There was a dramatic and startling interruption of the arson conspiracy trial in Judge Shields’ court ioday when Charies H.

Imel. x The bribe money was exhibited court. It was $8 in currency, made up of six $5 bills and two $10 bills. Lang ' gaid it was pressed upon him by a man. he knew as “‘McMahon.”’ He under- stood McMahon was a brother-in-law of Bersch. Developments quickly followed this disclosure. Thomas T. Fauntleroy and P. H. Cullen withdrew as attorneys for the defendants. Cireuit Attorney McDaniel ordered de- tectives to find and arrest McMahon and announced there would be a grand jury “Y“nvestigation. ‘YErial Continued to May 2.

WASHINGTON, April 18.—Oppo- nents of the selective conscription plan got the upper hand in the House Military Committee today, and voted 12 to 8, the new army bilil carry a proviston to first try to raise the new force by volunteers. Meanwhile the bill, including the con- scription provision, was approved by the Senate Military Committee 10 to 7. Reed of Missouri voted for it. While the two committees were act- ing, the President was at the Capitol couferring with Senate leaders on the administration ‘var measures, particu- larly the army bill. The President told the Senators he would consent to no compromise be- cauee the War Department experts, aft- er careful examination and discussion, had decided that selective conscription was the only effective way of raising 2 strong army. The administration expects the army bill to be made the unfinished business of the Senate, so that it can be pushed to passage promptly. Then, with the prestige of having passed the, Senate, the measure is expected to receive more prompt and favorable consideration in the House. ; Republicans Support Plans. The President was assured that the majority of Repu¥Vlicans in the House were supporting his plans. The vote in the House Committee threw the situation into confusion. The opponents of a straight conscription plan immediately began to draft amend- ments in the hope of getting the con- scription elemefit to join in a united vote. Chairman Dent and Representatives Field, pe escent geen yan Calds and Hull ofle , to use consertption after ‘a call for vol- unteers apportioned among the states to be officered in the same way as pro- posed in the administration bill. The Senate Committee rejetced an amendment by Senator McKellar au- thorizing the President to call for 600,- 000 volunteers, and made only a few changes in the bill as drawn by the army general staff. One amendment would bar liquors from all camps where the new army is to be trained and another would in- clude persons engaged in agriculture in the industries exempted from service on account of military reasons. Those for Amendment. Seators who voted for the McKellar: amendment were Reed, Kirby, Thomas and Hitchcock and McKellar, Demo- crais, and Uew and Sutherland, Re- publicans. Senators on the committee said the War Department estimates that if the measure passes the first 500,000 men will be in training Camps by Aug. 1. The liouse Committee’s action was a straight out decision for the principle of a volunteer system first of all, ap- plying. both as to filling up the ranks of the regular army, the national guard and the raising of the new army. But when the volunteer system fails to provide sufficient number of men the President. would have authority t» resort at once to selective conscription. Chairman Dent made this statement: ‘The committee agreed to put. in. the bill provisions for a call for 500,000 voi- unieers in the first instance and for 500,000 more if the President wants them, the number in each case contemplated in the administration bill for conscrip- tion. “The bill has not yet fixed the mili- tary age, but it probably will be be- tween 21 and #,’instead of the 19 to| Continued on Page 2, Column 5. to have ID HNTRES ARS. FOR NEW ORLEANS FUR WAR SERVICE Missouri Naval Reserve Flagship Expected to Make 700 Miles in Ten Days. The converted yacht Huntress, flag- ship of the Missouri Naval Reserve, weighed anchor at the foot of Ferry street at 10:30 a. m. today and steamed away on a i70-mile cruise dowg the Mississippi River to’ New Orleans. She carried four officers and 23 men, all ico. The crew of the Huntress is only a small contingentsof the Missouri Naval Reserves. They left behind 275 men of St. Louis and Kansad? City who are under orders to go to the Great Lakes Training station tomor- row night. Lieutenant-Commander James Muir o? the naval reserves is in command. His wife and three boys were in the group of about 100 men and women who wit- nessed the departure. Commander G. F. Schwartz remained here and will command the contingent ordered to Chi- cago. As the Huntress pulled out, the 275 sailors whoa were to remain behind were drawn up at attention along the Mis- souri shore. The Huntress first steamed up the river about half a mile and then headed downstream at fair speed. It is estimated the voyage to New Orlvcans will be completed in about 10 days. After making about three miles down- stream the Huntress, on reaching Lewis street, seemed to be disabled. There was difficulty in steering and she put in at a landing near the Union Electric power station abdve Eads Bridge. “SEEDING MORE IMPORTANT THAN ELECTING CONGRESSMAN” re BISMARCK, N.

T. Helge- sen. “IT expect to call the election near future, but not immediately,’’ the Governor said. “The farmers at this/ time could not very well go to the polls, in the as all.of their time is demanded in the fields under the present conditions.”’ SOL VED by our Home Merchants.

M., BEGINNING MAY | Hotels and Restaurants Agree to May- or’s Order, Issued on Account of the War. NEW YORK, April 18.—Beginning May 1, New York will be dry between 1 and 6 a. m. Mayor Mitchel has so de- creed, the restaurants and hotels have agreed, and there is every reason to suppose the excise law will be enforced. By the new rule Healy’s, Reisenweb- er’s, the Midnight Follies, the Cocoanut mph and all such places will close at o'clock, instead of 2 a. m. as they Pie been doing. In addition, all gsa- loons and restaurants which have all night licenses will close at 1 o'clock. After a conference with the heads, of the Hotel and Restaurant Men's Asso- ciation, Mayor Mitchel said: “IT have decided to cancel for the period of the war all existing all-night licenses for the sale of intoxicating drinks. This action will become effec- tive May 1 and applies to every place holding such a permit, whether it. be a hotel, restaurant, saloon, cabaret or roof garden, and means these places must close at 1 o'clock. This action is taken because our country is at war, and at such a time it would seem not only lacking in .good taste but in a proper sense of the present. crisis for these places to remain open for dancing ‘and drinking as. heretofore.”’ DAILY RECRUITING AVERAGE FOR U, $. ARMY IS 1434 MEN WASHINGTON, April 18.—Recruiting figures for the regular army, made pub- lic by the War Department, show that more than enough men to form a regi- ment are being obtained daily. For the five-day period April 11 to li, a total of 7171 men were recruited, a daily average of 144. Twelve hundred men are required for a-regiment based on a peace footing of 100 men to the company. Enlistments in the navy. Saturday and Monday totalled 1635 men, bringing the combatant forsa of .that service up to 71,696 men. The maximum strength now is fixed at 87,000, but officials expect this week to receive Congressional! authoriza- tion raising the number to 150,000, CLUB RAISES FOOD PRICES Notice of a 10 per cent increase in the prices charged for food, was given today to diners in the Missouri Athietic Asso- clation’s club house. ~The notice was printed on a slip, reading as follows: “On account of the very heavy in- crease if the cost of food supplies and all materials used in the catering depart- ment, a charge of W per cent will be rnade on all food checks.” CAPE COD COAST GUARDS REPORT GUNFIRE AT SEA Possibly Target Practi-e by Patrol Vessels or Salute tu Allies’ Commisioners. WASHINGTON, April 18.—A_ report from a Cape Cod coast guard station, forwarded to the Navy Department by the Boston naval district commandant, says gun fire was heard this morning at sea, north of the station. Three coast guard stations in the Cape Cod region joined in the report, saying that the firing. was heard at 9:41 o’clock this morning. The Navy Department offered no ex- planation to the press. Possible expla- nations are target practice by patrol vessels or salute to the British and French commissioners, the date of whose arrival in this country has not been given out. BULLET-RESISTING HELMETS FOR AMERICAN MARINES Compromise Between French and British Types; Takes Nine Bullets to Break One in Test. WASHINGTON, April 18.—Bullet and shrapnel-resistant trench helmets have been adopted for the VU. 8. Marines. These ‘Soldiers of the Sea’ are the first American armed forces to adopt this headgear. The new Marine Corps helmet, with which the entire corps will be equippe!. is a compromise between the French ance the British types. It conforms to the size and shape of the average head ard can be snugly fitted by the adjustmen: of a cloth cap inside. It is made of a single piece of chilled steel. Under test the helmet resisted eight steel-jJacketed bullets at 100 feet from a rifle, and broke only upon the impact of the ninth mis- sile MOVE FOR WAR ECONOMY BY CITY Alderman Hall Proposes to Discon- tinue Park Concerts and Other Entertainments. Discontinuance of band concerts in parks and playgrounds, of municipal en. tertainments of all kinds and of games and recreations is proposed in a resolu- tion submitted to the Board of Alder- men yesterday by Alderman Hall. It was explained that the object of the resolution was to reduce municipal ex- penses during the war. The Board of Estimate and Apportion- ment is directed to eliminate from the annual budget, all appropriations for public concerts and entertainments. The ‘resolution was referred to the Ways and Means Committee and probably will not | be reported favorably, — Mea 0 wea SPANISH STEAMER 1S SUNK AND. 18 ABOARD ARE LOST Vessel Torpedoed Without Warn- ing by German Submarine, Report Says.

EXECUTIVE MANSION ATTACHES | TO TILL WHITE HOUSE “FARM Half Acre Once Sensh: by Henry Clay, Near President’r Home, to Be Made Object Lesson to Nation, WASHINGTON, April 18—A White House ‘‘farm,”’ with approval of Presi- dent Wilson, is to be started in Wash- ington on a site diagonally across from the executive mansion on Madison and Pennsylvania avenues. The ‘‘farm”’ will be used as an object lesson in the con- servation of food supplies. It has an area of half an acre and is owned by the Department of Justice. It was once owned by Henry Clay, who traded it for imported stock for his Kentucky farm.

