographical situation of the
| country. and the Swiss people do not
| appear to find anything obnoxious in
this all-prevailing military organiza-
ton. One reason for this is that it is
| communal, feature of the entire
| Swiss government in the exercise Of
all its functions. 1t would not be
necessary nor would it be possible to
| secure the adoption of the Swiss sys-
| TEN In any country of the character
of the United States but in the mill
| tary law of Switzerland, going as 1t
does into the most minute detail of the
organization Of a people for the in
stant defense Of the integrity Of their
country, many valuable suggestions
can be secured for a uniform organiza-
tion which will necessarily be effect
ed sooner or later.

Power of a Chlld,s Gift.

A little crippled girl who died In
Plainfield, N. j., ten years ago left her
savings of $3.50 to the church she
loved, and the pennies were put in the
bank. She had intended to use them
to purchase doll carriage, but when
told she would not live to enjoy it
made the disposition of her mite in the
manner stated. When a $4,000 mort
gage pressed upon the church recent
ly the pastor of the church remem-
bered the baby's legacy and asked his
parishioners to do as we'll as the little
cripple. The magic of example worked
to charm. The money was raised at
a single collection under the inspira-
tion furnished by this example of de-
votion, and the church is free from
debt And little child shall lead
them. m."-Philadelphia Times.

Experience shows" says Major G..
w. Ruthers, of the commlssary de-
partment, that the American soldier
serving in these islands needs the full
army ration, including the full allow
ance of fresh beef; his health cannot
be maintained without it. In addi-

sweets and acids" In this connection
he mentions the demand for saur.

American cannot be maintained in
the Luzon climate. The health Of the
Filipinos living on American foods, he
says. is much better than those living
on native foods.-Washington Post.

Numer- ous answers have bee nreceived and Mobile and Huntsville seem to be be running a close race in the matter of popularity of location. No official in- formation relative to the encampments have been given out, but it is said the annual appropriation of s12,500 is so small that it will be necessary for the city which gets the encampment to supplement the amount by a subscrip- tion.

 Local Railroads,


 Yesterday morning Conductor Wilcox and his train crew coming north on the second section of local freight train No 16 of the Louisville and Nashville saw a negro at Garland, who answered the description of the one who shot Brakeman Jule Posey early Monday morning.

 The negro was arrested, however, and taken to Greenville, where an officer boarded a south-bound train and car ried him to Evergreen, where he is now locked up in Jail. He is a Montgomery negro of unsavory reputation. by the name of George Harris. To the min utest detail he answers the description of the assailant of Posey.
