VILLA WILLING T0 SGN A TRUCE OF THREE MONTHS Notifies United States of His De- sire to Do Anything to Cause Early Peace. WILL AVOID ALL FIGHTING President Returns to White House and Approves Pan- American Appeal to Mexicans. By Associated Press. WASHINGTON, Aug. 12.—Gen. Villa has informed the United States Government that he is willing to sign a truce of three months or more duration with his opponents during which time a peace conference shall be held, Gen. Villa, who has been in confer- ence at El Paso and Juarez with Major- General Scott, Chief of Staff of the United States Army, and American con- sular agents, expressed in a definite way his willingness to do anything that might bring about an early peace, ac- cording to reports from Government agents at the border today. Villa is understood to have ordered ‘his commanders to avoid fighting and to evacuate places threatened with at- tack as evidence of a sincere desire to make peace. President Approves Appeal. President Wilson and Secretary Lan- sing conferred at length today on the Mexican situation. Details of yester- day’s conference in New York of the ‘Latin-American diplomats were given to the President. Just before the Secretary went to the White House he announced that the ap- peal to the Mexican factions and leaders would not be sent today, as arrange- ments for its transmission by telegraph and mail ‘to remote parts of Mexico were not complete. The communication:-has been finished ‘and signed and it has been approved by ‘the President. State Department offi- clals Were preparing today the list of Governors and Generals to whom it is ‘to be pent. ‘With the return of the President it peace plan does not contemplate in any Way the use of force or the impairment in domestic affairs. The purpose is ‘to influence the Mexicans themselves to held @ peace convention and the govern- ment created by that action will be ac- corded recognition, even if the acqui- escence of all the factions is not ob- tained. Precautionary Measures. The sending of battleships to Vera Cruz and other movements that may follow are described officially as precau. tionary measures to afford assistance to foreigners. Secretary Lansing de- clined to comment on Gen. Carranza’s letter of protest against the Pan-Ameri- can peace plan. He said no reply had been made. The latter, however, has not disturbed officials, for they are con- vinced that Gen. Carranza does not con- trol the opinion of the many Generals and leaders who are reported to be un- der his command. The feeling is that when the Pan- it will be evident that Carranza has been misinformed as to the purposes of the peace plan and there is a hope that some of his hitherto close supporters will give their adherence to the idea of & peace conference. Foreigners Safe, Says Carranza. Gen. Carranza issued from Vera Cruz today through his Washington agents a denial that any outrages either were committed or contemplated against for- eigners within his jurisdiction. Hts message said: “You may deny through the press that foreigners of any nationality are in danger in Mexico, for the Constitu- tlonalist Government offers and will give every sort of guarantee to the citizens of other nationalities, exactly as to Mexicans themselves,‘for the protec- tion of their lives and property. “V.

LONDON, Aug. 12.—Under the au- thority of the War Office, arrangements have just been completed for taking a complete moving-picture record of events of the war in the British lines, both at the front and along the §nes of communication. The leading film producers and exhib- itors, it is announced, have been brought into a co-operative scheme, s0 that no single firm shall have a mo- nopoly of the pictures. The first pho- tographs will be taken in about a fort- night. One complete ‘set of the pictures will be retained by the War Office for his- torical records and instruction. This set will eventually be placed in the British Museum. The Board of Education is expected to co-operate in a scheme for the use of the films in the public FORMER MAYOR OF TERRE HAUTE IS WASHING CLOTHES IN PRISON Leavenworth Official Thought Donna M. Roberts Was Too Particular About His Linen. LEAVENWORTH, Kan., Aug. 12.- When Donn M. Roberts, former Mayor @ Terre Haute, Ind., convicted of elec- tion frauds, was brought to the Federal Penitentiary here, the prison officials tried to show him all possible leniency by placing him in a clerical position in the office of the superintendent of con- ‘struction. But. now Roberts has to do ‘regular’ work. It came about in this fashion: Roberts’ laundry was not done up to suit him one day and on the advice of an old convict he went to the prison laundry te complain. “Do you think it could be done any better?” the laundry superintendent asked him. . “I see no reason why it shouldn’t,’’ the ex-Mayor retorted. “I'd think anybody could do better work than this.’’ “Well, then, you’re just the man we want. Get to work.’’ Now Roberts washes prisoner’s clothes. Another convict not so particular about his linen has the clerical job. MARSHALL PRAYS EVERY NIGHT FOR SAFETY OF PRESIDENT Vice-President Says He Believes Ex- ecutive Will Lead People of Earth to Universal Peace. PEABODY, Kan., Aug. 12.—In a speech here last night, Vice-President Marshall made a strong plea for Amer- icans to heed the advice of President Wilson and remain neutral. “If we have peace with honor,’’ he said, “‘we must quit taking sides and stand behind the President. President Wilson has a great load on his shoul- ders, but don’t you make it Bigger by taking sides. And I want to say right now, there is one President of this United States who is not envied by the Vice President and that is President Wilson. There is not a night that I don't pray before I go to bed for the safety and protection of our President. “I may be a dreamer, but I believe out of it all will come international disarmament. And when this war is over, out of it all will loom President Wilson, the greatest man the world has ever known, for he will have led the people of all the earth to universal peace.”’ GIRL WINS $3 A WEEK JOB AND A $10,000 INHERITANCE Miss Mary Smith of Chicago to Look After ‘Uncle Jimmy’ and ‘Aunt Louise’ Pankhurst of McHenry County, Ill. CHICAGO, Aug. 12.—Miss Mary Smith, who lives in Kimbark avenue, near Six- ty-third street, gets the $10,000 job on “Uncle Jimmy” Pankhurst’s farm in — will be no hitch ig the plan, as there was yesterday, when it was announced that Miss Louise Grady had been se- lected for the position coveted by 2000. After her selection it was found that Miss Grady was not strong enough for the work.

The piece of wood was knocked by Housan's son, Floyd, 12 years old, who was playing the game with his brother, Lester, 16, in front of their home to- day. Housan had. just emerged from the house and was talking to Floyd when the piece of wood struck him. He is at the city ‘hospital. Free Band Concerts Tonight.

THOUSAND DRIVERS THREATEN STRIKE FOR HIGHER WAGES Team Owners Refuse to Grant Demands; Say They Mean $140,000 More in Payroll. 10-HOUR DAY ALSO SOUGHT Decision of Men’s Action to Be Made by International Presi- dent in Indianapolis. A strike of more than 1000 teamsters avd motor truck drivers, which would tie up the movement of freight in St. Louis and East St. Louis, is threatened as a result of the refusal by the Team Owners’ Association of the. men’s de- mands for a new wage scale. The increase asked for by the men, as stated to a Post-Dispatch reporter this afternoon by John Duggan, secre- tary and treasurer of the local branch of the International Protherhood of Teamsters and Chaufferrs, are: For drivers of one-horse wagons, $12.50 to $14; two-horse, from $14.20 to $16; two- horse, more than 5000 pcunds, from $16 to $18; three-horse, $17.20 to $22; four- horse, $18.40 to $25. The men also demand a 10-hour day instead of 12 hours, and no Sun- day work except between 9 a. m. and noon. Means $140,000 Payroll Increase. The wage increase demanded, the employerg hold, would mean an an- nual increase of $140,000 in their payrolls, and they hold that present conditions do not justify such an ex- péenditure. The value of the freight handled b ythese teamsters weekly is said to amount to $500,000. Duggan said the men’s demands were decided on at a meeting held July 27, and were presented to the team owners’ organization, of which George J. Tansey is the active head. At a meeting Aug. 3, he said, Tansey was present and told the men no concessions would be made, and that the team owners would merely like to know the day when it was in- tended to begin the strike. Duggan said the men met two days later and decided to strike, subject to the International Board of the union, whtich has its headquarters in In- dianapolis. D. J. Tobin, national presi- dent, in charge at Indianapolis, has been notified, and on his answer, Duggan said, the strike will depend. He did not know when he would be likely to hear from Tobin, he said. “Not Seeking Any Strike.” “We are not seeking any strike,’’ Dug- gan. said. ‘“‘We are merely trying to negotiate a satisfactory agreement with the team owners. . “We understand that the team own- ers have created a defense fund, antici- pating a strike, and that they !.ave ad- vertised in Chicago newspapers for negroes to come here and take the Places of the teamsters who are now working on the wagons.”’ The present wage scale was agreed to two years ago and expired July 31. (When it was made the teamsters were given an advance of $1 a week. AMERICAN CONSUL AT MUNICH ATTACKED BY LONDON PAPER LONDON, Aug. 12.—A prominent po- sition is given by the Morning Post to ar attack upon E. St. John Gaffney, U. 8. Consul at Munich, for his alleged “unneutral, pro-German and anti-Brit- ish’’ attitude. The Post says he visited London some time ago to make Inqu'ries regarding German prison camps and ‘‘while enjoy- ing the hospitality of this country he was so loud in his expression of anti- British opinion that he gave offense to many persons stopping at the same hotel.”’ The Post charges that in other instan- ces also Gaffney used ‘‘his official posi- tion as a house-top for the proclamation of his personal prepossessions'’ which “is especially deplorable at a time when the United States is looking after the interests of British subjects."’ SHOWERS PROBABLE, WITH ABOUT SAME TEMPERATURE THE TEMPERATURES, High, 70 at 3:30 p. m.

