UNIFORM INSTRUCTIONS
Orders Recently Issued To National Guard
Concerning Use Of The New
Krag-Jorgensen Rifle,

Orders outlining systematic scheme
TO be observed by every command of the
national guard have been issued for the
purpose Of uniform instruction and to fit
the guard in the requirements of the re-
Gently passed Federal Militia Bill.
This is necessary in order for the State
to avail itself of the assistance of the
United States Government in the way Of
instruction and equipment. The orders
outline a systematic scheme to be OBJ
served by every command of the national
guard. Heretofore. it was entirely in the
discretion of the local commanding officer
and the present method is regarded as
sure to bring about improved results.
There is to be at least one drill a
waek. The first drill is TO be devoted to
instruction in the mechanism and care Of
the United States Magazine Rifles of the
Krag Jorgensen pattern. with which the
guard is shortly to be furnished The
second week is to be given to theoretical
instruction to non-commissioned officers
and privates, and the third and fourth
drills to closed order respectively. The
new rifles have been received in the
State and will be distributed among the
different companies shortly.

MRS. KEALYS REFUGE.
THE SISTERS OF EOTRE DAME WILL
TAKE HER IN.
Their Protection Offered And Hospitality
Extended To The Woman Who
Resisted Government.

Mrs. Kealy has not moved. She still
holds her fort alone in the dilapidateC
house on the government grounds withir
the Naval Academy walls, and is under
the guard Of sentinel
She expressed her willingness TO leave
when she received the message from the
rector of her parish that she must obey
the government. Her indomitable will
was broken, her spirit humbled and she
told her friend in need. Chief of Police
/ Brown. that she would 60 if he could
ind her place of abode.
This was no easy matter. Chief Brown
searched the town over for lodgings. but
nobody wanted Mrs. Kealy. Some were
afraid OF her, others did not care to bring
themselves into public notice by harbor-
ing woman whose doings had made
her public property. Last Friday the
Sisters of Notre Dame were visited and
requested by the naval authorities and
hief of Police Brown to admit Mrs.
Kealy into the convent.
No arrangements could be made, how
ever, until the Superioress of the Order,
who resides in Baltimore, was consulted
This was done on Saturday. and heI
permission was received. The Annapolis
Order of the Sisters of Notre Dame have
kindly consented to give Mrs. Kealy a
place of refuge. and will take her in and
offer her protection. She will remain
under their care until another home can
be secured for her elsewhere.
Mrs. Kealy will not reside in the con-
vent, however, but will occupy a vacant
frame building adjacent to it on the
premises. The Sisters will not accept
Mrs. Kealy as a boarder, but will extend
to her their hospitality until such time as
other arrangements can be made. The
work of the Sisters of Notre Dame is not
a corporal work.not such work as belongs
TO the sisters of Charity, the Bon Sc
Cour Sisters or the Sisters whose work
is that Of mercy. The work of the Sisters
of Notre Dame is spiritual work
They educate the ignorant and most
OF them are engaged in teaching. so that
it was contrary to their line of work TO
admit Mrs. Kealy into their community
woman who had brought notoriety upon
herself. 1t was no easy matter to offer
such woman home within the convent
walls. and matter OF so grave import
ance to the quiet Sisters. who shrink
from notoriety required due dehberation
They never once refused to admit her
when first requested. .as enormously stated.
but only asked for time to consider a
matter of such grave moment.
1t has now been fully settled that Mrs
Kealy will be given home within the
convent enclosure and she is pleased at
the prospect. Her furniture was moved
today, the first load left at 10 o'clock
this morning. and was stored in the
storage warehouse, and she will shortly
take up her temporary home under the
protection of the good Sisters of Notre
Dame at the foot Of Shipwright street.

NAVY WON FIRST GAME
bur UNIVERSITY or VIRGINIA DID MUCH
BETTER PLAYING.
Wet Field And Fumhling By Both Teams
Were Features Of The Game
Score, 6 To 5.

