lief that Troops Will Move Fol
lowing Strike Settlement.

partment that the troops will move as
soon as the strike trouble is over

the Third Infantry for the past few days
and only one of two men have joined
the First Separate Battalion.

plan DEFENSE HIGHWAY
FOR OLD STAGE route
Maryland Commissioners Said to
Favor Building of Road Through
Prince George County.

That the proposed National Defense
Highway between Annapolis and Wash
ington will be constructed over the old
stage route was the opinion of Washing
tonians and residents of Prince George
county who attended hearings in Balti-
more at which the subject was discussed.
Oliver Metzerott, of this city, made an
impressive address, which is said to have
won favor with the Maryland commits
sioner of highways. He urged the build
ing of the highway over the old stage
route Instead of the Sheriff road route.
Joseph Addison, an attorney of Prince
George county. said yesterday that the
State could save thousands of dollars in
the construction of the roadway through
the offer of Rev. Father Hogan. pastor Of
the Church of the Sacred Heart at Bowie
Nd, and Vincent Cross. a farmer to give
sufficient gravel to build fifteen miles OF
the highway.

CAMP GOOD Will
ENDS TOMORROW
Nearly 800 Children and
Mothers Have Been
Given Outings.

Play days at Camp Good Will soon will
be over.
Tomorrow the $50 children and their
mothers will return to the city after two
weeks in the open-air camp of Rock
Creek Park. Only the hospital baby
camp, just over the hill from Camp Good
VIM, will be left. with its ten sick ba-
bies in charge OF Miss Elabelle Strong,
formerly superintendent Of the Instruc-
tive Visiting Nurses Society. This camp
will be open for several weeks longer
The "kiddies" are living their last days
at the camp just as they have spent the
ordinary days OF the past two weeks
Only they are vaguely conscious that
they must soon leave. and seem to be
making the best of the play time while
it lasts.
tomorrow they will be sent back to the
city. Then the tents that have housed
happy children and mothers for eight
weeks will be struck, and the site will be
deserted until next summer.
Four parties of children and moth
ers. totaling nearly 500, have stayed
at Camp Good Will for two weeks
each during the summer. The last
party, which returns tomorrow, has
been treated best by the weather man
says Miss Margaret Simpson, superin-
tendent. It has not had rain or wind.
storms. although several nights were
so cold that every blanket in the
camp was used.
Camp Good VIII started in a small
way in May. 1894. and each year since
then there have been children and
mothers at Washington's charity
fresh air camp. This is the usual
time for the camp to close. as the
nights in the latter party of August
sometimes are unpleasantly cold for
outdoor sleeping.
