There aro few careers which in in tensity of Interest cnn equal that of Colonel Mosby. MosbyV command, or "Mosby's Men," as they came to bo known, wcro tho dre?d of all the Fed eral forces In northern Virginia and Maryland during tho civil war. His cavalry command played havoc with the opposing lines. Many were tlie federal cnvnlry outposts and sup ply trains which this band of fearless lien captured. Hairbreadth escapes were' an com. mon to them an the incidents o* ordi nary Ufo today. Many were the times when Mosby and bis men saw hope of life vanish, for they knew no quar* iSr WCT3??S hv giren -be""5. But in aplto of all federal efforts tho great leader never was taken. In his books, "Mosby'a War Reminiscences" and' "Stuarts Cavalry Campaign," much ls told ot warfare in Virginia. In recent yenrs Colonel Mosby be came reticent.

Few pf'the 30,000 Men Needed to Bring Army Up to Full Strength Have Been Accepted - Regulation* Enforoed to the Letter by Officer* In Charge. Unless more vigorous enlistment measures succeed in getting the men required under the new army bill there is likely to be a shakeup in the re cruiting branch of the service. Some army officers' aro inclined to complain that too ?T=?{??y spplicn.nts fe the winy oro rejected because of strict technical Interpretation of tho requirements. Responsibility for recruiting the army up to service requirements under the now army bill rests with Adjutant General H. P. McCain. Obleera of tho army generoI staff aro determined that tho necessary improvement in recruit ing shall be circe ic il, and if Adjutant General McCain cannot produce the v'e nulta efforts will bo made to find a suc cessor who can. General McCain la aware of the re sponrlbllltiy resting on bim. He test! fled before the house military affair* committee last January that under the voluntary system of enlistment tho maximum number of men that can be recruited* using all proper methods, in noy one year would not exceed 50,000. This figuro representa only a very slight addition to tho army, as the war department has been required annually io recruit between 80,000 and 40.000 men to AU vacancies duo to expiration of enlistments and other causes. The adjutant general ls not prepared to say, in face of tho country's new interest in the'regular army strength, that 60)000 is tho maximum number that can be enlisted in a year. Ho ls prepared to assume responsibility for getting the men required. "It'a up to mo to get-tho men," bo ?said recently, .in thio connection? "and I'm going to .get them.** , . JWany" Rejections. Many army' officers doubt if the war department can,- without any provi sion for compulsory service, get the additional man required under the'bill for.175,000 fighting naen except by de cidedly moro vigorous , and expedient '.recruiting, measured and possibly some chango iiTthe \va>,?ppllcanta are test? cd tinder the present recruiting- aland nrda. Of tho 103,182 applicants last year the war department rejected 123,731* making the enlistment total about 45,000. General McCain saya ; ?hat tho great number of rejection a is duo to the nigh standard ot the army requirement. . However, some criticism ls beard to the effect that the standards aro too rigidly enforced, and much more to the effect that the measures of recruiting ! sro not the best possible. Applicants for first enlistment must be "between tbs" ages of ?lgbfceen and thirty-five years, of good character and .temperate habits, ablebodied, free from disease, and must be nido to speak, read and write the English, language." lt is pointed out thnt iherso general require ment a are subject to pretty broad In terpretation and that possibly some candidates.for tho army have been re quired to read aad write better thoa was actually necessary for eve? a first class soldier. It is known, of course, that some , congress' lenders have not been averse to seeing'.thia'.sisa of the army kept down. and tbs validity of many rejections has been no cause bf anxiety to them. lu view cf tho adoptlou.of tho.con ference report on the army reorgani zation lilli nevi- methods of enlistment are under consideration.
