PRICE ONE CENT PC BUTLER IS | '—WEPHEETERS” JOB ' Acting Governor Selects _ Manager of American Hotel for Police Commis- sioner Following His Re- quest for Resignation of Present Official. President of Board Says He Was Named by Major and Will Ignore Action of Painter and Resist Re- moval. Declares Lieutenant-Gover- nor Is Miffed Because He Refused to Promote Cer- tain Policemen. Lieutenant-Governor Painter, acting Governor in the absence of Gov. Major from the State, today announced the ap- peintment of C. C. Butler, manager of the American Hotel and a Colonel on the Governor’s staff, to succeed Sam B. McPheeters as a member of the St. Louis Board of Police Commissioners. Painter Wednesday telegraphed to Mc- Pheeters a summary request for his resignation. This fact became known this morning. In an interview Painter said that if McPheeters did not resign by noon he would appoint a successor. * MecPheeters refused to resign and said that he would pay no attention to Paint- er’s demand and that Painter could keep on wiring requests for his resignation until doomsday and he would ignore them. After Butler's appointment was an- nounced in Jefferson City he told a Post-Dispatch reporter that he had re- | ceived no word of the appointment. He ' gaid that until it came he would not say definitely whether he would acgept. The reason for Painter’s request for his resignation, as McPheeters sees it, is that the lLieuternant-Governor is miffed because McPheeters refused his Tequests that certain policemen be pro- moted to higher rank and that certain others be transferred Attorney-General Barker said, at Jef- ferson City, that the Governor had the power to instantly discharge a Police Commissioner without a hearing. This authority is given in section 9803, Re- vised Statutes of Missouri, 1909, which Says that “any of said (Police) Commis- sioners may be removed by the Gover- nor of the State of Missouri upon his being fully satisfied that the Commia- sioner is guilty of any official miscon- duct." The statutes give the Lieuten- ant-Governor the power to act as Gov- ernor when the Governor is absent from the State. Governor Is Silent. Gov. Major has been in Highland Park, lll., on his vacation for several] days. He told reporters over the tele- phone that he had no advance knowl- edge of the Lieutenant-Governor’s ac- tion, and that he had no comment to make regarding it. “Iam on my vacation and will be out of the State probably until the end of the month,”” the Governor said. ‘‘Lieu- tenant-Governor Painter is the acting Governor, and I shall not interfere with any action he takes. I had no advance knowledge of this action, and it will not Make any change in my plans.”’ The Governor said he had no knowl- edge of the reasons Painter had for Making the changes. He said he was Uncertain whether he would remain in Highland Park, that he might leave there any day, but that he saw no rea- 80n why he should return to Missouri. There was much speculation among Politicians as to whether Painter acted independently in demanding McPheeters'’ resignation or whether his action had $33 approval of Gov. Major. While some believed Painter had tak- en advantage of his opportunity to Sratify a personal grudge against Mc- Pheeters, others pointed out that Ma- Jor might have political motives for Sanctioning McPheeters’ dismissal. MecPheeters Was for Gardner. In the recent primary campaign, Ma- jor favored Atkinson as a gubernatori- ) @ candidate. He had his appointees in Kansas City ‘go down the line” for At- kinson, but he was unable to do this in St. Louis. McPheeters favored Gard- her, who was nominated with a big HIGH TEMPERATURE TO .

ARMY BILL BECAUSE PRESIDENT VETOES OF RETIRED GLAUSE It Exempts Old Officers From Discipline—New Measure Is Introduced in House. MAY REOPEN BIG FIGHT Retired Officer Said to Desire to Make Public Attack on Army. WASHINGTON, Aug. 18.—President Wilson today vetoed the army appropri- ation bill because of exemptions from discipline of retired officers forced into it by the House conferees led by Rep- resentative Hay over the opposition of the War Department. A new Dill will be necessary and may delay adjourn- ment of Congress. Representative Hay later reintroduced the bill, minus not only the section to which the President objected, but with the whole revision of the articles of war eliminated. This threatened to complicate the situation. Representative Hay announced that he would seek to repass the bill in the House under a special rule next Tuesday. May Reopen Whole Fight. “The articles of war will not br permitted to get through in this bill again,” he declared emphatically after a conference with several men- bers of the military committee. The danger of complication and de- lay lies in the fact that chairman Chamberlain of the Senate Military Committee said that if the House passed the bill without revision of the articles of war, the Senate prob- ably would reinsert them as they were passed by the Senate. The President and War Department were satisifed with that provision. “The veto,” said Senator Chamber- lain, “re-opens the whole bill and there may be some Senators who will want to review their fight for amend- ments stricken out in conference.” Text of the Veto. President Wilson’s veto message fol- lows: ‘To the House of Representatives: “I have carefully considered the bill entitled, ‘An Act Making Appropria- tions for the Support of the Army for the Fiscal Year Ending June 30,1917,’ and now take the liberty of returning it with my objections to its approval. “The bill congtiutes an essential part of the legislation providing for the mili- tary ostablishement of the country and wisely and generously provides for the reorganization of the agencies of our national defense, and it is with gen- uine reluctance that I delay its be- coming law by suggesting the elimina- tion of one of the porvisions which has been embodied in the very necessary and important revision of the articles of war which has been added to it. “The existing articles of War are un- doubtely archaic. They have not under- gone comprehensive revision for more than 100 years. They do not always furnish the means of meeting promptly and directly the needs of discipline un- der modern conditions, and many con- tingencies now frequently arise in the Government of the military forces which were not contemplated when the pres- ent code was formulated. The - rela- tions of the Government of the United States have greatly broadened within the hundred years. We now have insular possessions and national interests far away from our continental shores. Both the practice of arms @md the theory of discipline have uncergone many modern changes and a manifest need for such a revision of these ariicles as is here presented has long existed. I, therefore, the more keenly regret to find in the proposed revision of the articles of war a provision to which I cannot give my approval, “The original act establishing the re- tired list of the army referred to the personnel therein included as only par- tially retired, and provided that a re- tired officer should be entitled to wear Continued on Page 2.

STATE ARBITRATOR CALLS CONFERENGE ON MILK STRIKE * Awaits Dairymen and Strikers at Laclede Hotel—Employers Refuse to Attend. MEDIATOR LEAVES CITY Federal Agent Says He Can Do Nothing Now, but Will Return. James A. Smyth, mediation agent of the United States Department of Labor, who endeavored for a week to settle the strike of milk wagon drivers, departed for Washington at noon today, leaving arbitration measures in the hands of the State Board of Arbitration. C. B. Dysart, secretary of the State Board, has called a meeting. Dysart waited this afternoon at the Leclede Hotel for dairymen and strikers to attend the conference to which he had summoned them. He said he might use the board’s full powers under the law to compel attendance of the dairymen, who had notified him, through Attorney Jesse A. McDonald, that they would not come. The strikers had promised to send representatives. Smyth said before leaving that the milk strike would remain on his docket until it is settled, and that he would probably return within a week and would come sooner if there appeared to be a prospect of settlement. said the situation was ‘‘far from hope- less,”’ but he saw nothing-more to do at this time, following the failure of his intended ‘‘get-together conference’ at the Warwick Hotel yesterday. At this ‘‘conference,’’ nine dairymen gathered at one end of the hotel lobby, and nine representatives of the strikers at the other end, and exchanged diplomatic notes, with no practical result. Few Wagons Go Out. Dairymen. made little attempt to send out one-horse delivery wagons on routes this morning. The 8st. Louis Dairy Co. sent out two such wagons shortly after noon, although little de- mand for milk usually exists at that time of day. it was said at the company’s King’s highway office, was that drivers were in Police Court and at the Prosecuting Attorney's office, testifying against strikers who attacked them yesterday and the day before. Following the Warwick Hotel gather- ing, D. J. Murphy, seventh vice presi- dent of the International Teamsters’ Union, announced that unless the dairy- men yielded within a few days a gen- called, tying up food deliveries and hampering business generally. Murphy was present as one of the strikers’ rep- resentatives, and the dairymen refused to accept him as a conferee, while the strikers refused to change the person- nel of their delegation. This hitch de- feated Smyth's attempt to open negotia- tions. Murphy said the strike would come suddenly, if it came, and that it might begin with a refusal of ice wagon driv- ers to deliver ice to dairies involved in the strike. Such a move was talked of a week ago. Officials of the East St. Louis Milk Wagon Drivers’ Union said no vote aad been taken on the question of a strike tnere, and that there could be no strike | without such a vote. I’. T. Vollmer, a grocer at 6202 Colum- | bia avenue, was driving a truck load of milk from the Pevely establishment at Grand and Chouteau avenues when sev- eral men threw stones at the truck, A policeman arrested Edward Josse of 3517 Miami street, said to be a striker, and Edward MueHer of 362 Delmar boule- vard, an employe of the company, who was accused of attacking a striker. An official of the dairy company furnished bond for Mueller. Willlam Sicking of 2522 Arlington ave- nue, a striker using an automobile, placed the machine in such a position as to obstruct a.truck at the St. Louis Dairy Co. distribtting station on Twen- ty-first street and was arrested because the machine was within five feet of a fire plug. William Groteteers of 2959 Franklin avenue was arrested for defac- ing the sidewalk at the same place, when he chalked “Unfair” on the walk. Louis Schmides of 3645 Laclede avenue, a striker, was arrested cn complaint of Julius Scheske of 36:9 Garfield avenue, route boss for tho St. Louts Dairy Co. He says Schmides attacked him when he was deliverirge milk at 5038 Waterman avenue.

