NATIONAL GUARD RECORDS
War Departments New System Gives
 Quartermasters Night Sweats.

In all the history of the world no,n- ing ever happened to so thoroughly disturb, disorganize and embarrass military men, as the late annual CR- oampment of the Arizona national guard near Prescott. That incident was "pulled off, some time ago and has really gone into history, but the de- tails of it, the official record making is still in process and bids fair to be when the youthful guardsmen who participa ted in the target practice and did lonely guard duty on the Yavapai hills, with the thermometer at 1C0 in the shade, have all become gTizzIed and gray haired veterans with their names at the head of the pension list and their orphaned children draw ing quarterly stipends from the nation al treasury.
 And all this because Of some new war department regulations that are more perplexing than Mark Smiths theory of how to get statehood for Arizoul. The encampment of course was held
 under the regulations of the war de- partment and at the financial expense
 of the national government, but before
 the final accounting. it is feared 1t will
 be necessary to add to the Hill the wrecked mentality of every soldier pa
 triot in the organization who is weight cd with the responsibility of either chevrons or shoulder straps.
 The war department m its wis 1om
 recently evolved a new system of rec ords and accounts for the use Of the national guard, exclusively. The blanks are unlike the old militia records and 1 unlike the records of the regular es- tablishment. They are law unto l themselves and there isn't paragraD l lacking. There are big blanks and iit- tie blanks. Some have red lines. some black and some are ruled in blue. Some require duplicates, some require tripli- cates and in the case of others it has not yet been ascertained what they .-e- 1 quire. But they all require patience
 perseverance and ingenuity.
 Quartermaster George Alllire is the | official record maker, that is the great
 chief of records, for the regiment. and if he should be defeated for superyis-
 or next month it will be only because he was too deeply submerged in ws.s
 records to make his political canvass
 He kept an account of everything that happened at the encamPment, or at
 least he thought he did. even to the
 number of extra cups of coffee that
 were brewed for the governor when he visited the camp for official review, but eevry day or so while rumagire through his army desk he finds new blank that he never heard of before and forthwith hunts up the captains
 the colonel and finally the adjutant general, seeking either for facts or ln- formation concerning their proper re- cording. And the dignified reply of his
 superior officers is always search ne.
 Col. McClintOcks office is usually the point of rendezvous for these cor

ferences and while the colonel and the. adjutant general are studying over some specially complicated blank, the quartermaster reconnoiters around the railroad offices, grocery stores and va rious other places where things have been bought or arrangements made, seeking information. The worst Of it is that he generally gets it and the more information he gets the worse off he is for it always develops some rew kink in the records that he had not discovered before. And it not infre-
 quently happens that before he returns Captain Hayden of Tempe drops in for a little light on his company accounts. or a letter comes from some captain or lieutenant in a faraway portion Cf the
 territory asking what to do in the case
 of this or that.
 The quartermaster's woe began early
 in the encampment The campaign
 wasn't a day old before he discovered
 he was up against it and he immedi-
 ately set out for Fort Whipple to get
 some help from the officers of the reg
 ular army stationed there. But all he
 could get was in effect the same old re-
 ply, "search me- The officers at the
 post said they had never seen any
 blanks like that and MT. Alkire re-
 spectfully intimated that as he wished them no harm he hoped they never
 would again. At the latest conference
 held yesterday Col. McCHptock inform
 ed the quartermaster that there was
 nothing in his experience as a rough
 rider that gave him any light and Col. Leavel, the adjutant general. said he had spent most of his life in the army, had fought, bled and died for l. l-f army posts, on the field of carnage or in the dungeons of the enemy's prisons he had never encountered official rec ords that made his hair stand up so straight or that were more perplexing to his ingenuity. He was willing to pray with the quarterma ster, or help him in any other way possible and fin- ally would sign anything that looked a though it was right, but in the meantime he could give no expert ad- vice. He said if they had been engag ged in a real battle of some kind it would be easy enough to Hose things Tn ac- tion," or ''burn by order" such things
 as made too much trouble, but as not a drop of blood had been spilled and
 no battle had been fought, everything had to be accounted for. If the first regiment bought a tin cup it had co be shown as a tin cup and couldn't be entered as a bale of hay for the horses. There was no opportunity to work in any prize packages or slough off any thing that chanced to be in the way. But the quartermaster is making progress and hopes eventually to get next to the new system of bookkeeping. If he don't succeed the United States
 can never accuse him of not trying for he works at it all day and dreams about it all night. And there is the
 greatest harmony between all the of ficers. There couldn't be anything else for they are all up against 1t.

PASSPORT TO NEWPORT SOCIETY.

Spendthrift ancestors have left many of the nobility with vast establishments which they are not able to maintain, and it has become their ambition to rent their country homes to rich Amer jeans. The number of the latter who care to spend any long time in Eng land is limited, and other means1to eX- tract dollars from aspiring Americans have been adopted. For example, the lease of an Englishman's yacht may contain the provision that the noble man and certain of his titled friends shall visit the vessel at stated times
 This is the simplest road of the par Venu millionairs to swell society. To have had as his guests persons of title is a sure passport to the best circles of Newport.-Philadelp Record.

lows:
81 have had to deal with an organic
alton which has no counte' part in this

full of defiance and challenge, issued

has been said, to a declaration Of
war;"
Il have met the challenge with a
policy none too vigorous for the out
lawry l was called to oppose. But
through it all had but one object

that a criminal organization cannot
