18TH INFANTRYMEN ARE
LOST FOLLOWING PARADE

Lost in Washington for several
hours after the parade yesterday, the
entire cd Battalion f-the 26th Infan-
try and Company NJ of the same regi-
ment only succeeded in finding their
trains and starting for Camp Meade
through the assistance of citizens and
of members of the Red Cross Motor
Corps.
Through q mix-up Of orders the
men Swere sent to 17th street and
Pennsylvania avenue southeast to en-
train for Camp Meade. When they
arrived there they learned that the
orders were wrong and that they
would have go to the B. & o. railroad
yards in lexington.
None Of the officers or men knew
the way to the yards, and Maj. Sprig-
gins, commanding the battalion, had
to interrogate pedestrians along the
streets. Finally, hiking at almost
double time, the infantrymen found
the yards and located their trains.
Officers and men of Company M
were carried from the foot of Penn
sylvania avenue southeast to the
lexington yards in Red Cross motors
driven by Mrs. c. D. Carter. Mrs. E.
+. Miller, Miss Jean Robertson. Miss
Roberta Castleman and Coleman
Jones, members of the Red Cross Mo-
tor Corps. The machines had to make
three trips each to carry the tired
doughboys from the place to which
erroneous orders had sent them after
the long parade, to the place where
they should have been sent to find
their trains for Camp Meade.

Of the war. is causing grave concern,
and there is a growing disposition to
treat bigamy as a venial ofense.
Sir Bernard Mallet. the registrar
general, is credited with the state-
ment that English marriage laws af-
ford less security against bigamy
than laws Of almost any other civil
lied state. His department has pre-
pared proposals for their amendment,
but nothing has been done to carry
them into effect A new act of parlia-
ment is necessary. and Sir Bernard
suggests as a preliminary that some
plan be outlined by which accurate
information concerning the principals
in q proposed marriage may be OBJ
tained by the competent authorities
before the ceremony can be performed.
For marriage by license in England
it is required that both parties make
solemn declaration that they know of
no impediment to their union, that
they have resided for fifteen days In
the district. and. IL they ara minors,
the consent of guardian or parents
has been obtained. But no solemn
declaration is required for such ma
terial particulars as name, condition

dence.
