SECRETARY GARRISON.

of the work is done in the morning,
leaving the afternoon largely free for
the men to use as they see fit.
This method worked out 50 success
fully at the camps last summer that
the army officials decided to prescribe
1t for this years camps. While many
men turned out last year, the number
was greatly increased when the camps
opened, The low cost of the months
outing, together with the great value
of the instruction offered and the phys
zeal benefits, have proved big induce
ment to collegians. The total expense
for equipment and other necessities
amounts to less than $50.
The war department has indorsed the
camps in the following statement:
1.-THE establishment of these student
camps has marked the adoption of Il
policy tending to promote a closer I'M
Outstanding between the army and the
civilian population of the country and
to give the college student an insight
into our military history and methods
which will be of value to him as a
citizen. Students will, as at West
Point, be on Il cadet status"
The camps are located at Burling-
ton, Vt; Ludington. Mich; Asheville,
N. c., and Monterey, Cal.
Specially instructed officers have
! been detailed by the war department
to give the collegians attending the
camps short course of wide range in
military instruction. Target practice
| features the work in the camps. The
| National Rifle Association of America,
| In order to stimulate interest in
craftsmanship, has offered medals for
| the students doing the best work
Companies at the camps are made
up, as far as possible. of students of
the same university. All companies
are commanded by regular army Off
GERS, who are aided by subaltern on
GERS selected from among the stu
dents themselves, preference being
given to students of the previous
| camps. The discipline exacted is strict
and just. The students are on ca
| Diet status-that is, treated with the
courtesy due prospective officers, but
subject to all rules and regulations Of
Lne Cdlup.
Practical cavalry and field artillery
instruction is given, besides the series
of informal talks, tactical walks and
war games, conducted by competent of
ficers, dealing with such subjects as
the theoretical principles of tactics, in
Guiding advance and rear guards, pa
trolls, outposts and combat.
Secretary of War Garrison, Genera
Wood and other army officers havt
R-orked hard to make the camps thi
Year success. Secretary Garrison il
q letter to college men recently de
clared that in case of war the arm,
would need from G,000 to 5000 youn;
men as officers of volunteers. The hes
classes to draw from, he holds, are tn,
educated young men from the college
and universities. All they lack, b
says, is the military instruction. Thi
is what the camps furnish.

war department in four student camps.
Representatives of about 200 colleges

Preparatory school students are also
enrolled in the camps, which are open

In carrying out this scheme the war

CALMETTE BUILT Up FIGARO.
''Temps" Correspondent Writes Ap-
probation of the Late Editor.

l., Georges Lambert, the New York
correspondent OF the Paris Temps, has
written for THE Sun the following appre-
citation OF NJ. Calmette:
Castor Calmette. the victim of Nine
CaillauX's vengeance. was chosen as di-
rector of the Figaro after the retirement.
OF Perivier, who had played "A prominent
part In the Dreyfus case At that period
he was assistant editor of the paper. n
position which he owed TO the protection
of the late director OF the Figaro, Francis
Maynard. one of the most celebrated
journalists of the nineteenth century
M Calmette when he took the man
agement was confronted with gigantic
financial difficulties. His predecessor. whp
had been a champion OF Dreyfus. in ad-
vocating the latter had antagonzed Il
great part of the readers of the paper
and NJ. Calmette deserved much credit for
bringing back to the Figaro all Of it's lost
prestige. Not only was he from pro-
fessional point of view "a remarkable
editor, but he was cmnently honorable.
I'm order 10 give the paper more ex.
pansion he had the courage to cut loose
from the old policy OF the paper and put
down It's selling price from 3 cents to :
cents. He was also the promoter of a new
departure. that of introducing In the paper
drawings by the best French cartoonists,
such as Forain, Abel Faivre and Alder.
Tho moral standing OF NJ Caimette
gave special importance to the campaign
against NJ CaillauN. now Minister Of
Finance. In articles OF the utmost vio-
lence he asserted that NJ. Ca,llaux had
used his influence as Minister or AS
Premier TO obtain for protcges of his the
settlement OF very tangled financial cases
tho solution of which depended from the
Government. lie also said that NJ Call
laux had favored for some obscur" rea-
sons the Introduction OF undesirable Sc
curities on the official stock exchange

NJ Clemenceau In 1906 and held the posi-
ton until 1909 In those years he pushed
his plan for an income tax, sought to cut
| the Government deficit by doubling the
stamp duty on Bourse operations. but that
plan did not prove successful. He refused
to permit the listing OF the United States
Steel Corporation common stock on the
Bourse In 1909. Shortly afterward the
Ministry was discredited.
Toward the end OF his administration
under NJ. Clemenceau he was slapped in
the face by NJ. Dos, an ex-Deputy, and on
July Q. 1909. the two fought a bloodless
duel
When in 1911 NJ. Mon!s succeeded
BRAND as Premier he asked NJ. Caillaux
to become Minister OF Finance II was In
1911 that his second wife divorced him
and obtained alimony OF $4,000 n year
His first wife also obtained a divorce from
him
The Premiership OF VI. Monis was brief
and at his downfall he suggested to Prtsl-
dent Fallieres to appoint VI. Caillaux to
that place. The suggestion was taken
and ". Caillaux remained In power until
January. 1912. The Moroccan crisis oc-
Cured and this really led TO the Premier's
downfall NJ. Caillaux was accused OF
having entered into secret negotiations
with Germany In regard to the Moroccan
affair He insisted, however. that the
negotiations had been carried on without
his authority. When he caused the down
fall OF the Premiership OF VI. Bathou he
was reappointed as Minister OF Finance

however. as Nine. Caillaux was taken
out "a back exit and through a shop into
an adjoining street. where she was placed
In a taxicab and driven to st Lazare
prison
Nine. Caillaux before leaving told the
commissary OF police that she did not
mean to kill NJ. Calmette but wanted to
give him lesson as a protest against the
publication OF more letters. She said she
was glad to hear that he was not dead.
NJ. Calmette was taken from the Office
OF the Figaro to private hospital at
Neuilly: the same one where William r.
McCombs was operated upon for appendi-
citis He died at midnight.
The commissary OF police gave NJ.
Calmettes wounds as two bullets in the
lungs. one in the breast and one In the
shoulder At the Figaro office It was said
that there was one bullet under the heart
which had been DETECTED by the ribs. one
lower down which is supposed to have
entered tine abdomen and one in the thigh.
Nine. Caillaux was born Henriette Re-
nouard. She was formerly the wife OF Leo
Clarete, who divorced her because of the
gossip connecting her name with that Of
". Caiilaux. The letter which was the
immediate cause OF the tragedy was ad-
dressed to her while she was still Nine.

told tho commissary OF police. A story

found out that she was the wife OF a

Mime. Caillaux said she bought the re-
volvcr in the afternoon and went to her
home. where she loaded IT, She arrived at
the office of the Figaro at 8 O'Clock. She
told an attendant to inform VI. Calmette
that n lady wished to see him, without
giving her name. She waited an hour and
then gave the attendant her card in a
scaled envelope. NJ. Calmette soon passed
through tho passage which separates the
waiting room from his private Office. He
was talking with Paul Bourget at the
time. He then received the envelope and
opened II.
M. Bourget suggested that perhaps II
would be better that NJ Calmette should
not see Mime. Caillaux. Mr.. Calmette de-
clared that II was impossible to refuse 20
see a lady and invited her into his private
office. Then. at 6 rs the shots were heard
and shortly afterward Nine. Caillaux was
arrested. NJ. Callaux arrived at the police
station shortly after his wife was taken
