rested by Post Office Inspectors.

Charged with rifiing the mail Norman
+. Standiford. twenty-four years old,
of Belair. Nd, was arrested yesterday
afternoon by Detectives Burlingame

Barclay and Saffell. He had been en-
ployed as a substitute letter carrier for

dence to be used against him, and, they
stated, they recovered any number OF
articles that are alleged to have been
taken from the mails.
The articles recovered included furs
vanity cases. fountain pens and
watches. Considerably more than 1000
cancelled postage stamps were found in
Standiford's house, and, it is charged
they represent packages he is alleged
to have taken from the mails and
rified.
I Standiford came here at the time OF
his appointment, his wife and baby
coming only three days ago and joining
him at the ID street home. bond of
$4,000 was asked in the case, and the
prisoner was held because he was un-
able to get surety.

Prohibitionists Issue Statement of
Number of Arrests for Last
Three Months, 1916.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
RICHMOND. Va, January 20.-Inter-
esting data are being compiled by some
of the prohibitionists of the state,
showing the workings of the prohibition
law and the conditions for the last
three months of the year. The new
law was not in operation till November
!. and for that reason the comparison
is made for the three months ending
December 81 last. The actual number
of arrests is considered, and it is shown
that the numbA of arrests for Decem-
ber was only about one-third that for
October. the last month in which liquor
was sold openly.
Figures From Four Cities.
The comparison is made of four of
the larger cities of the state. The
figures are as follows:
Richmond-Arrests in October, 252
in November. 6s; in December, 61.
Norfolk-Arrests in October, 46S: in
November. IT'S: in December. 1877.
Danville-Arrests in October, 1853; in
November. IS; in December. "a.
Newport News-Arrests in October
2os: in November, '125; in December. S.
In Richmond more than one-half of
the Jail has been closed for lack OF
patronage" Sergt. Satterfield says
and there are at this time less than one
hundred inmates, whereas before the
state went dry. November 1, there were
more than 300. The same conditions
obtain in other cities of the state, and
in Lynchburg the city farm, where
drunks have been confined, will have to
employ help to keep the place from
going to ruin, for there are no pris-
oners.

Editorial
Now, quickly-without look
ing-whose picture appears ON
those crisp dollar bills reposing
in your pocket or wallet?
The pictures of two OF our
Presidents grace the front OF
the present issue of dollar sill
yer certificates, but not one
person IN five hundred can tell
you. without looking, whose
pictures they are.
You, yourself, don't know
nor does any one Ill your
household.
Isn't it strange how we over
look these little things? Pretty
nearly every one has occasion
to handle at least one dollar
bill a day, but so little do we
think of the matter that we fail
to recognize the details of en-
craving.
Notwithstanding all this,
however, these self-same dollar
bills are pretty good things to
have around the house.
And, THE STORE OF
GREATER SERVICE is very
much concerned about making
your dollar bills do a full 100
cents worth of work.

FUNSTON REVIEWS
DISTRICT BATTERY
Organization Makes Fine
Showing on Inspection by
Commanding General.
EARLY RETURN EXPECTED

CAMP OF BATTERY b. FIELD AR
TILLERY, D. C. N c., Douglas. Ariz..
January II. by maiI.-Gen. Frederick
Funston, commanding the Southern
Department. yesterday morning in
spected and reviewed Battery b. Field
Artillery N G. ID. c., together with
other National Guard organizations on
the drill ground near Pirtlevi1le. Ariz..
adjacent to the artillery camp which
bears his name. The District battery
led the review and made an excellent
showing.
1t is understood here that the pur-
pose of Gen. Funston's visit was to
pick troops for early movement
home. which he is contemplating, and
the battery has been practically as
sured that it will be included in the
next orders. which probably will be
issued within week. The battery's
long service here and the fact that
now ID is the oldest organization. in
point of service in this district having
been stationed in Arizona nearly three
months longer than any OF the other
state organizations. are the basis for
this belief.
Look for Early Return.
The officers and men of Battery +
believe that they will be home within
three or four weeks. in spite of the
fact that the men are busy making
wooden structures to stretch their
canvas over and have been building
cinder picket line.
A hard rain set in early last night,
the first for quite while, and today
the whole camp is mass of mud. with
plenty of water standing in the streets.
This is cutie in contrast with previous
camps. for when it rained then few
minutes afterward the ground was
practically dry and mud was unknown.
Lieut. tVeterinarian) Joseph f..
Hodge. Sergt. Richard Henkelman and
Spud Murphy of the battery headed

