later camp.
On arrival each man will be treated
with typhoid prophyiaxis incubation,
If ne wishes. This treatment is
strongly recommended, but is not obi
gatory. The land on which the camp
is situated is furnished by the city Of
Platts burg and was chosen because Of
its healthful situation and conditions
Electric lights in the camp are also
furnished by the city. The govern
ment provides tents and other camp
equipment, but the rockies must pay
for food and breakage. They deposit
$50 at the opening of camp and get
s. back at the close. unless there are
deductions for damage to government
property.
Plattsburg will also pay farmers In
the surrounding country for damages
to crops caused by the troops in
ykirmish man9uvres. The only expense
falling on the recruit in addition to
the $50 is for carfsre and camp wear
ing apparel, the total outlay called for
being s57.

WHITES FLOCK
READY FOR TRIAL
CO-WOrkers Outline Their
Defence Pleas at YeSter-
days Services.

Some idea Of the defence TO be pre-
scented by members of Bouck Whites
flock this morning when they are tried
for burning the American flag last
Thursday night filtered through their
meetings yesterday at 125 West
Twenty-frst Street. Ksrto Chetyanna,
who placed the Japanese flag in the pot
with the others, arose at the recess
during the long meeting yesterday
afternoon and said:
81 have two feelings as think of sp-
rearing tomorrow for trial. One is OF
regret and the other is of joy. ] re-
gret it because the public will not
understand the spirit in which we did
it, but am glad to suffer if ! have to
for the bigger thing, the international
flag"
Louis Cherkoff, a Russian, who has
been here nine years. spoke more at
length. Judging from his speech, his
defence will be that:
Calls Franklin Traitor.
America means unity-the unity OF
fCrty-eight flags into one. Our action
was that Of merging the national flags
into one of humanity, IN the same spirit
in which the United States is united.
When Benjam..- franklin received
present OF the flag one time he said
ha no
time represent one flag, that of the ma
tion. | hope that all flags will some
day be represented by one. If / am a
traitor, Benjamin Franklin is, too"
The afternoon session was held in
the same yard where the flag burning
occurred Thursday night. II was in
tcrrupted frequently by neighbors in
windows above who were displeased.
After a luncheon Of sandwiches and
cocoa, Eat proletariat prices" and an
hour of song and informal discussion,
the evening meeting was called TO or
der indoors.
J. 6. Ilff, instructor in Teacher, Col
lege, Columbia University, made the
principal address. He spoke mainly
of the difference between the Church of
Social Revolution and other religious
organizations, but alluded TO flags in
direct terms.
"The United States and China have
the same trouble. Both worship the
past. A great-great- great-great grand
father is super-sacred. George Wash
ington was little more than plain, sec
ond John d. Rockefeller when he died.
We have come TO a worship of the gov
eminent at Washington. 1t is neces-
sary that we hold that in high respect,
but there is a loyalty that is higher.
Places Red Flag on Top.
81 shall never put my flag above my
kind. care very little more for the
Stars and Stripes than for the stripes F,
of Germany. ! am not. therefore, a
German. | simply place the red flag II
suppose it is red of humanity above
the Stars and Stripes and pray for the /
day when every one shall do So"
Mr.. Iliff pointed out that the Church /
of Social Revolution was different from /
others in that it believed in the Sound 1
ness of the human heart and in some
ultimate hope for the head"
Service closed with q workers song
10 the tune of "In the Sweet Bye and /
Bye" Edward r. Ames led the after
noon session.

CREW MANAGER RESCUES
GIRL AND HER NEW HAT

Poughkeepsie, n. Y, June while
the members OF the crew were away
from Columbia quarters on their jsunt
over the hills, Manager W. F. Walker
effected a spectacular rescue of a
young girl visiting the bosthouse.
While her companion was talking
to Coach Rice the skiff in which they
had made the trip across the river
drifted away from the float, and in her
attempt to hold the craft fast the girl
leaned too far over the side and was
plunged into the water.
Although the surface of the stream
at this point did not rise above her
chin, Manager Walker had to exercise
great strategy and tact TO extract the
young woman from the Hudson, so
afraid was she that her new straw hat
which was unchanged by the water,
would be ruined.
Walker went in with all his clothes
on. while Coach Rice, standing on the
float, helped lift the unfortunate sight
seer back to dry land.

Though his wealth was estimated at
$500, 1000 and his business, the Hall

When he left home Thursday he
said he was going to New York, but
his friends began search for him
late that night when he failed to com
municate with his family. 1t was

just as he was about to use it on him
self.
His friends believe that he went TO
New York on Thursday with the firm
intent to- kill himself, transacted some
