WASHINGTON, May 2%.—Reversing tis previous decision, Secretary Baker @nnounced today that 116 members of a the Texas National Guard, who failed to present themselves for miister into the Federal service, will be brought to court- martial immediate'; under the present law. Baker had intended to await the sign- ing of the new militia law now before the President and proceed under its pro- visions. Secretary Baker explained his ac- tion by pointing out the difference in the enlistment oaths guardsmen are required to take under the Dick law anc the new Hay-Chamberlain bill. The Dick law requires an obligation “s Ses defend the Constitution and obey A orders of the Governor of the State tut not the order of the President. The Hay-Chamberlain act requires an oath to obey orders of both the Gov- rnor and the President. Upon recommendation of Judge Ad- vocate General Crowder the Secre- tary has decided that the alleged of- fense of the guardsmen refusing to “resent” themselves for muster was ecmmitted under the Dick law and trial should be under that law. Gen. Crowder, in a supplementary opinion, held that the Hay-Chamber- lain. act would not abolish the of- fense with which the Texans are charged as has been suggested. On this showing it will not be necessary to issue a new call for the border militia after the Hay-Chamberlain bil. is signed. - Tt was stated officially at the War Department today that Gen. Funston had never requested that the Louisi- | a, Arkansas and Oklahoma Nationa! Guard be called out for worder service aé reported. Gen. Funston asked for additional] coast artillery, but the De- partment decided it was not needed at present.

Edison for marching in “‘that fool parade’’ in New York, and emphasizes his opposition to war and preparedness. “Great military achievements in his- tory,”’ Ford said, ‘‘mean nothing to me. History is more or less bunk. It’s tradition. We don't want tradition. We want to live in the present. We've got the war fever ovér here, because they're got a war over there.

There is only one thing we need—submarines. I think we will have submarines before long that will blow this whole ship business off the world. Yes, I have been tinkering some with a submarine idea.

Peck of Grand Rapids, Mich., the young dentists’s attorney, Walter R. Deel announced this morning in open- ing the fight in the Supreme Court to suave Waite from the electric chair.

Walite’s Brother Testifies. Frank A. Waite, the dentist’s brother, was the first witness for the defense. He said that because Dr. Waite had a Jjarge head the other members of the Waite family “poked fun at him.” Frank Waite said his brother lagged on the way to school when a child and was always getting into trouble with other boys. The brother described vis- its to Waite’s apartment when he lay in a stupor from narcotics and said the dentist then talked at random and in his lucid intervals acted far differently from when normal. Cross-examined, Frank Waite said he remembered telling a physician at Bellevue Hospital there was no epilepsy, mental deficiency nor rs in the Waite family.

Almost the only testimony directly re- tating to Waite’s mental conditiorr brought out by the witnesses for the prosecution came from Mrs. Margaret Weaver Horton, who said the young dentist had confessed his love for her. but she affirmed that their relations were purely “platonic.” Mrs. Horton said Waite had spoken to her about “the man from Egypt.’” When he was in the hospital suffering from the drugs he took after the discovery of the al- leged crime, he wrote to her, she said. that the hospital guards thought him in- sane. “I think the letter said,” she testified, ‘‘that he could go to an insti- tution for a while and then get out.”’ Mrs. Horton asserted that Waite told her he killed Peck.

Although called as a witness for the State, she seemed to be much re- lieved when Walter R.

Mrs. Horton with a trace of sadness in- her voice, first told how she had met Waite last January when she was sing- ing in a New York theater. He was gentlemanly and kind to her she said, and they struck up a fast friendship.

It was shown that a negro woman was in the city hospital several days as a result of being knocked down by Borchers’ machine, but Provisional Judge Fish declared there had been ni evidence of carelessness on the jit- ney driver's part. The Provisional Judge also re- marked that Borchers had four feet of room in passing a street car that hag stopped at Beaumont and Olive streets, and that an ordinance per- mitted an autoist to pass a standing street car whe nthere is room to al- low four feet betfeen the street car and the auto. Patrolman Murray, in court as a witness for the city, complained to Assistant City Counselor Seidel that there had been no testimony pre- sented to the court as to the clear- ance for an auto at that street. The Assistant City Counselor declared that the provisional Judge, in comment- ing upon the ordinance, was misin- formed as to the number of feet men- tioned. He said the ordinance specified that there should be a six-foot clear- ance between a motionless street car and an auto before the auto is per- mitted to pass.

In the Arsa Valley, on the direct route to Vicenza, the Austrian and Ital- jans are fighting on the frontier line. Between this point and the Astico River the Italians have withdrawn from the upper basin of the Posina River, which comprises part of the Terragnol- Valley, and have concen- trated ing the Arsiero tasin which des- cends to Schio and Vicenza.

They have concentrated additional artillery, under command of Gen. Koevess, and have been attempt- ing, but without success, to cut the Italians’ rear communications for sup- plies. This advance of the Austrians has beenrendered more difficult by the destruction of bridge and roads. Italian officers estimate that be- tween the Adige and Brenta Rivers the Austrians have placed 26 batteries of guns of 12-inch, saide from many other batteries of smaller guns, and have brought from the Galician and Balkan front fresh troops to the num- ber of 18 divisions, or 360,000 men.

Waite told him, he said, that he wanted the poison to ‘kill some cats.’’ Previously Waite had said he was in- terested in the study of bacteriology and Dr. Muller had recommended a former instructor of his. Waite already had confessed that he inoculated the aged Mrs. Peck with deadly disease germs, from which she died a few weeks before her husband. When Mrs. Horton was excused from the stand Mr. Deuel asked the court to instruct the jury to disregard all testimony about Waite’s study of bac- teriology. The court so instructed the jury. Mrs. Waite began her testimony by telling of her father’s visit from Grand Rapids to New York and said that Waite suggested that Dr. Albertus A. Moore be called to see her father. ‘“*‘We-—that is, father, Dr. Waite and myself—had planned to g0 ‘to Hot Springs on a visit. Father appeared to be in very good health.” Wife on Stand Sobs, Some time after her father’s arrival here, Mrs. Waite said, he developed fainting spel!s. Waite aiready has ad- mitted that he inoculated him as well as Mrs. Peck with disease germs. The wit- ness told of an occurrence at dinner three days before Peck’s death, when Waite served her father with some oys- ters and later he remarked that the parent felt unusually drowsy. When asked if she noticed anything unusual in Waite’s manner, Mrs. Waite broke down and sobbed, but finally replied “No, only what my maid told me later.” She said her father’s condition grew gradually worse and she called in Dr. Moore several times. said her husband went out on “calls” at all times of the day and night. The night before her father died, she said, Waite gave him an egg-nogg, and Peck complained that it made him ill. Nex morning-her father was dead. Mrs. Waite temporarily gave place on the stand to Harry Ladenheim, a nurse at Bellevue Hospital, who testified that when Dr. Waite was in that institution recovering from the drugs he took, he repeatedly called for his wife and said: “Poor Clara, I hope she does not find out about the other woman.” Mrs. Waite, who was then recalled, said Waite slept on the sofa in the parlor the night before her father- died and awakened her to tell her of his death. When Dr. Moore arrived, the witness said, Dr. Waite suggested that the body be cremated. She telephoned Dr. Cornell, who advised against cremation. After the body was removed to Grand Rapids Waite was very anxious to know whether an autopsy had been ordered, said the witness. Hed Wife Make Wiill.: Mrs. Waite asserted that on the night when she and Waite arrived in Grand Rapids. Waite suggested that he would go to Detroit with Peck's body and have it cremated “so as to relieve her mind.” Mrs. Waite also said her husband was present when her father’s will ‘was made and suggested to her that she make a will also. This she did, she continued, and made Waite the oy beneficiary. Mra, Waite added that her husband | haa complained because her father had mot given her more money as a wedding present. ‘ Mrs. Waite in continuing her testimony } Waite told his wife, she testified, that he wished to put a “tonic” in Mr. Peck’s soup. Previously she swore Waite prepar:sd medicine with which she sprayed Mr. Peck's throat. Miss Hardwick testified that she lived in the home of her uncle, Dr. Jacob Cornell of Somerville, N. J., who testi- fied yesterday that he called at the Waite home the day Peck died. She testified that she sent the telegram to Percy Peck giving warning that there might have been foul play in the death eof John E. Peck, after Dr. Cornell re- that someone told her to send it. A question as to who directed her was ruled out. She was then excused. John Cuniff, a special officer attached to the District Attorney’s office, recalled to the stand, identified several medical books found in Waite’s apartment. One of them, he said, had been marked at 23 passage dealing with arsenic poison- ing. Dr. Perry Schurtz of Grand Rapids, Mich., who said he made the autopsy on Peck’s body in Grand Rapids, cor- roborated the testimony of other phy- sicians as to the presence of arsenic in the body and declared it undoubtedly had caused death. Percy Peck of Grand Rapids, son of John EB. Peck, testified that on Feb. 10 last Dr. Waite told him that his father was getting along in years and that waite would not be surprised if he lived cn'y a short time. Peck died March 12. The witness said that, immediately after Peck’s funeral, Dr. Waite asked if his wife, Clara Peck Waite, could obtain the use of her share of the Peck estate before the will was probated. Estate. Werth $1,000,000. Percy Peck declared his father’s es- tate was worth $1,000,000. The witness also told of Waite’s courtship of his sister. His mother entirely approved of ‘he marriage, but his fathér did not. ter $300 per month at the time of the wedding,’’ he continued, ‘‘to be used bv her and her husband in living expenses.”’ On one occasion Peck sen to Mrs. Waite a check for $200 instead of $390, the son said, and Waite sent the check back with a letter in which he wrote that “he was able to take care of his wife himself.”’ Later Peck sent a check for $300. A letter written by Waite to Mrs. John E. Peck in October in 1915 con- cerning ‘‘father’s financial obligations to Clara’’ was introduced. In it Waite as- serted that while Clara expected a sub- stantial settlement from her father at the time of her marriage, there was no reproach on his part, because he was able to care pe Fee his wife.

