For Wearing Slit Skirt
Richmond Girl is Held

Richmond, Va, July 16.-On a
warrant charging indecent expo
sure, Mayor Ainslie and Police
Chief Werner this afternoon
made the first arrest on record
for the wearing of slit skirts.
Blossom Browning is the name
the blonde young woman gave at
the station house. Women friends
bailed her for appearance before
Justice Churchfeld in the morn
ing.
The crowd following her was
blocking Richmond's Broadway
in the picture show section when
the girl was arrested.
She claimed that her dress was
the fashion, was bought in a
licensed department store and
suited her tastes, and she has re-
tanned counsel to defend her.

Grams this afternoon, j. W. Pres
ton of Macon was elected CON-
mander-in-chie of the Georgia
division. Gen. l.. Davenport was
placed in nomination, but in an
eloquent and touching speech he
declined and Col. Preston was
elected without opposition.
Brigade commanders elected
we're as follows: Northern brigade
VI. G. Martin, Atlanta; eastern
brigade, j. A. Thomas, Dublin:
cavalry commander E. Gilmore.
When the matter of selecting
the meeting place for the 1914 re-
union was reached it was found
that not a single invitation had
been extended by any city in
Georgia. Consequently the place
of meeting and the time was left
to committee to be appointed by
the new commander.

Change MADE IN
LOCATNGNEW
TROOPS

The 55th company, Coast Artillery
Corps, which reached Oahu last week,
will not be stationed at Fort De Rus
sy, as originally planned. For the
time being the company will garrison
Fort Armstrong, overlooking the en-
trance to Honolulu farbor, the change
of station being scheduled for today.
Major E. J. Timberlake, command
ing the coast defenses of Oahu, de-
cided that it would be to the advan-
tage. of his command to place the new
corners at Armstrong, and his plan
was approved by General Funston, de-
partment commander Heretofore the
guns at Fort Armstrong have been
by small detachment from
Fort Ruger, and later from Fort De
Russy.
The officers of the 55th company
will, for the present, remain in quar-
tiers at De Russy, taking turns doing
a tour of duty as officer of the day at
Fort Armstrong There is room for
the company to be comfortably fixed
under canvas at Fort Armstrong, and
the location of the post, on the water
front. and within few minutes walk
of the center of the city, makes it one
of the most desirable for the men of
the command.
