TR TURNS OVER BOD ENGINEERS 70 FRST REGIMENT Entire Body Asked to Appear at Enlistment Headquar- ters at Once. ‘Thomas C. Desmond, the contractor who organized the detachment of en- gineors {> have been attached to the Roosevelt Logion, this afternoon noti- fled Capt. John P. Hogan, in charge of recruiting headwuarters of the First Engineers (New York) Division, that the 800 men provisionally enrolled for the Colonel's regiment would be avail- able for “sapper service” in France. Capt. Hogan at once sent out form letters to the entire list of Roosevelt men, asking them to visit the enlist- ment headquarters, No. 190 Sixth Avenue. The regiment has now at- tained a strength of 789 recruits of the 1,061 required; but military ex- igencies will in all likelihood swell this number to 1,261 According to Capt. Hogan, buglers and cooks are now the most needed factors in the regiment, Only two cooks have been enlisted so far, Of the twenty buglers needed, not one has appeared One hundred and sixty-four men, constituting the first of the active engineering corps to be placed in actual raining, were despatched to- day ty Fort Totten, L. 1. They were under Capt. H. W. Hudson, Second ldeut, W. Anderson and Major Dwight. Capt. Hudson is the engi- neer who in large measure drew up plans and carried out the construc- tion of the Hell Gate Bridge. Major Alexander, hitherto on re- cruiting duty at Albany, has sailed for Europe under sealed orders, His place will be taken by First Licuten- ant J. M. Marshall. It is understood Major Alexander will make arrange- ments for housing the American troops In France. Among to-day's applicants for en- rolment with the Engineering Corps is the Rev, John Sullivan of St Mary's Church, He informed Cap » Was anx- fous to be Chaplain of the Engineers Corps. Recruiting for the Marine Corps has taken on a sudden spurt. New York's figures for the week show total enrolment of 267.

They are the young men and women for whom the honeymoon is even now rising, who will become June brides and bridegrooms of 1917. Thirty days of bliss and then the husband will leave for his ship or regiment and the bride take up the rake or the hoe or the Red Cross, Pocording to the nature of her patriotic activities, And probably there is not one of these enraptured creatures who could be persuaded at this moment that this separation in the interest of thelr country will be also the very best thing that could happen to their love, é bs ad moons, with time enough and inconstancy of husbands or the du- plicity of wives. For she cannot help thinking, long before the point is reached, “I see the joke, but if that man were John or that woman were I, It wouldn't be funny; it would be awful.” ON hand, women think} things amusing which to men appear merely as “catty.” A woman who would lay down her life for her friend will tell with the most ruthless detail of a visit to the hair- dresser in her company and of hear- ing the hairdresser say mysteriously, ‘Will you have some of that—you know what I mean—that—in the wa- lor to-day?” She considers it highly humorous that Jane, to her positive knowledge, has bees thirty-two years old for the last fifteen years. And she extracts real amusement from the circulation of Jane's real age. On subjects such as these the most perfectly attuned honeymooners will tract every particle of honey from each of them, They will not have leisure to quarrel over the bills or the morning paper, They will not have to live through that inevitable hour when each must face the dis- covery that the other is merely a human being. ne other nany thirty d No woman’ finds wings an inconvenience for a month It is only after the weary routine of silent breakfasts and controversial that he discovers that her wonder if mother was not really half right in her disparaging estimate of her son-in-law.

Parsons was arrested and after his confession was taken to Nashville by @ big force of Deputy Sheriffs, Word got abroad to-day that he was being brought back for trial. A lynching mob was formed at Potts Camp and went to the railroad, fifty miles away, to intercept the train, The Deputies ‘were overpowered and Parsons was! brought back to the scene of his crime. On the way he made a second confession in which he implicated a deaf and dumb negro and another as | having shared his guilt, Neither of | them had left the place, | The mob took Parsons to a tree near where the girl was murdered. The story of his detailed confession seemed to arouse the men to uncon- trollable fury and he, was slashed, } disfigured and tortured while he was! being prepared for burning, A pro- posal that he be shot before he was set on fire was vetoed by the mother of his victim, who was supported by the voices of scores of women and| girls who were in the crowd of sev- ADLIER “THAN THE OLD Bow- AND “ARROW IRISH CONVENTION BIG.

No sooner was Parsons dead than the lynchers, none of whom wore masks and all of whom have some standing in the neighborhood, scat- tered to find the two he had accused as accomplices, In less than an hour DeWitt Ford was found and brought in, Posses are still scouring the coun- try for the third negro and there is no doubt that both will be burned at once, The crowd waited impatiently for news that he had been éaptured, only held back from burning Ford by the promise of a double burning later. Burt Ingram, a negro chauffeur, who witnessed the lynching, narrow- ly escaped death himself. When Par- son's sufferiogs were most horrible, he, Ingram, tore the United States flag from the hood of the machine in which he had driven several of | the lynchers, tore it across the mid- Hopeful Beginning of Solu- tion of Old Problem. LONDON, May 22—2.15 P.