WASHINGTON, May 23.—The reported successful raid of an Italian fleet on the secret submarire bases established by Austria on the northern coast of Africa, just west of Egypt, brings to the attention of the world an almost forgotten province which was once dot- ted with magnificent cities of culture and wealth. Concerning this region, known in ancient times as Cyrenaica and corresponding very closely to the modern province or Birca, between Tripoli and Egypt, the National Geo- graphical Society, trom its headquarters in Washington, has issued the following bulletin: “Cyrenaica, whose dangerous coast line, devoid of good harbors, is said to have furnished excellent places of con- cealment for stores of food and fuel needed by Austrian submarines operat- ing in the southeastern end of the Med- iterranean, was once the seat of culture of one of the most prosperous Greek colonies of the South. Today this ter. ritory, with an areal equal to that of Scotland, supports a population of only 250,000, many of whom are nomads. “Cyrene, capital of the ancient prov- ince, is reputed to have been settled by Battus, who, seeking to avoid polit+ ical strife in the island of Thera, brought a few colonists to the African shore. He chose the site in accordance with a suggection from the oracle of Delphi, which commended a place ‘be- tween waters.’ The four springs, which furnished an abundance of pure water, on @ pfominence 10 miles from the sea- shore, was construed to fit this descrip- tion, after an earlier choice of a barren island had proved unhappy. Name From a Nymph. “The town took its name from that of a wood nymph who is supposed to have lived in the vicinity, on the slopes of verdant hills where today numerous herds of nomads find un- surpassed pasturage. “For more than 500 years after its settlement in 631 B. C. Cyrene flour- ished, but gradually its commerce be- gan to wane under thé sway of the Ptolemys, much of its trade being di- verted to Alexandria and Carthage. Finally the whole province was be- queathed to Rome by Ptolemy Apion in 96 B. C., and it remained a prov- ince of that empire until the Arab invasion of the seventh century. “As early as the fourth century, however, historians employed the phrase ‘deserteq towns’ in writing of Cyrene and others of the five cities which originally gave the name of Pentapolis to the region. “On these well wooded, amply watered shores of the Mediterranean there was cultivated a variety of bar- ley much prized by the ancients, while fruits and flowers still grow here in gréat luxuriance, almost on the fringe of the Libyan desert. One of the most famous products of Greek Cyrenaica was the silphium plant, whose reputed marvelous medicinal properties made it a most valuable article of export. No plant grown in this part of the world today has prop- erties of a nature so remarkable as to identify its as silphium. Its culti- vation, therefore, may be regarded as one of the ‘lost arts.’ Cyrenaic School Founded. “Among Cyrene’s native sons whose names add iustre to the history of the ancient city are Callimachus, the poet, and Aristippus, a pupil of Soc- rates. who founded the Greek school gf philosophy known as Cyrenaics. he Cyrenaic school, a forerunner of Epicureanism, held that pleasure is the highest good and that virtue is that course of conduct which is pro- ductive of the greatest enjoyment. “Owing to the anti-Christian activi- ties of the powerful and populous Senussi sect of Arabs, exploration of the ruins of Cyrene and her neighbor cities has not been pursued with great thorovghness. In fact, Turkish offi- ciale have, as far as possible, cur- tailed travel of Furopeans in this section of the Ottoman domain. “About 12 years ago the site of the arcient capital was visited by a ven- turesome varty of Englishmen, who made a hurried excursion. spending a single night amid the dust heaps of departed grandeur, where the only structures that defy the ravages of time are the great tiers of rock tombs. Playing about the lofty Ionic and ec columns which flarked the im- pressive entrances abodes of the sepultured found the hildr squalid nomad families, sole inherits tors of a.city of 100,000 inhabitants.” mm ADVANCE IMPERILS VENICE AND A BiG ARMY .) /merican Army Officer Discus- ses Possibilities of Offensive . in South Tyrol. ITALY . MADE’ MISTAKE Underestimated Enemys Strength and Thought Campaign Would Be Easy One. By Wire From the Washington Bu- reau of the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, May %.—Army offi- cers who have been watching with in- terest the offensive of the Austrian army against Italy in the southern Ty- rol, say that Italy has suffered seriour- ly. A military authority today outlined the Austrian campaign for the Post- Dispatch. He said: “The Austrian Commander in Chie! chose the most vital point for his of- fensive. The southern Tyrol always wa3 the best point for such a movement. The wonder is that the Italian com- mander permitted his line to become 80 weakened in the Lake Garda region that it could be rolled back for miles by the oncoming Austrians. “Should the offensive acomplish its purpose in the southern Tyrol, a great military coup will have been achieved A glance at the map will show that the center of the offensive is near Lake Garda, which is at the southernmos* point of the neck of Italy that reaches into Austria, at the head of the Adriatic sea. “The great Goritz offensive of the Italians was on the other side of this neck in Italy. Complete success for the Austrians in this offensive, therefore, would mean that the Italian army must be withdrawn from Udine-Trent line or that the main army would be bottled up in a comparatively small area, subject to attack by Austria on all sides. Italy’s Campaign Local. “As a matter of fact, Italy has been conducting a sort of local campaign. She had done little or nothing of value for her allies, except to have kept the Austrian army engaged. The value of this is greatly reduced, when one re- calls that Austria was distrustful of Italy from the first and maintained an army within easy reach of the border. “In the present Austrian offensive history is merely repeating itself. Here- tcfore the Italians have shown consid- erably less moral strength than the Austrians in the wars which have oc- curred. Press reports indicate that the Austrians have advanced far beyond the advanced lines and have recaptured in one week what it required Italy a year to conquer in the Trentino. “Tf it is true as reported from Ber- lin and Vienna, that the Italians are be- ing steadily rolled back, it probably means that the process will continue for some time, since no permanent defensive lines appear to have been laid further back. ‘“Ttaly apparently went into the war against Austria with the idea that the time had come to strike an ancient enemy, when Austria had her hands full elsewhere. The strength of Austria was discounted. This lack of foresight now promises to cost the Italian com- mander dearly. “There was some talk of an Italian army to aid the British and French when they sought to stay the Servian campaign of the central Powers, but both Servia and Montenegro had been defeated before a wheel was turned at Rome. If any troops from Italy crossed the Adriatic it was for the pur- pose of seizing the port of Aviona, the best on the eastern coast, in the hope of holding it permanently and not to assist the retreating Servians and Mon- tenegrins. No Help for Italy Likely. “For this reason it will be surprising if the allies attempt a major offensive at any point for the purpose of reliev- ing pressure on Italy. “It is not beyond the realm of possi- bility that Austria may roll the Italian forces out of the Northern Tyrol, which would have the effect of extending the Austrian Trentino through to the Adri- atic Sea. “Venice might fall into Austrian hands if they have a sufficient force to throw a strong line all the way across this relatively narrow neck of Italian terri- tory. “Tf it is true, as reported in press dispatches, that the Austrians have placed 100 heavy guns to the mile along a front of 2 miles there can be no doubt that Francis-Joseph and his military chiefs are determined to add further Italian territory to the Austrian em- pire, as well as relieve prospective pres- sure on the Goritz front.” CARRANZA SAID TO BE TAKING PROPERTY OF MADERO FAMILY Confiscation Attracted to Adherence of Former President’s Kins- men to Villa. WASHINGTON, May 25.—The Car- ranza Government has confiscated much of the property belonging to the Madero family, because of the adherence of the Maderos to Villa, according to reports which have reached the State Department through official channels. The reports were of such a char- acter as to satisfy officials that the’ de facto authorities from the outset determined to punish Villa adherents by means of confiscating such prop- erty as could be shown to belong to them.

