u. RECRUITING
STATION DOING
GOOD BUSINESS

Corporal Arnold and Private Burke
of the United States recruiting Office,
who have been in this city for the past
six weeks, report that they are having
very good success in getting men for
the army. They say that the Number
of applications is very large but that
the rigid examination that each man
has to undergo has done much to cut
down the number accepted. In the time
that the men have been here over so
have presented themselves for enlist
ment but only 10 had been accepted
up to Monday night. During the day
Monday three young fellows present
ed themselves for enlistment who
were nearly perfect specimens # phys
ical manhood but not one Of the three
could read or write and so all had to
be turned down. The average which
is being maintained here Is very good
in the number accepted to the number
Of applications.

The system of ringing has not been
worked out as yet and it will probably
be some time before that will be

ply detail and will be taken care
CT by the marshal without in any way
interfering with the work Of the men.
The boxes are located three at the
north end of the city, six through the
business section and three at the south
end, giving each officer three to ring.
The idea is to have them all rung in
every hour. making tie rings como just
five minutes apart. TO do this without
confusion will require considerable
work on tie part of the men as it will
not be possible to ring two at the
So me time A test of the system Tues
day morning showed that an officer
could hear the bell at a considerable
distance from the box and that even
if it is not the time for a man to rirs
up it will frequently be possible for
them to be called flCm headquarters.
The police have been waiting a long
time for the new system and are well
pleased that it is a. last in operation,
as it will enable them to give an ac-
count OF their time all during the night
and will do away with the statement
which is sometimes rade that an Off
