the problem how TO keep the militia up
to a lighting standard, but a fraction
below that of the regular army. There
have been what seemed insUperable OBJ
stacles in the way of accomplishment.
on the whole, the militia officers and
their peculiar methods OF training their
men were held TO be rhe chief fault.
This year the citizen soldiers, men who
obtain their livelihood through a wide
variety Of occupations, are to stand
shoulder 10 shoulder and side by side
with veterans Of the standing amy;
they are 70 bunk with them, attack and
repulse the enemy beside them, To dig
trenches and do the manual of arms,
pitch tents and make practice marches
with them, eat the same food and an
swer 10 the call of the same bugle blast
and all this under the watchful eye Of
regular officers who know their little
book and say the plan is bound TO bear
fruit
VIII Be Unique
For the District militia these August
field maneuvers viii be unique. The
local guardsmen have already done
their military trick with the regulars,
but never on so magnificent scale as
this year. Nor have they ever Travelled
so far before by transport, nor been
engaged in series of maneuvers
against an Atlantic coast defense. These
are among the reasons. therefore, that
both officers and men are alive TO the
unusual situation, and will go fully pre-
pared TO make this a resl test Of their
mettle.
Such of the arrangements for the
maneuvers as have been prepared have
been announced by Brig. Gen. George

hagndtD Will Reap Harvest
from Holiday Dates This Year

When the baseball schedule makers
start work on the dates for this season
they will be confronted with a rather
funny proposition.
In 1909 the two big Holiday events
OF the year happen TO fall on Sunday
At glance IL would seem that this
was rather bad thing for the base
ball moguls, but such is far from be-
ing the case.
Ii is a rule that when a national
holiday falls on Sunday the following
day shall be the one recognized as
the day OF celebration. Thus baseball
patrons all over the country will cele'
brate Fourth OF July by seeing two
games on July 5th.
Last year both dates happened to
fall on Saturday, and as a result the
owners OF the different clubs suffered
quite heavily. In balloon Saturday
ig always good for big crowd under
any conditions. In compiling the
schedule. Saturday and Sunday dates
are always regarded as the choice
plums. Last year. however. on two
occasions IL was case OF losing big
crowds on Saturday, because the big
holidays happened to fall on that day.

ditions are sure to arise In the west.

BY PAUL II. BRUskE.

George Moriarty cost the Detroit
Baseball club considerably more than
pretty penny.
II President Nsvin gave up the price
Of bunch Of thrse-cent street car
tickets for the crack third-basem man, no
parted with at least $4,000, and moro
likely the .um 10 $4,000 bigger than
even that figure.
FOR A MAN WHO WAS NOT
EVEN A REG ULAR PLAYER ON
THE CLUB WHICH SOLD HIM, THIS
is PROFESSIONALLY A WORLDS
RECORD. The exact figure that fg.
ured In the deal is not 10 be given out

mum quoted above may be accepted
as conservative and the maximum Is.

George Moriarty, on the market Just
as ball player. was probably about a
$4,000 ball player, AS such he would
have been an interesting proposition
to at least four American league clubs.
DETROIT, HOWEVER, SIMPLY HAD
TO HAVE A THIRD BASEMAN.
There was but a scant hope OF develop.
ing one In the single season open for
experimenting. Morarity was worth
therefore considerably more than So
900 TO the Tigers. That this fact was
taken advantage OF 10 the utmost by
President Farrell. OF the New York
club, goes without saying. Magnates
In such deals always show proper
appreciation of the circumstances. It's
not question Of how much the man
is worth. Rather the limit Is set by
how much the team that wants the
man is willing to pay.
The formal notice of the elimination
of the deal creates no great consterna-
ton either here or In New York. II
was known that Detroit wanted the
man. IL was admitted that a strange
freak Of circumstances made him un-
necessary in New York. When Presi-
dent Navin really goes after q man

Brothers Meet AT er As Years.

You have often read, perhaps,
the meeting of brothers or sisters
who have been separated many
years. We have a story TO tell
you this week of a meeting of
brothers in this community who
had not met for nearly half a cen
fury.
John Williams Of Chanute, Kan
sas, and Aaron Williams, who lives
with his daughter, Mrs. w. F. Lynn
in the Miami bottoms are the prin-
cipal characters in this romance.
The former is II years old and he
and his good wife celebrated their
5Oth wedding anniversary a few
weeks ago at their home in Kan
sas. The latter has reached the
g of four score years and three.
In the late War of the Sections
these brothers wer arrayed a
gainst each other, John served in
the Union Army and Aaron was a
Confederate.
Forty-five years have passed
since these brothers separated and
went each one his way. Last week
when Aaron went to Dewitt to
meet his brother at the station he
walked along and passed him and
neither recognized the. other.
Both men were in town Satur-
day and we had the pleasure OF
talking with them. They are well
preserved men, enjoy good health
and seem enjoying their visit with
one another 70 the utmost extent