EDMUNDS. Lecturer on Isternational Law, &t. Louis University Law § HE opinion is quite general that the T principle of universal military training is foreign to our political philosophy;;that it is antagonistic to the spirit of our peace-loving institu- tions and that it is primarily a device of aggressive empires for marshaling their whole forces for upholding the doc- trine of might. Yet thie principle is not only not in conflict with the fundamentals of our political conceptions, but on the con- trary is thoroughly in accord with them. We have only to consult the three pre- eminent political philosophers of the United States—Washington, Jefferson and Lincoln—to learn how vital they considered the common obligation of mil- itary service for the maintenance of our democracy. The revolutionary period of our his- tory is one in which the obligation of universal military service was realized, although Washington never ceased to complain of the inefficiency of the methods by which the full manpower of the colonies was employed. He com- plained not. only of the lack of disci- pline of that very large majority of troops who composed the state militia, but also of the pernicious system of in- dividual control, whereby unity of action was so frequently defeated. He declared time and again that.‘‘no militia will ever acquire the habits necessary to resist a regular force. The firmness requisite for the real business of fighting is only to be attained by a constant course of discipline and service.”” The methods of training and discipline in the respective siates were generally inadequate and lax, and it is not surprising that many of these organizations left unenviable records for desertion en masse and mutiny. Washington despaired of ever realizing an adequate degree of discl- pline in the militia in the respective states and very naturally placed his, greatest reliance upon regulars. However, he never lost sight of the military obligation of citizenship and the importance of training, repeatedly urging this in his speeches to Congress. } On Jan. 8, 179, for example, he said: ‘To be prepared for war is one of the most effectual means of preserving peace. to be armed but disciplined; to which is requisite.” Again-on Dec. 3, 1793, he said to Con- gress: “T cannot recommend to your notice measures for the fulfillment of our 4u- ties to the rest of the world without again pressing upon you the necessity of placing ourselves in a condition of complete defense and of exacting from them the fulfillment of,.their duties to- ward us. The United States ought not [= A free people ought not only. end an uniform and well digested plan | P resident’s Mind “to Let” on Subject oil use the phrase of a friend of mine, my mind — is not let on the sub- ject (compulsory military serv- ice), I would gay, merely, that that was not contrary to Ameri- can tradition.”—Recent statement of President Wilson. to the order of human events, they will forever -keep at a distance those painful appeals to arms with which the history of every other nation abounds. There is a right due to the United States among nations which will be withheld if not absolutely lost by the reputation of weakness. If we desire to secure peace, one.of the most powerful instru- ments of our rising prosperity, it must be known that we are at all times ready for war,"’ Jefferson conceived even more clearly the vital connection between citizenship andthe personal obligation of the citi- zerr to maintain his state by force of arms. In 1814 he wrote to Thomas Copper: “The Greeks and Romans had no standing armies, yet they defended themselves. The Greeks by their laws and the Romans by the spirit of their people, took care. to put into the hands of their rulers no such engine of oppres- sion as a standing army. Their system was to make every man a soldier and pledge him to repair to the standard of his country whenever that was reared. This made them invincible, and the same remedy will make us so.” He wrote in the same vein to Monroe in 1813, saying: “Every citizen should be a soldier. This was the case with the Greeks and Romans and must be that of every free state.” | Washington had more practical ex- -perience with the citizen-soldjer ‘and saw beyond the mere military obliga- tion, that by training alone could he be made effective. Jefferson, like Washington, was thor: oughly imbued with the necessity of being prepared for war, as he wrote tu Monroe as early as 1790: “Whatever enables us to go to wa", secures our peace.” He was insistent, however, that the civil arm of the Government should ur- der all circumstances remain para- mount to the military.

A. of the Board of Trade, who read a paper on that subject before the Royal Statistical So- ciety, in which she analyzed the ac- counts of expenditures in residentiel homes for working women. “From the analysis it appears,’’ said Miss Collet, “that in 1912 $1.25 a week was the very lowest cost per head, even in households with a good housekeeper, able to buy at wholesale prices and ca- tering for a community with very lim- ited incomes. An expenditure of $2.37 per head gave scope for economies. “Taking present prices into considera- tion, no appeal to diminish consumption should be addréssed to wage earners spending less than $2.12 per week in food, not including cost of preparation. “To richer women anxious to economize for the sake of the state, these returns seem to indicate that an expenditure of more than $3.25 a week for an adult woman's food is not necessary for ef- ficiency at the present time.” MUSSEL SHELLS IN DEMAND Reports Indicate Revival in Fresh- Water Pearl Indastry. WASHINGTON, May %.—Reports in- dicate the revival of strong demand for mussel shells and unusual activity in the fresh-water pearl button industry. Shells are bringing $30 per ton.

Edward V. P. Schniederhahn, law- yer and former Councilman, whose ac- tivities as a voluntary moral censor in St. Louis have brought him before the public on many occasions, is at- tempting to exercise a censorship over the sale in St. Louis of several widely read monthly magasines. Through his efforts several cheaply rrinted magazines lacking literary value during the past few months heve been withdrawn from sale at many news stands. He said they had an unmoral tone. This month Schnel- dcrhahn says he has been able to ottain a partial suppression of one popular magazine. He refused this morning to point out to a Post-Dis- patch reporter the objectionable fea- tures in the publication, but from an examination of the magazine it ap- pears that his complaint might be di- rected at reproductions of sculptures and paintings of nude figures. “It is not entirely one issue of a magazine to which objection is found,’ Schneiderhahn said, “but it is to the paliey of the management and the publication month after month of pic- tures and fiction which convey im- proper impressions to immature minds.” Refuses to Name Magazines. Schneiderhahn sald the reason for refusing to name the magazines to which he had objected and his re- fusal to point out the objectionable features was that to do so would be to advertise these publications. He said there had been little difficulty in stopping the sale of magazines which were distributed by one news agency, but that several which were distributed by several agencies could not be entirely suppressed in St. Louis. Schneiderhahn has seven in&pectors working under him. He is chairman of the Committee on Public Morals of the St. Louis Branch of the American Fed- eration of Catholic Societies. He has been actively engaged as a voluntary moral censor in St. Louis for %6 years, but only during the past few years has he systematized the work. When a Councilman, Schneiderhahn called public attention to this work when he objected to the hanging in the Ceuncil chamber of an advertising cal- ender which he branded as suggestive. He has forced hotels and saloons to remove pictures which he considered im- moral. Hig work has extended to pic- ture post cards, moving picture shows and to public addresses. A few days ago he succeeded in closing the doors of the Vietoria Theater to Mrs. Margaret San- ger, who had engaged the theater for a lecture on birth control. Censorship on Theaters. When theatrical managérs have tried the experiment of displaying bare- legged chorusés, Schneiderhahn has vis- ited the Prosecuting Attorney next day, and has caused the limbs to be covered His latest achievement of this kind was in the cage of Gertrude Hoffman's ‘‘Su- murun” at- the Columbia Theater three weeks ago. Miss Hoffman and her troupe were required to drape both their legs and their waists, which had been ‘Tleft bare in harem style. MAS. EWING GETS DIVORCE AND $60 A MONTH ALIMONY Testifies at Trial That She Was Ta- ken to Sanitarium by Force, and Lecked Up for Ten Days. Mrs. Frances MacDonald Ewing of Kirkwood obtained a divorce from Dr. Fayette C. Ewing at Clayton yesterday afternoon. The court restored her maiden name, Frances MacDonald, and made an award of $00 a month ali- mony. Dr. Ewing did not contest the suit except as to alimony. He represented that his net income from his practice as a noeé and throat specialist was only $10. Formerly, he said, it was about $7000 e@ year, but he hed not had the beart to keep up his practice after he and his wifé separated in 1912. Mrs. Ewing testified that she had been sent to a sanitarium by force and kept under lock and key for 10 days. This was one of the principal grounds fon which she based her plea. At another time, she said, three men went to a hotel where she was stopping and tried by force to take her to the city hospital observation ward, but friends prevented them.

