under guard by the quarteHSnaster of
the ship soon, after he had bdlgded tho
vessel, and was not allowed to appear
on deck during the voyage.
Passengers arriving on the steamship
brought a story to the effect that on
March Is, two weeks after the Cyclops
left Caribbean port, and long before
the collier was reported missing an ad-
vertisement appeared in a Portuguese
newspaper at Rio de Janeiro announcing
that a requiem mass would be cele-
brated for Alfred l. Moreau Colts

Rio de Janeiro. 'lost when the Cyclops
was sunk at sea-
It was not until April IS that the
Navy Department announced that the
collier was missing. The advertise
mont, appearing nearly a month before
the official announcement, was signed
by several prominent men in Rio de
Janeiro, who later are said to have
disclaimed responsibility for its ap-
pearance.

sma1 Undertaking This Year.

The registration Of the twenty-one-
year-old men will be q small undertake
ing as compared with the great regis
tratfon of last June. Full advantage
will be taken of the splendid organise
tion Of local draft boards. both in
Washington and throughout the nation,
in the registration.
In Washington, for instance, It is
probable that the registration VIII be
made in schoolhouses throughout the
city. in the same fegistratip0 dis<ricts
as were utilized last June, and, af neceS.
sary. the same clerical forces will be
used: as they are practically intact and
can be mobilized at q moments notice.
While plans for the registration have
not been completed by Acting Adjt. Gen,
Donovan for the District, It is probable
that not more than three schoolhouses
VIII be used in each Of the local reRistra-
tion districts.
Plans not yet fully completed by the
ONCE OF the provost marshal general con.
template that heads Of local boards may
act as chief registrars. Going on this
supposition, local draft officials believe
that by using not more than three schools
as registration places for each local d.
vision. each Of the three chairnen Of a
board would be given opportunity to act
as chief registrar.

AS to the game. the Mackmen defeat
ed the representative Camp Meade nine,
to /. in contest which was featured
by a number of spectacular plays that
thrilled the 10000 soldiers and their
friends at this cantonment. The con-
test was the first the soldiers have en-
gagged in, as they were gathered and
drilled for only one week before the
game.
The battery for the Meade men was
Monk" Frazer, Company c. District
Battalion. and Sergt. Socks" Seibo1d
of the 311th Field Artillery. Both were
former players with the opposing team.
and put up fine game. Although Sci
bold was touched up for sixteen hits
by the Mackmen. they were mostly in
field ones and with little better field
ing on the part of the soldiers would
not have gotten by for such. Watson
yielded eight hits to the soldiers, but
many of these were crimped by the
circuslike fielding of Dugan and
Davidson for the Athletics.
To Play Washington Next Sunday.
Next Sunday the Meade team will
cross bats with Clark Griffith's Wash