DETECTIVES RAID HOME THROUGH QUEER BLUNDER Enter Thomas Horn’s House Thinking Missing Bank Cash- ‘ier Was There. A cross - questions-and-silly-answers misunderstanding between a private de- tective and a housemaid caused mucn excitement in the 6100 block on McPher- son avenue last night, when city detec- tives, private detectives and an [Illinois Sheriff raided the home of Thomas Horn, a mining engineer, living at No. 6117. Horn is brother to Henry Horn, miss- ing cashier of the Duquoin (Ill.) bank, which was closed last February, with more than $300,000 of liabilities and less than $2000 of money on hand. A per- sistent search for the cashier has been maintained for nearly six months, but without result. Detective Calls. Last night’s events have disclosed that an operative for.a private detective agency had been prowling around the Thomas Horn home, in the hope that Henry might drop in to pay his brother a visit. Something seemed to tell the detective yesterday that Henry was there, so he approached the house cau- tiously and rang the bell. The house- maid answered. “Is Mr. Horn at home?” he asked. *‘You mean Mr. Thomas Horn?’ wet Se “No; he’s down at work.” The detective thought that ‘‘you mean Mr. Thomas” significant, so he asked if there were any other Mr. Horns there. In response to his further questions the maid admitted that Mr. Tommy Horn was then in the house asleep. Whether he thought Tommy sounded like Henry or reached the deduction that there couldn't be a Mr. Thomas Horn and a Mr. Tommy Horn in the same family is not known, but the de- phone and advised his office the quarry had at last been run to earth. Sheriff Starts With Warrant. The agency telephoned to Pinckney- ville, Ill, and Sheriff J. C. Charlton started for St. Louis with a warrant on the first train. He and thres detec- tives reached the Horn home at mid- night, when all the family was in bed. One of them leaned against the door bell until a maid answered. Waving his warrant, the Sheriff brushed past her into the house, followed by one of the detectives, while the others kept watch outside, front and rear. They found only three members of the family, two sons of Thomas Horn, and their grandmother. The boys said they had not heard of their uncle, Henry, for two months, but that his wife was at the house one night a month ago. The housemaid was sent for. “Where is this Henry Horn you said was here?” she was asked. “T didn’t say any Henry Horn was here,” she replied. “I said Tommy.” ‘Well, where's ‘Tommy,’ as you call him?” , The maid pointed to the youngest of the two boys, Thomas Hore Jx “That's 5 | him,” she said, ‘ tective hastened to the nearest tele- | ROUDEBUSH SAID 10 BE SLATED Ad AUS: SUCCESSOR Mayor Kiel Reported to Have Selected Decomratic Lawyer for School soard. A report that has gained credence among close associates of Mayor Kiel is that the Mayor will appoint A. Holt Roudebush, a Democrat,-to the vacancy in the Board of Education, caused by the removal of August H. Kuhs, a Re- publican, by the Circuit Court. Roude- bush is a lawyer and was Associate City Counselor under Charles W. Bates, and was leading Democratic candidate..for the board at the last election. t When asked about the report today the Mayor replied, ‘“‘I have not yet con- sulted Mr. Roudebush.” When asked if he would offer the place to Roudebush in the event the latter’s acceptance was likely, the Mayor said: “I prefer not to discuss that. I have not yet been formally notified that there is & vacancy in the board.” It was learned today that the Mayor had inquired of Charles P. Mason, sec-' retary-treasurer of the board, whether a notice of a vacancy was forthcoming and had been told that one could not be ordered until the next board meeting, which will be on the second Tuesday in September. Democratic party leaders before the election nominated Dr. M. A. Frafiken- thal and George Ernst for two places on the board. Roudebush was nbdminated by &@ committee of business men, who also recommended that the name of Phil Scanlan be written in for a fourth place. At the polls leoudebus! led Frankenthal and Ernst by almost 4000 votes. Roudebush is a member of the Civic League and of the City Club. AUTOIST WHO PASSED STREET CAR ON LEFT SIDE DISCHARGED Fred W. Guetgemann of 2729 South ‘Broadway, who admitted that he ran his automobile on the, left side of the Grand avenue Car track, contrary to the traffic laws, In order to get ahead of a street car, was discharged today by Police Judge Hogan, who said the ordinances favored street cars too greatly, and caused automobolists to lose time un- necessarily. Judge Hogan said he intended to show leniency in cases of this kind, where it is shown that automobilists have been delayed by having to follow street cars. He said the street cars make long stops at corners to load up, and that the machines are not permitted to pass them, and that then the street cars run to the next corner at a speed higher than is permitted to automobiles, and stop there, causing a new delay. Guetgemann was arrested at Grand avenue and Arsenal street,’after he had gone ahead of a street car at Hartford street by running to the left of it as it stood still. He said he had been trying to overtake thid street car for eight blocks, and that it was delaying him in i keeping a business appointment, | DRAMATIC SCENES ON NIGHT WARSAW WAS EVACUATED Sky Flamed Red From Burning Military Build- ings and Railway Shops— Troops Jammed Bridges—Many Citizens Refuse to Flee. By Associated Press. LODZ, Russian Poland, via London, Aug. 12.—The City of Wursaw, the cen- ter of the recent colossal campaign for the Vistula line, suffered comparatively little from the battles which raged around it and from the process of its evacuation by the Russians. Althougn fears had been expressed that the Rus- sians in leaving the city might repeat the century-old precedent at Moscow and set the town on fire. they did not do so. The water, gas and electric plants were left in working order and only in Praga were the water mains damaged in several places by explo- sions. The Russians retired in such haste at the last moment that they omitted to carry out many measures they had planned. A whole park of automobiles and carriages which had been collected for removal was left behind. An order to carry off the church bells was only partially executed and many bells, even those in the principal churches, were left hanging. Residents Refuse to Leave. Most of the Polish residents of the city declined to follow the order to leaye with the Russians, generally escaping deportation by keeping cut of sight. The scenes on the night of the evac- uation were dramatic. At 10 oclock in the evening a series of extraordinarily heavy explosions was beard, signalizing the destruction of the forts. The sky over the city flamed red from burning military buildings and railway shops. The bridges were jammed with retiring troops or flooded with volumes of ar- tillery. At 5 o'clock the next morning the three Vistula bridges were destroyed. An hour later two, German officers rode coolly through the city in an automo- bile to the town hall, where they met the. chief of the Citizens’ Committee. A few minutes afterward patrols of cav- alry appeared, their lances decked with flowers and the men singing “Die Wacht Am Rhein.” From the scenes in the streets it might have been thought the event was a city festival. Crowds in gay summer attire thronged the thoroughfares, cheer- ing the entering soldiers,. while many offered them flowers. Many Casualties in City. Meanwhile from the river front and even from overhead, came the noise of exploding shrapnel shells and the whit of speeding bullets, Many casualties occurred in the city and ambulances were busy the entire day transporting the wounded to their homes or to hos- pitals. Municipal affairs are in the hands of a Citizen's Committee under the contro! of which a volunteer citizens’ police force has been formed to preserve order. The destruction of the raliroad bridge was poorly executed. The middle spans were wrecked and dropped into the river, but the plers were left standing, so that | |}time to rebuild the structufes and re- open railroad communications for Prince Leopold’s armies. OFFICER TELLS OF WARSAW’S FALL Citizens Sipped Coffee in Cafes With Fighting 100 Yards Away, He Says. Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch and the New York Werild. LONDON, Aug. 12.—The corre- spondent of the Daily News in Rot- terdam sends the following: A remarkable story of the German entry into Warsaw is confributed to the Vossische Zegung and the Ber- liner Morgenpost: by -a “highly placed officer.’’ It confirms reports of the completeness with which the Russians removed everything that would be of slightest use to the Ger- mans and provides a telling word picture of conditions’ in the city im- mediately after its evacuation. He writes: “Even while fighting was pro- ceeding in the streets the inhabitants sipped their coffee stoically at cafes only a few houseg away from the barricades. “Our car runs along the road of the Russian retreat toward Warsaw. Scorched fields, burned farms and villages fly past. On both sides of the road are wrecks of carts, sol- diers’ coats, cartridge cases here and there, boots and bread cafés. Many fresh graves also mark the road along which the Russian army went for its regrouping. Felled trees placed across the road as obstacles have to be removed by our men. “The German soldiers are standing on the green walls of the forts in which there was fighting this morn- ing. Then came the walls of the town and the fortress itself, earthen walls, with antiquated earthen works. People Leaving Suburbs. “In the suburbs there seems to be no end to the long etreams of refu- gees coming out by the same roads along which the German troops are marching into the town. Along the high sides of the road thousands of people are standing, witnessing the egtrance of the German troops.

Hitherto, « heavy load had lain upon the town, probably because the anziety of the last few days as {to what scene would now be played in the world’s history, and what would happen when the Russians withdrew. it will take but a comparatively short : RUSSIANS FEAR ~ PETROGRAD [5 GERMANS GOAL Baltic Flank of Von Hinden- burg’s Army Virtually Reaches the Banks of the Dvina, With Czar’s Capi- tal 300 Miles Away. Second Line of Defense to Which Russians Proposed to Go From Warsaw Now Seems Untenable. Germans Advancing Fromi Vistula Take Lukow, 50 Miles Southeast of War- saw, and Advance Else- where. By Assoctated Press LONDON, Aug. 12.—The Baltic flank of the German armies under Field Mart shal von Hindenburg virtually hase at- tained the banks of the River Dvina, between Riga and Dvinsk, with Petro- grad less than 300 miles away in a dis. tant line. Thence southward the line sweeps west with the Russian fortress of Kovno still holding out, but next week may see a great battle on the road toward the Russian capital. The second line of defense’ upon which the Russians proposed te fall back after abandoning Warsaw, har all the appearance of heaving bees rendered untenable and the British and Russian press is beginning te see in the Austro-German pian an ambitious plunge deeper inte Russia, with Petrograd as the goal. Terrific Fighting at Kovno, Meantime the Russian rear guards are fighting desperately, especially in the critical Dvina region, and at Kovno, to capture which the Germans are making a terrific sacrifice of men. It seems plain now. the Germans pur- pose no great demonstration in the West, but intend rather to press to the utmost their so far brilliantly successful Russian campaign on the theory that conditions in France and Belgium are such that neither the French nor the Brittsh immediately will attempt @ gen- eral offensive. During the lull tn activity on the front in France and Belgium the British pub- lic is looking to the Dardanelles to bring the relief Russia so badly needa, so the task of opening the straits remains 4 difficult problem which some think may be solved only by a change in the Bal- kan situation. Both Germany and the entente Powers are exerting the hardest pressure on Bulgaria, as that country is considered to be the key to the situa- tion. Gen. Sir Ian Hamilton reports from the Dardanells that the area held by the entente allies in the Anzac Zone (territory held by Australians and New Zealanders) on the Gallipoli Peninsula has been nearly trebled. Five out of six guns in the Turkish Asiatic bat- teries are reported to have been put out of action by the French battleship St. Louis. Oceupted Ground Trebled. The official statement given out last night says: , ‘The latest reports from Sir Ian Ham- iiton states that severe fighting contin- ued yesterday in the Gailipoll peninsu- la, mainly in the Anzac gone and in that to the north. The positions oc- cupied were slightly varied in places, but the general result is that the area held at Angac has been nearly: trebled owing chiefly to the gallantry and dash of the Australian and New Zealand army corps. “While to the north no further progress has been made, the troops have inflicted heavy losses on the enemy and the French battleship St. Louis is re- ported to have put out of action five of six guns in the Asiatic batteries.” Since Saturday night, when fresh Brit- ish forces were landed on the Gallipoli Peninsula, there has been almost con- tinuous fighting on the Krithia road. In these operations the Australians and New Zealanders tn the Anzac Region (a name taken from the initial letters of the words “Austraiian-New Zealand Army. Corps”) have co-operated with new forces to the north. German submarines have renewed their activity and in the last four days have GERMANS CAPTURE LUKOW, 50 MILES BEYOND WARSAW i , i iEE: if

