Flock to saloons.

Immediately after supper the MILF
tiamen, having received Their priv.
ilege of camp leave. began their in
spection of the village. The swing
ing doors proved too tempting after
the days exertipn, and patrons of the
saloons were numerous. With thirsts

Lawn Fete interrupted.

Mayor Wentzell. however, had not
terminated his troubles. Having set
Chief White and the palfry galioping
over the undulating streets of the
town, he turned to find Father Gil
keson, pastor of st. Peters Catholic
Church. appealing for aid. The rector
tlrat several of the militia
men. had rambled (the charge of in
toxication Still holding) into the par
ish lawn fete and converted that so
cial function into stag party by
frightening away all feminine pa
irons But what could the mayor do
His police department was madly gal
Looping elsewhere.
Noncommissioned officers, who had
witnessed the raid upon the drug
store, went forth and rounded up nine
privates whose pockets bulged with
pictorial loot, and compelled them to
make restoration, much to the allie
Walton of Mr.. Erwin's disturbed con
ditlon of mind and body. While Gen.
Harries, when called on the telephone
said that he had not personally been
advised of the trouble, it is expected
that future visits of his men to Har-
pers Ferry win be more orderly.
The District Natioal Guard made
CANT yesterday shortly after o'clock
and Old Glory was unfurled in front
of brigade headquarters. The brigade
was assembled on the parade grounds
later in the afternoon for genera!
review. This gave Gen. Harries, who
Is commanding the troops, the oppor-
tunity to inspect the men at work,
and he expressed himself as much
pleased with the showing that they
made. The First regiment band gave
concert, which was we'll attended
between z and $50 in the evening,
and arrangements have been made for
one of the two bands to repeat the
performance each evening while the
camp lasts Dress parade will be held
each day for the benefit of visitors
to the camp.
Hackmen running between the
camp and Harpers Ferry have cut
their rate from 81 to rs cents, and
from all indications visitors will no
longer be gouged when they come up
to see their friends.
