PAGE THREE PLAN OEFEKSES FOR GOLD HILL Natives Fearinrj Capture of Future j Metropolis Will Mount Cannon on Hill Above Town Only One Pri- vate in Millfia-r-AII Rest Officers. Fearing the enpture of Gold Hill At the municipal election hold by Jups, tho general war board in Monday the voters of the town de Gold Hill have ordered a large call- clured in no uncertain terms that ber rapid fire gun to be mounted on the blgb hill near the little city. It will command the valley. It will be kept trained on the sleeping quartors of Jack Merrill's Jap cook so that, at tho first hostile move the son of Nippon may bo nipped on the spot he being the only Jap in tho vicinity. Those military experts at Gold Jllll are taking no chances. Tho general maneuvers which were to be held today in the llttlo city In order to demonstrate the readiness for war have been postponed owing to a dearth of enlisted men in the proposed militia company. To dato but one private has been found in the little city Ilex Lampman, who has no time to learn tactics, as his time Is occupied as war correspondent, writing bellicose articles for his week ly sheet, spurring his fellow citizens into action, in order to protect their homes from tho yellow horde which, lie says, will soon pour Itself over tho coast until not a hamlet Is left with out the scars of conflict. Of officers there is a sufficiency. Every citizen would direct tho battle. For instance, Fred Dodge would be nothing if not a lieutenant; Fritz Ilammorsloy Is a Borgeant; Riley Hammorsloy is colonel; Joe Ham mersloy is corporal; Dee Smith is a lieutenant; Johnny llcctl, when ho Is not dumocratlng around, is a major; Sam CcClendon isc a drummer boy. That's all tho able-bodied men avail able and there you are. Recruiting offices havobeen opened, physical examination waived, but still tho pri vates do not come. Military experts point out the fact that with but one private Rex Lampman tho force Is not enough to provent tho capture of tho town, for Jack Merrill's Jap la said to tyo more than a match for Rex, and who ever heard of an officer exposing bis per son to dangor? Gold Hill is doomed. Meanwhile odds are going up that war will be declared before midnight. Mrs. Meluer Guilty. ALHANY, N. V., March 17.
