S. S. Eagle 56, now in reserve at the Portsmouth, N. H., navy yard, to the naval reserves of the District of Columbia as a train- ing ship has been announced by the Navy Department. The commandant of the first naval district has informed the department that in response to the message of the bureau of opera- tions he had designated that vessel for the local reserves. The vessel, he also informed the department, will be ready to turn over to the naval reservists at the Ports- mouth navy yard August 31. ‘The local reservists have been wait- ing for notice of the assignment of another training vessel here for some time. As soon as they receive offi- cial information that the vessel has been assigned, together with instruc- tions to.send a crew of local reserv {ists to Portsmouth to bring it down tha coast and up the bay and river to Waskington, the officers and men to man her will be selected from those who have been regular in their at- terdance at the weekly drills of the reserves and men who have shown interest in their naval duties. Lieut. Commander William R. Hoe- fer. executive officer of the local {reserve brigade, said that he had not i been officially notified of the assign- ment of the vessel, but that he was prepared to send a crew of officers and men just as soon as he received instructions from the Navy Depart- ment. The realization that they are soon to have a vessel of the Eagle type here for training purposes was re- ceived by the reservists with much enthusiasm, as they have been strug- gling along under difficulties for some months, with only a small and adequate bchaser to take week end training trips down the Potomaec river and Chesapeake bay. ‘The assignment of a vessel of this type here, it was said at the Navy Department, is a part of the plan to put the reserves of the whole coun- t? on a highly efficient plane as an adjunct to the regular y in time of war. Gradually the reservists who entered the Navy during the war and served only during that period, and who have been lax in their naval interest since that time, are being weeded out, and only those officers and men who show a zealous desire to continue their naval duties will be kept in the service. The department is planning to do Rear Admiral Grayson At Saratoga Springs Rear Admiral Cary T. Grayson is spending the month of August at Saratoga Springs, N. Y., where he is at the United States Hotel. NO FIRES; BERRIES FAIL. Mountain Crops Lost When Woods Remain Unburned. Special Dispatch to The Star. LYNCHBURG, Va., August 6.—“Pin money” from huckleberries for peo- ple who live in the Virginia moun- tains will be small in future years, if the federal forest reserve is able to keep down mountain fires. It is alleged that the berry bush can- not grow in the mountains in the undergrowth that results if the mountajns are not burned over as they were prior to the coming of the protection that comes frorm the for- est reserve attaches. This condition, of course, does not prevail down in the valleys, where the berries will still flourish as they formerly did on the mountain ranges. —_— VETERINARIANS TO MEET. D. C.
