VOLUNTEER ARMY sHANIs

General Scott, for instance,
was suddenly halted in his triumph
ant progress from Vera Cruz to the
City of Mexico by discovering that the
twelve-month enlistment of seven out
of eleven of his volunteer regiments
had expired. Did they re-enlist? They
did not; and he saw 1000, or more
than one-third of his army, leave him
in the midst of an enemys country,
and had to sit down and wait for re-
endorsements.
The Civil war, of course, is the
classic instance of great American
volunteer armies, and here the short
term enlistment was responsible for
early disaster, the tragedy of the first
Bull Run being due to the hurling OF
raw troops into action in great haste
lest their term of enlistment should
expire before they had fired d gun.
To be sure, later enlistments were for
three years; but before the war was
half over the volunteer system had
failed, and both sides were resorting
to the draft. With this in the North
went the pretty practice of hiring
substitutes. The country was also
treated to tho scandal of bounty Jump
ing. Besides, the number of deser-
tions under the volunteer system was
astounding, being placed on high au-
thority at over half q million out OF
100000 enlistments.-From How
About War;" by Peter Clark Macfar-
lane, in Golfers.

RAILROAD ASKED
TO BUILD SUBWAY
Petition Circulated at Duncan
non For Better Access to
Station

Duncannon, Pa. March 23.-Local
residents are circulating a petition
that will be filed with the Pennsylva-
mia Railroad requesting it to construct
a subway under the tracks at the
Pennsy station.
At the present time passengers are
forced to await the passing of freight
trains or use a subway at Ann street,
two blocks away. No clerks are on
duty at night and the gates crossing
the track are locked. as is also the
station. This compels people living
at the lower end of town to walk four
needless blocks to use the present sub
way. During high water this subway
cannot be used and passengers are
obliged to cross all four tracks.
Supporters of the movement believe
that the construction of u subway will
obviate these inconveniences. This,
together with the fact that such a
large number of Duncannon people
deal and work at Harrisburg and sur
rounding towns, should cause the
Pennsy to accede to the request.

In continuing the case against Ru-

prosecutor, with a view to stopping
further proceedings.
Miller Is accused of hurting a brick
at Miss Edith Miller. striking her
just above the right eye. In testifying
against him, David Smith, the father,
said that he had been prosecuted by
Miller on charge of assault and bat
terry but that the grand jury ignored
the bill yesterday.
Il am glad to hear that the grand
jury ignored the bill" Judge McCar-
rell declared. The defendant can see
now the position ne has placed himself
in. He may yet have to answer for
malicious prosecution.
Gross law suits are wrong. 1t some
times happens that a defendant will
start them, thinking the prosecution
against him may be adjusted. The
courts are making every effort to stop
these cross-suits."
Miller's bail was raised from $500 to
$500, and the case continued.
