the bugle calls him from sleep. From
that moment until retreat sounds at
sunset the day is one Of strict routine

A rough outline of routine day at
Fort Myer is: Rise, roll call, break.

which lasts several hours or until time
for the MONDAY dinner. For the after
noon there are various designated du.

include attendance at lectures, or dem

martial, training for extra drills, at

other services, either obligatory or vol.

pressive ceremonies of the day.

WEDN SDAY.

The Germans, heavily reinforced,
delivered strong attacks against the
British on the Somme front in north
ern France. They gained ground in
Mametz wood and Trones wood in the
vicinity of Contalmason, which town
was taken by the British. The latter
are reported, however, to be slowly
pressing back the point of the German
salient In that region.
The crown princes army made Wig
lent attacks at Dead Mans Hill, west
of the Meuse, last night, but the off,
cial statement of the French war office

pulsed. East Of the Mense, a counter
attack by the French resulted in the
recapture of part Of the Fumia wood
from the Germans.

Who Was "Nasboro,"
Man of Mystery.


Richmond, Va July 10, 1916
Especially Who was born at Vinton
Virginia, Nov. 9. 1S4S? A woman
in Ohio wishes to know, not to
satisfy curiosity or to write history,
but TO solve what officers of the
State Board of Health describe as
the most unusual mystery yet
brought before the bureau of vital
statistics.
Some time ago, a prosperous
physician of Ohio, Nasboro by
name, felt his death approaching,
and conided to his dumbfounded
children that the name with which
they had been christened, baptized
and reared was not their correct
name. They were his children but
he was not Nasboro. Years be-
fore, he told them, he had run
away from home, had gone to
England, had studied medicine
there, had returned to America
and, refusing to answer advertise
ments from his anxious parents,
had built up his practice in Ohio.
His mother, he said, had been a
Miss Percy, and her children were
named Thomas, John and Annie
He had an uncle who was a sea-
faring man, Familiarity known as
"Black Jack" His real name, he
said, was not unlike that by which
he was known Nasboro or Mas
borough.
He promised to tell the whole
story and to explain the reasons
L for his change of name, but before
he could do so, death put an end
! to his confession, and he died as he
had lived, a man of mystery and
unknown name. Among his papers
his heirs found a memorandum
stating that he had been born at
Vinton, Virginia, November O.,
lS4S; beyond this he left not a
scrap to establish his identify.
His family has now written the
State Bureau of Vital Statistics to
inquire for a list of those born at
Einton at the time indicated. Had
the request been for list of those
born since June 1912, when the
new registration law went into
effect, the bureau would have been
able to supply the precise details.
with the names of the children,
their parentage, race, etc. But as
no vital statistics were registered
in Virginia in 1913, the bureau can
flu nish no information.
! In the hope, however, that some
of the older residents of Vinton
may recall the disappearance of a
young man about the time of the
war between the States, the State
Board of Health has authorized the
publication of the facts. These
clues, it is believed, will be suffici-
ent to identify the man of mystery.
His mothers family name was
Percy, his brothers (or perhaps
himself) Thomas or John, his sister
! Annie, his uncle a sailor and his
real name not unlike Nasboro.
The State Board of Health will
be glad to receive information from
those who may remember the man.

What Is Uric Acid ?
THE CAUSE OF BACKACHE,
RHEUMATISM, GRAVEL
AND SUDDEN DEATH.

Ever since the discovery of uric acid
in the blood by Scheele, in 1775, and
the bad effect it had upon the body,
scientists and physicians have striven
to rid thee tissues and the blood OF
this poisC4. Because of its over
abundance in the system it causes
backache, pains here and there, rheu-
matism, govt, gravel, neuralgia and
sciatica. 1t was DR.. Pierce who dis
covered a new agent, called "Anuric,"
which will throw out and completely
eradicate this uric acid from the sys-
tenn. vAnuric" has proved to be 81
times more potent than tthia, and
consequently you need no longer fear
muscular or articular rheumatism or
govt, or many other diseases which are
dependent on an accumulation of uric
acid within the body. Send to DIR.

gical Institute, Buffalo, N. Y, for .

Ii you feel that tired, worn e out
feeling, backache, neuralgia, or if your
sleep is disturbed by too frequent
urination, go to your best drug store
and ask for Doctor Pierce's Anuric
Tablets.

HUSBANDS BLUFF
Pretty 1S.Year.O Ada Cantu Defies
Helpmeet When He Threatens to
Kill Her With Knife.

Pretty 1S-year-old Ada Cantu last
night on the Twenty-fourth street via
duct approach defied her husband to
kill her. Peter Cantu stood in the
street with a knife in his hand and
hesitated. He had just threatened to
take her life. 1t was a bluff, but she
called it. He put the knife away.
The girl wife appealed to the Rock
Island police after she had dramatic
ally challenged him to execute the
threat. Patrolman Kell arrested Can
tn and also placed in custody Mrs.
Cantu and her sister, Grace Chilcote,
who was with her at the time.
Back of the incident last night is a
long story of domestic troubles.
"a girl is fool to get married so
young" Mrs. Cantu said. I'm dis
gusted I'm sorry that | did. | have
been married two years, but l didn't
live with my husband long. We had
baby, but he killed it. He pushed me
over on my baby one night when we
had some trouble.
II left him and he went to Chicago.
He stayed there for while, but came
back. | haven't got enough money to
get a divorce, SO l couldn't get rid Of
him. He bothered the life out of me.
He logged me everywhere l went.
81 am living with my mother in Dav-
export. l go to dances once in while
and meet fellows. Last night my Sis
ter and l were together. We were
with two fellows. We were walking
on Third avenue towards the govern
ment bridge My husband followed
US. He said something and the fellows
ran. They were towards and afraid.
One of them had a gun, but that didn't
make him any Drawer.
MY husband approached me and
threatened to kill me- He flashed a
knife. l dared him to lay hand on
me, and he quit. Then | got police
man and he took us all down to the
station. | have never been in any
trouble like this before"
Cantu was sentenced to the county
Jail for 80 days on charge of dis
orderly conduct. Mrs. Cantu and her
sister each paid 81 and costs.
