ARMY AND NAVY NOTES

"Desertions in the navy are de-
creasing wonderfully. Re-enlistments
and / think that is a point of spe-
cial importance-are increasing. New
recruits are being attracted to the
service" declares Secretary Of the
Navy Daniels.
TO what do | attribute this i'm
proved condition of things? | attrib-
ute it largely to the new educational
and promotion policy. We have made
it easy for the enlisted men Of the
navy to secure promotions. Thirteen
have been promoted to the pay corps.
Twelve have been made ensigns. Fiji
teen have been sent to Annapolis.
Moreover, the men of the navy are
now offered excellent educational adj
vantages. BY education l do not SIM
ply mean reading. writing. arithmetic,
and geography, but more than this
an all-around training. Under the
present arrangement men are kept
at the training stations for six
months. The fathers and mothers OF
boys, when it comes to conserving to
their enlistment, are influenced by
the thought that these boys will 60
to school, The fact that an enlisted
man knows there is opportunity for
him to rise to a commission improves
the spirit of the enlisted personnel
greatly"
Secretary Daniels believes a great
improvement has been wrought by
the change in the method of punish
ment for desertion.
"A large percentage Of those men
who leave the service without per-
mission and subsequently surrender
to naval authority" said the secre'
tary, ARE either placed on probation,
where they may earn an honorable
discharge by good conduct, or sum-
marily discharged, instead Of being
imprisoned"
Naval prisons at Puget sound and
at Boston have been abolished, and
the disciplinary barracks at Port Roy
al will be abolished as soon as those
imprisoned complete their service. In
all three fleets, Atlantic, Pacific and
Asiatic, in a period of one month,
only 80 assertions occurred.
- -
Desertion from the three battleship
fleets of the American navy during a
period of one month totaled but 80,
according to an announcement by the
navy department.
In December, 1914, there were only
IA assertions from the Atlantic feet
and three from the Asiatic feet, two

judicial district The state has there
by been relieved from the disgrace of
sharing in the proceeds of prostitution
through the ancient system of petty
fines common under the criminal laws,
which only stimulated renewed activ-
ity on the part of the prostitute to pay
them.
c. Property Owners Now Help Rath.
er than Hinder the Elimination of
Prostitution.
The injunction law by it's public dec
laratiOn of the responsibility of prop
erty owners for prostitution on their
premises and it's provision for their Sc
we're punishment for failure to accept
that responsibility has created a new
conscience in this class of citizens
and has changed a large number of
them from obstructionists of law en-
forcement into active allies for the
law-enforcing officials. Judges, coun-
ty attorneys and police commissioners
testified that property owners are TAX
ing a new and lively interest in the
characters of their tenants. Our wo-
man field investigator was unable to
ing to rent to her for the avowed pur-
pose of conducting ,high-class house
of prostitution. In many. cases, she
was referred to the owner with the
explanation that owners were now in
terviewing prospective tenants and
the complaint that this practise had
cut the agents commissions in half.
D. An Effective Weapon Against
Scatteration.
The injunction law has severely
checked and discouraged scattera-
ton, more through it's potential than
actual use. Now that prostitutes can,
be turned out on three days notice,
and owners of property be subjected
to disgrace and serious financial loss
by the operation of this law in Iowa
and Nebraska, prostitution as a bust
ness involving fixed abodes, costly
equipment and a substantial income,
has been practically killed, according
to the almost unanimous testimony of
officials, qualified citizens and deni-
Gems of the underworld. This state
ment especially applies to the better
class Of residence neighborhoods,
where owners are more particular be-
cause they have more to lose in mon
ey and reputation, and where rents
are more expensive and the necessary
furnishings more costly. Far from
driving prostitutes into the better
class of residence neighborhoods, this
law has operated to confine most of
those prostitutes who remained in the
cities after the closing of segregated
districts to the cheaper transient no
tells and apartments in the business
sections.

Peace in Vermont,

III people only stop to think about il
they will realize that Vermont is enjoy
| ing one of the most peaceful periods OF
| its history. In Massachusetts they held
political pow-wow on one of the hot
nights OF last week in an attempt to
set governor and lieutenant governor
booms to sprouting. In New Hampshire
Hi Noone' has announced his candidacy
for the governorship and Others are wait
ing for a psychological moment to pub
licly announce their ambition. One can
not help recalling conditions year ago
in this state when no one was safe from
charges of conspiracy and CO. upton and
the waters of stateeraft were so dis.
turbed that they were Stunned and
everyone suspected everyone else.
To-day il is entirely different. We
have not heard single charge of dis
honesty among state officials and no one
is suspected OF such criminality. We
have not heard that a single corpora
ton is lodging its taxes and no one is
posing as sacrifice of their machina-
tons. The new workmen's compensa-
tion act is being put into effect without
friction and labor is peaceably following
its different vocations. There is some
criticism on the part of certain educa-
tional aspirants because they cannot run
the affairs of the state commissioner OF
education and the state board of eduea
tion, but they have failed to arouse any
public interest in their soreness and the
great work of recognizing the eduea-
tional work OF Vermont under the new
law is making satisfactory progress.
Our governor Is not announcing sights
by state organizations but is busy fill
ing all the engagements he can and he
Is telling OF the strength and honesty

INMATE DISAPPEARED.
Was Soon Located in SALISBURY, Many
Miles from Retreat.

