The Manassas Man0euyres.

Washington, y. e., August 8.-An
army of workmcn, directed from Wash
ington, is now engaged in preparing
the ground for the army manoeuvrcs
that are to take place between the 9th
and 10 of September on the battle
fields of Virginia. Where the Union
and Confederate warriors struggled at
Bull Run and Haymarket in the COS
camps afc now being laid out for the
young soldiers OF to-day. When the
manoeuvers are in full blast, it is esti.
mated that $4,000 men will be en-.
gagged. Of this number five thousand
will be regular soldiers End the re-
mainder State troops. Three great
camps will be established. The water
supply fo- tie troops is one of the
chief concerns Of the camp builders.
Camp No. l which is to be near Lewis
Crossing, Prince William County. will
be supplied with artesian wells, no
less than % being necessary for the
purpose of camp life Camp No. 9,
near Thoroughfarc. will derive it's
water supply from two big reservoirs,
which will be fed by a ine spring at
Thoroughfare Gap. The matter of
conveying the soldiers and their out
fits, the tents and provisions, and the
thousand and one articles that will
be needed upon the manocuvring
grounds is another great problem to
be confronted. The Southern Rail
way Company has this matter in
charge, and is busy laying down tracks
and constructing stations for the use
OF the soldiers and their friends. All
told, the Government has $1,000, 900
ready to spend upon the manoeuvres,
if such sum is needed, but it is not
probable that it will cost as much as
that. The manoeuvring area is G5,-
600 acres, which, under the agree
meht made with the farners Of Vir-
gihia, is to be leased at twenty cents
an acre. In addition to that expense
the United States will probably be
called upon to pay few bills for dam
ages to crops, buildings and stock.
The amount Of damages to be paid the
farmers will be determined after the
manoeuvres are over by a board of
adjudication. This board will consist
of three members, who are to be ap.
pointed respectively by Gen. Corbin,
by the Governor of Virginia and by
the farmers. The Southern Railway
Company is spending s25, 900 in lay
ing tracks about the camps. On Sep
tcmbcr 10, which will probably be
the gala day of the manoeuvres, there
will be parade and review of the en-
tire force by President Roosevelt and
Gen. Corbin, commanding the depart
ment Of the East. Then there will be
sham battles almost every day of the
six between State troops or State
troops and regulars upon some por-
tion of the great quadrangle, which
stretches lis length aud breadth over
100 square miles of territory.

Story Of q Boys Bravery.

The story of a litt' 'ar boy who
refused to betray even on
the threat of death = Major
Seely, NJ. p, as ton Of
deeply rooted /. and Of
country. 1t b :. during the
Boer war.
Il was asked" said Major Seely.
ito get some volunteers, and try to
capture commandant at place some
twenty miles away. l got the men
readily and we set out. 1t was q
rather desperate enterprise, but we
got there all right. | can see the
little place yet, the valley and the
farm house, and l can hear the clatter
OF the horses hoofs. The Boer gen
eral had got away, but where had he
gone? 1t was even a question of the
general catching us and not US catch
ing the general. We rode down to
the farm house and there we saw q
good looking Boer boy and some yeo-
men. l asked the boy if the com
mandant had been there, and he said
in Dutch, taken by surprise, yes
where has he gomez I said, and the
boy became suspicious. He answered
I don't know
II decided then to do thing for
which I hope I may be forgiven, be-
cause my mems lives were in danger.
l threatened the boy with death If he
would not disclose the whereabouts of
the general. He still refused, and I
put him against the wall and said
would have him shot. At the same
time / whispered to my men 'For
Heavens sake don't shoot The boy
still refused, although 1 could see he
believed l was going TO have him shot.
| ordered the men to Aim Every
rife was levelled at the boy.
Now, [ said, before I give the
word, which way has the general
gomez I remember the look in the
boys face-a look such as I have
never seen but once. He was trans
figured before me. Something greater
almost than anything human shone
from his eyes. He threw back his
head, and said in Dutch, L will not
say There was nothing for it but to
shake hands with the boy and go
away. ."-Singapore Straits Budget.

Rockefeller Eats Cheese.

John d. Rockefeller, Sr., was in a
pleasant form of mind before he start
ed on Saturday for Florida.
''My health? Thank you; l was
never better better in my like" he
said. Il have discovered the best
prescription for good health is outdoor
exercise and eating slowly. Be regu-
lar in everything. but above all things
eat slowly.
IF have only fifteen minutes to eat
a luncheon, / will eat four or five
mOuthfuls in that time and carry a
mouthful with me. Four monthfuls
slowly eaten is far better than hearty
meal consumed in haste. 1t takes a
person long time to appreciate this
fully, but the sooner they do it the
better it will be for their health. l
find that when play golf lot and
keep out of doors both eat and sleep
better.
''DO you know that recently read
an article by well-known scientific
man to the effect that cheese is an
excellent article for diet. | wish that
had read that article a long time ago.
[ had been afraid that cheese had a
tendency to produce Indigestion, and
for that reason never touched it
Now find that its effects are directly
contrary and eat a great deal Of it
and that it agrees with me.
Take m, advice, eat slowly and
have outdoor exercise and you will en-
Joy good health"
