EVERY U. S. SOLDIER CERTAIN OF VICTORY

Greenest Trooper and Seasoned .Qjftrer Have Result In Europe 4 Figured Out Alike."

AMERICAN TRAINING CAMP IN -FRANCE. July 20.—(By The Associated Press)—-"Whenever you write home (.whether in a private letter or to any '.newspaper tell them we are doing 'finely and that no army ever had a finer spirit or was more confident of winning." "I have handled troops tor many ears and under varied conditions but have never had a finer set of men, 'never a more enthusiastic lot than now. It has been a revelation to me to S' see the splendid spirit that has prevailed since we landed and It augurs well Scr the part America is to play in the war that her troops take hold with ,iv vim that is going to prove Irresistible,"

The first quotation is from ft comparatively green trooper, the second from a seasoned officer. Both were 0 made independently to The Associated

Press within a few moment* of each pother yesterday. Both illustrate the .wonderful esprit de corps prevailing throughout the first American conting^nt—an esprit de corps which has evoked the enthusiastic approval of the I French.

i v-.

Confidence Everywhere.

The American soldier as one mingles with one does not underestimate the seriousness and earnestness of the task before them but from the newest rooky to the oldest sergeant they are going through their dally drill, performing cheir daily work with a dash, vim and cheerfulness and willingness that has come as genuine to the correspondent who spent the first two years of the uar 09 the German Bide and with ample opportunity to witness the perfunctory qualities of the German spirit.

Thus far there has not been one single soldier who boastfully undertakes to underestimate his opponent. but likewise no one has made his appearance who Is not supremely hopeful and confident in the final outcome. The fine spirit prevailing is evident on every side. The discipline is excellent and there is an absolute lack of complaint. The troops are taking- their traininjr with cheerfulness and are tadapting themselves to the novelty of 1 billeting and living under unprecedented conditions necessarily Imposed fby living in a stranger's house. ,t The troops are engaged in work alt'most entirely strange to them, yet the ii-offlcers say they have made entirely unexpected progress, which not only la a good augury for the# balance of the Ibrmy but is due largely to the eneg «thusiasm pervading each company and regiment.

Wftn Who Failed to Get Commissions to Organize Company. ftOUTH BEND, Ind., July 20.—The ^nucleus of the fifth militia company from South Bend was organized here last night when nine men who have applied for admission to the officers' {reserve training camp "signed up" for he new unit.

Lad

and Lassie to Travel Until Old Enough to Marry. Youth and innocence—long since divorced in the minds of city denizens— are the guests of Chicago prisoners In the South Clark street police station. There they are held behind the grimy walls, temporarily baffled in an attempt to prove trtie that love nughs at obstinate parents as well as locksmiths.

Youth is Gerald Bnrdan, sged fifteen, of Pottstown, Pa., attired In his first long trousers.

Innocence is Dorothea Field, aged sixteen, in a gingham gown of the best Pottstown designing.

They arrived in Chicago recently, and went to the New Marion hotel where they registered as brother and lister, occupying separate rooms. They were arrested by detectives at the request of Pottstown police.

Dorothea, who has a wealth of dark hair framing her piquant face, told her story to reporters. "We knew we were too younj to be married. We planned to travel together until we were old enough and then marry and go back home and surprise Pottstown. We 'were going to Kansas City and get any kind of work in a hotel that we could get for whlle and lafer go to California, where I have some relatives. Gerald and I were in Our first year in high school in Pottstown. My father, G.. Field, Is superintendent of the Hill school there and Gerald's father, Geo. Burdan, is an ice cream salesman. "I can't stand this old station house here and I hope they let me out of here soon. I haven't had much to eat since yesterday morning. They wanted me to eat here, but I didn't like the looks of the food. The ice cream they gave me was fine but nothing like you oret in Pottstown."—Chicago Dispatch to Pittsburgh-Gazette-Times.

HOW DEWEY GOT COAL.

Tramp Ships Bound for Manila Were Sternly Warned Away. Poultney Bigelow*a story of the British admiral on the Chinese coast, who supplied United States warships with much needed coal when none could be bought there from the usual dealers provided yesterday one of those interesting "sidelights on history" which so often fail to get into the works of the more solemn historians.

Another like tale from the far east will be told' in detail some day, and that it has been delayed so long is due to the possibility of its making trouble or embarrassment for various officials civil and naval, who are still alive. It is already safe enough to say, however, that it relates to the provisioning and supplying of Admiral Dewey's fleet while- it lay In Manila bay.

This would hate been *a somewhat difficult matter If all the rules and regulations pertaining to neutrality had been strictly observed by all the nations on terms of technical friendship with Spain, at that time. It so happened, however, that therei kept coming from the mainland into the big bay one heavily laden tramp steamer after another. Their commanders showed a strange ignorance of what was going on, and a deep surprise when sternly informed by one or another American ship that they could not put their cargoes ashore. Then they would be as sternly ordered to anchor well behind the line of our fleet, and—-well a few days later some mysterious negligence would allow them to slip away. But always on going the tramps stood much higher out of the water than on arrival, and the' queer thing was that their captains seemed to learn nothing by experience but returned again and again, to suffer the same kind of censure and detention. It almost looked as if they invited it and found it profitable.— New York Times. v

the big glass bowl at Washington began at 8:49 o'clock central time, or 9:49 o'clock eastern time. Liability for service waa determined by the order in which the numbers were called, the first number called representing the man who will stand at the head of the list in both districts of the city and in the county.

The first number drawn was 258. This called in Division 1, south part of Terre Haute, for John D- O'Malley, 524 South Fifth street In Division 2 the number was that of Nicholas J. Kasper, 827 North Eleventh street. Paul Charles Ehret, Twenty-fifth street and Lafayette avenue, held No. 258 for the county outside of the city-

Not All to Go.

The fact that a man's number has been drawn does not necessarily mean that he will be called for service, officials point out. The governors of the various states have been instructed to fix the quota expected from each registration, based on the population estimate given the state by the national officials. The quotas for Indiana have not yet been fixed, but on the population basis it has been estimated by local exemption boards tha* approximately 410 men would be drafted from the city, and another one hundred from the county outside of the city.

Provost Marshal General Crowder has announced that local boards will be instructed to call 200 per cent of their quota at the first call to provide for probable exemptions. That means that 1,374,000 men will be notified to appear for examination within the next few days. If more are necessary they will be called for as needed by the local boards in the order provided for In the drawing.

In some districts the 100 per cent allowance for exemption may be too large, and in others too small, but the local boards will be instructed in every case to continue calling for men until the district quota is filled.

If the quota for any division Is filled before the end of the list is reached.