ASTRONOMY AND HIGHER MATHEMATICS USED TO TRAIN GUNS ON GALLIPOLI Officer in Conning Tower Can Get Range to Fraction of a Second—Peninsula, De- serted, Devastated by Shells. Correspondence of the Associated Press. GALLIPOLI PENINSULA, July 10.— There aré few houses on the Gallipoli Peninsula that have not been wrecked by the severe bombardment incident to the landing of the allied troops last April and there are no houses that are now inhabited. There are wheat fields waiting for the reaper and vineyards and olive groves where work might be done. In the vil- lages, the few remaining shops stand idle. From the harbors along the Dar- danelles and Gulf of Saros the boats have vanished, and the nets of the fish- ermen have dried in the hot son a long time. Out on the flelds the crude plows and harrows lack” oxen. The windmills are ruins or have had their canvas sails stripped by shot and shell. Town, village and countryside have been deserted by their populations. The picturesque civilian garb of Turk and Greek has disappeared and instead ev- erywhere the dull olive drab and hardly brighter khaki uniform of the Turkish soldier. . This is the Gallipoli Peninsula today. Shells by Tens of Thousands. The British and French ships have thrown tens of thousands of heavy shells on the narrow strip of land, Mai- Gos and Noulain have been razed. Kirthia is a heap of ruins and Gallipoli stands as a monument to what modern artillery may do. To any ef these must be added every other town, village and hamlet on the peninsula, and they are by no means few in number. The expenditure of artillery and ae- roplane ammunition of the British and French has been enormous, and waste- ‘ful. This morning a British cruiser threw into the town of Gallipoli, exactly 101 shélis—a sort of salute to Czar Mars, bécause there is nothing in Gallipoli to call for such an extravagance with the taxpayers’ money. At another point, néarby, % shells were hurled. Both bombardments resulted in a bag of one shepherd wounded. But the bombardment was a fine ex- hibition. For the greater part of an hour it kept the echos of the Gallipoli hilis busy. Then the cruiser steamed to other porte—to one of the islands iu the Aegean, where its crew may be en- joying a good rest at this moment. Not a sqaure foot of ground on the peninsula is safe against the British ship artillery fire, though @ugouts help The British gunners staft early—about 6:15 o'clock in the morning. Why, no- body. knows. Light conditions for them would bé best late in the afternoon, when the sun illuminates the hilis of tha peninsula from the southwest, when, Iu a pinch the artillery officer of the bombarding ship can make splendid use of it. If the land marks on the coast do not suit his purposes well enough he can establish to a fraction of a geo- graphical second just where he is, measure distance between gun and tar- get on his map, shout certain numbers to his crews in the turret and—bang! The proceeding is simple enough and the landscape of the peninsula, were it a sentient being, would know it. The peninsula gives the impressior of a pest of very large and exceedingly ac- tive moles having. visited .it—together with a violent earthquake. Seen from an elevation, located anywhere, the hills, slopes and narrow valleys appear to have broken otit in a sort of bad rash. Daily the rash increases. A few days ago the Associated Press correspondent was waked at 6:15.a, m. by heving a shell explode inconveniently close— through the canvas wall of the tent in which he slept, or. had Slept until that moment. Other shells came, and before the British cruiser deigned to be silent more than 80 shots had land- ed both far fromm and near to the tent. But by that time the correspondent lay snug in a bombproof. If it isn’t artillery that Spoils the Gallipoli landscape it ig the busy aeroplanist’'s bomb. The allies have many flyers and all of them are bent upon making life on the peninsula as precarious as possible. Every day these birds of ill oman come, and they all throw bombs, some explode with one bang, others do the trick in three installméents—in a sort of ripping crash that makeg the sound of strik- ing lightning a pé6or imitation of what man can do in that line. Landscape Suffers. The hole left by the aerial bomb js not largé. But the landscape suf- fers nevertheless. Everything within @® generous radius of the éxplosion goes down. The grass vanishes under the hot withering breath, and bush and trees aré snapped like so many dry twigs. To the British bombarding ships the Turks pay rio heed—for good rea- sofis. The bombardments are carried On from so long a range that the Turkish batteries cannot reach thése disturbers of the idyllic peace, but the aeroplane can be given at least a little attention. The hum of its mo- tor is hardly heard when certain bat- _teries get ready. But to get an aero-« plane down is largely accident, and the aviator knows it. So on he sails and just to return compliments he drops a bomb when he imagines he is over the offending battery—wnhish he hardly ever is, according te two weeks’ experience of the Associated Press correspondent. What goes into the air must come down again. The law of gravity makes no exception, even in the case of shrap- nel. So if the bomb of the aviator has missed you, the fragments éf the shrapnel may not. It takes Turkish nerves to stand a sojourn on the pénin- eula for any length of time. The Turks do not seem to mind the combination, in réality 66 not mind it at wes iy . ie g eee ed As oe, hess i t.: : ‘ eee a zal ERE PRES, SpE ie all. Their fataliem i@ a splendid thing under such conditions. In “Kader” the : ‘ ¥ . . ™~ enumerated, then, ‘‘kader’’ willed it thus, so they reason hereabout. Of course, a bomb-proof is a good thing they admit. . But fate may reach any- where, even in a bomb-proof. So what is the use’ of a bomb-proof? Lately, however, the men have been consider- ate enough of their fortune of war to observe the progress of the yellow birds gene under the «trees. Splendid Summer Weather. Splendid summer weather prevails on the peninsula. The sun is hot enough. but the proximity of two large bodies of water keeps the breeze _ stirring. There the alternate spelis of wind to the Black Sea and wind to the Mediter- ranean. .It is cool even in the middle of thé day under the pines and cypresses, though the shade of the latter is scant thing and to keep in it one must keep shifting every few minutes. The slender cypress of these parts serves better as the column of a sundial than a parasol. The pine is better, and in addition has the admirable quality of permitting the person resting under its fragrant roof to watch the aeroplanes properly, or at least make sure that the bumming noise is not merely that of an industrious little bumble bee instead of an aeroplane—all of which tends tc make life_on the peninsula less unat- tractive. But nature does not mind a few scars. In the pine brakes the aromatic rosin floors and the needles emit their pungent fragrance at the coaxing of a warm sun. On the crest of the hills and against the gentler slopes, yellow wheatfields imitate the blue waters of the Dardanélles and the Aegean is show- ing waves under the impulse of the breéze. Cypresses sway and high as heretofore, the birds sing and the grass- hoppers chirp—all tokens that nature at least, is in sfatus quo. There are many nightingales on the peninsula—when the sun has set they begin their songs, generally cut short by a rénewal of the fighting. Every night there is fighting with ma- chine guns, rifle, bayonet, knife, hand grenade and life destroying chemicals. Now and then somebody springs a mine bésidés. The noise of this sort of bat- tle is not particularly great even at short distances from the two arenas. It moves over the ancient hills softly— spasmodically. The dull and equidistant raps,of the machine guns are followed by the sharp and regular cracks of he rifles, while exploding hand grenades punctuate as it were, the sentences of the paragraph of history that is being written. Thus passés the night and at cock’s crow peace comes and lingers until the man in the conning tower can read his map and establish angles and degrees for his large calibers. wa S RESPITE 30 MINUTES EFORE HE I$ TO BE HANGED Writ of Habeas Corpus Stays Execn- tion of Texan Whe Killed Railroad Official.

