He is a diplomat of note and friendly with the people of the United States, where 19 years ago he was the Spanish Ambas- sador to Washington. He was recalled by his Government just before the Spanish-American War. He first came to the United States in 1873 as an attache of legation. Since that time he has served at Janeire; London and Berlin.

W'ASHINGTON, Feb. 12.—Gen. Car- ranza has sent a note to the United States, Argentina, Brazil and Chile, as well as to all other neutral nations, asking them to join in an agreement to prohibit the export from their coun- tries to the warring European nations of foodstuffs and munitions of war. It is obvious that such an embargo would be of benefit only to the Teutonic allies. APPROPRIATIONS TO BE BASED ON HOPE GARDNER BILLS WILL PASS House Cemmittee to Go on Theory That They Can Be Vetoed if Revenue Measures Fail. 3 JEFFERSON CITY, Feb. 12.—The House Committee on Appropriations, which originates appropriation bills, has decided to rush all such measures to completion. Chairman Hostetter said today the committee had been working slowly with the intention of awaiting action on Gov. Gardner's revenue-pro- ducing measures, wishing to know how much money the State would have tc spend before fixing the amount of the expenditures. “It is getting so far along in the ses- sion, however,’ Hostetter said, “‘that we must get the bills out so that they can be considered on the floor. “Although the estimated revenue is only $11,500,000 for the two years, the committee will trust to the important revenue measures being passed, and will base the appropriation bills on an estimated revenue of $14,000,000 for the two years. If the measures should be defeated the Governor can veto the ap- propriations.”’ INVENTS SELF-GUIDING TORPEDO Grandson of Cyrus W. Field Turns Magnetic Device Over to U. 5. WILLISTON, N.

Minister’s Home in Capi- tal Two or Three Days. HE ARRIVED YESTERDAY Met at Border by Military Escort of Honor on Arrival There From Berlin. ‘BERNE, Feb. 12.—Ambassador Gerard wfl receive President Schulthess. and Herr Hoffmann, chief of the Swiss For- eign Department, today. The two Swiss officials will call at the home of Pleas- ant A. Stovall, the American Ambas- _ gador to Switzerland, where Mr. Gerard is staying. Gerard arrived at the Swiss boundary at Schaffhausen at 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon... He was met by the -Amert- can Minister to Switzerland and repre- sentatives of the Swiss army, including Col. Bruegger and Capt. Rudolph Ise- lin. A Swiss military guard of honor was also in waiting and a big delega- ian of citizens greeted .Mr. Gerard. He will remain in Berne for two or three days. | Gives No Interview. Most of the members of Ambassador Gerard's large party gave a genuine sigh of relief when the Swiss border was reached, for the strain of the list few days had told more or less on the majority of the travelers. Ambassadcr Gerard met cordially the many news- papermen who crowded about him on hig arrival at Zurich, clamoring fox, in- t@eviews for papers all over the civ- illéed world, but he kept rigidly to his d4@8rmination not to speak for publica- tiei until after be should report fo President Wilson in Washisgton. The strain of tho situation for the Americans in Berlin had been height- ened toward the end by the efforts of the German authorities to induce Mr. Gerard to open negotiations for an amendment to the Prussian-Americcn treaty of 1799. At the same time the German newspa- pers were flooded with reports of the seizure of German ships by America and with stories of difficulties and indig- nities encountered by Count von Bern- siorff. Ambassador Gerard was un- able to communicate in cipher with Washington after the break and the au- thorities ignored all denials of the stories printed in the German newspa- ‘pers wntil an official received through the Spanish embassy made it clear that the stories were false. Delay followed delay. and one ex- cuse was made after another until Iri- day night, when the Foreign Office suddenly announced its willingness two permit Mr. Gerard to depart on the following day. The names of corre- spondents and of other persons were added to the list, but petty delays and uncertainties followed until shortly be- fore the train was boarded. Departure Not Generally Known. The fact “that it was not generally known that Gerard was departing re- duced demonstrations at the South Ger- man stations to a minimum of curious crowds. The older women and the children were assigned to the sleeping cars on the Ambassador's train. The younger per- eons rode in the day coaches and made the trip of # hours to the border with no serious discomforts. accompanied by two representatives of the Foréign Office and guarded care- y-by men from the secret service. he customs inspector and other exam- - igitions at the border were relaxed to a mere formality. —— Cordial Official Farewell Accorded to Gerard in Berlina. BERLIN, Saturday, Feb. 10, by wire- less to the Associated Press via Sayville, Feb. 11.—James W. Gerard, the Ameri- can Ambassador, and his staff, left Ber- jin at 8:10 o'clock tonight for Switzer- ‘and. Besides the énibassy staff, 110 other Americans accompanied him. The jea* e-taking was very cordial, members of the Foreign Office seeing the Ambas- sndor off. Mr. Gerard will await instructions in Berne before proceeding. The train on which the Ambassador left Berlin consisted of 10 coaches. Fully 2 Americans, who are remaining in Berlin, were or hand to take leave re- gretfully of their countryman. “Good-by, Judge,’’ someone shouted as ‘he train started and Gerard, leaning far out of the window of his car, re- plied: “Auf wiederséhn on Broadway.” The former Ambassador expressed himself optimistically with regard to further developments in the German- American situation. At the station Count Montgelas, head of the American section of the Foreign Office, and Herr von Prittwitz, personal representative of Foreign Minister Zim- mermann, Were present to bid Gerard farewell. The Diplomatic Corps was represented by Polo y Bernabe, the Spanish Ambassador, who is to take over the interests of the United States: Dr. Theotoky, the Greek Minister: Bar- on Gevers, the Dutch Minister, and the diplomats of the South American repub- lics. The military authorities and the Fortign Office assigned ‘special officers to accompany the train to the Swiss ’ frontier. On the way to the frontier the train picked up a score or more of Americans attached to consular offices in thers y.

LONDON, Feb. 12.—The German tor- pedo boat destroyer V-69 left Ymuiden, Holland, at 6:45 o’clock last evening, as- sisted by a German tug, says a Reuter dispatch from that port. The Dutch cruiser Noord-Brabant and six Dutch torpedo boats escorted the German ship through territorial waters. The V-69 was badiy battered in a bat- tle with British destroyers in the North Sea late in January, but was brought into port by her crew. Various repairs have been made since .then. 7 London Report Tells of Pushing Back Turks With Heavy Losses.

All the evidence shows that the Turks suffered heavily.” German Papers Question That liLn- glish Barred Zone Has Been Heard of in U. S.

BERLIN, Feb. 12, by wireless to Tuck- erton.—The Austro-Hungarian headquar- ters report of Feb. 10 reads: “Italian front—In the Gorizia district our troops, in nocturnal enterprises, en- tered several portions of enemy trenches, inflicted heavy sanguinary losses upon the Italians and captured 15 officers and 650 men, 10 machine guns, two mine throwers and much other war material.” Night Attacks by British Near Ancre Repulsed, Berlin Says, BERLIN, Feb. 12, by wireless to Sayville.—British troops last night made six successive attacks against the Garman “wrecked” trenches along the front from Serre to the Ancre River, says the official statement is- sued today by army headquarters.

