Col. T.D. R. Hemming, officer in com- mand of the 3rd division, was on duty on Tuesday night until eleven o'clock, ing for some of the troops to guard the canals in the divisional area. He ordered out "TV" company of the 4th Hussars to do duty at the locks at the Mwtay canal, least there i might be some foreigners in that lo- ll cality who might make an attempt to put the waterway out of business. Two or three companies oi the 59th regiment of Stormount and Glen garry were opdered out at once to patrol the canal locks near Morris burg, Ferris Point. and Cornwall. Col. Hemming, when speaking to the Whig on Wednesday morning, sta- ted that he had received no word from Ottawa as to the mobilization scheme which had been decided upon by the department. R.C.H.A. Awaits Call. Lieut.-Col. H. A. Panet, officer in command of the R.C.H.A., when ask- ed by a Whig reporter if he had re ceived any word from headquarters as to what part the batteries would play in the war, stated that up until the present time he had received absolute- ly no information. "The R.C.H.A., the same as the rest - of the = citizens, is very anxiously awaiting for the call to go to the front," was the statement of the commanding officer. "If 'the artillery is called to the front we pref + to go as a unit," said Col. Panet. go to 5th Field Battery Ready Major E.

Oge effect of the war in the city was the guard put on the government | wireless station at Barriefield Al messages are censored and an armed guard patrois the vicinity, keeping trespassers at a distance. Meets With Approval. The change said to have been made whereby the militia department wil call for a volunteer contingent to go ,to the war, meets with the approval of the majority of the local ofthcers | On Wednesday morning, when the 1 Whig made inquiries from a number of | the officers in command of the differ. ent corps in this vicinity, it found the imen very favorable to the change. The feeling on the part of the ofl cers is that those who volunteer to go are by iar the better class of men With few exceptions, the city volun feers are very eager to do garrison duty. It is evident that the scheme sug gested hy the minister of militia of calling out the city corps did not {meet with the approval oi members lof the militia eouneil. | { Kingston Feels the War. | Ome of the first cracks Kingston has received as a result of the war is that | the Dominion ¢Giton mills are now tworkigg only hali time. © Most of the local eutton goes to..lapan, apd this market is now closed, owing -to hos tilities on the high seas. Will Guard the Fort. A guard from the Royal Canadian Hopse Artillery has been placed in Fort Henry. There is quite a large stork of ammunition in the fort. | The R. M. C. Officers. ! There are at present three of the instructional staff of the R. M. C. on leave of abfence In England. There leave expires at the end of the month, They. are Major Ham- mond, Capt. Meldon and Capt. Hey- ann. Col. Carleton is expected ome on Thursday from British Col- umbla. His services could not be used as a colonel of a regiment, as in the imperial army a colonel at the end of four years either retires or is given a staff position. Therefore, the only position that Col. Carleton at present holds is mandant of the R. M. C. To be taken back and and given active service command it would be necessdry for the author ities to make him a major-general. As there are a Sumber of Zolopels all over world, many have the right .of seniority over Col. Carleton, and the natural course of events will be for him to continue as commandant. The other officers on the mstruction-| al staff have been 'some regiment, and , "on that regiment taken For them to again take command it would be necessary for some officer already on the force to step out of the position. Major Thompson, who is acting commandant in the absence of Col. Carleton, told the Whig representa- tive on Wednesday morning that as far as any orders for the recall of any of the_ instructors in the college were concerned, he knew absolutely wothing about them. | Jommissions For R. M. C. Cadets. ! It is reported that twenty cadets sf the Royal Military college who vere in the second year class last 'ear, have been offered commissions n the Canadian contingent which j0es to the war. Major Thompson, who is in charge if the college in the absence of Col 'arleton when called/by the Whig wer telephone on Wednesday morn- ng, stated that he had no informa- ion to give out at the . present ime 3 f The 14¢h For Garrison Duty. A number of the mothers and athers of the young men who have nlisted in the 14th regiment during he past year are very much worried ibout their sons being called out for wetive service, i Their nerves were very much sett- ed on Tuesday afternoon upon read- ng the local papers to find that the ainister of militia had changed his_ cheme and would call for a volun- eer contingent to go abroad. In case the 14th is called out it vill only be for garrison duty, pro- ably at Tete de Pont barracks or "ort Henry, on condition that the 1.C.H.A, is called. Report Not True, | There was geport in circulation on Vednesday morning to the affect hat there was possibility of the city orps being called out in three or our hours time. Col. Hemming, ficer in command of the 3rd divisi- n when asked if the report was cor ect, stated that he did not believe was or he would have received vord from Ottawa if there was any- hing doing YY SAVE UP FOR INGRATE ARS. MARIE GREEN, BRINGS AC- TION FOR DIVORCE. wns ! Maintiff's First Husband Was James by ; Garland, Whog She Also Divorced. "=A Story From Boston. ! Boston, Aug. S.--Although it was ut two years ago that she gave up he income from an estate of $10,- 100,000 left her hy her first husband, leclaring she was doing it for "love", drs. Marie Tudor Garland Green now § seeking divorce from the man she narried at that time. He is Francis . Green of New York, who was su- 'erintendent of the big estates of fames Garland, the former husband ff Mrs. Green, at 'Bourne. ! "lI am marrying for love: money sn't everything, and love is or pret- y nearly everything." Mrs. Green is \uoted as saying just before her wed- ling at the Buzzards Bay estate in 1912. The ceremony was performed vith a few relatives and the five 'hildren of Mrs. Green present. A statutory offense is alleged in ler divoree libel. The case will go to rial in September. Green is in New 'ork, where he has been since re- urning from Europe, where the cou le went on their honeymoon trip. Romance has taken strange twists n the life of Mrs. Green. After mar- 'ving her first husband, James A. iarland of Brookline, in 1893, she )btained a divorce from him in 1901 or infidelity, after one of the most ensational trials in the local divorce 'ecords. Three years later, in 1904, 'he remarried Garland, and they liv- 'd happy until his. death. In his will Garland gave the in- 'ome of his estate 'to his widow, #hich she was to have permanently anless she married again, in which' 'ase most of it reverted to their five shildren. 5 In spite of this her medding to ireen followed, and it was under- stood to be a¥genuine love match. loth declared they intended to spend heir lives in the quiet home atmos- here of the Bourne estate. This | hey did for a time, but one day they, sailed for Europe. { They did not return together. | Mrs. Green was Miss Mary Tudor, \ sister of Frederick Tudor of Need- lam, before her marriage to Gar- and, Her sisters are Mrs. Frederick 3. Converse of Westwood, Mrs. W. Starling Burges of Marblehead, and Mrs. Edward W. Slade. 4 Green was a lifelong friend of the woman he married. He was the son of commander Francis M.