HAS DISCOURAGING EFFECT IN LONDON LT Press Says Little Ally’s Failure ib Make Concession to Bulgaria Is Mistake. ITS COURAGE ADMIRED pees Closing of Discussion Between Nish and Sofia Would Be “Unfortunate in Extreme.” By Associated Press LONDON, Aug. 12.—The Balkan sit- vation is featured by the morning pa- pers both in their news columns and editorially. Servia's unwillingness to cede tetritory claimed by Bulgaria, which wil] be necessary to insure active co-operation by Bulgaria on the side of the allies, has had a diccouraging effect. “These little states,”” says the Graphic, “are much more concerned with their own quarrels than with the sigantic struggle between the Teutonic Powers and the allies. They are so intent on quarreling that they refuse to take joint action against a common peri.” After ekpressing profound admiration for the courage of the Servians, the Ex- press says: “They will be ill-advised tf they allow any exaggerated care for their self-es- teem to hinder a settiement with Bul- garia which must materially hasten the end of the war. The fall of Constantl- nople means the breaking up of the Austro-Hungarian empire.” The Mail expresses the hope that the meeting of the Servian Parliament Mon- day will show that the present answer is not final, but says that, in view of the local enmities and dissensions in the Balkans, it would be over-sanguine to expect any immediate development. “Both political and strategic consid- eration,’’ says the Daily News; ‘‘make Bulgaria the deciding factor in the Bal- kan situation and the closing of the dis- cussion between Nish and Sofia would be unfortunate in the extreme.” Rome Thinks Seéervia Will Demand Fixed Sum fer Cessions. PARIS, Aug. 12.—A dispatch to the Journal des Debats from Rome, says: “The general opinion here is that Ser- yia will answer the communication of the Quadruple Entente Powers by offer- ing to cede territory for a fixed sum, in order to avoid responsibility for the failure of the negotiations with the Bal- kan States regarding their participatioa in the war. It is difficult to forecast the decision of Bulgaria, for Greece apparently is refusing to make any con- cessions to Bulgaria.”’ German Communication With Turkey Imperative, ventlow Says. AMSTERDAM?" Aug. 12.—Diséussinig the Balkan situation in the Tages Zeitung of Berlin, Count Réventlow declared that Germany must cut her way through to Constantinople and make the new triple alliance a reality. “The demand for direct communica- tion between Hungary and Turkéy,”’ ne writes, “has found expressién more and more energetically in the last few months. Among the securities which the triple alliance needs, and must ob- tain, is permanent security of the poflit- ical, economic and military link be- tween Constantinople and Berlin and Vienna. The alliance can develop full strength and highest effect only when the allied powers possess assured com- munication.

LONDON. A ug. TS. —Purehase by Eng- land of the entire cotton crop of the United States to prevent any from fall- ing into Germany's hards to be used im the manufaeture of high explosives, is the stupendous war measure just pro- posed by Lord Beresford. This startling solution of a serious problem .which just now is engaging English statesmen was made in 4 let- ter read last night at a meeting held here to umpress upon the Government the necessity of declaring cotton ¢on- traband of war. Lord Beresford suz- gested that the British Government re- sei the American cotton crep, even if at a lose At the meeting Sir William Ramsay, the eminent scientist declared cotton was the only substance required for the manufacture of munitioas with which the Germans could not supply them- selves. He said no chemical products can take the place of cotton im pro- pulsive amrmaunition and that emmun!- tion made from used cotton is not as effective a# that made from unused cotton. | An inspired statement published in most of the newspapers depreceating the agitation to make cotton contraband and intimating that negotians with the United States on this subject were pro- ceeding had the effect of lessening in- Sir Charlies Marcara, president of the cotton spinners, said that in edvance }o? the meeting that he had no doubt the manufacturers of explosives had cen- sumed a large part of the cotton sur- plus created by the wer and added: “We must utilize our command of the highways of the sea both practically and diplomatically to prevent cotton reach- ing enemy countries while, at the same ‘time. acting fairly tm the intePests of neutral countries.” Sir William, who seconded a resolu- tion, which was passed, demanding that cotton be declared contraband, agserte<! ithat while substitutes for cotton could be used in making nitrocellulose, none of them had what was called the “bal- lastic power” of cotton and if anything else were used by the Germans it would necessitate enlarging the ehambers of their guns and altering the sights of their rifles, an expedient which not even Germany could be prepared to adopt in the course of a great war. Cetten Getting to Germany. He declared that cotton was going |inte Germany by devious routes. It waz eold, he said, to Dutch and Swedish companies under a guarantees that it would not be sold to Germany or Aus- tria. While technically thie guarantee was not violated, Sir Willlam contended it was in reality a subterfuge, for the Dutch and Swedish consignees sold the shipments to Swiss eompanies, who in turn sold them to Great Britain's ad- versaries. The estimate was made by Sir William that 1000 tons of cotton are used every day of the war and he protested that’ it was grossly Onfair to English soldiers and their allies that Great Britain should continue to supply Germany with this commodity. , ‘Had cotton been stopped at the be- ginning of the war,'' he said, “we might reasonably expect to see the war near- ing an end.” “Cotton is still entering Germany,” he udded. “She might just as well be al- lowed to import shells.

LUNTEER ARMY PLAN A FAILURE Makes “Fighting Talk” to Busi- ness Men in Training Camp at Plattsburg, N. Y. De nem FORCE OF 200,000 NEEDED “Neutrality Out of Question,” Says Robert Bacon, Once Ambassador to France. Special to the Post-Dispatch. PLATTSBURG, N. Y., Aug. 12.—Ma- jor-General Leonard Wood of the United States army told the 1100 busi- ness men gathered in the military training camp near here, yesterday, that the volunteer system in this coun- try was a failure; that the country neéded a standing army of 200,000 men; that the country could not depend upon, . ‘“ynknown people” for its defenders and that it was for the business men ‘ such as were assembled here to see that the proper legislation was passed to overcome the unpreparedness that the General evidently had in mind. It was ‘‘fighting talk’’ that Gen. Wood gave the men in camp. He seemed ‘thoroughly in earnest and there was nothing of the jingo in his manner, It was straight from the shoulder, unex- purgated war talk, with‘a little slap at William J. Bryan and the other paci- ' fists and a bitter denunciation of those who seemed to think that armies were ‘ /°* brought into being over night. | The men who are gathered here to take a month's training in soldiering are ; business men and they are learning : . their new business rapidly. Ostensibly, at least, the camp is a peace camp and it has been stated time and again that its organization was not in any way due to our present international re- lations. However that may be, it: is true that Gen. Wood, Capt. Halsted Dorey and Private Robert Bacon, once United States Ambassador to France, and former Assistant Secretafy of State, all sounded today a decidedly pessimistic note with war as their topic and the belief in war as their theme. Gen. Wood addressed the “students” after mess. The men, nearly the whole 1100 of them, were gathered on what Ought to be called the parade grounds, ~but isn’t. They sat around in a great circle and listened. Applauding now 3 and then and laughing occasionally, f ae they took what the General had to say -very seriously. “Perfectly Asinine Statement.” “T want to say a word to you regard- / ing our method of raising an army and the fallacies of it,” said Gen. Wood. “The perfectly asinine statement has been made that we can raise a million men between sunset and sunrise. This assembly of you men here at this camp ee eta oe CCI ae PON en: —_— ~ ‘ig an answer to that sort of foolish talk.”’ When it was seen by the business men | in what direction the General's remarks . were taking, the ‘‘recruits’’ pricked up ee their ears. 2 “There are many amiable old ladies,” | continued the General, ‘‘who think that you have responded to the call of th wild and that that is all that this as- semblage means. Personally, I hope. that it means the beginning of the re- sponse of as many males as we have left. “The systém of volunteers has always been a failure. Gen. Washington warned us, earnestly, even in his day, against _ depending upon volunteers for our na- _ tional defense. It might have been well enough in his day to depend to a very large extent upon volunteers, for the ocean then meant isolation for us. But now, when the ocean is only five days wide, it is instead of a means of isola- tion a ready means of access."’ : “The nations of whose actions we are apprehensive are prepared. The nations who are coming to us are ready. We can take care of the little ones in our own good time, although we may be a ‘bit slow in getting to them (laughter), but, returning to the question of arma- ment, I would’ point out -to you that ‘We never got a full quota of volunteers in the Spanish-American war: both the Confederates and the United States Gov- ernment were forced to resort to the’ draft system in 1862 and today we can- not depend for our defense upon the good will of the unknown people who are coming tc us from everywhere.

I sincely hope that this idea, as exermplified by this camp, will make a striking impression all through the country. I fear that the full sig- nificance of the situation has not struck us yet, or we would at least have heard of some legislation aimed to rectify the conditions. Lord Roberts’ Prophecy. “Field Marshal Lord Roberts of En- gland, much mere than a year ago, warned his country of its unprepared- ness. He stated, in almost so many words, that the day would come when England would realize that it was not ready for the war it would eventually have to participate in. The day he died he said that the day he had spoken of had come, and his prophecy had been fulfilled. What Lord Roberts said of England is true today of America. “My idea is that we in this country do not want to look for trouble. At the same time I think we should take a stand and let the world know what our attitude is. In the present conflict we should take some position, for neutral- ity is out of the question; it is impos- sible. “We cannot accept the assurances of nations ‘whose own people tell us that they will not be bound by any treaties if emergencies of war arise which, to their minds, necessitate the violation of those treaties.”’ Missouri Gets $5000 Less From Gov- ernment for National Guard.

