4 TWO C0URTMAHT1AL OF TEXAS GUARDSMEN War Department to Brine Balking Militiamen to Trial at Once OFFENCE COVERED BY THE DICK LAU Secretary Decides Not te Wai' For Operation of New Act. Washington.?Reversing bis previous decision, Secretary Baker, announced that the 110 members of the Texas National Guard who failed t present themselves for muster intr the Federal service, wi'l be brought to court martial immediately under the present law. Mr. Baker had intended to await thr signing' of the new militia law, now before the president and proceed undei its provisions. Secretary Baker explained his action by pointing out the difference ir. the enlistment oaths guardsmen arc required to take under the Dick law and the new Hay-Chamberlain b;ll The Dick law requires an obligation to defend the constitution and obey orders of the Governor of the State but not the orders of the President TU? ii..,. /~n i i., : ? i. iikz iiatwiiaiiiuci t? in act it'tju.ica cxn oath to obey orders of both the Governor and the President. Upon recommendation of Judge Advocate General Crowder, the secretary lias deckled that the alleged offensive of the guardsmen?refusing to "present" themselves for muster?was committed under the Dick law and trial should be under that law. Gen. Crowder, in a supplementary opinion, held that the Hay-Chamberlain act would not abolish the offense with which the 1916 Texas guardsmen are charged, as has been suggested. On this ruling it will not be necessary to issue a new call for the border militia after the Hay-Chamberlain bill is signed. It was stated officially that Gen. Funston had never requested that the Lcuisana, Arkansas and Oklahoma National Guard be called out f^r border service as reported. Gen. Funsion asked for additional coast artillery but the department decided it was net needed at present, ft Deafness Cannot He Cured. by local applications, as they rannot reach the diseased portions of the ear.

The water was deep and the current was swift. We were afraid to wade through and so we knelt down at the river's side and asked God's guidance. As we rose from our knees we saw a man coming toward us. lie was the first to speak and offered to show us where the watci was shallower and to help us across. As I sat vtth him on the the other side, he said; "You do not seem to recognize me." I did not, and asked him where we had met. "Some months ago," he said, we met in an inn' and you exhorted me to believe in Jesus so that my soul might be saved. I followed you from the village today thinking I might have your life if you tried to cross the river'/ I STATE ITEMS I OF INTEREST TO ALL SOUTH 1 CAROLINA PEOPLE A. A.

The Austrians are successfully continuing their offensive against the Italians in the southern Tyrol. Sir Edward Grey, the ITritish foreign secretary, in a speech in the house of commons set aside all ideas that peace negotiations were possible al the present stage and plainly reiterated that the nositon of the entente. allies was in no way changed. Richard Dickinson .president of ttoe National Canner's association, told the Southern Wholesale Grocers' association here today, that the tendency of prices of canned goods will bo upward for the next few years as a result of the advancing prices of farm products.

Grading through hard ground or.rock, for Instance. Is tedious and requires time ami labor. The use of dynamite for blasting such material Is a welcome relief. Roth rock and hard clay may be- loosened in the cut by well placed charges of explosives if holes .are drilled i;rit? the ground a little way up the bank und loaded. Careful spacing and loading for electrically fired blasts will result In bringing down both classes of materials In the best i>ossible manner. I 1 ' In loosening shale unci rock to facilitate hand or steam shovel work dynamite is also very effective, while stumps may he blasted from the roadbed Just as though they were being removed from a field to. be cleared and cultivated, Boulders also, are easily shattered by suitable loading and when of hard rock may be crushed into surfacing stone. The side ditches as well u? the long outfall ditches can also be* blasted In keeping with the nature of the ground. In fact,, there are no limits practically to the many uses and advantages of dynamite for road building when careful and thoughtful attention Is given to the work. Incidentally the planting of shade trees for roadside improvement nn?l at traetlveness is greatly facilitated by the Judicious use of a little dynamite, It is a recognized fact that trees plant ed in blasted holes grow much more rapidly and progress more favorably than those planted in the average spade dug ground.
