GENERAL WOOD FAVORS
 FORT LOGAN H. ROOTS
Commander of Department of the Southeast Makes Statement That
 Site Is Excellent for Training.

Little Rock, Aug. 5.-A dispatch from Washington to the Democrat says:
 T cannot, for my fife, understand why it is proposed fiat the officers Training camp at Fort Logan H. Roots be done away with said General Leonard Wood to the Arkansas Dem- ocrat's correspondent.
 General Wood was here enroute to Charleston from Gloucester, Mass, where he went to attend meet1nS ol the American radio Loard, of which he is a member
 There is enough room at Fort Logan H. Roots to train ten thousand officers and carry on the other ac- tivities," said the general. Tt IS ideal and desirable in every way, ana why send these Southern boys to the ice-clad country to be trained next fall l wrote the department very frank letter on the subject, but do not know what action will be taken. .
 General Wood expressed the beilef that all enlisted men and o1llcers would eventually have to be tralned in the department of the southeast and on the Pacific slope, as these sec tions alone afforded the only cll- matic conditions that would permit all the year-round training.

OLDEST COLLEGE SPORT,

New York, Aug. 3.-Of all the col lege sports affected by the war none has been so completely eclipsed as in- tercollegiate rowing. This summer, for the first time in years the fa- nous courses on the Hudson and at New London have failed to witness the sweep of the arrow-like shells or echo to the cheers of the thousands of spectators assembled to witness the great aquatic derbies.
 It is interesting to recall. neverthe- less, that today is the sixty-fifth birth day of intercollegiate rowing, which is the oldest of all American college sports. It was on this date in 1852 that the student crews of Yale and Harvard first met in competition or Lake Winnipesaukee. The sport im- mediately became popular and for seevral decades thereafter aquatics continued to reign without rival.
 Rowing is still the most important major sport n>those institutions of learning where adequate facilities ex- ist. Among the most prominent of the colleges and universities that have been active in the sport in rectnt years are Harvard, Yale, Cornell, Prince ton, Pennsylvania, Annapolis. Syra- cuse, Columbia, Wisconsin, Leland Standford. California and Washington.

SHIPPING BOARD WILL
 COMMANDER VESSELS
Boats Now Building Will Be Taken Over By Government, As War Plan
 of General GOethaIs.

Washington, Aug. 3.-Immediate communicating of most of the vessels under construction in shipbuilding plants was decided on today by the shipping board.
 The step is preliminary to the re- qusitioning of American tonnage all ready on the seas and will be taken to speed construction, so that the yards may be cleared for building ships for which the government has let contracts. There are building about 700 ships. totalling about l,3Oo,- 900 tons. Calls and contracts both will be taken over. The final dispo- siton of the foreign craft is to be left to negotiations with the governments concerned.
 The com 2lcted American ships will be retained by the board for opera ton.
 Communicating of ships now build ing was one of the features of the program tf General Goethals. Chair man Dcnman's blocking of this pro- gram was one of the things that led to Mir. Denman's removal by the president.

WANT FEDERAL PROBE
 EAST ST. LOUIS RIOTS
Members of Congress- Learn Many Things Which Are Said to Have
 Caused Race Trouble.

Washington, Aug. 3.-Federal lnVes- tigaton of the race riots i'll East st. Louis, Ill.,, on July by congressloh- al joint committee was urged before the house rules committee today by Representative Rodenburg Of Illinois and Dyer of Missouri, and a delega- tion of negroes.
 "The plain unvarnished truth said MT. Rodenburg, "is that civil govern ment in East St. Louis collapsed and the ferocity, brutality and viciousness of the mob that committed the out ragcs beggars description.
 "The police joined the rioters and helped to shoot negroes I am told the colonel in charge of the militia took no steps to handle the situation. Maurice Joyce, who, I think will - the next federal judge of that district, told me that a negro started toward a group of eight militiamen for protec- tion, that they pointed their bayonets at him and he fled back to the mob which shot and killed him and Joyce himself had narrow escape from be- ing shot,"
 Mr Rodenburg recommended that an investigation be made by federal court through a special grand jury empaneled for the purpose and he especially wanted Judge Landis to conduct it.
 Threats within the last few days to burn the $1O,OOo,O00 plant of the Am erican Aluminium company at East St. Louis was disclosed by MT. Roden- burg,

"Booze" First Meant "Drlnk."

The word "booze" came to us before the fourteenth century. seemingly from the Dutch, in the form "bous" or "bouse." At that time, as noun or verb, 1t meant merely drink and to speak of q gentleman as Housing" his wine was not libel0us or even deroga' tory, writes Robert P. Utter in Har' pers Magazine. Somehow 1t acquired the added suggestion of excess ana bad company, and by the time ot Shakespeare we find 1t in glossaries ol the argot of thieves and gypsies. Tae process may be understood when we thIn1Iof the sinister meaning we often nttach to the simple word 'drlnk
 which might conceivably run the same course if we misuse 1t often enous0

Measures Speed of Clouds.

The Comb nephonscope Is device TOT measuring the speed of clouds. It consists of an upright brass rod about nine feet long, bearing at its upper end a crosspiece to which a number of eqni'distant vertical spikes are at- tacned. The observer turns to the crosspiece until the cloud appears to travel along the line of spikes and notes the time it takes to pass from spike to spike. This forms n hos,s from which he reckons the speed.

Not Hard Trick to Teach,

It appears rather wonderful to see a dog shut the door at a word of com- mand, but it is quite simple trick. It works best with rather large dog. Go to door that swings easily and set 1t about six inches open. Then bal- ance biscuit on the handle and draw the dogs attention to 1t, saying, "Shut the door," He will naturally jump against the door to get the biscuit, and his weight will shut 1t. Then praise him for 1t. By doing this several times a day he will gradually get to associate the action with the words "Shut the door," and will do the trick when told, even though there is nO biscuit in evi. dence.
