SEVENTEEN GUNS
FOR GENERAL MILES

unless daylight attack is ordered. The
moon Is very full these nights. and it
would not be surprising were this plan
adopted. All the departments are anx-
ious for the fray. while the guardsmen
themselves are anxious to settle the
rivalry between the two regiments.
Three years ago, at Whites Farm, the
First Regiment was victorious, but at
Gaithersburg, the following year, and
last year at Fort Evans. the Second
Regiment proved TO be superior.

manual of arms by Lieutenant Harvey,
who commands Troop E. Practically
all the officers were present, including
the colonels of both regiments, the bat
TALON commanders, and the company
officers, nearly hundred in number.
Many new things in connection with
handling the sword were taught some OF
the officers. There has heretofore been
some difference as to certain points in
the drill.
Orders were issued by Capt. A. P. Rob-
bins, acting adjutant general. today pro-
viding for paying the troops on Saturday
for the six months ending on June 30
last. This work will be in charge of

general. who will be assisted by Paying
Teller Taylor, of the Washington Loan
and Trust Company. Nearly $500 has
been expressed to camp, and il is ex-
pected to arrive at Leesburg tomorrow

the financial institutions in the Virginia
town until Saturday morning. The pay

Nap on the Market Line Costs Columbus
Heffner S24 in Cash.

Columbus Heffner felt rather sleepy
and lay down to rest near the Market

Army Says Magnetic Bal
ance viii Win Games
From the Navy.
POINTS, WEIGHS, MEASURES
Sensitive instrument Viii Indicate Di-
rection Of Armorclads, Their Ton
mage, and Distance-wiIl Be Used in
Defense of New York Harbor.

The victory is already wrested from
the navy. the military asserts. in the
great war game which is to be played
In August and September near New
York.
| The army officers say that there isn't
any use for Admiral Higginsons squad
ron to try to run past the Connecticut
and Long Island coast defense batteries
under cover of the darkness. But they
don't say il very loud. for tie way they
are going to thwart the admfral's plans
is a big secret. so big that all Of 1t
couldn't be kept within the limits of
the War Department.
1t would be treason to print anything
on the subject II the war game were to
be the real thing. and not a game.
Even in the present circumstance, 1t
might be considered mean to let Adj
miral Higginson know in advance what
is in store for him. But the War De-
partment and the Navy Department have
invited the newspapers to try to find out
everything they could about the Long
Island Sound operations. SO nobody has
any right to complain over the victory
of The Times In discovering the secret
plans.
The Magnetic Balance.
1t is a very little thing that is to
work destruction to the strategical plan
of Admiral Higginson to sail past the
forts without being seen and place New
York at the mercy of his guns before
the people OF the city wake up to find
out what is going on. 1t is an instru-
ment called the magnetic balance
With 1t, so the army officers Whisper
the presence Of warship fifty miles at
sea can be detected. When Admiral
Higginson's big steel armor-clads get
within the ffty-Inile limit of the instru-
oents power a magnetic indicator will
begin to move, and won't stop until it
points straight toward them. II the
ships try to make a circuit the Indicator
will follow. Af
Measures Distances.
But this isn't the most wonderful
thing about the magnetic balance. 1t
is reputed to be able to keep track of
the distances to the ships, so that no
matter how black the night. the arti!-
lerymen at the forts will know just wien
The enemy's fleet is within gun range.
And still more wonderful, the instru-
ment has a device which will show the
tonnage of the approaching vessels.
Those who know all about it declare
that the difference between a merchant
man and war vessel can be detected
by this remarkable invention.
The instrument is said to be an elabo-
ration of the magnetic needle to which
physicians resorted, before the discov-
cry Of the X-rays in attempts to locate
bullets in a human body. The magnetic
needle was used by President Garfields
physicians to find out where Guiteau's
bullet had lodged.

CORONATION FASTENED
BY KINGS CONDITION
Believed He Will Never Be
So Well Again.
Second Operation Believed to Be I'm
perative-Edward Eager to
to Wear Crown.

LONDON, July pa high court Of
fcial who has seen King Edward many
times since the operation was performed
upon his majesty. today gave your COZ
respondent the following careful state
ment:
Second Operation Necessary.
Tic operation. which was far more
serious and complicated than anyone
was led TO believe, revealed diseased
conditions involving large portion Of
the intestinal cavity. The operation re-
!nored the immediate danger and gave
A chance for rally. which the Kias
wonderfully availed himself OF. But me
conditions are still such that a s-cond
operation is only question OF time.
3 The operation will probably be per
formed IN the autumn. OF the Kings
chances from this operation the doctors
are unwilling to predict. The King Is
eager TO be crowned soon for the sake
OF the empire and feeling that 1t would
be unsafe to postpone it longer.
Court Circles Gloomy.
Court circles are very gloomy. The
queen, VINO Is Wohderiully usNoteu ~
the King. sees almost nobody. The
Prince OF Wales so frequently gives way
to tears in his fathers presence that
the doctors seek not TO leave them alone
together. While smoking is largely re-
sponsible for the Kings trouble, he IS
allowed an occasional cigar as depriva
ton now would be OF no avail. II would
be useless TO deprive him of this
solace."
This statement confirms the earlier
statement, which has never been denied
of the eventual necessity of a Sc :o:Id
operation.

FAST HORSES COMING
FULLY FIFTY OF THE BEST
HORSES AT LATONIA TO BE HERE
EARLY IN DECEMBER.
NIGHT RACING PROPOSED AT
THUNDERBOLT TRACK THIS
WINTER.

Three Owners Have Written Alex.
Doyle Relative to Winter Quarters
Here and Will Probably Be Put at
the TbunderboIt Track-ProposaT
to Have Night Races There, the
Track to Be Brilliantly IIlumi-
nated-May Also Have Races With
WnIthour and Nelson, the Bicy-
clists.
In all probabilities the people of Sa-
vannah will be given the opportunity
of witnessing some very fast running
horse races this winter, as several own
ers representing a total of fifty or more
of the fastest horses in America, are
anxious to come here for quartering
and have written to Alexander Doyle
relative to accommodations.
Principally among those DESTROYS OF
coming are ]. r. Hahn, Charles Hawk
and w F. Walters, all of Cincinnati,
and whose animals are now racing on
Latonfa course. Should these horse
men come they will be here about Dec.
l, and will begin a series OF races on
or about Christmas. They Will be
CHARTERED at the Thunderbolt course,
and it is being advocated by several
local sportsmen to- hold racing at
night, the track to be Illuminated by
many electric lights, thus making 1t
as bright as day.
This movement is in its infancy but
those promoting it are enthusiastic IN
the matter and it is very probable tnat
the same viii be accomplished.
It is also proposed in the event OF
Jack Prince, returning here in Decem-
Der with Bobbie Walthour and Joe Mel
son, the bicyclists, to arrange matches
for Walthour and Nelson against the
horses. Prince. however, has got 10 De
IN New Orleans in January to NIL an
engagement there, and it may be pos
sible that he cannot make this city
next month, though he has expressed
desire TO come If possible.
This proposition Of night racing Will
no doubt, meet with popular approval
and the events will evidently prove a
craving card, as many people VINO
cannot get away from business during
me day will take the night for pleas
uIe purposes and patronize them eA-
iensively.
