GIBBES NOMINATED. Is Recommended by Audubon Society for Chief Game Warden. Columbia. July is.?Wade Hampton Gibbes. formerly mayor of Columbia, was this afternoon nominated by the Audubon society of South Carolina to serve as chief game warden of the State. Mr. Gibbes's name will be reported to Governor Manning as the recommendation of the society. The faction of the society which has steadfastly voted for Al * 3 * woe nnt rpnrp lrtJU A. X. uumiucwu ~ - sented at the mefeting, its members evidently taking the position of Dr. E. C. L. Adams, president, that no properly authorized call for the meeting had been issued. During Dr. Adams's absence from Columbia Governor Manning requested Dr. C. H. Barron, vice president, to issue the call for the meeting in order that a nomination might be made. The call was made by Dr. Bar ron, but the roll o: members was locked in Dr. Adams's safe, it was stated, and the president of the society took the position that no meeting would be legal unless all of the members were properly notified as it was.claimed" the by-laws provided. At today's meeting there were present in person fiffteen members of the society and proxies of 321 others were presented. This combined vote of 336 was cast for Mr. Gibbes. no Other nomination being made. W. A. Clark presided in the absence of Dr. Barron and Edmund Heyward acted as secretary of the meet ing. Albert R. Heyward, of Columbia, was nominated by the society to Governor Mannfag for reappointment as treasurer and was also elected secretary. Mr. Heyward was instructed to call on Dr. Adams for funds of the society now in his keeping. The name of Mr. Gibbes will likelv be transmitted to Governor Mar ning as soon as he returns from a trip to the North. Back to the Courts Again. Columbia, July 19.?The recommendation fcw the Audubon society Wednesday of Wade Hampton Gibbes for appointment as chief game warden of the State has not by any means disposed of the present unsettled conditions which surround that office. If Governor Manning should appoint Mr. Gibbes, as it is generally believed he will do, the validity of the apx pointment will again be tested in the courts, according to statements made by Dr. E. C. L. Adams, president of the society, and Alfred A. Richardpon, former game warden and at V present custodian of the property of the office. v Both Mr. Richardson and.Dr. Ad. ams refused to recognize the legality of Wednesday's proceedings, taking the position that the meeting had not been called in the manner prescribed by the by-laws^ef the society. Dr. Adams today notified the governor's of\fice that the appointment, if made, would be contested. Mr. Richardson stated after Wed nesday's meeting that he would not surrender the property of the game warden's office to Mr. Gibbes, if he were appointed, until directed to do to do so by the courts. He, too, took the position that the meeting had not been legally called and that any action taken by such a gathering would be invalid. That the matter will be again taken into the courts and that South Carolina game and fish laws will not \ " " l)e enforced for many weeks seems apparent. Governor Manning is out of the city. His office has not yet been of/ ficially advised as to the recommendation of Mr. Gibbes. Dir. Adams's /letter to Governor Manning follows: "At a meeting of a small group of persons, who styled themselves the Audubon society of South Carolina, held at the Jefferson hotel, Columbia, S. C., on the 18th inst., I am informed that the name of Wade Hampton Gibbes was recommended for the position of chief game warden of South Carolina, and that it was ordered that his name be trans\ mitted to you for appointment as such. "TViio ic nrrfifv von that .Wade Hampton Gibbes is not the nominee of the Audubon society of South Carolina for the position of chief game warden and that the group who met at the Jefferson hotel on the 18th inst. are not the representatives nor do they constitute the Audubon society of South Carolina. "I appeared at this meeting as president of the Audubon society ol South Carolina for the purpose of protesting, and did protest, against the legality of its proceedings. The bylaws of the society reotiire ten days notice, by mail, to be given each member of the society by the secretary before a speeial meeting can be called, and U19 by-laws further designate that a special meeting- may be called only by the president or three members of the executive committee "When you returned my name on the ground that the method of recommendation, to wit: The recommendaS DOING ONE'S DUTY. / Inspiring Extract From a French Sol/ dier's Diary. Young Antoine Boisson, born of a family of soldier^, at Lure, in one of those little towns of eastern France so rich in military virtues, left his lycee to enlist, at the outbreak of war, writes Maurice Barries, in the July Atlantic. While an aspirant in the forty-seventh regiment of artil-j lery, he died for France at eighteen. In his diary?the date is January 1,! 