Who IMBIBE TOO MUCH
Three Militiamen. Found Drunk at
Armoy. Dismissed With Repri-
mand Because of First Offense.

The idea Of certain members Of the
District militia that camping. prelim-
mary to entraining for the border, might
be converted into "hurrah celebra ton "
was dispelled once and for all at the
Street Armory yesterday, when for
NAL notice was read by the compa ny
commanders that any man found under
the influence of liquor while in uni
form. would not only be dishonorobly
discharged from the service but sent
to the workhouse at occoquan for thirty
days.
The order was the result Of the ac-
tions OF three militismen who reported
at the armory yesterday in a befuddled
condition. They were Immediately plac-
ed under arrest. and probably will be
court-martialed today. Because, IN each
, instance, It happens to be a first Of

severe reprimand. But the company COM
manders announced that, frst oftense or
not, there will be no other escapes d"
Formal warning has gone out, and those
disregarding it will be stripped Of their
uniforms in disgrace.
Even the slightest evidence Of intox-
ication, 1t was announced. will be sum-
marily dealt with. The men have been
specifically warned to avoid the stronger
forms Of alcoholic stinulants, and to

BY the end of the day the field re-
sembled slightly some OF the European
roads that are pictured as rutted by the
great loads drawn over them. The re-
cent rains left puddles of mud and water
and the going" of the big trucks in
these was slow. Several times the
rockies" had to get to work with shovel
and pick and dig the trucks out of the
soft mud.
Puddles VIII Be ruled.
The number Of open and stagnant mud
holes on the camp ground is a menace
to the health of the camp. but Capt
Nevils said that they would be filled

the morning the whole establishment was

STRIKE DOESN'T WORRY
OFFICERS OF MILITIA
Tie-up of Railroads Would Mean Com
Wandering of Troop Trains by
Government to Move Militia.

The possibility Of general strike on
the railroads Of the country, which may
be almost coincident with the troop or
ders to entrain for the border. is not
worrying officers of the District militia

Wen march there. AS a matter Of fact,
except that it would take too much time,
1t would be a splendid thing II we had to
walk. 1t would harden up the men-and
hardening is what we all need.
But Of course, no such necessity will
really arise. If there should be a strike,
the government could and probably
would, commander such trains as are
necessary, move the troops wherever they
are to go, and then settle with the rail-
roads afterwards"
