WILL ATTACK SOUND
Extensive War Game Will
Open at Midnight.
PLANS OF BATTLESHIPS
Seventeen Will Try to Break the
Line From Montauk to Mar
thas Vineyard.

WATCH HILL. r. T.. July 1s.--The most
on this part of the Atlantic coast in nine
years will be declared at midnight to-
night, and for forty-eight hours there
after two squadrons will maneuver and
probably fight Theoretically for the pos
session OF the eastern entrance to Long
Island sound, or what has come to be
known as New York's back door
The game will be played principally for
the benefit of the amateur tars of eight
coastline states. Maine, Massachusetts,,
Rhode Island. Connecticut, New York,
New. Jersey, Pennsylvania and South
Carolina, and also from the District OF
Columbia. Assistant Secretary Beekman
winthrop of the navy will watch the
play from the cruiser Chicago.
The problem for the attacking blue
feet. composed of seventeen battleships
of the North Atlantic fleet, which has
been assembling at Provincetown. is to
penetrate a defensive line drawn from
Montauk point, through Block Island t.
Mans Land. six miles off Gay Head a
the southwestern extremity of Martha:
Vineyard.
The defending red fleet is composed
of cruisers and torpedo boats, and one
of the most formidable squadrons OF
submarines that has ever fought an enc.
my-sham or realm American waters.
The weather off here today favored the
attacking fleet, for a thick fog hung like
a curtain over Block Island and extended
we'll to the eastward.
Awaiting the Submarines.
Reports from GARDENERS bay. where thu
defending forces have been assembling
for the past two days. were to the enec'
that the naval militiamen were on their
respective ships, and that the fleet OF
submarines, composed OF the Grayllns
Bonita, Narwhal. Salmon, Snapper. Sting.
ray and Tarpon, had left Newport and
probably would reach the rendezvous
early in the afternoon.
1t was expected that the submarines
would go to sea at midnight and would
spend the greater part Of the next two
days off Block Island in search or the
attacking fleet, while the torpedo boats
and cruisers will establish secondary
line Of defense.
The battle will be fought without
the aid of wireless telegraphy, while
the naval militia men will be dis
tributed among the vessels Of both the
blue and red fleets.
Unlike the war game off the south
eastern New England coast nine years
ago, the contest this year is confined
to tho navy. and the army forts will
remain silent.

HOTELS IN PORTUGAL.
Paying Ones Bill There Becomes a

Paying Ones Bill There Becomes
Duel In PoIiteness.
When travelling for the first time in
Portugal one is apt to become eXas-
perated when he desires to settle up
with his landlord at the hotel. When
the traveller asks how much his bill is
the landlord. bows graciously, smiles
suavely, rubs his hands together and
replies that the bill is as much as the
guest wishes to contribute.
This is simply the opening of duel
Of pOliteness, for the hardened traveller
at once thanks the landlord for his con-
fidence in him and again very courte-
ously asks for detailed statement OF
his account. Still the bill is not forth
coming. for the landlord ,,eclares that
he does not wish to insult his guest in
any such manner. Finally the land
lord does reckon up the charges on his
fingers. When he has finished he asks
the traveller how much the sum total
is. If the traveller hasn't kept track OF
it the landlord very labOriously goes
over the account again. If the guest
has footed up the bill the landlord is
sure that it cannot be SO much and in
sists on a re-reckoning. The result is
the same, and the landlord invariab bly,
needs to bring two or three more fin
gers into use for items that had been
accidentally omitted.
Needless to state. the traveller not
| hardened to this process breathes q
deep sigh of relief when he escapes"

Medical experts, insurance men, edu-

health and happiness generally are in
favor of simpler living and a return to
nature. The mortality of adult age
of the period between forty and sixty

stress of modern life, to worry and
overwork, as some have supposed. 1t
is due, we are assured, to overeating
and bad diets. There is every reason
why we should live longer and be
healthier, for comforts are increasing
and inventions are lessening toll and
anxiety. But our very prosperity has
led to richer and ampler diets, and
there is where the mischief lies-there,
and in our indoor life. We shun ma
