CLAIMS MILITIA
POORLY EQUIPPED
Gen. Mills Says Many Lack
Sufficient Uniforms and
War Munitions.

Washington. D. C.. Nov. Should
the organized militia be called into
United States service, the troops would
be sent to mobilization camps without
SUFFICIENT uniforms to provide each SOL
dier Of the minimum strength with one
suit of outside clothing"
This was the warning sounded by the
war department in a circular directed
today to national guardsmen by Brig
zen. A. l. Mills, chief of the division OF
militia affairs. The circular further re-
cited that at the last inspection this
yaer, nine states did not have sufficient
clothing to provide one uniform for
each of the 100 enlisted militiamen re-
CURED to be maintained for each SEN
ator and representative.
ArEss Also Insufficient.
Thirty-nine states did not have suffi-
Gent clothing to provide one uniform
Tor each enlisted man OF the minimum
authorized strength. The authorized
strength formerly was IS men for each
infantry company, which is now to be
increased to 60.
A number of other states lack suffi-
clent arms and equipment for their
minimum authorized strength. he stated

raised, and the schooner Betty set her
sails for the southwest. Barnes real
lied that to save the girl she must
have doctor who knew his business
Mrs. Barnes would know how to care
for the girl, once she knew what the
trouble was. There would be some
news in the papers. A young and
beautiful woman did not jump from
big Atlantic liner without the newspa-
pers getting hold of the facts.
A fair wind carried the Betty into
her haven, and shortly after Florence
was sleeping peacefully in a feather
bed, ancient, it is true, but none the
less soft and inviting. In all this time
she had not spoken single word.

the motherly Mrs. Barnes. What

you in my minds eye, in calm wealth

I'm goin' int tn village an bring

The village doctor shook his grizzled
head gravely.
She's been hurt and shocked at the
same time. 1t will be many days be-
fore she comes around to herself. Jdst
let her do as she pleases. Only keep
an eye on her so that she doesn't wan
der of and get lost. I'll watch the
newspapers and if come across any
thing which bears upon the case I'll
notify you"
But he searched the newspapers in
vain, for the simple fact that he did
not think to glance over the old ones.
The village took a good deal of in
terest in the affair. They gossiped
about it and strolled out to the Barnes
cottage to satisfy their curiosity One
thing was certain to their simple
minds: some day Barnes would get a
great sum of money for his kindness.
They had read about such things in
the family story paper She was rich

Florence was soon able to walk
about. Ordinary conversation she
seemed to understand; but whenever
the past was preached she would
shake her head with frowning eyes.
Her main diversion consisted of sitting
on the sand dunes and gazing out at
sea.
One day stranger came to town.
He said he represented life insur-
ance company and was up here from

surrounded by an admiring audience.
The stranger had been all over the

iarly of st. Petersburg, vladivostok.
Shanghai, as the villagers-some of
them-might have spoken of Boston.
There were one or two old timers
among the audience. They had been
to all these parts. The stranger knew
what he was telling about. After tell
ing of his many voyages he asked If
there was good bathing beach near

take hand in. So the following night
he departed for Boston, from there to
New York. He proceeded at once to
the apartment of the princess, where
Braine declared that he himself would
go to the obscure village and claim
Florence as his own child. But to
insure absolute success they would
charter Morse's yacht and steam right
up into the primitive harbor.
When Vroon left the apartment Nor
ton saw him. He was a man Of i'm
pulses, and he had found by expert
ence that first impulses are generally
the best. He did not know who Vroon
was. Any man who called on the
Princess Perigoff while Braine was
with her would be worth following.

"She probably was insane. That's
the way generally with insane people.
They can't see water or look off a

My business is insurance, and we've

"You amt tryin' to insure anybody
in town, are you?"
"Oh. no. No work for me when
I'm on my vacation. Well, I'm going
to bed; and tomorrow morning I'll go
out to Captain Barnes beach and have
a good swim. I'm no sailor, but like
water"
He honestly enjoyed swimming.
Early the next morning he was in the
water, frolicking about as playfully as
a boy. He had all the time in the
world. Over his shoulder he saw two
women wandering down toward the
beach. Deeper he went, farther out.
He was bold swimmer, but that did
not prevent sudden and violent attack
Of cramps And it was a rare piece
of irony that the poor girl should save
the life of that scoundrel who was
without pity or mercy. AS she saw

The code was really Slav; and when

The day after the news came that
Florence had jumped overheard off
the banks, Vroon with a dozen other
men had started out to comb all the
fishing villages along the New Eng
land coast. Somewhere along the way
he felt confident that he would learn
whether the girl was dead or alive.
If she was dead then the game was a
draw, but If she was alive there was
still a fighting chance for the Black
Hundred. He had bad some idea of re-
