TROOPS PLAY AT WARDING
 0FF ENEMY
Game of War Carried on With Much Show of Realism By
 Regulars and State Guards at California Encampment.

CAMP ATASCADERo. Oct. 2.- With two hostile army corps, one sup posed to be concentrating at San Fran cisco and the other at Los Angeles, and an imaginary hostile squadron of warships reported off the coast near Port Harford, the problems given by the umpires to the squadron and bar talion commanders today called for more difficult work and more extens- i've field maneuvers than the simple exercises of yesterday
 A Red" squadron of the Fifth Cav. airy under Major Fred Foster, with Captain Rhodes and Lieutenent Hodg- es as umpires, was ordered as an ad- vance guard to ascertain the number ard composition of a large force of an enemy from San Luis Obispo. To give the situation a degree of realism, Troop H of the Fourteenth Cavalry un- der Captain Adams, screened among the trees and bushes behind a hill five miles southeast of the camp, repre- sented the hostile army. The out posts of the squadron came in contact with the advance guard of the enemy about 10 o'clock and were driven back on the main column, the patrols re eonnoitering and reporting that the ridge was strongly occupied.
 The second battalion, Eighth In-
 fantry, Captain Edward Bell command, ing; the third battalion, Captain Traber Norman, the first battalion of the Twentieth Infantry, Captain F. D, Webster, and the third battalion of the same regiment, Captain c. c.
 Smith. accompanied by Captains Knud ! son and King and Lieutenants Fuqua
 and Beebe, operated independently
 over different routes as advance guard of an, army approaching from the
 north the battaIions made reconnais
 ance and tock various positions. The instructions were the execution of
 orders and the making of such re ports to the commander in chief as
 would have been made had the situa 1 ton been real.
 l Wireless communication between l Camp Atascadero and Paso Robles, 2 distance of thirteen miles, was estab llished, most successful experiments being made Monday the entire brigade win move into the field under
 command of Lieutenant Colonel H | E. Moon.

DAMNED BY THEIR LEApER.

There is much sophistry, some DOS itive deception, deal of egotism and a little more or less important truth in the latest ebullition from the White House. It is as interesting for what it omits as for what it says and 1t is most interesting for an in genuous relation of MT. Roosevelt's views as to publicity for campaign contributions, says the St. Louis Re public.
 Discussion of the sophistry may be omitted. It consists largely in call Ing attention to bygones of 1896 and to the failure of Attorney General Olney to institute prosecutions under the antitrust law during MT. CIeve- lands administration, without men, ton of the fact that there was a sim liar and less excusable failure during MT. McKinley's term. And it may be found in frequent references to jus- tice, fair dealing, the square deal and honesty of various degrees and kinds.
 The President cites the numerous suits he directed to be started against combinations of capital, against rail- roads and against the beneficiciaries Of rebates. It Is not a particularly imposing list wheE 1t is compared with the political advantage claimed from 1t. but it will do. The most con spicuous thing in the list of railroads that have been prosecuted success fully and otherwise Is the absence of the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe, and in the list of individuals the ab- sence of the name of Paul Morton.
 Has the president forgotten how his friend Morton stood in the way of sinners and sat in the seat of the scornful; how he sneered at the inter- state commerce commission while his company scattered rebates with impious hand; how 1t helped the Beef trust hamstring the independent pack CT; whipsawed the competitions of the Colorado Fuel and Iron company; how 1t devised iniquitous ways of piling up tainted money for that DOT ton of the Kansas salt industry which belonged to the Morton family? Yet Morton was finally sent forth from the cabinet into the world with a clean bill of health signed T.

NAT TELLS HOW MAXINE GAVE HIM
 THE CLASSY EYE
Prepared a Welcome, But She Moved Furniture Into
 Another Room.