NEWS, SAYS [IMMIERMANN Reports Through London Indi- cated Seizures of Property in America. BERLIN, Feb. VW, by wireless to Sav- ville.)—With reference to the present conGition of German-American relations, the German Foreign Secretary, Dr. A!}- fred Zimmermann, made the following statement today to the Overseas News Agency: ‘‘We now have practically no speedy or reliable infcrnation about the United States. The best proof of this is fur- nished by two wireless messages which were sent Feb. 5 by the correspondent in the United States of the German news agency and which arrived yester- day. The contents of these two short messages were astounding, even sensa- tional, for they told that the United States Government had not confiscated German ships in American ports nor in- terned Germans residing in the United States. “Until yvesterday morning, all we knew about these matters had passed through English channels, and the gist of these reports was that the United States Government actually had vio- lated the property and liberty of Ger- man citizens. “English agents by thus adulterating the truth did not intend, of course, to slander the United States. Their inten- tion was to create public alarm in Ger- nany, and thus cause outbursts of popu- lar indignation and perhaps éven prompt the Ge1rman Government to rash actions based on error. “All this then would have been re- ported in exactly the same—that is, in- correct—fashion to the United States by the same British agencies. If they hai succeeded, these British agents would have saddied Germany with the respon- sibility and fault in the eyes of ever) candid, but misled, observer. “However, during two years-and -a half we have been practically cut off from reliable and speedy communication with the United States. During that time we have learned to appreciate British reports at their true value. We, therefore, suspended judgment = and atvaited the real reports which now, aft- er all, have arrived.’’ —_-- —_— sons to any project of convoying Amer'- can merchantmen through the prohib- ited submarine zones, favors furnishing fense. | The Navy Department, it was stated officially, has a considerable number oi old model three-inch to six-inch rifles available for arming merchant ships, bit not enough for the conversion of al! ships it would require in time of war and also to furnish defensive arinament for all merchantmen. The question of supplying trained gun crews for merchantmen is more difficult from a departmental point of view. There is cbjection to withdrawing men from the active services of the navy at this time, and there is also some ques- tion as to what effect such a step would have on the status of a ship. Disquiet as to Steamers, The enforced idleness of the American merchant fleet is being viewed with growing disquiet, and the general view here is that not only the export tra:le, but the nation’s standing before the world demands that American veasels continue to ply the high seas without Senator La Follette today introduced & resolution to make it unlawful for any American merchant ship in time of peace to depart armed from any port of the United States for any port in an- ment. while opposed for miltiary rea- other country.

"OF XPERENGES OF HS ROSS SEA PART Lieutenant, Who Rescued Seven of Ten Men Marooned When Ice Carried Their Ships Away, Sends From New Zealand Closing Chapter of the Remarkable Tale of His South Polar Expedition. Sir Ernest Shackleton has now written the closing chapter in as thril- hing a story of polar expldération as ever was told. His Antarctic expedition left England in the autumn of 1914 in two sec- tions, one under Shackleton, aboard the Endurance, the other under Mackin- tosh, on the auviliary ship Aurora. The Endurance foundered April 9, 1916, and, after almost incredible ef- forts, Shackleton led his party to Elephant Island, where he left 22 men in an ice hut, and with five others went for assistance in an open 24-foot boat, braving 1000 miles of furious sea. After three failures at rescue Sir Ernest saved all. Then, coming to the United States, he prepared to go to the relief of the 10 men who had been at Ross Sea Barrier since the Aurora was carried away by ice May 6, 1915. How he saved the remaining men of his expedi- tion he describes in the following dispatch: , BY SIR ERNEST SHACKLETON. (Copyright, 1917, by Press Pub. Co.) WELLINGTON, New Zealand, Feb. 10, via London, Feb. 12.—I have arrived here from my rescue journey to Ross Sea, whither we sailed on Dec. 23 last to help the remainder of my Antarctic expedition party ‘marooned there through the breaking away of the Aurora from her moorings May PHILADELPHIA CHILDREN VICTIMS OF U-BOAT oe: f > JAMES O"DONNELL. —Photo by Central News Service.

They displayed heroism and forti- tude to a continuous series of misfortunes. The rest of the party are ali well. They are: H. BE. Wild (brother of Frank Wild, second {n command of the party on the Endurance, whom Shackleton res- cued from Elephant Island). Ernest Joyce. A. Stevens. J. L. Cope. Gaze (the commissariat officer). Richards (the secretary). Jack (the biologist). On Jan. 10 we reached fast ice in the Aurora tive miles from Cape Evans. We picked -up*’*the “Survivers there and a¢ thec“oss of “ea and Rts ich’ toontne’ pre. viously. While we recognized the hopelessness ef finding any traces of Mackintosh and Wayward, who fell through sea ice in this vicinity, the Aurora was kept in the reighborhocd until the 19th of last month. During nine days a Careful ex- emination was made of McMurdo Soun14 as far north as Granite Harbor. I landed, accompanied by Capt. vis, with search parties, but discov- ered no trace of those comrades, Weltnher, while close in to the coast, was anything seen from the ship. When the Aurora broke away in May, 1915, two parties, consisting of six men, who had gore South in January to lay depots, had not returned to Care vans from Hut Point, where the party should by that time have arrived. Thus when the Aurora arrived here after her jong drift in the pack she brought nw news of them. Da- Story of Their Experiences. Their story and the subsequent hap Lenings to the expedition were told. to ie when I met them. - They had started ‘cut in two parties and on March 14, three days after the Aurora left Hut Point for Cape Kvans, owing to the ice beginning to close up, Cope, Jack and Hayward arrived from the Barrier with two dogs. On the 22d Mackintosh, Joyce and Wild arrived. “They were badly lrostbitten. All the dogs, 16 in number, died on the trail. Consistently bad weather— furious blizzards with temperatures 30 degrees below zero—militated .against progress, but despite all difficulties they | jlaid the bluff depot at latitude 79 de- Srees south, longitude 169 degrees east, | and another at 80 degrees south. Open water and thin ice prevented the party reaching Cape Evans until June 1, when they found the Aurora gone. There were ample provisions in eaches—fresh seal, penguin meat, blub- her for fuel, sledging provisions and kerosene. The main coal supply also had been landed, but was washed away by a wave from a capsized berg. The only serious result of the ship's disappearance as far as the marooned men were concerned was the lack of ‘lothing, which had not been taken athore from the boat. The winter passé@, and there were the usual blizzards. Joyce and Wild occupied themselves in making fur boots from materials left by Scott; and Stevens carried on scientific work, while Cope, Hayward and Gaze went seal hunting with four dogs. Mackintosh arranged a program for early and extensive sledgifig. He start- ed on Sept. 1, and five journeys were made to Hut Point. On Oct. ® nine men in three units started sledging to stock the bluff depot in 79 degrees south lat- itude, to which four journeys were made afterward, al] the units proceed- Ing south. The first party consisted of Mackintosh, Wild and Spencer Smith. The. second, in charge of Joyce, in- cluded Hayward, Richards, Cope, Jack and Gaze, with four dogs. At 8 degrees south latitude Joyce @ent back Jack. Gaze and Cope. This Party reached Hut Point Jan. 15, 1916, covering. 150. miles-in rine days from 80 South latitude. Mackintosh Joined up the parties Jan. 22 at 83 de- being aitacked with scurvy. left in the tent with provisions. On Jan. 26 the last depot was laid at Mount Hope. They found here two of Scott’s sledges. These were the only traces they came across of the Scott ex- pedition, although Mackintosh’s party followed the same track. This leads to the conclusion that the snowfall was heavy on the Barrier. | On Jan. 29, on their return, they picked up Spencer Smith. He was so helpless he had to be lashed on a sledge in a sleeping bag. Scurvy symptoms appearing generally, the greatest possible speed was made homeward. Mackintosh was badly at- tacked, but continued pulling. Despite the lost traction power and the weight of the sick man, procress was rapid for the next 180 miles. Then. the strain telling, combined with ad surface and weather, the length of the marches grew shorter and the hours of march longer. @ At 80 degrees south latitude, owing to the condition of the party and anticipa- tion of bad weather conditions in this area, extra food was taken from the depot, a precaution fully justified, for when only 11 miles from the safety of the Bluff Depot, and within 30 miles of where Scott perished, the party was overtaken by a furious blizzard, just as Scott was when within a few miles of the one-ton depot. A blizzard raged from Feb. 17 to March 1, the temperature being 30 de- grees below zero. For the first six days the party camped. Then, as the fuel and provisions were practically ex- hausted and the men were weakening rapidly in frozen sleeping bags, camp was broken onthe 2d. After three hours occupied in digging the buried siedges out. the party started in a blind- ing drift to reach the depot 11 miles away. Fight Against Death in Blizzard. Now began the fight against death, which called forth qualities of self-de- nial, endurance and comradeship worthy of the highest traditions of polar serv- ice. Soon after starting Mackintosh fell in his tracks, having reached the limit of human endurance... He’ was left with Spencer Smith and-with Wild to after them b6th> “while Joyce, Richards and Hayward, with foiir starv-. ing dogs, depot. Struggled.on to reach “the A few biscuit crumbs and some tea were the only food left. During =i momentary clearance of the drift on the 26th the depot was sighted. The party that started to return with food and oi} was now broken down and the blizzard continued to rage. Joyce and Richards, with the dogs pulling, arrived in camp on the 29th. They found the party with- out food. Mackintosh and Smith now were sick, quite helpless and full of appreciation of Wild’s self-denying care. An immediate start was made again for the depot, Mackintosh and Spencer Smith being lashed to a sledge and Hay- ward staggering along beside then. The blizzard drift ceased on March 1 but it continued to blow. The day after they left the depot with their stores re- plenished, Hayward, as well as Mackin- tosh and Spencer Smith, had to be lashed to the sledge. At first the party were helped by a sledge sail, but on the seventh Wild dropped and the sail became useless. The three men pulling were now un- _—— BELL-ANS Absolutely Removes Indigestion. One package proves it. 25cat all druggists. THE SIGN OF I deeply deplore He was that they went down with the ship. able to move the sledges burdened with their sick comrades. Mackintosh, seeing the gravity of the situation, unselfishly decided to remain behind, so as to give the other sick men a chance to reach safety. The decision is in keeping with his behavior through- cut. They left him in a tent, with three weeks’ provisions. On the eighth, 40 miles from safety, the party pushed on with Hayward and Spencer Smith, all now weakening from scurvy. , Spencer Smith died on the ninth, after 47 days of sickness, cheerful to the end. March 11 Hut Point was reached and fresh meat and dried vegetables were procured. Three days afterward—a de- lay due to a bad blizzard—Joyce, Rich- ards and Wild started back to fetch Mackintosh. This’ they successfully achieved, and by the eighteenth all were safe at Hut Point. The lives of Mackintosh and Hayward were saved by the devoted efforts of comrades and by the endurance ani work of four dogs, whose names are worthy to be placed on record. They are Con, Toween, Gunner and Oscar. Under worse conditions of weather and temperature, with short food and sometimes none at all, the party had practically been sledging from Sept. 1, 1915, to March 18, 1916. They had covered 1560 statute miles, and, in spite of ab- normal! difficulties, had laid a depot at Mount Hope, thus carrying out the ob- ject for which the Ross Sea expedition was designed. The scurvy symptoms rapidly dis- appeared under a regimen of fresh meat and vegetables, and by the end of April all were well. I consider that the scurvy was due to the length of time the party was deprived of fresh food, combined with the abnormally heavy sledging un- dertaken without sufficient help of dogs or other traction power. The dearth of clothing and the discom- fort caused by the unexpected breaking away of the Aurora undoubtedly had an effect upon the health of the party. From March 18,. 1916, until the end of April sea ice was steadily forming be- tween Het Point and Cape Evans, only to be blown out by. each succeeding blizzard. At the beginning of May 2 calm period ensued and ice formed with a thickness of four inches. Mackintosh and Hayward Lost, On the 8th Mackintosh and Haywa-d \decided to cross the .sea ice to Cape Evans. The weather was fine wher they started, at 1 p. m., with the un- Ysual equipment. but they were over- taken by a sudden blizzard two hours later, when they would be approximate- ly four miles from Hut Point. On May 10 the remainder of the narty at Hut Point, being anxious for the safety of their companions, followed in Mackintosh’s tracks to the north, where they found them abruptly terminatine Y — _____— Blood as a Nerve Tonic ‘‘Tf people would only attend to their blood, instead .of worrying them- selves ill,’’ said an eminent nerve specialist, ‘‘we doctors should not sve our consulting rooms crowdea y-ith nervous wrecks. More people suffer from worry than from anything else.’’ The sort of thing which the special- ist spoke of is the nervous run-down condition caused by overwork and the many anxieties of today. Suffer- ers find themselves tired, morose, low- spirited, unable to keep their mind on anything. Any sudden noise hurts like a blow. They are full of ground- less fears and cannot sleep at night.