INDIANS WHO “HOLD ON” Tara, a Youth, Has Served in France and Mesopotamia; Still ‘Fresh as Paint.’ Correspondence of the Post-Dispatch. LONDON, May 6.—"I was tawing bully beef and ‘Tigris’ with a Jat regiment in the firing trenches the other day, when the discussion arose as to why the Jat wears gold in his teeth,” writes Ed- mund Candler, a Daily Express corre- spondent with the English in Mesopota- mia. Tara, the bomb havildar, was sent for, a youth of five years’ service, and the quickest intelligence in the regi- ment. * Tara entered the dugout. “Why do Jats wear gold in their teeth, Tara?’’ the Colonel asked. ‘“‘ "There is a saying among my people, sahil, that he who wears gold in his teeth must always speak what is true. Gold in the teeth stops the passage of lies.’ ““*I have heard some story about gold helping the Jat to heaven,’ the Colonel observed. ‘Gold, Tara explained, was a passport in the other world, as in this, and it was not safe to carry it on the finger or in the ear, where it might be detached, so it was worn in the teeth. “The Jat is primarily a farmer. He has not the ancient military traditions of the Rajput, Mahratta, or Sikh, though none so stubborn as he to fight for his own hand. He does not figure in history among the adventurers, free-compan- ions, builders of kingdoms, leaders of men, but circumstances has molded him trom time to time into a fighting man. Prosperity may soften him, but adversi- ty only stiffens the impression of the mold. Ballt Into Fighters. “It was during the reconstitution of the Indian army in 1893 that the Jats were built up again into a fighting race. A good regimental officer can make any- thing he will out of the Jat. It takes earthquakes and volcanoes to turn a regiment of these hard-bitten men out of a position they have been given to hold. “A Jat battalion was one of the first of the Indian regiments to be engaged in France. As early as Nov. 16, 1914, they had broken into the German trenches. It was on the 23d of the-same month that they made their gallant counter attack over the snow at Festubert, with the Garh- walis, and won back the lost trench- es. At Richebourg, on Dec. 20, they held their ground against the Ger- man wave when they were left prac- tically. in the air; and they would not let go their hold at Neuve Cha- pelle when they were enfiladed from the Port Arthur position, still in- tact, on their right. Two months aft- erwards, on May 9, they made their frontal attack on Port Arthur. A double company penetrated the Ger- man lines; only seven men returned unwounded, History repeated itself in Mesopotamia. It has been the part of this gallant stock to arrive on the scene in the nick of time, and to be thrown into the brunt of the attack. Where a Jat Is Best. “The regiment in the trenches were mostly Jats of Hissar and Hoh- tak, and the Colonel told me ‘You must get the Jat where he is top- dog in his own country,’ he said, ‘and not where he lives among folk who think they are his betters. And he is best where the land is poor.In districts where the subdivision of the soil among large families does not leave enough to go round you will get a g00qd recrult.’ “There are many classes of Jat, and most of them have some pecu- liar virtue of théir own, but quick- ness of apprehension is not one of them. I had an amusing reminder of this before I left the trench. Bullete were pattering against the parapet with a crash as loud as the report of a rifle, and our own and the Turk shells screamed over the dugouts with so confused a din that one was never quite sure which was which. It was the beginning of the after- noon ‘strafe.’ Still, there was no call for casualties, and one only had to keep one’s head down. Periscope No Charm. “In the middle of it a subaltern coming down ‘Queer street,’ loked in and told us that one of the Jats was hit. ‘Loophole? the asked. But it was not a loophole. The jewan had got hold of somebody's periscope; he had heard that it was a charm which enabled you to see without being hit, and he was stand- ing up over the parapet trying to ad- just it like a pair of field glasses when @ bullet flicked off part of his ear. “The supply of good Indian offi- cers is sometimes a difficulty in a Jat regiment, for these children of labor follow better than they lead. But even in the acquisition of under- standing it is hard, plugging appli- cation that tells. ‘Continuing’ is the Jat's virtue, or ‘carrying on,’ as we gay; and he will sap through &@ course of signaling with the same dogged- nese as he saps up to the enemy's lines. ‘We've got some first-class’sig- nalers,’ the Colonel boasted, ‘if they can write their reports in Roman Urdu. Ana the pick of the lot is Tara, What that youth has seen in Francé and Mesopotamia would keep old Homer in copy through a dozen Ili- ads, but it has left no wrinkle on his brow. Tara is stil as fresh as paint.’ “Sahib,” he asked, ‘when may I go to the Turkish saphead with my bombs? Hé had lost a brother at Sheikh Saad, and wanted to make | good.

FOUR MEN ARE LIABLE Audit of Books Completed, Showing Numerous Discrepan- cies in Accounts. —_—_—_—_—_— An audit of the books of Stephen T Le Page, until recently treasurer of th» Outlying School District of East &t. Louis, completed by EB. M. Sorrelis, a public accountant, today, shows a short age of $42,019.40 in Le Page's accounts. according to an official report made to the trustees by Sorrelis. When Le Page admitted the cash shortage several weeks ago he said it amounted to $37,200 and informed the trustees that he had invested the money in real estate. The property, he said, was of sufficient value to reimburse the school fund. Since then Le Page har been unable to raise the necessary cash on his real estate. Silas Cook, counsel for the trustees today said he would not wait longer for Le Page to settle, but would file suit against his bondsmen. Book Discrepancies Found. In auditing the books Sorrells found that Le Page had credited himself with $4472 which he said he had paid out on warrants, but no cancelled warrants covering the amount could be found. Sorrells also discovered that $435 in in- terests which the school district owes a bank was not entered as a liability by Le Page. It had been thought that the burden of making up the shortage would be di- vided among about 20 men who, at dif- ferent times, had been bondsmen for Le Page during his 12 years of service. At- torney Cook today said only the four men who served as Le Page's bondsmen during his last two-year term could be held Hable. It was found that on June 30, 1915. Le Page made a sworn report to the Coun- ty. Superintendent of Schovis that he head $36,000 in cash in the treasury. Report Received in June. Jesse Gedney, one of the trustees, ob- jected to receiving the report and asked for an audit of the books, but he was overruled by the other two trustees and the report was officially accepted. Cook says that under the law the acceptance of this report as showing the affairs of the office were in good shape relieves all bondsmen who were sureties for Le Page prior to last June. The present bondsmen are County Treasurer Fred Warning, Charles B. Goedde, a lumber dealer, and Le Page's brothers, Joseph, a saloon keeper, and Albert, a baker. It is the genera! opinion that the Le Pages have little property that can be realized on and that the burden of the bond will fall on Warning and Goedde. Expense Account Not Itemized, An interesting disclosure of the audit was that on June 30, 1904, Le Page, who had then been in office only a short time, reported $4249 as having been spent for “miscellaneous expenses.” These expenses were not itemized, but the voucher was approved. In recent years there has been a rule that all expenditures of more than $10 must be itemized. Busy Bee Bakery Spécial This Weel. Streusel Roll Coffee Cake, lic each.

