Orphans Of Tennessee Look
ing For Homes.

There are today in the Tennes-
see Children's Home Society over
thirty attractive, bright. healthy
children ranging in age from
tiny infants up to seven years of
age, who have as bright a pros
pect by nature as any child that
can be found. Their only need
is home training and environ
ments to complete their lives of
usefulness as citizens. We are
using this opportunity to appeal
to the childless homes in Tennes-
see to take one of these little ones
on trial, if it does not meet the
requirements of the home it can
be returned to the Society. One
of the greatest privileges afford
ed the childless home is the priv
ilege of taking one of these little
ones under its care. Remember
our Lord while on earth said,
AS much as We did it unto one
least of these We did it unto me, I"
and again, He that receiveth
one such little one in my name
receiveth me. " These little fel-
lows are looking for a home. and

He has been anxious to re-en-
list and would have probably
been given a commission, except
that he is over 50years of age. =
Nashville Banner.
Note-Sergt. Davidson is the
son of Thomas and Caroline
Davidson, deceased, who were
among the pioneer settlers of
Jackson county, and assisted in
carving the county out of the
vast wilderness. At the time
of their death they lived in the
18th district.
During his boyhoo1 Sergt.
Davidson attended the public
schools of the county, which at
time were very primitive. He
was an apt scholar and always
had perfect lessons, although
never studing. His eyes at this
time were very weak, but later
became strong, and at the time
he entered the army were in per-
feet condition.
Sergt. Davidson is brother
of John H. Davidson, Blooming
ton Springs, R. l, James I.
Davidson, member of the coast
artillary, Ft. Myer, Ala. He
has three sisters, Mrs. James B.

Sergt. Richard N. Davidson
who lives at 1902 State street,
thus giving Nashville the honor
of having one of the worlds
greatest shots of his day, is the
proud possessor of twenty-five
medals. six of solid gold and six
teen of silver and bronze. Sergt.
Davidson was born in Jackson
county. Tennessee, and says he
is "a Tennessean by birth as
well as inclination.
He is a retired sergeant of the
regular army after having serv-
ed the equivalent of thirty years
in the regular army. he is now
proud to be able to serve his ma
tive state in the position as the
assistant to his property and dis
bursting officers of Tennessee at
the state capitol. the adjutant-
generals department.
When Sergt. Davidson first en-
listed in the regular army he
tramped the sands of New Mex
leo and Arizona under that fam
GUS Indian fighter. Gen. Lawton,
in his famous chase of Geronimo,
the Apache chef. He served
three and a half years in the
Philippine Islands and served
with Gen. Shafter on the firing
line in Cuba. He was with this
army from the first day until the
Spanish surrender. Talking of
his experience on the actual fir
ing line. he says that the thought
of getting killed never enters
your head, and the excitement of
battle keep all such thoughts out.
His advice is for the young man
to enter the army as a life career
and says he has found it to be a
mighty fine place.
Sergt. Davidson is known by
the sobriquet of 'Gun-slinging
Davie. and officers of high rank
have visited him at the capitol
and call him by that nickname.
He was the first man to demon
strate the value of the gun sling
in firing in the army.
When Gen. Wood visited this
city ne stepped out of his way to
shake hands with Sergt. David
son and tell him he was pleased
to greet an old army man with
such a record.
One of the proudest mementos
of Sergt. Davidson is a letter
written to the Champion Shot
of the u. S. Army" written by
a Russian lieutenant, requesting
information on rifle shooting,
which was forwarded to him by
the war department.
Sergt. Davidson held a place
of champion rifleman of the u.

Just such reports as these are
continually being heard over the
entire state and bring home to
one the fact that we must not
rest too securely in the belief
that all things are well here in
our fair land, for it is not, and it
behooves every officer of the law
to be duly diligent in the scruti-
ny of every suspicious character.

EMISSARIES OF THE KAISER
BUSY AT WORK.
Appear as Angels Of Light,
But lnwardly are Wolves.

(
come from the middle and east.
ern sections Of the state, it seems
that the emissaries of the kaiser
have been particularly busy in
their operations.
Not long ago two suspicious
characters, posing as ministers
Of the gospel and conducting re-
yival services in Putnam county,
were kept under surveillance by
the authorities of the United
States government for several
weeks, and it was not until their
mail was watched that the Off
GERS finally got a clue upon which
they could effect their arrest.
AT every small postoffice where
they inquired for their mail and
they never did so at the post
office of a large town for fear
Of detection evidently it was
discovered that they were in the
habit of receiving from so to 65
letters a day which, of course,
was a little in excess of the num-
ber usually received by a travel
ing preacher, and on these
grounds they were arrested by
the secret service men, and when
their mail was examined they
were found to be working under
the direction Of and for the in
terest OF the German govern
ment 1t is understood they
were summariIy dealt with by
the authorities and are now serv-
ing a long term behind the bars.
Another case has come to light
from New Middleton and Grant,
about ten miles east of Lebanon,
where a supposedly old and de-
petit man driving two large billy
goats to a little wagon and going
through the country peddling
cheap wares and jewelry aroused
the suspicious of the people with
the result that a secret detective
trailed him for several days and
finally one day suddenly snatch
ed hold of the long gray hair of
the "old man" with the result
that it all came off at once in a
wig that he was wearing and in
stead of being an old man as he
posed as being he was a strong,
robust young German of not over
35. His effects were searched
and in them was found blue draw
ings of practically all the coal
fields Of East Tennessee as well
as data on the location of a num-
Der of the large railroad bridges
In that section and the location
OF several large industries of
Knoxville and other towns Of
East Tennessee. He likewise is
now on the inside looking out
and will be for some years to
come.
From East Tennessee comes
the report Of a supposedly old
blind man, who was being led
through the country and direct
ed from place to place by two
large dogs to which he had reins
attached, but it was noticed that
his and his dogs, ideas Of the
proper direction in which to go
didn't exactly every time coin
eide, although he was supposed
to be stone blind. and he was
seen to be directing and driving
the dogs instead of the dogs lead
ing him. His suspicious actions
are said to have led TO his arrest

