boys like it.
Speaking of the location of the bat
terys camp, Mr.. Evans said 1t was
built on slope such as that of the
public square with the street running
with the slope in order that it may
be drained we'll The situation Is al
most the ideal one at Camp Sheridan
and Mr.. Evans adds that the boys
we're commended by their officer, Col.
Bush, for the excellent shape into
which they placed their camp so soon
after they arrived.
Mr.. Evans was rather unlucky, he
said, In not seeing the boys at drill,
as most of their time was taken up
with voting, but he was shown the
guns which they are using for instruc-
tion and received full explanation as
to the operation of them.
No actual practice by firing Is be-
ing done by the boys as they have no
range.
Following the address, Mr. Evans
was crowded by people who wanted
to hear personally of their sons or
friends who are in the camp, all OF
which Mr.. Evans could answer with a
dehniteness surprising for one who
had spent so short a time with the
boys
A number of people intimated their
hopes of being able to go to Alabama
to see the boys at Christmas time, but
Mr.. Evans says that a number Of the
boys are expecting furloughs at the
holiday season In which to return to
Mt Vernon for few days at least.
The ghost walked" nearly week
before the election officials arrived
and the boys were still jubilant to
think that at last the paymaster had
remembered them with few dollars,
Mr. Evans concluded his address
with an expression of his thought that

Announcement Is made by the War
Department that there will be no serl-
Gus delay in supplying any element of
the army with ordnance equipment,
either small arms or field artillery Of
the small and medium caliber. 1t was
added, however, that it may be some
time before an adequate supply of
heavy field ordnance can be provided
but as the army experts have not as
yet determined just how much artil-
lery of this type should be supplied,
no definite estimate as to the delay IL
available.
AS to small arms, the existing sup
ply of Springfield rifles is being con-
served for the use of Pershings regu-
lars, and the arsenal producing ca
pacity has been expanded so that a
very large proportion Of the troops in
France, II not all, will 60 into battle

center of the camp which, Mr.. Evans
said, resembled a paved street from
an engineering point of view with
sidewalks at each side. The tents are
arranged in rows on each side of this
street with stables and outhouses at
the rear, the entire outlay covering
approximately three acres.
Al present the boys are putting in
from lG to Is hours drill daily, but are
standing up well under the strain and
all are in the best Of spirits, most of
them anxious to go to France and get
into action.

Mr. Evans, there is no more business

Mt Vernon compares very favorably

in this respect.

A noticeable change has taken
place In the attitude of the boys, Mr.,
Evans said. in regard TO the ideal for
which they are now in training, ready
to fight, When the boys enlisted here,
the main object in their act was for
adventure. Now that they are in
training, Mr.. Evans says, their one
thought is to "get at the kaiser" and
fight for the principles on which the
North American republic was founded
In l77G.
The sentiment In Montgomery, the
speaker said, among the natives Is
that they want the Ohio boys to stay
there AZ long as possible, One man
to whom Mr.. Evans was speaking said
that when the Alabama troops were
there they were regular roughnecks"
but tue Ohio boys are more cultured,

Floyd, for the recovery of a gasoline
engine which he claims he rented to
the master of the sfoop Emma B, and
for which the master is said to have
agreed to pay him certain amount
The libellant claims that he has re-

amount due him, but that he has as
often been refused payment, until he
threatened to take it off by force.
Whereupon, the libel recites, the

Angel Boy" She was accompanied
in both readings on the piano.
At the roll call of the states, 139

HISTORIC TUG IN
PORT FOR TOW; Be
HERE SHORT WHILE

A tug which gained considerable
notoriety during the Spanish Ameri-
can war, the "Three Friends" arrived
in port yesterday from Havana, and
is moored at Baylen wharf, where
she is expected to remain for several
days, leaving with the schooner j.
E. DuBignon in tow. The schooner
has been thoroughly repaired at Pen
sacola, and will be ready for deep
sea duty within short Sime.
Readers of Spanish War history
will recall the exploits of the Three
Friends, with Captain Qater gov
ernor) Broward, at the helm, said to
have eluded more Spanish war YES
sells than any craft engaged in the
Cuba Florida business.
Coming into port yesterday, old
timers at once recalled that the craft
of this name had at one time en-
gagged extensively in eluding Spanish
naval vessels, and they could not re-
sist the idea of engaging in some sur
mise as to the purpose of the tugs
visit. 1t was explained, however
that the practically rebuilt schooner
named above, will be towed from here
when the Three Friends leaves.

NJ DAVID WANTS
SPECIAL SCHOOL TAX

Petitions for a special tax district
at McDavid, embracing Bownanville

is expected that little difficulty will
be met in getting the necessary
names. 1t is necessary for only
twenty-five property owners of the
proposed special tax district to sign
the petition before the election can
be called.
The funds raised in the district are
not wanted for building smother
building, but it is understood that
they will be used for increasing the
length of the term, and for purchas
ing better equipment for the schools
already in use.