Both of the sec- tions attacked had been left alone hith- erto, on account of the exceptional natural strength of the German posi- tions. The French command held that an assault could only be successfully un- dertaken when overwhelming resources had been accumulated and the general situation was favorable. The General who commands the armies of the right center had been planning) the attack for several weeks and had left nothing to chance. Everything was provided for and the chiefs under him had nothing to do but follow instruc- tions to the letter. As soon as the result of the battle hetween Soissons and Rheims was known the order was given to attack. Punctually at 4:4 the French infantry “went over,” well supported by a pow- erful mass of artillery. They swept forward in a magnificent style and in two hours the first line system had been captured. Later news came that the French soldiers were carrying all be- fore them and taking prisoners by the score. They seized Mont Carniliet, Mont Haut and al) the crests commanding the region. Hills Considered Nearly Impregnaahlie. From their new positions the French now look down on Moronviilieres and Nauroy. This Moronvililieres chain of hills was regarded by all French sol- diers who had ever been in the section as virtually impregnable and its cap- ture caused the liveliest satisfaction.

We are seeing the first blow. of a, Great Britain at least organized as was Germany in August, 1914; we are seeing the final effort of France, riadé after nearly three years of war and eacrifice | hardly paralleléd in the history of any nation. ‘Not less impressive is the Ger- man stand.

Yet, since Napoleon left Paris for hié final campaign, it is doubtful if any military crisis in Europe can be compared with the present. We are now looking. at a campaign whieh those who come after us for generations wil probably discuss and study, as many generations have studied and discusséd the Waterloo cam.- paign. First Steps to ‘tienes Drama. it is necesary in observing this new campaign to keép in mind this larger horizon, which is so easily ob- scured by the lesser incidents, each | so like to a seore of others that has }gone before. Thus, in @. sénsé, the British victory at Arras was Only an extension Of the results obtained by other attacks fm the history of trench warfare, and the later French attack is less. sucessful than the first Ger- man onrush at Verdun. Both are but the first steps in the mighty drama now unfolding, but it is to the larger drama that attention must steadily be directed. With the French attack, Which has }long been awaited has come the be- ‘ginning of the campaign of 1917, which, in the minds of all military observers will decide, even if it do0és not terminate, the great war that is now nearly three years old. The at- tack has come later than was géneér- ally expected, and in the end, rather as a surprise, for there had been a |} growing suspicion that thé Frénch were reserving their participation uf- til German purposé wag discléséa; In other words, tntil Hindenburg had indicated whether he inténaéed to make an offensive, atid whether, granted hé was to make one, tt would begin in the East or the West. Perhaps the most interésting circum- | stances in the new French ‘attack is the} fashion in which it reproduces the con- ditions of thé British attack last week. In this operation the British. struck aft the northern pivot of the great German f retreat. The French are attacking at the southérn, Wher the Germans be- @an Yast month to draw out of the lines on which they had stood since September, 1914, and started hack to the Hindenburg line, their northern flank rested upon the famous Vimy Ridge, north of Arras, and all the vast system a4 eritahgléments which had been con- | structéd there in two years and a hail. fA the game way their southern flank | Fested | upon. the Craonne plateau, an éveh stronger position, similarly cov- ered by entrenchments. | The British attack Sects | was de- signed to bréak the line just at the point where the new Hindenburg front joined the old line at Vimy Ridge.

A movement for organized conserva- tion of the food supply omy in other lines, because of the war, has been started by the women of Bt. and for econ- Louis. The plans of the though not yet perfected, with those adopted recently women of the official family ington, as an example to the women of the rest of the country. . ’ Chief among the regulations set down by the women of Washington are the following: 1. No meal to exceed three courses. ®9 One meatless day each week. 3. Entertainment and dress shall be simple and inexpensive. A meeting of women of the Equal Suffrage League and the Consumers’ League was held yesterday to discuss plans for a local conservation movement and a committee selected by the two organizations will meet today with offi- cials of the Chamber of Commerce to perfect the plan. Meeting to Be Called Soon. Other women’s organizations of the city will be invited to join in the move- ment and a meeting will be scheduled for a later date, at which it is hoped a majority of the women’s organizations will be represented, and that all will enlist in the move. The regulations set by the Washing- ton leaders for themselves provide for the elimination of the usual formal en- tertaining and practically all unneces- sary social activities. It was pointed out in a statement by Mrs. Robert Lansing, wife of the Secretary of State, that the adoption of the plan would enable the women to give more time and money to constructive preparedness and relief work, . ‘ In her statement Mrs. Lansing ap- pealed to the women of the country to follow the lead of the Washington women, pointing out that they should aid “not only as indivifluals, but by organizing to prevent actual suffering later on, and to hasten the end of the struggle for real democracy.” Many of St. Louis’ social leaders have approved the conservation plan adopted by Washington society, in interviews given to the Post-Dispatch, and several have already adopted economies of vari- ous sorts suggested by the plan. Following are the views of a number of St. Leuis women: “Myre, Rand Indorses Rules. Mrs. Frank C. Rand of 7100 Delmar boulevard indorsed the rules for a set plan Of economizing, pointing out that to follow them will make no radical change in her mode of living, even as re- gards dinners and entertainments. “Everybody tn the nation should aid in the conservation of food resources, eliminating all waste, and should econ- omige in every direction possible, I be- lieve,” she declared. ‘There is a great deal the women of the country can do toward economizing and I think discard- ing Javish dress and entertainment is an impertant step toward that end."’ Mrs. Pierre A. Garneau of 429 Berlin avenue said she has already begun economizing and doing without things she would like to have but which she feels are not really essential. “I started to economize with the start of the war," shé deciared. “I intended building a little cottage up north, but have postponed that because it was not necessary. I haven't bought ali the clothes I wanted and I have cancelled several entertainments I had planned. I think the idea of concerted economy is a splendid one.” Mrs. John G.

Mrs. Robert McKittrick Jones of 6 Westmoreland place said cutting down the social activities during the war for the purpose of economy will be a splen- did thing and will have a lasting effect after the war in bringing the lavish spenders to a proper realization of the value of money. Mrs. Lon O. Hocker of 5610 Von Ver- sen avenue declared that economy in all lines should be pratticed now by peo- ple of all classes, to the end of con- serving all of our resources. She point- ed out that she had already launcped her own campaign of economy by buying a simple one-piece woolen dress for which she paid $17.98, which she is wear- ing to all sorts of functions. ‘I am wearing last season’s hats and suits and don't intend to buy any more new clothes this season,’’ she explained. Mrs. Arthur W. Lambert of 6470 For- sythe boulevard declared she heartily indorsed any plan of conservation and would follow the lead of those who launched any feasible plans for econ- omizing during the present crisis. ‘I am not planning any entertainments,”’ she declared, ‘as this is a time, I be- lieve, when our country deserves all of our thought.”’ Mrs. John O'Fallon Delaney of 6105 Lindell boulevard declared she had ‘‘fun- ny notions’’ about plans for economizing,. “If the people of means don’t buy things, what are the poor people to do?’ she asked. ‘I believe in conservatism and no waste, but I think those fortunate enough to possess wealth should spend it at all times.”’ Should Help Sufferers. Mrs. J. L. D. Morrison of the Buck- ingham Hotel declared the people of the country who have money should abstain now from all forms of extravagance. ‘If we have money to spend,” she declared, “‘we should spend it in benefiting the sufferers."’ Mrs. Philip N. Moore of 3125 Lafayette avenue, said the women of the country generally are carrying out the plan of economy suggested by the women of Washington, and have been doing so for several weeks. ‘‘Here in St. Louis,” she said, “I have heard hundreds of women tell of what they have beein do- ing along economical lines because of the war. I have been following the three-course dinner idea ever since the food shortage became serious. The women of St. Louis are probably as eco- nomical as those anywhere.” Mrs. Dwight F. Davis of 16 Portland place approved the plans for practical economy, but declared she favored the German idea in the conservation of foodstuffs, rather than the plan of lim- iting dinners to three courses. ‘‘Food can easily be wasted even if dinners are limited to three courses,"’ she declared. “My idea would be to serve a greater number of courses but to eliminate those foods of which there is a shortage.’’ Mra. G. W. Cale Jr. Economizing. Mrs. George W. Cale Jr. of 12 Lenox place said she has been economizing in practical ways in her home since the break with Germany and that she has planned no entertainments because of the war. Mrs. Seiwyn C. Edgar Jr. of 4500 Ber- line avenue, said she believes every- one feels the same about economizing during the war crisis. She declared she is not entertaining and is economizing generally because of the war. Mrs. Parte N. O'Neil of 6481 Ellen- wood avenue has curtailed her dinners to three courses and has done away with unnecessary expenses of all forms, she said. “This is no time for elaborate functions," she declared, ‘‘and all of us should do all we can toward conserva- tion.”’ Mrs. Herbert L. Parker of 3 Wash- vere terrace, declared she has ab- stained from giving any entertainments j stead of complete renewals, until con- back-yard gardens. Intelligent economy will be a new thing to a great many in this country and it is those persons more than any others who need the lessons.”’ Mrs. Kennett F. Burns of 5151 Wash- ington boulevard said she had already planned a campaign of economy. Mrs. Festus J. Wade Has Garden. Mrs. Festus J. Wade of 4451 Lindell boulevard declared she has adopted the suggestions for conservation, even to planting a garden in her back yard. he idea of the Washington women is a splendid one,’’ she said. ‘‘We should give our entertainments for charity and not for social pleasure and we should do everything possible to conserve our resources.’”’ Mrs. W. K. Bixby approved the idea of conservation by cutting down the ex- penses of the home, declaring much could be saved to the whole countfy in that way and that it is a good plan for the aid of the poor. FRISCO EMPLOYES URGED TO ECONOMIZE ON ALL MATERIAL President Biddle, in Circular Letter, Points Out Abnormal Increase in Cost of All Supplies. W. B. Biddle, president of the Frisco Railroad, is distributing to all employes a circular letter in which he points out in detail the abnormal increases in cost of material and supplies, and urges them to aseist the road in keeping these expenses down to the minimum by econ- omizing in material wherever possible. Since the war began, prices on ma- terials and supplies, excluding fuel, rails and ties, have advanced 104.2 per cent. Prices are still advancing. Mis- cellaneous material for the year 1915 cost the Frisco $3,314,753. If the same materia 4s were purchased now, Biddle says, tuey would cost $6,768,725.63. Emphasis ts laid by Biddle on the need of making repairs at present, in- ditions are again normal. This order, however, does not apply to repairg or renewals deemed necessary for public safety. FARMERS AND MERCHANTS’ BANK AT HERMANN CLOSED Inatitution Taken in Charge by State Examiner — Has Deposits of $160,000; Loans $180,000. The Farmers’ and Merchants’ Bank of Herman, Mo., on the Missouri River, 80 miles west vf St. Louis, was closed last evening at the end of the day's business, by State Bank Ex- aminer McGruder. Theodore Graf is president of the bank, and August Bergman Jr., cashier. The bank’s capital is $30,000, and its surplus and undivided profits $8000. The deposits are approximate- ly $160,000, and loans $180,000. Bank Commissioner Enright said jeday to a Post-Dispatch correspon- dent at Jefferson City that he would go at once to Hermann to investigate the bank’s affairs. Until making such an inquiry, he said, he had no an- nouncement to make as the reason for the closing of the bank. 1916 OLIVE CROP IN ITALY FLORENCE, april %.—According to advance information, the estimated yield of olives for all Italy for 1916 is 1,150,047 short tons, as compared with 1,125,411 in 1915, and a seven-year aver- age of 1,163,712 tons. It is estimated that the yield of olive ofl will amount to 46,010,237 gallons, as compared with 39;969,600 in 1915, and a seven-year average Of 46,632,960 gallons NOTED AIRMAN REPORTED KILLED Lieut.

