Albany, February 7 Governor Whitman has nominated two Brooklyn National Guardsmen to' compete for admission to the United States Military Academy, under the new law passed last year by Congress. The lucky Brooklynltes are Murray J. Kramati, sergeant in Company it of the Fourteenth Regiment, and Edgar M.

Gregory, corporal in the Twelfth Company of the Thirteenth Coast Artillery. The act under which they were elected authorizes the President to appoint cadets to the Military Acad- emy from among enlisted men of the Guard between the ages of 19 and 22 years, who have perved at least a year. Such appointments are made under certain regulations prescribed by the President. These provide that the appointments tliall be made upon recommendations of the Governors of the various States and Territories, and after successful passage of preliminary examinations to be held between January 1 and January 15 of each year. These examinations are to he similar in scope to those required for entrance at West Point.

Governor Whitman ordered that these preliminary examinations be held in New York City, Brooklyn. Albanv, Syracuse and McAllen. Tex. The admission of any of the appointees to the Military Academy depends upon their relative standing in the final examinations when ordered by the War Department. Besides the two Brooklynltes, Governor Whitman appointed six others from Manhattan and other places.

They are Marion W. Clark of Chautauqua, private, Company Seventy-fourth Regiment; Merton E. Jennings' of East Syracuse, private, Fourth New York Ambulance Company; Walter S. Zion of Syracuse, private, also member of the Fourth; Quentin B. Logie of New York City, private in Company 28, New York Coast Artillery Corps; Carl O.

Owing to the uncertainties of the military situation, it was decided at a council of officers to indefinitely postpone the annual non-commissioned officers ball, which has been a fixture in Brooklyn military circles for many years on the eve of Washington's Birthday.

Also the scheduled reviews of the regiment were canceled although there will probably be a review held toward the end of this month, if the regiment is not called upon by that time. Nearly a score of applicants presented themselves to the recruiting officer last night the first harvest in the campaign to secure the 100 men needed to fill the regiment's complement of 1,440 men. But out of the score only eight were accepted and sworn in. "Undeveloped America" was what Lieutenant W. C.

U. Wahle, the recruiting officer of the command, called the condition shown by this wholesale refusal of applicants. The chief defects were lack of weight, poor chest and bodily development, and bad eyesight, while a few were refused because of heart disease, he explained. Despite the number of refusals the recruiting officers expect to reach the desired total within a week. They expressed no fear of leaving with unfilled ranks, if war is declared, but said that in a day after orders were received 300 recruits would come forth, probably 200 of which would be old members of the regiment, anxious to rejoin.

"How could he afford to pay the rent of a place approved by the Fire. Department?" they queried. President Dowling told the Aldermen, In effect, that it would bo an everlasting disgrace for them to kill the measure. "A single human life," he said, "is worth more than all the motorcycle repair shops in the city. You'll be sorry if you defeat this resolution." President Dowling f.eciareti the Health Commissioner had the power to close up such shops as are located In tenement houses, but preferred to have the Board of Aldermen act in the matter.

"If you don't pass this resolution," he went on, "not only the Health Commissioner, but the Fire Prevention organization, will see to it that these shops are cleared out of dwelling houses. Measures more drastic than the one you are now voting on wilj be taken to gain that end." When President Dowling ceased speaking, a dozen or more Aldermen asked that their names be called again to give them a chance to change their "Robert Barker," In white doublet and blue tie, is a fine little man, and William Cotton's notably painted life size portrait of a young woman City Buys Garments in Excess of French Contract at $4 Apiece. against a warm, dark background brings out finely her handsome figure and face and her delicately textured gown.

A number of new votes. Tins was done, and the resolution was adopted by a vote of 47 to 19. A resolution providing for the purchase without public letting of a $1,200 automobile for the use of the Borough President of Brooklyn, was adopted, but not without earnest objection by Alderman Francis P. Bent, who represents the Bushwick district. Bent wanted to know why $1,200 of the taxpayers' money should be put into an auto for President Pounds, or one of his bureau chiefs, when a machine plenty good enough for all practical purposes could be bought at less than half that figure.

He called it "a piece of extravagance." It was explained to Alderman Bent that the money for the $1,200 auto had been appropriated in the budget, and that It was only a question of buy games will be taught. Anyone inter ested may apply to National Head The Charities Department, through the Central Purchasing Committee, has obtained authority from the Board of Aldermen to buy at $4 apiece, without public letting, 2,000 "trench" overcoats, of the kind that are being manufactured In this city for the French army. They are to be used for the inmates of the city's old men's home. This bargain was discovered by Commissioner of Accounts Leonard M. Wallstein, secretary of the Purch-Ing Committee, whose' representative displayed a sample coat before the wondering eves of the City Fathers yesterday afternoon.

The Board was informed that the city had been paying the States Prisons Department about $9 for a coat of the same warmth and quality. The French "trench" overcoat is a comfortable looking garment of ulsterlike pattern. Attached to the cost is a hood that can be drawn over the head In blustery weather. The color Is an olive drab and the material "30-ounce all wool," with a substantial lining. The manufacturer who made these coats has delivered 200,000 of them to the French Government at $11 each.

The 2.000 about to be acquired by the Charities Department were in excess of the contract. quarters of (Mil Scouts, 527 Fifth ave nue, Manhattan.

He played the Schumann Concerto in A minor with the skill which that composer's works demand, being melodic and less involved than are most mou-ern composers' works, and therefore less difficult to play. In the "Andante" he was restrained, and let beauty of tone speak. In the "Allegro" movements, he played with swift regular swing; nothing in the way of the bizarre was noticeable, but soul and mind controlled him.

Alderman Gutman introduced a resolution recommending to the Board of Education that hereafter any person appointed to any teaching or supervising position in the public schools shall, in writing, declare his belief in the principles of the Constitution of the United States and "the intention to promote the good order and happiness of our country." Gutman said that for a number of years the Board of Education had appointed many teachers who are not citizens of the United States, and that among the teachers in the public schools of the city there were at the present time 1,000 aliens.

Washington would not have succeeded without the aid given to the American people by the French Government, King Louis XVI and tne French people. Washington fought England with his hands tied. Many defeats in New England, New York, Virginia and the South greatly dis-couraged the patriots and i requires no deep study of our nation's history to bring to Americans a realization of the fact that, but. for the soldiers and ships, the funds and support given by Trance, the Revolution would have been crushed. Without the aid of the French soldiers unci the French fleet, which blocked the mouths of the James and York Rivers, the decisive Mow could not American cause.

The French Government Is now contributing 10 francs ($2) per month to the support of each child, but the sum of $5 for ene.h orphan i needed, and the American Society Is seeking to provide the necessary $3 per month additional to support hh ha-le.
