FIELD ARTILLERY PLANNED
Organization of Such Brigade An
nounced BY Gen. Wood-WiIl
Use Cavalry in Units.

Columbus.-It has practically been
determined that Ohio is to have a bris
gade OF field artillery. For this pur'
pose the new regiment of Ohio cavalry
is to be turned into two regiments OF
field artillery. There already is one
regiment of artillery in the state. Tho
proposition to transform the cavalry
into field artillery was brought back
from Washington by Adjutant General
George H. Wood. 1t rests on condt
tions in Europe, where cavalry, as an
active fighting unit, has practically be-
come obsolete.
The French and English Govern
ments have signifed that they can not
use any cavalry, but will have use fer
good field artillery. At the base OF
the rejection of cavalry lies the forage
question, available tonnage being nee
essary for food and raw material
France lacks surplus forage.
On his return to the Capitol General
Wood called a conference of cavalry
officers and outlined the situation.
They readily agreed to the transforma.
tion. For the individuals the change
means hard work and much study
This feature was not overlooked in the
deliberations. The experience of prac
| tically all of the trained men has been
in the cavalry branch of the service
| which is entirely different from the
artillery branch. 1t was also pointed
out that additional recruiting will be
necessary to supply men for the new
regiments of artillery.

To peve,oD Vast Goal Field.

Not only is Longyear City the most
northerly mining town, but it bids fair
to become a place Of Importance, now
that a Norwegian company has taken
over the vast coal fields of Spitzbergen.
The enterprise is on q very large scale.
The coal fields which the Norwegian
company will develop cover an area
of over 656 square miles, Of which one
seventh has been surveyed, and it is
estimated that this alone will yield
something like 100000 tons Of coal
from the first stratum, and the second
stratum will probably yield as much
more. There are other coal veins of
which little is vet known. The en-
terprise is regarded as national one,
and eventually thousands of miners
will be employed.

Back ard Agriculture.

A movep. i for backyard agricul-

be extendeI &c this country, says the
Providence H5lletin. It is not neces-
sary to hs re y large tract Of land for
gardening. e'ach can be done at small
expense on city yard of ordinary
size. An area f 40 by so feet is worth
cultivating. L natoes, lettuce, rad
ishes, beans ard onions. all valuable
food products, can be grown within
the limits of house lot. Backyard
agriculture will not support the peo-
pie, but it will add materially to the
food supplies of the country. and thus
will have effect upon prices. The
Canadian government is wise in its
advocacy of "a vegetable garden for

The Flood Legends.

attractive by the faint indications from
geology that there may once have been
a continent in the midst of the Allan

virtually impossible co correlate it
with the existence of man, and particu-
larly with man in such a state of de-
velopment as thGl which the legends
depict.
The deluge story is so persistent in
human annals that it must have had
an origin in some actual event, or
series of events, but science, at pres
ent, can throw no definite light upon
it, and study of the myth-making fac

Delegates from the largest cities in

and others, fought the adoption of the
resolution, but were not successful in
stopping action.
The association reversed itself, as q
similar resolution was defeated at the
| Cleveland meeting a year ago. The
nurses over the state are said to be al
most a unit against it.
In his speech on the convention
floor DIR. Dunham said:
'"The Ohio Legislature passed sim

House Of Delegates is a reversal of it,
action taken a year ago. The littl'

The American navy is represented
In the war zone, and an American war
ship has had fight with a German
submarine.
SO much was revealed on Wednes-
day by the British admiralty, which
announced the presence in British wa

stroyers. 1t mentioned the brush"
with the submarine, but did not tell
the result. Both the British and the
American naval authorities maintain

The destroyers, which are under the
general command of Rear Admiral w.
S. Sims, arrived at Queenstown and
were inspected by a British officer,
who asked the American commander
when he could be ready for business.
1--WE can start at once" replied the
American, and they did.
There Is reason to believe some of
these destroyers took part in the re-

Artistic Methods of the camorra and
Malta in Sharp Contrast With Crude
Customs of the Docks.

Here's how the different ''bad men,
of Manhattan engage in the pleasant
pastime of dumping 'em off,
Along the water froL.s, where many
a man is sent to the happy hunting
ground each year, the thugs are not
artistic In this section of town live
the rough-and-tumble fighters of the
docks. A blow from an iron fist,
knife in the back or a Delaying pin
over the coco serves its purpose
generally followed by the hasty de-
scent of the victim into the river.
In the Mulberry Bend district, how
ever, where the Camorra and the
Mafia strike terror into the hearts OF
the Italian-born citizens, there is an
artistic element that enters into the
execution of crime. The busy streets
thronged with people will be >jammed
to capacity when the news of a shoot
ing or the swift keen message of the
Camorra is discovered. Upon the ar
rival of the police, no matter how
many people may have witnessed the
actual performance of the crime, there
can never be found anyone who knows
the least about it.
The vengeance of the secret society
is swift and cruel. Its very mystery
is more mysterious because you can
never get an italian to admit any such
organization exists, and if one man is
secured who was seen to commit the

away at the time of the shooting.
In Chinatown death also comes

ing through closed blinds no Chinese
can be seen 60 seconds after the news
of murder is flashed by some mysti-
cal method, through the quarter.
Murder in Chinatown is generally
the vengeance of a tong against a
member of some rival tong. Chinese
as a rule, take little personal vengeance
without the backing of their own par
ticular fraternal order. Their weapons
are the ak, "45'' or native knife.
In some of the other Oriental sec

not desire to leave school were of nc
avail, as the order absolutely closed
classes to them.