Baldamus had «a record of 18 enemy airplanes destroyed. ers who opposed the strike made it evi- dent to the authorities that a further curtailment of rations from any cause could not be borne. Labor representatives interviewed Lord Mayor Wermuth and the Prus- sian Food Commiasioner, Michaelis, yes- terday. They were given an assurance in regard to food which it is hoped will induce the workmen to abandon the strike. The Vorwaerts alone of the big Ber- lin papers ventured this morning to cOmment editorially on the strike. It said that the demonstration was based not only on the food situation and the demand that internal reforms be no longer delayed, but also on the deep longing of the people for peace. While claiming that the peace senti- ment has a decisive role in the move- ment, Vorwaerts argues that the strike cannot be regarded as _ anti-Govern- mental, since the Ausirian and German declarations justify the hope that the policy of the central Powers is now on a path which will soon lead to peace. Fears for Strike’s Effects, The paper laments the fact that the demonstration will have exactly the opposite effect probably from that de- sired, by encouraging Germany’s op- ponents to continue the war and di- minishing the output of munitions. Ir also regrets that among other excesses a crowd gathered in front of the vacant British embassy yelling and cat-calling. No reports of a strike movement in labor centers outside Berlin have bee.i received as yet. A Kiel dispatch says that the Radical anti-war party got control of the greater Kiel Socialist As- sembly and passed resolutions against voting wer credits. Another sidelight comes from Munich, where a woman teacher was put on trial for “‘pacificis: intrigve.”” She was acquitted on the ground that’ she was demented from over-strain. German Papers Reveal Strain of Food Shortage on People. THE HAGUE, April 15.—How urgent is the yearning for peace among the German people, and how great is the in- creased strain. just imposed on them in consequence of the reduction in the bread ration, may be judged from the exhortations and the pictures of woefu! alternatives published in provincial] newspapers on the inauguration of the curtailment of the bread supply. The Courier of Hanover, for example. represents that a quicker but unsatis- factory peace would not lead to a better food supply. The people are told that Great Britain, France, Italy and even the United States, are reckoning with a world famine for the current year and that, in case of a premature conclusion of peace, the demands of these coun- tries for their own needs would prevent the supplying of Germany with foreign foodstoffs. The Courier portrays the British peo- ple as paying the highest grain prices of a century and declares that the Ger- mans are situated more favorably than those who planned to starve them, not being menaced by a bad world crop and rapidly sinking ship tonnage. If, however, the blockade of Ger- many should succeed through lack of economy, the newspaper says, ‘our people would have not only a time of bitter hunger but a long period of the lowest wages and the most painful en- feeblement. Then, while France, Italy and Russia carried off Alsace-Loraine, Trieste, the Tretino, Constantinople and big Austro-Hungarian provinces as the price of victory. Great Britain will undertake the long planned annexation of our economic riches. Bread would Le dear and wages low for our entire la>or- ing population. We must, thereforé, muster all our strength. clinch our teeth and, remembering the sacrifices and sufferings of our men folk in the field, hold out and take up this new food sacrifice. “ACTOIDS” ACT ACTIYELY. BEST FOR WINTER COLDS. Man Reports tLoas of $45 in Holdup. Charlies Behrens of 3166 Wyoming street, told the police that he was held up last night by two men in the 3006 block on Sidney atreet, and robbed of $45 and a: purse containing a watch | chain and some trinketa, result of the suppression was a severe shock to the belief in the accuracy of the British bulletins. Change Soon Come. Over and over again at the outset of the war things were hidden from the British public, which the Prus- sians knew. That lamentable state of affairs has disappeared. The pres- ent administration has almost purged our departments of their hide-the- truth proclivities, but much mischief had been done. There is profound distrust nowadays even in the glori- ous victories accomplished by Sir Douglas Haig with his splendid democratic army, chosen from all the .free nations of the British empire. For a long time the Government is- sued stereotyped bulletins, which were usually printed under the head- ing, “Allies steady advance.” At the rate at which the allies were advanc- ing, according to these statements, they would long ago have joined hands with their Russian confreres on the Riga line. It is interesting to notice that the very portion of the public which swallowed these lies greedily is now the most difficult to convince that Hindenburg’s steady excuses for his retirement are not in reality a trap for the British and French forces. Let us admit that the censorship is a very difficult thing. Let us agree that by some means or other the Prussians obtained as much news of what you are doing as possible. Some time ago Commandatore Mar- coni told me he would undertake to erect a wireless plant that would de- mand some months’ effort on the part of our Government to locate and that before it had been located he would be able to erect another at some other place in England. Great Britain and Germany are close to each other, and I do not assume it would be possible to erect a secret wire- less that would carry across the Atlan- tic. It should pe remembered, though, that the cable is always open. Quite recently 1 transmitted a sum of money from London to one of my agents in Berlin, by a route known ohly to my- self, through the Garman Foreign Office itself. Needs a Trained Man. The cable censorship between the United States and Europe will need, I think, to be intensified, excepting be- tween well-known business firms and similar organizations. As for the Ameri- can newspapers, daily and weekly, and even the monthly magazines, | am con- vinced that if the American navy and military authorities lay down strict rules as to what should or should not be pub- lished in the way of news, special arti- cles and pictures, they will have no trou- ble. Some of the numerous polyglot publi- cations may need strict watching. Here and there a careless publisher may be found. If the British censorship had been placed in the hands of British editors at the outset it would have been more efficient. Over and over ogain we have been obliged to censor the censor. News of real importance passed his staff. nor is it to be wondered at A real censor- ship can only be exercised by newspaper men trained in publicity, under the guid- ance of war experts. The “omnium gatherum"” that formed the army censors at the outbreak of the war had no knowledge either of mil- itary matter or of the press. A com- mittee formed of the chief news distrib- uting agency would have been of great assistance to our Government in 1914, but the politicians never sought their aid, just as they neglected the advice of great railroad men, steamship owners and controllers of other undertakings. With our example before you, and with the American belief in the business man, it is unlikely that you will delay success by tactics of that kind. What our military authorities did not under- stand at the outbreak of the war is the fact that when democracy goes to war it does so under the influence of enthusi- asm rather than military and Govern- ment domination.

Secrecy is the mother of all kinds of evils in these times, the chief being the rumors which deflect the public mind from earn- est concentration on the war. At the beginning, owing to our secrecy, preposterous rumors were spread that a large army of Russians had landed in England on their way to the front, and that, in fact, further recruiting on our part was quite unnecessary. The people looked at the large map of Russia, with a population almost double that of the United States, and sat contentedly at their heavy meals. They did not know that the unfortunate Russian at that time was armed chiefly with sticks. No steps were taken by the Govern- ment for some time to kill the rumor, which planted @self so deeply in the public mind that’ for months there were people who went about saying they knew somebody who had heard from some- body who had actually seen men passing through London in huge numbers. That incident may appear to have been merely amusing, but it had its ser- ious side in its effect on the limitation of recruiting and the output of the muni- tion factories. At the present time we in Europe know nothing whatever about the Am- erican army or navy. It is about time we did know. Little by little we have begun to tell you something about our- selves. The hundred million American people are now actually represented at the British front by two whole corres- pondents, each of them representing more than one mililion British soldiers. That is a beginning, if humble. I claim today that our army, by rea- son of the fact that its equipment is en- tirely new and as a result of experience bought in the dearest market, that of death, should be better known on your side; that Generals Haig, Byng, Allenby, Rawlinson, Horne, Gough, with Maude, who leads the troops in Mesopotamia, and Murray in the Holy Land, and Munro, who holds the Indias command—all of them picked soldiers, who have arisen out of the war—should be known to the American people. You are assuming what is practically a partnership with the allies, and not a silent one either. The better the part- ners understand one another the les¢ chance there is of friction. I am all out for publicity, organized under naval and military direction by trained newspaper brains. I believe that the more the American people know about the causes and horrors of in a munitions — accom- AnaTt2 0 uve acu ¥ which Prussia in its retirement is defil- ing and smashing every tiny French settiement, the more eager they will be to see every detail of their equipment efficient and none of their man power wasted in the foolish butterfly chasing of unnecessary external expeditions, as was the case with Great Britain in 1914. | Copyright by Tribune Association. = aati ‘Trust Hindenburg,” though [| gather from conversations with neutral busi- war and the astounding barbarism by | titude of some dry states toward ‘the liquor business.