See Dutch ys pit Sunk. 2 The Kroonland left Liverpool Jan..51, the day before the German declaration, and had an eventful voyage. One day from port she witnessed the destruction of a Dutch freighter by shell fire from a submarine. The crew of the Dutch ship was towed away by the submarine in a lifeboat. ‘ On Feb. 5 a strange object which looked like the funnel of a steamship partly submerged or the conning tower of a submarine was sighted about two miles away. A few hours later the of- ficers of the Kroonland saw a mysteri- ous looking steamer which they could not identify, but which they thought might have been a German raider, act- ship to one or more U-boats. This impression was strength- ened by the fact that the stranger did not return signals. Two Others Dock at New York. The Cunard liner Armenia, from Liv- erpool Jan. 31 and the Italian steamer Giuseppe Verdi from Mediterranean ports reached their docks here today. ‘The British liner Cedric which sails today for Liverpool without passengers, will carry 6000 sacks of mail which have been delayed here for the last week aboard the St. Louis.

A feature which aroused great en- thusiasm was the arrival of a delega- tion of Argentinians, who made the journey through the pass used by the soldiers who-came to the help of the Chileans in 1887. ing as supply Victory in open wager. Their worst fears were realized when, on May 15, they arrived at Cap> Evans and found that Mack- intosh and Hayward had not arrivel. After a day they returned and searches were conducted for traces of the miss- ing men, but none were found. The loss of Mackintosh and Hayward was due to the breaking up of the young ice and its driving north under the influencs of the blizzard. The remajnder of 1916 was spent main- ly in sledging stores from my old hut at Cape Royds to Cape Evans, with a view to detention for yet another vear. On Jan. 10 last we arrived in the An- rora at fast ice five miles from Cape Evans and picked up the seven sur- vivors. All weré well.

GARDNER WILL NOT PAY BILL OF $1140 FOR BILL POSTING Governor Says He Knows Noth- ing About Contract With Donovan Concern. JEFFERSON CITY, Feb. 12.—Goyr. Gardner said to a Post-Dispatch re- porter today that he did not intend to pay a bill for $1140 which has been mailed to him by the Donovan Bill Posting Co. of St. Louis. The amount is the balance which the company claims is due on .. $2640 account for posting Gardner literature in the re- cent campaign. . “I do not know anything about this bill, or what men entered into the contract for it,” Gov. Gardner said. “I did not authorize anyBody to make this contract. I did not*pay the $1500 which the company says it has re- ceived on account, and I do not know who paid it. I am no more respon- sible for this bill than President Wil- son is responsible for the deficit n the Democratic campaign.” In reference to the company’s state- ment that the first bill sent to the Gov- érnor brought in return a ‘‘form” let- ter which is sent to applicants for jobs, the Governor said that there were only two stenographefs in his office and that sometimes his office received as many as a thousand letters in a day. Forest P. Tralles, attorney for the bil posting company, said he had not been informed who signed the contract for bill posting, or who paid the $1500. He did not know the location of the Dill posting Company, and the name does not appear in the city or telephone direc- tories. He said he expected his client to bring the contract to him in a day or so. FIRE LOSS AT 517 OLIVE IS ESTIMATED AT $22,000 Flames in Mackey & Spiro’s Men’s Furnishing Store Confined to Basement and First Floor. Fire of undetermined origin which started in the basement of the building occupied by the Mackey & Spiro Men’s Furnishing Co., at 617 Olive street, last night damaged the stock and building about $22,000, according to the estimate of Fire Chief Henderson. The fire was confined by the firemen to the basement and first floor of the building. Members of the clothing firm said their stock was valued at $75,000. Chief Henderson estimated the damage to the stock at $20,000 and $2000 to the building. The clothing on the second, third, fourth and fifth floors of the nuilding was damaged only by smoke. The fire caused a thick, suffocating smoke, which filled the downtown streets and hampered the firemen in their work. John C. MecGah, a Fire Captain, of 3331 Indiana avenue, was overcome in the basement of the build- ing and was carried out unconscious.

