'e Need Men to Enlist.
The number of men enlisted in the
District National Guard is more than
500 short of that desired, Colonel Smiley
says that in the District. as in all the
States. 1t is difficult to get men to en-
list. ......
The pay for drills is very small and
there are few inducements. He says
the average American Is not patriotic
in times of peace. He believes the men,
bership of The District Guard can be in-
creased with a new armory. Lieuten-
ant Smiley says the Center Market
arnory is very unsatisfactory as well
as unattraetive. The fumes from a re-
frigerating plant beneath come through
the floor.

picking a team to represent the Dis
tlict Guard at Camp Perry, Ohio, begin-
ming August g. have been shot on. As
a result of these matches. the officials
will receive Instructions three times a

Memorial Service for Cap

Court House.


Reverently observing the cay conse-
Grated to the memory of the first man
to fall under the Stars and Bars in the
great civil conflict of fifty years ago,
5000 ViLginians yesterday gathered at
Fairfax Court House for simple COM
memorative exercises. -.
"a To do honor to John Quincy Marr,
captain. c. s. A.. was the main reason
for the gathering of those OF d second
generation, and it was with tender
memories Of the battle in which this
son of the old South lost his life, and
of which this was the fiftietn annlver-
sary, that each simple feature Of the
day was carried out. ..-. ..r

Instructions From the, Texas

to Them.

With instructions from regular army
officers, and the thirteen officers in the
District National Guard whps have been
training with the troops ON the Mexican
border, the District Guard OF 1.7o0 men
will get real war training during their en-
campment this year. What the Of
ficers learn in Texas will be revealed to
them. Announcement has been made
that the two-weeks' encampment will be
from August 13 to q. The place has
not vet been selected. "'.f s@'t'" -
Lieut. Col. Samuel Smiley says the en-
campment will be different than last
year in that it will be exclusively for
the District National Guard. Last year
at Gettysburg guards of several States
were there together.
The War Department has been asked
to assign regular army, officers as in
structors at the encamL ment. A colonel
of the medical department, an officer Of
the signal corps and eleven infantry Of
ficers are training.

Of Orme's money.
His eyes glittered: . wide scar on
his forehead stood out Whitley. Sud-
denly he gave little cry and held up
a single bill. He jabbered excitedly
to his companion for q moment. then
spoke quietly to Orme.
This all we want" he said. we
are not thief. seeI put other i've

He thrust the selected bill into his
pocket. put the fresh bill In the
pocket book. and laid the pocket book
on the table.
"See here" said Orme. still prone.
what's the meaning of all this?"
Don't say" The japanese smiled.
He went over to the door. Come"
he said. The man astride Orme re-
leased his hold and sprang to his feet.
Like fash. both the Japanese dlsap-
peared.
Orme jumped up. SEEKING his
pocket book and his hat. he darted
after his assaiiants. At the street en-
rance to the tunnel. he looked quick
ly in both directions. but his men
were not in sight.
Pursuit was futile. Slowly he turned
back. He thought of notifying the
police. but, after all, he was none the
worse off-except for his promise to
Poritol and Alcatrante, now invOlun-
tarily broken. He must explain to
them as best he could. The marked
bill had been of no consequence to
him except as a focus of adventure.
And he had had about as much adven-
ture as he could expect for one eve
ming.
But the secret of the bill still tanta-

terror court On the farther side Of
the court were the doors Of the hotel
lobby. As q rule. carriages drove
through the tunnel into the court. but
Orme had not waited for this for
mality.
He started through the tunnel.
There was no one in sight. He noted
the elaborate terra-cotta decorations
of the walls, and marveled at the bad
taste which had lost sight Of this op-
portunity for artistic simplicity. But
through the opening before him he
could see the fountain playing in the
center of the court. The central fig
ure of the group, a naiad. beckoned
with hand from which the water fell
in a shower. The effect was not SO
unpleasing. II one wished to be
rocco. why not be altogether SO: Like
the South Americans? Was their
elaborate ornamentation plastered on
to an inner steel construction? Orme
wondered.
Midway of the tunnel, and at the
right as one entered. was a door lead
ing into the porter's office. This door
was shut, but as Orme approached 1t,
it noiselessly opened out. He ex-
pected to see a porter appear. and
when no person stepped over the sill,
he inferred that the door had been
blown open by an interior draft.
Just as he was turning out to 60
around the door-whlcn shut OF all
view of him from the inner court-a
figure shot through the opening.
Before Orme could dodge, he was
seized firmly by the shoulders and
jerked into the room, with a force
that sent him staggering. He tripped
over a chair and went to the floor, but
quickly scrambled to his feet and
wheeled about
Two men stood between him and
the door. which had been closed ST.
lently and swiftly. They were short