ST.LOUIS POST-DISPATCH i BILLION BILL BY UNANIMOUS VOTE Summins and Borah Oppose $3,000,000,000 Aid for Allies in 7-Hour Debate. MINOR AMENDMENTS Qne Authorizes Exchange by Bond Subscribers for Later Issues at Higher Rates. ——— WASHINGTON, April 18.~—The $7,900,- 000,000 war revenue bill was passed unanimously by the Senate last night, after seven hours’ debate. Eighty-four Senators were present and voted aye. The measure, which provides for a 3%,- 300,000,000 loan to the allies, was approved with a few changes, in the form in which it passed the House last Satur- day. Amendments Adopted. Amendments adopted by the Senate in- clude provisions: Limiting deposits of proceeds from the bonds in banks to the amount sub- scribed by the banks and their depos- itors; permitting deposits of proceeds in state banks and trust companies as well as Federal reserve banks; providing for exchange by subscribers of the issues autnorized for bonds subsequently is- sued during the war at higher interest rates; requiring the Secretary of the Treasury to report expenditures of thio bond proceeds Dec. 31 and annually Segre and exempting the $2,000,000,- (00 of Treasury indebtedness certificates authorized from all taxation, except es- tate and inheritance levies. Senators Reed and Stone of Missouri objected to authorizing state banks and trust companies to become depositaries for the bond proceeds, insisting that the Federal reserve banks alone should re- ceive the proceeds, as being the back- bone of the nation’s fiscal system. Oth- ers contended, however, that the finan- cial burden is general and any advan- tage should not be limited to the Fed- eral reserve banks. “Banks which will come forward and subscribe for these bonds,” said Senator Page, ° ‘with the greatest patriotism will be the country banks under state char- ters.’’ Senator Lodge said the door should be openec to every financial institution of good repute. First Partisan Division. The first open partisan division oc- curring came upon another améndment by Senator Weeks to stipulate the exact form in which the bonds shall be is- sued. It was lost by a tie vote, # to 40. Senator Stone, Finance Committee member, refrained from voting and the Vice-President refused to break the tie because, he said, he knew nothing of the technical financial! questions in- volved. The Weeks amendment proposed that, instead of giving, as the bill provides, broad discretionary powers to the Secre- tary of the Treasury to prescribe the form of the bonds, they should be seria) issues, limited to 20 years, in denomina- tions of $60 and multiples. Senator Weeks said this would save tens of millions of dollars. The Senate accepted another amend- mént by Senator Weeks providing that the conversion privilege of subscribers shall be for bonds issued during the war with Germany and not, as the bill proposed, limited to bonds issued bs- fore Dec. 31, 1918. Senator Borah’s View. Senator Borah said that, in his judgment, the country could well have provided for raising more of the money necessary by taxation and less through bonds, particularly because he considered that this was but the first step in the way of incurring in- debtedness. He added that he was opposed to the $3,000,000,000 loan to the allies and would vote against it if he could have the opportunity to vote on it separately. Although indorsing Senator Borah's view of the loan, Senator Cummins said he would, however, vote for the bill. S would vote for any measure," he said, “giving strength .o the United States to carry on this conflict. I was reluctant to declare war, but, now that we have, it ought to be car- ried on to a successful termination as ‘quickly and energetically as possible. INo gacrifice of money or life is too great. “I am willing to give to any of the allies the money they need to carry on our war, for it is our war now. I would give it freely just as I would equip a@n army. But I shrink from the consequénces that will flow from this loan. I do not want the United States to be the bond creditor of any foreign power. I do not want to enter the entangling alliances which possession of these bonds will entail. I fear that in the years to come the fact that the United States has bonds of these countries, all af which will be bankrupt at the war's close, will create embarrassment which men of that time will find difficult to ov er- . come, “We should give our money in a gen- erous and patriotic spirit for the allies to do anything we are not now able to - av” Senator. Hoke Smith insisted that the allies did not want a gift from the * United @tates to maintain their armies fe on their ships. , Alites Giving Lives.

Senator Kenyon of Iowa, also said he hoped the vote would be unanimous. ‘This bill is waking up the American people,” he said. ‘“‘It demonstrates no half-heartedness in this country, no dil- ly-dallying, because our action must be speedy to be of avail. This tremendous sum staggers us, but it will stagger the enemy, too. It will cause the American people to realize the stupndous task we have undertaken.” Referring to the proposed loan to the allies, Senator Kenyon said France would never be asked to repay because ‘“‘we omve more to France than we can ever repay.”’ Senator Sterling of North Dakota de- clared that the United States could not render more effective aid than by money. He advocated a gift of $25,000,- 000 to aid the allies in caring for the ly, S, CRUISER STOPS BRITISH SHIP OFF NANTUCKET LIGHT No Importance Attached to Action Ex- cept That It Indicates Close Watch on Shipping.

Even Roads Destroyed. “All is a desert,” says the ;German atcount, “across which the road is the last vestige of a vanished civilization: and the road itself will. disappear in a few days. All the cross roads are mined and the mine chambers charged. Motor-driven plows are at work in the fields rendering them impassable for the enemy’s artillery and convoys. Troops on the march pass with wagons laden with provisions and utensils. They have left nothing in the positions evac- .uated. What has not been carried away has been burned or smashed. “Soldiers have blown up their shelters and rendered thelr-welHs and former quarters useless. The wells that remain will be destroyed by explosives. Even cellars have been blown up. The work was carried out methodically during weeks and months in order not to arouse the suspicion of the enemy.”’ Sharp says he was told by the wife of the Mayor of Noyon that the most urgent need now confronting the people of that district is implements to enable them to take up the work of recon- struction. They have been deprived of every implement for use in rebuilding or repair work. The position of the all the agricultural implements having been de- stroyed. Atrocities Part of German War Plan, Says French Report. PARIS, April 183—A Government vom- mission which was appointed to investi- gate German atrocities has completed its inquiry. in the evacuated regions north and south and prepared 4 report which appears in the Official Journal today. The commission, headed by Georges Payelle, president of the Su- perior Court, traversed a portion of the regions of the Olse, Aisne and Somme. “Everything in this spectacle of dev- astation discloses a method of such im- is impossible not to see in it the execu- tion of a rigorously prepared plan,” says the commission. “All this was done at the same time and with the same ferocity, in order to bring about misery, inspire terror and create desperation.’’ The report then recounts atrocities committed by the Germans when they entered some of the villages in August, 1914, and which now are made~ public for the first time. At Noyon, it says, one of the residents, M. Devaux, se- lected as a hostage, was shot by a sol- dier as he was about to look for a handkerchief. The same day, Aug. 20. M. Momeux) a janitor, was shot and wounded. Some time afterward Madame del Beca was shot and killed ‘by a sol- dier to whom she had refused to give wine. At the beginning of October, the _ re- port affirms, inhabitants of Verpilliere were arrested on the pretext that they were in communication with the army. They. weré: taken before a courtmartia! at Avricourt and after an inquiry 12 of .j| them were marked on the right cheek with a blue cross. “We have not yet been informed i the fate of these prisoners,”’ says the report. *““‘We only know that M. Poizeau and M. Vasset were brought back to Verpilliere.”’ Sister Romulaa, superror of the Noyon Hospital, was told by an officer that the French people did not want peace and that the Germans had orders to make war on civilians. At Guiscard, says the report, a Ger- man subofficer declared: ‘‘Germany's peace) offer having been repulsed, the war now enters another phase. Here- after we shall respect nothing.”’ “Among persons compelled to leave their homes,’’ the report continues. .. “were paralytics and persons who were on their deathbeds. Mme: Deprez, own- er of the Gibercourt chateau, who was suffering from heart disease, was forced to leave her bed and died 12 days after- ward. Another woman who was ill was 'f notified that her husband would be tak- én as a hostage. She herself was brought to Noyon, On the way, in a fit of des- peration, she threw herself and her child under the wheels of a passing automo- bile. At Sempigny the Germans de- stroyed everything they could not carry away. It was as if a horde of insane persons had passed that way."’ Specific details are gtven in the re- port regarding the pillage of cemeteries.

The report tells how German soldiers seized food and other things, promising to pay, but asserts the promises were not kept.

URGES ACTION ON BILL Says Farmers Should Rally Around Implements Just as Around Field Gun. WASHINGTON, April 18.—Creation of a traveling corps of farm labor to work on irrigated lands of the country is the novel proposal of Secretary Lane to further the nation-wide campaign to increase food production during the war. The plan was outlined today in a communication te Chairman Taylor of the House Irrigation Committee, in which the Secretary urges prompt ac- tion on the pending bill designed to stim- ulate food production on private and public lands within irrigation projects. This fegislation, he says, is a necessary prerequisite to his plan. “We have, as you doubtless know,” Secretary Lane wrote, ‘a little more than 700,000 acres of land within our reclamation projects upon which water may be placed this season. The pro- posed bill is one by which all of the private and public lands upon the rec- lamation projects can be utilized. Wholesale Operations. ‘T hope this can be doné in a whole- sale way by the creation of an equipped and mobile organization of farm labor. In every one of ®ur projects—as in every county in the United States—there are considerable bodies of idle arable land. Some of these tracts are lying idle be- cause of lack of farm implements and capital. “Our hope is that all of these acres may be impressed immediately into pub- lic service, that on each project there be organized at once a war maintenance corps, the business of which it will be to see that idle acres are put to use and that all farm labor acts so far as prac- ticable as a unit. “Hach ,company in this maintenance corpse should have as many gang plows and harrows and seeders as can be bought or borrowed. Around these im- plements the farmers should be organ- ized just as they are organized around a field gun, and each of these com- panies should move from field to field until the land allotted to it in the pro- ject has been ploughed and planted. In this way, with adequate machinery and the work of 20 or more in a day. How ers Can Aid. “The farmers who have been doing their own plowing and planting upon thelr own farms can, by acting with such a corps, not only have their own lands cultivated but can bring under cultivation the lands of their neigh- dors. “If the farmers are organized in this way, with proper machinery at their disposition, I can see no need of a shortage in farm labor. The well-to-do ) farmer who has a tractor should see aa : B. that that tractor is turned into a com- munity machine. By proper organization farm work can be done just as ayste- matically as the work of road building or trench fighting. “We should have at our disposal! enough money to pay wages and buy seed. The mass of the farmers in the corps could be repaid for their work by having their own farms cultivated. The men could be moved with their ma- chines from farm to farm in camps, after the Western fashion in harvesting time, or they could be brought to and taken from their work when at long distances by automobiles. inugew ar tonen Be Rs ving the cree ll com- pete with each other for their farm la- «bor and for seed, by this means each Vereen can be organized into a co- “operative commonwealth for the purpose of producing the greatest possible 4 ‘amount of food with which to support . ~our own people and help those who are our allies. Such an organization should be maintained throughout the season. - Harvesting should be done in the same e ’ way. “The. firet step after organization should be the securing of the right to use all such private land as is unused. Compensation for this should be paid on the basis of a percentage of the yield, whatever the standard for such return in the neighborhood may be. Each man might bear upon his arm some evidence of the public work that he is engaged in, perhaps a ribbon on which was printed ‘U. 8. Maintenance Corps.’ “Your bill represents the beginning a te os o> ‘StLous Be eg BLOCK: NEW PRESDENT | OF REALTY EXCHANGE Defeats Henry R.