zona and returned with rabbits and

Act Under New Law.

Since that time the act creating an
officers reserve corps and an enlisted
reserve corps as an adjunct to the
army was passed.
II have been asked by a number of
men in the Interior Department and
other departments if it would be pos
sible to secure the enlistment in this
reserve corps of sufficient number of
men for the Engineer, Signal, Quarter
master, Ordnance and Medical En-
listed Reserve corps" said Maj.
Bomar yesterday, "and take these
men and the men who have been
appointed in the Officers Reserve
Corps and form them into an infantry
command for drill and disciplinary
measures. 1t was asked that this COM
mand be organized in time to have it
participate in the inauguration parade,
and afterward be formed into a class
or classes for correspondence and lee
ture instruction by regular officers.
This would be for the purpose of pre-
pairing the men in it to take the ex
animation for a commission or for pro-
motion in the reserve corps"

ARMY RESERVE TRAINING
SCHOOL PLANNED HERE
Msj. S. E. Bomar of Interior De-
partment Seeks to Qualify Young
Men for Officers Corps.

Formation of an army reserve train
ing school for young men of Washing
ton for the purpose of qualifying them
as officers in the reserve army of the
United States is being planned by Maj.
S. E. Bomar of the Indian Office of the
Interior Department, in conjunction
with a number of workers in that and
other government departments. 1t is
planned to have men between the ages
of eighteen and forty-five yearsj DIN the
school and work in connection with the
officers of the army reserve corps.
Maj. Bomar also hopes to have the
school in such shape that it may be
possible to have it participate in the
inaugural parade.
In the early part of the year 1916 the
idea of organizing voluntary military
command, to be in reality a training
school for prospective officers of any
volunteer force which might be raised
in the future. and to be Independent
of both the regular army and the Ma
tional Guard. was taken up in the In
terror Department. Owing to the fact
however, that some of the men inter-
ested in the movement were in the Ma
tional Guard when it was called into
service on the border. the matter was
not pushed.

The Washington herald., 1917-06-26
Business in WASHINGTON.

Business in Washington is already
beginning to feel the effect OF the
various government activities coinci-
dent with the entry of the United
States into the world war. Usually
at this time of the year the shop-
keepers of this city begin to feel A
slump in business which, because Of
vacations and other reasons, is but
natural.
This year. however. business is not
only holding a level established in the
spring. but in many cases the volume
OF sales are greater than that Of
some Of the cooler months. OF course,
the paramount reason for this condi-
ton lies in the fact that the govern
ment and a number of the public
utility companies are so rushed with
work owing to war preparations, that
thousands of new names have beon
added to Washington .payrolls and
'he salary lists of Washington have
gone up more than 100000.
Naturally this money will be speot
In the District. which accounts for
the abnormal amount of summer buy-
Ing. There is another reason, how
ever. for Increased summer buying
which lies in the fact that the peo-
pie Of Washington have long since
discovered the economy of wearing
summer clothes.
Whereas in other cities the dark
heavy clothes Of spring and fall like
wise do service in the summer. in
Washington at the first signs of hot
weather both men and women doff
their heavier garments and don the
cool, thin clothes that are associated
with the South. This not only serves
to save the heavier clothes from the
wear of hot months. but the summer
clothes are much cheaper than those
of any other season.
Added to the economical advantages
the comfort to be derived from thin
summer clothing more than repays
for its purchase.