In preparation for possible disorders further American forces were landed to- day from the warships in the harbor. The men brought with them field pieces and machine guns and together with the forces already on shore began pa- trolling the streets of the city. In several sections of the city barri- cades formed with sacks of sand were erected to serve as breastworks in case of street fighting. Buenos Aires Latin-Americans Criti- cise Larding Troops in Haiti. BUENOS AIRES, Argentina, Aug. 12.— The Latin-American Association of Buenos Aires adopted today a resolution regretting the ambitions of certain party leaders in some Latin-American repub- lics who seem to be interested in the idea of intervention in Mexico. “The présent general situation is un- fortunate,’’ the resolution says, “and is serving as a pretext for interventions which cannot be accepted.”’ The debarking of foreign troops in Haiti is criticised and the association de- clares it would view with disfavor in- tervention in Mexico. JEWS IN GERMANY APPEAL TO J, $, AGAINST MUNITION SALE “Thou Givest Iron for Gold, Death for Life,” Says Communication Drafted by Rabbi. {MEXICAN RAIDERS SAID TO BE SEEKING TEXAS TERRITORY Declared to Be Operating Under the “Plan of San Diego.”’ By Associated Press, BROWNSVILLE, Tex., Aug. 12.—Ac- tion by the Federal Government in re- sponse to the appeal to President Wil- son made by Gov. Ferguson of Texas, who asked for an increase of troops in the Lower Rio Grande Valley, was awaited today by officials who so far have not been successful in préventing the depredations of Mexican ranch raid- ers, who have caused the deaths of nearly a score of persons in this sec- tion. Gov. Ferguson, in his appeal, de- clared the situation was perilous, and was doubtful of the ability of the State forces and local officers to maintain control. Citizens of Brownsville and other bor- der cities do not agree with Gen. Fun- ston that the troubles were due to po- litical feuds in this section and pro- tests against his statements continue to reach here. “Plan of San Diego.” Considerable evidence is brought for- ward that the raiders are organized into several bands, working under the plan of San Diego, a movement started a year ago at San Diego, Tex., where resolutions were passed declaring for the wresting from the United States of a strip of territory along the border to be added to Mexico. While the situation was expected to be partly relieved by the arrival in this section of the Third Battalion, Ninth Infantry, sent from Laredo yesterday, expressions of officials generally were that it would require more soldiers to suppress the movement. The zone of operations of the raiders was widened to a-large extent in the last 24 hours, although few reports of depredations have reached here. In Clash North of Browneville. The latest meeting-of the raiders with troops was reported from Katherine, Wallacy County, 80 miles north of Brownsville, where a band of 30 or more Mexicans attempted a daring raid on the one store of the town. They were frustrated by a dozen United States soldiers stationed in the store, who fired on the bandits, wounding two, it was believed. Three more Mexican outlaws were today added to the list of killed in skirmishes near Mercedes, Hidalgo Coun- ty. It was not reported whether sol- diers, county officers or rangers were in the fight. Officers have adopted a policy of refusing to give details of fighting in which they are: concerned. This is said to account for the lack of confirmation of a report that eight other Mexican raiders were killed in Hidalgo County since Friday. E. P. Naffarette, Carranza commander at Matamoras, denied today that 1000 of his men would enter Texas to incite uprisings against the Americans, and gave for his reason that he has had only (00 men between Aldamus and the mouth of the Rio Grande. He charges that the brigandage in Texas is caused by Huerta followers in anticipation of Car- ranza’s recognition by the United States, and expresses his willingness to c0-oper- ate with American authorities in cap- turing and returning to. the United States any bandits who may cross into Mexico. Three companies of United States troops from Laredo reached Brownsville this morning, the fourth company of the battalion having been detoured at Kingsville. _—— Strengthening of Border Force Would Take All the Regular Troops, WASHINGTON, Aug. 12.—War Depart- inent officials today awaited word from Major-General Funston as to whether he needed additional troops along the border to deal with the Mexican raiders. Further strengthening of the border forces would take virtually all available regular troops in the country. There are said to be 12,000 men available for that purpose. Gen. Funston has ready on the border and at Texas City about 17,000 troops. The American trooper killed near Mercedes, Tex., last Tuesday night in a battle with raiders, was Private Leo C. Windhaus, Troop C, Twelfth Cavalry, according to a report today from Gen. Funston. Windhaus’ home was in Evansville, Ind. It was in the Mercedes skirmish that a flag was captured bearing the words “Army of Liberty of Mexico and Tex- os.'" A hand bill was also found read- ing: ‘Mexicans, today we will accom- Plish a sacred debt.

By Assoctated Press. . PETROGRAD, Aug. 12.—The Novo Vremya, confirming reports that peace overtures were made to Russia by Ger- many, says Germany offered Russia Ga- licia and the Dardanelles with a guar- antee of the integrity of all Russian frontiers, stipulating that Russia should not oppose the cession of Egypt to Tur- key nor Interfere with Germany’s free hand in making peace with Russia's allies. The Novo Fremya, discussing the the- ory that Petrograd is the real objective of the German offensive, says: “There ix an enormous difference between the war of 1812 and the present conflict. The Germans are hurling against Russia the equivalent to seven such invasions as that of Napoleon and supported py the latest technical appliances, whereas in 1812 the Russian army in the latter re- spect was fully on a par with the French. ‘ihe Germans are infinitely better posted as to the position of Russia than Napoleon, ard they are incapable of regarding Moscow as the key to the empire. They know that Petrograd is the political center and it is on!ty half as far from Riga as Moscow. It is only a night’s rai:-way Journey between Riga and Petrograd, and the distance of 250 miles over good roads and two lines of railway does not offer insuperable dif- ficulties. This is no second war of 1812, but something far more serious.”’ | The Rech advises the population of Petrograd that air raids on the capital are likely in che near future and that a hostile cavalry force may possibly get near the capital. It says, however, that there is ne fear of anything fur- ther at present. German Interests Said to Want to Retain Control Over Belgium. PARIS, Aug. 12.—What purports to be the text of a confidential memorandum sent to the imperial German Chancellor —Dr. von Bethmann-Hollweg—on May 20 by representatives of German manufac- turing and agricultural associations, is published by the Temps. The memoran- dum, according to the newspapers, cov- ers financial, territorial, industrial and military concessions to be demanded of the entente allies as Germany’s terms for peace and to insure the development of a greater Germany. It is signed by the following men, who are prominent in the life of the German empire: Dr. Roesicke of the Agrarian League, Va- chorst von Wente of the German Peas- ant League, Baron von Twicke! of the Association of Westphalian Peasants, Herr Rouger of the Central Germany Manufacturers’ League, Herr Friedrichs of the Manufacturers’ League and Prof. Eberle of the Union of the Middle Classes of the Empire. The memorandum, after calling for peace terms which would insure the development of greater Germany and ‘guarantee an amelioration of the bases of the German empire,” says: “A peace which has not these results will render new struggles inevitable at an early date, but with the chances much less favorable for Germany.”’ Referring to Belgium, it says: ‘“Be- cause it is necessary to assure our cred- it on the sea and the future military and economic situation with respect to England, because Belgian territory, so economically important is closely linked with our principal industrial territory, Belgium should be from monetary, to the legislation of the empire. Its railroads and waterways should be most closely linked with our communi- cations.”’ GIRL’S CUSTODY IN DISPUTE Mother Has Her Taken to Home of Detention Pending Decision. Marianna Selleck, 15-year-old daugh- ter of wllroy V. Selleck, a lawyer, was taken to the house of detention las* night at the request of her mother, Mrs. Hazel L. Selleck, pending deter- mination of the question of the legal custody of the girl. Mrs. Selleck told the police she was awarded the custody of the girl 10 years ago in the Circuit Court. Recently the girl was brought to St. Louis by her father from California, where she had been with her mother. He placed her in the home of Mrs. H. D.

COUGHLIN, RIE KEHOE LAST YEAR'S FUND FOR BABIES CAN BE PASSED BY SEPT. | It Means Hard Work by Regu- lar Army and Reserve Corps of Pure Milk League. One year ago today the Post-Dis- patch Pure Milk and Free Ice Fund totaled $3163.68. Today it is $2391.89. The difference against this season 1s $771.79. Ten days ago the difference was about $1200. There has been splendid progress during, this period, the recovery amount- ing to ‘between $400 and $500. Continuing that same measure of auvance, the cur- rent season will, by Sept. 1, show at least as large a sum devoted to the cause of the tenement district babies as did last, with perhaps something to the advantage of this one. That wvuuld be an achievement by the boys and girls of the main relief army, reinforced by the Reserve Corps of parents and other matured people, to contemplate with pride and satisfaction. It is not for the mere satisfaction of having a great sum raised, even for so appealing a cause as that of saving the lives of neédy babies, that the Post- Dispatch has urged, and continues to urge, activity in the campaign. It is because the Post-Dispatch knows, as part of the machinery through which the pure milk and free ice reach the babies,’ that the needs are widespread, and, in many in- stances, vitally urgent. Close touch with the St. Louis Pure Milk Commis- sion and the Free Iee and Diet Circle of King’s Daughters is maintained, and from many quarters appeals come direct from mothers and others’ especially concerned over the welfare of little ones who are uninformed as to the course to pursue to obtain the essential articles. There is a great deal yet to be ac- complished in the way of building the Fund to provide with fullness for the requirements certain to exist until well along in October. Within a few wees the opening of the schools will severely handicap the young people in that un- dertaking. To this end the grown people of the community are invited to constitute themselves a Reserve Corps, to ‘take to themselves the privilege of being a part of the force striving to save to parents and the nation the young lives which are going through a critical period.

It is announced that the new con- tract into which the Hall Switch and Signal Co. has entered for the manu-. acture of shrapnel for the allies is the most favorable yet placed with that company, and also one of the best re- ceived by the American railway equip- ment companies, inasmuch as it calls for the manufacture of the entire shrap- nel, with the exception of the fuse and the charge. ~- In that respect the order ts similar to some of those placed with Canadian companies, including the National Steel Car Co. Two other contracts placed with the company in recent weeks called for the manufacture of shrapnel parts. Work on these contracts has already begun. The new order calis for 1,000,000 shells. In the wide variety of the eoders from abroad which have reached the Pressed Steel Car Co., there have been included box cars and hoppers, car building tools and machinery for Russia, steel pon- toons for bridges for Belgium, steel ties Greece, which, in times of peace, would probably have been supplied by Belgium or Germany, and shell -forging» for British and French consignment. The operations of the company are now past the 90 per cent capacity Mark and -hould reach % per cent next month. The car orders from Russia alone amount to $15,000,000. When de- livery of the cars was begun .a few months ago, at Viadivostok, for assem- bling in the shops in that port, there was also delivered a heavy consignment of car building tools.