RENO, New, Oct. 2.-Nat c. Good. win, the actor, was granted an abso- lute divorce from his wife, Jessie Der mott Goodwin, known as Maxine Elliott, by Judge Pike on the grounds of desertion today. There was no semblance of eontestson the part of the attorneys representing Mrs. Good win. Mrs. Goodwin's attorneys did not cross-examine Goodwin or George Weeden, who were the only witnesses, neither did they offer any testimony o the part of the defendant.
 Goodwin gave his testimony in a low voice. He told how his wife had deserted him and was unprompted by his attorney, Judge Dodge. He told of having prepared apartments for him self and wife in a New York hotel, but on Mrs. Goodwin's return from Europe in September she moved all the fur niture she wanted to another room and refused to share the suite with l him. He said he went to her rooms and asked her if she intended living 1 with him and she reIrsied in the nega- tive, and has since refused to live with him.

HEARsT's UNEARNEo cREoI

For the expose which resulted in the dethronement of Foraker and the resignation of Haskell MT. Hearst is given the credit generally. Hearst is stirring them up anyway" one hears on all sides.
 Yet Hearst has done nothing much to brag about. Ordinarily the letters he produced would attract no atten- tiop The Democrats dethroned For aker and the Republicans forced Has kell to resign.
 It has been a matter of common knowledge for years that Foraker was all that the letters show him to be. That the senator was directly em- ployed by the Standard Oil company vhile in the senate was a matter that the most ignorant farmer of the state of Ohio knew. Hearst produced the letters as if he were about to tell something sensational and everybody got the fever and believed he had told something new.
 The finger of Foraker is seen plain ly in the 50-year street car franchise law passed by the Ohio legislature as well as in other pies that were good eating for monopolies and Standard Oil
 In the case of Haskell Hearst told not one single fact that had not been threshed out in the campaign in that state when the governor ran for that office. All of the muck was dug up at lat time and finally laid away thTcurh the vote given for Haskell at the Lolls. Hearst simply dug it up, ex- hibited 1t 10 the whole country, and compelled Haskeil to resign, not be- cause of the merits of the charges, but as a matter of policy to save the

are judging him His recent course
 has been a deliberate, repeated, monu-
 mental violation of the most cherished American traditions.
 Theodore Roosevelt forced his own ca~didate on 9 national convention of his party. The people looked on in
 grim disapproval. He foisted his
 choice for governor on the resentful
 Republicans of the great state of New
 York. The protest was stern. He
 did not heed the warning. He took
 the control of the campaign out of the hands of it's managers. He made his
 man Taft pawn on the political chessboard. The public was dumb with astonishmeut. The lumiEated candidate found refuge in silence. But danger rockets of alarm and indigna-
 ton rose from the more outspoken
 wing of the Republican press. Theodore Roosevelt neither watch. |. ed nor cared. He took the typewriter
 as he might have taken the stump. He
 usurped the field of controversy. Then f he dragged the dignity of his high office in the dust of descending to raEid paTtisanship and coarse recrimi, E4ation.

TO THE SUPREME COURT.
Case Of Charles Rocker VIII Be Again
Submitted.

For the second time the case of
Charles Rocker. charged with murder,
Will be submitted to the supreme court
during the January term. The case
is one of the most peculiar that has
ever been submitted. Rocker is ac-
cused of numbering August Schroeder,
German farmer, near Sibley, in Lynn
county, on June 20. 1900 Rocker was
farm hand for Schroeder and after
the murder married the widow. Later
in drunken sleep, Mrs. Rocker over
heard him talking in his sleep, in
which he disclosed all the details of
the murder.
In the morning she confronted him
with the facts, and Rocker calmly ad-
mitted the truth and pulled out re-
volver and was about to kill her. She
escaped and informed the county Of
ficials. Rocker was sentenced to be
hanged, but the supreme court re-
versed the case because it was shown
that the county attorney had acted as
attorney for Rocker when Rocker had
sued for Islander the brothers of
Schroeder for circulating the report
that he had committed the murder.
On the second trial Rocker was
again convicted and again has ap.
pealed to the supreme court

there was no mistake, after all, and he

a weakening physical sickness sweep
over him till his eye fell upon sodden
garment which Helen had removed
from her brothers shoulders and re-
placed with dry one. He snatched
1t from the floor and in a sudden fury
felt 1t come apart in his hands like
wet tissue paper.

scanning the trampled soil Ivy light of

the drizzlc had not yet erased. He