LM OE AER I ee Says “Red” | arate oe uf 3 hey Need Guys Like 1g in the St. Louis Club” Walter McAuliffe, hod carrier, widely, known to baseball fans and bricklayers as “‘Red’’ McAuliffe, is prepared to “bust his knuckles” on anybody who Bays he isn’t for preparedness, or On any other hod carrier who objects to marching in the preparedness parade June 3. “Red’”’ is a welcome guest on the play- ers’ benches of all the professional and semi-professional - ball teama in these parts, but he did not get into real fast company until Tuesday night, when he qualified as a big league pinch hitter by breaking into the batting order of the St. Louis Club, where bankers, min- isters, merchants and lawyers were dis- cussing plans for the parade. After taking one look at the bulky form of the collariess “‘Red” who had not taken time to remove the mortar of horiest toil from his shoes, the parade committee accepted as literally true his emphatic assertion that all of the 187 union hodcarriers in Sst. Louis would have to march in the parade ‘or settle with Red.”’ at Red Thinks of Club. Yesterday afternoon, while hoisting 200-pound buckets of cement mortar t* the roof of a three-story house at 462 Berlin avenue with a rope and pulley, “Red” gave a Post-Dispatch reporter his views on preparedness and the im- pressions caused by his visit to the St. Louls Club. “They need a bunch of guys like me out there,”’ said ‘‘Red’' as he lifted the groaning handles of an iron wheelbar- row containing 650 pounds of mortar and walked‘away with it as easily as if it had been a collapsible baby carriage While the reporter took long steps io keep up with him ‘‘Red’”’ talked back over the hodcarrier’s ‘muscle’ on his right shoulder. ‘‘I wouldn't care to be. long out there, though. I don’t want to break into the rich man’s house any more than I want him to break into my house. Don’t get me wrong, now. I'm not a Socialist. Nix on that stuff. “T think we all ought to stand to- gether when it comes to anything like rreparedness, tut that don’t mean we've got to stick our visiting cards under each others’ doors. But we'll be right with the silk-hat boys when it comes to marching in that parade. “Out there at that swell club I told those fellows that when two boys get in a fight the one that picks up 4 brick first is sure to win. The other boy may be bigger and stronger, but he backs out when he sees that brick. Trat’s the way Uncle Sam ought to ba fixed. He ought to have a brick stashed away where it would be handy to get at. Then the other fellows would be afraid to tackle him.

A lot of guys come over here from other coun- tries, because they don’t like the gov- ernment there, or maybe because the govrnment don’t like them and then they sit down and sing ‘Home, Sweet Home,’ and the home they're think- ing about is that dump across the sea, not their home here in America where they are treated right. “After a man comes over here there’s no reason why he should be a German, a Frenshman, a Russian or an Englishman.” “How about being an Irishman?’ the reporter asked. “Well, now, that's different,” s@id “Red.” “I didn’t put the Irishman in that list because every Irishman in the United States is an American. You never heard of an Irishman’ go- ing back on Uncle Sam. “Some of the so-called Americans over here aren't much better than these fire- eaters that come from across the pond. I was up in Detroit a short time ago and I never met so many unneutral guys in my Nfe. It kept my knuckles sore arguing with them. They couldn't see anything but the British side.” *‘Red” for the first time revealed that about a year ago he seriously contem- plated enlisting in the British army, but he hastened to éxplain that this was not because of any love for Great Brit- aii, but because he wanted to get into the “big scrap” and he knew that his freckles and the ‘‘Mc”’ in front of his name would bar him from the German army. Started for England. “T started down to New Orleans last July, intending to ship for England on a mule boat,’’ said ‘“‘Red.”’ ‘‘Then I sat do-vyn and got to thinking it over. I fig- ured that I had no business in the Brit- ish army, because that wasn't my coun- try, and if I went over there and fought for a flag that wasn't my own. and killed some poor Dutch boob that had a wife and seven children I would be just a plain murderer. “Another reason I didn't go was that I found out I'd have to bunk with the mules on the way across the pond. I made un my mind that I'd stay over ‘here and not kill anybody upless he triec to break nito Uncle Sam's back yard. I'll be there, too, when the call comes.

At the request of Circuit Attorney Harvey today, Provisional Judge Fish, sitting for Judge Miller in the Court of Criminal Correction, ordered the for- feiture of a $500 bond given by Robert Burns of 1216 Pine street, who is under indictment on a charge of stealing $160 worth of jeweiry Hattie 5S. Walker of 204A Franklin avénue. Burns’ bonds- man is Charlies (Cap.) Troll, a Repub- lican ward politician. Burns was arrested on the theft charge May 12 On the same day Judge Miller accepted a $500 bond, signed by Troll, to cover a charge of “suspected larcency.” The bond was made re- turnable May 13, but on that day Burns failed to appear in court. Judge Miller extended the bond to May 16 and when Burns against failed to appear granted a second extension until today. Judge Miller did not appear in court today, but appointed William E. Fish to serve in his stead. : In asking for the ¢erfeiture, Circuit Attorney Harvey said he believed the bend should have been forfeited the first time Burns failed to appear and that, in any event, it was too small fo cover a first degree robbery charge. based on the alleged theft of $1600 worth of prop- erty. Today’s forfeiture was ordered certi+ fied to the Circuit Court. It will be about 30 days before Judge Fish’s order will be docketed and probably another 30 days before the final judgment against Troll cah be hended down, court officials say.

The British Constitution has been the model whence most of the countries that have within recent times adopted consti- tutional government have drawn their institutions. Britain has herself during the last 8 years made her constitution more and more truly popular. It is now as democratic as that of any other European country, and in their dealings with other countries the British people have shown a constant sympathy with freedom. They .showed it early in the nineteenth century to Spanish constitu- tional reformers and to Greek insurgents against Turkish tyranny. They showed it to Switzerland when they foiled (in 1847) the attempt of Metternich to inter- fere with her independence. They have shown it markedly‘ within recent years. Britain has given free governments to all those of her colonies in which there is a population of European origin cap- able of using them, and this has con- firmed the attachment to herself of those colonies. * * * Problem of Ireland. There-had long been trouble and con- troversies connected with the state of Ireland, for, although she was fully rep- resented in the British Parliament, the majority of the population expressed a desire, which excited much opposition, to have autonomous institutions granted to them. It had been found hard to find an acceptable solution of this question, cihefly because a considerable element in the Irish population did not wish for those institutions. But the question was settled in 1914 by the passing of an act giving to Ireland (subject to certain safeguards arid provisions not yet set- tled in detail) a local Parliament as a satisfaction to national sentiment and to the desire of a majority for that kind of autonomy which they had asked for through their representatives in Parlia- ment. What has been the result? Ireland, on whose disaffection to the United King- dom the German Government had been counting, has shown herself when the war broke out to be thoroughly loyal. Protestants and Roman Catholics have vied with one another in volunteering into the new armies which have been raised during the last 12 months. Some of the most powerful speeches made in defense of the war have come from the leaders of the Irish Nationalists. Some of the finest deeds of valor have been done by Irish regiments. These are the fruits of liberty as Britain has under- stood it and practiced it. Principle of Nationality. 2. Britain stands for the principle of nationality. She has always given her sympathy to the efforts of a people rest- less under:a foreign dominion to deliver themselves from the stranger and to be ruled by a Government of their own. The efforts of Greece from 1820 till her lib- eration from the Turks, the efforts of Italy to shake off the hated yoke of Austria and attain national unity under an Italian King, found their warmest support in England. English Liberals gave their sympathy to national move- ments in Hungary and Poland. They gave that sympathy also to the German movement for national unity from 1848 to 1870, for in those days that movement was led by German Liberals of lofty aims who did not desire, as the recent rulers of Germany have desired, to make their national strength a menace to the peace and security of their neighbors.