Now, in front of the cafes, in the parks and particularly on the trams and trains bound countryward, gay par- ties of artists in earth-stained regimen- tals and models in their bravest best. celebrate the respite from fighting that the War Department has granted. There is something odd in the sight of a young soldier, a girl on his arm and a paint box instead of a knapsack strapped on his back, off for a joyous day, after 50 many months of the grim work of aeath. On the opposite bank of the Seine, on the heights of Montmartre, the scene created by the temporary home-coming of so many of the country’s soldiers is different, althovgh no less animated. Here, many of the ‘“‘permissionaires,” as the soldiers on leave are called, are seeing Paris for the first time. Many of the country, inhabitants of small, pro- vincial towns, whose means never per- mitted them to visit Paris, seized the opportunity on their way back from the front to pass a day or two in the city. Sometimes their wives and families meet them in the capital, and together they make a pilgrirrage to the points of in- terest of the ancient city. It is the time for many French people to see France first. Churches Most Frequented. The churches seem to be the most frequented of historic spots visited by these soldiers 0: vacation. Notre Dame, the Madeleine, the new building of the Church of the Sacred Heart of Jesus on the top of Montmartre, overlooking not Paris alone but the whole Seine valley, are crowded from early morning until darhness by long, shuffling lines of uni- formed sightseers. Especially is this true of the Church of the Sacred Heart. So recently ccmpleted that even thou- sands of Parisians have not yet visited it, the new cathedral is a point of inter- est not only because of its rare, aethe- rial beauty, but also because of the commanding rosition it occupies, whence a magic-carpet view of the city may be obtained. Within jthe darkened ‘ basilica ter. is a flame of. yellow stars of candlelight. Here come wives, sweethearts and mothers of the men in the trenches to burn waxen cfferings for the safety of thei- loved ones. To the right of the altar, behind the chancel rail Langs a banner upon which is embroidered the ‘egend: “Sacred Heart of Jesus, Save France"’ Before the fire of the candles and the silsnt altar and the chancel and back in the shadows of the church’, iofty pillars, all day long there are sol- diers kneeling in prayer. BOY, 4, RUN OVER BY FREIGHT. CAR, DIES AT HOSPITAL Both Legs Are Cut and Mangled and _ Surgeons Are Amputating Them When Death Came. L, Calderona, 4-year-ol.l son of James Calderona, a laborer living in the rear of 615 Franklin avenue, was run over by a freight car on which he tried to climb when it was moving yesterday afternoon at the foot of Locust street. The boy had gone there with his 13- year-old brother to sell papers to steam- beat excursionists. He died on the op- erating table at the city hospital. His legs were cut anc mangled and surgeons were amputating them when he died. Te REPUDIATES CONFESSION Bank Teller at Cedar Rapids, Ie., Now Denies Taking $20,070. CEDAR RAPIDS, Io., Aug. 12.—Leo Perrin, paying teller of the Cedar Rap- ids National Bank, who, bank officials and detectives announced, had confessed taking $20,070 of the bank’s funds, last night repudiated his confession. He is said to have told Cashier Kent C. Fer- man and a detective that he had bor- rowed the $8000 found in a sofa pillow in his mother’s home, from a friend in Chicago, when fearing arrest for the theft from the bank. Perrin decinres he is “suffering for another.’’ Perrin’s prosecution rests with his bonding company, the local representa- tives of which said the case, in all prob- ability, would be dropped if complete restitution was made.

LONDON, Aug. 12.—At the meeting cafled for «the purpose of urging the Government to declare cotton contra- band, a letter was read from Lord Charles Beresford, in which he said: “On the 6th of April last I wrote to the Prime Minister on various matters connected with the war, showing how inefficiency, brought about by want of organization and forethought, was caus- ing the loss of invaluable Ives. I fur- ther stated that the cause of the dis- asters were all avoidable, and that men’s —_ lives were being sacrificed through crim- inal negligence. “If the warning advice tendered had been acted upon the Lusitania would not have been lost. I have it in my power to prove that this statement is a fact, when the proper time comes.” Negro Girl Grabs Man’s Wallet.

His Advice Follewed. Auditor Gordon followed his advice, taking from the public schools $514,503, which they would have received and turning that amount into the general revenue fund. He thus overcame a $400,000 deficit in the State Tréasury which otherwise would have confronted be met, July 1. After announcing that he would look do nothing about it, Supt. Gass finally the fees in question. After the conference with the Attor- told a Post-Dispatch reporter that noth- ing would be injected into his suft thet might impair its efficiency. “The question at issue,”’ he said, ‘‘i whether the fees collected for beer, oil and grain inspection, and which have heretofore been considered ‘ordinary’ revenues, have suddenly become ‘ex- traordinary’ revenues, and thus, whether the public schools are to be deprived of more than $500,000.’’ Would Include Other Fees. Assistant Attorney General Ruther- ford said he believed all the ‘‘extraordi- nary’’ fees that the state collected should be included in the suit, so that the court could pass on all of them at one time. “When we get this case decided,’’ he said, “somebody will bob up and claim that the school fund ought to get its share of all these other fees.” The Legislature has provided that the automobile registration fees shall constitute the good road fund and that the receipts of the labor contracts and the binding twine plant at the peniten- tiary shall be a part of the maintenance fund for that institution.

NEW YORK, Aug. § 12.—William Smythe, an actor, and Toby Claude, an English music hall favorite, with whom he toured the United States last season, have disappeared suddenly from their apartment here with Smythe’s daughter, Kathleen, 5 years old, and are supposed to have taken passage for Bordeaux. Smythe was to have appeared in the office of attorneys for his wife, Marie Nevins Smythe, last Saturday and surrender possession of the child to her in response to an order from .Justice Ford. Mrs. Smythe, who also is an actress and is about to go on the stage, waited into the child was to be placed, until it was apparent. that Smythe ‘would not appear. Investiga- tion then revealed that Smythe and Miss Claude had suddenly packed their belongings and had been driven away fron. their apartment in an automobile In bringing suit for possession of the child, Mrs. Smythe based her action principally upon her husband's attentions t« Miss Claude and at the same time introduced a remarkable letter written te ner by her rival. It is as follows: I am awfully sorry if I have hurt you, because I want nobody else’s man. I never would have listened tt» Lim If I had known that you cared about him. He wears a ring with my name en- graved in it, and all the things he wears I gave him. His watch chain, cigarette case, wrist watch, cigar cutter, gold sovereign case: in fact, al! the things he has in that line and the brushes which he left at your house on Sunday. I bought your baby’s little blue chain and locket and her lace collar and her waterproof things; he did net object to that. If you like I will see and tell you how sorry I am to have caused you any trouble. Of course I am not the only wom- an, but am the only one who really cared for him, I think. A letter writen by Smythe to his wife when in England has been made public. It was sent while the actor is alleged to have been devoting himself to Miss Claude, though this was at the time unknown to Mrs. Smythe. The letter is addressed to ‘‘My Qwn Dearest Darling Wife,” and concludes: “So write me at once what you think, and kiss Kathleen a million times for me and two million for yourself. I am always yours, Billy.’’ whose custody JOHN BAUMANN SAFE CO. Open Again for Business With a much larger stock of new and secondhand safes at Fourth and St. Charles street (the old location).

Soukhomlinoff, former Russian Minister of War, and others, in connec- tion with the shortage of munitions which has handicapped the Russian army. The resignation of Gen. Soukhomlinofft ew announced on June 26.

Dawson, former Attorney-General, for services rendered the receivers in the long litigation, over the control of the gas properties. S. M. Brewster, Attorney-General, wrote an opinion to Gov. Capper today that he could find no way by which the State could recover the fees paid 10 Dawson or the other attorneys wh? were acting as assistant. Attorney-Gen- erals. The Attorney-General held that the same rule of law applied to Kansas in this case as was determined in the Mis- souri suit, by which the State attempt- ed to recover from the railroads the ex- cess passenger fare collected by the roads while the 2-cent fare law was in litigation. The State is prohibited from acting for others in the collection of debts. The Governor was informed that the creditors of the Kansas Natural Gas Co. could have stopped the payment o* the big fees if they had so desired, as they could have brought an appeal to the Supreme Court on the ground that the fees were too high. But this was not done and the time limit has al- ready expired. In regard to the $5000 fee paid to Daw- son in th> anti-trust suit, the Attorney- General held that the law specially gave this fee to the Attorney-General for successfully prosecuting the anti-trust suit and the fees assessed as part of the punishment.

INDEPENDENCE, Kan., Aug. 12.— Judge Fiannelly of the Montgomery County District» Court today decided that his court has jurisdiction over tho action of the State Utilities Commission in fixing the price of gas for the Kansas Natural Gas Co. The case grew out of a recent order of the Utilities Commission increasing the price of gas from 25 cents to 28 cents a thousand feet. The receivers for the Kansas Natural Gas Co. secured from Judge Filannelly a temporary in- junction restraining the commission from putting the increase into effect. There- upon the commission filed a petition alleging that Judge Fliannelly’s court had no jurisdiction. STEAMBOAT INSPECTION RULES ORDERED CHANGED BY REDFIELD New Regulations Follow Inquiry Into Sinking of the Eastland at Chicago. WASHINGTON, Aug. 12.—Changes in the rules and regulations of the steam- Loat inspection service and the appoint- ment of a special committee to recom- mend steps for safeguarding passenger traffic on the Great Lakes, have been ordered by Secretary Redfield of the De- partment of Commerce, as a result of his investigation of the BHastland dis- aster at Chicago. New regulation will be based upon the report of the board of the inquiry, which vith Secretary Redfield conducted the luvestigation and recommended the fol- lowing: “Increases in passenger-carrying per- mits must be issued by inspectors only after personal inspection of the vessel, cf which inspection a written record shall be made. “All inspectors are required to have owners make ‘inclining tests’ of vessels whose stability they have any reason to question under the supervision of naval architects provided by the Department of Commer :e.’’ WOMAN CHASED A BLOCK AND ARRESTED ON THEFT CHARGE Department Store Detective Says Pianist Took Pair of Brown Stock- inge—She Denies It. Mrs. Geraldine’ Walters, 30 years old, @ pianist and chorus girl, living at the New Regent Hotel, Fourteenth and Chestnut streets, was arrested yester- day afternoon at Broadway and Olive street by a traffic policeman, after Miss Nora Chandler, house detective at the Famous & Barr store, had chased her a block, on a charge of stealing a pair’ of brown stockings. A superintendent at the store said Mrs. Walters was arrested two weeks ago on a charge of shoplifting, but that the store refused to prosecute her be- cause of her story that she was desti- tute and her husband was sick. She told the police this morning that yesterday she bought a pair of stock- ings and a shirt waist, and was leaving the store to board a train for Peoria, Ill, where, she said, her husband was on the vaudeville stage. She said she did not know Miss Chandler was pursu- ing her until the policeman stopped her at Broadway. LEAP FROM TRAIN IS FATAL Coroner's Jury Unable to Learn Cause for Belleville Man’s Action.