The Navy won the opening game o
the season on Saturday afternoon by de-
feating the University Of Virginia to 5,
The grounds were very wet. and there
were frequent showers during the game
All the scoring was in the first half, the
Navy scoring in the first FIVE minutes by
Reese picking the ball up from tumble
and running forty yards.
The visitors scored few minutes after
by hard line plunging. The Navy won
the lead, however. as Strassberger kicked
goal, and the visitors missed their at.
tempt at punt out, and SO lost their
chance. The honors were slightly with
the Navy in the second half. although
there was no scoring by either side. The
plays on either side were very much
lacking in variety. all OF them being the
kind used in the old days before the mass
formations. Virginia worked her backs
in tandem formation, and her best gains
were obtained by using Pollard in the
quarterback run around the end, allowed
by the rules of this year.
Most of the other substantial gains
secured by the visitors we're by using
Heald from the back position and Council
from the line. The Navy played its backs
in line, and generally hit the opposing
line just outside OF tackle. Strassburger
was by far the most steady ground gamer,
and Halsey made some good gains, and
was especially good in helping the runner.
Toward the latter part of the game Farley
was used to carry the ball. with good
effect. The Navy put up very credit
able game for the first OF the season, but
gave no promise of improvement of the
form of last year. Material is plentiful,
but the players are not larger nor partic-
ularly aggressive. The backs and ends
are, on the whole, satisfactory, but the
line men inside of ends are weak.
Strassburger, Root and Halsey all
showed an improvement over last year S
form. Captain Soule seems to be up to
his standard at end. but Whiting was
hardly in shape. Howard. however, is a
strong substitute should there be any
falling off in Whiting. Farley, at right
tackle, is the best man OF the center five,
but too light for the position. but none of
the others show anything like the form
that may be expected from players in the
same positions in any of the good college
teams. They all worked hard, however
and may make up in team work what
they lack in individual form. The lineup
Of the teams was as follows
Whiting, left end; Piersol, left
tackle; Grady. left guard; McClintic.
centre; Rees, right guard; Farley, right
tackle; Soule. (captain), right end; Need

IMPROVE THE PARK.

zone thing | notice about this
city said stranger to Sentinel
man day or two ago. land that is.
that, while in every respect the town
seems to be fiourishing. and while
there are many people from all parts
of the country here to visit the place.
there is no place for them to pass the
hours between trains with any degree
of comfort. which they must of ne
cessity spend here.
''Why don't the people of the city
petition their board of aldermen to
see that their park is put in shape for
the pleasure and comfort of their Wis
ilors When you do go to the park
which is really a pretty little place
if it were kept in better shape, you
are more than likley to find it flooded
with irrigation water than any thing
else. Since there are no comfortable
seats. one has mostly to lounge about
on the grass. which with the system
of irrigation used, is an impossibility.
1T would seem that pipes might be
laid in such manner that sprays
could be used each evening o. morn
ing. and that would make the grass so
that one could get through the park
without having to wade. -
This is not only the opinion of one.
but of nearly every man and woman
who comes to this city. with time to
take walk as far as our park. The
shade there this summer is far better
than ever before and if some pains
were taken to make the place attraC :
tions, many more favorable comments
would be made upon the appearance
of this city than we now hear.

The Mesa Dry Goods Com.
pany to Close.

The store of the Mesa Dry Goods
company will be closed tomorrow all
day. This action is taken to mark
down every piece of goods in our
store, preparatory to inaugurating the
most wonderful Midsummer price
cutting sale ever held in this city.
Here are few reasons v hv we in
tend giving you the benefit of remark .
able prices.
In the first place the past Spring,
just whan we should have been sell
ing lots of goods, was very backward
spring. We had bought very heavily
anticipating hearing trade which
would have moved all our goods ear
ly. The weather conditions were
carrying iae of goods which should
have been sold long ago.
We don't want to carry these goods
over another season, we would prefe:.
as any good business house would. to
lose little on them right now. ratht T
than lose great deal on them by car
rying them into another season This
is not the policy of any up to date
store.
We are not going out of business.
the fact is we are going into business
heavier than ever before. We must
have room when our fall stock begins
to arrive. which some of it is doing
now.
In order to do these things which
good business dictates we have simply
determined to close our store tomor-
row, (Friday. July 10th) and then
give you sale which will be r,smem-
bered for long time to come
We simply ask you to ref,d the
prices in this paper in our big a.dver-
tisement and you will be readily CON
vinced that we will keep our word, as
we have always done, in regard to
prices.
Saturday our store will be open for
the big sale and it will pay every pur
chaser i'll the city to visit us on that
day. The sale will continue three
DAYS
