Badgers Surprise Army Men.

Army officers here were surprised
when they learned that Wisconsin re-
cruits had all received some instruc-
ton in target practice before leaving
Camp Douglas. Practically no other
state soldiers had such training before
being sent to Texas.
Credit is given Gen. Orlando Hol-
way and Maj. Robert B. Mccoy, chief
instructor of rifle practice, for their
efforts to give the recruits all the train
ing possible in the short time they HAD
to make them better soldiers. Every
recruit had some practice on the range.
This was not given with the view Of
making them marksmen as the time
was too short, but to familiarize them
with the rifle as many of then had
never had an army rifle or any other
kind of rifle in their hands before en-

Simplicity.

Mrs. Everett M. Raynor Of New
York, who has been elected president
general of the Daughters of the Amer
lean Revolution, said at luncheon:
"There are many anecdotes in illus
tration of the simple living Of the
fathers.
zone Of our country's pre-revolu-
tionary fathers had occasion to call
on the governor of his province, and
was invited to stay to luncheon.
Luncheon began, and a liveried
servant moved busily about, serving
the wine, carving the fowl and so
forth.
''The guest watched the servant for
some minutes, and then said to him
irritably:

Minneapolis, Aug. 8.-The longest
automobile parade ever seen in Min.
neapolis is what those in charge of
the arrangements for the visit OF
Charles e. Hughes to this city tomor-
row are hoping and planning for, as a
part of Minneapolis greeting to the

Troops Have Good Record.

The conduct of the Wisconsin sol
diers who are encamped at Camp Will
son here has attracted the attention OF
regular army officers. The Badger
troops have made almost a perfect
record since they have been in camp
and the officers of the brigade are
more than pleased with the showing
that has been made
The summary court which tries sol
diers and noncOmmissiOned officers
charged with minor Offenses, has prac'
tically been idle. 1t is safe to est1'
mate that no more than ten soldiers
have been hailed into the court before
Lieut.. Col. Peter F. Piasecki. The of
Tense of which most of the men have
so far been guilty is getting in afte1
taps. For this infractiOn of army
rules the men are usually disciplined
by the company commander with five
days in the company street at hard
labor or small fine is inflicted.
In Battery A Capt. Phillip Westphal
appoints one of his lieutenants to sit
in the summary court as does Capt.
Carl Penner of the troop.

TWO SUBMARINES BELIEVED TO
BE GERMAN MERCHANTMAN
ONSORT-EVERY POINT
WATCHES SHARPLY.
DODGlNG ABOUT CLOSE
TO THREE-MILE LIMIT
Jndersea Liner May Be Preparing to
Make Dash Into Boston-Navy De-
partment Announces That No
American Submarines Are
in This Locality.

Portland, Me-, Aug. 8.-EVery point
along the Maine coast is watching
sharply for two submarines, believed
to be foreign vessels and possibly the
long expected German merchantmen
Bremen and a consort.
The strange vessels were reported
four miles off Cross island, near Ma
chias, and close to Canadian waters
by a coast guard lookout, who said
they were proceeding at top speed
toward the west
Later thick fog made observation
impossible
The lookout, Lowell w. Dunn, was
unable to distinguish the nationality
of the strange craft which he saw, but
was insistent that they were subma-
rines. Capt Fred E. Small, in COM
mand of the station at Cross island
was equally certain that Dunn's state
ment was correct.
Prepares to Slip Into Boston.
1t was suggested that tug towing
a whaleback vessel might have ac-
counted for the statement of Dunn.
Both of them, it was argued, might
have been lost to view in the fog and
not because they had submerged.
The Navy department announced
that no American submarines were off
the Maine coast.
Information that no British subma-
rines were cruising in these waters
seems to create the impression in the
minds of many marine observers that
the Bremen was lodging about close
to the three-mile limit, preparing to
slip into Boston. Another possibility
considered was that the coast guard
crew might have seen the Deutsch-
land, driven out of her course, or else
sticking closely to shore.

A Quaint Italian Town.