MANAGERS WILL ALSO BE AT THE CONFERENCE . Heads of 31 Lines Tell the President That an Eight-Hour Day Is Impracticable and That They Will Stand by Decision of Their Managers. WASHINGTON, Aug. 18.—Thirty-one railroad presidents today told President Wilson they stood by the decision of their managers’ committee that an eight-hour day was impracticable. President Wilson refused to take ‘‘no’’ for an answer to his pro- posal that they accept the eight-hour day in an effort to avert the threatened nation-wide railroad strike and asked them to re- turn to the White House tomorrow with their managers for an- other conference. Just after the railroad presidents left the White House it hbe- came known that the employes Wilson’s proposition and that some of the leaders had gone to. the White House to tell him so. had voted to accept President Mr. Wilson appealed to the presidents to reverse the stand of their managers’ committee and accept the proposal to concede the eight-hour day, regular time for overtime and have a com mission appointed by Congress to investigate the collateral issues. It was plain that the railroad presi- dents were prepared to refuse the propo- sition or ask for time to consider it. There were some indications, however, that President Wilson might move them and failing in that call in the financial powers which control the roads. When the White House conference be- gan brotherhood leaders said the men still were balloting. It was expected that they would accept President Wil- son's plan. Programme Was Arranged. Hale Holden, president of the Burling- ton, acted as spokesman for the presi- dents. It was agreed in advance that the railroad officials would listen to ‘President Wilson's presentation of his street, were hanged in the county jail at) plan. Holden would ask questions in order to make the situation clear, and the railroad presidents would return to their hotel to hold a meeting and decide on their action. It was tentatively ar- ranged that when the answer was sent to President Wilson it would be given to the public. Shortly after 9 o'clock this morning, the men assembled in executive session to vote on the plan. The railroad presidents want arbitra- tion under the Newlands act, with two arbitrators for the roads, two for the men and two for the public. The dis- position of many of them was said today to be to insist upor action of that char- acter and not to yield to President Wil- son’s plan for an eight-hour day unless it comes from an arbitration board, Some of the presidents are said to feel that the public will support their offer to arbitrate everything in dispute. Some others, however, are of the opinion that if President Wilson refuses to press the > w (+H Black.

After the employes’ meeting had been in session for an hour, one of the lead- ers came out and said sentiment for the President’s proposal was by no means to the plan had appeared. Most of them thought the proposition good in the main, but a number objected to ft. During the morning President Wilson prepared a statement reviewing the ne- gotiations and explaining why he chore the plan of settlement based on the eight-hour day. The statement proba- bitration. He decided finally that this was absolutely impossible and then de- termined on the proposal laid before the employes. The conference between the President and the general committee of employes yesterday lasted about an hour. After the members of the committee had as- sembled in the east room they were introduced to the President by A. B. Garretson, their spokesman. In a short speech, Garretson pointed out that the l'resident’s position in summoning rep- resentatives of a large number of work- ingmen to the White House without others present for a discussion of « la- bor problem stood unparalleled. The employes remained undemonstra- tive during the remarks of Garretson and the President. At the conclusion of the meeting they formed in line and shook hands with Mr. Wilson. In his talk to the men the President explained his feeling that a strike must be avoided at any cost because of the disastrous effect on the country. He then said that after reviewing the sit- fuation thoroughly with the smail com- mittees representing the employers and the employes, he had drawn up «a plan which he thought was fair to both sides and which he hoped would be accepted by both. The President declared he believed in the principle of the eight-hour day and that he thought the greater part of the people of the United States held a sim- llar view. He also sought to impress on the men that he knew what it meant to work for a living. He sald he had learned early in life the trials of “mak-. ing both ends meet.” Favors a Commiseston, Regarding the collateral President admitted that he loss to say how they should {ft the question of would have to ask help him decide what At the conclusion of the Presidents talk the four brotherheod heads quer- tioned him in order to bring out al) the points for the benefit of the members of Thirty-Six German and Austrien Ships.

