ferred them to another sofa, smiled
at the soldier. and said sweetly,
will you watch my packages for
a few minutes? I'll be right back.
Five minutes later, the soldier
saw her stroIling down the board
walk with a husky national army
nan. He never saw her again.
II he hadn't had to leave to at
tend a class, he might be still
watching her packages.
II eny pigeons are looking for up
to-date homes, they can find them
out at Camp Dodge.
For that pigeon loft, up at the
Three Hundred Thirteenth signal
battalion, is the very latest thing
in zone room and sun parlor"
apartments.
The architect has conceived an
apartment house built high off the
ground, so that the W. rat cannot
annoy the residents.
The first consignment of carrier
pigeons. which will arrive at Camp
Dodge this month, will be housed in
this green building.
They are to be trained under the
direction of Sergeant J. P~Hollen-
beck, A company. Three Hundred
Thirteenth field signal battalion.
The carrier pigeons will be used by
the Camp Dodge men for carrying
messages at the front.
Do you know how to call car
Tier pigeon?
A little buckshot. ratified in tin
pan or a can is the dulcet noise
which brings these birds fiuttering
to their trainer. That sound is
used because it may be continued
more steadily than whistle. To
familiarize the birds with the call,
their trainer allows them to become
hungry. Then he rattles some
stones or buckshot in a tin can, as
he feeds them. The next time they
hear the rafting sound, they know
that to answer it means food, and
they don't hesitate.
Il think we'll have to paint the
building some other color than
green" Major l.. A. Ainsworth said.
If we don't the pigeons will be re-
porting to every 7. NJ. c. A. build
ing in camp. The "Y" buildings
are all painted green.

Of the Fifth cavalry will be chosen,
but this could not be substantiated.
It is thought hardly probable that a
Camp Dodge officer will succeed to
command.
Captain n. B. Cheadle, aide to
General Plummer, returned this
morning from a month leave with
friends in Montana.
Captains H. B. Cheadle and Har-
old Schaub, now aides to General
Plummer, will be unable to accom-
pany the general to F't. Sill in that
capacity.
AT this new post General Plum

The soldiers play three deep"

from q to 80 years old.
No one who ever watched these

It's one of the happiest sights

do.

eight thousand books were Dor
rowed from the main library and

Camp Dodge. Iowa, March Is
Camp Dodge probably will be filled
to its capacity by a troop movement
commencing March %, and an
nounced yesterday by Provost Mar
shall General Crowder.
In the new call no Iowa and
Minnesota troops are included,
these two states having sent the
last increment of their first draft
quotas to camp last month.
How many men will be sent TO
Camp Dodge is not exactly known,
but in all probability it will be in
the neighborhood Of 10000.
The cantonment is to receive an
other delegation of Negro recruits
from Alabama North Dakota
which has not yet completed its
quota under the first draft, will
send about two thousand five hun
bred men. About two thousand
more will come from Illinois, and
it is possible that some may be sent
here from other states.
Some men are likely to be sent
from Camp Dodge to Camp Cody
10 MI the ranks of the national
guard division there, it is under
stood. This division is about two
thousand men short.
The last increment sent to Camp
Dodge failed to fill the units of the
division quite to war strength, and
the white men who report prob
ably will be distributed to every
unit in the cantonment.
The Negro troops at Camp Dodge
are not part of the Eighty-eighth
division, but are assigned to the
Ninety-first division. the local reg
iment being the Three Hundred
Sixty-sixth infantry. II is possible
that another Negro regiment, TO be
part of the newly organized Ninety
second division, a Negro unit, may
be formed here, as the Three Hun
dIed Sixty-sixth is well filled.

MYSTERY MANSION
 AT LAST BEEN SOLD
(NeW York Post)

The Waldo mansion at the southeast corner of Madison avenue and Seven tv-second street. distinctive among New York City homes because it was never occupied, although built twenty two years ago. has been sold.
 Mrs. Gertrude Rhinelander Waldo erected the house. and ever since it has been in the charge of caretakers. Many reasons have been advanced for the nonoccupaney of the dwelling, but the one more generally accepted theory IS that Mrs Waldo. on the death of her husband went to live with her sister on East Seventy second street and forgot she owned the house. As the years rolled by the new home went unat- tended and naturally deteriorated It vas just as the house was receiving the finishing touches and was about ready for decoration and equipment that Mir. Waldos death ended all planning.
 The house. which is said to have cost half million dollars to build. is six story structure. having a bowling alley m it's basement, a large ballroom, an unusual number of bathrooms, and other equipment not ordinarily pro- tided in private homes Mrs. Waldo ost the ownership of this property in lal2, when Joseph P.

OFFICIALS BELIEVE
 M 'CAN|V DID NOT PLOT WITH OTHERS

In the matter the other night of the attempted jail delivery. it is the belief Of officials of the sheriffs office that lval MCCann was not concerned in it 1t all; that he had nothing whatever lo do with the plot. Deputy J. F.. O'Neil says that he did observe Me 'ann with the others who gathered about him and. furthermore the off CTS say that McCann would not have 'ecn likely in all the circumstances O have had anything to do with it if nc had known that there was such blot
 In the first place, in the event the delivery had been successful in his
 ripplcd condition, he could not well nave escaped and then the delivery was attempted the night before the hearing on his motion for admission to bail. MCCann felt sure that the mo- ton would be granted so that he would have had no motive for trying to get away from the jail at that time. while if he had taken part in the attempt and had failed, the motion would certainly have been denied.
 MCCann himself says that he hurried 'o tho aid Of the officer when he was attacked and while some of the pris- 7nCrs were trying to crowd him to the
 ell. The first officer that came to his assistance was Deputy Sheriff Balsz md he is sure that McCann was not taking a part in the attack upon Dep uty O'Neil.

plaintiff for s15o,ooo The bank now

plaintiff for s15O,OOO The bank now has sold it to a firm of builders.
 The big house has been a sort of white elephant on the hands of the bank because no buyer could be found for it. and apartment builders who would have taken 1t long ago did not want it because restrictions prevented use of the property for any purpose other than private residence. As these restrictions were lifted last fall after long litigation the probability is that the Waldo mansion will make way for an apartment building.
 In building the house Mrs Waldo had in mind a French chateau, and she had her architect work along those lines. On the ballroom floor more than two thousand electric lights were set. A large burglar proof safe was built to store her valuables, and another strongboX was provided for silverware, etc.
 Cas.s upon cases df tapestries, mar other costly furnishings purchased abroad. were never unpacked Mrs Waldo became land poor and these or lamentations, such as a European mo- bleman would expect to have in his pal ace, were disposed of from time to time although she could have recOuped her finances about seven years ago, when she declined to accept an offer of s400,- 900 made by a Brooklyn man who de- sired to buy~the house. The new own- CTS are said to have paid price around s225. 900.
