HEALTH CAMPAIGN COMING
ALONG NICELY

The campaign of the Mason County
Health League toward securing money
for a sanitary survey Of the county is
progressing nicely and larger part
of the sum needed has already been
raised. The paper campaign of last
week was very successful, a large
amount of paper being collected by
those in charge. This will be sold and
a neat sum will be raised from the
sale. The various schools of the coun-
ty are helping to raise the money,
the Dover School collecting old paper
and rubber to sell for the fund. The
Minerva School made a large contribu-
ton of paper and also a money con-
tribution. The campaign will last
only few days longer.

navy VOLUNTEERS
Called BY U. S.
President Orders Sea Forces Recruit.
ed to War Strength-IwO New
Military Departments are d.
rected to BE Created In
Atlantic Coast Again.

Washington, March 25-President
Wilson took steps today to place the
nation on war footing
By executive orders he directed that
the navy be recruited without delay
to full authorized war strength of ST.
600 enlisted men. Taken in connec-
ton with emergency naval construc-
ton already ordered, this means that
the President has exercised the full
limit Of his legal powers as comman-
der-in-chief to prepare the navy for
war.
For the army, the President directs
that TWO new military departments be
created in the Atlantic coast region.
The order means that the task of Or
sanizing whatever army Congress
may authorize will be divided among
six departmental commanders instead
of four in the interest of speed and
efficiency in mobilizing.
The third step was to assume as a
national duty the task of protecting
American industries from domestic
disorders in the event. of hostilities.
For this purpose eleven full infantry
regiment, two separate battalions and
one separate company Of national
guard were called back into the fed
eral service to act as national police
in important districts. Supplementing
these troops, regiment of Pennsyl-
vania guard and two companies of
Georgia infantry en- route home from
the border for muster out were order
ed retained in the federal service. The
Presidents orders were made known
in terse official statements issued by
both departments No explanation ac-
companied them except the statement
that reorganization of the military de-
partments, effective May /, was de-
signed to facilitate the Capitalization
of command
The two new departments are the
northeastern, comprising the New
England states, and the southeastern
comprising the states in the old south.

Tappahannock, June IS, Estimates
of the monetary loss incurred in the
disastrous fire which swept the busi-
ness section Saturday night, place the
total between $4,000 and $4,000.
Practically the whole Of the business

sidential portion OF the town was
saved only after most desperate hght
in which the volunteer bucket brigade
was assisted by the women Of the VIII
lage old and young.
Bracenharb and Hickman, the Ger

folk. The federal agent is expected
here Tuesday morning at Z o'clock.
He will make thorough investigation
OF the fires origin. the circumstance
attending the Germans arrival on Fri
day and incidents following their ar
rest.
The two men, who are both young,

say they came to this country after
the outbreak of the present war. They
are from New York and both have re-
gistration cards obtained in that city
They claim they came to Tappahan-

BROOKLYN HANDICAP

Whitney's Other Horse. Regret, Takes
Second Place, Losing Out By
Narrow Margin.

Aaueduct Race Track, June 25.-
Harry Payne Whitney"s horses, Bor-
row and Regret, finished first and sec
ond in the running of the historic
Brooklyn handicap today. A head
separated the Whitney pair at the
finish. Old Rosebud, brought on from
Kentucky especially for the classic,
finished third, half a length in the
rear.
From the moment the barrier was
opened until an eighth of mile from
home the eleven horses which started
in the race were grouped so closely
that it was hard to tell which was in
the lead.
The dash down the long home
stretch was like cavalry charge. The
racers were stretched across the track.
practically all abreast. Regret had a
slight advantage with Roamer and
Old Rosebud alongside OF her. The
final quarter pole found the terrific
pace telling on the leaders, with the
result that Robinson, on Regret, sent
his mount up into the front line, while
Roamer dropped back.
Borrow laid behind the pace to the
last eighth. where he squeezed through
on the rail. The race to the wire be-
tween the Whitney pair brought the
crowd of 5000 to its feet, cheering
wildly. Borrow. however, was in his
stride and nosed out his stable
mate. Borrow's time. 1:49 as, bet