OXFORD, England, April 18.—Observ- ing that “the war has continued through- out the academic year to interfere with the normal operation of the scholarship system,”’ a statement of the . Rhodes Trust just issued says that leaves of absence have been granted for periods of three months, six months or a year to 18 American Rhodes scholars “who wished to take part in the work of the Red Cross Society and Young Men’s Chris- tian Association.’’ A number took simi- lar work for a month or sfx weeks in the vacations. Seventy-six Americans and 18 colonials have been at Oxford for the whole or a part of the past year. The trust announces its intention of distributing the recently canceled Ger- man scholarships ‘‘among communities within the British empire not provided for under Mr. Rhodes’ will. GOVERNMENT FURS BRING $75,000 HERE Buyers at Big Sale Adopt Reso- lution Upholding United States in War. The fur buyers who assembied in the salesrooms of Funsten Bros. & Co. to bid for the 3,000,000 skins to be sold during. the next few days, passed a resolution upholding President Wilson’s stand on the war and pledged them- selves to support the Government in conducting it. The furs to be offered are valued at $4,000,000. The collection is said to be the greatest ever brought together at any place, far eclipsing the offerings of any London sale. The Japanese Government which, heretofore, always sent its seal skins to London to be sold, this year sent 1520 skins to St. Louis. Ths first lot offered for sale was 1500 Alaskan seal skins owned by the United States Government. ‘These skins were dressed; dried and machined in St. Louis and were ready to be manufactured into garments.

Author of ‘‘Japanese Expansion and American. Policies.’ Be PaBIDAS next Japan faces, an election that promises to be more momentous for her than anything that has happened since the establishment of con- stitutional government 30 years ago. Last December the Imperial Parliament was dissolyed at the instance of the Premier, after having been in session less than’ 24 hours from its or- ganization, The election Friday is for the: purpose of choosing a new Diet. The result, however, may be either to move Japan along another step toward the achievement of democracy, or ultimately, perhaps, to throw her back into the turmoil of a second French Revolution. most prefound significance for America. To understand the importance of their election it is necessary to recal] some of the recent events in Japanese home politics. To begin with, although Japan is a monarchy with constitutional gov- ernment, there are certain vital distinc- tions between its operation and that of @ country like England, In the first place, the Premier and his Cabinet re- ceive their appointmeat and hold office solely by the authority of the Emperor. In England a vote of latk of confidence in the Government on the part of the lower house brings about the downfall of the Cabinet. The latter are, in other words, the representatives, of the peo- | ple. ) In Japan they are the representatives The underlying motive in the shifting political struggle in Japan for years has been largely to do away with the former condition and tq bring about the latter. And this strug- gle is approaching a climax. In the second place, outside of all legal sanction, with no official status, there is the slowly diminishing group of the “‘“Gen-Ro”’ or “Elder Statesmen.” These are the personal advisers of the Emperor, holding no office as such, but nevertheless all-powerful in the coun- cile of the nation. They correspond in a way with Roosevelt's “Tennis Cab- inet’’ or with Col. House in the present administration. In the early days of the late Emperor's reign, when the country was but just opened to outside contact, such a group of advisers was As the decades have passed, their number has dimin- isher (there are but three left at pres- ent) and powerful! politicians have aris- en outside the charmed circle who have challenged its authority. The chief of these is the veteran Marquis Okuma, who was Premier until last October. Cause of Okuma’s Downfall. Okuma is a man of great sagacity and broad views, but as Premier he was un- able to withstand the pressure of the jifigoes and yielded to a foolishly irri- tating policy in China, which included the notorious ‘21 demands” of 1915. As @ result of this, an active anti-Japanese boycott has been in operation in China, and the more sensible Japanese (of “sid in ‘®pposition. Now Okuma himself—is a believer jn party government and in a representa- tive cabinet. When he felt that the peo- ple were not with him he voluntarily tendered his resignation to ithe Emperor, although there was no compulsion teid_| upon him to do so. This occurred last October. There were but two men in Japan of sufficient caliber and prominenée to be named as Okuma's successor: One was the foreign minister, Viscount Katc. and the other was Count Terauchi, Gov. ernor-General of Korea. Okuma is the most distinguished Japanese living, and the Emperor and the nation are under deep obligations to him for devoted and faithful ser- ,, Yiee. He felt that his long devotion to "his Emperor laid the latter under some Obligation to respect his wishes, and in tendering his resignation he adopted the bold and unprecedented policy of recommending as his successor, Vis- count Kato. Okuma's resignation was accepted but the influence of the ‘‘Gen-Ro”’ was too powerful, and instead of accepting the former's recommendation, the throne appointed Terauchi Premier, to the un- concealed wrath of the Japanese press and the equally unconcealed anxiety of those Americans who follow Orienta! events and who anticipate the inaugura- tion of a ‘“‘strong’’ policy in China under the leadership of the new Japanese “‘war-lord.”” Terauchi is @ soldier and a bureaucrat, very narrow and un- compromising, bitterly opposed .to the freedom of the press, an extreme nat- lonalist and the idol of the jingoes. Policy Has Been Moderate. This anxiety in America, so far, has not been justified by the event. Count Terauchi has been very moderate in. his policy. Immediately after his ap-| pointment, however, a new political party was launched, the Kensei-kai or | Constitutionalist’” Party, with Vis« eount Kato at its head. Its origin was the result of a popular reaction, some- . thing after the manner of the formation jot our own Progressive Party of recent history, and the inténse animosity of press and people toward bureaucracy, impersonated in Terauchi, began to gain qreanization and strength. There have been numerous other oc- casions when popular sentiment and the majority of the Diet have been opposed to the Premier. Usually a compromise has been effected, either by directly and crudely bribing the opposition leaders, or by taking them into the Cabinet. Terauchi, however, adopted a different’ tack. He formally asherted that the ‘Executive is independent of Parliament, thereby denying the Woal toward which the people of Japan have been ‘working |}. for years. It is the uncompromisin stand of the bureauerat, defying public opinion and the evolution of democracy. _ Termuchi's cabinet is a strong one. It's _ personnel commands respect, but public _ opinion was focussed on the one point mentioned—the defiance of recognized representative government. — When the, : convened last J the opposition waa led by Wisdanah arate ; and @ vote of lack of confidence in the administration was proposed for the firet _ day. Terauchi, however, forestalied this _ move by 1 teresa ® disrolution of the | Diet, which therefore was in session for Either way, the result will have just one day after its organization. It was to elect a new Diet that the recent elections were called. Storm of: Protest Aroused. This violent assertion of authority and defiance of majority rule has roused a storm of protest in Japan and fer the past three months the political cauldron has ‘been kept boiling. Terauchi last month called together all the provincial governors (who are not elected by the people but are appointed by the Home Office at Tokio), to give them ‘‘instruc- tions’’ regarding the coming election. The poor governors have been between the devil of the administration and the ,deep blue sea of popular wrath in their own districts. The telegraphic accounts do not give many details, but we know that money has been spent lavishly for some time past and every device of modern Occi- dental politics, to say nothing of sev- eral details peculiar to the Orient, have been in use. Only a few days ago ‘April 9) a distin- guished Japanese publicist named Tag- awa was convicted and sentenced to five months’ imprisonment for publish- ing an article reflecting on the ‘‘Gen- Ro” for opposing the appointment of Kato as Premier. The Judgés appeared to have ruled that as the “Gen-Ro” are the confidants of the Emperor, such criticism was lese majestat. Tagawa was a member of the Diet and Un- der Secretary of State. There are two aspects of the present political situation in Japan that are, or should be, of intense interest to us in America. In the first place, in spite of the recognition of divided councils at home, we seem to take it for granted that the millions of people in Japan are a unit in demanding aggressive meas- ures toward China and the United States: whereas, in point of fact, the coming election reveals the most de- termined opposition on the part of the majority of intelligent Japanese toward the clique that is committed to the adoption of just such a Prussian pol- icy. In the second place, throughout the Northern Hemisphere the issue is now joined between autocracy and represen- tative government. Struggle 30 Years Old. For 30° years there has been on in Japan an intense struggle for popular. government—a astruggie in which the overwhelming odds have been ing torial expansion thousands of miles a ree from Petrograd. If the presgnt election brings about the downfall of the Terauchi party in Japan it will be but the symptom of further extension of democracy and as such should have the sympathy of all cpen minded Americans. If not, the issue is only deferred, for the assassin of Sarajevo let loose forces that will no longer be controlled and that will+ continue to work for many come. years to Your Special Ruled Report Blanks. produced by our new process, saves half your former cost Phone for quotation-- whether you need or 2300 copies. re race List & Letter Co., 10th and ilve Vegetables to Replace Cotton.

Dr. Clithero’s face was cut by glass from his windshield. Mrs. Matilda Ziegler of 2104 South Broadway lost control of her automo- bile at Jefferson avenue and Chestnut street at 5 p. m. and it crashed into ismiul Harris’ drug store, breaking two fPategiass windows. Mrs. Ziegler’s face was cut. An automobile driven by Eli Leven- thal of 3223A Cass avenue knocked down Lee Maher, 8 years old, of 19% Bacon street at 6 p. m. in front of 1819 North Grand avenue. The boy’s face was cut and bruised. on the side of the ruling autocracy. The eommon- people, exploited by.the Gov- ernment, have found the burden harder and harder to bear as the nation has involved itself more and more in the expensive and complicated affairs of world politics. A growing restlessness has developed, although rigidly sup- pressed, that has become much intensi- fied of late, until the country is ripe for revolt. The recent successful revolution in Russia, hailed with joy in America and England, must have been received with consternation and dismay by the Japan- ese autocracy. Their plans had but just come to a’ guccessful conclusion after long years of preparation and dip- lomatic finesse. The Japanese auto- cracy and the Russian autocracy, by virtue of the recently concluded entente, were in a position to dominate East Asia, and were prepared to do SO. But there can be no question now that if the present regime survives in Rus- sia it will not lend itself to Japanese ambitions in China and Mongolia, for it was precisely the party now in power in Russia that blocked the success of the Russian armies in the Japanese | war of 1964.

