LAST ENCAMPMENT.
The National Guard WIN Likely be Con-
troIled by Government I'm the Future
he on Larger Scale.

Charleston. w. Va July 27-This
will likely be the last annual encamp-
ment of the National Guard alone, or
rather under the mana ement Of the
state officers alone. By the time OF
the next encamDment it is altogether
probable the encampments will be
controlled by the government and will
be held under the personal super
vision of the war department The
matter has been agltated for some
years but up until this time the SUBJ
ject has been given wholly to talk.
Now, however. the subject is being
seriously considered by those in au-
thority and at the next Congress the
matter will be laid before that body
for some disposition. In fact, at the
time of the passage of the army re-or-
ganization bill, it was ordered that
the secretary of war examine into
the election of four reservations for
this purpose. A telegram from Wash
ington will give readers an idea of
WHAT ID COHteui pldibt.
Maneuvers on scale as extensive
as that observed BIZ the military ma
lions of Europe will be ordered by the
war department as soon as the ground
necessary for their execution can be
acquired by the government.
This project Is of as great interest
and Importance to the national guard
of the country as it is to the army.
Both regulars and militia will par
ticipate. There will be infantry at
tacks, cavalry charges and artillery
duels. The conditions, in fact, will
approximate war.
Upon Secretary..R Root S return from
his inspection trip he will carry out
the directions of the army re-organi-
cation law, authorizing him to select
four sites for permanent camping
grounds for the instruction of the re-
gulars and militia. A board of Off
GERS will be appointed to examine
sites. As practice by field artillery
will be a part of the exercises, it is
estimated that at least six square
miles will be necessary for each camp;
for the cavalry horses, grazing land
will be necessary, and for watering
purposes stream must run through
the reservation. Lit Is proposed to
select only sites having hills and
broad level fields and partly covered
by trees.
Officials say site may be selected
either in Tennessee or Georgia, another
in New Mexico, the third III Montana
or North Dakota, and the fourth in
the extreme northwest
In addition to the location of the
sites, it will be necessary to construct
storehouses. and other buildings and
infantry and artillery ranges. There
is no intention to build barracks The
men will be expected to sleep in
tents and perform the duties incident
to field life. -

SUMMER Spoons. 4"
Hot Weather Brings Dat Lovey Doveys
Thicker Than Sand Flies.

It's lucky that "all the world loves
a lover these midsummer DAYS, FOR
lovers abound. They are as plentiful
as heat strokes and twice as perplex-
ing. Ice on the head usually helps
the former; nothing mitigates the
latter. The only way to avoid them
is to shut yourself right up at home
and pull the blinds down. Then they
may get on the doorstep, because they
think you re out of town, and If YOU
look out the rear windows you IL see
more of them in the back yard. No
matter where you look you'll see
them. They are the genuine hot
weather variety, too, blissful and nm
conscious. They court right along,
careless of the multitudes and wrap
ped in their own blazing affection.
Sometimes the RAIN pours ON therr,
but they heed it not. The wind blows
aud the rain falls: thew know it not,
They are oblivious to the presence of
common mortals and they do not wait
for either earthquakes or eclipses to
excuse their embracings.

JURY COULDN'T AGREE.
Jury In the Glenn Case stood seven for
Conviction and Five for AcqutttaI.

Parkersburg, W. Va, July 3l-At
300 'clocksthe jury in the Ellis Glenn
case announced its inability to agree
and was discharged. The jury stood
seven for conviction and five for ac-
quittal. Glenn was released ON bond
but will not be tried again at this
term of court.
The case was one of the most SEN
sational in the criminal history of
West Virginia, and costthe state thous-
ands of dollars. The entire case
hinged upon the Identification of Ellis
Glenn as being the same as one Bert
Glenn, formerly of Williamson, w.
Va. Over one hundred witnesses were
examined pro and con, and the best
criminal lawyers in the state We're
arrayed against each other. While
Ellis Glenn appeared in court attired
as woman the prosecution sought
TO identify her as Bert Glenn. a
male. The decision of the jury seem
ed to have but little impression upon
the prisoner She merely smiled when
the result was announced. Her re-
cognizance was extended by the court
until next Thursday

