ton between the executive and legis-
lative branches of the government in

fence is one Of the objects OF the

that an effort will be made 10
balance the various appropriations in
conformity with general policy for
the promotion OF the national defence,
plans for which probably will be sub
mitted to President Wilson for hnal
approval.
Il is Secretary Garrison's eXpecta-
ton that all legislation having to DO

the United States now pending before
Congress will he discussed For his
own department; viii bring to the
attention Of O., Cup the following
measures now before Congress:
I The bill to increase the personnel
of the coast artillery corps WHEREBY
the permanent strength of that organl,,
zation will be raised 70 meet the legal
reouirement of one-half the war time
strength. The organized militia IS eX-
pected in war time TO provide 90 per
cent OF the men necessary Tor garrison
duty in the coast defences.
>. The bill providing for the per
manent maintenance of the mobile
srmv Of the United States at its legal
strength. This hill would necessltate
the addition of about 900 officers ana
from 10000 20 10000 men to the pres
ent army.

for an enlistment system for the army

crease of the signal corps.
Secretary Daniels was uncertain JUST
which of the bills in which the navy rs

among them being the bill to create {.

who rioted in trout Of the Governors
mansion until he had 10 call out the
militia for protection. Even threats
had been made against his life. These
occurrences are Of general interest,
but, returning to the Prohibition phase
incidental to the story, the following
Associated Press dispatch from At
lanta is of peculiar interest:
Frank was delivered at the state
prison at 4:30 o'clock this morning.
When it became known in Atlanta
that the sentence had been committed
crowds began to gather on downtown
street corners. Within three hours
their demonstrations had resulted in
calling out two-thirds OF the police
force and an order JoliOWed closing
all Near Beer Saloons and Clubs
Where liquor could be obtained.
So it seems Prohibition in Atlanta
does not prohibit, except on extreme
occasion and then only temporarily.

looking youth appeared on the scene
and opined that he could point out a
road that would make crossing the
stream a thing not to be thought Of
for a minute.
"Boy, heaven must have sent you,"
chirped White, who by this time,
thought the luck had changed. "Lead

quarter"
The boy led and around the bend
pointed out the incest looking road

Schmidt sent the car ahead in a BUSH
ness-like way, just fast enough to get
far enough and deep enough into the
muddiest mud so that there wasn't a
chance to back out. This time it was
q real stick in the mud.
A niger farmer now appears on the
scene from somewhere. He is a
pleasant fellow with an all compre-
hensive grin. He volunteered this in
formation: "Gemmen, you all picked
out a mighty bad road"
The mention of road made White
look for the boy. He wanted to give
him no quarter. Boy gone without

Feeling that the tourists were too
proud to fight with the mud any longer
the N. F. asked: "Boss, amt you
bout ready for that team now?" How
that niger knew they were ready is
a mystery to the tourists, but ready
they were. With the help of the mules
the car was rescued and, the road
ahead being good all the way, five
men let go some genuine signs of re-
lief. Some one looked at his watch
and discovered they had not been
delayed more than four hours, which,
after all, was not so bad.