Yet Help Allies’ Cause Onfy One Phase ail of Big Offensive By Frank H. Simonds. HE Battle of the Somme opened on T the first day of July; tomorrow, then, will mark the end of the seventh week. We have now the as- surance of American correspondente, who have just visited the German lines, that the attack has failed. How far is this an accurate statement, both as to what has happened and as a reasonabiy credible forecast of the future? The best answer is Verdun. The at- tack there began on Feb. 21. It was asserted by the correspondent who vis. ited the Verdun sector on April 6 that the French had stopped the German attack permanently, in so far as the at- tack was a piercing attack. The French officers, who he saw both in the Verdun sector and in Paris were agreed in @he first week of April that the dan- ger of a German thrust through the French lines had failed. Their words were made good by the very sharp check which came to the Germans in their great effort of April 9. We may say that on April 9, which was 48 days after the opening of the German attack upon Verdun, its failure as a piercing operation was established. In a word, in seven weeks after they had been menaced by a deadly thrust, the French restored what they have since officially described as ‘‘a delicate situation.”” What they had been able to do, actually, was to get the guns an‘! munitions as well as the men needed to hold new lines; they had constructed the new lines and henceforth remained to the Germans the chance to take trenches, to blast their way foot by foot and yard by yard forward, at the cost of large casualties and with the only possible profit the exhaustion of French reserves and the depression of French confidence and courage. Tables Have Turned. In a very odd way the tables have now turned. If you should take the trouble to go back to the official state- ments of last April, May and June, you would find that the Germans were then saying exactly what the French and British are now saying and the French were then asserting as to their lines in the Verdun sector what the Germans are proclaiming as to their front along the Somme. We know now that the French were right and the Germans were wrong. We know that the Germans did not, after their April reverse, have any chance to get through, and they have failed and similar operation at the Somme is co- lossal, and we read, particularly in the French reports, that owing to French artillery preparation, French losses were slight, which is just what the Germans were telling us about Verdun a few | months ago. We are bound to conclude, so far as it is wise or fair to reason by analogy, that the German statement that the al- lied thrust in the Somme sector has failed, as the Germans got through the Russian lines at the Dunajec in the spring of 1915, and as the Russians have got through the Austrian lines this sum- mer. We are bound to believe that what- ever of progress the British and French now make in taking trenches, the Ger- mans have had the time to get new lines down, to mass new batteries of ar- tillery and can reasonably hope to re- peat the French success at Verdun in holding their lines. Now all this has thrown the allies back upon a second line of argument. This again is familiar. When they failed to get through to Verdun by their Feb- ruary thrust, by their March effort and by the culminating attack of April 9, the Germans told the world that the operation had become one of siege, with flow, methodical artillery preparation and small but steady gain. This they did. keep up from April to July, when the Somme operation compelled them to abandon the offensive at the Meuse. Then the Germans asserted they were using up the last French reserve and be- hind these France was wearying of the war and longing for peace. About the same arguments now come from London and from Paris. So far then, the two great efforts stand on all fours. The German attac« upon Verdun, which failed, followed ex- actly the same course that has subse- quently been followed by the Somme at- tack, its phases were almost identical and there is no reason to doubt that the actual result, so far as the Somme sector is concerned, is likely to be the same. It remains possible that the Brit- ish will get Bapaume and the French Peronne just as everyone recognized that the Germans might ultimately get the remaining French forts on the. east bank of the Meuse above the town of Verdun, but it has become excessively improbable that the allies will get to St. Quentin or Cambrai, as it was simi- larly unlikely, after April 9, that the Germans would get to Bar-le-Duc. Part of Big Plan. | of the army of the Potomac may be per- | exhaust Confederate numbers, prevent the reinforcement of the armies before Thomas and Sherman and ultimately make possible tnese victories in the other fields, which actualy settled the issue of the Civil War before Appomatox. All this the Somme offensive may not do; no considerable part of the mission formed by the armies of Foch and Haig. We cannot judge of this as-yet, nor for many months. But we can see where the parallel is good, where it is impres- sive. We can see that if the Russians’ get Lemberg and reach the San or the Hungarian plain, if the Italians get Trieste or Laibach, if the army of Sar- rail returns to the Danube, the total cause of the allies will have profited immeasurably, the contribution of the French and British in the West will have been tremendous, even if they do not gain another mile or another wrecked village. The Germans seem to be speaking with truthfulness and we are bound to listen to what they say, as to the check to allied purpose in the west, so far as this purpose was to pierce their lines. We are bound to accept it because it its nothing more or less than what we ail said about Verdun, accepting the French statements and the words of our own correspondents. But we must all recog- nize the fundamental distinction between the Verdun and the Somme operations, which lies in the fact that Verdun was an end in itself of the single purpose on which all German effort was concentrat- ed, while the Somme is one phase of a grandiose and continent-wide attack. “Battle of Europe” Now, Whether this continent-wide attack Is to succeed or fail is a matter that we cannot even guess about, because we lack convincing evidence. It has so far suceseded tremendously, measured by prisonérs captured, guns and munitions and forts taken; 400,000 prisoners alone in the 10 weeks of offensive is a staggering blow, joined to a loss of men by wounds which cannot be less and may be more. More than three-quarters of a million Germans and Austrians, mostly Austri- ans, have gone out of the battle line since June 1. The allied losses are ap- portioned among four mations, not two. and no considerable number of allied prisoners have been claimed by the cen- tral Powers. Unly by Keeping the whole field in mind now shall we be able to estimate rightly the actual situation and escapes attaching too much importance to any one department. It is the battle of Eu- rope, not the battle of the Somme, that is to be considered. 8 MEN IN SEDALIA JAIL ESCAPE Prisoners Force Steel Bars With Iron Bed Rails. SEDALIA, Mo., Aug. 18.—Eight of the 16 prisoners in the county jail here es- caped at 3 o’clock this morning by fore- ing apart the steel bars with parts of iron beds. The police fired several] shots at two prisoners as they fled. TI today by a committee of 30 and escorted to San Francisco, where he will remain for two days. Interest centers in the big public megt- ing tonight, over which W. F. Crocker, Republican National Committeeman, -: tu preside. A conflict between Republic- an and Progressive leaders exists and Mr. Hughes is to try to unite the two factions. Gov. Hiram W. Johnson, as both a Progressive and a Republican candidate for United States Senator, will not be present. Chester H. Rowell, former Progressive leader, told the nominee at Medford yesterday that Johnson had not been invited to the meeting tonight and his presence was “highly undegirable.’’ The meeting arranged for Los An- geles Monday night, Rowell told the nominee, similarly had been left en- tirely in the hands of regular Republi- cans and that the Progressive element there was ‘“‘resentful’’ because of this arrangement. A written protest against the plan to entertain and banquet Hughes here Saturday at the Commercial Club was made by the striking San Francisco culinary workers’ union. a President Vetoes Army Bill Because of ‘Retired’ Clause Continued From Page One, the uniform of his grade, should be borne on the Army Register and should be subject to the rules and articles of war, and to trial by general courtmar- tial for any breach of these articles. By the act of July 24, 1876, officers of the army on the retired list were specifically declared to constitute a part of the reg- ular army, a provision which is found repeated in subsequent acts affecting the organization of the army, and other statutes enacted during this period made retired officers of the army available for certain classes of active duty, in time of peace with their consent, and in time of war without their consent. Authority Is Increased, “By the recently enacted national de- fense act, the authority of the Presi- dent over retired officers has been fur- ther extended so as to make them sub- ject to his call in time of war for any kind of duty without any restriction whatever. Courts and Attorneys-Gen- eral have in a long line of. decisiens held that officers of the army on the retired list hold public office. “It thus appears that both the lezgis- lative and judicial branches have drawn & sharp distinction in status between re- tired officers, who are regarded and gov- erned at all times as an effective re- serve of skilled and experienced officers and a potential source of military Strength, and mere pensioners from whom no further military service is ex- pected. “Officers on the retired list of the army are officers of the army, mem- bers of the military establishment dis- tinguished by their long service, and as such, examples of discipline to the of- ficers and men in the active army. Moreover, they wear the uniform of the army, their education and service hold them out as persons especially quaii- fied in military matters to represent the spirit of the military establishment, and they are subject to active duty in time of national emergency by the mere crder of the Commander in Chief. ‘They are, therefore, members of tha army, officers of the United States, ex- emplars of discipline and have in their keeping the good name and the good spirit of the entire military establish- ment before the world. Occupying such a relation, their subjection to the rules and articles of war and to trial by gen- eral courtmartials have always been re- Dispatch and the New York World. (Copyright, 1916, by Press Pub, Co.) GERMAN CORPS HEADQUARTERS, NEAR GOMMECOURT, Aug. HM, by courier to Berlin, via Amsterdam and London, Aug. 18—A wide -path of havoc, devastation and desolation ¢x- tends for many miles behind the Somme- Ancre battle line. From Roye on the south to above Arras on the north it is a continuous picture of desolation. None of the tornado and cyclone wrecked towns that I have ever seen in the Middle Western States presented such scenes of destruction. I was in the San Francisco earth- quake and fire. These villages and towns, in the most beautiful and fer- tile section of France, through which I have passed in the last few days, are minute replicas of what San Francisco was then, only more complete. The French, from what I have seen, appear to still exercise some restraint in shelling the towns and villages which, after all, are their or», contenting themselves upon occasion with a few shells to make the places uncomfort- able for possible troops. Roye is partially in ruins, tl.ough about 1¢0% French still cling to their homes. Peronne is burning, being shelled daily. Bapaume is a picture of destruc- tion. Some 400 of the papulation re- fused to leave, living like cave dwellers in cellars on the edge of the town. A French writer recently suggested that the strip of trenches and battle- fields, from Switzerland to the. sea, be made into a grand avenue of victory in commemoration of the war. A grand cypresses of Boecklin’s paintings, would be more fitting, I walked through miles of trenches today around Heduterne and Gomme- court, six to eight feet deep and four to six feet wide at the top. Within the district commanded by one regiment were 15 miles of these zig-sag trenches. This army alone has close to 300 miles of trenches, and that is only a narrow sector in the persent battle line. More than 2,000,000 men on both sides have otten worked day and night during two yer~s digging these ‘trenches and con- #tructing bomb proofs, many of them 2+ feet deep and reinforced with timber and concrete. We started out at 4 o’clogk this morn- ing, Capt. Count Limbourg and a Cap- tain detailed from this corps staff sug- gesting we take advantage of the cover and the light of the morning to get up close to the British trenches. We walked toward Gommecourt, which forms the extreme northern point of the Anglo-French offensive in the battle of the Somme, though the opening six days of d.umming by the allies’ artillery ex- tended even up to Arras. This was to keep the Germans guessing as to what points the real on.>t would come, Nearing Gommecourt, with Hebuterne on our left, we came across soldiers plowing the fields, and others gathering a crop of oats under cover of che fog, almost within rifle range of the British trenches. Only during the foggy hours of the morning and the nights are the horses which draw the cannon turned into peaceful plow animals. The moment the — ~~ garded as necessary in order that the re- tired might not become a source of tendencies which would weaken the dis- cipline of the active land forces and im- ;air that control over those force? which the Constitution vests in the Pres- ident. “The purpose of the articles of war ir times of peace is to bring about a uniformity in the application of military discipline which will make the entire oiganization coherent and effective and to engender a spirit of co-operation and proper subordination to authority which will in time of war instantly make the entire army a unit in its purpose of self- sacrifice and devotion to duty in the national defense. These purposes can- not be accomplished if the retired offi- cers, still a part of the military estab- lishment, still relied upon to perform important duties, are excluded, upon retirement, from the wholesome and uni- fying effect’ of this subjection to a com- mon discipline. I am persuaded that officers upon the retired list would themselves regaTd it as an invidious and unpalatable discrimination which in effect excluded them from full member- ship in the profession to which they have laws of their country they are still members. So long as Congress sees fit to make the retired personnel a part of the army of the United States, the con- stitutionality of the proposed exemp- tion of such personnel from all liabil- ity under the articles of war is a mat- ter of serious doubt, leaving the Presi- dent. as it does, without any means sanctioned ‘by statute of exercising over the personnel thus exempted the power of command vested in him by the con- stitution. “Convinced as I am of the unwisdom of this provision and of itsy baneful ef- fect upon the discipline of the army, dcubting as I do the power of Congress wholly to exempt retired officers from the control of the President while de- claring them to be a part of the regular army of the United States, I am con- strained to return this bill without my approval.”’ There have been broad intimations that the revision which proposed to re- move retired officers from the jurisdic- tion of courtsmartial was in the inter- est of a certain retired officer who was waiting for a time when he would be immune from discipline to make a pub- lic attack on the army.

After they left the White House the men were in conference for two hours at their hall, but decided to delay a formal decision until today. Optimism marked every move of the brotherhood men during the day. They were pleased over the President’s plan as outlined to them by their leaders in informal conferences and appeared to like it even better after their meeting with the President and the two frank discussions of the situation among themselves. One of the railway presidents, when asked whether they were prepared to accept the suggestions of President Wil- son, said: " “We may have some arguments to put forward ourselves that he has not yet considered. Whatever the President asks us to do, I am convinced he will ask in good faith, and personally I think he would sink his political future rather than play politics in a question affecting ‘tthe nation as this does. “If he can be brought to see that our demand is just he would side with cap- ital and let the people judge him on election day. ‘The railroad employes are really asking for increased wages. Maybe they ought to have it. But let us have someone to arbitrate the matter and see if they should. Mr. Wilson will not put us before the people as ‘capital defying the people’s will’ if he thinks our insistence upon arbitration on the question is just.” CHEMIST TELLS OF FEEDING. 1000 MEN AT $12.50 A DAY Speaker at Meeting of Therapeutic Association at Nevada, Mo., Does This One Month Each Year. NEVADA, Mo., Aug. 18.—The annual convention of the American Suggestive Therapeutical Association, in session at the Weltmer Institute here for four days, came to an end this morning. Del- egates were here from every state in the union and from several foreign coun- tries. Nevada was selected as the meet- ing place for 1917. Officers chosen n- elude: President, George F. Negaard, D. 8S. T., Brainard, Minn.; first vice president, Prof. Sidney A. Weltmer, Ne- vada; second vice president, Dr. Eugene Christian, New York; secretary, S. W. Weltmer, Nevada; treasurer, A. E. Pinckney, Nevada. The closing address was by Dr. Eugene Christian, a noted New York food chem- ist. Dr. Christian told of concentrating his charity for each year in the month before Christmas, when he annually feeds 1000 unemployed men three meals daily. Last year, Dr. Christian said, the most of feeding the thousand did not ex- ceed $12.50 a day,.or only one and one- fourth cents & man. During the time he is feeding the unemployed, Dr. Chris- tian stated, he himself lives entirely on the food he gives the men and he there- fore knows It is sufficient to sustain life.

Striking milkmen wil] endeavor to fensive against the Austro-Hungarian 7 have the charge against George Schneid- troops is being conducted, according to Austrian officers returned from _ the front, with tactics that hardly have a precedent. These tactics are, briefly, to annihilate the Austrians by forcing Russian sol- Giers to advance in their own artillery fire, drawing the Austrians from their bomb and shell proof shelters into hand- to-hand combat, and then mowing down roth Austrians and Russians by a with- ering drumfire. Great Russian losses, it is claimed, are due to this method. The Russian method of attack in the BRukowina and Volhynia, the Austrians say, consists of artillery preparation lasting from 24 to 48 hours. Then come the first Russian infantry troops, in from six to 14 rows, driven forward by Russian machine guns and by Cossacks armed with the dreaded ‘‘Nagaikas’’ or lead-tipped whips. As they advance the Russian artillery fire abates somewhat, but between it and the Austrian fire from 40 to 50 per cent of the first troops sometimes reach the trenches. Their arrival naturally forces the Austrians to abandon their shelters, and as soon as they do so the Russian drumfire begins again.

