Frank Carey, n Soldier, Charged With
Being Desertcr.

Frank Carey, nineteen years DID, was ar
rested last night by Detectives Horne and
Harugan as deserter from the 1lth Cav
airy and was locked up, to be turned over
to the military authorities. The young man
enlisted at New York to go to the Philip
pines and was sent to Fort Myer. During
his short stay at the fort he met a young
woman who lived in Georgetown. They
were married and about ten days ago he
left the post to live with his wife on Mis-
souri, avenue. Last night the detectives
located him and called at the house where
the couple occupied room. When they
entered the room the alleged deserter was
not to be seen, but his wife was there, ap-
parently unconcerned.
Il believe he's in the colset," remarked
one of the officers, opening the door.
Just then noise was heard under the
bed and the young man obeyed the order
of one of the officers to come out.
Hell not go with YOU said his wife, in
dignantly. I'll not let him go to the Phil
ippines if 1 have to see President Roose-
Welt"
She protested, but in vain, for the Of
ficers separated the young couple and took
the husband away to spend the night be-
hind the bars. He said he had no obiec-
ton to going to the Philippines until he
listened to his wifes pleadingS, and then he
felt 1t would be impossible to endure the
separation.
His troop left here last night and started
for the Philippines. What is to become of
the alleged deserter will be known after
he is given hearing in military court