1916?he wrote: "Today begins the new year. It will be the year or victory, w nat will it mean for me? The greatest year of my life surely, if God grants that I survive. I am going to fight; i I am going to take part in war?in real war, in a holy war which, for seventeen months, has numbered so | many victims?friends, comrades, fellow-countrymen. Whatever destiny may be awaiting me, I shall waste no time thinking about the future. I confess I said to myself this morning, I'What will be left of me when still ! another year has taken the place of: j this one?' But my conscience quickly replied, 'Do your duty, your whole duty. That is the only thought worthy of a volunteer soldier like your- j self.' Let soul and heart obliterate the animal instinct and the revolt of one's baser nature. A man must hold up to himself some great dream to follow, some goal to reach. And what is this war for, if not to train character? It has developed within me feelings I am proud of, though I am at a loss to say why. "I am proud of being a soldier, of I being young, of knowing that I am I brave and high spirited; I am proud of, serving France, the land of my birth. Loyalty to the flag, love 0?** country, respect for the given word, the sense, of honor?these, for me, are no hollow, meaningless phrases; they ring like a bugle call in my young heart, and for them, when the moment comes, I shall be able to make the supreme sacrifice."

That.is quick work, even for the United States. None of the European countries got their men ready for war with complete supplies ! in any such time as that, not even ! the mighty, systematic Germany.? Worcester Telegram. tion of each member by mail, by I which method I was recommended to i you, was irregular and requested me ; to call a regular meeting of the so| ciety in order, as you stated, that some person could be regularly and legally recommended for this position, I immediately instructed the secretary, Mr. Funderburk, to inform you by letter that I had been called away from the city to New York and would attend to this matter immediately upon my return. This the secretary did. However, upon my re' turn from Npw York. I found that Dr. Barron, the vice president, had t authorized the secretary to call a meeting. The secretary, as you know, notified Dr. Barron that he did not have access to the roll of member ship of the society at that time and it would, therefore, be impossible for i him to give the notice required by the i by-laws to the members of the society. Immediately upon my return, having been advised of the above stated facts, I gave notice that there would be no ! meeting of the society held at the Jefferson hotel on the 18th inst., for the reason that the members of the , society had not been advised of said meeting in accordance with the coni stitution and by-laws of the society.

It takes off fat and puts 0111 muscle, and the proof of this is that j the average weight of the national j guardsmen who served on the Mexi-j can frontier showed an increase of j about ten pounds, though they drilled and marched in a hot climate, to which most of them were not accustomed. The war department will put more than 600,000 men in training as soon as possible and another half million will be added before the beginning of the year. Two or three years of service in any army puts its ' stamp upon a man. Throughout the rest of his life his back remains straighter, his mind brighter, he is neater in his dress and more resourceful and able to take care of himself than those who have not gone through the experience. No matter what their present at titude may ue, young men who serve their country in this war and come back to it will not regret it in after life, aid will appreciate what has been done for them as they grow older. Many city dwellers look weedy and unfit for, military service, but the J records of our civil war prove that 1 the clerks and indoor workers drawn from the larger cities and towns became strong and active under military training and outmarched men who worked at h?avy trades, and ev- ' en the farmers, who spend so much time out of doors. A prominent Cleveland physician says that 90 per cent, of the army of the unfit can be reclaimed by a course of training and supervision carried on by the government. Nature does wonders when she gets a chance, and the recuperative power of a human body up to the age of 30 or 35 is marvelous. Theodore Roosevelt was a weakling as a boy, 1 and we know what he made of him- ! self. Sandow, the well known pro- ' fessionally strong man, was another ( weakling, whose muscular development' was the wonder of his day. Proper food, exercise, fresh air and regular habits will put four out of five young men on their feet and make them strong for the rest of their days. If we can feed our soldiers properly the well being of the nf the rountrv will be improv ed rather than deteriorated by this | war. Those who stay at home must devote themselves to the production of food for ourselves and our allies and to supplying troops in the field and in military camps of instruction with proper clothing, shelter and medical attendance.?New Yo?k Commercial. % One Seldom Called.
