 The men who arrived today will go to
 work at once making the preliminary preparations for the other soldiers who

 will be followed by the regular artillery troops located at Brownsville. Tex. Hundreds of acres of land north of An niston have been leased for several months for use by the government, and residence has been leased within the past few days to be used as hospital.

or her life was spent with men in charge of the affairs of this country She was later married to Judge David Clopton, distinguished Alabamian, and has since that time enjoyed life at Wildwood" her country home near GurleY. However, Mrs Clopton has travelled much since taking up her home for the second time in Huntsville and she has been the inspira- tion at many state functions during that time her ready wit and perfect command of the English language making her at all times fluent speaker and charming entertainer.
 Perhaps not woman in the entire south was better versed in the rulings and un- dertallings of the country, for Mrs. Clop- ton was born into a family of patriotic people, and Her life has been lived through an atmosphere that has made her student of national affairs. Friend of Jefferson Davis
 She was present at the monthly meet ing of Virginia Clay-Clopton United Daughters of the Confederacy in this city on June g. and at that time gave a brilliant account of the life and im-
 prisonment of Jefferson Davis, who was a warm friend of her and Senator Clay during the sixties.
 Mrs. Clopton's last appearance in the social life of Huntsville was on June g. l at Piedmont" the handsome suburban l home Of Mir. and Mrs. Winston Fearn | Garth. who entertained in honor of the
 members of Twickenham Town chapter | Daughters of the American Revolution One of the loveliest features of the pro- | gIamme was two rectations rendered by | Mrs. Clopton, who chose for one sub 1 ject, "Ole Miss one of Howard Weeden'

 Perhaps 25 years ago Mrs. Clopton and
 Mrs. Milton Humes of this city became warm friends, and never has the latter
 missed an opportunity of bestowing the
 most loving and tenderest care upon this | beloved and brilliant woman. The devc- | tion between these two Alabama women 1 has been a sweet inspiration to every one | and now that after a long and useful If, to her country. and the time has come when the Master summons one of the 1 most noble women to the beyond. it Is but | fitting that she should have passed hel i last days on earth in the home of Mrs l Humes, where everything that human 1 hands could do for her was done. Mrs. Humes gave up all other work and
 affairs, when Mrs. Clopton was first taker l ill and she has been by her bedside con stantly since.

UNTERMYER AND
 NNLbURN CLASH
Heated Debate on Stock Exchange Regulation in
 New York

Albany, N. Y, June S.-A plea by Samuel Untermyer to a constitutional convention committee for strict govern exchange today developed heated discus sion between him and John C. Milburn, counsel for the exchange.
 Jntermyer insisted that the exchange. through lack of governmental supervision, had become law unto itself and held it. self above the law. Milburn denied this vehemently and charged Untermyer with fathering all the movements looking to stock exchange regulation
 The men were speaking directly to a proposal which would cause all stock ex- changes to be Incorporated within New York state and impose other restrictions on them.
 ''To incorporate the exchange would be 10 throw if into politics and wipe out it's very foundation" Milburn declared
 Tntermyer cited an alleged Rock Island railroad deal. He said:
 Last April it was decided to ask for a The papers were drawn up when the stock sold for SIS share The plan was kept secret and the stock run up to $39 a share. Two hours after the papers ap- plying for receivership had been filed the stock had declined to S20'' Milburn said he never had heard of | the deal but asserted that the district attorney had ample powers to investigate the transaction. because if true, there had | been Il conspiracy.
 Miiburn denied Cntermyer's charge that the stock exchange at the beginning ! Of the European war had remained open two days too long and that if 1t had re- ] mained open two days longer all of the banks dealing in securities would have | been forced to close. He said the ex-
 change was closed when it was found that all orders were orders to sell stocks

CAPT. REHM ASKS JUST WHERE
HEALEY HIMSELF STANDS
Is it the physical or mental ability
of. an officer of the police department
which makes him valuable to the de-
paTtment?
Is it the ability to walk streets or
to boss men with the wisdom acQuir-
ed through years of experience
which makes him valuable asset to
the community?
Chief Healey yesterday refused to
take the test which he prescribed for
certain of his officers.

my own fitness"
Yesterday a Day Book reporter at
tempted to find out Healey's age.
The chief was in a conference. Not
one of the men working in his Office
knew how old he was. Captain Rehm
said that he thought Healey was
over so.
A few days ago Healey forcibly re-
tired two aged captains from the
force. Both wide awake mentally
and claiming to be in better physical
condition than Healey himself, they
had the choice of working under an
enemy and facing charges before the
civil service commission or retiring
on a pension. They chose the later.
Each day situations arose where
these men proved themselves capable
leaders. Rehm had been on the force
Al years. His advice was always
sought and respected at the captains
council, which meets monthly in the
chiefs Office. His years of expert
ence assisted him in solving many
puzzling situations and intricate
crimes.
It was the same with Gibbons.

Why the Navy Should Sing

If the Sun cannot answer with ac-
curacy what it calls The Worlds
"satirical and ungenerous question"
about Josephus Daniels, it should
leave the answer to those who can
make it. The question was:
why should navy that has Jose
phus Daniels for a Secretary want to
simg?"
The answer to this question is so
obvious that the wayfaring man could
not err in pouncing upon it, and The
Suns inadequate and cropping at
tenpts to find the answer almost sug-
gests that it is Intentionally playing
into The Worlds hands. 1t advances
every reason but the right one. Its
chief argument is that Mr.. Daniels
lis himself one grand, sweet song,
and inevitably rouse echoes in the ser
vice" We are surprised to see a
newspaper of The Suns intelligence
wandering all around Robin Hoods
barn when the reason why the navy
should sing, sing tremendously, sing
as it never sang in all its history,
stands right before its eyes.
One outlet for the navy's emotions
is barred to it by famous order of
the Secretary. The only other one
sanctioned by tradition and experience
remains to it-mOdified, 1t is true, by
another order Of the Secretary's, but
still existing in q fragmentary condi-
tion. The answer to The Worlds
question is that navy that has Jose
phus Daniels for a Secretary must
sing to keep its mind off its troubles,
and it should begin singing right
away, before he issues an order abol-
ishing music. Sing it must and shall,
though the notes waver and voices
break. There it stands and sings; God
help it, it can do no otherwise.-New
York Times.

The course of the wheat market just
now ought to be a pretty good dem
onstration to the American farmer
of the value of the grain exchange.
Every dealer in futures is or should be
student of conditions. He is not
betting on chance; he is buying or
selling, according as he thinks the
market is going up or down. In de-
termining his course of action, he
considers the likelihood Of the con-
tinuance of the great war, Of its re-
duction Of the European crop output,
and of the coming European demand.
As an expert, it is also his business to
find out as early as possible the prob
able yield of our own country, and of
competing countries for the next crop
year. The result of his judgment is
the price he will pay. The average
net judgment of all, it will be found,
will follow pretty closely the actual
price in the future.
Does the American farmer really
want to put an end to this expert
study of the market by the net result
which he can safely determine to wipe
out daily market, and take his
chances of selling from day to day for
actual needs? viii he not conclude
that to abolish the grain exchange will
put him at the mercy of the big buy
er. who can then dominate the mar
ket? The farmer knows now what
wheat will be worth next May. By
planting time he can know the price
he can get at harvest time-an inval-
liable device for his own insurance and
protection By the study of the mar
ket, he can follow the lines of the big
gest profit Once more we would
caution the farmers of this state not
to demand too quickly the abolition
of the grain exchange. Let him first
be quite sure that the grain exchange
is not a mighty good thing for him.