EXPERTS DEVISE REGULATIONS 10 CHECK PARALYSIS Conference Adopts Report Rec- ommending Close Watch on Interstate Travel. WASHINGTON, Aug. 18.—Warning that the infantile paralysis epidemic may appear next sum.ner in other states not gravely affected now unless drastic measures are taken to control its course was given today to the na- tional conference of public health of- ficers by the special committee named to recommend ways and means for its suppression. The committee recommended that state health authorities be notified by uniform health certificates of removal of all children under 16 years of age from epidemic areas. Quarantine of one state or community against another was disapproved. The committee recommend- ed that during the unusual prevalence of infantile paralysis schools should not be opened without medical supervision by a health authority. “When schools are opened,’’ the com- mittee recommended, ‘‘beginnings should be made with high schools and proceed- ing to lower age groups no more rapid- ly than complete medical examinations can be made.”’ Certificates to Travel. Certificates for interstate travel, the committee held, should be signed by Federal or state health officers. “Certificates of private physicians will not alone be a sufficient basis for the issue of a permit to travel,’”’ the report said. “Permits for interstate travel should be based on medical examina- tion, It is said that the Federal Gov- ernment can perform all duties of noti- fication and certification required in in- terstate relations in case of unusual prevalence of infantile paralysis.” The committee report was adopted with unimportant changes and the con- feronce virtually was concluded. A standing committee to study the dis- ease throughout the country and furnish reports to Federal and state authorities was named, consisting of Dr. St. Clair Drake of Illinois, chairman; Dr. T. D. Tuttle of Washington, Dr. C. W. Gar- rison of Arkansas, Dr. W. B. Collins of Texas and Dr. D. N. Roberg of Ore- gon. Assistant Surgeon-General W. C. Rucker, who, with Acting Surgeon- General A. H. Glennan, presided over the conference yesterday, gave out the following synoposis of the views of the speakers: Against Opening Schools. “It appears to be the consensus of opinion that segregation of per- sons with the disease is desirable and that opening of schools is in- advisable. Travel is dangerous when it permits movement of acute or chronic carriers of the disease. The evidence is against insect trans- mission, and transmission by food is hypothetical.” Reporting on a scientifie study of symptoms and control of the epi- demic in New York, conducted by many state, city and Federal scien- tists. Surgeon Wade Frost of the Pul Health Service said: “Frankly we don't know how the disease is transmitted, nor its cause. The evidence strongly points to per- sons as the carriers.” “The evidence is that it is purely a ruman disease and if contagious a large proportion of persons exposed are im- mune. It must be spread very largely from sources other than sick persons, mostly by adults. Against that is the known seasonal prevalence. Our the- ories do not exclude transmission by in- sects. Transmission by the lower ani- inals is hypothetical. We hardly sus- pect any but dogs and cats. Its rapid spread indicates human carriers.”’ Severe in Rural Districts. Despite the New York epidemic, he said, the most striking characteristic of the disease is that it is must severe in rural communities, rather than in cities. He said 9 per cent of cases occurred among children under 10 years old and that 75 to 90 per cent of infections can Greeks Are “Savingest” of Them All, Says Banker Retired After 5 7 : Years James W.

Bell, 90 years old, of WH Westminster Place, who has just re- signed as manager of the savings de- partment of the Mercantile Trust Co., after having been connected with banks in the city for 80 years. Practically all his life he has been trying to persuade St. Louisans to save money and trying to learn why they don't save. Many have been induced by him to become Savers by habit, but he is still seeking the explanation of the backwardness of the citizens to prepare for a rainy day. Bell has the figures to prove that St Louisans are not as thrifty as the peo- ple of other cities. He estimates that the savings of St. Louisans are about $30,000,000, while one bank in Cleveland, the Society of Savings, has deposits of $56,000,000, and the Society of Savings of Philadelphia and the Bowery Bank of New York each have more than $100, - 000,000 of savings deposits, while the total savings deposits in New York are ee $800,000,000. Chicago has $187,000, - Getting More Thrifty. “But St. Louis is doing better,” Bell said yesterday to a Post-Dispatch re- porter. ‘The people are saving more than they used to. When I began in 1859 trying to get them to save it was uphill work. I began by organizing a savings department in the foundry with which I was connected. The men were encouraged to leave a little of their earnings each week to their credit with the company. The plan was working pretty well when the war necessitated the closing down of the foundry. “Twenty-five years ago, when I start- ed the St. Louis Safe Deposit and Sav- ings Bank at 518 Locust street it was still hard work to get people to save, but I persisted. The little savings banks were put in circulation and in 11 years the savings accumulated through these were more than $2,000,000! “Foreigners who come here are the best savers. Formerly the Irish did the most saving. They were succeeded by the Italians and now the Greeks save most. Chinamen are good savers and excellent depositors, causing little trou- ble by checking in and out. Poles also are good savings depositors. Married Women as Depositors, ‘Two-thirds of the savings depositors are women, who are permitted by their husbands to open the savings accounts in their own names. “One woman, who was the second de- positor when the St. Louis Safe Deposit and Savings Bank opened for business, — es an Strauss portrait, made two years ago. JAMES W. BELL. on Sept. 2, 1891, continued to be a sav- ings depositor until the institution was consolidated with the Mercantile Trust Co., in 1901, and is still a savings de- positor with the Mercantile. She draws part of her savings as she has occasion, from time to time, but usually has more than $1000 to her credit. Many savings accounts of the old company are still carried by the Mercantile. “All persons dependent upon their in- come should save methodically a per- centage of that income, weekly or monthly. It is difficult to say what the percentage should be. It is not pos- sible to lay down a hard and fast rule, because circumstances vary, but I should say the savings should be 6 to 10 per cent of the earnings.” In all his busy lifetime Bell has taken only one long vacation. That was when, in 1880 and 1881, he took a trip around the world. In the past 20 years he has been out of the city only four days. That was when his daughter, Mrs. H. P. Johnson of Memphis, built a new home and prevailed upon him to come and see it. sle was responsible for the trust com- panies establishing savings departments. He persuaded John T. Davis to open a savings department in connection with the St. Louis Trust Co. and the others quickly fell in line. Although he does not seem more than 7 years old, his long life and vigor are not due to following any rules of living. He has worked hard always and has lived simply and naturally, with walking as his only exercise. He was presented yesterday with a loving cup by the officers and directors of the Mercantile Trust Co. eel be traced to previous cases of direct contact. There are few infections of persons exposed in their own families, he said. -Dr. George Draper of the New York Health Board said quarantine of par- alyzed persons is not effective against transmission. He said milk possibly is a source of infection. At first negroes were believed immune, but cases lately have appeared among that race, he said.

JADED GOTHAMIS: TREATED 10 A PLAY THAT'S “DIFFERENT “Turn to the Right,” a Farce, Makes Big Hit at Open- ing Performance. By Leased Wire From the New York Bureae of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Aug. 18.—It has remained for Winchell Smith and John F. Hazzard —the first is one of the co-authors of “The Boomerang,” the second is an actor —to write this season's “different” play. Not in a year has there been such sin- cerity in an audience's applause as that which accompanied the first perform- ance of “Turn to the Right” at the Gaiety Theater last night. And every handclap was legitimately earned by the authors and actors. On the “prodigal son” formula of «a “way down East,"’ this Smith-Hazzard fun syndicate has engrafted a “Get- Rich-Quick Wallingford.” Not one de- tall of the ancient sentimental “me mother” melodrama has been missed— from the prodigal'’s return and the even- ing prayer to the peach jam and the mortgage on the old farm—but also not one element of amiable and humorous crook comedy has been overlooked. The combination, after all, is sheer farce. Nething like it could actually have hap- pened under the sun. But it is a med- ley to dim the eyes of sophisticated playgoers with joy. The Mortgaged Peach Farm. The prologue in an Ossining pawnshop, with the unjustly convicted prodiga) just released from prison, was a bit ominous. Here was the “held out to temptation” theme with a vengeance. The return to the mortgaged peach farm, just in time to thwart the skin, In the village deacon, into whose clutches had fallen the Frau's widowed mother—her pain- making abilities were only exceeded by her righteousness—was equally disturb- ing. But when the prodigal’s two crook friends drop off a conveniently stalled freight train to taste rural domestic life and peach jam for the first time—here was undiluted joy. The scene at the dinner table, in which the crooks resolved to rob the deacon’s “general store’ in order to pay the debt the widow owed him—afterward they rough-housed the money away from him and put it back in the store—swerved “Turn to Right” into the straight. road to success. An almost equally funny third act, crammed with amusing carica- tures and humorous observation fol- lowed. Well-Balanced Cant. The cast was nearly ideal for a play of this kind. In an entirely different way William FE. Meehan and Frank Nel- son, as the two crooks, paralleled the hit in “Potash and Perlmutter” made by Rarney Bernard and Julius Tannen two seasons ago. Forrest Winant was excel- lent as the prodigal. Ruth Chester was typically the ‘mother’ of rural melo- drama. Then, too, there were Samuel Reed as the deacon and Edgar Nelson as the village fat boy, not to mention Loutse Rutter, Lucy Colton and Alice Hastings—all capital—as the simpering village maidens. No one will grudge the laughter he bestows upon the truly humorous lines of this diverting play. er Dies of Runawsey Hert, The Goronet’s office was notified to- day that John Green, 6&2 years old, a farmer of Pacific, Mo., died yesterday at St. John’s Hospital, from a frac- tured skull, sustained when his horse ran away near Catawissa a week ago and dragged him.

