LARGEST
VOLUNTEER ARMY
FORMED BY EARL
Kitchener Recruited 100000
Fighting Men Without Con
scription. #
FAILURE OF DRIVE
BROUGHT CRITICISM

London, June 6.-Of several things
that entitled Earl Kitchener to a place
in world history, the most notable is
that he organized the largest volun-
teer army the world has ever seen, in
the greatest war of all times.
Within year from the sudden out
break of the European war in August,
1914, the ranks of British fighting men
were quadrupled by an increase from
less than one million to nearly 4,O00,-
900.
All other Great Powers that entered
the war had huge standing armies and
compulsory military service. Great
Britain alone faced the issue with con-
fidence that it's people would readily
respond to the call of King and Coun-
try without compulsion, and the pre-
cipitous developments that led to the
war found both the people and the
government unanimous in the verdict
that Kitchener of Khartum was the

Probate Judge Edmund w. Bazille
set July 3 as the date for the hearing
on the petition. Any persons opposed
to the appointment of Mr.. Hill must
appear on that day and show cause
why letters of administration should
not be granted.
Leading railroad officials and finan-
ciers here were not surprised at the
action taken by the heirs, as it had
been rumored that Mr.. Hill had left
no will, and that Louis w. Hill prob
ably would take charge of the vast
holdings.
The estate of MI. Hill had been var
iously estimated at from $150,000, 900
to $3.50, 100000.
Louis w. Hill announced that he
would carry out his fathers policies,

LIFE LOST WHEN THE
PACKET, ELEANOR, SINKS

Memphis, Tenn, June 6.-Four per-
sons are known to have been drown
ed and 25 or 80 others, mostly negro
deck hands, are missing, and are be-
lieved to have gone down when the
Lee Line steamer, Eleanor, collapsed
last night in the Mississippi, 20 miles
north of Memphis. An officer of the
boat walked to Memphis with the
news today.
The Eleanor tied in remote spot
to escape the tornado that swept the
valley. A heavy gust of wind drove
the craft into the bank and it over
turned. Many of those aboard were
in the cabin. A relief vessel left to-
night for the place of the accident.
The Eleanor was small vessel.

alton at Early Meeting.

Biloxi, Miss.-Biloxi's mayor and
board Of aldermen have decided to
hold the proposition of building a sea
wall in this city to protect the beach
front for a distance of several miles
in abeyance until decision Is reached
by the supreme court OF the state on
test case sent up from circuit court to
test the validity OF the Harrison coun-
ty bond issue. Members of the coun-
Gil state that in the meantime plans
will be put under way looking to the
construction Of sloping beach to pro-
tect the beach boulevard. They state
that all members Of the council favor
sioping beach and that the beach
property owners are in favor Of this
kind of protection instead Of the con-
struction of sea wall.
Owing to the universal desire OF
residents of Harrison county for a
sloping beach instead Of an expensive
sea wall 1t Is likely that this kind OF
protection will be given in the county
outside of the municipalities and In
Biloxi, Gulfport and other municipal
tiles on the beach. Plans for a slop
ing beach outside the municipalities
are now being drawn up, and will be
submitted at a later date to the board
