Ky.. April 22. MaJ. Gen Hale, seated in his ottice at dhision headquarters here, can pick up the telephone at any time, if he wishes, and listen to the boom ing of the guns down on the held artillery range. And if he thoose he can listen to the commands of the artillery ofliers as they lay oft the ranges and direct the lire. A simple wire fencing encircling the Jields and pastures of the deserted farms on the range makes this pos sible. Field telephones carried on the backs of enlisted men can be con nected to a fence at any point and in turn connected with a telephone wire which goes through he West Point exchange, which carries tha connection through to Ixjuisville and the cantonment. The field tel ephones accompany the gunners wherever they go, and because they are frequently a lon'- distance from established telephone connections, all Gen. Hale need do now, if he vNishe to be connected with the range, is to ask for connection witn f'.eld artillery range headquarters, which can "plug the general In" on th field circuit. In this manner he can keep in direct touch with what the artillerymen are doing. Lieuts. Frank A. Oshurn and George X. Fuller- aviation section, signal corps, have arrived here from Camp Greene.

A few days agu the 17th in fantry brigade- composed of the 4"th and 4tth regiments, left for an eastern camp, soon to go to France to reinforce the hard-pressed al lies. Their departure reduced the military population of the camp by several thousand. These regiments were regulars who came from Fort Benjamin Harrison last fall to spend the winter in barracks here. The movement fr 2,rG0 men from the 155th depot l.iigade to the ."öth It. fantry at this camp has bee a com pleted. The transfers were made because m.'-ny southern Indiana boys in this regiment had been sent to France. The shift also made room for the T.,000 recruits who will begin reporting next Friday. With their transfer the SHÖth lost it identity as a southern Indiana regi ment, as the new men come mostly from Kentucky and southern Illi nois The regiment went immedi ately into quarantine for two weeks. Conscientious objectors here are being transferred to units of non combatants, such as the quarter master's and medical corps. Many were assigned to the base hospital. This means that they will be re quired to perform services for Fncle Sam's army. Previously the Illinois and Indiara objectors had declined to become soldiers and some to do any work at all. Most of them, however, are willing to as sume non-combatant roles. I lb so m Out in Khaki. The boys at this camp blossomed out in khaki Wednesday. Lie-it. Col.

Experience has shown that most of the sickness stays in the depot brigade where the incoming quotas are quartered. Every pre caution has been taken to detect the symptoms as soon as they de velop, and to prevent t-pread of dis eases, but more stringent methods were deemed advisable. Three foot screens will separate the cots of the men in the barracks. At the mess tables screens will divide the center of the table, so that if a man coughs his breath will not be in haled by a man sitting opposite him. Men will be assigned to reg ular places and a space left be tween each seat. This system is ex pected to check in a large degree the respiratory diseases and measles vThich are transmitted by cough. The recruits will be placed in groups of 50 and except when drill;. ig in the open air, the members of one group will not be allowed to asso ciate with those of another. Should a communicable disease develop in a group, the medical officers can quickly locate t.n.- source of trouble and remedy it. They will know just who has been exposed and those soldiers will he removed to quaran tine barracks. Medical men are leaving nothing undone to safeguard the health of the soldiers. It has been found that that many of the diseases are brought in by selective from all walks of life. Although the coun try toy is considered healthier and stronger than the city chap, he is more susceptible to many commun icable diseases because he is virgin material. Many reared in thickly settled communities have various "children's diseases" when young and thus escape later in life. XeiTiiH's Wanf these ailments Divorces. "Ross, Ah ain't mah wife fo' nigh been livin' wid on to six yea rs," said a black recruit recently to James Rond, secretary at Y. M. C. A. hut 130.

In vetsigation. by the way, lias reveal ed that the percentage of illiteracy among the Negro troops is about nine per cent, which is lower than the rate among the whites.

From the third to the 16th of March inclusive, the last wet months in Indiana the police of the c.ty of Indianapolis arrested for crime 462 men and 77 women, making s. total of 561. Of the men 52 were com mitted for intoxication, and of the women. 11, making a total of 6;i, according to a bulletin issued by the Indiana Anti-Saloon league, which goes on: From the third to the 16th of April, the first 1 i days of the pro hibition law, there were 219 arrests of men by the police of Indianap olis, and 40 women, or a total of 251. Of these 16 men were com mitted for intoxication. and one woman, or a total of 1. . This shows a net decrease in ar rests for all causes during the first 1 I days of the dry period of nearly 34 per cent as compared with the corresponding days of the last wet month in the state of Indiana. The decrease in the number of arrests of females for drunkenness has been over 90 per cent, and of male of nearly 70 per cent. Indianapolls Turnkey Talks. Albert Mathey. who has been on the Indianapolis police force for "0 years, and who has been turnkey for more years than any other member of the police department, says the new dry law has been the cause of the sudden wave of goodness and lack of arrests. "It is safe to say." says Mathey. "that sven out of every 10 persons arrested In the last 14 years got into trouble because of booze. "Family troubles, stealing, gamb ling, righting and other crimes can be traced to liquor. During the last 4 8 hours the number of arrests have been 66 per cent to hZ per cent lower than for any 4S hours (Sat urday to Monday), during the last 14 years. The slate today, without a question, is the smallest I ever saw for an over Sunday slate, since I have been turnkey, or, in fact, since I have been a police officer, which means in Ü0 years. The numherof arrests in th last 4 8 hours sets a new low record." News-Times Quoted. The South Bend News-Times calls attention to the fact that South Rend passed through its first day and evening of a new dry era with out a mishap, and that not a drunk charge appeared on the city court docket on Thursday morning, April 4. The police on the first dry night were on the lookout for persons, but none were intoxicated found. It is said to be so dry up there that the tongues of the brewery wagons are hanging out. A dispatch from Rrazil, date of April 11. says: "With the passing of the saloon, police court business has increased at least 7." per cent. No drunks are noticed on the streets." And the Muncie Star of April 10, speaks in glowing terms of the dry regime, by saying: "Seven business days have now passed since Muncie saloons closed their doors; and dur ing that time not one arrest has been made by the police department for intoxication. This goes to show that Muncie? alleged blind tigers are not operating, as many people thought they would." Columhti i Jubilant. The Columbus Rrepublican. on April S had the following verj in teresting write-up concerning the situation in that city and county: "The new state-wide prohibition law is certainly making good for itself in Columbus, serving the purpose for which it vas enacted, for there has not been an arrest made in the city, or the county either, for that matter, for intoxication s'nee the law became effective a week ago. Xeither lias there been an .irrest made on a charge of blind tigering, bootlegging, or for the violation of the new law in any other way." The Indianapolis Xews recently made this statement: "The first boozeless Saturday night left the police department with hardly enough trade to make it worth while to keep the police station opn." Prohibition is doing for Indiana just what it has done for over a score of other states where it has been tried, and the encouraging feature of prohibition is that the longer such a law exists cn the statute books, and the longer it is successfully enforced, the stronger becomes the sentiment against the return to the old s-aloon system. We believe it will be this way for Indiana. $10 IY)R WALKING. In buying your spring outfit will save 110 by walking two blacks south of the high rent you city dis- trict to Geo. A. Piatt's, cor.