Caddies Give Their Aid. Caddies of the Algonquin Club, about 35 young boys, are represented in to- day’s acknowledgements of contributions t> the Pure Milk and Free Ice Fund in the sum of $5. This was raised through the co-operation of a member of the club, who donated a golf stick for dis- position as arranged by the caddies. This was done on the basis of 10 cents, and the cherished article came into pos- session of the youngest of the boys, about 10 years old. Paul and Virginia Freund of 3647 La- fayette avenue and Helen and Arthur Fitzsimmons of 3615 Lafayette, who have for some years past regularly and effi- clently supported the cause of the poor babies, conducted a lemonade stand, where they also sold soda water, at Grand and Lafayette avenues, the pro- ceeds totaling $3.20. In forwarding this sum the youthful philanthropists wrote that they hope to continue their work for the noble cause for many years to come. Another lemonade stand for the same cause and by children who are among the army of regular workers, was op- erated at 6215 Washington boulevard by little Misses Sarah and Florence Wil- lisms of the number given and Alice Sheehan of 6239 re boulevard, their enterprise adding $2.25 to the Funds Six little girls and one boy gave a charming show for the benefit of the poor babies at 1309 South Boyle avenue, entertaining a large and deeply inter- ested audience with impressive songs, dances, ete,, cleverly done. The pro- ceeds aggregated $1.62. These little de- pendable friends of the babies are Ellen Cuittar, Pearl Aubuchon, Laura Wry- coff, Loretta Guittar, Hazel Williams, May Guittar and Leroy Guittar. Others Are Active. Two workers for the Pure Milk and Free Ice Fund living in Webster Groves earned $1 by selling lemonade and flow- ers, the latter grown in their yard. They write to the Post-Dispatch: “Please buy some milk for the poor babies.”” This note was signed by Margaret M. Mce- Clure of 137 Elm avenue, Webster Groves, and Eddy V. Atwood of Carth- age, ll., who is a guest in the McClure home.

Heath, at a bridge party given by the bride-elect to about 2 of her friends. The place cards, flowers and all the appointments at the party were in pink. Miss MacCarthy is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John H. MacCarthy of 4959 Park View place. Mr. Heath is the son of Mr. and Mrs. W. L. Heath of Webster Groves. He is in the real estate business and is well known as a swimmer. He held the na- tional championship for 10 and 5 miles in 1912, was Western champion for all distances for several years. He is an active member of the Missouri Athletic Association, Mr. Heath has been Miss MacCarthy's cavalier for about two years. When he failed for the first time in a number of years to enter the swimming conteat this summer and it was learned that he had bought out his business partner and was too busy to train, the rumor of the engagement became persistent. The marriage probably will be in the au- tumn. The marriage of Miss Marion Bond, daughter of Judge and Mrs. Henry W. Bond, to William DeForest Crowell has been set for Oct. 17. It will be a church wedding and will be one of the notable nuptial events of the early season. The engagement was announced re- cently at Naragansett, R. I., where Miss Bond is with her parents. Mr. Crowell! also is spending the summer there. ——- Mrs. R. O. Kendall and her young daughter, Miss Florence Kendall, are ex- pected to arrive this evening to be the guests of Mrs. Kendall’s sister, Mrs. Joseph F. Liebke, and Mr. Liebke at their home in Normandy. Mr. and Mrs. James Francis Murphy of 6339 Maple avenue and Miss Mar- garet and Elizabeth Murphy have re- turned from Colorado Springs, Colo., where they spent about a month. Dr. and Mrs. W. G.

MANY WOMEN GO TO SEE “WHERE ARE MY CHILDREN?” Film at New Grand Central Is of ’ropaganda Sort, but Well Constructed, Women were greatly in the majority in the capacity gatherings at the New Grand Central Theater last night, when the film ‘‘Where Are My Children?’ had its first St. Louis presentation. This film is of the sort intended to in- struct, rather than to entertain, but it is superior in dramatic construction to most picture-plays of the propaganda variety. Richard Walton, District Attorney, wonders dumbly, through years of mar- ried life, why no child comes to his home, As a part of his official duty, he prosecutes a conscientious physician who has circulated birth control liter- ature among the poor. At the same time, Mrs. Walton is spreading anti- motherhood ideas among social butter- flies, and is practicing birth control to the point of elimination, with the aid of a physician who is not conscientious. Walton at length has to prosecute this physician for homicide, and he then learns whey he is childless. Returning home, he drives out a parlorful of women, and puts to his wife the question which forms the play’s title. Vain efforts to atone for the past, anda child- less old age, form the sequel. A symbolical introduction carries out the fanciful idea that the souls of chil- dren are pressing against the gates of some ethereal realm, seeking release in the form of earthly birth. Tyrone Power, in the leading role, is a strong and dignified figure. There is too much getting into and out of automobiles. This five-reel film does not appear to have been unusually expensive in the making, but the management has ad- vanced the prices of cadmission, and last night's crowd seemed willing enough 3 to pay the higher price. MAN BELIEVES HE WAS ROBBED First Said Money Was All Right, Then Accused Policeman. Two patrolmen at 8 o’clock this morn- ing found William White of Cincinnati asleep on the sidewalk in front of 13816 Chestnut street. They awoke him and asked him if,he had been robbed. He searched his pockets and after count- ing $4.10, said his money was all right. An hour later White approached the two policemen at Twelfth and Chest- nut streets and accused them of having robbed him of a gold watch and $40. They took him to police headquarters and told him to repeat the charge. ‘Well, somebody must have robbed me,”’ he said. He was ordered held for in- vestigation. COUPLE TAKEN FROM AUTO Man Sent to City Hospital—Police Question Wife. Charies D. Wahles, a life insurance agent, living at the Oliver Hotel, 914 North Grand avenue, and his wife were taken by policemen from an au- tomobile which Wahles was driving at Kine’s highway and Delmar boule- vard about 1 o’clock this morning when the policemen noticed that the man’s face was blood-stained. : Wahles was sent to the city hos- pital and the wife, after making a statement to policemen at the Lac- lede Avenue Station, was sent homo. She said her husband took her to a St. Louls County resort last night and that he met some etrangers there. She said she supposed one of these men struck him tn the face. | Diamond Rings, Pay 81 a Week.

The Missouri men in Laredo are now becoming accustomed to the Rio Grande climate and, despite all re- ports to the contrary, are beginning to like it, In the first place, while people in Chicago and St. Louis are sweltering during the night, every Laredo night is cool and some are actually chilly. The men have not had a hot night since they have been here. And in the day time, while the sun is undoubted- ly hot, there is usually a breeze.

Since May ‘they have been here Laredo and, while your “‘regular’’ in- dulges little in “‘kicking,"’ there isn’t a man that wouldn't be as giad to be back at Fort Myer as your St. Louis guardsman longs for a glance at Grand and Olive. One of the main benefits that Mis- souri artillery men have gained from their stay with these batteries has been a realization of the value of discipline, The idea isn't that a man will be punished for infractions of the code. but that there is a certain amount of werk that must be done. If everybody jumps in and starts to work, the job will be soon finished and all the men will have more time to themselves, but if all jump in and shirk imstead of work, the men will be working and shirking all day long—and it is almost as much trouble to shirk as it is to work.

As there are only two regular bat- teries of field artillery in Laredo (the Other red hat cords being worn by coast artillery men) there has been some talk of having A Battery camp with the regulars to form a batalion. This would be a compliment to the St. Louis battery, and would give that body a chance for such a training as they could never obtain eleswhere. The regular batteries recently removed their camp from Fort McIntosh to Goat Hill, on the other side of town. Their old tents had wooden frames and floors and were surrounded by grass and trees and covered with vines. To cut down this foliage and to move to a barren stretch of sand was a heart- breaking move, and the men felt keen- ly on the subject; but “orders are or- ders,"’ and with hardly an audible grum- ble the tents were lined up on Goat Hill. ‘| The castor beans from the old trees were Planted around them, and in about a week the first tiny sprigs of the trees poked their heads out of the freshly ir- rigated ground and soon the tents will be again covered with shade. Before that time, new orders may break up their camp again, but if they stay on the hill they will be comfortable in time, which is better than not planting seeds because you may move. The tents, when they were moved, were lifted on to large army motor trucks, and overlapping the machines, they sailed through town like a cruise of the New York Yacht Club.

Just a word to those who may blame the driv- ers for the condition now existing. A copy of the agreement which we are holding out for was mailed to each of the dairy companies cn July 6. Now each boss could tell after reading the agreement whether our demands were unreason- able or exorbitant as they claim. If they found them to be as they say, why 4id not they offer us some kind of compromise, and ask to arbi- trate the matter, like the gentlemen we pre- sumed they were? instead of doing this, they ab- solutely ignored our agreement and did not even acknowledge receipt of it. This action alone Graws the conclusion that their intentions were and are to break up our organization. If they had wished to come to a settlement with us they had all of July to arbitrate it: tut since they re- fused and continue to refuse to even meet our representatives, I fail to see where we are to tiame. To you who have a hard time in obtaining your necessary supply, I suggest that you ask the dairy bosses why they did not hold their daily meet- ings in July, and we would have been still serv- ing you with milk. Even if the companies do hold out for another week, there still would have been time to reach an agreement before Aug. 1. Then there would have teen no strike and no lockout, no suffering babies, nor at least one widow. RAY H. WEEK. Plower Flag for Forest Park. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. _ While driving through Forest Park last even- ing I had a little idea come to me. Do you not think {t would be appropriate, as well as beauti- ful, to have a United States flag made of small- Jeaf plants on the hillside of the rest station, - facing the lake; I mean the station near the bird cage? I think it is a beautiful spot and would be an ideal place for our flag. I hope my sug- gestion will tbe considered. ROLAND G. WETS. Appeal for French Hospitals. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Will you kindly allow me to appeal for help for the many hundreds of hospitals in France that need more surgical dressings? America is giving to this work, but the length of the war and ite terrible consequences make all that has been Gone seem like a drop in the bucket. I have crossed the Atlantic 11 times since the war tegan, only to feel each time that I return here how much more all liberty-loving Ameri- cans would give if they could but conceive how France is battling for liberty. The French section of the Surgical Dressings Committee needs at once, and for each week that the war lasts, 8000 yards of gause, over and above what is coming ffom America. Dressings for wounded men are essential. Supplies here are growing scarce. Please give $1 a month. It will buy gause, and it will pay euffering women 80 cents a day te make the gause into dressings. Send your con- tribution to Mrs. Mary Hatch Willard, tnternation- al chairman, 256 Fifth avenue,.New York, marked for the onvroir (workroom) of the French sec- tion, or send in a registered letter to Mme. C. K. Austin, head of the French seGtion, 118 rue de la Faisanderis, Paris. Your contribution will be acknowledged, and every penny of it will go direct to relieve suf- fering that is beyond understanding unless one is on this invaded and blood-soaked soll.

