American War Heroes Names Given to Camps For New Army WASHINGTON, July 17. Names of American military heroes of past wars, including several Confederate leaders, have been given by the War Department to the thirty-two cantonments in which the national army . and the National Guard will be mobilized for training. 4 ., - In announcing the designations tonight the department revealed that the subject has been given consideration by a board of officers headed by Brig.-Gen. Kuhn. chief of the war college division, and that ' selections were governed by a carefully prepared policy. In each case the name '. selected is that of a man from the section represented by the troops concerned, but not unpopular in the vicinity of the camp. Short names were chosen for convenience, names like Washington and Lincoln were omitted because of the temporary nature of the camps and other names were avoided because they are duplicated by prominent men now living.

Story of Washington's Burial Continued From Page One.
ium about the middle of the coffin Gloria Deo and on the silver plate: General George Washington Departed this life on the 14th December, 1799. Between three and four o'clock the sound of artillery from a vessel in the river, awoke afresh our solemn sorrow the corpse was removed a band of music with, mournful melody melted the soul - into all the tenderness of woe. The procession was formed in the following order, with arms reversed: Cavalry, Infantry, Guard, Music, Clergy. The General's horse with his saddle reversed, and the pall bearers, in the following order: Cols. Sims, Ramsey, Payne, pall bearers. Corpse pall bearers, Cols. Gilpin, Marsteller, Little. Mourners, Masonic brothers, Citizens. Funeral Service Read When the procession had arrived at the bottom of the elevated lawn, on the banks of the Potomac, where the family vaiflt is placed, the cavalry halted, the infantry marched towards the mount and formed their lines the Clergy, the Masonic Brothers, and the Citizens descended to the vault and the funeral service of the church was performed. The firing was repeated from the vessel in the river,, and the sounds echoed from the woods and hills around. Three general discharges by the infantry, the cavalry and eleven pieces of artillery, which lined the banks of the Potomac back of the vault, paid the last tribute to the entombed Commander in Chief of the Armies of the United States and the departed Hero. The sun was now setting. Alas! the son of Glory was set forever. No; the name of Washington, the American President and General will triumph over Death. The unclouded brightness of his Glory will illuminate the future ages! - That Seth Hosier had an unpleasant visitor at his home about this time is shown by the following extract: "Came to the subscriber, a young Heifer, about one year'old last spring, marked with a piece cut off the right ear, a star in her forehead, and white under belly. The owner, by 'paying charges is desired to take her away." Congress Pays Tribute Both the House of Representatives and the Senate paid tribute to the memory of Washington. "The House of Representatives, penetrated with a sense of irreparable loss sustained by the nation, by the death of that great and good man, the illustrious and beloved Washington, wait on you, sir, to express their condolence on this melancholy and distressing event." President Adams made the following talk to the House in answer: "I receive with great respect and affection the condolence of the House of Representatives on the melancholy and afflicting death of our most illustrious and beloved person this country ever produced. I sympathize with you, with the nation and with good men through the world, in this irreparable loss sustained by all." Here is a record of the Senate's feelings: "The Senate of the United States respectfully take leave, sir, to express to you their deep regret for the loss their country has sustained in the n yi FARE SIGNS

Such men as William Jennings Bryan, the peerless one, and Prof. William Lyon Phelps, of Yale university, who is considered an authority on English literature are on the program. Francis Neilson, member of the English parliament also is booked. .- VETERAN RESIGNS OXFORD, O., July 17. John T. Armistead, for thirty-two years superintendent of buildings and grounds at the Western College for Women, has resigned. death of General George Washington. The event so distressing to all our fellow citizens, must be peculiarly heavy to you who have long been associated with him in deeds of patriotism. Permit us, sir, to mingle our tears with yours; on this occasion it is manly to weep. To lose such a man J at such a crisis, is no common calam ity to the world. Our Country mourns her Father. ' The Almighty disposer of human events has taken from us our greatest Benefactor and ornament. It becomes us to submit with reverence to him who "maketh darkness his Pavilion." "With patriotic pride we review the life of our Washington and compare him with those of other countries who have been pre-eminent in fame. Ancient and modern fames are diminished before him. Greatness and guilt have too often been allied, but his fame is whiterlthan it is brilliant. "Majesty of His Virtue.". "The destroyers of nationals stood abashed at the majesty of his. virtue. It reproved the temperance of their ambition and darkened the splendor of victory. The scenes 'closed and we are no longer anxious lest misfortune should sully his Glory, he has travelled on to the end of the Journey,' and carried with him an increasing weight of honour, he has deposited it safely, where misfortune cannot tarnish it where malice cannot blast it. Favored of heaven, he departed without exhibiting the weakness of humanity; magnanimous in death, the darkness of the grave could not obscure his brightness. "Such was the man whom we deplore Thanks to God, his glory is consummated, Washington yet lives upon earth in his spotless example his spirit is in Heaven. "Let his countrymen consecrate the memory of the Heroic General, the patriotic Statesman and the virtuous sage let them teach their children to never forget . that the fruits of his labours, and his example are their inheritance." Here is the speech made the Senate by President AdamsV '' "I receive with the most respectful and affectionate sentiments of the impressive address, the obliging expressions of your regret, for the loss our country has sustained in the death of our most esteemed, beloved and admired citizen. "In the multitude of my thoughts and recollections on this melancholy event, you will permit me only to say that I have known him in the days of adversity, in some of the scenes of deepest and most trying perplexities.