PARIS, Feb. 12.—The Swiss Federal Council, in its reply to the German note on the new submarine campaign, enters an energetic protest against ‘he announced blockade and reserves ll the rights of Switzerland as a neutral, according to the Havas Agency’s Berne correspondent. It expresses confidence, however, that the German Government will take all necessary measures to assure the protection of Swiss interests. After referring to the German Goy- ernment’s communication upon the aug- mentation of maritime warfare, the Berne advices state, the Council de- Clares that ‘‘the imperial Government cannot fail to recognize that the meas- ures announced by this empire consti- tute an attack upon the right of peace- ful commerce which, in conformity to principles of international law, be- longs to Switzerland in its character as a neutral state. In fact, the blockade of nearly all ports’ susceptible of be- ing utilized by Switzerland pre- sents a serious danger in the matter of our provisionment in food products and in raw fhaterials, as well as with re- spect to our exportations over the sea. “Even if, by friendly agreement with the French Government, the utilization of the port of Cette, exempted from the blockade, is rendered possible, mar- itime transport would be restrained to a degree which would cause sensible injury to our national economy. cn tucomomic Liberty Restricted. The maritime blockade by the Gouv- ernment of the German empire follows a series of measures taken during the war by both parties of belligerents in opposition to the law of nations and in- ternational agreement, by which our ‘iberty of action in economic matters is already restrictec aad against wnick we have vainly raised our voice. ‘In such circumstances, this blockade is all the more pressing and more weighty with consequences. The Fec- eral Council sees _ itself, ‘ therefore, obliged to protest onergetically and to make all reservations against the block- ade anrounced by the imperial Govern- ment and against its realization so far as it violates the rights of neutrais rec- wgnized by tl.e general principles of in- ternational law, in particular, where the effective application of the blockade ap- pears incomplete. . “The Federal Council givés notice ir advance of all legal reservatioy.s if it Lappens that the means put into effect by Germary and her alles are applied to the destruction of Swiss interests or property... The Federal Council, however, does not doubt that the Government of the empire will do all that is necessary to assure in the measure possible the security of Swiss interests and spare the painful consequences which could arise from the blockade for the economi: life of the Swiss.”’ The same note, adds the Corresronden;i, has been addressed to the Government of Austria-Hungary. China Threatens to Break With Ger- many; Associates Itself With the U.S. PEKIN, Feb. 12.—The note handed to the German Minister by the Minister of Foreign Affairs, in reply to Germany’s declaration of unrestricted submarine warfare follows: ‘The new measures of submarine war fare inaugurated by Germany are imper- iling the lives and property of Chinese citizens even more than the measures previously taken, which have already cost China many lives and constitute a violation “of international law. The tol- eration of their application would in- troduce into international law arbitrary principles incompatible with legitimate intercourse between neutrals and be- tween neutrals and belligerents. “China, therefore, protests energeti- cally to Germany against the measures proclaimed Feb. 1, and sincerely hopes that the rights of neutral stateg wijl} be respected and that the said measures will not be carried out. If, contrary to expectations, this protest be ineffective, China will be constrained, to its pro- found regret, to sever diplomatic rela- tions. It is unnecessary to add that China’s action is dictated by a desire for further peace and the maintenance of international law.” A communication explanatory of China’s action also was handed to Dr. Paul 8. Reinsch, American Minister to China. It follows: ‘China, like the President of the Tell How They Regained Strength and Vigor Steubenville, Ohio.—My husband is 79 years old and I am 78 years of age and we owe our good health to Vinol, the greatest strength creator and medicine there is.

China also proposes to take such other action in the future as will be deemed necessary for the maintenance of the principles of international law.” Greece Approves Efforts to Maintain Freedom of Navigation. LONDON, Feb. 12.~A dispatch to the Exchange Telegraph Co. from Athens says: “The Athens newspapers assert that, simultaneously with the handing of its reply to the American Government's note suggesting the severing of rela- tions with Germany, the Greek Govern- ment also transmitted a communication to the German Government with regard to Germany’s declaration of a subma- rine blockade. In it Greece makes the fullest reservation concerning her ships. The reply of Greece to the invitation of the United States to join its attitude toward Germany has been handed to the American Minister at Athens, the correspondent of the Exchange Tele- graph Co., at the Greek capital, tele- graphs. The reply, he states, affirms the sympathy of Greece with every ef- fort to accelerate peace and her ap: rroval of every effort to maintain free- dom of navigation for the world's ship- ping, adding that Greece has already drawn Germany’s attention to the grave consequences of the proposed submarine blockade. “In view of present conditions, how- ever, the dispatch states, Greece ex- plains that she is not in a position to contemplate concerted action for the protection of the national shipping. | Japan Approves China’s Reply toe Note on U-Boats. TOKIO, Feb. 12.—Viscount Motono, Japanese Minister of Foreign Affairs, at a conference with the Chinese Min- ister yesterday, approved the attitude of China toward Germany as it has been expressed in China’s reply to the German note on unrestricted submarine warfare, according to the newspapers today. The approval, it is said, was on the ground that the position taken . by China would aid in uprooting Germa: influence in the Far East and be of benefit to the entente. THE DAY IN CONGRESS.

TWO MEMBERS OF SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA SHARE HONORS Flute Soloist Scores Hit at “Pop” Concert and Viola Player Appears as Composer, The honors of yesterday afternoon's “pop”’ concert were bestowed upon two members of the Symphony Orchestra. John F, Kiburz,. first flute, was the program’s soloist, and Oswald Thumser of the viola section, was presented as a composer. Kiburz is one of the city’s most ster- ling artists, and the feat of an artist and a virtuoso was his pleying of Chaminade’s ‘‘Concertino for Fiute,’’ and, as an encore, Genin's “Tarantella.” The flying agility of his scales, the evenness and rapidity of his trills, brought out to splendid advantage the qualities of his instrument, the colora- tura soprano. pf the orchestra. Two dainty and melodious little pieces for the string orchestra, described as “reminiscences’’ in music of scenes vis- ited in Europe just before the war, were Thumser’s contfibution to the program. They were a seranade, entitied “In Amalfi,” and a cappricio, “Le Belle Viennoise.’’ The orchestra played two operatic numbers, the overture to Weber's “Oberon,”’ and selections from ‘Aida.”’ A first-time performance of Sousa's “Presidential Polonaise’ was well re- ceived, and as an encore “The Star- Spangled Banner’’ was played, musi- cians and audience standing. The usual large hudience was present, and almost every number was encored. LECTURE ON THE SUBMARINE An illustrated lecture on “The Sub- marine’ will be delivered tomorrow night by Lieut.

