WASHINGTON, May 2.—Graduation of the first-class at the Annapolis navy academy in June, a year ahead of time, has been ordered by the Navy Depart- ment to provide officers for submarine chasers. It had been intended to gradu- ate the class in September. Capt. Eberle, Commandant, and the entire faculty of the academy, approved the earlier graduation. There are 203 men in the class and all who pass the required examination will be commis- sioned immediately as.ensigns.

Sergt. R. E. Strange, in charge of enlistment at the Fifth Regiment re- cruiting station, 716 Olive street, says this happened: ' A young man applied for enlistment and after being examined and passing a very good eyesight test, was asked to bend and touch his finger tips to the floor. The examining physician was pleased with what appeared to be a fine specimen, until] the young man, in bending over, loosened an artificial eye from the socket, which so far he had been able to conceal. The eye dropped to the floor and was broken into bits. The doctor said the man had apparent- ly memorized the eyesight chart before applying. ‘ to FOR TRIP THROUGH CANADA Members Quit Washington and Will Cross American Border Today.

RECRUITING BREAKS UP DANCE All Available Men on Floor in Kansas City Sign Up. KANSAS CITY, Mo., May 26.—Recruit- ing officers broke up a dance here last night when, at one place, while on a tour of the dancing academies and poo] halis, they signed for service all the available men on the floor. This effi- ciency record was not so high at other points or call, but before the trip was over several youths had promised to ex- change their cue for a rifle. Further “raids’’ of this character will be continued, the officers declared. BAN PUT ON NAVY SLOGAN Department Prohibitsa Reference to Conscription in Posters. The navy recruiting offices in St. Lou- is have received instructions from Washington to discontinue all references to conscription or the draft in their en- listment campaign. Conscription does not apply to the naval forces, but in an effort to gain re- cruits posters have been used with the slogan, “Join the Navy Now and Avoid Conscrigtion.”” The Government holds that no stigma attaches to conscription and the only dishonor lieés in evading registration or subsequent service.

DECIDING FACTOR ica’s Duty to Help Rehabili- tate Devastated Area. WASHINGTON, May 2%.—Major-Gen- eral Pershing, who will lead the first American expeditionary force to Eu- rope, addressed the conference of the Red Cross today when plans were dis- cussed for raising $100,000;000, ein | drain that comes upon the French people reduces their power to fight and we must meet their aeficien- cies,”’ said the General. ‘“‘Therefore, it is our first duty to help them rehabili- tate themselves. We must help them in every way to relieve the drain upon their military resources. “Our people have not begun to realize that we are in this great war. It is very well to write newspaper editorials about it and talk about it on the plat- form, but it has not yet been impressed on the people out Wests I nave just come from Texas, where they say, ‘Oh, well, we haven't lost anybody. None of our vessels have been destroyed and we don’t really feel that we are at war.”’ Must Replace Men Killed. “I put the question to all such men, ‘Do you realize that we must take the places of every man who is killed among the allies? That we must support their widows and orphans? If not, who is going to do it?) So you men here can do no greater work than to start this movement and bring them to the full realization of the very grave seriousness of this war and make them feel that we are in this to win and the probability is that our entering the war is going to be the deciding factor and the burden of the success is going ‘to rest on the United States.’’ Herbert C. Hoover told the conference he estimated the rehabilitation of North- ern France alone would cost about $1. 500,000,000, “I made a rough estimate of the cost to rehabilitate one little parcel of popu- lation and for one year to give them the roughest kind of housing and the cheapest equipment would cost between $7,000,000 and $10,000,000," he said. Orphans of France a Problem. “Then, too, the orphans of France in- crease day by day. That service is one which probably touches more closely to us here than anything else. On the children of France rests absolutely the hope of France, for France is sacrificing her men on a pyre devoted to liberty and a pyre devoted to our protection. On these three problems the American people have an outlet for all their gener- osity and capacity of organization. “The problem of Belgium is much the Same as that of France, though of less dimensions.”’ BRAZIL PREPARES TO REVOKE NEUTRALITY AND POLICE SEA Confiscation of Interned German Ships Expected When Report on Sink- ing of Ship Is Received. RIO JANEIRO, May 2%.—According to the Jornal do Commercio, it was decid- ed at a meeting of the parliamentary and diplomatic commissions called yester- day by the Foreign Minister, to adopt the principle of revocation of Brazil's neutrality in the war between the Unit- ed States and Germany, and to police the South Atlantic with the Brazilian fieet. Tt is stated in official circles that Par- HNament will order the confiscation of all German shirs in Brazilian ports as soon as the official report of the in- quiry into the torpedoing of the Bra- zillan steamer Tijuca, made at Bor- deaux is received. Opening of all Brazilian ports to the war ships of the entente allies was advocated in the Chamber of Deputies Wednesday by Nilo Pecan- ha, the foreign minister, Antonio Bueno de Andrada, and several other members of parliament. Senor de Andrade declared that such a measure would be in the interest of Brazil, whose existence depended upon free- dom of the seas. A bill providing for revocation of the aecree of neutrality will be presentéd to the Chamber tomorrow. It is believed that the Chamber, whose tendencies tu enlarge the political horizon of Brasil have been more and more in evidence, “ill demand incorporation in this project of a clause giving wide powers to the Government. U, S, BUILDING “JITNEY” SHIPS Contracts Awarded for 20 Steel Ves- sels of 3500 Tons Each, WASHINGTON, May 3%.—The United States Government has begun the con- struction of “jitney’’ ships in the let- ting of contracts for 2 steel ships of 2500 tonseeach to a corporation at Pensacola, Fla. “This marks the beginning of ‘jitney’ ship construction,” said Chairman Den- man of the United States Shipping Board, “and they will prove effective to maritime commerce. This also marks the beginning of steel construction work on a large scale in the gulf region. Pensacola te within 18 miles of Bir- mingham.

