CONCERNING THE WORD NONE.

If the metropolitan newspapers which insist their
writer's always using none" with a singular verb knew
little about the English language they'd get hep
to the TACT that the word none" is both singular and
plural None" good English long before the
scholarly editors Of the King James translation of the
Bible Of these things and has
good English ever since. The trouble is that many
metropolitan editors, ignorant the history of the
language and the older literature humby accept law
the views of prm pursts who to iron all the life
out Of language and substitute starched rules of
grammatical regularity for the good old idloms.
To say that none of the victims killed, most
big papers scrupulousy insist doing only flies
the the natural coIoqual Of the present
day, but isn't good English judged by literary
standards Shakespeare would never have said it,
None" is simply old Ango-saxon word written

both singular and plural in the way none"-and

The word any, which many newspapers insist on

SOLDIER MAKING is
PROGRESSING fine
IN GARDEN CANYON
Arizona MiIitiamen Are 0bserv-
ing All Kinds Of War Training
at the Scene Of Annual En-
Campment.

GARDEN CANYON, Aug. 17.--Six
hundred men encamped in Garden
Canyon. and observing all the details
of military life are rapidly rounding
into the real thing in the soldier line.
Work so far has been exceedingly
hard. No let up in the daily toll of
marching, digging trenches, policing
camp and drilling seems imminent.
Both officers and men are in the best
Of condition, and if the appettes all
are enjoying is a criterion of happi-
ness, all are having a good time
The camp this year is in one of the
most beautiful spots in Arizona. The
tents are pitched in a spot almost en-
tirely surrounded by mountains, the
floor being a green lawn slipping grad
ually from east to west, thickly dot
ted by live oak.
Inclusive of the parade grounds,
the camp occupies one-half square
mile. Water is brought in by pipe
line from excellent springs about four
miles away. There is a hydrant at
the head of each company street.
The first day out from Phoenix was
the most strenuous yet enjoyed. Upon
detraining at Fit Huachuca, baggage
was loaded upon wagons and the hike
started to the camping grounds.
1t was authoratatively announced
at the start Of the march that it was
only four miles The four miles were
made in good time, but still no camp
ing grounds in sight Many weary
miles more were made before the
destination was at last reached. Up
on careful inquiry by some Of the
men, it was learned that the distance
was twelve miles.
The hike was made in the dark and
the road was unfamiliar to all but
the trip was just a taste of what viii
come i'm real warfare, and as far as
the experience goes, was enjoyed by
everyone. Camp was made at about
midnight
Everything that can make the sol
diers comfortable is done. A shower
bath has been installed at the head
.of each company street. These baths
are surely enjoyed each night. when
camp is reached after a hard day.