Knemy -merchantmen, when recognized as such, were ordered wv be sunk at sight, but neutral merchant- men were to be warned when such ac- tion, in their judgment, was consistent with the object of the campaign and the safety of their own ships. Likely Only to Defer Break, It is realized, however, after the stand taken by President Wilson that these orders can only be palliative and only defer, not avoid, an _ ultimate Break. Also, that if President Wilson stands by his announcement that the act of hostility, a casus belli must come sooner or later—probably sooner on account of the number of Americans on enemy ships. Moreover, there is the discretionary nature of the instructions to. submarine commanders, who were informed that while the careful course toward neutrals was recommended, and desired, they would no longer be sub- jected to punishment for departing from foliowing detailed story of the situation in Germany with re- spect to the submarine campaign was written by a staff correspond- ent of the Associated Press, formerly stationed at Berlin, who reached Copenhagen Saturday: COPENHAGEN, via London, Feb. 11. ..Little hope or expectations prevail in Berlin that war with the United States is avoidable, or that a mocaus vivendi reconciling the policies of the two Gov- ernments can be found. There is a desire on the part of the authorities and a vast bulk of the peo- ple to avoid actual hostility in any way consistent with: the general lines of the present submarine policy, but only in such a way. Accordingly, instructions were given, so the Associated Press has been reliably informed, to submarine commanders before they started on their February mission, to take the safe The in Germany. To the observer in Berlin, the ap- proach of the crisis had been plainly and definitely evident since the rejection of Germany’s peace overtures. Informa: tion as to Germany’s definite decision to start a sharpened submarine war and even the form it would take, name- ly, a blockade of specified regions (al- though the idea of a “prohibited zone” was later substituted for that of a “blockade” at the request of the naval authorities who anticipated possible formal objections under the blockade regulations), was received by the As- sociated Press almost on the day fol- lowing Ambassador Gerard’s speech on German-American good relatjons, de- livered at the banquet of the American Association of Commerce and Trade, early in January. A week later it was stated that a full decision on the situation had not been reached and that the campaign would , not be launched until after further con- sultations with Germany’s allies and the receipt of certain information from . Count von Bernstorff and Count Tar- nowski von Tarnow, respectively, Ger- man and Austro-Hungarian Ambassa- dors to the United States, of their con- cept of armed merchantmen and their liability to attack as warships. When Final Decision Came. The final decision on submarine cam- paign of a so-called ruthless type ap- parently was taken at the grand Aus- tro-German conference at German head- quarters on the German Imperor'’s birthday, although the Associated Press heard the statement that submarines departing several days earlier for sta- tions on the submarine hunting grounds were provided with contingent orders for this eventuality. The censorship, however, held down tightly on any definite statements or predictions of the approaching cmss. The Associated Press being then in- formed from usually reliable sources that it was desired for marine and tech- nical reasons to have the decision come as a surprise. This intimation was ccn- veyed confidentially to the German newspapers. All dispatches going into the subject in detail, however, were either suppressed entirely or references to coming events censored out of them, and the only resource was to use again Bayer Tablets °f i ih iv * % t NE Me Your protection against counterfeits Every package and every tablet bears “The Bayer Cross—Your Guarantee of Parity’’ Pocket Boxes of 12, Bottles of 24 and Bottles of 100 The trade-mark ‘‘Aspirin”’ (Reg.

Ambassador Gerard, of course, was aware of the current gossip and possibly was able to advise the State Department of the possible turn in events, even while the echoes of his banquet speech were still resounding. But he received no intimation from official sources. At his interview with Foreign Minister Zirm- merman, the day before the Chancellor’s official announcement in the Reichstag of a ruthless submarine campaign, Zim- mermanh gave him no definite statement on the morrow’s proceedings, although the decisions had been reached and the text of the note and the memorandum were ready. Announcement to Heichstag First. The Ambassador and the American Government therefore were met with the announcement of a fact accom- plished when, on the afternoon of Jan. 31, Dr. von Bethmann-Hollweg, the Im- perial Chancellor, promulgated in the news that a relentless submarine campaign would and again the word “blockade” in dis-| begin immediately and read to the gom- mittee the text of the memorandum on the prohibited zone and the note to the United States—documents which reached the American embassy several” hours later. There was therefore no opportunity or an occasion, as in the days of the Sussex trouble, for any negotiations to prevent the crisis or an attempt to stave off the coming break between the two countries. Nothing could be done except to re- port to Washington the developments which appeared in the press of the world before the embassy dispatches had started from Berlin, and await th« anticipated explosion. This came in the form of a rupture of relations earlier than even Americans had expected, and certainly with ja promptness which astonished, and per- haps even dismayed, the German offi- cial world, prepared though it was for energetic American action by reason of the definite warnings in the Sussex correspondence. Long Deliberation on Name, The announcement of the plan of ruthless submarining was preceded by | extended deliberations as t& the name Which should be given to it, the ques- tion of its relative efficacy and the thoroughness of the measures against Sea-borne trade to entente countries entering importantly into the problem. Whether the new campaign siould be launched as a formal blockade or have some other name, the number of avail- able submarines, the extent of the ter- ritory to be covered and the efficiency of the individual submarine ali had their bearing upon the selection of the name, since a blockade, if it were ‘le- clared, would have to come up to the requirements of reasonable effective- ness, if inconvenient neutral protests were to be avoided. Apparently, the decision was against the use of the word “blockade,” al- though the German term ‘‘see sperre”’ literally ‘sea closure’ is susceptible of translation as ‘‘blockade’” and the As- sociated Press correspondent after a consultation with German language ex- perts, used this translation in his first Continued on Next Page.

WASHINGTON, -Feb. 12.—A_ special train today brought a delegation of the emergency peace federation here from New York, Philadelphia and other East- ern cities to solicit members of Con- gress on behalf of pending measures to provide a popular referendum obdefore declaring war. They arranged a dem- onstration and meetings for which pea-e advocates were the chief speakers. At a meeting of the delegation earl’ in the day the federation pledged itself in favor of th2 referendum resolution. Frank Stephens of the Delaware Singie Tax Association presided. A resolution adopteu expressed: “Karnest support to the President of the United States in his steadfast ef- fort to secure by peaceful methods a right of settlement of international con- flicts, not alone between the United States and Germany, but among, or Kuropean brothers in their fraternal strife.”’ It further declared ‘“‘it to be our de- sire to serve our country by doing everything in our power to maintain its leadership in the work of attaining world peace and doing away forever with ‘he war system and all its con- sequences,’’ but that ‘‘we hold war in abhorrence, * * * one of the supreme crimes against humanity.”’ More than a hundred of the delegates crowded into the President’s room at the Capitol, where sévera!l addressed Senator Stone, chairman of the For- eign Relations Committee, making earn- est pleas to keep the nation out of war. Senator Stone thanked the delegation and assured them that the President ‘tand Congress were doing all in their power to preserve peace. “With your desire to keep the nation out of war,’’ said Senator Stone, “‘and to preserve: peace of the country I am in very profound sympathy and I hope and trust that nothing may arise which would seem to make anv hostility in- evitable. Congress will do its best.t9 keep the nation out of war.” BRITAIN'S EXPENDITURES SINCE WAR BEGAN $21,000,000,000 Daily Average %28,950,000 at Present Time—National Debt at End of Year Will Be Over $19,000,000,000. LONDON, Feb. 12.—The average daily expenditure of Great Britain is now £5,790,000 ($28,950.000), Andrew Bonar Law, Chancellor of the Exchequer, announced in the House of Commons today. The Chancellor said the total expenditure Since the beginning of the war was £4,200,000,000 ($21,000,000,000). At the end of the current year the national debt would stand between 1f3,- 8C0,000,000 and £3,900,000,000 ($19,000,000,000 and $19,500,000,000). Advances to allies and dominions would approximate 1{390,- 000.000 ($1,950,000,000). The number of ap- vlications and the amount applied for by the general public for the loan, the Chancellor said, were larger*than ever before. The feature of today’s was the introduction of two new notes of credit aggregating £00,- 000,000 ($2,750,000,000), one for £200,000,- 000, to cover expenses to March 31, the end of the present fiscal year, and the other for #£350,000,000 to start the next financial vear. ; program ‘lowers for Valentine,$] up.

What better incentive to save—and to provide future needs—than a day like Tuesday? ‘s Every thrifty housewife knows that EAGLE STAMPS have a pos- itive value. She knows that they are a factor in the family treasury. And the day that brings her TWO of these valuable stamps, in- stead of one, is the day that prompts her to anticipate her needs as far as she can. That day will be TOMORROW—TUESDAY. Look for the February Sale Tickets--- They Are True Guides to Economy as One H undred Winter Coats Drop ~Y and More The principal point of interest about these splen- did Coats is the big reduction in price. But there is another point that will not be overlooked by the woman who believes in economy. Here it is: These Coats Will Be Just as Good Another Season as They Are Today. So in buying these styles you are making an invest- ment that will be appreciated next season as well as this. - os There are wool velours, diagonals, Bolivia cloths, velveteens and broadcloths—in the smartest belted and flaring styles.