Pavia is not very well known to the
tourist. For 200 years, until Charlie.
magne overthrow them, it was the
capital of the Lombard kings, the
kings of that one-time Teuton tribe
of Langobardi, who conquered Italy,
only to be themselves slowly con.
quered and become Italians, or, more
accurately, Romanized. 1t is they
who ruled over the great fertile plain
between the Alps and the Apennines.
In the Church of San Michele kings OF
Italy were crowned a thousand years
ago; here two Germans at least, Hen.
ry the Second-1004-and Frederick
Barbarossa 1855 - received upon
their brows that iron crown of the
Lombards" which conveyed the sover
eighty of Italy.

TROOPS EXPECT TO
GO TO THE BORDER
Are Confident They viii See AC-
tive Patrol Duty.
HINT SEEN IN A NEW ORDER
Announcement Made That Men RaV-
ing Less Than Month to Serve
VIII Be Released Before
Soldiers Go South.

San Antonio, Textile Wisconsin
troops now at Camp Wilson are more
confident than ever that they will see
some real patrol duty on the border be-
fore they are sent home. This belief
has been heightened by the recent post
ing Of an order authorizing the release,
when the troops leave for the border,
of men who have a month or less to
serve. The order also directs that
men whose enlistments expire soon
shall not be held under the three-year
reserve oath, but that they may re-en-
list If they desire.
There is a general belief that the
Badger soldiers will go farther south
after they return from their hike to
Leon Springs, where they are sched-
uled to have two weeks target prac-
tice
The belief of the men that they Will
go to the border is strengthened by the
fact that it is known that the Wiscon-
sin troops made very favorable I'M
preston upon General Funston. The
commander watched the dress drills OF
the Wisconsin regiments and COM
mended the men highly on their phys
ical appearance.
The Wisconsin troops have also
strongly impressed the regular army
officers by their ability to stand long
marches in the blazing sun. The
Badgers have made clean record in
this respect. On one day in march
Of between 10 and IL miles, with full
service equipment, only one man was
forced to drop out although the hike
was taken while the heat was intense.

Odd Places to Hide Cash.

The woman who, as just revealed in
the law courts, hid her savings on her
mothers grave in Forest Hill Gene
terry, probably hit upon a unique cache.
But there is nc saying. The person
who mistrusts savings banks generally
looks around for the most unlikely
spot in which to deposit wealth, and
more than one may hit on the same
idea. Old cannon, for instance, seem
to form favorable depOsitors. Quite
a quantity of jewelry was found some
while ago in a solitary gun which
stands in a fort at ShOreham, and about
the same time a bag containing 70
sovereigns was discovered In an old
cannon in Peel park, Bradford. From
one of the old Crimean cannon at Ltv-
erpool, also, some inquisitive young
sters once brought forth a soldiers

We are living in remarkable days.
The shortage Of paper has resulted in
the repulping of paper that already has

certain letters which seem to have

listing when mobilization was ordered.
This training will be big advantage
to the Wisconsin men when they are
taken out for rifle practice in Texas.
Many men in other regiments will have
to start where the Wisconsin men start
ed at Camp Douglas, with the newt
able result that the Badgers will stand
in the lead. For instance the Wiscon-
sin men are thoroughly familiar with
the principles of shooting, such as
proper breathing. proper method OF
pressing the trigger and holding the
rifle to prevent great jars and hard
kicking, setting sights for various dis
tances and figuring windage. All this
must be learned before a recruit can
hope TO hit a target.

Battery Members Will Stick.

Members of Battery A who are eli
gible for discharge under the provisions
for the release of soldiers who have
dependents will not leave the service,
according to Capt. Philip @. Westfall.
He declares that inasmuch as the
people of the state will aid families OF
soldiers, the artillerymen will remain
in service. They do not consider this
charity, but believe that the state
should see that the families of soldiers
are cared for. If there were an air Of
charity about it, the men would not ac-
cept, but they look at it in an entirely
different way.

Badger Camp Most Sanitary.

Badger troops, which have won
praise from regular chiefs since their
arrival in Texas because Of their
good conduct and appearance, have
gained still another distinction. The
camp of the Wisconsin brigade has
been declared the most sanitary of any
of the state troops on the border.
The sanitary officers of the Wiscon-
sin brigade have worked unremitting-
ly to bring the sanitary conditions Of
the camp to such a state that there
would be no room for Improvement.
There is not a speck of refuse in the
whole camp. And as a result there is
no place where flies or other disease
carrying insects may feed. Careless
ness will not be tolerated.
