formed as to his whereabouts and what he is accomplishing.
 The information if written, should be signed by the leader, and should state the place, date, hour and minute of it's dispatch. If this does not seem requisite to the young soldier. 1t must at all times be borne in mind that the commander is continually receiv- ing information from other sources other patrols probably, and that he assemblies and pieces togetlfer all that he obtains. The hour and minute when the information was gained may furnish the commander with a clue to 8 whole series of other facts which have been reported before. but which he was unable to interpret.
 As a simple illustration of the necessity of the time element, it will be seen that if a troop of cavalry is reported at certain spot at a certain hour by one patrol and a troop three miles up the road is reported by another patrol moving in the same direction, the only way in which the commander might know whether or not it was the same troop is by the time. If the reports of the two troops are timed, say, half an hour apart, the commander conclude that it is the same troop; if they are timed within ten minutes of each other. he natural ly conclude that two distinct troops are approaching.
 Tomorrow's article will be on the out post.

 Don't say that It doesn't make and dinerer,ce to the working man what country governs him. On the contrary. 1t makes more difference to him than to any one else. because the rich man can spend his time in travel or, buy his way into the privileged class if he finds political conditions oppressive.
 Don't break into lyric praise of universal training as a school of de- mocracy. Some armies are less dem ocratic than others, but all rest upon basis of command and implicit obedience. The army may level the rich and poor. but it doesn't mean equality between officers and men,"

There will be regret in many circles because of circumstances which pre- vent H. S. Tallard from serving as police commissioners. 1t had been hoped by many that MT. Tallard would be able to straighten out some of the problems attendant upon police work in this city. Other duties. how ever, demand his entire attention. The mayor will therefore be caused the further care of selecting some one else to fill this important post. It is to be hoped that some man of like calibre is named. some one who will rise above the level of petty politics and devote his time and attention to a betterment of the police depart ment.

A. P. DIVISION CHIEF DEAD.
Arthur W. Copp Sailed on Firs,
 Armed American Liner.

Arthur w. Copp Sailed on First
 Armed American Liner.
 Washington, June 12.-Arthur w. Copp, superintendent of the south ern division of The Associated Press. died here today ok complication of diseases after lingering illness. He was 49 years old.
 Before coming to Washington Mir. Copp had been superintendent of the western division at San Francisco and before that had served the Asso- ciated Press in many places anl in maQy capacities. Entering the serv- ice as a telegrapher nearly 25 years ago, he had risen to superintendent of division.
 Mf. Copp's last work was perhaps as he might have wished 1t, for when volunteer was called to sail on the American liner St. Louis as the first armed American ship to cross the submarine zone, he responded and made the perilous voyage for the Associated Press. The nervous strain probably added to the precariousness of his condition, the seriousness of which then was unknown to others. Soon after he returned to America he was taken to g. hospital.
 Twenty years before. as an Asso- ciated Press correspondent, he had served in Cuba during the Spanish American war.
 Mir. Copp was born in Madison. Wis, where he will be buried. Hs was unmarried.

Patrol work calls for the exercise other form ofS duty. Not only the young soldiers muscles, but his head also must be exceedingly active. He has many things to remember. much to watch out for, and must be able to transmit such pieces of information as he gains. The country must be carefully observed.
 When a hill is to be passed over, tho region beyond should first be ob- served by one man: in the same way, houses or enclosures should be ap- preached by a single man or avoided entirely. This for the reason that one man is distinctly less likely to be seen than the patrol as whole, but what is more to the point, the guard, encountering danger. would be able to warn the main body before 1t fell into a trap. Woods should generally be reconnoitered in thin skirmish line. This serves as a big rake, of which each man is 8 tooth. for combing the thicket.
 Patrol leaders, and the men as well. should know the uniforms. guidons will help in determining the class of troops sighted when no other means are available.
 Patrol leaders should send back important information as soon as it is gained unless the patrol itself is to return at once. In any case, 1t is tho duty of the leader to send reports to his commander with sufficient frequency to keep the commander in-
