About Camp Sherman.
Chillicothe. Ohio, the nearest town to Camp Sherman, the new home of Vigo county's 266 selects, hasn't grown much in the last fifty years. Before the cantonment was located a mile and a half from fhe court house the population was about 14,000. It Is probably 16,000 or 17.000 by this timet.
Camp Sherman lies to the northwest the town. Its site was used as a detention camp for British soldiers in 1812, when it was known as Camp Bull. The frame buildings in which the division headquarters is located have historic significance. De Witt Clinton lived in the old frame building now occupied by General Hale when he Visited Chillicothe in 1827* In the civil war days Ohio troops were drilled upon the Camp Fherman grounds, which are located in a valley. Two railroads, the B. &• O. and the Norfolk & Western and the Columbus-Chilli-cothe traction line enter Chillicothe* The B. & O. has a passenger station in camp. There are plenty of Y. M. C. A. and K. of C. buildings and a community house. Paint street is Chillicothe's mam thoroughfare. Plenty of good automobile roads lead from Indiana points to Chillicothe. The favorite route from Terre Haute is via Indianapolis, Richmond and Dayton. Another route is via Rushville, Connersville, Oxford, Hamilton, Lebanon, Blanchester and Hillsboro.
Many of the boys leaving in the morning are being presented with substantial tokens by friends and employers today. Manager Galilean, of the .Grand, presented Pat Heavey with a well filled purse and employes of the ater also remembered him subst&n-

PLANS COMPUTED FOR WAR DRAFT DRAWING DURING RED LIGHT RAID
Second Great lottery Will Be Conducted Along Lines Similar To First Drawing.
WASHINGTON^ June 26.—Drawing of order numbers for the 800,000 men who registered for military service last June 5 will be held, Thursday, in the same committee room of the office building in which the first great national lottery was held Utile mora than a year ago.
Invitations to attend the drawing have been sent to all important government officials and to members of the military committees of both the senate and house. Secretary Baker, blindfolded, will draw the first number from the bowl at 9:30 a. m., and the selection will continue until all the capsules containing the master numbers have been removed. Last year 10,600 numbers were used and the drawing continued for 17 hours. With a maximum of 1,200 men estimated from the districts showing the largest registration on June 6, it is expected that the second lottery will be completed within three hours.
Of Lee* Importance.
Establishment of five classes for the registrants, fixing relative liability for service, will make Thursday's drawing of far less importance even to the men directly concerned than was that of a year ago. The order in which a registrant's number is drawn, Thursday, will determine only his place in the class to which he will i be assigned, whereas, the first drawing was to fix the registrant's place in tho order ol his call for service. Assignment of a registrant to class one is practically certain to entail his early call to colors if he is physically fit, and, if he is given deferred classification, his position in the other classes is of little moment.
Attaches of the provost marshal general's staff probably will be used to draw, the capsules, as was the case last year. As soon as a capsule is selected it will bo handed to another attache, who will open it and read aloud the number It contains.
To Avoid Error#
A most oareful cross checking of the numbers will be made in order that there may be no mistakes. Each number, as it is withdrawn from the bowl, will be written in order upon a large blackboard placed in full view of all in the room. When it has been filled this board will be photographed for a permanent record.
Each local board will be furnished with an official report of the order in which the numbers appeared so that they will be able to make up liability lists for their districts.
Preparation of such lists, however, will be postponed until the new registrants have returned their questionnaires, which are now being distributed. Seven days have been allowed for filling out and returning these documents. cogrmum--th'outgintsstlm mm mm