felicity with uniform admiration of his wisdom, moderation and constancy. "Among all our original associates to the memorable League of the Continent in 1774 which first expressed the soverign will of a Free Nation In America he was the only one remaining in the General Government Although with a constitution more enfeebled than his, at an age when he thought it "necessary to prepare for retirement I feel myself alone, bereaved of my. last brother; yet I. derive strong consolation from the unanimous disposition which appears in all ages and classes, to mingle their sorrows with mine, on this common calamity to the world." Relied on Letters. Although war was raging in Europe, the American public weren't getting much war news. Instead of having the story of a large battle on the wire and in this country and in papers throughout the country before the battle is over, letters from abroad told readers of newspapers what was happening those days. This, "the latest foreign" and "received by the British Packet Princess Charlotte, from Falmouth, is a letter from his royal Highness, the Archfluke Charles": "The unfortunate occurrences in Switzerland being already sufficiently known, I shall confine myself at present merely to giving the outline of them, and state the events which have taken place since. On the 25th ult. the Russian corps under the command of Lieut. General Korsakoff, of the Limmar, and the column of Field Marshal Lieut Horze, on the Linth, near Uznach, were defeated by the. enemy. The former corps retreated by way of Eglisan, to the right bank of the Rhine, and the column of'Field Marshal Lieut. Horze, on the 26th by St. Gall into the district of Voralberg. Suwarrow Was at Useren Field Marshal Prince Suwarrow was at Useren and General Aussenberk, at Steig, on the 25th. On the 26th Field Marshal Lieut. LInkin defeated the enemy, and took prisoners two battalions of 1,300 men, with the whole of the staff and other officers, and two stands of colors. ' On the 28th he advanced to Glaros, but not being able to open a communication either to the right or to the left he saw himself under the necessity of withdrawing to the Grison country on the 29th. Field Marshal Suwarrow and the brigade of General Aussenberg having advanced as far as Switz on the 18th arrived at Glarus on the 1st of. October, but not being able to effect a junction with any other troops, Field Marshal Suwarrow was obliged to march to the Grison country. Field Marshal Suwarrow has, however, according to a circular letter, which has been received this morning defeated the enemy near Glarius and taken 1,000 prisoners. At the some time the column of the Imperial Russian General Rosenberg, made 1,000 of tho enemy prisoners near Mutton, and took several pieces of cannon ; the enemy's loss in killed and wounded on this occasion was likewise very considerable."

Local Ukrainian military committees will continue to exercise their functi6ns on the general basis that their activities shall correspond with those of other special military organizations. RUSSIAN ARMIES CONTINUE VIGOROUS GALICIAN DRIVE (By Associated Press) The Russian armies are continuing their vigorous offensive in eastern Galicia and other groups of the empire's vast forces are apparently ready to come into activity at various points along the 800 mile front Everything appears to be running smoothly with the military machine, or at least it seems to be in far more effective shape than even the rosiest forecast indicated. Meanwhile, Russian governmental affairs, which appeared to have been going well for some time past are again ruffled with a cabinet disagreement. Four Ministers Resign. ' . Four ministers, including Finance Minister Shingaroff, have resigned because of objections to the policy decided upon by the other ministers regarding affairs in the Ukraine which, like Finland, has desires for an independent government. The meeting of the council of ministers has been called to solve the crisis and it is hoped the resignations will be withdrawn. Co-incidentally come reports of disorders in Petrograd instigated by the Radical faction of the Social-Democratic party as a demonstration against the government Rival parties of demonstrators appeared . to have fired on each other during a panic brought-about by a few stray shots and a number of persons were killed or wounded. Quiet was soon restored. Revolt Goes On. Notwithstanding the change In the German chancellorship and before any declaration of policy has been made by the new occupant of the post Dr. George Michaelis, the Reichstag revolt against existing conditions appeared to be going on unchecked.