CONSTANTINOPLE, Aug. 9, via Ber- lin (by wireless to Sayville), Aug. 12.— “The entente: allies have lost the sup- port of that army which they intended to use to,crush the forces of the cen- tral Powers,” said Enver Pasha, the Turkish Minister of War, in an inter. view today with a correspondent of the Associated Press, alluding to the recen.. fighting in Poland. “I realize that much work yet r2- mains to be done,”’ continued the War Minister, ‘‘but with the Russian army no longer a terrible offensive force, Tur- key and her allies have nothing to fear. *‘My opinion is that all talk about reor: ganizing the Russian army is about on a par with the speech before the Duma of the Russian War Minister, who ap- parently was unaware that Napoleon's retreat from Moscow is unlikely to be repeated by the Austro-Germans. A man who imagines such a thing possible today with aN the modern means of transportation and communication is a century behind time. “One never knows what the fortunes of war may ‘bring, but every indication now is that our side is sure to win.

Edmond Aubuchon, a laborer, 42 years old, of 1060 North Newstead avenue, tried to kill himself last night by cutting the artery in his right wrist with a razor. To avoid getting blood on the bed cloth- ing, he held his hand over a bow! which he placed on the bed. Physicians at the city hospital said that he would recover and that his failure to bleed to death was because he held his hand in such & way that his fingers pressed on the artery and checked the flow of blood. At the hospital he said that he had decided to kill himself because his wife EV me 2% ‘ had no faith in his promise that he had | reformed, after a term in the work- house for disturbing the peace of his family. He was released three days as°. Style and Good Clothes Are essential to success. St. Louls mert- chants depict the very latest in men’s fashions in Friday's Post-Dispatch.

MONG the many buzzings in the vidual championships come in. LN, Richards of the Illinois A. C., with means little to the lay mind. To the confusion was added the an- nouncement that the victor CAPTURED FIRST PLACE IN ONLY ONE OF THE 160 EVENTS decided, while Chester Fee, who finished third in the competi- tion, won first in three contests. The first idea as to the manner of de- termining the winner is that the con- testant whose average position for the 10 events is best would be the boy to cop the prize. But this is not. neces- sarily so eee That Point System. HE decathion is decided on a point basis with the world’s record as the standard. The closer to the world’s record the performer achieves, the nearer to 1000 points, or perfect, will be his score. And the poorer he performs the fewer points he is cred- ited with. Thus one wretched performance can cost an athlete enough points to nullify what would have been a winning rec- ord otherwise. It is conceivable that an ath- * Jete might win nine events by a marrow margin from one con- tender and lose the remaining event by such a wide margin of points as to cause him te lose the décathlon title. It would be a brave lad who would approve this wale face to face with the man who had just lost a championship in the manner described, however. cereci| Cam You Beat It?

BOSTON, Mass., Aug. 12.—Realizing that the Browns need a punch and pitchers, Manager Rickey today left the team and hit the bushes in search of talent. When he left directions to Act- ing Manager Austin for the final contest of the series of six with the Red Sox today, Rickey did not divulge his desti- natfon or the object of his jaunt. He said only that he would rejoin. the Browns in Cleveland Saturday, which will enable him to ‘“‘ivory hunt’’ for two days, and miss only one of the Browns’ sames, as Friday is an open date in the schedule for the Browns. Rickey clings to the belief that he needs but little to make a real ball club of the Browns. With Sisler a fixture at first base, he wants a .300 hitter to play the outfield with Shotten and Walker. A new pitcher or two of the caliber’ of Ernie Koob would help the club con- siderably. Billy Lee of Atlanta, who belongs to the Browns, and who is leading the Southern League hitters, may suppiy the needed third outfielder, but Rickey doesn't intend to rely too much on this fly chaser and will overlook no oppor- tunity to grab any other slugger who can catch fly balls and run the bases. Six Young Pitchers Signed. A half dozen young pitchers have already beén purchaséd, but more will be added to this Nst if Riekey sees any hurtl- ers whom he believes would add strength to the Browns. The manager has recéived word from nyeataent Hedges to spare no expense in ting any player who, in Rickey's ouielen, will help make a winner of the team. It is rumored that both the Detroit and Boston clubs madé tempting cash offers for Bill James and Barl Hamiiion, but Rickey can’t win ali games with cash, and for that reason the vids.

Dispatehes received here from Chicago this morning state that Johnny Coulon left today for the Canadian woods, where he will remain until Oct.. 15, con- ditioning. himself to fight Kid Williams for the bantamweight championship of the world. Before he left Coulon told a Post-Dis- atch re regenters at Chicago fhat he: ad r ved a challenge from ihiams and that he had accepted, but that the date and city where it is to be staged had not been decided on. Coulon stated that he now weighs 117 A ree which is heavier than he ever éfore scaled. Williams, whose real name Gutenko and who was born in Copen- gen, Dec. 5, years ago, won the title from Coulon a year ago last June. Since that time Williams has fought steadily, even soing £ class out of his way to meét Johnny Kilbane, the feath- erweight title holder, in a short contest at Philadelphia. Coulon ia only 26 years old, but has been in the ring since he was 15 or 16 years old, as an amateur and profes- sional. An attack of acute stomach trouble kept him from fighting often, prier to his meeting with Williams. Williams, recently, was knocked down twice in his bout with a Philadelphia fighter named Louisiana. Kelly and Delmont Again. Brookiyn Tompiy Sullivan of thé Fu- ture City A.

Rumbold of Battery A, discussing else- where on this page our unpreparedness for de- fense, directs attention to the special need of trained officers for branches of military service and field artillery.

But, of course, the great advantage is that thousands of new men are brought to bear on the unequal contest from their side.

And it would show Miss Dorothy who's the better man.” “I can’t thrash a fellow for taking my girl away,” said Ned. “It’s up to me to keep her.”’ | | “That's true,” I answered, “but thrash him on general principles, Ned.” ‘‘What’s that?’ asked Ned; and I tried to explain. I painted Phillips’ charac- ter as it appeared to me. “Age you go- ing to let Miss Dorothy’s heart get bro- ken?” I inquired. “Of course you'll win her back afterward. But is the game worth the candle, looking at it from the woman's viewpoint?’ “No, sir,’’ said Ned, and I knew he had made up his mind. The Two Men Fight.

I don’t know what he said, but I heard Phillips’ snort of. contempt. “Can you fight?” Ned demanded next. “T can whip a dozen like you,” Phil- lips retorted. / “Then I’m going to thrash you on general principles,” said Ned, and I could hardly keep from clapping my hands and crying “bravo!” Miss Dorothy had hardly recovered from her surprise when the two were at it, hammer and tongs. I had not expected Phillips to put up much of a fight, but it was'a case of Ned doing his best to stop Phil- lipps’ rushes. After the first minute “| Phillips khocked Ned down, and, when he got up Phillips let him have it again. Ned didn't get home more than ‘once, and in the end Ned was stretched. out upon the ground, half unconscious. It had been Phillips from beginning to end, and he hand- led Ris’ fists in a very creditable way. I suppose it was fear of the public- ity, but all the while the girl stooc. there like a statue, and never moved or spoke. Nobody saw me, and I felt ‘pretty badly to see how my plot had miscarried. Because my idea had been to show the girl what a coward Phillips was, and, instead, it was Ned who got the thrashing. ‘Had enough?’ sneered Phillips, standing over Ned. Ned groaned; xe couldn’t raise himself from the ground. “If this brute has had his lesson, let ous continue our walk, Miss Raines,”” sugested Phillips. An Upset of Ideas. 4 ND suddenly the girl turned on him with flashing eyes. “You brute!” she cried. “How dare'you! How dare you.fight a man weaker than yourself! Go away at onee! Do you hear me?’ She stamped her foot ‘like a fury. The next moment she was kneeling at Ned’s side, calling him all the en- |dearing terms in her vocabulary. Her arms were round him, and with her skirt she began eponging the .bruises “Forgive me, Ned,” she was sobbing. I went away then, because I real- ized I had no business there. But it seems strange to me; I had thought a woman loved strength in a man, but if Ned had beaten Phillips he would have lost her forever. It sort of upset my ideas—and at my age one doesn’t like that. Phillips departed the next morning by early train, and I imagine he won't show his face up this way in a hurry again. Dorothy and Ned are to be married in October—and I've been asked to stay on and be best man. It’s curious; I should think Ned would never want to see me again after that beating. But I suppose he con- siders ‘ail roads’ good ones that lead to Burmese shopwoman (they are nearly all women) to show you her silks.