Bennington, Aug. 7.-Superintendent
Il, s. Iawton of the Brattleboro re-
treat early yesterday telephoned to this
village in an effort TO locate William
Ii. Harrington of North Bennington who
had been a paid patient at the institu'
ton and who disappeared some time
Thursday afternoon. According to the
superintendent, Mr.. Harrington went out
for walk early in the afternoon and
the authorities had since lost all trace
of the patient.
Inquiry by telephone developed the
fact that Mr.. Harrington was in Shafts
bury, having been brought by automo-
bile from Brattleboro to the home Of
John G. Stevens of that town.
Early in the week Mr.. Stevens made
arrangements with the Bennington gar
age to send an automobile to Brattle-
boro for Mr.. Harrington and the car
was taken over the mountain by Mr..
Williams, the proprietor of the garage,
and Ralph Wade, chauffeur. Mr.. Will
liams remained at Brattleboro while Mr..
Wade called at boarding house for
his passenger whom he says that he de-
liyered at the home of Mr.. Stevens in
SALISBURY.
DR.. Lawton said yesterday that Mr..
Harrington was afflicted with paranoia
and that while at the retreat the patient
had made considerable recovery.
The purpose of taking MIR. Harrington
from Brattleboro without the knowl-
edge of the authorities at the retreat
is unknown. He owns some property
at North Bennington and recently some
for its sale have been in
There is pending in the Ben
nington probate court an application for
the appointment Of guardian and it is
probable that until after the hearing,
which is set for August 10, Mr.. Harring-
on would be unable legally to dispose
# his property.

GOOD CHANCE FOR RECOVERY
Although G. Henry Baker Shot Himself
in Right Temple.

Bennington, Aug. 7.-G. Henry Baker
who has been employed as farmer a.
"The Orchards" the summer place o.
Edward III. Everett at Old Bennington
during the past four years, attempted tc
commit suicide by shooting at his home
on Putnam street shortly before O'Clock
Thursday evening. Although dangerous
ly wounded by revolver bullet which
penetrated the right temple, he may re-
cover.
For some months the unfortunate man
has been respondent because of an in
iured leg which has not only interfered
with his ability to travel, but from
which he has suffered intense pain. The
injury was sustained some years ago
and was of such a nature that the leg
would fail when he was travelling over
rough ground and give the man severe
falls. He would then be in intense pain
for days and the leg would be almost
useless.
Last Saturday he was thrown, the leg
was given severe wrench and he had
been more than usually Respondent. The
day previous some member OF the fam
lily noticed that large revolver belong
ing to Mr.. Bakers son, who is employed
at the gas plant of the Twin State Gas
& Electric Co., was missing. The father
was questioned about the disappearance
of the weapon, but denied all knowledge
of its whereabouts. The son was sum
moned from his work by telephone and
a search revealed the revolver loaded and
hidden between the mattresses of bed.
Early Thursday afternoon Mr.. Baker
called at the Griswold store and pur-
chased a 32-calibre, double action re-
volver made by the Iver johnson Co.
He produced a $40 bill to pay for the
weapon, the price of which was $3.50,
and dozen cartridges.
A few minutes before 8 O'Clock the re.
port of the pistol was heard by some of
the younger children, who ran into the |
yard in the rear of the house and found |
their father lying II on his back across
wash bench. Blood was flowing from
the wound in the right side of the head |
Ind the man was unconscious.
DR.. ID. Y. O'Donnell was summoned |
oy telephone and arrived at the house
n few minutes. News of the shooting
was also transmitted by telephone TO
george W. Williams, by whom one of
'Ir. Bakers daughters is employed as
and Mr.. Williams clerk,
George j. Deslaurier, quickly hurried TO
he house by automobile. The physician
nd Mr.. Deslaurier did all that was pos.
IDLE for the wounded man, who was TAX

DIR. O'Donnell returned from Troy FRI
ay morning and stated that during the
quincy to the city Mr.. Baker recovered
and that he was in good

AN ODD DAMAGE SUIT.
Sues Central Vermont for Being Shot by
Railroad Employe.

Brattleboro, Aug. THE failure OF
long conducted negotiations for a settle
ment has resulted in the bringing of a

such corporation shall be fined not more
than 5000 nor less than $500, and shall