I'VE ought as far as prac-
ticable to raise this new ar
my. without creating the
hardships necessarily entail
ed when the head of a fami-
ly is taken, and | hope that
for the most part those ac-
cepted in the first call would
be found to be men who had
not yet assumed such rela-
tions,
THE selective service law
makes the fact of dependents
rather than the fact of mar
riage, the basis for exemp-
ton, and there are undoubt-
edly many cases within the
age limits fixed by law, of
men who are married and
yet whose accumulations or
other economic surroundings
are such that no dependency
of wife exists in fact. Plain
ly, the law does not contem-
plate exemption for this class
of men.
The regulations promul-
gated on June 30, 1917,
should be regarded as con-
trolling in these cases and
the orders issued under that
regulation directing eXemp-
tion boards to establish the
fact of derendents in addi-
ton to the fact of marriage
ought not to be abrogated.
In his message to governors re-
specting new mobilization orders
General Crowder said in part;
THE congestion of traffic that
will be entailed in the early part
Of September by the movement
Of the national guard into train
ing camps makes it inadvisable
to attempt to move any large
percentage of the national army
on September 5. For this reason
the war department has commun
icated the following schedule of
movements of the national army
to the provost marshal general;
Five percent of the quota of each
state beginning September 10,
40 per cent beginning October 3,
and the remaining Is per cent as
soon thereafter as practicable.
"The object Of calling 5 per
cent is to place in the camps e.
nough men to form skeleton or
ganization to assist in receiving
and assimilating the large con-
tingents. For this reason it is
required that local boards send
only white men and so far as
practicable that they send men
with some military experience,
or cooks. In making this selec-
ton order numbers are not con-
trolling. but great care must be
taken not to send men whose or
der of call is so late that they
will not be within the quota of
the boards. The careful selec-
ton of these men will be of great
assistance to the orderly organi-
zation of the national army. and
it is hoped that local boards will
act with this end in view.
In order that it may not be
necessary to make any special
railway arrangements and tC
preAent a congestion of norma
railway traffic, local boards
should be instructed to send ap.
proximately l per cent of their
quotas on each of five successive
days. beginning September 5
1t is thoght that every board il
the country will have available
at least 5 per centof its quota by
September 5, and therefore thai
it will not be necessary for the
acknowledgement of the state t.
call upon any board for more o.
less than 5 per cent"

RULESLESS RIGID FOR EX-
EMPTION OF MARRIED men
Change in Arrangement for
Mobilization Made.


WASHINGTON, Aug. 25-At
the direct suggestion of Presi-
dent Wilson, Provost Marshal
General Crowder telegraphed to
all governors tonight . snpple-
mental explanation of regulations
governing the status Of married
men under the selective service
law. No change in regulation is
made, and the purpose of the
new statement is to clear up mis-
givings which have arisen in
what General Crowder describes
as "a few instances.
In a letter to Secretary Baker,
quoted by General Crowder,
President Wilson states his opin-.
ion that the regulation directing
local boards to establish the
fact of dependents in addition to
the fact of marriage ought not to
be abrogated."
This leaves the regulations as
they are and the supplementary
statement is designed merely to-
make the application of the rules
uniform among all boards,
While the statement regarding
married men was in preparation,
orders were issued changing en-
tirdly the mobilization arrange
ments previously made. Conges-|
ton to rail traffic and the neces-
sity of making better provision
for the reception of the men at
the cantonments dictated the
changes.
Five Per Cent OF First Draft
Go To Camps September 5.
Under new orders; five per
cent of the white men. prefera-
bly, those of military experience.
from each local area. will be
started forward to the camps
September 5. instead of 35 per
cent. They will go in five daily
detachments of equal size and
form skeleton company organiza-
tions and set up a going concern
into which the remainder of the
total quota can be absorbed with
out confusion as they reach the
cantonments.
The next 40 per cent of the
quota will go forward September
10, when the second 80 per cent
originally was scheduled to go; a
second forty per cent will go for
ward October 3 instead of the
third 80 per cent, and the re-
naming Is per cent will be call
ed upon as soon thereafter as
practicable.
Local boards are directed to
disregard order of liability num-
bers to some extent in selecting
the first five per cent. as men Of
experience. such as cooks and
former soldiers are desired at
that time. Warning is given,
however, against getting into
this levy by reason of his exper-
isnce, any man who might not
otherwise have been included in
the first increment of the dis
trict at all.
Ieri OF Message

message sent to the governors.
dealing with the staths of mar
ried men, prepared at confer

they would waive exemption.
