SYSTEM OF CIVILIAN NAVAL
TRAINING DECIDED ON.

Washington. Feb, 19.-Secretary
Daniels and his advisers decided today
to inaugurate a system of civilian ma
val training, similar in general outline
to that on which military training
camps have been established at Platts-
burg and elsewhere. u - planned to
use six battieships to take those who
present themselves for training for a
months cruise, beginning about Aug.
10
The vessels to be utilized as training
ships will take on Jneir student per.
.sonnel along the Atlantic Coast, prob
ably at New York, Boston, Philadel,
phia, Norfolk, Portland and Charles
ton. 1t is estimated that the six bat
tleships will make possible the train
ing of $500 men A similar program,
it is explained, will be prepared for
next year for development of the plan
.Cn the Pacific Coast
The plan, which was drafted by As
sistant Secretary Roosevelt, proposes
that the cost to the men shall be suf-
fciently low to enable those in moder-
late circumstances to join.
The only compulsory requirement is
that each volunteer shall declare his
intention cf giving his services to the
navy in case of war 1t is not pro
posed to require an oath,
The object of the plan is to estab-
lish a naval reserve of civilians ex-
elusive of former enlisted men and
those of the professional seafaring
classes. Navy department officials
are confident sufficient number of
men will respond to make the under
taking a success. Each applicant first
will be examined by a regularly desig-
mated officer in his naval district, vino
will pass on his qualifications and rec
ommend his acceptance or rejection
to the department Some rudmentary
knowledge of seamanship, machinery,
radio, electricity or navigation will be
required. The expense per man is not
expected to exceed $50.

Not Sufficiently Rested.

Sleeping late on rainy mornings
shows that nature is not satisfied with
the amount of recovery from work of
the day before. This is the cause of

exactly the same reasons people in
mountainous countries sleep much
less on the average than those in the

This excellent, common-sense

Physicians the world over recommend
the inside bath, claiming this is of vast.
~ more Importance than outside cleanli,
ness, because the skin pores do not alb
sorb impurities into the blood, causing
i'll health, while the pores in the ten
yards of bowels do.
Men and women are urged to drink
each morning, before breakfast glass
of hot water, with teaspoonful of lime,
stone phosphate in it, as a harmless
means of helping to wash from the stom-
ach, liver, kidneys and bowels the pre-
vious days indigestible material, pois-
ons, sour bile and toxins; thus cleansing,
sweetening and purifying the entire ali
mentary canal before putting more food
into the stomach.
just as soap and hot water cleanse
and freshen the skin, so hot water and
limestone phosphate act on the elimina-
tive organs
Those who wake up with bad breath,
coated tongue, nasty taste or have a
dull, aching head, sallow complexion,
acid stomach; others who are subject to
bilious attacks or constipation. should OBJ
tain a quarter pound of limestone phos-
plate at the drug store. This will cost
very little but is sufficient to demon
strate the value Of inside bathing. Those
who continue it each morning are as.

RATE HEARINGS OVER.
Intermountain Case Now Before Com.
merce Commission for Decision.

Washington, d. G., April 2s.--The re
opened intermountain rate case now Is
before the interstate commerce commits
sion for decision, hearings having ended
with the testimony OF half dozen vol
unteer witnesses, who said they did not
want any change in rates, and brief ar
guments by counsel,
Counsel for petitioners contended in
their argument that they had shown the
non-existence of water competition with
the railroads in coast to coast traffic.
From this basis, they argued that there
was no longer justification for continu-
ing through railroad rates to favored
ports, granted there was competition.
H. w Prickett Of the traffic service bu-
reau of Utah declared that it was no
longer optional with the commission to
continue the rates, and that recent SUI
preme court rulings had made it manda-
tory on the commission to discontinue
the alleged discrimination.

New York, April 2s.--High explosives
brought into the court room yesterday
for purposes OF Identification gave every,
one thrill, and perhaps an uneasy feel
ing. too, at the trial of sLeutenant'
Robert Fay and his companions in an al
legged plot to blow up munitions ships
The case is on before Judge Howe and a
jury in the United States district court.
Seven sticks of dynamite, small
quantity of the powerful explosive called
trinitrotoluol, some fuses, three contain
ers of chlorate Of potash, some cartridges
and other ugly looking objects were pre-
sented as government exhibits and iden-
titled by Carl S. W'ittig the witness, as
having been in Fay's house in Union Hill,
N. J..
Judge Howe took a firm hand in the
proceedings when, after the dynamite
had been identified by the witness, they
were passed over to ex-Judge Henry ".
Unger, attorney for Fay, and one piece
Of dynamite was picked out of the box
by the alleged chief conspirator, Fay
himself.
Here, we can't have that handled by
everyone" interposed Judge Howe quick
ly.
Thereupon Fay put the explosive back
in the box and the incidents was closed.
The seven deadly sticks presumably
enough to wreck the federal building,
were wrapped in paper and contained in
a cigar box bound with rubber band.
Assistant United States District At |
torney Knox, producing the harmless
looking cigar box. startled the court |
room by asking Wettig, the witness;
"Did you see in room in Fay's house |
what purported to be 40 per cent dyna-
mite?"
q did, replied Wettig. And then Mr..
Knox, always handling the cigar box
with great respect, unrolled one Of the
seven sticks from its paper wrapper.
while Wettig got down off the witness
stand to look at the thing closely. Once
the Identification was over and the stuff
properly marked, Mr.. Knox addressed the
court:
"Sinee this box is more or less danger
Gus, | think it would be wise measure
of safety to have it removed from the
court room. If the jury wishes to ex

The jury didn't show any anxiety to