drawn up in marching order they
would completely surround an entire
city square. A careful estimate OF
the number of persons entering this
place during its banner day Of trade
is 225, 600. This means, roughly
speaking, that the crowd which
passed under this roof on a single
days traffic more than equaled the
entire population OF Louisville,
Minneapolis or Jersey City, none
of which is credited with more than
207, 600 inhabitants.
The average force of employees
maintained by an institution of this
size is about $500 but this brigade
is increased to 1900 to meet the de-
mands of prosperous holiday trade.
AL ingenious anu iiAAtAt0tihkS
thod of placing the magnitude of this
establishment within the grasp of the
reader is to compare its trade with
the total retail traffic of a provincial
city or town A comparison OF this
kind indicates that. according to the
normal distribution of trade, the
business transacted by the largest de-
partment store of the West would
equal all the retail traffic done by a
city of about so, 600 inhabitants.
Another way of bringing the big
ness Of the department store within
the realization of the reader is by re-
ference to the size of its purch SEES.

Paterson, N. J. Aug. ling ry
among the members of the anarchist
group in this city in regard to the
man arrested at Zurich reveals the
fact that a man named Amiel Gal
loippi was formerly connected with
the anarchists here and was we'll
known among them. He was employ
cd as a weaver in the Paragon Silk
Mill in this city. 1t was stated today
by member of the group that Gal
loippi sailed away with Bresci, Lanni,
when they departed on their mission
Of assassination. Galloippi had been
selected by the anarchists to kill
Nicholas, Gar of Russia and had ac-
cepted the mission. He was known
as n determined man and lone who
would be likely TO take desperate
chances IN accomplishing his purpose.
New York Aug. lit developed
last night that Galliotti's name was
connected with the story which was
circulated months ago in Patterson
thatKing Humbert's death was sought
by anarchists.
AT that time Carno Fossinni fore
man in dye works at Paterson, was
shot and killed by Giuseppe Sperenzi.
The latter was cornered and when
the police We're closing IN upon him
he shot himself There was a letter
found on him which told of the plot
to kill Humbert. 1t called on Sperenzi
to act as one of ~ men to leave this
country to wreak vengeance on the
crowned heads of Europe. A few
weeks afterward King Humbert was
assassinated. 1t is now said that the
letter found on Sperenzi was signed
by Galliotti. 1t has always been
claimed that Sperenzi's killing of the
foreman was to make up for his re-
fusal to tNone of those to 20 to Eu-
rope.
Ii is recalled that Galliottl when
he lived in Paterson, had one pet
scheme, and this he was forever
preaching to his country men. This
was the draining of the Hackensack
meadows and the building thereon a
city, the ihnbitants of which would
be devoted to the cause of the anar-
chists. But no money was ever forth
coming to carry out the idea. Ernes-
tina Carvello, whose devotion to the
cause is most openly vowed, left Pat
erson today for New London, Conn,
to visit her brother. Before going
she denied all knowledge of Galliotti.

opening address. his subject being THE
Literary Qualities of the Bible"
Dr.. Tippy in his remarks viewed the work
of the Bible from a literal standpoint. TAX
ing IL as a foundation OF all the early
teachings OF the ancient classics. Like
the historian who strives to write a history
he goes to the very beginning of the epoch
about which he intends writing he said.
and so II Is with Christians who want TO
know Christ as He should be ~knOwn-they
go 20 the very beginning OF the Did Tesla
merit and read the books down TO the New
Testament, become imbued with the spirit
thrown out by the wor;s of the prophets
and apostles and understand properly the
life of Christ.
iii the five early books OF the Bible We
havb the finest OF literary efforts. In them
We are taught ancient history. on down TO
the Book Of Gospels and the epistles of the
disciples we are given works OF literature
which will never be surpassed"
Mr.. Edgar l.. Davis also gave a short adj
dreas in which he outlined the Bible work
for the winter. An orchestra furnished
music and Prof. George Hebble gave sew
eraf selections on the piano.
