Morksmanship and the Militia
By Fredric J. Haskin.

the army officials think that its
 strength could be brought up to i0O.-
 900 by recruiting trained men in case of war, thus forming a trained army
 of 250.000 men. the nucleus of the
 vast army of citizen soldiery that
 could be put into the field. The or
 ganized militia is now getting S2,00O.-
 600 q year toward its support from
 the Federal government. In addition
 to this S1,000.000 a year has been ap-
 propriated by Congress for the hold
 ing of army manoeuvers, in which the
 organized militia is permitted to uar-
 ticipate. The s2.000.00o a year appro.
 priated for the National Guard allows
 approximately nineteen dollars per
 man on the basis of the present mem-
 bership. exclusive of the expenses at- tached to the attendance and partic- ipation in the army manoeuvers. Where troops are already equipped for actual field service they will be al- lowed sS.33 q year for clothing. The National Militia Board, created last spring by Congress. for the purpose of studying all questions relating to the militia. and reporting thereon tc Congress, with such recommendations as it may deem wise. has decided unanimously that the National Guard cannot be properly equipped with the S2,000 900 year appropriated for that purpose by Congress.
 This same board has made a recom- mendation which is of interest to every body. The practice has always been to call out the regular army first. then volunteers, and the militia lost They ] recommend that this be changed, and that the organized militia get the call I following the regular army. The
 board thinks that their service in the National Guard entities them to this and that being trained soldiers, the necessities Of the service require that
 they should be brought into the field in advance of the untrained volunteers whose will to serve their country is Iprobably stronger than their untratned liability.
 | There never has been 6 time when
 the organized militia was on such a good footing In the United States as it
 is under the new militia law. After
 1910 1t will be on par with the regular
 army In the matter of equipment, dis.
 cipline. and in short in everything that
 goes to the making up of an effective
 soldiery. An awakened interest is also
 being taken in the naval militia. and
 while 1t has never been given the op- Iportunity to develop itself into an ef- tective, lighting force, such as has bean afforded the land militia, those interest
 Cd m It believe that the day of better
 things is at hand. and that Congress is
 becoming awakened to the importance Iof 1t. The naval militia proved its worth fin
 the Spanish American war. Trained
 70 sea service they were at once at
 nome on the converted cruisers and
 other vessels which were put into ser vice in that emergency, and demon
 strated the importance of having some
 .nlns beside raw material. On the whole, there never was a time when 1 the Star spangled Banner has had such
 liberal arrangements in time of peace Tor It's defense in time of war

 He Is survived by his aged wife and two grown sons who reside in sections unknown and who were not present at the obsequies.
 The departure of Rev. D J. Black well of the Presbyterian Church for a vacation trip leaves all of the church. es Of the city except perhaps the Wash. ington Street Methodist Church on the south side without pastor. There were no services at any of the up- town churches today and the minis ters were keenly missed by the various attendants
 The ladies of the Episcopal Church have under advisement the matter of having the young men organize an ani- ateur minstrel company to give a per- formance for the beneft of the building fund of the new structure which Is fast gaining fair headway and which they are anxious to have continue.
 It IS highly probable that this or some other similar entertainment will occupy the board at the ChautauQua Theatre at an early date this fall.
 The entertainment given by the Children's Guild of the Episcopal Church yesterday afternoon was a de- cfded success and was highly interest ing and entertaining. Tn the egg race contest little Miss Rhetta johnson won the prize and in the peanut hunt Mas ter J. B. Gilbert and little Miss Berta Crawford bore off the trophy of vic- tory.

vance, to prepare for these rushes of business. There is never a time, except when some unusual event happens unexpectedly, that an operator ever has more than she can do.
 When you take the telephone receiver of the hook light burns in front of the operator. This is the signal that subscriber wishes her attention. If two or three lights appear.simultaneously she answers them as rapidly as she can reach them. If there are an unusual number of calls the operators on each side take some of them and the supervisor in the rear steps n and helps. So there is no possibility of any call being neglected.
 By visiting one of our exchanges you can see how ali this is done and it will be much clearer to you. You will be interested in every feature of telephone operating after your visit.

EFFECTS OF PROMISED COOL WAVE ARE FELT

The influence of the cool wave from the west is still being felt, and will probably continue to be felt through today. Yesterday was comfortable enough for the month of August. The thermometer did no great acrobattc stunt, neither did it's companion hn- nidity. A delightful breeze blew most of the time, and many went to the parks to enjoy Sunday afternoon.
 On Saturday night the farmers in the immediate vicinity were 5oyed by the sound of rain pattering on their roofs, and the city folks were made happy by the same sound. In addition to the rain, which was intermittent most all night. the clouds still finger ed most of the day.
 The prediction for today is stfll in line. The effects of the cool wave will still be felt in this section of the state and southland.

BLAZE STARTS IN
 PAINTERS MATERIAL
Home of pr. Thigpen Was Threatened
 Yesterday Morning.

Ignited in peculiar sashion, some oil and waste in front room of the>house of pr. c. A. Thigpen, South Perry street famed up early yesterday morn ing producing large blaze and for a time threatening the destruction Of the building. An alarm was sent into the fire department and the prompt ar- rival of several of the companies pre- vented any serious damage. Except for the scorching of the ceiling of the room in which the flames originated no loss was sustained.
 The presence of the combustible ma terials in the house was due to the fact that some painting was being done about the house. The oil and waste had been left in the room over Sun- day.
 In what manner the blaze started is not known. Discovered about e:30 o'clock in the morning it is difficult to explain how the material was ignfted The room was unoccupied.