And isn’t it wholly logical that a man should see the advantage in buying a $15, $18 or $20 Suit or Overcoat for $11—especially when he KNOWS that the black, and'a rich, laste. garment will serve many a future purpose? 7 : . Look at it in this way: Here is an assortment of Suits that in- cludes all the popular styles. It offers you cheviots, worsteds, cas- simeres, blue serges and novelty weaves in every size. It enables you to have the Suit you want— the Suit that will finish out the Winter and start the Spring sea- son in a fresh, new way. The Overcoats likewise offer MORE than a garment for the present. And, when good woolens are going higher every day, one of these Coats will be better appre- ciated in the future than it is now. So, as you can plainly see, this $11 Sale is a genuine opportunity.

Toe the Fditor of the Post-Dispatch. I notice that the Grant-Dent Memorial Assocla- tion proposes to purchase the house on South Broadway where Eugene Field was not torn. “Here Was Born ugene Field, the Poet,” reads the bronze tablet, misplaced on the outer wall of that house. If the association desires to purchase and preserve the house where Eugene Field lived ag a emall boy, that {s the house to handle. The house where he was born, on Collins street, has disappeared. Innocently, I am responsible to some extent for the marking of the house where Eugene Field was not born. As a member of the Post-Dispatch staff about 15 years ago I suggested a story on Hugene Field in St. Louis, to be run on the day designated by the State Superintendent of Public Instruction as “Eugene Field Day” In the schools. (By the way, what has become of Eugene Field day?) My suggestion was approved and I was assigned to get the story. I interviewed several persons who had .known Field more or less intimately when he lived here as a young newspaper man. Also J interviewed his guardian, an elderly gen- tleman now dead, whose name at the moment I cannot recall. This gentleman, a lawyer and a close friend of Judge Field, father of Eugene and Roswell M. Field, was guardian of both the Field Woys. In reply to a specific query as to where BHugene Field was born, his guardian told me it was the house on South Broadway. Originally known as South Fifth street, which now bears the bronze tablet. I made no further inquiries, as- suming that the guardian should know. During the World's Fair the University Club raised a fund to mark the house. Mark Twain and David R. Francis unveiled the tatlet. The next week Roswell M. Field came down from Chi- cago on a still hunt for the house where he and Wugene was born. He could not identify even the locality, so changed was it—somewhere north of HWads Bridge, near the river. I learned later that the University Club clipped my story from the first page of the Post-Dispatch and accepted without question the location men- tioned and proceeded to mark the house where Hugene Field, the poet, was not born, In ithe Interest of accuracy that tablet should . be revised, ROBERTUS LOVE. ——— Aliens in City Jobs. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I notice in your paper the statement that “25 men, ‘saying they were employes at the city hall, applied for their first papers.” It would seem to the writer that there might be enough citizens of the United States, natives of Missourt, or even St. Louls, who could creditably fill the jobs at the city hall without giving them to men who had never taken the trouble to apply for their first naturalization papers. We have helped the Bel- gians and the Jews in Hurope, and those who needed help @ll over the globe, but why not do a little first ald work for United States citizens by giving them the good jobs at home?

Is Germany prepared to take over this expense?" This moves one to a too painful surmise. it be that your didactic editorial judgment is often based upon misinformation so complete? The facts are that the Belgian relief is costing $17,000,000 a month, of which Amertcans have contributed $9,000,000 1n 30 months and the tal- ance not by neutrals, but by the French Republic and British Empire, less $2,000,000 by neutrals other than the United States.

G. ABBOTT. ( two systems is ridicluous. Can TRAINED CITIZEN SOLDIERS. The bill providing for universal military train- ing favorably reported to the United States Sen- ate by the Committee on Military Affairs em- bodies sound demo¢ratic principles and pro- poses a great advafice in our system of military preparedness. The measure establishes and enforces the ob- ligation of citizens to serve the nation for de- fense and insures preparation for efficient serv- ice. It establishes equality of service for all citi- zens physically fit and available for service, rich or poor, influential or humble. Neither money nor favor will relieve citizens of the duty of training and: serving. It is antimilitaristic because it removes the | necessity for a large standing army of profes- sional paid soldiers. Every available citizen being @ trained soldier in the reserves, subject to call for national defense, the standing army may be reduced to a minimum. It provides for the general welfare by except- ing those who have relatives dependent upon their labor. It relieves the trained citizen soldiery from po- lice duty in strikes or labor disturbances. It limits service to the purpose of national de- fense, so that the great army of trained re- serves cannot be called for aggression or other vicious object. By beginning the period of training at the nineteenth year, and requiring only six months of active military work, it requires the least possible interference with the life work of citi- zens. In addition to military preparedness, it makes for sound patriatism by emphasizing in the minds of young men at their most impressionable age the obligation of public service and the duty of preparing to give efficient service. It makes for good citizenship and the efficien- cy of the manhood forces of the nation in peace by providing valuable instruction and discipline for the young men of the country. The young men will be better mentally, physically and mor- ally through their training. It makes for peace, because the citizens of the country engaged in every form of professional, commercial and industrial occupation will be its soldiers. The army will be composed of voters, with the responsibility of government resting upon them. Nations will know that the United States fs prepared for defense. It adds to the responsibiltiy for national de- fense on the part of the Government, and the people the power to command the resources nec- essary for defense. It enables the Government to organize the country efficiently for every branch of national defense. Under the volunteer system citizens are called to arms without adequate preparation when war comes. It is a suicidal system, exposing the country to the dangers and disasters of unpre- paredness and dooming thousands of untrained citizens to death. The system is both dangerous and costly. It is wholly inadequate and inevi- tably ends in case of real war in conscription. Under the universal training system, the coun- try would have ready for war emergency an army of 3,000,000 trained citizens prepared at all times for efficient service in its defense. When the citizen soldiers are not needed for service they are not in barracks, but at their homes engaged in pe&ceful and profitable occupations. In the light of history, and particularly of our own experience, comparison between the The volunteer sys- tem spells cost, failure, danger. The universal training system means security, economy and success. Congress ought to pass at the earliest possible a measure embodying the main provisions of the Chamberlain bill. The people ought to demand it as a measure of wise and needful | ness. Perhaps the fI[llinoisan who has ‘10 times escaped the gallows was born for death by a submarine. ? ‘ = |]. = — THE LIBERATOR OF CONSCIENCE. Four hundred years ago an emaciated August- infan monk walked boldly through the market crowds at Wittenberg, im Germany, and posted @ notice on the door of the Castle Church. From that day in 1617 dates the birth of Protestantism and the declaration of independence of conscience. The quadricentennial of that event is this year be- ing celebrated tn churches from Terra del Fuego to the Cattegat and beyond. The cowled monk was Martin Luther and the notice on the church door, though merely con- taining 95 theses or headings for debate on the system of selling indulgences for the remission of sins, resulted in a controversy that eventuated in the Council of Trent and in religious liberty. Luther was of the people. He surrounded himself with no halo of exalted righteousness. Morally he was no better than his times. He drank his beer as all Saxons did and his habits of living were those of his neighbors. Lather had the courage to say what thousands of others thought. Lather’s creed swept through Germany like fire through summer-dried brush. Prince after Prince accepted the new faith. With modifications, it entered the countries to the north and to the England of Henry VIII. Luther died a disappointed man. The religious reform which he had instituted grew faster than he had planned; the snowball started at the Castle Church in Wittenberg grew too great for him to handle, In his last years he was more: ‘ than he was against the Vatican. He quarreled with Erasmus, Zwingli and Meiancthon. He would have none of their advanced theology. The great thing that Luther did was to make men think about religion and not to accept a dogma as .rue because it had been accepted as true for hundreds of years. (=~ * — a THE CHILD-BEATERS’ FRIEND. It is Judge Sanders’ opinion that the father who marks the body of his young son with 45 rawhide welts for tarrying on his way home from choir practice is well within his rights, and his flaying efforts to keep the 9-year-old desperado out of the penitentiary are worthy of commenda- tion. That is very well as far as it goes. It sanctions 45 stripes as the suitable penalty for tarrying on the way home from choir practice, but it does not ‘enlighten child-beaters as to how many blows are allowable for graver offenses. It appears from the statement of the father and the report of the probation officer that Robert plays truant from Sunday school and church. And he is untruthful and he sometimes pilfers things and he has learned to shoot craps. It would be interesting to know how many welts Judge Sanders would ap- prove for these crimes. Such precocity as this youth is exhibiting may well cause concern, but the method of dealing with it adopted by this father and sanctioned by this Judge have been abandoned in all first-class pen- itentiaries. If the delinquency of this child is to have no other treatment than beating by the fath- er, with the permission and approval of Judge Sanders, he will be fortunate to get into some good penitentiary by and by, where such tenden- cies are dealt with intelligently. = = * — a AMERICANS ARE EMOTIONAL. What a precious lot of humbugs we Ameri- cans are. We boast of our hard-headedness, our practicality. We flatter ourselves that we are not an emotional people and profess a superior- ity over races which give way easily to bursts of sentiment. But for downright emotionalism and enthusiasm it is hard to surpass the Amer- ican when he is properly aroused. A Quartermaster in the Coast Guard the other day thrashed a man whom he saw wiping his dirty hands on the Stars and Stripes. The Sons of the Revolution have aiready arranged to give him a medals the presentation is to be made an elaborate ceremony at which Major-General Leonard Wood has been asked to preside. The obscure guard of yesterday is today famous. The ascendancy of the newest popular idol in France could not have been more rapid. This is a manifestation, however, of which no American can be ashamed. Honest sentiment has accomplished as much if not more in the actual progress of humanity as cold reason. Somebody once said that if you scratch any crusty Scotch- man you will find Robert Burns under the skin. Scratch any average American’s assumed coat of reserve and you will find under it as much fiery enthusiasm as ever sent a fanatical Moslem army to charge against the most overwhelming odds. (= — =. WAR AND TEMPERAMENT. Eugene Ysaye, the Belgian violinist, filling a St. Louis engagement, declared that the war, so far terribly destructive of European art, may be art’s chief inspiration in the future—that its years may be the initial years in a new era of art. Pictorial art has already received a very defi- nite impetus from the fighting. France's paint- ers and etchers of military age are all in the ranks, a large proportion of them doing actual service in or near the trenches. Now open at the Tuileries in Paris is a notable exhibition of the work they have been able to do in leisure moments. The collection is said to consist of no less than 3000 different productions, oil paintings, water colorg, sketches of various forms. — Each one of these pictures bears on the back the certificate of the artist’s commanding officer that it was made within the sound of the guns and particularly interesting is the public verdict that the average merit is “high, amazingly high.” After the exhibition has ended in Paris one may hope that a part or all-of the works may be placed on view in this country. That Paris, in its present tension, could enter- tain the idea of holding such an exhibition, and particularly that such an -astonishing wealth of creations was found available to lend it distinc- tion attests to the qualities of that complex thing we are fond of calling the soul of the French people. i DIVERTISEMENT OF THE TEN PAPOOBSES. The divertisement oi the 10 papooses in Mon- tana seems to have been staged especially for relief of mind during the tension and suspense resulting from our grave European difficulties. spied by a group of squaws as they entered Great Falls to market the output of aboriginee man- ufactories.. They had come a long way and were weary. The babies they carried on their backs were heavy; so were the bales of bead- work and embroidered buckskin they desired to convert into money. The passenger coach was warm, conveniently located, inviting. What was more natural than that the Indian mothers should leave their infants, painstakingly dis- posed, within the shelter of the car while they went on into the town to look for purchasers? ' There were 10 of the little red babies, but aft- er the women had gone, a snorting switch engine backed down the siding, hooked onto the coach and thundered away to attach it to a train for transfer to another point. After a time the mothers came back. It didn’t look like the same siding. Coach was gone; babies were gone. The infuriated squaws dug up the hatchet and went on the warpath against the Great Northern Rail- road system. But perhaps their consternation was not so very much greater than that of the train hands 40 miles down the track. Entering the “empty” they were hauling, they discovered the 10 hun- gry, squawling papooses. Running as a special under orders giving it right of way over all other traffic, the passen- ger coach was brought back fust in time to save ithe division superintendent's scalp. ee I bitter against the new creeds of peenaiibiiitions -- : wi rs ‘ et ? é ty > 3 7 at “ ; ox Or ae : eS é an = rs te PO aor > we, ~ Us ig * ‘9. 4 > ap! .