In that year, however, lapoleon destroyed the halo when he subjugated and mediatized most of the smaller German states and formed them into the confederation of the Rhine. What- ever of evil Napoleon did to Europe, he taught it to think in terms of politi- cal liberty. When the Congress of Vienna met in 1815, after Napoleon's final defeat, to rearrange the map of Europe, the Con- federation of the Rhine was the pattern upon which the German Confederation was established, absorbing the former. The people of the German states, hav ing imbibed political liberalism from the French, demanded a constitution. They did not get it, but the Congress, by Article XIII of the treaty, did de- clare ‘that: “A constittuion based upon the sys- tem of estates will be established in all the states of the union.’’ It further provided for a government of the Confederation through a Diet. meeting at Frankfort, in which, how- ever, the delegates represented the sov- ereigns of the members rather than the people. There were about 40 political entities in the Confederation at this time, including free cities, electorates, margravates, duchies, grand duchies and kingdoms, with Prussia beginning to challenge Austria for the leadership. The last two were absolute in form: in the others the people participated in the government in various dexrees. Many of the German states estab- lished constitutions in accordance with the pledge of the Congress of Vienna, but Prussia and Austria did not. Fred- d erick Willfam III of Prussia appointed a commission to consider the matter, but it reported adversely and the sub- ject was dropped. Democratic Tendencies. The Holy Alliance of Prussia, Russia and Austria, during the first years fol- lowing the Congress of Vienna, concert- ed in vigorous fashion to suppress all democratic tendencies within their ter- sitories, exalting at the same time the doctrine of absolutism. The suppression of such tendencies in Prussia in !819 was especially severe.

No secret societies were allowed among the studer.ts and no student ex- relled could enter any other institution in Germany. % Everywhere there was persecution of Liberals. Jahn, the founder of gymnas- tic societies—to whom there is a monu- ment in Forest Park—was bitterly per- secuted. Arndt. was removed from his professorship at Bonn. It was forbidden to circulate Fichte’s address to the Ger- man nation. Revolutionary Contagion. The French Revolution of 1848, which deposed Louis Philippe, spread its con- tugion to Germany, now heartily sick of tyranny; in fact, it lit the torch of revo- lution from the Baltic to the Mediter- rariean and from Spain to the Russian frontier. Frederick William IV had suc- ceeded his fathér in 1840. He had re- leased Jahn, pardoned Arndt and other- wise exhibited a less reactionary dispo- sition. In February, 1847, he issued a letter patent announcing that whenever new taxes were needed he would sum- mon a general assembly. While this marks the beginning of constitutional history in Prussia, the letter patent did not grant a Constitution. In a speech from the throne to the first Assembly, in April, 1848, replying to the revolutionary demands for a Constitution, the King made it plain that he would not grant it. *‘Never will I allow a sheet of written paper to come, like a second Providence, between our Lord God in Heaven and this land, to govern us by its para- graphs,’ he said. “The crown can not and ought not to depend upon the will of majorities. I should never have called you together if I had the least idea that you could dream of playing the part of so-called representatives of the people.’’ Instances of violence became general but there was no adequate organization and it was put down with the greatest severity. Nevertheless, the King deemed it prudent to promise a Constitution and a parliament, with universal suffrage, and the Constitution was issued in its final form in 1850. It conceded no power to the people and the electoral system was likewise devised to disturb the royal power as little as possible. There has been practically no change in either since that time. The persecution of men of independ- ent thought at this period iwaugurated the large German emigration to the United States, giving to us among other noted exiles Francis Lieber, who, under Lincoin, formulated for the first time a written code of laws of land warfare. which hus served as a model through- out the civilized world. Ift 1857 Frederick William IV became insane and William I, his brother, suc. ceeGed as regent. The former died in 1561. William I is the author of univer- sal military service. Although Prussia adopted such a law in 1814, it was not enforced until William came to the throne, through the army reform meas- ures of 1860. In 1862 Otto von Bismarck became his principal Minister, and it was’ he, rather than the King, who made Prussia what it is, through his policies of “blood and iron.” Bismarck’s three successful wars within seven years —against Denmark in 1864, Austria in 1866 and Fri nce in 1870—made of Wi: liam I of Prussia, Emperor of Ger- many, at a time when the Prussian King was contemplating abdication on account: of the determined demand of the people for a voice in the Govern- ment. Austria was ejected bodily from the confederation, making Prussia su- preme. While this is referred to as a war of German unification, it was really a war of German division, undertaken to gratify Prussia’s ambitions. German Confederation. With the exclusion of Austria, the North German Confederation war formed, with 22 states. Bismarck drew up the Constitution, using that of 1859 as his model. When France was defeat- ed in 1871, the South German states were forced into the confederation, and con- senhted to the change of form to an empire. The Constitution of 1866 was promptly readopted with the word ‘‘em- pire’ replacing ‘‘confederation’’ and the addition of an article making the King of Prussfa ipso facto Emperor. The ruthlessness of Bismarck was no more successful than that of_his prede- cessors in stamping out liberalism. In fact, on two occasions in 1878 attempts were made to assassinate the Emperor. In 1888 William I died, and was succeed- ed by his son, Frederick III, who died the same year. Frederick's son, Wil- liam II, the present Emperor, then as- cended the throne. Like his grandfa- ther, William II early asserted his ‘‘in- dependence of peoples and parliaments,”’ declaring that he is answerable to God alone. Nevertheless, there has been a tremendous growth of liberalism in Ger- many since 1888. That there have been no concessions made to it renders it all the more dangerous.

FARM ~ ORGANIZATIONS Only Need for Food Conserva- tion Here Is Co-operation of Business Interests. Carl Vrooman, Assistant | Secretary of Agriculture, in an address this forenoor: to members of the Chamber of Com- merce Committee on Conservation ani Production of Food Products, said that > the work of conservation and produc- tion was as well organized in Missouri as in any other State of the country. This was due, he said, to the co-ordi- nation that has been accomplished through the agricultural bodies and schools and the fact that the agricuitur- ists are working in harmony with the Government. In other states, he said, the peo- ple were on tiptoe of enthusiasm but the efforts had not been co-ordinat- ed as they had in Missouri. All Missouri needed, he said, was motive power behind the organization. This could be obtained, he thought, by co- operation of planters and representa- tives of commercial organizations in spreading the propaganda. Urges More Speed. What Missouri needed, he said, was to speed up and keep speeding up 2% hours a day. One of the first things to be con- sidered was the psychology of the farm- er and approach him in the right way.

The order of suspension came in the form of a telegram from William H. Osborn, Commissioner of Internal Rev- enue at Washington, to C. E. Boulden, Special Revenue Agent at San Fran- cisco. John W.

Simple Laxative Remedy Is a Household Necessity Dr.Caldwell’s SyrupPepsin Should Have a Place in Every Home. Constipation, or inaction of the bowels, a condition that nearly everyone experiences with more or less frequency, is the direct cause of much disease. When the bowels become cloggec with refuse from the stomach, foul gases and poisons are generated, and unless the con- gestion is quickly relieved the sys- tem becomes weakened and most sus- ceptible to attack. Various remedies to relieve consti- pation are prescribed but many of these contain cathartic or purgative agents that are harsh and violent in their action and shock the system. The most effective remedy is the combination of simple laxative herbs with pepsin that is sold in drug stores under the name of Dr. Cald- well’s Syrup Pepsin. The Hon. John D. Keister of Brandywine, W. Va., who has repre- sented his district in the State Leg- islature for six years, writes that he uses Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin and finds it a splendid laxative; easy to take and mild, yet positive in its action, and that it should be in every household for use when needed. Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin is sold by druggists in all parts of the United States and. costs only fifty cents a bottle. It contains no opiate or narcotic drug, does not gripe, and is recommended as a family: laxa- tive, mild enougn for the tiniest babe, yet sufficiently powerful to act easily on the strungest constitution. To avoid imitations and ineffective substitutes be sure to get Dr. Cald- well’s Syrup Pepsin. See that a facsimile of Dr. Caldwell’s signature and his portrait appear on the yellow carton in which the bottle is packed. A trial bottle, free of charge, can be obtained by writing to Dr. W B. Caldwell, 455 Washington St., Mon- ticello, Illinois. —— ee a . wae y/ j SIXTH AND ST. CHARLES 4 While They Last—Extraordinary Clean Up of eee ee oe oo === oo SOO oe n———nn oF for week’s business.

