RECRUITING DUE TO JUMP.
Officials Believe $4,000 Men Will Join
Regular Army at Once

WASHINGTON, May -. 49, War de-
partmcnt officials believe that recruit
ing for the regular army will go for
ward with leaps and bounds this week
With the universal service bin signed
by President Wilson and with Colonel
Roosevelt releasing his volunteers, the
believe that at least $4,000 men
will join the regular army before sat
urdav night. The Roosevelt army would
not have included men OF draft age.
but would have taken many within
the regular army age limits, which have
been raised from l : to 80 TO from s
TO 40. They will he disappointed if the
daily average fer the week falls below
t 1000. The department has made all the
necessary plans to take care of $4,000
men. That number, added to the men
who have enlisted since April /, will
bring the number of recruits to consid-
cradle over the 100000 mark. The num-
her of men needed to increase the army
to war strength is lS3,S9S. II is expect
Jed that a large number of the recruits
will come from the Eastern and North
eastern states. New England, which
has been slow in recruiting, is expected
to make a good showing. Recruiting in
the country as Il whole fell off - per

WOMEN DOING MEMS WORK.

One Of the most striking results Of
the great war in Europe is the extent
to which women are doing the work
of men. Travellers to England and
France report that practically every
|able-bodied man is in uniform aud
women by the thousands are engaged
in doing men S work-acting as con
dnctors and drivers on the ears and
doing all sorts of heavy work besides.
This shows unexpected possibilities
Ill what has been mistakenly called the
weaker sex. Women are subject to
ailments which men do not have, and
when so ailing become weak, helpless
sufferers. But a remedy has been
found. For forty years, Lydia f. Pink

making such women well and strong

more for their coal than the bare cost
of production; that the mining of btu,
minous coal during that period has been
a most Improbable industry and that
this is their chance to reeoup them
selves for the losses OF several years.
Accordingly, they are demanding prices
at the mine today which run from 80
per cent to several hundred per cent
over the cost Of their output,
As a result Of this policy much OF
the bitumnous coal output has been
auctioned oil to the highest bidder. This
has resulted in great profits to certain
operators and special hardships to mu-
nicipal public utilities. hospitals, and
other public and private charitable IN
situations, and to domestic consumers,
especially in the West and South, where
relatively little anthracite is used.

Quakers fought the naughty Muskegs
viciously but were defeated. 6 to 5, in
a game full OF thrills. free hitting and
sparkling fielding. The crowd went
Eome disappointed over the home
clubs defeat but we'll satisfied with
the exhibition offered them.
With the score six to one against
them the Quakers came to bat with
blood in their eyes in the last half of
the eighth and made determined
effort to tie up the count and lacked
only one run of doing so when the
third out was registered. It was an
exhibition of gameness that caused
the fans to howl with enthusiasm.
Start Another Rally.
Richmond started another rally in
the last of the ninth and 1t became so
threatening that Manager Hamilton
yanked the battered Drohan off the
mound and substituted q southpaw,
Allen. That ended the rally, for the
Quakers have not been able to do
business with left handed slants all
season.
Richmond really deserved to win by
a score OF 5 to 4. Two lucky breaks
for Jimmy Hamilton in the third were
good for two Muskeg runs. Jimmy
reached first and scored run on a
6unt that started foul and then rolled
safe. A minute later he was caught
apping off first but Umpire DAILY,
missing the play, called him safe.
Hamilton then scored on a hit. DAILY

decisions all went against the Quakers
yesterday.

Coveleskie started the home rally
il the eighth with a single. Gygli pop
ped out but Crouch singled, sending
Coveleskie to third. Evers beat out
short single, filling the bases. Rapp
then shot hot one to right, Coveles-
kie and Crouch scoring, and Evers
trotting home when the throw into the
plate bounced over Roth's head and
rolled into the Muskegon dugout
Rapp pulled up at third and scored
when Brubaker booted Kelly's hard
drive. The inning closed when Aims

A triple by Crouch and double by
Evers netted the Quakers one run in