PNo one knows what to do about these @ress-mad little school girls, who are tempted beyond their power of re- f sistance by the finery of their better- Moff classmates.

Let every fond mother remember that every fluttering ribbon, every spark- ling piece of jewelry, every lustrous. bit of silk or satin with which she adorns the body of her own little girl, may be the means of sending the soul of some other mother’s little girl to perdition. We no longer ask now, “Am I my brother’s keeper?” We know that we are. We'know even more truly -that we are our sister’s keeper, and that: we dare not shirk our- responsibility ° to- wards these poor little girls who have not the strength to stand alone by themselves and fight the demon of dress. The finery temptation comes to the school girl at the time of life when she has least power to resist it. When we Srow older we attain a certain philoso- phy, and an endurance that enables us to accept the chances of fate with an even mind, and to see people more for- tunately placed than we are without making ourselves miserable about it. Clothes also drop to their real position in the scheme of things. K want the world and the fullness thereof. We want everything that anyone else has, and every denial of our desires, every disappointment, is a blow under which we are crushed to the earth. And especially do we want’ to dress like our companions. There is no woman, save the few darlings of fortune, who cannot recall the shame that burned her to the quick when she had to wear an old dress to some party at which all the other girls had new dresses, or the tears she shed over some other girl’s hair ribbon being half an inch wider than hers, or the passion of yearning with which she longed for a pair of silk stockings, such as the rich girl in her little set wore. Therefore, women, at least, will un- derstand how a school girl may be led to take the false step that will wreck her whole life just to gratify her desire to dress as well as her classmates, and no woman has a right to pray. ‘‘Lead us not into temptation,’’ unless she her- self has consciously refrained from lead- ing some silly little girl into wrong- doing by dressing her own daughter so plainly when she goes to school that’she will not be a temptation to her poor schoolmates. ATURALLY, it will be said that N you cannot put the whole world of women into a drab uniform to protect the poor weakling, and that as soon as she gets out of school she will face all the allurements of fashion and find the devil of pretty things beck- oning to her from every shop window.

LOUIS POST-DISPATCH TS er RN acetate rT Ons of gas poisoning are un- fortunately of much too fre- quent occurrence, and as it is often impossible to get a ee immediately, it is well to —or : e best thing to do while you wert sie the doctor. The first thing of cae is to open all the windows to pur y the air and then turn off the source of the supply of gas. Then look to | your patient. If he or she is pean e ly conscious but complains of head- ache or dizziness or nausea and shows great relaxation of the muscles and is so drowsy as to be difficult to rouse, give at once a dose of effervescing phosphate of soda in a glass of Wa- ter. Any drug store keeps this. Or if you can get it more quickly sive 4 elass of plain soda water followed in five minutes by half a teaspoonful of aromatic spirits of ammonia. in 2 third glass of water. This last dose can be repeated in 15 minutes if neces- sary. And in severe cases twice again at 15 minute intervals, making four doses in all, but do not under any circumstances give more than this. ‘it the patient is able to stand let him walk around with somebody support- ing him on each side until he recov- ers. But even after this he must be watched, as he may have a sinking spell, in which case the same treat- ment may be repeated. But if the sufferer is unable to walk he is much more seriously affected and is apt to breathe very weakly but rap- idly and to be unconscious or but half conscious. In this case waste not ua moment before sending for the doctor. and if you cannot get your regular physician quickly get somebody else. But before the physician arrives bring room that is entirely free from gas. Place him on his back on a flat sur- face, a bed or couch, or even the floor if there is plenty of air in the room. Roll a blanket or coat and place under neck and shoulders so as to make the head fall back when he is lying on his back and have two people rub the legs and arms hard on the skin toward tle body. 'As soon as he is conscious give lialf a teaspoonful of aromatic spirits of ammonia in a third glass of water. Repeat this dose twice or three times if necessary at 15-minute intervals. If unconsciousness continues and the doc- tor has not yet arrived, open the mouth, prying open the jaw if neces- sary, place a small block of wood or ua tight wad of folded cloth between the teeth on one side to keep the jaw from closing and pull the tongue forward with the fingers, clearing the mouth of froth with a scooping motion of the fin- ger. Put a bottle of household am- monia (ordinary ammonia) or of am- monia smelling salts once a minute un- der the sufferer’s nose*‘as he breathes in. .Help the patient to breathe by pressing the lower part of the ribs to- gether every other time the breath is expelled. Continue this pressing mo- from dress. It makes women ruin their husbands with their extravagance and work their poor old fathers to death to supply them with finery. Above al] other causes, it is the cause that sends women to the streets. Three-fourths of the girls who go wrong do not do it for love of some man, but for love of clothes. They sell their souls for a French confection. The one passion that animates their hearts is the passion for gew-gaws. And, strange to say, the mothers, in- stead of trying to eradicate this love of dress in their daughter’s breasts, and teaching them what a danger it is, cul- tivate it. The’ other day a mother told me with pride that her little girl of 4 re- fused to put on a dress because it had been bo@ght in a department store in- stead of a high-priced baby specialty shop. As well might a father boast that his little boy in the kandergarten could distinguish between Scotch and rye whisky. Liquor is no more dangerous a temptation to a boy than dress is to a girl. Thoughtful women everywhere are anxious to help their sex. They can best do this by teaching women not to bow down to chiffons, and by combat- ing the temptation to overdress. This reform must be started by the women at the top. They must set the example, for they are their sisters’ keepers. (Copyright, 1917, by the Wheeler Syndi- / cate. Inc.) sot; 7 Beefsteak Pie.

