70 MILES FROM CAPITAL

WASHINGTON. June 2s.-Troopers
at Fort Myer have begun prepara-
lions for their 70-mile march into the
Shenandoah Valley next month to
participate in maneuvers expected to
result in reorganization of the mount
ed forces of the army.
The Shenandoah Valley, where
Phil" Sheridan made his famous ride
so years ago, has been chosen as the
bloodless battle ground for the test.
For two months this summer a full
brigade of cavalry and battery Of
horse artillery will maneuver and
fight" over the red roads, the green
hills, and fields near Winchester.
The department has leased a tract
of ground one mile broad and two
miles long in the heart Of the Shen-
andoah. 20 miles away, and orders
were issued to the troops some time
ago.
OgIethorpe Troopers on March.
Two regiments of the brigade, those
from Fort Ethan Allen, VT, and Fort
Oglethorpe, Ga, must ride 700 dusty
miles under a summer sun before they
can reach the valley, and they must
report July 20. The First Squadron
from Fort Myer viii have only 20
miles to go. and the horse battery
from Fort Riley, Kans., will be sent
by rail
Secretary Garrison will be a fire.
quent spectator. Major General Wood,
chief of staff, United States Army,
probably will spend much time there,
and President Wilson may make the
trip.
The necessity for rehabilitation of
the cavalry was disclosed when the
general staff some time ago made
ambitious plans for the reorganiza-
ton of the army SO as to prepare it
for the defense of the country against
attack by any great military power.
This resulted in the sending to Eu-
rope last year of board of six cav
airy officers, who studied the German,
Russian, Austro- Hungarian, French
and English organizations.
Officers Study Abroad.
Four months were spent abroad by
these officers and since their return
they have prepared plans for radical
changes in the organization and use
Of cavalry of the American army.
The tests will take place under the
direction OF Colonel &. h. Murray, OF
the Twelfth Cavalry, as Brigadier
General E. J. McClernand, the head of
the cavalry board, is prohibited from
exercising actual command by virtue
of his retirement General McCler-
nand, however, with Lieutenant Colo
nels ]. T. Dickmann and Fred S. Fol-
ia. Major Jesse Mel. Carter and
Captain Frank Parker. all members
of the board which studied the Euro
pean systems. will be present.
Some of the practical questions to
be worked out are:
How large a command can a cap
tain handle successfully?
How many such units can colonel
handle to the best advantage under
conditions approximating hostilities?
The new formation Of the cavalry
into double ranks also will be tried
out on a large scale, a practical test
by Captain Parker. of the Eleventh
Cavalry, at Fort Huachuca, Ariz,
with an experimental squadron hav-
ing been pronounced complete sue
cess by General H. L. Scott.

But Comes to Grief on Bridge.
Firemen Rescue Him.

ST. PAUL June 2s.-Bent on see
ing the world. a horse belonging to
Roland Folk, s1S Jackson Street, for
sock his stall and hit the ties" on
the 500 line tracks leading eastward
out of st. Paul He had reached the
middle Of the long trestle near Cort-
land and Maryland Streets when his
feet missed the ties and he found
himself struggling for freedom with
out avail.
Before he was freed he had sue
ceeded in tying up traffic in both d.
rections for nearly an hour, and the
500 passenger train from Chicago,
with more than 800 passengers on
board. WAS compelled to wait.
His predicament was first discover
ed by section crew passing over the
bridge. The men worked over the
horse for nearly half an hour before
they called upon John A. Moak, ami
NAL agent of the humane society. He
used all devices at his command to
no avail. Meanwhile the 900 passen-
gers on the train, as well as the en-
gineer and conductor, were getting
somewhat impatient.
Then some one suggested that the
fire department might be called to
help the horse down. Hook and Lad
der Company No. 9 responded to the
call. Raising their ladders to the
trestle with the aid of a few ropes
and a large squad of volunteers, the
ffremen soon hal him bound and let
him down safely to the ground be-
low. The train then proceeded.

BILL
 IS VERY DRASTIC

One of the most drastic prohibition measures ever introduced in the legis- lature of Arkansas, was the one intro duced yesterday, known as Senate bill Mo- 11S. It was the pet measure of 19 senators and has been read twice.
 It provides no liquor license shall be issued unless the citizens of the county have voted license and then not until the applicant for license presents to the county court or city council pe- tition signed by a majority of the adult white inhabitants in the city or town in which the license is sought.
 "Provided, further, that said peti- tion referred to in this act, together with all names and addresses signed thereto, shall have been first publish ed in at least two issues of some news paper published in the town, city or county, in which said petition was cir culated, for at least 10 days before the said court acts upon the petition" |"

BASKETBALL HOOTERS"
 ANNOY RESIDENTS

As a result of petition presented to the city council Tuesday night by residents in the neighborhood of the armory, the Conway basketball bugs" may be forced to abandon the "dribble and shoot sport, as there is no other place available where the games can be played.
 The petitioners claim that the spec tators make so much noise while root ing" for their team that they are un- able to pass the fore part of the night peaceably. However, it is thought. an agreement will be made between the basketball managers and the petition CTS whereby the games may be played amid less cheering on the part of the patrons.

COMPLETE BALLOT FOR u. s. SENATOR ROBINSON VOTE IS r TEN SENATORS CHANGE THEIR VOTE AFTER FIRST BALLOT
 YESTERDAY.

Little Rock, Jan. 30.-Governor Joe T. Robinson was elected to the United States senate for the long term with five votes to spare. While the Repub- llcans went to him on the second ballot. taken jointly by the two houses at noon Wednesday, it was the vote of a Democrat, Representative Shackleford of Clark, that gave him the required number.
 At the conclusion of the joint bal Hot, he had 62 votes, loss of one from the first ballot. The vote then stood |: Robinson 46, Brundidge 26, Norwood 15, Kirby 8, Russell 4, w. H. Martin of Hot Springs l, Oldfeld 1, c. E. Taylor 1, in the house.
 The vote of the senators was as fol- lows: Robinson 16, Brundidge g, Kir- by 7, Norwood 2, c. E. Taylor 1.
 There were 133 votes cast on the joint ballot, the only absentees being Cornell of Faulkner, called home by sickness, and Davis of Columbia, call ed home by the death of his father. This made 67 votes necessary to elect, and Governor Robinson was five short of the goal. There had been only a few changes from the ballot of Tues day when the house voted separately.
 Then the expected happened. It had been rumored that the four Republi- can members, who had been voting for Andrew J. Russell, would change. The landslide was started by Moore of Newton, who changed to Robinson, quickly followed by Evans of Searcy, Smith of Crawford and Keck of Mad ison. This gave the governor 66, and only one short of election. By this time the house and the galleries were in an uproar which President Old ham was unable to stop. Several men were on the floor seeking recognition. Way back toward the door man of small stature was trying to make him. self heard above the din. It was Shackleford of Clark. Finally he an- nounced that he desired to change from Norwood to Robinson. Then the din and tumult were redoubled, and the presiding officers were unable to secure silence long enough to an- nounce the result.
 It was generally believed that Rob- 1nson was elected, but many were not sure. Then Davis of Cleburne, who had been voting for Norwood, changed to Robinson. With members throng- ing about him, Josephs of Miller made his voice heard above the roar: q will not be responsible for a deadlock. l desire to change from Kirby to Rob- inson." He was followed by Mum of Nevada, who changed from Kirby to Robinson, and Cantrell of Scott. changing from Norwood, and bringing the governors vote up to Fl. The last change announced was Senator Going, who had nominated Norwood in the senate, who changed to Robinson, making the total vote for the Lonoke statesman on the official roll call 72.
