Good Guessing.

Al and | made little wager early
yesterday morning as TO the num-
Der OF candidates We would have in
the office during the day. the one
making the best guess was TO get a
week OFF for a fishing trip about the
first of May. AIS guess was 22 and
mine "a and OF all candidates there
were 23 to see us. After weighing
the matter from every angle we de-
cided it was a happy split and it's
going to be 90 for both of US on
May !.

BACK FROM QUANTICO.

c. H. Barnes, general secretary of the local Y. M. CA A. and at present engaged as head of the Y. M. C. A. work among the marines stationed at Quantico on the Potomac river, ar rived in this city yesterday. He re- ports great progress in his work. As sociated with him at the camp are Physical Director Warren $. Slater and Membership Secretary James c. Gripp, both members of the local association staff. When the men arrived at Quantico, the task of caring for the moral and physical welfare awaited them. They had to take care of hun dreds of men thrown together waiting the call to duty. They were handi- capped by the lack of quarters and equipment. Since then, however, bar racks have gone up all over the camp, a Y. M C. A. building has been erected and another will be in the course of construction soon. MT. Barnes expects to return to his work tomorrow.

UNIFORMS FOR RED CROSS.
Davison and Ex-President Taft to
 Rank as Major General.

Washington, Aug. 7.-Oficials of the Red Cross and probably those of the Y. M. c. A., serving with the American army in Europe will wear the American uniform.
 Henry P. Dawson, chairman of the Red Cross war council and William H. Taft, chairman of the central committee, will be recognized as major generals, should they cross the Atlantic. Lesser rank will be con- ferred upon minor officials Mem bers of MT. Davisons committee and MT. Taft's committee will be given the rank of brigadier generals.
 Operations of the Red Cross and the Y. M. C.. A. are being hampered because it's officials in Europe do not receive the recognition accorded to warers of uniforms. Their commits sions will be signed by Secretary Baker but will confer no military au- thority obligations or rights They are intended more as certificates of Identification and of an indication of confidence of the government.
