AUTO FOILS LYNCHERS,
SHERIFF RUSHED HIS PRISONER
TO SHELTER OF JAIL.

YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio. August 19.-The
fourteen-year-o daughter of Rev. J. M.
Whitehead OF Turnersville, Pa, Satur-
day night. was run down by bloodhounds
from Warren, Ohio, and captured shortly
after midnight last night in a swamp near
Wick. Ashtabula county. He was taken to
the Meadville. Pa. Jail.
The capture was made by Chief Frank
Flowers of the Warren police. The officers
being close at hand, no attempt was made
to harm him and he was taken across the
country to Meadville.
GREENVILLE. Pa, August 19.-Sheriff
r. P. Marshall of Crawford county lodged
the alleged assailant of Alma Whitehead
in the Meadville jail early today. The man
was caught about 2:3O o'clock this morning
near Dorset, Ohio, on the low-grade divi-
sion of the Lake Shore railroad, and was
taken across the country in an automobile,
a distance of about thirty miles.
At several points along the road to Mead
vile the news of the capture had preceded
the officers, and excited groups had assem-
bled, bent upon lynching the prisoner.
The sheriff. however. by throwing wide
open the power OF his automobile, passed
the angry crowds In safety before they
had time to realize what had happened.
Miss Whitehead Is in a critical condition
from assault by a tramp Saturday night
Posses from two counties with bloodhounds
secured the country near jamestown, Pa,
and simons, Ohio, for the man.
Miss Whitehead met the stranger while
on her way to a neighbor's home. The
tramp inquired the way to Simons, Ohio,
and while she was telling him drew
knife and threatened to kill her If she
made an outcry. He forced her into
woods, where she was later found tied
to tree.

CANTEEN ACT DENOUNCED.
Report Of the Judge Advocate Gen
eral of the Army.

eral OF the Army.
The annual report of Acting Judge Ad-
vocate General Porter shows that there
was a decrease of 6s3 in the number of
courts-martial in the army during the last
fiscal year, The total number was 8,91S
including thirty-two officers, twenty-three
OF whom we're convicted. Among the en-
listed men by far the greater number Of
courts-martial trials were on account of
desertion. there being no less than 1,1O1
cases, and 1872 cases of absence without
leave. Four officers were dismissed by
sentence, as against fourteen last year.
The report dwells upon the evil results
following the passage OF the anti-canteen
caused the location near military reserva-
tions of resorts for the sale Of intoxicat-
ing liquors. which pander to the appetitss
and passions Of those enlisted men who
question frequent the same. These resorts
are beyond the control Of the military au-
thorittes and their presence is highly detri-
mental to military discipline If such legis-
of a military posD were followed in all
states the effect would undoubtedly be
conducive to military discipline and reduce
the number of court-martial trials for Of
lenses due to drunkenness"
Attention Is called to the continuance
Of the practice of selling clothing issued
to enlisted men in spite Of the efforts look
Ing to it's suppression, and 1t Is suggested
that the limit of punishment should be
increased and provision made for taking
ND the uniform clothing of a soldier upon
his discharge at an appraised value, thus
emphasizing the fact that the War De-
partment regards the uniform clothing is
sued to a soldier for his use in the military
in the same sense as his horse, arms or
accouterments.

GARB OF ENLISTED MEN.
Discussing Proposed Changes In tho
Army Uniform.

Changes In uniform for the enlisted men
of the army. with view to making it
more practical for everyday service pur-
poses, are receiving attention at the War
Department just as the matter Of changes
in the uniform Of the enlisted men Of
the navy is just now being agitated and
which forms the basis of the work of a
board Of which Capt. Osterhaus is chair
man. Various recommendations are being
received at the War Department, on the
subject, one Of which has come from Col.
L. NJ. Maus. whose observations are based
on his experience with the militia In the
feld He believes that the present regu-
lation felt hat IL unsuited for campaign
purposes in a hot or tropical climate. and
that the infantry marching trousers should
be made full around the knee, and the
cuff extended down the leg far enough to
be inclosed by the top Of the marching
shoe. thus doing away with the logging.

THE ARMORY
COMPANY A FEELS MUCH EN-
couRAGED OVER INTEREST ia
TAKEN in THIS MATTER.

:
1t is now very evident that Bis
marck will have a new armory to be
built in the near future by Company
A of the state militia. At the last
session the legislature passed bill
appropriating $4,000 for the building
of an armory, to any company which
can secure the necessary site and ST.
900. The city council will probably
take up the matter of donating the
price of the lots at its next meeting
and the boys feel sure that they will
be able to raise the amount of money
needed for such a worthy cause. i
The city would be benefited by the
addition of handsome building. 9th
er cities have already taken advana
tage of this splendid opportunity. At
Valley City Company G has built i
fine new building which has floor
space Of 75xf56 feet, at a cost of
$4,000. At Dickinson Company x
will have a handsome armory which
will cost $4,000. Is it not possible for
the Capital City tc have one that will
cost at least $4,000? The boys are
satisfied that it is.
