CONSCRIPTION UNKNOWN

ENGLAND, Note In his second article on the British army, H. H. Hadlow, who saw service in the British army during the Boer war, describes the territorial army. M. Hadlow's article in yesterday's Palladium was widely read. Conscription, or compulsory service in the army or navy, which Is general on the continent of Europe, is not in operation in Great Britain. Its need has been advocated for years, especial-MC-!6. "" "j '"Y"1UC,DU.P ,a lt ,CV large. Under its auspices thousands of rifle clubs have been formed with the object of making every male adult over sixteen years of age an expert rifle shot. These men with a little drilling would be turned into a useful home defense force. For home defense there is also a large territorial army. This army is composed of ablebodied men who are required to pass a severe medical examination and who voluntarily offer their services for three years' training while still remaining civilians. They drill two ot three evenings a week under regular army instructors, and undergo field training on Saturdays and legal holidays. For a period of two weeks each year they are mobilized as a part of the standing army and go into camp to operate with highly trained and seasoned soldiers. This is compulsory, and men who fail to attend are arrett ed and fined. The men are trained under war conditions, and forces of fifty or sixty thousand men a side are pitted against each other in miniature warfare. At the end of three years' service they are at liberty to quit the service at any time, but may continue to serve, being required to put in seven drills a year and attend the annual training. These men are paid nothing for their service except the two weeks when they are mobilized, when they receive the ordinary soldiers' pay of about 28 cents a day for privates, up to

about $1 per day for the highest non- retirement, isugiu i '- commissioned rank. These territori- and number of good conduct badges, als are made up of infantry, cavalry, He passes out of the reserve but ma artillerv. medical corns. engineers. Jm voluntarily the National Guard.

Its motto is "Defense, Not Defiance." Although organized for compulsory home service, these men would be allowed to volunteer for service abroad in time of grave national danger, and many thousands served in South Africa during the Boer war with honor and distinction. It is considered an honor to serve as an officer in this force, and many of Britain's titled nobility hold commissions and undergo a rigorous training. Another voluntary organization Is the National Guard composed of ablebodied men up to the age of 55 years ECONOMY The Stanley family reunion will be held at Glen Miller, Richmond Saturday.

who have served in the army and passed out of the reserve, and also ex-terrl-torials who have seen active service. In time of war they would be mobilized under the same conditions as the territorials. They are paid no retaining allowance of any kind. Next in order comes the big army which has been trained for three years with a further period of reserve afterwards," under morfi strinsrent conditions. Thev have attended an annual training of three months and have been trained 1 exactly the same as the soldiers in the standing army. Receive Army Pay. They receive ordinary army pay while in training and a small retainer the rest of the year. They constitute separate battalions of the different regular infantry regiments and acquire their training with the regular battalion. They can be called upog for foreign service exactly the same as the regular battalion. An infantry regiment under peace conditions consists of eight companies each of seventy-five men, about six hundred in all. In time of war the reservists increase this number to about twelve hundred. The second battalion would number a little less, and third and sometimes fourth battalions would be composed of the territorials. Each member of the territorials keeps his uniform and complete equipment, including arms, at his own house, and is ready for the call to mobilize at short notice. In the standing army men are accepted between the ages of 17 and 25. They sign for three or seven years with the colors, and nine or five years, respectively, has to be spent in the reserves, making twelve years compulsory service in all. The soldier is privileged to extend his service with the colors from three to seven years, then a further five years; and if still in good health and of good character, for a further nine years, making twenty-one years' service. He is then retired on a pension for life, which, however, he can lose if convicted at any time of a penitentiary offense. Receives Pay Quarterly. This pension is paid quarterly in advance, and ranges from twenty cents a day up, according to rank at date of I . A. 1L Ai Jrt !
