marvelously combined all those quail
ties and was a rafting good fellow
into the bargain.
"Most arduous of the A. P. NJ. du-
ties is the regulation of traffic, even
in quiet times the traffic problem is a
poser One road must be reserved
for in-going, another for outgoing
trafic-one road is fit for heavy guns,
another impracticable for anything
but infantry; another leads no.
where; another has been suddenly
made impossible by stray shell. The
conditions are varia Bile enough when
all is quiet on the front In an at
tack or a retreat only marvel of
cool-headed organization can prevent
chaos. The A. P. NJ. must spend
long days and endless nights in the
saddle under fire, supervising his
traffic controllers and improvising
new regulations to meet conditions
that alter every hour. ,
''Next time you read of a success

ment, think of the part played in it
by the officer with the dark blue
band on his sleeve"

SKETCH OF GREAT GENERAL.
Sidelights on Pershing's Character
Revealed By Men With Him.

Ell Paso, Texas.-Americans who
accompanied General Pershing to
Mexico in the various civilian ca
pacities never tire of talking Of the
little sidelights on the character of
the general commanding the Ameri-
can forces in France, as shown to
them while he was in the desert OF
Western chihuahua.
Il saw a better character sketch
of General Pershing than any of the
writers can picture said one cattle
man here. "He squatted in front of
a camp fire at San Geronimo, frying
his hard tack in the bacon grease of
his mess pan, with the wind blowing
sand into his face and food and the
general grinning good naturedly all
the time as one of our cowpuncher
scouts spun a yarn about buffalo
hunt he was on in the Little Cana
dian up in the Panhandle.'
These men tell many incidents OF
General Pershing's stay on the bord-
er and in Mexico as illustrations of
his regard for his men and for the
service.
On an inspection trip from Mani
quipa to Colonia Dublan he saw a
mule driver beating his team because
they would not pull an overloaded
wagon out of a rut. Jumping from
his automobile, General Pershing
lectured the mule driver, forced him
to tighten the load, deftly swung the
team around and drove the wagon
onto the high road.
Again he reprimanded a colonel
who forced his men to march all day
with a 60 pound field pack when
empty motor trucks were passing all
day en- route to the same destination
can American soldier will fight
harder, live on less food and accept
more hardships than any other SOL
dier in the world" General Per
shing said, in commenting upon the
incident. "But he can see no reason
why his pack should not be hauled ii
empty trucks if trucks are passing
Neither do l."
A camp sutler at Colonia Dublar
smuggled in an automobile load o1
bad whiskey. After disposing Of hi:
stock, the man appeared at Genera
Pershing's headquarters to ask fol
a pass back to the border. He got the
pass as free ride as prisoner anc
was forced to dig latrines and repai
roads en- route.
The announcement that Genera
| Pershing had adopted two French
orphans recalled a flood Of tender
memories to friends Of General Per

French Army Still Powerful.

In view of the vague guesses which
have been made from time to time
regarding the size of the French
army, says the New York Medical
Journal, it is interesting to have an
authoritative statement from an Off
cial representative of the French
medical department, Col. Charles U.
Dercle, who is liason officer in the
office of the surgeon general of the
United States army, that about l.
100000 of the French army have
been permanently disabl and a lit
tie more than 100000 killed in
battle.
On January l, 1917, there were,
not including natives of the French
colonies and workmen in war factor
les, 4,725,000 men and officers in the
French army, of whom 100000
are at the front.
The western front measures 755
kilometres in length; of this the Bel
gians hold twenty-five kilometres,
the English 165, and the French 565,
or three-Quarters of the line.
This is wonderful showing for
people who were reported in some
neWspapers to have a year ago been
"bled White.''

TO ENLARGE CAMP JACKSON.
Will Be Doubled in Size, Says Gov.
ernor Manning.

Columbia, July Ex-Governor
Richard l. Manning said tonight that
he has authentic advices from au-
thoritative sources that Camp Jack
son will be practically doubled under
plans for enlargement of the canton
ment which is now the home Of a
big field artillery replacement depot.
It is understood that a tract of land
of not less than 12,500 acres has been
secured for an artillery range and
many new buildings will be begun
shortly. This, it is said, will be one
of the largest artillery ranges in the
United States. Construction work
has been going on within the present
confines of the camp for several
months.

DUTIES OF MILITARY POLICE.
They Are OF Use In Both Peace
and War.

