of Norwich University start this
morning for the State Fair at White
River Junction, where they are
scheduled to give a series of drills
nd military exhibitions for the four
days on which the grounds are open
to the public. Instead of attending
other fairs, as they have done in the
past, they will make the long Journey
on foot, a trip of nearly sixty miles.
REGULATIONS were suspended yes
terday to allow the boy soldiers an
pportunity of packing their belong
ings and equipment in shape to be
hipped this morning on the special
rain which leaves Mortified at s O5.
he train will consist of five coach
s, four box cars for the horses and
baggage car. All the students with
he exception of the football players,
were detailed to duty on the long ar
my wagons in which the goods were
being moved to the waiting train
Captain Chapman, u. S. A, de-
! allied to special duty at the Univer-
ity by the War Department, said
yesterday that nearly 200 men would
make the trip, with thirty horses
nd a considerable quantity of bag
age. The train will arrive at White
River Junction about noon, when
camp will Immediately be pitched on
he fair grounds but on a different
lite than last year and the year be-
fore. Instead of making camp on
he hill inside the enclosure the tents
will be pitched near the east fence.
The horses will be given quarters in
he stables but the men will live
through their four days stay at
White River in the regulation army
tents. The order of the day will in
clude three exhibition drills. The
first of these will be morning drill
at $50, which will last one hour
The second will be the big event of
he day and is scheduled for 1920
when the much-talked of Norwich
cavalry will be seen in action in all
manner of fancy and rough riding.
The entire command will leave for
home on Friday at 2 o'clock. The
distance, which amounts to some
thing like sixty miles, will be made
n foot. The first days march will
be to Sharon, a distance of eight
miles. Camp will be pitched there
for the night and the command will
start early the next morning for
South Royalton, eleven miles dis
lance. Sunday will be spent there
and the cadets will be marched to

hike, and Wednesday the longest
) march of the whole trip will be un-
Certaken to reach the University
hill" before nightfan. This last lap
| the march is eighteen miles in
> ength and will be reached, it is ex-
ected, by Wednesday night
Studies will not begin until Friday
morning. This hike will be the last
OF the fall season as the cadets will
ttend no other fairs this fall. A
urious fact connected with the trip

sharon, Pa. March 2O.-Frank Il.
Bull. the millionaire uncle OF William
Whitla. the eisht-year-old son of At
torney James I. Whitla. of this city.
who was kidnapped from school and
taken away by his abductor or alb
ductors in a buggy. left for Cleveland.
II has been reported FROM that city
that two men and a boy answering the
description Of the kidnappers and their
victim have been seen there. cOnse-
Quently the supposition is that Mr.
Bull has received word which makes
him believe his nephew is In Cleveland
or that vicinity. The buggy in which
the child was taken from this place
vas locoted at Warren. O., and as the
Cleveland papers were among those
specified in which the demand of the
kidnsppers for a $40 900 ransom should
be answered by a personal advertise
ment. all evidence seems TO indicate
that developments in the mysterious
case will center about the lake city.
Mr.. Shilling. who is associated with
Mr. Whitla in the search for the lat
ter's son. gave out the following state
ment:
Nothing new has developed The rig
in which the men carried the boy away
Was found in front OF livery stable
in Warren. .. Where the party left
the buggy is not known. as no one saw
them in il at this point. The buggy
contained new cap which apparently
had not been worn. Il was not the cap
OF young Whitla as at first reported.
While the police in the near cities
and towns were promptly set to work.
yet Mr.. Whitla is not pushing matters
vigorously. his great wish being 10 get
his boy back. He is hoping that the
parties having the boy in custody will
at once open negotiations for his
speedy return"
The lawyer and his close friends and
associates in the kidnapping investiga-
ton refuse TO give out for publicity
the second letter received from the.
ktdnappers. Il is said. however. that
the letter threatened instant death to
the boy should its contents be made
public or shown 10 detectives. II is
also minated that the letters con
tained something which had TO do with
the method in which the money was to
be paid over TO the kidnappers In ad-
dition TO the two men. IL is rumored
here that woman is implicated in
the case.