CITY OFFICERS CAUGHT

and also is in keeping with the original purpose and motive of the administration to clean up the west end and keei/'it closed up. I believe Raider will resign immediately. If he refuses I am sure that the people of the Third ward will ask him to do so. There is no choice for him. I have had dozens of complaints against him £nd have been told many times of his visits to the house in which he was arrested last night. He has been caught and his resignation will probably be forthcoming at the next council meeting."
The matter appeared to have affected Mayor Hunter to a considerable extent. Ethel Smith, at whose place Raider was arrested, Is a notorious police character as are the remainder of the women arrested at her place.,
Jesse Hartman's place/ at 211 North Third street yielded besides the owner two other women, claimed by the police to bo prostitutes. They were Eva Hunter and Minnie Densmore, both 45 years old. When the latter pair were arraigned in City Court Wednesday morning they entered a plea of not guilty through their attorney, Dan Miller, and their cases were continued. The case of the Hartman woman, who is charged with operating a house of ill fame, was also continued.
Some\oid Offenders.
Ella Duke, alleged to operate a house at 214 Cherry street, and one woman, Dawn Delmont, 23 years old, were the next to be taken and both were sent to Jail to be arraigned in City Court Wednesday morning. Both entered pleas of not guilty through their attorney, S. J. Beecher, and their cases were continued. Both are well known west end characters.
The next lot to be taken were taken at First and Eagle streets and the list of namen conta.ines names well scattered over the police records of past years. They were Gertrude Minton, 30 years old May Smith, 26 years old May Finlayson, 33 years old Ruth Lancaster, 23 years old Verna Vest, 38 years old. and Ruby Hall 18 years old. All of this latter aggregation entered pleas of not guilty and their cases capes were continued. Charges are already pending against the Kinlayaon and Vest women In City Court, and one charge is pending against the Finlayson woman in Circuit Court.
Girls Hids U/ider Floor,
The notorious resort of Ethel Brown, at 223 North Third street, was the next place visited by the clean-up squad, and the Brown woman and Jean Bush, 24 years old, were arrested. Through their attorney, D. Miller, both women entered pleas of not guilty this morning and their cases were continued until next Friday. The last time this place was raided the Bush woman was found 'hiding in a cavity beneath the floor in the kitchen of the place. The Brown woman already has two cases pending against her in Circuit Court, which have been appealed from City Court.
Alice Griffith was charged with operating a house of 111 fame at T"irst ana Eagle streets, and Lena Wagner was arrested there, charged with being a prostitute. Through their attorney, Albert Owens, they both entered pleas of not guilty, and their cases were continued.
Edna Wilson and Kit Foster, were picked up on the street^, and both are charged with being prostitutes. They both entered pleas of not guilty, and their cases were continued,
Florence Street, colored, age 28 Mary Reed, colored, Mabel Hawkins, also colored, Anne Davis, colored, Pearl Brown and Nannie Garden, were also arrested at First and Eagle streets in a house alleged to have been kept by Nannie Garden, and all entered pleas of not guilty. Their cases likewise were continued.
After they had completed the west end clean-up, the vice squad, composed of Sergeants Scott, Barry and Patrolmen Schumard, Kennett and Morgan, slipped over on North Ninth street and arrested Blanche Downing and a man giving his name as John Smith. The pair, who were arrested at 422 North Ninth street, were sent to jail charged with adultery. Smith is employed as a bartender in the PYank Jackson place, in West Terre Haute, against which a charge of operating a blind tiper has been made by the grand jury. When arraigned in City Court. Wednesday morning, both entered pleas of not guilty.
After the latter pair had been safely lodged in Jail, the squad raided a soft drink parlor kept by Mrs. Wanda Milllgan, at 218 North Second street, and secured 8 quarts of whiskey and 27 pint bottles of beer.
The Hartman woman long was supposed to be immune from police interference. She was supposed to nave the protection of local politicians and business men. The raid last night indicated that her influence has passed. When arraigned in City Court, this morning, the woman entered a piea ot not guilty and her case was continued. She was charged with violating the state liquor law.
The drunks on the city strpsts were the next to receive attention of the squad, and Ernest Renfrow. James Intrunk, Peter Panzel, Archie Brown, Jack Wilson, John Stevens, George Bell, Frank Booth and Homer Munsey were arrested on charges of intoxication. All were arraigned in City Court, Wednesday morning, and each fined $5 and cost?, with the exception of Brown and Panzel, whose cases were continued.

the Italian forces during their counter ofCeasive are aboat up to a neighborhood of 18,000 men. It is estimated the Austrian losses in their withdrawal across the Piave total more than 200,000.
Many pitiable sights were witnessed by the Italians during their advance over the shell swept battle ground. Frequently they would come upon their own men who had been taken prisoner and abandoned by the Austria/is in their retreat. Many of these were wounded, and virtually all were stripped of their shoes and all their good clothing.
The whole region for miles is cut up by shell holes, and even the bushes had been mown down by the gunfire. Tales of heroism among the Italian troops are extremely numerous. There is the case of Lieut. Tuffolino, Who lost his right hand eight months ago on the Carso, but insisted uopn joining in a machine gun attack upon Capo Sile.
He was wounded in this assault and fell crying "Viva Italia." A balloon observer whose mooring cable was cut by a shell leaped from the basket supported by his parachute, and favored by a breeze from off the sea, descended within the Italian lines. The balloon got into an opposite current and was captured by the Austrians.
