Scotland TO Introduce his newly ac-
qttired American wife 10 his waiting
parents. One day he came in with his
pockets full of $40 gold pieces. with

money the handsomest coin in the
world, and said ii nude nan feel

Most Sanitary City Is That Constructed
in Il Few Days at Camp Dunno,
at Springfield.

Springfield, Ill, July 12.-On June
large part of the Illinois national
guard at Springfield and it became
necessary to provide suitable quarters
for a force of 10000 men, Camp Lin
of the state militia, afforded sufficient
quarters for but 1000 of this number
and it became necessary to prepare
the state fair grounds for the recep-
ton of the remaining 1900.
In transmitting the order to mo-
Billie the troops to Adjutant General
Dickson, the first thought of Governor
Dunno was for the safety OF the troops
and the secretary of the state board OF
health was directed by the governor to
make an exhaustive survey of both
camp sites, to pass upon their present
sanitary status and their proposed
sanitary installation and TO report TO
the adjutant general, making such rec
concentrations as proper regard for
the health of the troops might lndi-
cate.
During the first inspection several
suggestions were made by the seCre-
tary OF the state board of health, rec
ommending changes in the location of
latrines and their further removal from
close proximity to sleeping quarters,
kitchens, and mess tents. Upon the
completion Of this inspection, report
was promptly submitted to the gov
ernor and to the adjutant general, en-
bracing the following points:
The state fair grounds were COM
mended as a camp on account of the

GETTING PLENTY
OF HOT FIGHTING
American Citizens With Allied Armies
Are in Midst of Greatest Bat
ties of World.

British Headquarters, France
American citizens have seen hotter
fighting in the last two weeks than
any American since the Appomattox
campaign. They have endured as
heavy shell fire as the German guns
ever directed at the British frontand
know what it is to charge into the
German trenches with bayonet and
bomb in pouring rain through the mud
in the small hours of the morning.
There are more Americans scatter
ed among the Canadian battalions than
most people realize Some of these
were living in Canada when the war
began; some crossed the border and
enlisted for the sake of being in a
scrap" some felt ii a duty to strike
a blow for the allies.
If a man took the oath and put on
a uniform a Canadian recruiting agent
did not ordinarily bother, if he were
a sound man, which side of the Dor
der he came from. Besides, the re
Cruit sometimes had a bad memory on
that score himself. What part Of
Canada are you from" British Off
GER asked a Canadian private.
Out west, sir
What part of the west?'
'The far west. sir"
learned yet to give a definite answer
to an officers question:"
Spokane, sir"
Where is that-in Manitoba? ?"
In that neighbOrhood, sir"
After a man has been wounded the
truth is more likely to come out. AT
ter an examination of a bad jaw frac-
ture the surgeon said to one wounded
American:
You've a bad smash, but we shall
pull you through and fix you up as
good as new"
Are you giving it to me straight"
was the feeble question.
Yes, you can depend on it"
We'll, if that's the dope and no kid
ding, | wish you'd write to my mother
out in Ohio and tell her"
Those who were looking for a scrap
frankly admit they have had it. No
one questions how they stood up to it
along with their Canadian comrades.
Nor are they all privates. Three
officers who were killed in the re-
taking of Observatory hill were Amer
leans.

RAILROAD men IN
FIGHT over CARS
Foreman of Rock Island Crew Strikes
Burlington Brakeman When Latter
Buries Formers "String."
sWITCHMAN is BEATEN IN HEAD
George BrittOn Receives Orders From
His Own Road and Is Assaulted
When He Executes Them.

It's a stiff game working for more
than one boss, but when a brakeman
receives orders of two different kinds
the best he can do is to do what he
thinks is the wisest.
George Z. Britton, a brakeman on
the Burlington line, chose the latter
course and today he displayed dis
cOlored eye and other signs of having
received a beating, when he appeared
in police court as complaining witness
against William Smith, foreman of
the switching crew of the Rock Island
lines.
1t develops that Britton received
orders from the foreman of the Bur
lington road to transfer some cars
from the yards of the %" to the Rock
Island tracks. The roads have an I'M
derstanding, it seems, as to where TO
run the cars in, and Britton claims
that his superior instructed him to
place the cars on track No in the
Rock Island yards, which it was said
is the place where the roads have
agreed upon to run transferred cars.
Britton, in running his cars in on
the track, buried" five cars on the
Rock Island tracks. An argument en-
sued between Smith and Britton when
Smith ordered him to take the cars
off the track. The controversy end
ed when Smith struck Britton.
Use Railroad VernacuIar.
Britton had Smith arrested and at
the trial today spectators in the court
room were furnished an interesting
scene. The principals in giving their
testimony used many railroad phrases
which had to be interpreted for the
court One in particular seemed to
confuse the magistrate, when the term
of "burying the cars" was used. After
the testimony was finally translated
from the railroad vernacular to
straight English, the court assessed
Smith, foreman of the Rock Island
crew, So and costs.