PEE.» : HE @gn via just setting over | the wide prairie, Across its red disk could be seen a long wag- on train slowly creaking its way to the fort. At the head rode a small troop of cavalry, and behind lumbered the great mule teams and their cum- brous loads. Then back of the wagons lagged a funny figure—a thin boy sitting astride a small, white mule. Tags was the mule’s name and Tat- ters that belonging to the boy. Tags had been in the army since he was born, and Tatters was also reared in the same way, as his father, who died a year before, had been a private sta- tioned at/the fort. So Tags and Tat- ters beoime great friends. As Tags and Tatters bumped along leisurely at the end of the wagon train two officers rode by. One was speaking in an excited voice, It was the Colonel] in command. “Tt looks as if there were figures moving just beyond the fort,” the Colonel was saying. “The light is growing dim, but it would appear the Indians are coming up to} attack us at once. We had best dash into the fort at once—the women and chil- dren are in there—we will be obliged to leave the wagons at once, if we are to reach our families.” H® Colonel galloped on. In a mo- ment a shrill bugle call rang out across the prairie. A second later and the whole cavalry escort was run- ning at full speed for the fort. Across the brightness of the setting sun there came -in view a yelling mob of Indian Sandman story of a poor little soldier boy who grew up to be Commander of the fort he once saved. A. Walker. warriors, Onward they dashed, shaking their guns above their heads as they swept forward. The cavalry reached the great gate, which swung open with u% bang. Through it they swept and be- Hind them the gate clanged shut. It was #ll done so quickly that Tat- ters had not had time to understand what w&s taking place. But when the fort was closed and the wagon train left outside he understood at once that the troops had been forced to go to the rescue of the families and leave the wagons. Part) of the regular force usually at the fort was away, and it would have been impossible to defend the train and the fort, too. Tatters sat up and watched the In- dians surrounding the wagons. ‘The aqbief took the leAd and in a few mo- ments the whole train was being sent away from the fort and back over the plains, a dozen Indians at the head and as mafiy more in the rear. Tat- ters rode just behind the last wagon, for an ugly, painted redskin had him in charge, and it was impossible for him to escape now. Now, Tatters was accustomed to such experiences, yet he was much fright- ened. But he kept quiet. In about an hour they halted for supper. And a fine one the Indians had with all the good things from the wagons. HEN the moon crept out Tatters W was told to lie down on a rug under a tree, near a chief called Red Feather. So he curled up and pre- tended to be snoring. As soon as the camp was quiet he stole out to where a 01 O10 E10 30 0 0 10 OLIVE AT TENTH Unrestricted Choice of All Remaining ried, this conclusion is reached: Many girls and boys are chums or “pals” and often in this way, being constantly .in each other's company, they find their true mates. Some marry young, and others can go on “keeping company,” while years drag along, and it gets a girl nowhere; and often she finds she has missed a chance to find her lifemate and marry. Other girls live too much alone, and geldom see anyone, so they are passed by. . The girl who does not chum with boys and girls often has a better chance to get a sweetheart and keep one. Many nice young men hesitate about intruding on a girl who is so popular, and whose evenings are all planned ahead with the clique. If the admirer is @ little older than the girl and has given up going the rounds with a group, he prefers to find one girl for himself to love and marry. Naturally he can’t be interested in oth- ers. Because such a young man isn’t a gay social butterfly doesn’t mean he can’t be superior to them if he is not in their set. It’s not the cliques nor the smartness of the young people that puts them on a higher plane. It’s only so in their foolish imagination. In a way, it’s an aimless life, and of no real importance to anyone. It’s a habit—this going around in crowds or cliques. Such a state of affairs can exist for ever and @ day unless the young folks marry. It ie much better for a boy and girl meaning matrimony to try to be by themselves, to get to know each other, exchange ideas, than to be in with a crowd continually. ' Parents should think that by the time a girl is 9 she is of age to marry, and to have a mind of her own, and if their daughter cannot learn to like a “social young man” she may have more wisdom than they give her credit for. The worst of the clique custom is that a girl feels she is not free. ° Her clique claims her. If she stays away an even- ing plans become upset, and many per- sons comment. Then if she has a young man, she is not free to entertain him; she feels he must meet with approval of the crowd. Dear parents, that can never be. In ordinary cliques within cliques, you will find any outsider is “one too many” and is at a disadvantage, because they have so little in common, When a man is five years older than a girl, his ideas have changed, and if he has settled down it’s all for the best, if he breaks away from cliques. A girl should break away from her clique, meet a young man and take plenty of time to study him. She will be at home more, and so have time for callers with her parents’ ap- proval. They will get to see her point of view, provided the young man is all that can be desired, and there soon will be one less “old maid” in the world. Tdge was grazing and jumped on his back. Out across the plains rose the wind, the moon sank behind the clouds and a storm raced over the waving sea of grass. Through the roll of the thunder and flashing of the lightning the mule kept on his way, with his long, swinging plod. Tatters was wet to the skin, but thought only of getting on as fast as he could, As Tags limped into camp a wet boy tumbled off and almost fell on a sleep- ing soldier. In a moment the troops were awake, and guided by Tatters on & fresh horse, sweeping toward the In- dian camp, The Indians were still asleep when the cavalry reached their resting place, so it was but the work of a moment to capture them. . As long as Tags lived he held an hoh- ored post at the fort, while Tatters grew up to be an officer and command- ed the fort one day himself.

It seems the mouth germs can only gain a foothold where there is some roughness to cling to. Decaying food creates acids which corrode the enamel and afford the desired roughness, and the tartar af- fords the same. This being the case, it is very easy to see why clean teeth are so neces- sary. If these mouth germs do get fas- tened upon unclean teeth it is almost impossible to dislodge them, as they are provided by nature with a glue- like substance by which they attach themselves, and there they stay ani very busy they keep. Having entered the tooth through tartar and corroded enamel, they do not stop until the tooth is, as We say, decayed. The mouth, through cleaning the pol- ishing of the teeth, keeps off the growth of tartar, and dentists who have used this preventive method claim that if children’s teeth are given a fair chance they may at the age of 2% be without a single cavity, and that, if it is pos- 3 ————=- The Alaska Potato. — HE potato is Alaska’s most impor- tant crop, and, according to.a commerce report, it is a most profitable tne.

Sa Cae ee en, ep ee ge hp ils’ eal “The Jarr Family” by. “Bill” by......... : _— The Jarrs Accept Hospitalit y of the “For Revenue Only” 2. ¥, a TRE the Rangles invite us to + dinner and instead of having dinner in their own home we're going to a restaurant,” said Mrs. Jarr. “{ know how this taking dinner in a restaurant will end. It will mean that we will pay the check.” “You were present when the matter cane up,” said Mr. Jarr. “They asked us to have dinner at their house, and you said it would be such a bother for Mrs. Rangle, and suggested we all go @ine together at a restaurant.’’ “Well, I didn’t suggest that we should pay for it,” said Mrs. Jarr. “I'm sure those Rangles could do that much. We have entertained them dozens of times.” “They've entertained us, too,”’ saic ‘Mr. Jarr. “And why Mrs, Jarr. There being no reason why they shouldn't, Mr. Jarr did not answer, and Mrs. Jarr continued: ‘And don’t you be a fool and insist on paying. If the Rangles want to dine at a restaurant, let them pay the check.”’ "Don't you think the best way for us to do would be to divide the expense?’”’ asked Mr. Jarr. “No, I do,not. Nobody ever does any- thing for us,” said Mrs. Jarr, ‘and besides I'm very short this week and ![ have no money for expensive dinners in public restaurants, Let the Rangles pay for it. They suggested it.” “You suggested it,”’ said Mr. Jarr. “But they asked us to dinner at their house, and she has no girl; and she always has chicken and I’m tired of chicken,”’ said Mrs. Jarr. “Her chicken - {gs always tough and half-cooked, too!’’ “Well, we're escaping that,” replied Mr. Jarr, “so don’t get peevish.” “I do get peevish because you are such a softy and you let everybody im- pose on you!’’ cried Mrs. Jarr. “If we have to pay half the bill I don’t see what advantage there is in going out to inner with other people. When one Is afraid one will have to pay the bill One orders all the cheap dishes, and doesn’t order very much at that. Oh, well, I don’t suppose there is any use to worry. But you “mind what I say and don’t insist on paying for every- thing.”’ At this juncture Mr. and Mrs. Ran- gle joined them and the two families went downtown together. “What do the ladies want?” asked Mr. Rangle. “Ta the chicken good?” asked Mrs. Jarr of the waiter. The waiter had nothing but praise for the chicken. (He worked there, but he didn’, eat there.) “Well, I wun'’t have any,” said Mrs. Jarr. “The only person that knows how to couk chicken properly is Mrs. Rangle. You must tell me how to do it, dear! Loox at that woman over there. Just look at her!"’ Mrs, Rangle looked and tittered. “Never mind the people here,” said Mr. Jarz. “What are you going to order?” “If you were here alone you would be mincing them,” said Mrs. Jarr. “But ‘when you are with your wife and re- speciable people’’— “What do you men see in such crea- turey?”” remarked Mrs. Rangle. “I don't know, but they are the kind they seem to rrefer!’"’ said Mrs. Jarr. It icoked like @ pleasant evening—not. And Mr. Raugle suggested that they order the dinner. & debating everything on the card _ they crdered fricasseed chicken, as it _ Was about the cheapest thing. The waiter lad been misinformed. The chicken wasn't good. “There's one piece of bread left,” saia shouldn't they?’ replied Jarr, with forced gayety. “Whoever | | eats it be an old maid.” “Whoever cats the last piece will make a happy and prosperous mar- riage’ said Mrs. Rangle. And both she and Mrs. Jarr reached for it, and com- romieed by breaking it in halt. “Funny you women should be so su- -perstitious! You both are married,” said Rangle. — “We may marry again, and have bet- . ter luck mfext time,” said Mrs. Rangle, h. it was a jolly dinner party! Yes, Mr. Kangle paid the check. ’ wt that Was because it was only $4.10, Jarr said. There is nothing like go- your friends and having a good, jolly time Perfectly Safe.

Detroit Cincinnatl 4 : G ire *35= _ Save Human Life. Kill Germs and The menace of militarism, the horrors of war and the toll of death taken in all frightful accidents is as noth- ing compared to the danger of unseen deadly germs. Even in war itself the toll of human life taken out- right by the whizzing bullet, the bursting shrapnel, or the piercing steel is less than that caused by the unseen deadly germs that attack the wounded and the well alike. Human life will be lengthened and human happiness increased when we learn better to guard ourselves against the danger of the ever present germs of disease. Powdered boric is one of Nature’s most wonderful gifts to man, for it enables us, through antiseptics, to ward off the danger of infection. Owing to its wonderful antiseptic properties it can- not be too highly recommended for liberal use in the care of the person wherever and whenever exposed to the germs of disease. Pure powdered boric may be used with absolute free- dom and safety in all the natural cavities of the body. To realize how healing it is, yet how safe, we have but to recall that the physician almost always prescribes it as the principal ingredient of an eye water. The manufacture of powdered boric has been brought to such a high degree of efficiency by one con- cern that if we always remember to specify “20 Mule Team Powdered Boric” we know that we have the real article in full strength.