MORE THAN 100 MEN LOST Blast, Probably From Overheated Animunition, Said to Have Blown Vessel in Two - Near Trinidad. a Correspondence of the Associated Press. SAN JUAN, Porto Rico, April IL— What is believed to be authentic infor- mation as to the fate of the German cruiser Karlsruhe, which was active in the waters of the Caribbean and off the coast of Brazil during the first months of the war, was given this week by Capt. Heinrich Lubinus, former prizs the German prize KD-111 into this port in January, 1915. The KD-111 was for- merly the British freighter Farne and was captured Oct. 5, 1914. The Karlsruhe was sunk following an internal explosion, Nov. 4, 1914, not far from the Island o&€ Trinidad, according to Caut. Lubinus, who said he had only recently received this information direct from Germany from one of the surviv- ing officers. This statement gives con- firmation to reports from Trinidad about that mie saying a life preserver and portions of wreckage believed to have come from the Karlsruhe had — picked up. More Than 100 Men Lost. According to Capt. Lubinus, Capt. Kohler, commander of the Karlsruhe, several of the officers and more than 100 men lost their lives. “The Karlsruhe was not built for tropi- eal survice,” said Capt. Lubinus. “‘She was designed for home waters. Her ammunition rooms were very hot and it is believed that an explosion in one of these rooms caused the ship to sink. “According to my letter, the ex- plosion blew the cruiser in two al- most midship, the forward portion, where Capt. Kohler and more than 100 men were at the time, sinking im- mediately and without permitting anyone to escape. The after portion was 24 minutes afloat and many of those in this section of the ship saved their lives. Most of the survivors were picked up by another German ship, the Rio Negro, which made its way through the British blockade back to Hamburg. Waited Two Mon “On October 31 the waserain left us. We were to remain in a certain position off the Brazilian Coast, out of the usual coal. line of sixty miles for week after week, and in all our watiing we saw only one vessel, a British man of war. We hoist- ed a British flag and the ship went on, apparently not noticing us.”’ After waiting, for almost two months for the Karlsurhe to return to her, Capt. Lwubinus started for Northern waters. He was almost out of supplies and water. Sailing mostly at night and keeping out of the way of ships in the South Ameri- can trade-he finally made his way to this port, arriving Jan. 12, 1915. Number of Ships Sunk Unknown. The Karisruhe was-at Havana at the outbreak of the war. Prior to that she had been on duty in Mexican waters. After taking coal and provisions here, Aug. 9, 1914, little definite is known of the cruiser’s activities. If the state- ment of Capt. Lubinus is correct, the Karlsruhe sunk 17 ships between that date and her capture of the Farne on Oct. 5. How many more she sent to the bot- tom between that time and her own sinking Nov.a4 may not be Known until after the end of the war. Against the statement of Capt. Lu- binus is a story told within the last two weeks by an American ship captain. This captain said he was in Hamburg in January, 1915, and saw the Karlsruhe there at that time, TABLET TELLS OF BARBAROUS MAN’S REDEMPTION BY WOMEN Museum Journal of Pennsylvania U, Publishes Translation of Recently Found Eptie of Gilgamesh. PHILADELPHIA,. April 18.—In_ the University of Pennsylvania Museum Journal, published today, is the trans- lation of a Babylonian tablet which will be of interest to the historical, re- ligious and literary world. It is one of the missing books of the Epic of Gilga- mesh, regarded as one of the oldest and noblest poems in the world. The epic was composed about the time of Abraham, but all known tablets and fragments of tablets containing it date from a much later period. George Smith made the first discoveries more than 40 years ago. The one in the unli- versity museum was probable written between 600 B. C. and 300 B. C., he says. It was translated by Dr. Stephen Lang- don, curator of the Babylonian section of the university museum, and, accord- ing to that scholar, contains important new material bearing on the whole epic, and also supplies missing data and hitherto unrecorded nations. It tells the story of how barbarous man, in the person of Enkidu, is redeemed by the love and devotion of a woman. Gligamesh, a half mythical King, by many identified with Nimrod, ruled so cruelly that the hero asked the gods for relief. The mother goddess made hair, but strong enough to oppose Gil- gamesh, who was two-thirds a god. Eventually Enkidu is changed by love of a woman to a civilized being, loses his hair and becomes a rival of Gilga- mesh, with whom he has a terrific compat. Finally, the men become friends, Gilgamesh forsakes his evil Ways and the two heroes start on ad- ure their tender bowels.—ADV. officer on the Karlsruhe, who brought | seatracks, until she returned to us for We sailed back and forth along a Resolution of Colonial Wars Society Forwarded to Executive.

Never Let Corns Ache Twice Instantly! Few drops stop corn-soreness, then corns and calluses shrivel, loosen and lift out with fingers—No pain! | The world owes thanks to the genius in Cincinnati who discovered freezone, the new ether drug. : Tiny bottles of the magic fluid can now be had at any: drug store for a few cents. You simply apply a few drops of this freezone upon a tender, aching corn or a hardened callus. In- atantly the soreness disappears and shortly you will find the corn or cal- lus so loose and shriveled that you lift it off with the fingers. Not a bit of pain or soreness is felt when apply- ing fréezone or afterwards. It doesn’t even irritate the skin or flesh. For a few cents one can now get rid of every hard corn, soft corn, or corn between the toes, as well as painful calluses on bottom of feet. Everyone who tries freezone becomes an enthu- siast because it really doesn’t hurt or in one particle. Try it and see.

Bélief Outlook Dark Unless Electoral Re- forms Are Granted. Is LONDON, Wednesday, April 18.— According to The London Times this is preachingg the doctrine that Germany’s best hope, of saving the situation is to hastefi’ constitutional reforms. If she did that, he suggests, peace ne- gotiations might begin this year by both sidés abandoning thelr faith in the possibility of a military decision of the war. In the.current number-.of Die Zu- kunft he @eclares and enlarges on ail these subjects and permits himself to make fuh ofthe Kaiser's Baster ra- script. ‘He poirits out that there was no evidence Whatever for thé state- mént-in the rescript that the Kaiser at the very beginning of the war or- pb aered “prelimifiary work” to be doné With a view to the reform. of the Prussian franthise. He shows that the rescript contains absolutely noth- ing thet is new, and he suggests the object of publication was t6 show that the Kaiser and the Chanéellor, King of Prussia and Minister-Presi- dcnt are as Oné, &nd that Béthmann- Hollweg’s wighes do not go beyond thowe of the most orthodox Prussian Ministers, like Herr von Loebell and Baron von Schoerlemet. General Outlook Black. But the most interesting parts of the articles are those in which Har- den indicates that the general out- 160k, unless Germany can be saved by conversion to democracy, is as black as can be. the idea that Germany can profit from thé Russian revolution and says: “The Russian today sees a goal, on reaching which he hopes to be com- penhsated for all his suffering, and he knows that his ideal, which now is breaking tnto leaf, must feturn to ‘darkness if the war brought his only loss. Consequently, wé must réckon with the possibility that he will en- dure the war bravely and patiently.” Harden then says: “Bagdad English: thé advanced troops of the British and the Rus- sians in contact on the frontier of Persia; widg@ areas of the soil of France once mote fin thé possession of the republic; China’s revolt from Germany; the success of the British at Arras; a new community with 100,- 000,000 Americans who desire for themselves neither land nor money nor even repayment of the cost of the war, and who, with their ideal solution at work upon the nerves of all mankind, confident in the hope of Central America and South America —inh these circumstances is it possible for any sober man who does not want ‘to blush before our warriors to say in his madness that the results of these three months have wearited our enemies and set them whimpering for feeble peace?” Piea for Democracy. ‘Harden cdéncludes on what Times Calis note: territory which Buropean States no longer can take away from one an- other and no longer can hold to their own permanent advantage, but upon the acquisition of higher spiritual values. Elevate the conscience of mankiad and light up the German howsé also! Then what the enemy demands too loudly, but what we in ‘@ecret feel to be a necessity, ‘will /oome to pass. The will of the people [will be free and Germany will know for what the dearest children of her bosom are dying and suffering. WHITMAN SAYS T, Ri IS NEEDED Colonel!

Especial interest attached to the pre- sentation of the Ambassador because of German machinations in Mexico and the uncertainty as to the attitude’ of the Carranza Government toward war be- tween the United States and Germany. No references to the situation were made by either the President or his caller, however Trust and Confidence Desirable. In response to the Ambassador’s an- houncement that the constitutional or- der would be restored in his country May 1, and expression of hope that ‘‘the most cordial relations will continue to exist between our people and our Gov- ernments,” the President said: “The close neighborhood of the United States and Mexico makes it most desir- able that there should be between the two countries relations or friendly trust and confidence. It has been my endeayv- or in these years of unrest and strife in Mexico to impress upon the Mexican people that the United States has noné but the best interests of Mexico at heart, and has no wish-more selfish than to see its people placed in the enjoy- ment of the blessings of peace, happi- ness and prosperity by the establish- ment of a constitutional and stable Gov- ernment, capable, among other things, of affording due protection to American citizens and property, and of meeting ali other international requirements. “I take note of your statement that constitutional order will be re-estab- lished in Mexico on May 1. “I Shall wel- come the day that brings me convincing evidence that a constitutional govern- ment has been established in Mexico both willing ‘and able to afford to Amer- ican citizens and their property the same measure of protection and to ap- ply to them the same impartial adminis- tration of justice that is afforded and is applied to nationals, or the: citizens, or the subjects of other foreign coun- tries. The United States asks no more and can, of course, accept no less.’’ Bonillas had dwelt upon his satisfac- tion in being accredited to the American Government and upon his realization of the difficulty and magnitude of his task. Mexicans Realize Ideals. “After the long struggle to institute a democratic government, emanating from their own choice.and representative of their own aspirations,’’ he said, ‘the Mexican people have succeeded in the realization of their highest ideals. By her recent elections, Mexico has in- sured the re-establishment of constitu- tional order, ani on May 1, the officials freely elected by the popular ballot will take the oath of office, and the re- public shall feel the satisfaction of re- turning to its place in the concert of nations: “As a natural consequence, I hope the most cordial relations and sympathy will continue to exist between our peoples and our Governments.. My most ardent desires are that it may be so, and I trust that, in order to accomplish this end a warm reciprocity may be accorded ty the Government so worthily presid- ed over by your excellency. “The first chief of the constitutionalist army, in charge of the executive power of the nation, duly elected President, has instructed me to convey to your excellency his sincerest desire for your personal happiness and for the pros- perity of the people of the United States."

The petition alleged that the association was a combination in restraint of trade and asked that its charter be re- voked. At the time of the filing of the suit the bylaws of the association forbade members from furnishing carriages, hearses or other funeral equipment to non-members. Since then the association has changed its bylaws so as to elimi- nate this restriction. For this reason the Circuit Attorney decided to dis- miss the case.

