Warning to Natural Gas Customer.

Owing to the severe cold weather this
winter and the ground being frozen
deeper than usual and as the service
lines from the street..to the houses are
not more than twelve ore ghteen hicres
in depth, we find in several cases where
the frost is deeper than the service lines
there is more or less danger of the lines
pulling part ard causing leaks.
The Gas Company is doing everything
possible to prevent any leaks Of this
kind and will take this opportunity to
notify all customers of Natural Gas, to
use every precaution against accidents
and should they detect the odor OF gas
at any time, to Immediately shut off
the gas at the meter and notify the
Gas COMPANY at once. We particularly
caution YOU not to look for leak with
a light.

to the people Of Portugal our sincere
sympathy in the violence and bitter

Training the Armies.

THE time required for the training
Of armies depends largely on the pres
ence of trained instructors. If there
be Il corps of trained officers the prob
lem of training is limited to the train
ing of the private soldier. This can
be accomplished i'll Il relatively short
time. and under sIlch conditions, if
respectable army can be formed within
six months. But where the leaders
themselves are unframed. and where
officers and men must alike stumble
toward efficiency without intelligent
guidance. the formation Of an efficient
army Is question Of years.

Plans arc submitted for tire military
protection of the Panama canal, with
troops enough to successfully oppose a
landing force.
The minimum peace garrison necessary
for the canal is as follows: Three reei-
ments of infantry at the maximum
strength. one battalion of field artillery
Ithree batteries, ON" squadron of cav
airy. one signal company, one engineer
company, one ambulance company. one
field hospital ard eighteen companies of
coast artillery.
Regarding the policy of concentra ting
troops at important strategic points, ,hc
report says:
''Thes" requirements can best BIZ me:
by correcting the present dispersion OF
the army. The army is now scattered i'm
forty nine posts. Ii should be segregated
into d"tachmcnts of all arms. each of
which can b" readily assembled for team

Since our conflict with Spain practi
cally all the principal nations OF the

To secure ollr country from Invasion ::

REFERRING to tho necessity for lnrreaE-
ing the army and militia. it is argued
that AT the outbreak of with a

should be- capable Of mobilizing Al once

drafted about two months more are re-
quired to fit him for service.
