Governors Soon to Get
Orders For Mobilizing
of Second Draft Men

Washington. April 5.-Orders for
the mobilization of the first large
number of men of the second draft
will go out to the Governors of the
states very soon. Fifteen thousand
men of the second draft are now
mobilizing, and the April call about
to 90 out will represent probably
more than the months proportion OF
the 100000 men who it previously
has been announced will be called
during the remaining nine minths of
the year.
To call the 100000 in equal
monthly increments would mobilize
them at about a rate of 9O,0OS "A
month. However, there is no assur-
ance this will be a fixed figure. The
flow of men will be determined by
the needs of the Army in France. As
General Pershing may call for
specially qualified troops. an average
of 10000 a month may be much
exceeded or much decreased.
1t has been announced the men
will be drawn as gradually and in
as small numbers as possible so as
not to dislocate industry and. par
ticularly, agriculture. So far as pos
sible this plan will be followed.
The immediate need of increasing
the American forces in France, how
ever, to- meet the German drive in
the west, is likely to result in calling
the men faster than first supposed.
For that reason the April quota
undoubtedly will exceed it's normal
average. In fact, If the need is press
ing. the entire 100000 might be
called in much less than the nine
months originally planned.

Prayer was a coal miner and yes

Some of the miners. however, fol-

an American flag.
The police, fearing violence, took
Prayer from the crowd and placed

Hall and demanded the man. Mayor

the police force of four was over

He was dragged at the end of a
rope beyond the city limits. AS the
mob prepared to hang him to the
limb of a tree he was asked if he
had anything to say. His answer
was ia drop to his knees and, with
arms crossed, to pray in German for
three minutes. Without another
word he was pulled into the air. The
mob then dispersed.
The police said Prayer, while in
their custody. had stated he was a

RUSSIANS SINK
SHIPS TO AVOID
CAPTURE BY HUNS
Slav Fleet Unable to Keep
Germans From Hango
Harbor
BY associated Ffess

Petrograd. Thursday. April A.
The German warships and several
torpedo boats have landed troops
in Finland and occupied the town of
Eknes, southwest of Helsingfors.
Several Russian warships. including
four submarines, were powerless to
prevent the entry of the Germans
into the harbor of Hango and the
sailors sunk three of the ships in
the harbor to prevent their capture
The commander of the Baltic fleet
has sent a communication to the
German commander concerning the
German aims and protesting against
the entry of German warships as
violation of the Brest-Litovsk peace
treaty which guaranteed the secur-
ity of the Russian fleet.
The arrival of the German fleet off
the Finnish coast threatens safety
of the Russian fleet at Helsingfors

to buzz around over a few Turkish heads. There's
a place for me yet in the old Squadron"
You want to fly again?' l asked, thinking
that one such tumble from the clouds Pat had
had would satisfy most people to leave further
aviation to swallows and eagles.
The grey-blue eyes looked at me searchingly--
almost reproachfully, why not? The world
needs men. The who don't feel it their
duty to go don't seem real to me-they just
glide by like q panorama, picture, not a part
of life at all! mus: 90 back to help. I know
it's the right thing for me to do-and have to
do what think is right no matter how anyone
else feels about il 1t is right for me to fly
again."
How Pat Looks
I can visualize Pat o'Bren strapped into the
aeroplane bird-body that matches the ardent
young soul of him. His hair blazes up with
almost audible crackle. A black crest upsweep-
ing from a tan forehead: below it, gray-blue
eyes, wide apart under sturdy brows that some
woman will sooner or later waste lot of time
trying to brush smooth. purposeful. inquiring
slim nose, whose general outline carries bit
of justification for his bird like propensties
But it is very good nose and I'm not calling it a
beak! sensitive thin-lipped mouth under
little red-brown moustache that camoufages the
of the bullet that felled him. And then
six feet-two of slim boy-man-bird extending down
to earth!
That's how Pat looks-super- -dreadnaught in
the upper part of his face and pleasure yacht
from the lips down! Man and fighter; friend and
lover.
And this is how Pat is-English as to uniform
Irish as to smile, but so honestly American as to
heart that our Allies will know they have bit
of the spirit of "All-America' when they well
come him back.
I have heard rumors-of course I can't believe
them-that some of our boys seeking eXemp-
ton physical grounds. But this is the first
time have discovered lad seeking exemption
from his physical grounds. Pat O'Brien might
nos get by the medical board and int the Amer
ioln Aviation Servce--and that IS why he wears
the uniform of good old England.

Thousands of enthusiastic moving
picture fans almost swamped Charlie
Chaplin and Douglas Fairbanks
when those two favorites arrived
here this afternoon.
AS the movie stars came out of the
station, hundreds pushed and swirled
around the three motors that took
the party to the square. Railroad and
city police were powerleSs to hold
back the crowds which poured over
the station steps, and even on to the
tenders and steps of the motors. A
cheering broke out when the crowd
first caught sight of Doug-not a
photo-Doug, but the real fellow,
spread his face genially and gave the
folks n view of his teeth. Poor Char

moustache, the funny fellow turned
out to be n real nice looking man,
who didn't even walk differently
from other people. Mary Pickford
was unable to brave the crowd and

Because of slight trouble with the
mechanism of the electrical pump
a numb ber of readjustments are being

as the big steam pump is keeping
the water level in the reservoir

The trench which was dug to place