FRESNO, Cal., May 2.—Close upon &@ contest for the estate of John M. Keith, late San Francisco oil operator, another contest over $500,000 left by Keith to his brother Amos, is to begin here to- day. Fifty-four persons alleged that undue influence was used to induce amos Keith on his deathbed to make his will in favor’ of John A. Stephen; of Cartersville, Ga., and Luke W. Da- vis and John Keith of Selma, Ala., al‘ nephews. Keith was a recluse near Selma. Remembering a claim finally thrown out of court made by Dr. Sarah Ted- ford of Los Angeles that Mrs. Louiie Thompson was John M. Keith's lost daughter and heir to his fortune, Amo3 Keith had the following clause inserted in his will: “T declare that I never have been married nor engaged to be married; but as I have been in receipt of many let. ters from women suggesting marriage and as I have witnessed fraudulent ef- forts of women to claim the estate of my deceased brother, John M.

Such Englishmen, who do not cease to be lovers of peace because this war, felt to be righteous, commands their hearty support, are now just as de- termined as any others to carry on the war to victory. Why? Because to. them this war presents itself as a conflict of principles. On the one side there is the doo- trine that the end of the State is pewer, that might makes right, that the State is above morality, that war is necessary and desirable as a factor Jip progress, that the rights of small states must give way to the interests Or great states, that the state may disregard all obligations whether un- dertaken by treaties or prescribed by the common sentiment of mankind, and that what is called military ne- cessity justifies every kind of harsh- ness and cruelty in war. * * ® On the other side there is the doctrine that the end of the State is justice, the doctrine that the State is, like the in- dividual, subject to a moral law and bound in honor to observe its promises, that nations owe duties to one another and to mankind at large, that they have all more to gain by peace than by strife, that national hatreds are deadly things, condemned by philosophy and by Chris- tianity. In the victory of one or the other of these principles the future of mankind seems to us to be at stake. *s #* 8 Relief From Armament. Those Englishmen whose views I am seeking to express, recognizing the al- legiance we all owe to humanity at large, and believing that progress is achieved more by co-opération than by strife, are, however, hoping for some- thing more than the victory of their own country. They desire to see the world relieved from the burden of arm- aments and from that constant terror sky for so many generations. They ask whether it may not be pos- sible, after the war has come to an end, to form among the nations an effective League of Peace, embracing smaller as well as larger peoples—under whose egis disputes might be amicably settled and the power of the league invoked to pre- vent any one State from disturbing the general tranquility. The obstacles in the way of creating such a league-are many and obvious, but whatever else Bas: ee oe gS i . ia nee SiGe a, aa u soe ee - ’ Tomorrow The Lindell inaugurates a sale event that will be eagerly watched for on the last Friday of It is a sale of remnants, odd lots, incomplete color and size ranges—in fact, just as its name implies, every department in the store.

He had no prepared _ speeches or statement to make, but he said if he thought the German Gov- ernment or German opinion had reached the point where the allied Govern- ments could bring a peace, compatible with their desires, mearer by making speeches about peace, he would make ‘T dozens of them. But, the Foreign Min- ister added, the time had not yet ar- rived, and the allies were bound by cemmon obligations not to put forward any terms of peace except by mutual agreement.

The Government must rec- ognize that the war had reached a dead- lock, ahd at the same time the superior position of Great Britain also must be recognized. The latter was due to the spirit and valor of the people and not to statesmen. Jingoism Resented by Ponsonby. The speaker said he hoped the states. men were not going to imperil the sif:- ation by delay and inaptitude. Nothing had helped Germany more than the cx- treme jingo utterances of responsibl® statesmen. They had enabled Prus- sianism to keep Germany together. Pon- sonby said recriminations must cease. He considered it wanting in respect *'o the British people for the Ministers to disregard Parliament and then adopt the American press as a platform.

Br Associated Presa. BERLIN, via London, May 2.—A., wireless dispatch from the United States, giving the substance of Presi- dent Wilson’s speech .at Charlotte, N. | C., in which he referred to the possi- bility of American mediation in the war, is given the place of honor in the morning papers. The afternoon editions return to the subject and their com- ments, together with the wide interest shown by ‘the German public, shcw how important this news is regarde.i here. Although .definitely stated nowhere, ther is little doubt that «Germany is willing to consider a tender of good of- fices to inaugurate peace negotiations. The former attitude in the tiggest quarters that America had disquali- filed herself as a peace mediator on ac- count of her shipments of munitions jo the allies has changed. If Presiucnt Wilson can hold out any tangible possi- bilities that peace may result through his mediation, Germany, will undoubt- edly be willing to consider such sug-’ gestions as he may offer. Germany Wary of Prospects, This receptive attitude is naturally subject to the conditions that Germany is not jockeyed into a position of an- nouncing her readiness to accept Presi- dent Wilson's good offices, only to find the allies later rejecting the tender and asserting that Germany is suing for peace. There is equally little doubt that the great masses of the people, aside from the professional hotspurs in news- paper offices, would willingly see Amer- ica in the role of peace intermediary, despite the persisting bitterness over the -munitions question. As a matter of fact, little is heard nowadays, either from the general pub- lic or from the press, on the subject of American shipments of arms. The ques- tion seems to have been submerged by other problems of existence which are of immediate importance to the nation. President Wilson’s declaration cannot impression in Germany as far as the so-called “‘armor plate’’ newspapers like the Tages Zeitung and the Taglische Rundschau are concerned. Other chau- vinist organs take occasion to remember President Wilson with bitter and un- complimentary phrases and even a mad- erate paper like the Lokal Anzeiger ‘de- clares that the President should first demonstrate the impartiality of his neu- trality by making good his demand for respect for American rights against England. He would thén have an ex- cellent chance, says the paper, of suc- ceeding in his peace measure.as far as Germany is concerned. The rumors of mediation have affected the Berlin stock market. ‘‘War babies,”’ which have been generally weak, drop- ped lower still on reports that America and other neutral countries were contemplating a tender of their good offices as peace mediators. At the same time, ‘‘peace stocks’’ such as shipping and Colonial securities are in strong demand: Oakes Candy Sale Fri. & Sat., 19¢ Lb. Delicious Choc. Creams, Divinity Pecan Puffs, Choc.

The balance went chiefly to Asia and Australia. The United States supplied 29 per cent of the country’s $266,000,000 worth of imports. India outranked the United States with 28 per cent. China's sales were 16 per cent and Australia’s 15 per cent. Japan’s leading import article is cot- ton, of which the United States last year supplied about $28,000,000 worth.

I know that my retirement will make no difference in its cardinal principles, that it will always fight for progress ‘and reform, never tolerate injustice or corruption, always fight demagogues of all parties, never belong to any party, always oppose privileged classes and public plunderers, never lack sympathy with the poor, always remain devoted to the public welfare, never be satisfied with merely printing news, always be drastically independent, never be afraid to attack wrong, whether by predatory plutocracy or predatory poverty. JOSEPH PULITZER. April 1 10, 1907. | _ §T. LOUIS TO THE FRONT. Fifty organizations have pledged delegations for the Preparedness parade. They embrace every kind and condition of men. The business and labor organizations will be in line. Judges and other public officials, with firemen, policemen, clergymen, turnvereins and other athletic soci- lawyers, doctors and boy scouts. The women will supply a corps of marchers. The organizations naturally will form the nu- cleus of the procession, but there should be great divisions of unattached citizens. The invi- tation to participate and the opportunity to ex- press sentiment is open to all. Every man and woman in St. Louis who believes in adequate preparedness for national defense should take a place in the line. Chicago expects a parade of 150,000. Other cities of the Union will have demonstrations. St. Louis should be in the front rank of its class.