Failing tn their efforts to have the Gunday ice wagons stopped, it seems as though the dealers have adopted another course—that of raising the price—in their attempt to eliminate any opposi- tion they have in St. Louis. Tt ie an outrage and a shame to think that a Tesident of a city the size of St.,Louls cannot purchase ice on Sunday. The Sunday iceman is as necessary during this hot weather as the drug store or other places where medical aid can be received, as there are thousands of people whose refrigrators will not hold a supply from Satur- @ay until Monday. Again, the little children and sick people, whose very life depends on this necessity, are de- prived of it through the selfishness of a few who ae control the situation. If we had the proper ame officials here who | he peop peor class— they would demand that this be stopped = r the offenders leave the city. » the dealers furnish ice at a reasonatie . “e 8, #0 that myself and 80 per cent of the | Viving in view of my flat can purchase mug te tide them, over these hot Sundays. W. RH, - . a ES ae ae ee * aid es ) ? bs “hes ‘pee ae he Se OURIOUS WEATHER FAOTS. In the summer of 1914, says the Schlesische Zeitung of Breslau, we enjoyed a cool and com- paratively rainless season, while the Western Hemisphere languished under suffocating heat. Last year the Buropean summer set in early and continued hot and dry, while the other side of the globe shivered in protracted cold and a never-ending downpour. This year, after one of the eight warmest win- ters Huropean history knows, summer was delayed until June and July, and when the sun began showing an excess of heat, Burope began to be deluged with unwonted rains, to an exterit that in all of June we have had only three rainless days, end in July four, while America has sweltered tn an unbroken spell of phenomena! heat. In Burope the crops have been ruined by too much rain; in America—we surmise, we have not learned—they have been burned to some notable extent. The earth is round. While one side is shiv- ering with cold, the other is transpiring with ex- cessive calorics. Is it not wonderful, though, that such a palpable series of phenomena should escape the reach of our scientists? Neither sunspots nor the continuous detonations in the war belt, says the writer, are competent to ,explain, as the selfsame conditions existed in the years 1915 and 1916, with totally varying presults. The paper discusses interestingly the outlook for the European food supply for winter. “We shall be compelled,” it says, “to look to German science to remedy the nearly total and universal European crop deficiency this autumn and win- ter. Some means will be found to stretch the shortage. We have no fear of it, but an abid- ing faith that Germany will manage to remedy } ‘the defect of nature. Have we not lived through | nearly as great distress? And we can do it again.” as to abundant harvests is most interesting. _—_-_ —=— DIRECT NOMINATIONS AND JUDGE LAMM. We hope that Judge Lamm, in emerging a victor from the primaries, emerged also with a better cpinion of the direct nomination principle. He is the nominee of a minority of the voters of his party—a very respectable minority let it be admitted—but no majority vote in a convention, not even a unanimous convention vote, could make him the first choice of any greater number of the ‘plain people. One of Mr. Lamm’s criticisms of the system was that it encouraged a two-faced attitude on the part of candidates, who were tempted to take one side of an issue in sections where that side was popular and the other side wherever it might mean votes. But that criticism appears in a different light now from that back in the campaign, when all sorts of reports were in circulation and misrepresentation seemed to have an influence on no small number of voters and unfairness and deception seemed to ibe practiced with success. It has all worked out pretty satisfactorily. The very publicity inseparable from the direct nomina- tion system is a corrective of its greatest possibili- ties of harm. Who, indeed, aside from some of the defeated candidates and their uncompromising supporters, would change the primary results as to the chief offices, now that we have got used to them and can see on analysis how well what ought to be is represented by what is? Regular elec- tions would be abolished by the same argument on which Judge Lamm urged the primary’s abolition. But if Mr. Lamm enterged from the primary with a strong conviction that the direct nomina- tion may wisely be supplemented with the short ballot and, in the event of his election, will work for the accomplishment of that’ great reform, he the State. On two fairly well balanced tickets, the only primary results conspicuously unsatisfactory are those affecting those offices of “low visibility” to which neither the voters nor convention dele- gates give proper attention in selecting nominees. Increasing evidences of sound judgment are being recorded in primaries throughout the coun- try. No assembly of leaders and delegates is wiser than the whole people. Mr. Hughes’ denunciation of centralization is not expected to interfere with his nationalizing of woman suffrage, which has always been a matter of state legislation. = = MILK DEALERS’ STRANGE PROPOSITION. The milk dealers’ proposition to the union, at the Warwick Hotel yesterday, that the union se- lect a committee to confer on the settlement of the strike, “no member of which has been engaged in violence or who was a member of the original wage-scale committee,” was equivalent to an as- sumption that the union officials, who were there, ready to confer, had been guilty of violence. It also assumed that the men don’t know what wages they want, in its demand that the original wage scale committee be debarred from the negotiations. It might have been countered with a proposition that the dealers should select a committee no member of which ever treated his employes un- fairly and no member of which had had anything to do with fixing wages. This was not the way the Cleveland milk driv- ers’ strike was settled. It shows that the dairy- men are still in an unreasonable frame of mind. If the dairy owners will consent to a conference with the union, as such, accepting its representa- tives in good faith, just as the dairy owners ex- pect to be accepted by the union, matters can proceed. That would be both fair and business- like. = = * SNAKEBITES AND THEIR OURE. Fatalities from snakebite are increasing at an alarming rate in the United States, declares that eminent zoological authority, Prof. Ditmars of the Bronx. A few years ago, says the professor, you rarely heard of snakebite killing anybody— not oftener than once in a couple of years or go. Whereas the present mortality is as high as three or four per annum. What is the cause? We opine that just as many, and maybe more, people were bitten in the good old days, but that there was more of the reliable old-fashioned remedy available. Is not the in- crease in the death rate commensurate with the decrease of the visible supply of the perfectly efficacious medicine? Many places where former- ly recourse could be had readily to first aid have been swept to utter aridity by the dry wave. In Kansas, Maine, Iowa and many common- wealths, notably in the South, which were once well equipped to combat the onslaughts of rep- tilia, the victims of snakes and prohibition are now abandoned to destitution, desiccation, desue- tude, doctors and death. In these desert wastes, as in Arkansas, Nebraska and even parts of IIli- nois and Missouri, men no longer court snakebites as in auld lang syne, but the snake is given an undue advantage and encouraged by results, with what terrible consequences we perceive. We are informed that grape juice, nor the suc- culent extract of loganberry, alas! none of the cheering, invigorating, pure, wholesome, nutritious and delicious soft beverages we read so much about, contains the curative essential! to withstand, or requisite punch to defy, the insidious serpent. As a condition precedent to precipitating drouth upon a given territory, it ought to be made in- cumbent on the Prohibitionists to rid it of snakes as the good Saint Patrick ridded Ireland. = NEW DEAL IN STATE POLITIOS. The falling off of more than 40,000 in the Democratic primary vote this year and the in- crease of more than 40,000 in the Republican, as compared with 1912, present none of the aspects of a vote of confidence in the personnel of the State administration during the last four years. The majority party enters the campaign with a sad weight in the record made at Jeffer- son City. Its support in the election will depend very largely on the conviction of the voters ag to how much change is promised by the new ticket. And, explicit as this year’s candidates are in pledges of something different, doubtless many voters will conclude that the way to make sure of the greatest possibile difference will be to sup- port Republican State candidates i _— This contradiction of continuous German claims | is in a way to perform a distinguished service for | Mod Lt "OP: “? etre Shes URLS it. -_- ——_—— owe — AFTER THE WAR.

If the United States had recognized Huerta, in the face of the certainty that Mexico was not going to suffer itself to be ruled by that assassin, it would have plunged that country into a mess from which A its prior folly would have he it powerless ever to extricate her. If Mr. Hughes had been President, Mr. Cannon Speaker of the House, and Mr. Penrose boss of the Senate, the currency act, which busted the Money Trust and made panics impossible, would not have been passed. If the people who have benefited by the income tax law and other equalizing acts of the Wilson OCon- gress all pitched something inte the Democratic cam- paign fund, as the beneficiaries of Republican legis- lation do, the tariff barons would have to dig deeper to win this election than they ever digged in their lives. If the German-Americans are to vote against Mr. Wilson because he has been for the allies, and the British-Americans are to vote against him because he has let the German-Americans bluff him, the Democrats would much rather join with all the peo- ple between those two extreme groups and show them that this is neither Germany nor England. If Mr. Hughes had been President the last three years, he would probably have tried much as Mr. Wilson has tried to keep this last of the great civil- ized powers out of the war, and Mr. Wilon would have been man enough to have beld up his hands. If the Republicans had provided the country with an adequate army and navy in the more than fifty years through which they almost continuously con- trolled the government, we would have them now and would not be trying to get them in sixty days. If times were ever better than they are in this country now, if there was ever a more general dis- tribution of prosperity, or if the United States ever commanded the respect of civilized nations to a great- er degree than we command it now, WIJEN WAS IT?

