Mccarthy, OF Lehigh, has been
given a careful preparation for the
events. He throws the javelin and
the discuss well, and is a good run

star at any one event. but he Is good
at all. His coach thinks that he will
make a good showing.

going to prove IT on, Friday night.
Brendlin again will compete for the
title at the New York Turn Verein,

against his younger and more nimble
rivals he is certain to make q first-
class showing. With o. w. Holmes,

 Find Wife Welded.

Torrington, June 21.-Frank J. Moyle' who n,ysteriously disappeared IT years ago and was supposed to have daeo' returned to Torrington. Saturday, reg istered at the Allen House under ms old name. and was recognized by some of the associates of the days when ne was very much on earth in Torrangton.
 Movie was somewhat surprised a& the changes that have taken place III the old town during his absence, ana pa rticularly in the change in his ram ilv ties. His wife, whom he is said to have left without word of explana- ton. he found remarried and with a fine family of children by her second marriage growing up.

The State Council of Defense is re- ported to have frowLed upon the utilization of Home Guards for pro- tective purposes at factories making government supplies at a profit to the factory owners or stockholders In such corporations.
 It has been suggested that during the interim before the National Guard will be called into service, factories hire and train private guariies a.ong military lines as far as possible; these guards to be fully armed by special permit If the state or city susiioTi- ties.
 Officials of the state believe that the Home Guard which was formed to replace the National Guard should be used for more serious emergency than that demanding watchman ser vice.

RECRUITING WEEK
 SET ASIDE UNDER
 WILSON'S ORDER
President Issues Proclama- tion to Fill Ranks of
 Regular Army.

Washington, June 21.--President Will son issued a proclamation yesterday designating the week of June 2S-3o as recruiting week for the regular army and called upon unmarried men with out dependents to enroll for war ser vice In order that the ranks of the regulars might be dled promptly.
 The proclamation follows:
 T hereby designate the period or June 23 to June 30 next, as recruiting week for the regular army and call upon unmarried men between the ages of IS and 40 years. who have no de- pendents and who are not engaged In pursuits vitally necessary to the pros ecution of war, to present themselves for enlistment during the week herein designated. to the number of 10000.
 WOODROW WILSON.
 The Presidents action was taken at the request of army officials, who have been seriously concerned over the slow rate of recruiting for the regular army. aeepite the fact that the war depart memt's recruiting agencies cover every section of the country and that men arc asked to serve only for the period of the war.
 It he'd been hoped that the regular service could be brought to its whole war strength by approximately 300, 900 men by June 30, which would have permitted the war department to carry out its plans in regard to training of all the forces to be raised and also as to the dispatch of armies to France. For several days, however. the aver age enrolment for the army day has been little more than 1000 men, in- stead of the 5000 or more the depart ment hoped to secure
 Yesterday,s recruiting bulletin shows that since April 1, 121, ,se3 men have been enrolled as war volunteers of the dSs. .sss necessary to bring the service to war strength. The army, therefore, Is now about 10000 men short of war strength arsd the Presidents call, the ,nrst he had made directly for war volunteers, is designed to fin In this gap as quickly as possible. es

NATIONAL FORESTS TO
SUPPLY WOOD FOR
FUEL NEXT WINTER

The department of ,riculture is
sued the following statement:
TO meet any possible coal shortage
IN the west next winter more eXtens-
i've use of wood from the ma
tonA forests is urged by the govern
ment foresters, who are advising both
ranchers and town dwe!lers to be
forehandei in making arrangements
for the supply of their fuel needs
The supervisors of the 1913 ma
tional forests will be instructed to at
ford all possible facilities to local
residents wishing to obtain cordwood,
which settler may obtain free for
their home use and which is sold at
low rates to persons cutting ana
hauling in order to sell to Others
Since the material thus utilized is
mainly dead timber, its NOV. IL, it is
explained, lips clear up the forest
and thus lessons the fire menace
Timber which is ect-infested, or
old and deteriorating, or otherwise
damaged or undesirable from the
forester's standpoint, IS also disposed
of for fuel purposes. The demand in
the next II months is expected to
break all records.
There is a possibility Of coal
shortage because OF the increased de-
mand for coal .. Industrial plants
and the lack of sufficient means of
transports ton. 1t is believed that it
will be quite feasible and economical
for many western communities to
utilize an increased quantity of ma
tional forest wood for fuel next winter.