Time was when life was a mystery to youth. Now a tot of twelve often can tell his elders what even they have never learned. This precocity is harm- ful, as the children are not able to discriminate, and simply have their curiosity whetted before they are physically competent, which fact will lead them into unnatural sensationalism. “As for the shows, a child must not be forced to witness the intricacies of adult life before he is mentally competent to judge the sickly from the healthy, the weed from the wholesome plant; .such things only excite unhealthy imagery, with- out furthering mental growth.” a A. - The inglorious part of the Texas militia does not necessarily stamp the national guard as N.

His duty is to see that food is supplied the in- mates in proper amounts and proper nutrient values. In individual cases he gives prescriptions for food according to need, as the physician gives prescriptions for medicine. The new office to which Von Batocki has just been named in Germany makes him dietician to 70,000,000 people, with the duties of steward added. His task is the conservation of food sup- ply and its apportionment in sufficiency and healthful variety.

From the Seminole (Texas) Sentinel. The new Indian religion introduced the past year by the Potawotomies has secured its first convert among the Chippewas in the person of Pat Mocra better known as “Broadface.” Pat has always been the bad actor among the Chippewas, but Judging from his talk he has reformed. No more whiskey and tobacco for him and his squaw and no more all-night orgies on the lake shore. Like all ‘ reformers Pat wants everyone else to be good and not lose, any time about it.

Why! he had invaded the precincts of the Morton home, and Ruth Morton was a very dear name to him, al- thcugh he had never told anyone so— no one, not even Ruth herself, who would have been pleased ‘to learn the fact. Twice he had been Ruth's escort to a town entertainment, Then he had been too bashful to call. Often he had thought of her. Now he dodged farther into the barn. Ruth and four of her little sisters and brothers who were accom- panying her were making straight for his retreat. “Why, Mr. Burton!’’ exclaimed Ruth, and she looked really pleased, though flustered, as she came upon him, “‘is this your long-looked-for call?’ “Er—why, yes,’’ declared Burton in stumbling tones, feeling that he was acting like a dunce. “That is, I—well, I’m taking a day off and you see, sort of putting in the time’— “Which you ean do to decided advan- tage to us,” said the sprightly Ruth. “Myself and this brood have about 10 bushels of apples to pare and cut for evaporation.

The crowd al- ready knew and cheered Burton iustily questioned one of the group who had a it The Fox Who Was Vain AJ Sandman story of how Mr. Bear took his picture and played a joke on him. R. FOX was trotting one morning Mi through the woods by a river, so he stopped for a drink of water. Just as he was dipping his head into the water he caught sight of himself in the clear depths and he stopped to ad- mire himself. “T know what I will do,’ said Mr. Fox. “I will have my picture taken. I wonder I never thought of it before. I will run off and ask Mr. Bear if he knows who can photograph me.” Mr. Bear was sitting in ihs doorway smoking his pipe when Mr. Fox came along. ‘“T want to have my picture taken,” said Mr. Fox. ‘‘Do you know where I can find anyone to do it? And I par- ticularly want a good picture of my tail.”’ Now Mr. Bear had been to @ circus once and he remembered that a man took his picture, so he said to Mr. Fox: “Why, I can take it; I know all avout how it is done, but you will have to come back tomorrow because I haven't any outfit just now.” “All right; I will be back morning early,’ said Mr. Fox. So Mr. Bear scurried about. First he got a box which he put on top of the stump of a tree, then he hunted up a piece of black cloth, but where he should find a picture he did not know. R. BEAR searched everywhere Vi for a picture that would look find. like Mr. Fox, but none did he “He said he particularly wanted a good picture of his bushy tail," said Mr. Bear. “Perhaps this will do,’ he said at last. i is good and bushy, too,”’ in the | Household Helps, =| T° keep a little child from slipping when he is taking his bath in a porcelain tub, spread a large Turkish towel on the bottom of the tub before turning on the water. ’ Two or three slices of lemon eaten after onions will entirely destroy the odor.

Off he ran to his home with the pic-]{ ture and put it in the box under the black cloth. The next morning Mr. Fox came around to have his picture taken. Mr. Bear put his head under the black cloth that was over the box and said. “Now stand very still, Mr. Fox. Turn vour head a little to the side and stand so your beautiful tail will show a little more. Now, stand still just a minute.”’ Mr. Fox stood so still he did not wink for fear of spoiling the picture, and jus: as he was sure he should sneeze and spoil it Mr. Bear said, ‘‘That’s all, Mr. Fox. Be seated a minute and I will show you a beautiful picture of your- self.’’ In a few minutes Mr. Bear took from the box the picture he had put there and handed it to Mr. Fox. “There,” he said, “did you’ gee such a beautiful tail?’ Mr. Fo, all smiles, took the picture. He gave one look at it and then dropped it with a how! and tried to look at his tail He saw the end of it just as it always had looked, but he ran to the river to get a better view. R. BEAR ran after him. “What is the matter, Mr. Fox?” he asked. “Doesn't the picture please you? I am sure you could never get a more beautiful picture of a bushy tail than that.” Mr. Fox sank on the bank of the river with a sigh of relief, and then he said, ‘Where did she get that tail sho held up for everybody to look at?’ “Who?” asked Mr. Bear. “Why, the lady in the picture,” said Mr. Fox, “I thought at first they had cut off my tail, and I could almost hear the dogs and the horses chasing after me. I don’t like that picture. Is that the best you can do?’ “If you don’t like that tail in the picture, Mr. Fox, you are hard to please. Why, it is far handsomer than your own. I thought you would like it,” said Mr. Bear. “You are not a judge of handsome bushy tails, it seems, Mr. Bear," said Mr. Fox, growing very angry. ‘‘Besides that, I wanted a picture of my own tall, net that of some poor, unfortunate fellow who had lost his in the chase. I'll go somewhere else for my picture to be taken.

UNE 30.—It is the day after my J wedding, and the train is rushing us along to the blessed little fish- ing village on the edge of Maine, where we are to spend our honeymoon. I have sent Ned into the s:aoking room, fcr one of the things about which I heve firmly made up my mind is that I WILL NOT be a henny wife. Even oi: our honeymoon I’m going to teach myself not to “tag’’ Ned. And, besides, I have a chance, now that I am alone for a little while, to tell my diary about my wedding day. It seems 24 years instead of 24 hours ago. And the two things that stand out ‘in my mind most vividly are two queer ta.ngs. One of these is the talk I had with Ned’s mother. And the other is the girl with the red cape. Ned's mother is a tall person who lcoks so much like him—I mean,, I suppose, that he looks like her. She is beautiful, I think, but some way #he makes one feel as if she were wearing a mask. Occasionally the mask slips, and one seés such sad, ured eyes *Dchind it. She came to me early in the after- noon of my wedding day. And she said a strange thing. She lookéd at me with eyes that are Ned's. and asked abruptly: *‘Do you know my sen?’’ A Mother’s Confession. HE didn't wait for an answer. S “You know,"’ she said, ‘‘that he is brilliant, attractive, lovable an that he loves you—now. But do you know that he is selfish and that at times he has an utterly unmanageable tem- per.”’ “But Ned is the most wonderful man I have ever known,” I cried. Then I began to grow angry. ‘How can you, his mother, tell me such things about him?” I demanded. “I tell you as a penance,” she an- swered, in her even tones. “I spoiled Ned when he was little and I never taught him self-control. Only since he has grown up have I seen how foolish I was, and yet even now I love him so much that I could not bear to tell you these things till the last minute. There—there are other things I might tell you"”—she hesitated. “I don’t want to hear them.” I cried indignantly. “I love Ned and nobody, not even his mother, shall tell me things about him.” Suddenly her hands were on my shoul- ders and she was kissing me for the first time. ‘‘My dear,”’ she said, “I beg your pardon. I am very glad my son is going to marry you and I hope never to be sorry that you are going to marry him. Don’t—don’t let yourself be hurt.” And she was gone before T could an- swer her. I have not told Ned about the conver- satton. I am going to try to forget it. I know, in a general way, that he must about any particular ones. And I do not think I shall tell him about the giri in the red cape. I heard Leonie, the maid that we've had since I was a little girl, grumbling about her to my mother. ‘“‘Three times that red-caped hussy has been here asking for the young mistress.” ‘“‘Who is she, mother?’ I questioned quickly, “A poor woman—I think she must be a little mad—who said that the settlement sent here here?’’ said my mother, refer- ring to a neighturhood house in -vhich we are interested “And she asked for ne,’’ she added, with a reproving glance at Leonie. .

