Cams Dry Humor.

When the gallant Welsh captain
David Gam was sent forward by
Henry " to reconnoiter the French
army before the battle of Agincourt
he found that the enemy outnumbered
the English by about five to one. His
report to the king is historic:
There are enough to be killed.
enough to be taken prisoners and
enough to run away"
This quaint forecast of the result of
the battle at once spread through the
camp. and doubtless every yeoman
archer of the valiant company felt an
inch taller We know that it was al
most literally justified by the event.
Poor Cams dry humor was equaled
by his courage. He was killed while

FUTURE WARS WILL
BE SUDDEN. HE SAYS

Berlin.-Count Reventlow, the en-
inent naval expert, writing on the
outbreak of war, states:
I'VE in Germany must not be blind
to the fact that in naval warfare the
period of straightforward, honest dec
clarations of war. or of open prep
arations for war. has gone by for
ever. 1t will certainly be the object
of the assailant to begin hostilities
by a surprising and, If possible.
demoralizing blow against the enc
my. That must never be forgotten.
'Regrettable as it may be, there
is today certainly no naval expert
who is not convinced that the next
war will begin with such a breach
OF international law, and at mo-
ment when the enemy least expects
an attack"

.PAUC|Ty OF MEN IN
UNCLE SANS NAVY
NOT ENOUGH SAILORS
TO MAN WARSHIPS
Forty Five Thousand Now in Service
Not Adequate-Two Cruisers Have
Only Single Crew Between Them
Naval Militia Necessary to Solve
Problem,

Washington.-In the development
of the navy the United States has
reached a point at which it is neces-
sary for congress to stop and con-
slider.
1t is no longer question of build
ing battleships but a question of
manning them. Already the navy has
forty-five thousand men, but the
number is insufficient to man the
ships now at sea and those that are
soon to go into commission. To Sc
cure a crew for the Michigan, which
IL soon join the Atlantic fleet, it
was necessary to place the New York
in reserve. On the Pacific coast there
are two cruisers, the Milwaukee and
Charleston, which have but a single
crew. When one goes to sea the 9TH
er must remain fast to the dock. To
keep them all in trim the navy has
adopted the policy of taking them
out in turns.
Within the next few months three
battleships. in addit on to the Michi-
gan, will be ready to join the fleet.
These are the South Carolina. a sister
ship of the Michigan. and the two gi-
ant battleships, North Dakota and
Delaware. These will require COM
plement of at least 500 men each. and
at the present time there are none in
sight. To place them in comm ssion
ii will be necessary to reduce the
crews of the ships now afloat, or
place three. of the four new battle
ships in reserve.
The same condition prevails in all
the fleets of the navy. More than
dozen submarines and torpedo boat
destroyers have been added to the
reserve list during the past summer
and If ordered back in commiss ;on
agar they would be under manned
unless congress should take steps to
supply the shortage.
The additional number of men
needed will require an increase in
the pay list of approximately $780,
600 annually, representing the in
come on s6,000,000
To overcome this condition. at
least in time of war. congress will
probably be called upon to place the
naval militia on the same basis the
state national guards bear to the ar
my. The federal government will be
asked to supply equipment and bear
the expense of summer maneuvers
while the militia will be made sub
ject to the call of the president.
This question is now in the hands
of Commander C. c. Marsh, who is
perfecting a plan by which the nj
litia will have opportunity for suffi-
cient practice during the summer
maneuvers to enable them to man the
guns of the battleships. This latter
requires expert knowledge.
Without a trained reserve. in case
of war, the navy would be helpless
in manning the sh' ps which are now
in reserve. The civilian blue jack
cts have shown remarkable aptitude
in handling the guns and have made
excellent records where they have
been given an opportunity
1t is believed that a scheme for
taking off one-fourth of the regular
crews of battleships and replacing
them by militia, allowing the trained
men to take charge of the ships in
reserve, will be practicable.

Mrs. Maud Baney or Johnson is
still being held at .the county jail.
Though her case was supposed TO have
been argued before the governor of
the state at Salem yesterday, no word
has yet been received in this city as
to the result of the hearing. 1t is be-
lieved therefore. that Governor Ben
son has taken the matter of granting
the requisition under advisement. The
woman is not complaining or making
any trouble and is apparently making
the best of her position.

NEWS FROM MISSOURI
Eioht for a Sane Fourth.

An organization fight to prevent the
sale and discharge of dangerous explo-
sives during the Fourth of July period
aud to bring about sane celebratioo
of independence day, was begun at
mass meeting in ST. Louis. A COM
mittee was appointed to meet early
next week to bring about concerted
action for a sane Fourth. Archbishop
Glennon made a strong plea for more
sensible celebration of the signing OF
the Declaration OF independence. He
jocularly said it seemed that a return
to barbarism was the only explana-
ton of the apparent love for carnage
and noise. He strongly urged united
action and suggested to give the day
a religious turn to make it more
sacred. He centered his argument on
the lack of reason for the present
methods What relation there is, )"
he said, between the exploding OF
fire crackers and the celebration of in
dependence l can not see. There is no
evidence of patriotism in the fire OF
guns and giant crackers or in the an.
nual crop of tetanus victims The ceie-
orator is not hero II he escapes, be-
cause he must run to escape, and he Ia
not a hero if he gets tetanus. The
day should be time for the bringing
in of the better truths"
