stranger believed to be German, who
shouted "Hoch der kaiser" as he
stood drinking at a saloon bar here,
narrowly escaped lynching at the
hands of Thermopolisans, whom his
cry infuriated.
AS the stranger lifted the glass to
his lips after shouting his toast, he
was knocked down by a miner A
rope appeared as il. by magic and in
a moment the dazed man was hang

Before his life was extinct the
counsel OF cooler heads prevailed,
and he was cut down by the city mar
shall, but was then unconscious. He
wac revived with cold water and
forced to kneel and kiss the Ameri-

WHAT THE MILITARY
TRAINING BILLS PROVIDE

The Chamberlain bill introduced
at the last session of Congress pro-
viding for compulsory military train
ing, affects every youth in the coun-
try between the ages of 10 and %.
Six months training in an army camp
is made necessary under the terms of
this bill.
One year of intensive military
training is proposed in the projected
plan of the army general staff, and
young men of approximately the
same ages fixed in the Chamberlain
bill wonId be affected. The theory
is advanced that such youths are of
the least economic value to society
Military training at this age, it is
pointed out, would result in minimum
interference with permanent business
connections and the establishment of
families later on.

Military Camp Attracts
Many to Chilicothe

Since preliminary operations have be-
gun in the new training camp at Chilli
Gothic. Ohio the town has been taxed to
more than capacity in accommodating
the many visitors that have focKeo
there during the last several days. Only
one good hotel Is in Chlllcothe, and at
present It Is filled.
The insignificant little city is now
waking up to the fact that something
big is being pulled or right under Its
nose. and new activities are to be seen
on every side. Rumors are to the effect
that several men are contemplating the
construction Of a temporary hotel to
house the extra population. but nothing
definite has been arranged in regard to
the project. owing to the fact that 1t
is doubtful whether 1t will prove a pay
inE investment.
At present. three companies Of Ohio

most OF whom are from the camp at