By Harold Carter. Young Mr. Burroughs. He liked the young fellow, who always tipped him‘ handsomely, and he dislike’ James Loft, who seemed to hold the mortgage on Miss Esther’s heart at present, with every likelihood of fore- closing. “I guess Miss Esther ain't blind,” said Uncle Josh. “‘You'll win that gel if you keep a-trying, Young Mr. Burroughs,” gaid Uncle Josh, still feelingly. Young Mr. Burroughs, though he had this information thrust upon him unso- licited, did not grow angry. He pressed Uncle Josh’s hand and pressed a big @oliar into it at the same time. Miss Esther was the sole owner of the plantation. Many of the neighbor- ing young men had come courting her. only to ride sadly homeward. Miss Es- ther was only 21, and not disposed to marry yet awhile. Still, she had shown a decided preference for Young Mr. Eur- roughs, until James Loft came along. Loft was the manager of the big fac- tery that had established itself at Moly- neux, eight miles away, and with his city airs and graces he had made a de- eide4 impression on Miss Esther. They rode together a good deal; they were eut riding that morning when Young Mr. Burroughs stood disconsolately in the Goorway of the empty house. Uncie Josh did not like James Loft. It was not because he did not tip him, though that might have been one of the reasons. He simply sensed that there was a yellow streak in James Loft’s na- ture. It was acting on this impression that he had given him Devil to ride that morning. “If you'd ifke to wait, sah, I guess Miss Dsther’ll be back soon,” said the Garky. Esther Comes Up Galloping. ARDLY had he spoken when a sin- gular apparition was seen career- ing across the countryside. As it @rew nearer it revealed itself to be Devil, scampering wildly homeward, while on its back, his arms about the big horse's neck in loving embrace, was James Loft himself. And ds the horse reached the stable Loft, dislodged by the animal's last spurt of joy, tumblei in a heap at Uncle Josh’s feet. “Dear me, sah, I hope you ain't hurt, sah,” said Uncle Josh, assistine him to his feet, while Young Mr. Bur- roughs broke into helpless laughter. “Curse you and your horse!” said Mr. Loft, who presented a sorry as- pect, having fallen into a muddy puddle, “May I ask what you are laughing at?” he continued fiercely, addressing Young Mr. Burroughs. “At you, eir,” gasped Young Mr. L NCLE JOSH looked feelingly at Burroughs, enjoying his rival's down- fall. Esther came galloping up. She leaped to the ground. She took in the situation, and her eyes blazed with fury. “Uncle Josh, you ought to »be ashamed of yourself for giving Mr. Loft Devil to ride,” she said. “And as for you, Mr. Burroughs,” she added, turning to the young man, “please understand that I do not per- mit my guests to be insulted.” She gave her arm to the discom- fited Mr. Loft, and escorted him in- side the house, leaving Young Mr. Burroughs standing like a fool. “Never mind, sah! You'll win that gel yet,” said Uncle Josh feebly. Young Mr. Burroughs went home. He had loved Miss Esther for years: in fact, when they were children they had considered themselves betrothed. And now this interloper, this man with the yellow streak, this James Loft had paraded his airs before the impressionable girl and won her, Uncle Josh’s Plan. OR they were as good as 6n- - gaged. The countryside said so Young Mr. Burroughs made inquiries about Loft, but he could learn nothing against him. And Esé- ther loved him. Nobody who saw them together could doubt that. She loved him so well that his errors in horsemanship did t seem ridicu- lous to her. Someti s Young Mr. Burroughs met them riding together and raised his hat, to receive the stiffest of bows from Miss Esther and a cold cut from Loft One evening Uncle Josh came to Young Mr. Burroughs. *T done fix that Loft feller,” marked. "What do you mean?” demanded Young Mr. Burroughs. *"You come to the stable at 7 tomor- row morning, sah,’’ responded Uncle Josh cryptically. Young Mr. Burroughs went to the sta- ble, which was situated at the end of the paddock, a good half mile from Miss Esther’s house. It was early morn- ing, and the remembrance of the days when he had come just that way, to ride with his sweetheart was strong upon him. As he approached the stable suddenly he heard a horse scream with terror. He went up to the door. There stood Devil, tied fast in his stall, and James Loft thrashing the life out of him with a riding whip. The big horse reared and plunged help- lessly, and the whip, wielded with all Loft’s strength, struck it cruelly across the legs and shoulders.

Material Interest in Design- ing Their Clothes Is No Longer Feared as Pro- moting Vanity, but Rec- ognized as Encouraging Self-Confidence, Poise and Comfort. place on the part of mothers from A the former fear that too evident In- terest in their young daughters’ clothes would result in inordinate vanity. When a siim, awkwardly built girl, or a girl built perhaps too corpulently, knows that her clothes are conscientiously planned in regard first to becoming ness. then style and appropriateness for the cecasion of wearing, she cannot but ex- press a feeling of self-confidence with a gracefui poise and carriage, which come when the body reacts to the content of the mind. The apparel of school girls and college girls differ according to their respective ages, the latter demanding a bit more dignity and richness. The frock here shown can be seen at a glance to incorporate the necessary HEALTHFUL reaction has taken the right is suggested dark blue serge and black satin for its development, with an unusually attractive effect. Over the shoulders of the plain bodice, straps piped with satin extend to the black satin pockets, and button on to them for safety. In the back they dis- appear under a belt formed by an ex- tension of the front portion of the bodice. The effect of the waist being slightly gathered in back above this belt is especially pretty: Sleeves with a cap piped in black are gathered into a cuff strapped at the top and piped to repeat the width of the strap over the shoulders. The girlish collar rolls away from a slit at the front, and may be of serge with an overlay of organdy, or of white broadcloth or white silk. The skirt shows four groups of piaits, the two at the front being held by pockets of black satin like the ones on the bodice. At the left this design offers to the shoulder straps the ability to charac- terize the frock with colored worsted embroidery. This is something which a young girl would take pleasure in working on herself. Done in a variety 1, qualities for college’ girl's frock. At}: of colors, such as yellow, green, Maroon and brick, it could be used on any color of serge or other woolen goods, though dark blue is usually preferred for practical school frocks. The pockets en may be finished with a blanket stitch in ene of the colors used in the embroid- ered design, and the result will be well worth the time any young girl would spend in so aiding to make this dress. Burroughs snatched the whip from Loft’s hand. Loft turned upon him Savagely. ‘You drop that whip!’ he shouted. Young Mr. Burroughs slashed Mr. Loft across the legs. Loft closed with him. They wrestled to and fro. Loft was more than the young man’s physi- cal match, but young Mr. Burroughs was goaded to madness by the cruel on- slaught upon Devil, who now stood shivering in his stall. The Scheme Works. UDDENLY they were aware that S Esther and Uncle Josh stood in the doorway. Esther made a star- tled movement forward, her eyes lit upon Devil, and she turned furiously upon the two. “Who has done this?’’ she demanded. “IT found this fellow beating a tied horse, and I took the whip away from him,’’ young Mr. Burroughs panted. “Is that true?’’ cried Esther furiously, "I tried to tame him,'’ muttered Loft. “I’m not going to have a wild horse round my property.’’ “What!” cried the girl in amased scorn. ‘‘Your property? Bo! Go! And don't let me ever see your face again!” James Loft stared at her in dismay. “Esther!” he began. “Go, I tell you!” shouted the girl. And Mr. Loft went. And then—well, young Mr. Burroughs took the sobbing girl in his arms and—O, yes, kissed her. It sounds too sudden, but that is the way those things are done.” “Uncle Josh, you old black devil,” said young Mr. Burroughs a little later, pressing a $§ bill into the darky’s hand, “what does it mean?’ “Why, boss, I guess Miss Esther wouldn't stand for a man what whipped a tied horse,”’ said Uncle Josh. “So I jest told him that Miss Esther didn't like a man what let a horse best him, and I said he'd better give him a beat- ing and then ride him. That's ail. Thankee, boss."’ (Copyright br W. G. Chapman). Remains of Giant Men. (CANAL workers at Valentine, Neb., recently uncovered, 10 feet beneath the surface, the skeleton of an Indian warrior.

By Mrs. ABBY was the house cat and Ned 1 the dog, and they were very good friends up to the time I am going to tell you about. One day the house was very still. Cook had gone to her room for a nap and Tabby was asleep in front of the kitchen stove. Ned had been asleep behind the stove and a fiy had buzzed about his head and finally lighted on his nose in the most aggravating manner, and Ned sprang up to catch it. Awey flew the fly and Ned after It, right into the pantry, and lighted on the edge of the lowest shelf. Ned lifted his head to snap at the fly, and that was when and where all the trouble started. Ned smelled something that pleased him and he sniffed again; it was the plo that stood near the edge of the shelf. ‘Smells like meat. I shouldn't wonder a bit if it were a nice, juicy meat ple, and maybe there is a bone in it, too,"’ said Ned. He stood looking at the pie for a min- ute and then he looked out in the kitchen at the sleeping tabby. ‘ Ned trotted out to her and gave her a poke with his nose. ‘‘Come in the pantry,” he said softly. ‘I want to ask you something.” ABBY followed, her ears aticking T up and her eyes wide open. ‘‘What is it?’ asked Ned. “What is what?’ asked Tabby, look- ing up and stretching her neck toward the shelf. “That pie,” said Ned, "I think it is a chicken ple. What do you think it is?’ “Chicken,” repeated Tabby, licking her mouth and swinging her tall. “I'll take a eniff and see.”’ Tabby put her front paws on the sheif and stood on her hind legs tiptoes and gave a iong, hard eniff. "Ie might be meat,” she sald. “T can’t be quite Bure it is chicken without looking inside." “It might be fish,” sald Ned. ‘You like fish, don’t you, Tabby? But whether it is a fish ple or a chicken pie, it does not interest me. I don't care for either, but I knew you did, and so I told you. I would like to know, just for the-sake of knowing if I was right. I guess chicken, and if it Is meat I lose and you win the guess.”’ “I'l? soon find out,” said Tabby, springing up on the shelf beside the pie. She poked her nose in the opening where the ple had been cut, and then someone came in the kitchen and Ned ran out and crawled behind the stove and pretended to be asleep. With the opening of the door puss pulled her head out of the pile and jumped, and over went the dish, ple and all, on the floor with a crash that brought cook to the pantry door in « hurry.

