Mettle Jackson drinks it and most of the time she is in Jail. The rest of her time is occupied in either Just getting out or Just going in Over in Alabama.

As the war in Europe bats demonstrated, the engineer and his work are more important than ever before. It is be who maps the country, lays out the trenches and builds the roads and bridges. In the regular army of the United States there is just "De regiment of engineers, and two-thirds of them are stationed in the Philippines and at Panama. In all the national guard west of Pennsylvania there are ouly six companies of engineers. The Chicago engineer company now musters four officers and eighty enlisted men.

Coon, superintendent of the municipal tuberculosis eanitariurn, Health Commissioner ohn Dill Robertson used these werds in, reference to Mayor Thompson's attacks on Dr.

Theodore B. Sachs. Dr. Coon repeated the alleged conversation yesterday before the civil service commission in response to questions from his attorney. Charles H.

Hamill. Dr. Robertson indignantly deniedi the mayor's name bad been mentioned in the conversation. Talked at Bismarck Hotel. "At one time 'in the Bismarck hotel." Dr.

Coon testified, Dr. Robertson said be was sorry I would riot go along with him and said be would have to do the best he could without me. On March 3 of this year be "This is a bad mess we are in; the mayor has made a break by condemning Dr. Sachs. Were those his words?" askedi Mr.

Hamill. No. What he said was that the mayor had made a dn fool of binaself." responded the witness. Didn't Contradict Him. What did you say?" I did not contradict him." 1 What other conversation on this subject did you have with Dr.

Robertson?" On Sundays the next day after the beginning of this investigation, he spoke unfavorably of Mr. Wing (business director of the sanitarium), and at many times he reminded me of an alleged prom-Ise he said I had made to him and to the mayor to go I told him I had never made any promise except that I would give my best for the institution." Dr. Robertson his shoulders twitching with anger, then cross examined the witness in an attempt to upset Dr. Coons teetimony and to show that his administration of the sanitarium might be open to criticism. Dr.

Coon flatly contradicted the health commissioner on various occasions. '4 Isn't it a fact. Dr. Coon." asked Dr. Robertson.

that the mayor's name was never mentioned?" No. sir. that is not a fact," the witness replied. Have you ever heard the expression the Junior doctors do the work and the senior doctors draw the pay?" Yes. sir." Not Common Expression.

a Is it not a fact that that is a very common expression out there?" It is not a fact. But I have heard you frequently make use of it." Is it not true," continued Dr. Robertson. branching into a discussion of the medical aspects of the conduct of the sanitarium, that in all probability some of the NS cases you said were discharged as I apparent arrests are now I would not say so." was the reply. "IX will -tell you for your own information, Dr.

Robertson, that 20 per cent of the cases of tuberculosis discharged from all Institutions relapse because the patients return to their unsanitary living and working conditions." Commissioner Shows Temper. a I ant entirely familiar with the pathology of tuberculosis." returned Dr. ertson, with a show of temper. I ant willing to discuss it any time with you before a medical association, but we are using terms the laity can't understand." Dr. Robertson then questioned Dr.

Coon regarding a' conversation he had with newspaper men one evening at the sanitarium, following meeting of the consulting staff. Isn't it a fact that you said Dr. Robi'tstan told you to tell the truth?" Di. Robertson asked. That is not quite correct I told them I told Dr.

Robertson whatever bap pened I would testify to the truth." Dr. Robertson insisted Dr. Coon was a twisting the answer." Unable to Wheedle Coon. The health commissioner plaintively tried to get Dr. Coon to absolve him from the charge of introducing spoils politics Into the sanitarium.

but the superintendent was noncommittal. His attorney, Mr. Hamill, amused many of the auditors by introducing a letter in which Dr. Robertson told a scrubwoman that she had been appointed by Mayor Thompson to a place at the sanitarium. At the morning session Arthur B.

Mc-Cold, administration attorney for the sanitarium, sought to show by testimony of contractors that the Sachs regime was grossly extravagant. W. J. Reynolds. contractor living at IMO Wilson avenue.

said the cottages at the sanitarium could be duplicated for $9.809 apiece. Mr. McCoid contends 321,000 was the actual amount spent to construct each cottage. Mr. Reynolds was supported by Alfred Mace, an appraiser, who placed the cost at $7.818.

One feature of the coming camp at Belvoir is the riding school for and noncommissioned officers.

N. The riding school was exciting from the start." says the report of last year's camp, also held in Virginia. All the riding was done in the rough wooded country. comprising the nine square miles of the Belvoir tract, now owned by the government. Before the two weeks were over the officers were riding over woods trails and through woods without trails, leaping ditches and clinabing up and down ravines.

The windup of the course consisted of a ride straight down a steep wooded bluff eighty feet high, landing in the Potomac river at the foot of the bluff and wading their horses along the river until a landing place was found and a chance to ascend the bluff by riding up the bed of a small stream."