The driver of the wagon whipped up his horses and fled after the accident and his identity has not been learned. ~~ Liesaigys * War Loan Subscriptions Whenever and in whatever. form our Government of- fers its proposed bond issue, we shall be pleased to handle your subscription without any profit or com- mission on our part. | Our services are at your disposal for this purpose and Sa PAGES 1598. full particulars. will be furnished op request; -as wits es as area ' ) Skeeetiseer The Twent a4 tens c ‘ lookin a wonther ing = + a write or MFG. phone ad i} TTT + eee || pcos fi i TTT htt ne TIT ETy a snenepreliiees: ——— J ~~ is -_a~—"-— * | ' } ' terfat What determines quality in ice cream? There is nothing mysterious about the making of good ice cream. There is no secret formula, no special manufactur ino method. The quality of an ice cream ee almost entirely on.the amount of cream butterfat in it. Both the State and Federal Governments recognized this fact by establishing a Govern ment butterfat standard for ice cream. That smoothness and extra rich flavor of St. Louis Dairy Company’s ice cream are due mainly to its high percentage of cream butterfat—made strictly according to the legal but- standard. Every-gallon of cream that goes into its making 1s ana- lyzed by experts to make sure that every gallon of finished ice cream will be Government Standard Quality.

Then have the patient, or in the case of a child, the mother or some grown person, suck out the wound and spit out the blood But this must not be done by anyone who has cuts or abrasions on the lips. It is claimed by physicians that the venom even of hydrophobia has no effect upon the mucous membrane of the mouth and lips if they are in good condition. Suck the bite well several times, keeping the tight bandage in place while doing this, but if the part get numb or the constriction causes pain the bandage can be looseneu for a moment and then tightened again. After 10 or 15 minutes, according to the size and depth of the wound, take off the bandage and with a clean piece of absorbent cotton or cheesecloth swab out the wound with tincture of fodine, or, if you have any, with bichloride of ‘mer- cury in 1 to 1000 solution. This is made by dissolving a quarter of a dram (15 grains) of the bichloride and half a. tablespoonful of common sal+ in @ quart of: hot water. The solution is very poisonous if taken internally, so keep it in a safe place plainly labeled “Poison.” If neither of these things is at hand use a saturated solution of boracic acid or even salt and water to wash out the wound. } Boy Scout Professorship | eit itecicinictienaientinglomciegh il Fo: the first time in the history of Teachers College, in New York City, the annual expenses will ex- coed $1,000,000, a budget of $1,101,375 hav- ing been adopted for the fiscal year 1917. 18 by the board of trustees held today.

St. Louis girl in the soft du- “Nothing will induce me to pass unnoticed a shop window @vhere there are purple things dis- played. I simply have to stop and gloat over the delicious volorings and glimmerings and shadings. But, of all the tints, I prefer the real ame- thyst—like this coat, for ‘instance. I’ve wanted an amethyst coat for a long time. Every time I've proposed buying it, someone has come in and said: ‘Oh, no, not purple for you!’ Each person declared it too somber or too old or a color which would not wear well. But the last time I needed a coat, I made my decision in ad- vance; I was going to have it in amethyst, no matter what anyone said. I was the one who was going to wear it, and I knew that I would not tire of it.. Fortunately, nébody could say that it was not becoming, because it is. I’m one of those non- descript persons who can wear prac- tically any color. “So, as you see, I bought my ame- thyst coat; I've worn it a great deal, consider that it is wearing well, and every moment that I've had it on it has been. a joy to me. I like to look down at its lovely soft amethyst folds, ‘and the long strips of the ma- terial which I wind sometimes around my neck seem softer and warmer and pleasanter to be just because of their friendly ‘color. Why should we not surround ourselves, in our belongings and our clothes, with the colors which most appeal to us? Why mind what people say? “Then, recently, I've done another thing with purple which my friends insisted would pe a failure,” , contin- ved this enthusiastic young person. “I’ve made myself a purple room. Everywhere you go you will hear it said that purple in rooms is tiring, that it will not do. I entirely disre- garded all this gabble about purple, and, when it lately came time to re- decorate my room, I boldly an- nounced that it was going to be done in purple. And, in spite of all the predictions of failure, all the vehem- ent opposition or polite liftings of disapproving eyebrows among my friends, I consider it a great success. After all, I am the one who should be pleased, too. ‘This is how my room looks. It’s a fairly good-sized room in an apart- ment, having two broad windows in a kind of little bay at one end. The woodwork and the ceiling are done in cream, and the wallpaper which I se- lected is just between the cream and the tan, with a tiny, indistinct self- toned pattern. My carpet rug is of rn) FACE POWDE mien f “ AND VELVETY. beck if not entire'7 amethyst, quite plain, but of the tint of heather when the sun shines upor it. At the windows and covering my big armchair, I have a lovely printed linen, its background of exactly the same tint as the wallpaper, the fig- ures upon it—trees, impossible look- ing conventional flowers and even more improbable birds—done in soft green and amethyst with a touch of brown here and there. The curtains hang straight down at the sides, with a valance across the top; having the valance made it possible to use only one-half width of the material at either side of the window. The linen was very wide, you see. The under- curtains are simply of a plain cream net—quite ordinary. In my armehair, which is covered with the same printed linen, I have a little square pillow of plain amethyst silk. “Being fond of the old-fashioned in furniture, I’ve been collecting a few old pieces which I am using in my room. I have an old secretary, picked up from the truck strewn about a sec- ond-hand furniture shop, which is now repolished so that it has become an ex- cellent old piece. ' “TI have a rather good old bureau, and a little dressing table between the win- dows; there are two old straight-backed rush-bottomed chairs and, over by the four-poster bed, stands a little square table which holds my reading lamp. For the bed I bought one of the old tufted bedsprings, in precisely the right cream- colored linen for my room; the table cover is a miniature square of cream Russian linen embroidered a bit in amethyst. “My pictures are few, three or four old English Nash prints, in delicate col- ors, framed in ratber a wide black frame with touches of gold. There isn’t much in the room, as you can see; I like to have only the necessary pieces of furniture in my room. I dislike things to be cluttered, and I never leave articles about just because they've been given to me and I ought to use them somehow. “These I offer for sale at a church fair, or give away or burn—anything so that I may be rid of them. I’m obliged to admit that the cupboard part of my secretary is even at this moment stuffed full of a miscellaneous collec- tion of these things, which I would not allow to remain where they would spoil the effect of my room. Oh, there’s one more thing which I’ve added lately, —a nice old warming-pan which stands in a corner of the room! And that’s absolutely everything there is in my amethyst room.

The rarest display of a certain collec- tion is from the potteries of the famous old English firm of Copeland, the heirs of the Josiah Spode potteries. This firm is famous for the Cerulean blue and the Sardinian green and for the ivory bodies so close in quality to the famous Wedge- wood ware. You never, however, think of Copeland ware without thinking of the hawthorn, the rambler rose, the primrose. “They are Roses, not just roses,”’ one artist said of them, and he spoke truly. They looked as if picked fresh from some old English garden or roadside bush; one instinctively leans over to catch their fragrance.

In comes the painter to help redecorate the house, his clothes carefully covered with substantial overalls. Her clothes need protection from dust and dirt and paint and things, just as much as do his. So, she asks herself, why not} overalls for housework? How much more comfortably she can climb up on the stepladder to brush down the walis when she is working in her garden, overalis are such things; if she kneels down, planting bulbs, there is no trouble about untangling herself when she wishes to rise hur- riedly, and there are no bunches of skirt to spread themselves out in pud- dles when one is watering the newly set-out plants.

FOOTBALL WILL BE DEAD FOR SEASON BREWER PREDICTS Schedules Already Shot to Pieces by Cancellation of Sport Events Due to War. MISSOURI STILL HOPING Columbia Authorities Have Shown Disposition to Keep Athletics Moving. COLUMBIA, Mo., April 18—No cok lege football next fall, is the predi¢- tion of Chester L. Brewer, diredfof of athletics at the University of Mis- souri. Brewer claims that with the cancellation of all athletic schedules by the larger Wastern universities, the Southern Collegiate Conferencé, and the probapvle cessation of sports in the Missouri Valley Conference, 80 few schools will be able to put teams in the field, that the playing of games would be: impracticable. rvard, ale, rinceton, Dart- mouth, Amherst, Cornell, and many i r closed up the déuthern Confer- Vanderbilt, Tulan¢ and other institutions a a Woa. lids’ canceled all schedules. Sitivan and Wisconsin have can- eeled all athletic contests. Michigan rieditaral College has declared in favor of two-year military éraining, while 40 per cent of the school voted for an officers reserve corps. This would leave 60 per cent of th ju- tilors ahd seniors to furnish the teams. Recent rulings allowing all agricultural students to receive col- lege credits while engaging in farm oe will probably mean the closing of Ames, Funaps Agies, and other heatitutions for rm students. With matters in this state jt may readily be seen that the gridiron sea- son would not flourish this year un- less military preparation should come to a close.

Nellie is not en on mixing muth, anyway.’’» - “Nellie fs just a trifle selfish, I think,” Mrs. Morrow said gently. “I am fond of Nellie, Peter; but she really ties you ‘@own frightfully.”” She was relieved that Peter did not take offense at her speaking plainly, “T am lucky to have won her any- way—with this stuttering speech,” was all the comment he made. Mrs. Morrow sent a kindly invitation to Lydia Jane Pattison via her daugh- ter. On the day of the girl's arrival Peter drove to the station to meet her. The train had pulled in when he drew rein. * This is really good of you Mr. Mor- gow.” said a soft voice at his elbow. @he had recognized the bronze giant from Bertha’s description. “My stiff knee,’ she said depreca- tingly, “makes lots of trouble for other folks. I am not very agile.” “I'm so sorry,” Peter said with quick emotion. ‘I had not observed your lameness.”’ He lifted her bodily into the trap and tucked her comfortably in. Her affliction and the brave way in which she bore it made Peter forgetful of himself. ‘“‘Not nervous about driving hg are you? This animal is a bit frisky ake for want of work.” _| . “I suppose that's the way I'dl be get- ting in the country—for want of work,” laughed Lydia, noticing the slight hesi- tation in his speech and wanting to put him at his ease. ‘“‘No, I am not a bit hervous,” she answered. “I’ve been through so many big dangers and seen @0 much heart-rending agony that a bolting horse and a few brokén bones would seem a mere bagatelle.’’ “One would almost think you had been on the firing line,’’ Peter said, smiling into her serious gray eyes. “Just returned 10 days ago. I volun- teered in one of the relief ships that Went to Beigiufh. I’ve been constantly about the trenches and hospitals until my heaith gave out.
