.Intimations that the Union League is

received in the leagues club house today
with Indignation.
TITS silly! It's rot! It's not worth pay

Of the directors said Of n letter to the

which the Union Leagues present attitude
was questioned. Here Is the offending let

TO the Editor Of the Evening Ledger:
Sir-What is tho matter with the
Union League? Once it had voice,
and whenever there was a national
crisis that voice was heard from one
end of the country to the other.
Why so dumb now? Is II because
there are some Germans in the mem

Has it come to this? VETERAN.

leaped the back fence and got away. The
negro with Abes striped suit and patent
leather shoes ran on to Market street, where
he was spotted by Patrolman Steth, OF the
Thirty-second street and Woodland HSenue
station. Steth drew his revolver and kept 1t
barking after the fleeing negro. Neighbors
who were reading the war news over the
breakfast table were unnerved by the shoot
ing and rushed into the street. The negro
was good runner, but he was considerably
mpeded by Abe's shoes which were too
small for him, and by Abe's trousers which
were too tight In the seat. AS he ran his
squeaking shoes were as noisy as a lot of
mice caught in trap. At Forty-fourth and

CHESTER LOYAELY
STANDS BY THE FLAG
Pennsylvania Military College
Tenders Services for Train
ing Citizen Soldiers
By a Stdr Correspondent
CHESTER, Pa, A


Imbued with an Unsuitable spirit for
practical preparedness, the historic old town
of Chester, has taken initial steps for active
participation in war;
Braving a cold rainstorm. eighty boys
and 100 men yesterday afternoon and last
night presented themselves at the Pennsyl-
vania Military College for rigid training in
the art of war.
This was the result of the recent offer
of the military staff of the college to pre-
pare men who are unable to join the Ma
tional Guard and high school boys to be-
come citizen soldiers. Two corps will be
formed the High School Cadet Corps and
the Citizen Training Corps. The first is
to include boys more than sixteen years old
from Chester High School, eighty of whom
have already enlisted. and other students
from schools throughout Delaware County.
The second is open to all men from the age
of eighteen to fifty-five.
Colonel Charles E. Hyatt, commandant of
p. NJ. c., last week rendered Government
equipment of the West Point of the Key
stone State" and the military staff of the
college to the city for training purposes
The course will include at least ten weeks
Of rigid training, covering two drills a week
two hours to each drill. Instruction is to
be under the direction of the military staff
of L. NJ. &. and by the cadet officers. In
events of necessity the campaign will be
carried into and possibly throughout the
summer months.
Captain Lewis S. Morey, Y. S. A., hero
of Carrizal, is in supreme command Of the
work.
Prominent men throughout the State WIS.,
tied Chester last night to review the first
rally. Colonel Frank G. Sweeney, inspector
general of the Pennsylvania National
Guard declared the move to be "signif-
cant" Mayor w. S. Mcdowell, of Chester.

he declared that not more than 1 per cent
of the total membership Is Of German birth

There's nothing to the accusation made
In that letter." he continued. Two months
ago 1900 members in a great meeting unani-
mously put themselves on record as being
ready to back President Wilson to the full
est extent, in spite OF his politics.
