What Is a Days March?

The Army Drill Book tells that
trained and hardened infantry can
cover from twenty to twenty-five
miles a day when in small bodies,
AS the size of the command increas-
es the distance covered becomes less,
as the rate is lowered and time is
needed to get all the units into and
out of camp. With a regiment or
less of average troOps-reguiars-
marching over average roads, the
rate should be from two and three
quarters to three miles an hour.
Larger bodies will travel from two
to two and a half miles an hour,
while a division cannot be expected
to accomplish more than twelve and
a half miles a day.
OF course, all these figures will
vary with different conditions of
roads and weather. Unframed
troops could not approach them until
hardened. Though they might do
better for a day or two, they could
not keep up the steady pace OF the
seasoned regulars for long dis
lance. Marching with full equip
ment is hard physical work and, like
every other form of labor, requires
a proper period of training. The
seasoned force will keep up a steady
pace, with ten-minute halts every
hour, a nfteen-minute stop being
made at the end of the first half or
three-quarters of an hour. Green
troops are apt to struggle badly

one of the ranchers, S. d. Canton,
offered to adopt the infant for his
own and raise him i'm luxury.
Many Homes Offered.
A half dozen other wealthy but
childless lonely ranchers wanted to
take the child. They looked on him
longingly and cuddIed him as he lay
in his box at the Mendez cabin.
But Manuel Mendez, who makes
a dollar and half a day, on the days
he works, shook his head. He says
the baby is his, for he found it. He
offers to raise it with his brood and
see to it that the fear of God, the
beauty of labor and black beans are
instilled in appropriate proportions.
Mrs. Mendez agrees with him.
Try Legal Process.
Now the lonely, childless ranch
ers are wondering If legal process
could give them the mystery baby
What's the answer to it all? Will
the baby be raised in dire poverty or

An Apt Pupil.

A we'll known lawyer tells this
good story of his efforts to instruct
his office boy. One morning in mid
summer the young master-of-mill-
ions-to-be blew into the Office, toss
ed his cap at a hook, and announced:
Say Mr.. Blank, they's a ball game

The attorney was willing. but
thought a lesson in good manners
would not be amiss, Jimmy" he
said kindly, that is not the way to
ask a favor. Now you come over
here and sit down and I'll show You
how to do it," The boy took the
Office chair and his employer picked
up the cap and stepped outside. Then
he opened the door softly, walked
quietly to the opposite side of the
room, hung the cap securely on the
hook and. turning, said to the small
boy in the big chair: please, sir,
there is a ball game at the park to-

NEGROES LYNCHED
BY FLORIDA MOB
THREE MBN AND TWO WOMEN
TAKEN FROM JAIL AND
HANGED.

Gainesville, Fla, Aug. 19.-Five
negroes, three men and two women,
were taken from the Jail at Newber-
ry, Fla, early to-day and hanged by
mob and another negro was shot and
killed by deputy sheriffs near Jones'
Vile, Fla, as the result of the kill
ing yesterday of Constable S. G..
wynne aid the shooting of DR.. L. G..
Harris by Boisey Long, a negro. The
lynched negroes were accused of aid
ing Long to escape.
Posses of several hundred men to-
night are searching the woods about
Newberry, eighteen miles from here,
for trace of Long. Further trouble
was feared.
Dispatches from Newberry tonight
said that the mob that lynched the
FIVE negroes was composed of about
200 men and worked quietly and rap
idly. After gaining entrance to the
Jail they took the victims about a
mile from town and hanged all on
one oak tree. Not a shot was fired
the dispatch said.
The negro shot near Jonesville al
so was said to have aided Long to
escape.
Wynne and DIR. Harris were shot
when they went to Longs home at
Newberry early yesterday to arrest
him on a charge of stealing hogs.