Persons have grown somewhat
familiar with the duties of the NJ. r.
at camp. They know something OF
the importance and the unpleasant
ness of his talk.
They have seen his work and learn
ed something of what it means to the
efficiency of an army. The ohcers
of a company are responsible for the
soldierly bearing of the men while on
duty. While off duty, however, it is
up to the NJ. P's.
\ The civilian population often fails
to realize it's debt to this branch of
the service. The soldiers themselves,
particularly the new ones, at times
regard it as an organization the pur-
pose of which is to take the JOY out OF
life.
Working always in close co-opera-
ton with the civil authorities, it is
the M. P's. duty to protect the SOL
dier against himself and the COM
munity against those few who would
forget that they are soldiers.
So much for his duties at home. At
the front his duties are multiplied by
as much as those of his other COM
rades in arms.
Speaking of this, the Christian
Science Monitor, of London, has the
following to say:
''You picture him as sort OF
glorifed university proctor, wearing
a red-lettered blue band round his
sleeve, and parading the streets in
search of officers who wear purple
socks, or have their pockets unbut-
toned, writes .'Buzzer' on the subject
of the A. P. M. But the A. P. NJ
assistant provost marshal, to give
him his full designation-is a very
much more heavily burdened indi-
vidual when you meet him at the
IL ID u uO uO ID oS3Al 1SSpSAAS
ible, among many other things, for
the seemly behavior of the troops,
but his duties as censor of man
ners, morals and etiquette occupy a
far smaller fraction of his time.
AS chief of the military police OF
his division he unites the functions OF
military governor, commissioner OF
police, prison governor, detective and
traffic superintendent. 1t is laid
down in the book that:
The duties of the M. P. (military
police), under the orders of the A. NJ
P, are to see that the usual police
regulations of the forces are observed
and they are responsible for arrang'
ing the arrest of persons found with
out passes within the lines of plum
dering, marauding, making unlawful

NEW TRIAL FOR SIMS CASE.
Verdict in Favor of the Defendant
Set Aside.

York, S. c., July PA verdict
for the defense, returned by the jury
in the case of Mary Sims against
York county, for damages in the sum
of $4,000 for the lynching of her
husband, was set aside by the pre-
siding judge and a new trial granted
on the ground that the verdict was
contrary to the weight Of the testi-
mony. Sims, who was negro preach
er, was alleged to have been lynch
ed on August %, 1917. Three white
men and two negroes were tried,
charged with the murder OF Sims,
but were acquitted.

shing on the border, for it was while
he was in command here that his
wife and two children were burned
to death at the Preside in San Fran
cisco. General Pershing's hair, a
chesnut brown, slowly turned to gray
after his loss and he could be seen
frequently riding on the mesa beyond
Fort Bliss alone with his great grief.

prises a multitude of unforeseen and
unforeseenable problems which con-
front the officer who administers that
anomalous district, The Back-of-the
Front His powers extend over for
eign region peopled for the most part
by noted military tribes. He has
dealings with the natives of the coun-
try as we'll as with his own country
men in khaki. 1t follows that he
must be a man of commanding per-
sonality and infinite tact. He is the
strong, silent man of fiction in real
life. He carries with him a certain
air of aloofness; he feels himself a
man apart from his fellows. For it is
his lot to consort with brother OIL
GERS when he might at any time be
called upon to report for some trifling
offense against military discipline. He
is a man it is as we'll to keep on the
right side of.
"The ideal A. P. NJ, has the gift OF
unobstructive ubiquity. A certain gov
ernment official, attached to G. H. O.,
once met an A. P. NJ. at lunch. It's
a strange thing he remarked, that
though have been here three weeks
I have never once been stopped by
your police NO. replied the A. P
NJ. quietly. They reported you two
minutes after your arrival, we tele-
phoned G. H. @. and found out all
about you and they received instruc-
tions accordingly
"It is field of operations like the
Balkans that the quality of the A. F.
NJ. most severely tested. In a
friendly country he knows how he
stands in regard to the native, in an
enemy country his position is equally
clear, but in treacherous country
which is a mixture of both, his legaI
status is very delicate and his Difficult
ties immeasurable.
sOn the Macedonian front in for
mer days some of the natives were
pro-Entente, some were pro-Bulgar
some were anti-Venizelist and some
were merely brigands. 1t was the A
P. NJ. who had to distinguish frieno
from spy, to nose out intrigue and
treachery, and to unearth secret
stores which were being boarded fol

enemySsines. It>heeded the wisdom
of Soy mon, the subtlety of Ulys

So Sudden.

''N1iss Birdie, do you know that
you have robbed me of my peace OF
mind-that on your account cannot
sleep?" said young Spooner to Miss
McGinnis, Spooner being a lodger
with the McGinnis family.
''This is so sudden; however, you
had better speak to my mother, Mr..

simpering.

it was you who banged that piano in

Chance trembles and casts Its vote
Genie meenie-down goes the shilling
--he has bought the book. Tonight he
will spread It beneath his candle. Feet
may beat snare Of pleasure on the
pavement, glad cries may pipe across
the darkness. q fiddle may scratch Its
invitation-all the rumbling notes Of
midnight traffic will tap In vain their
summons upon his window.