He had to fo out hours ago, and now that I'm alone and idling I'm gone to write Gown the story, as my husband told it to me, of what lay behind the attack on Mra. Winthrop. It's altogether such a strange affair I feel as if I had been reading or secine & movie thriller. After Ned left Mrs. Winthrop ss resting comfortably last night, he went to the police station and talked to the young man who had attacked her. For my husband thought that the boy must have been insane. “He isn't,” Ned told me postively. “There's no question of the chair; Mrs. Winthrop won't die. I suppose young Dawson must serve a term, but I hope it'll be a short one. “He te—or was—a portrait painter. ! wee the past tense because for two years he’s done merely enough hack aéd- vertising work to keep alive.

She said she would relinquish that, would give {t all to a home for de- pendent women.’ “The Poor Fool.” eh A OU see how far gone Dawson was,” Ned added, with a ecyni- eal laugh. “Tf he hadn't been head over heels in love he couldn't have credited Mrs. Winthrop’s willing- ness to give up her money. > “Apparentiy he had about three months of heaven, and then came the plunge to the other place. Her portrait was finished and he had presented it to her, waving aside all talk of par- ment. Then she dropped him as eud- denly as she had picked him up. “When he called one day, she Was out. He heard the same thing the next day. Nor could he reach her by tele- phones. On the third day he was told that she had gone into the country without leaving an address. “He esteged her with letters and telegrams, sent to her town house so that they might be forwarded. She never replied. She simply stepped ovt of his life and left him staring at a4 blank wall. Or, as he put ft, ‘she swept over me like a flame and only the ashes of me were left.’ “And #0, when he saw her laat night, talking and laughing to ma, he tried to kill her,” Ned ended. “It waa his first glimpse of her in two years, he had the pistol in hie pocket and a wild impulse did the rest.

The Browns surely are fighting against ali the tough breaks in the world on this trip. Consider some of them, which we pro to set down: No. 1—Tonsilitis is epidemic on the club: Koob, Rumler, Hartley, Mar- sans, Austin and Miller hav» it. Rum- ler was in such shape that he stayed in@“@a yesterday. Koob is conva- ledéent and eating again. The oth- ‘er@-are up and about, but they are di reeably sick; so much so that th can't even .moke. . 2—Bobby Roth of Cleveland is n suspended for throwing a pop bof into the bleachers at St. Louis, —“ He would have been sus- pended Sunday had Umpire Connolly l rode to Shibe Park yesterday with Jones and Plank and heard Fielder warn the Gettysburg Gunner about pitching to Schang. “Give him a slow ball out- side and low, and he'll never get a foul,” said Jones. In the third inning Schang faced Plank with a runner on third, and two out. Plank didn’t have a slow ball in stock. He tried to fool Schang with a curve and Wallie fouled it a mile. Then Plank tried to pitch a fast one past him and Schang hit vut of tha park, scoring two runs. How It All Happened. The Browns overcame that handicap. Pratt scored from first on Marsans’ single that and scored which went five sets, I. Kumagae of Japan defeated C. J.

ANS here argued that he ought to have made it easy for St. Louis to climb, seeing that Jones had so much ground to make up? But Mack saw it differently. He wanted the Browns to have every advantage dec- cently possible, as »aas shown when he let Fielder Jones decide whether the game of Wednesday should be played or postponed. But it would not have been fair to the other clubs to smooth the path of the Browns at such a time. So Connie sent the best he had against the Browns, although he has openly expressed the hope that Jones might win the flag. Mack is a true sportsman— one who believes in special ahd ls up to the cs Ward tate and condescending to accept $650 every two weeks for six months! Furthermore, he will con- tinue to accept it for THREE YEARS'! In return for thi« all John gives is a “Thank you” and a kind- faced smile. John was rushed into the breach to manage the Brooklyn Feds, when Lee Magee was ditched. Ganzel didn’t do much managing, if we except that he MANAGED to get a three-year contract for $7800. When Ward died ana the Federal League dissolved, the estate of the wealthy baker decided to assume Ganzel’s contract. And hence John is, now, parading easy street, pro- tected from the cobble stones by non- skid pneumatics. And yet, Bo, there are guys who insist that there's no such of the national! and is scheduled to get into the game tcday. Since Aug. 3, when Evers left the team the ctub has won nine games and lest two, a winning percentage of 818 And three of these _ victories came over the pace-making Superbas. Fitzpatrick and Egan have been on the job at second during Evers’ ab- sence. : Manager Huggins will probably shoot either Leon Ames “Mule’ Wat- son, his young right-hander against the invaders this afternoon.

Spot market steady and un- changed, with the exception of No. 1 Manitoba, which is 11 lower; cargo market any, Manitobas 94 and winters ls lower ‘nited Kingdom buyers are waiting contradictions of general dam- age to the Canadian crop, while Con- tinent is pay present prices and there- fore absorbing export uffers. Corn was dull, but steady.” Corn futures rose over 2c due to con- tinued drouth and high temperatures over the Southwest, and buying by pro- fessionals on the theory that $1.50 wheat precludes the possibility of cheap corn this winter. Cables were unchanged and primary receipts 414,000 bu, against 324,000 bu last Ps. Shipments were 502,000 bu, against 28,000 bu a year ago. Oats were near- ly lc higher. The Winnipeg Free Press publishes an estimate of only 11 to 12 bushels per acre and a total crop of 35,934,000 bushels of wheat for Manitoba. It says that this only about a half crop. Thetbbadorn Miller says: nou advices indicate the Canadian crop damage will exceed former esti- mates in Manitoba and Saskatchewan. In some districts, the crop is destroyed and weather conditions are favorable for rust spread. Kansas farmers wheat marketings are comparatively light aft- er first harvest movement. There is a strong demand from millers for wheat supplies in all surplus sections.”’ New York wired: “One of the foreign Governments was reported a fair buyer of wheat during the morning and the buying of futures continues, at inter- vals to midday.’’ Bradstreet’s weekly clearances of wheat were 7,808,000 bu; corn, 1,538,000 bu. Northwest cars: Minneapolis Duluth Winnipeg 6 Minneapolis wheat 450,000 bu for the week. A Kansas City wire said: “A large elevator concern here, with many sta- tions in the corn belt of Kansas, figure that 50,000,000 bu will be liberal estimate of Kansas corn crop. We are again get- ting back to high temperatures in this section; damage ranges from 50 per cent to total failure.’ . W. Snow's report says: “lI have sufficient threshing returns On Oats to warrant the statement that the yield per acre is materially lowe! than was indicated on Aug. 1, with the average weight per bus ol mark- edly below normal. The disappoint- ment is the result of excessive heat experienced, while the crop was in bloom and neading. Returns to date indicate a yield of 30 bushels per acre, against 31.7 indicated on Aug. 1. If later threshing confirms these earlier results, the total crop would be re- duced to about 1,185,000,000 bushels, egainst 1,254,000, 000 bushels indicated on Aug. 1 and an actual harvest last year of 1,507,000,000 bushels, The heavy losses in actual threshing yields as compared with the indica- tion when harvested are to date: Ohio, 5 bushels; Indiana, 6 bushels; Illinois, 6 bushels; Missouri, 7 bughels, ana North Dakota, 3. With lowa just equalling expectations and Nebraska showing a gain of 2 bushels.” A Chicago firm wired: “We have repeatedly called atten- tion to the fact that data for the last Government report on corm Was gathered too early to show the fll damage. Our own reports continue to emphasize the fact that there was heavy crop loss between the date o' the report and the date when rairs were received, and it is evident that the crop promise at this time cs lower than the figures suggested vy the Govermment on Aug. 1. The losses in Kansas, Oklahoma and parte of Missouri are sensational with fur- ther loss in Ohio, Ulinois and paits of Indiana, lowa has failed to fully maintain her promise and portions of Nebraska are showing badly. We believe, therefore, tha the next Government report will show a fur- ther materia! loss in corn.’ Clearances of wheat were 1,062,000 bu; corn, 96,0u0 bu; oats, 906, 600 ‘bu; flour, 12, 000 bbilsa.; wheat and flour. 1,116,000 bu.

But only in one eye. Which made him King. So that suggest- e4 to the Miracle Film Co.'s director] that man and dog should be worked into a movie play. They were good ma- terial. How could it be done? The director pondered long before the idea came. He would have the heroine in the “Perils ot Iphegenia” lost on a mountain top. A storm breaks, clouds of snow whirl about her and she is lost—alone—in the eerie wilderness. But she stumbles on, love of’ life strong within her heart, saying over and over, “I will not die.” Then comes the supreme moment. Just as hope is ebbing and she is almost feconciled to death, her straying steps lead to a hermit's cabin. But her strength is gone, She can only call in # faint voice and fall forward toward theo cabin, hand outstretched. The hermit is within. He hears a cry, a blow on the door. Merely the storm, he thinks. Not so his good dog, nestling there by the master’s side. Instinct tells him that someone is without and Hé goes barking to the door. The old man follows, the door is opened and Iphegenia saved. ‘But is she saved? The blind man felis a light flutter of her heart. That is all. While the dog mourns plaintively and runs first here, then there, as if to urge his master on, the hermit applies ‘the simple remedies at his command.

The old man, a beggar by hard circumstance, grasped the opportunity to earn what was a fabulous sum to him. There was his dog to see that he did not fall.

Ofily the blind man was late. At last a little group appeared on the path -below. One of them bore something in his arms. They drew nearer. Tears ‘were streaming from the old man's sight- less eyes. The dog had fallen on the steep slope and a sharp rock had put out his remaining eye. Now both were blind. Iphegenia could not be saved that day.