Thata The St. Leos, stili badly broken up as a result of injuries, played poor soc- cer, this being especially true of the forward line. The front line men did not seem to know what to do with the ball when within scoring distance. Matt Diedrichsen, star forward of the Innis- fails, who was scheduled to make his reappearance in the lineup, was _ not used, Manager Foley not being willing to take a chance on his injured knee with the poor condition of the field, which was frozen and very rough. In the first half the Leos, who by yesterday’s drubbing were practically eliminated from the pennant fight, fairly held their own against the Irishmen, who now have a record of four victories in the last five played, the period end- ing 0—0.

Following his present tour, which ends im May, Hoppe will oppose Or- lando Morningstar—pipe the Shaks- peare moniker, Bo—and Koji Yamada, That is to say, the total ac- count of Hoppe’s opponents will be added together, against Willie’s score, each player shooting in turn.

Granting both maximums, they would still be short of the wonderful performance of Hoppe, who averaged over 60 for 11,000 points. HAT is because of the exasperat- ing regularity with which the East has, year after year, refused to scatter any national championshi) crumbs among the provinces of the Occident. The East, which once held a mon- opoly of the star tennis players, nv longer does. The districts which produce many championship factors now naturally want to see their rep- resentatives play for the title on home courts. ‘ Wasterners explain this on three grounds: (1) That the vast majority of championship timber is to be found near the Atlantic seaboard, from Philadelphia to Boston, (2) The West contains no suit- able grass courts on which to play title tournaments, (3) The elay court title was eupecially created to give the West a champliouship suited to its mormal playing conditions. This is said with truth, too. Therc is but little doubt that, if the Na- tional champfonship had been award- ed to San Francisco in the past, only a few high-class players could have afforded to make the trip; whereas, played,in or near New York, prac- tically three-fourths of the cham- pionship material . vas available. California’s Claims Strong. HIS, however, must also be con- ! sidered: That California has al- most as many stars, among the first 20 United States players, as the en- tire country COMBINED.

The body of 4 man was chor- ped from the ice in the basement today. Mrs. Lucille Squire suffered a frac- tured skull when she leaped from a third-story window. She died shortly afterward at the city hospital. A score were injured by leaping from windows when the one fire escape becaine im- passable. A thick layer of ice covers the ruins, hampering the search for victims. 76 in Hotel at Time of Fire. Seventy-six persons are thought to have been in the hotel when the fire started and a cotrplete che'x of tre sur- vivors is being hurried to establish the loss of life. The flre is thought to have started in the basement. Flames quickly enveloped the building. The one fire escape was soon wrapped in flames, and the persons in the building rushed to windows, from which they jumped into snowbanks and improvised nets. When the fire broke out most of the By CARLOS F. HURD. T HE power of a plain story is proven LONDON, Feb. 12.—Earl M. Rice of Portland, Ore., ship’s surgeon of the Mantola, and the only American on board her, is among the survivors of the ‘torpedoed steamer who have arrived in London. He gave the Associated Press the following account of the sinking: “The first we knew was the sound of a violent explosion which shook the ship from end to end, at 1:40 p. m., on Thursday. The sea was fairly rough, but the ship maintained an even keel and excellent order was preserved. Capt. Chaves immediately ordered the boats launched. “Seven Lascars were killed by the ex- plosion. The remainder of those on board were unhurt. Everybody got safe- ly into the boats, with the exception of the captain, the.chief engineer and the wireless. operator, who were to fol- low us later. ; S 0 8 Calls Sent Out. “Nobody had seen the submarine and everybody in the boats was peering into the haze in a vain effort to catch a Elimpse of the periscope. An hour and a ‘half after the torpedoing, the cap- tain, the engineer and the wireless men got the wireless working and began sending out S O S calls. “The reply came almost instantly, but i “tee in “Common Clay,” which had its nson has declared ruth] War first St. Louis rendering last night age hynny at Cun a. order at the Jefferson Theatér. ‘ the. fact that baseball magnate.

And he got out of it every pulsation of dramatic force that it contained. None of this force was lost in transmission to the audience, by the very able cast, which was the New York cast with but two {mportant exceptions. Familiar elements of melodrama are here treated with originality and bold- ness. We see the poor working girl tempted by her employer’s son, but she is not the pitifully unsophisticated crea- ture we might expect. Here is a play- wright bold enough to tell us that the girl has a bit of a past, and that, when he heir of the house spreads his net, she has a definite idea of what he is up to, and yields because she wishes to, and in a spirit of ‘“‘What’s the use?’’ His Conquest Planned.

Her child, he thought, had not heen born. Admit the possibility that he was-mistaken as to this, and you have the basis for the rest of the story, which becomes a case of coinci- dence. Some have said that the long erm of coincidence is stretched rather far in this case, but if you are not go- ing to allow a playwright one good, strong, startling coincidence to a play, yeu will presently not haye much. left either in spoken drama or the, JAnevies, and even vaudeville will have to limit itself to juggling acts. Court Scene Powerful. The courtroom scene, when the rela- tionships of the play’s chief figures be- come established through the admis- sions of a garrulous old woman, is sim- pler and more concentrated than other courtroom scenes of recent dramas. Its nowerful emotional appeal should end the play. The epilogue, ‘10 years later, ’ approximates pure piffle, and weakens the performance for the sake of a felic- itous finale. John Mason, a sterling actor, played the lawyer’s role with a mellow world- liness which admitted of emotional dis- play at fitting times. Clara Joel, as the girl, was most effective in telling of her reasons for her first mistake, the chief reason being that she, living in a poor home, wished to have the things which she saw rich girls have. She did not convince one that, if she had had ihe privileges of wealth, she would have been any more willing to observe the proper restraints of girlhood; but it did not appear, from the dialogue, that she was intended to convince one of this. Her disdain of ‘‘the greatest of all indoor sports—dishwashing’’ was amusing, even in the bitter recital in which it was expressed.

The Kenwood was a landmark. Fire Chief Charles Ringer issued a de- tailed statement today showing that practically all downtown fire apparatus had been called to two other blazes shortly before the hotel fire broke out, thus causing delay in the arrival of the first company, members of which were attacked by the crowd of spectators driven frantic by cries of entrapped women on the top floors. Capt. Joseph Sullivan was struck on the head with a plank and members of the company handled roughly because they carried no ladders. Sullivan or- dered the hose turned on the crowd.