Mrs. Josiah Evans Cowles, the Califor- nia candidate for the presidency, and Mrs. George Bass, Illinois “dark horse,”’ were shut out in the first rush, but ad- mitted later with a second relay. The police explained the blockade as the result of hundreds of tickets issued in excess of the capacity of the armory. The committees insisted that many vis- iting club women’s tickets have been obtained by fraudulent registration. at the Hotel Astor. In the beginning all tickets were honored in the order of their presentation. When the immense crowds began to pour in the police, under orders from the women, admitted only those who showed delegates’ badges, but when hundreds of certified delegates reached the hall, their places were already filled and the final lockout, which occurred just before the opening hour, 8:30, ex- cluded saint and sfnner alike; a dele- gate’s badge was no more’than waste paper. The disappointed throngs lingered about the doors for almost an hour be- fore they consented to disperse. The federation opened its business Armory.

ae * » ie City on Tigris Is Also Near the Burial Place of the Prophet “Jonah.” WASHINGTON, May 2%.—‘Mosul, one of the cities of Mesopotamia, which en- tertained .high expectations of revived commercial importance as a result of the stimulus to be afforded by th» comple- tion of the great trade artery of the Near East, the Bagdad Railway, has been brought suddenly into the fore- ground of the world war by the Rus- gian operations which are reported to be duplicating here the successes achieved previously at Erzerum and Trebizond,” says a war geography bulletin issued by the National Geographic Society from its Washington headquarters. “This town of about 50,000 peaple, three-fourths of whom are Moslems,” continues the bulletin, ‘‘is situated on the right bank of the Tigris, 220 miles above Bagdad, and just opposite the ex- tensive ruins of the great Assyrian capital of Nineveh. The Great Mosque, with its odd leaning minaret, is the chief architectural feature of this other- wise unimpressive lo-:..ng city with its crumbling limestone walls inclosing _ cemeteries that occupy almost as much Space us the habitations of the living. Hurt by Suez Canal. “The Suez Canal Icng ago diverted much of Mosul’s caravan commerce, but the town i still a distributing point for Northern Mesopotamia. Supplanting in importance the locally manufactured woolen and cotton fabrics which re- ceived the name of ‘muslin’ from the city, the chief article cf export today iz gallnuts, gathered in the adjacent mountains. This pecdliar parasitic prod- uct has medicinal properties utilized in an astringent ointment, and is also an important ingredient of certain eyes and black inks. “One of the physical peculiarities of Mosul is the bridge over the Tigris. connecting this one-time suburb of an- cient Nineveh, with the ruins of the parent city. One-sixth of the bridge is an ordinary span which joins the right bank and a small island. Beyond the island the traveler crosses the wider branch of the river by means of a pon- toon or boat bridge. As the high wa- ters of May are now receding the Ti- gris will soon uncover the silt-enriched islands around Mosul, and by midsum- mer there will be a bountiful harvest of melons and other fruit, provided the natives have had time, during their preparations for defense against the Grand Duke’s army, to plant their cus- _tomary crops. “Among the places of interest pointed out to the traveler in this section of Mesopotamia is the tomb of Jonah, on the left bank of the river, recalling viv- idly to mind the history of the mighty metropolis, founded, supposedly, by Ni- nus and the famed Semiramis more: than 200 years before the -. 1Stian era, and to which the prophet Jonah had been sent with a warning at ...« time of his adventure with the ‘great ush.’ “Mosul has undergone many vicissi- tudes since its capture by the Arabs in the seventh century. It achieved its greatest prosperity during the decline of the caliphate. Syrians and Seljuks held it successively during the tenth and eleventh centuries, after which came a final flare of splendor under . the rulership of the remarkable atabeg General Zengi. It was this Emir who launched from Mosul the ‘jihad’ or counter-crusade against the ‘infidei Christians’ in Palestine. This crusade resulted eventually in the overthrow of the Western Knights of the Cross, who had redeemed tle Holy Sepulchre from Mosiem hands and had set up ea kias- dom in Jerusalem. The final accom- plishment of the Mosul Emir’s crusade fell to the lot of the justly renowned Saladin, son of one of Zengi's Generals and a Mahommedan ruler of many ex- ceptional virtues. After the death of Zengi’s heir Saladin laid unsuccessful siege to Mosul in an effort to bring all Syria under his dominion.‘In 1187 svc- ceeded in exacting homage from the city. “For a short time during the seven- teenth century Mosul was occupied cy ‘the Persians, but it was soon restored and has reniained subject to the Ottu- man empire up to the present time.” Cities Service Scores Another Gain.

WASHINGTON, May 2%.—The activity of Austrian and Italian troops on the Tyrolean border, centering around the ancient city of Rovereto and the Ter- ragnola region, lying to the east, gives timeliness to the following bulletin of the National Geographic Society with headquarters in Washington. “With a population of 11,000, less than half.that of the neighboring city of Trent, 15 miles higher up the Adige Valley, Rovereto is the most important industrial center of the Italian-speaking section of Austrian Tyrol. It is situ- ated on the left bank of the Adige, a waterway second only to the Po among Italian waterways, with a nav- igeble length of 170 miles, from the Adriatic to a point well beyond Trent, Through the town runs the mountain torrent Leno, which rushes down from the Terragnola district past Piazza, one of the strategic points in the present fighting. “Enjoying the advantages of the im- portant railway connecting Innsbruck. 132 miles to the north, and Verona, 45 miles to. the south, Rovereto’s silk in- dustry is considerable, but it has been declining slowly in recent years. A mile to the west is a large tobacco factory at Sacco, and the Isera vineyards, on the opposite bank of the Adige, are famous. An Ancient City. “Rovereto’s history dates back to the days of Lothair, the Saxon, the Roman emperor, who in the twelfth century yielded to the importunities of Innocent II. and marched across the Alps with a small army, to espouse this pope’s cause at Rome against the rival Pope Anacle- tus II. During his passage over the mountains Lothair met with determined opposition from the lords of a strongly fortified castle, situated just above the present site of Roverto. After defeating the defenders Lothair presented the cas- tle to one of his Teutonic followers. A hundred years later a descendant of this Teuton greatly extended his domain by a political marriage with a member of the powerful Lizzana family, whose an- cestral stronghold was a few miles to the south. Between these two castles, which cam- manded the valley both to the north and south, the city of Rovereto was estab. lished in 1300. It fell before the Vene- tians in the following century and re- mained a possession of the powerful re- public of the Adriatic until 1517, when it was ceded to Emperor Maximilian, since which time it has been a part of Austrian Tyrol. It was in the Lizzana castle that Dante is supposed to have found refuge for a year during his exile from Florence. This period of his banishment is sup- posed to be reflected in a passage of the twelfth canto of the ‘Inferno,’ which contains a description identified with certain nearby naumal remains prob- ably caused by a landslide in 883. “With the exception of Dante the only famous name connected with Rovereto’s history is that of Antonio Rosmini-Ser- bati, the Italian philosopher and teach- er, who was born here. Rosmini founded the Institute of Brethren of Charity early in the nineteenth century. Mem- bers of the brotherhood in the United States are .nown as Rosminians.” 0, R.

NEW YORK, May 25.—That Ger- man submarine liner story is much doubted here. According to the re- port—credited to an unnamed pas- senger of the Frederick VIII—Ger- many has built submersibles 450 feet in length, 40 feet beam and with a speed of 14 knots, These are to ¢s- cape from Hamburg by running un- der water until clear of the coast, run awash across the Atlantic and submerge on nearing this port, to avoid enemy cruisers. They are to bring rich cargoes of drugs and car- ry passengers and mails. Julius P.