LONDON, “May 2%.—Premier Lioyd George, oh AAnouncing in the House of Commons today that more effective blows had been dealt against submarines in the last three weeks than during any corresponding perioa of the war, paid a tribute to the assistance given by the American navy, saying: “We owe a very considerable debt of gratitude to the American people for the effective assistance they have renderec and the craft they have placed at our disposal. Now that the American nation is in the war, it is easier to make er- rangements for the protection of our mercantile marine than it was before.” The Premier’s statement on submarine warfare was altogether the most satis- factory heard in England in many months. “It is much more difficult,”’ ae said, “for me to give a public answer on this than on any other topic. It is very difficult for me to give information without. to a certain extent revealing things which we had better keep to our- selves. All I can say is that we are making substantial progress. “During the last three weeks or monta we have dealt more efficiently with sub- marines than during any corresponding period of the war. This is true of this week, as well as of the preceding weeks. There is no doubt the effect will te made manifest in a considerable reduc- tion of our shipping losses. “It ig true we are not through with the month of May, but if the ratio of Iceses during the last 2% days is not ex- ceeded then the reduction upon April | will be very considerable. Indeed, there does not seem to be any reason to an- ticipate any worse figures in the com- ing week. The arrangements made for Gealing with submarines Nave been in- creasingly efficient.”’ The Premier’s reference to American aesistance was loudly cheered. “There is a distinct Improvement in cur food prospects as the result of the improvement .in the submarine situa- tion,”’ said the Premier. “‘It is very dif- ficult, however, to give a favorable an- swer which would not be mischievous. If I were to say there is no danger of starvation of the people I would: be saying, ‘what's the good of cutting up our grass land, and what's the good of rationing.’ ‘T say, after taking counsel with my advisers and after going into the figurea very carefully, that if the nation ecor- omizes and is not guilty of waste the submarine menace is not one that need cause us any fear that the war is going t» be lost for that reason.”’ “T see that today the Germans are depending mainly on submarine War- fare for success,’’ said Lioyd George. “All I can say is that if that is their main hope of success it is doomed to disappointment. I say it with a full sense of responsibility and on behalf of the Government. after full considera- tion of the whole facts. That does not mean that the people need not econ- omize, that farmers need not plow their lands. It means that if everyone does his duty the German hope of triumph in the war based oh submarines is the greatest miscalculation in the whole series of miscaiculations of that sated empire. triotically, éach in his own way, to the common stock, then I say the sub- marine is not going to defeat us.” Cat ie War Risk taserance Rates on Ships te United Kinagdont.

Policemen will make a Kouse-te-house canvass next Wednesday and Thursday, to notify all men from 21 to 8 years of age inclusive, to register June 5, under the requirements of the selective conscription act. Acting Mayor Aloe today issued an order for the police canvass. He said a list, supplied by the Election Board, showing the names of all votefs who were within the age limits at the time of the last registration, Feb. 15, would be supplied to the policemen. The policemen are to visit every house where a man within the age limit lives, rand are to make a full report of those located and notified, this report to be in the Mayor’s office Friday. The acting Mayor said he would issue tomorrow his proclamation declaring Registration day a public holiday, and asking for its general observance. Another order to the police was that one patrolman should be stationed at each of the 600 polling places on Regis- tration day. Another police canvass, fol- lowing the registration, to round up de- linquents, will be ordered if it is found necessary. M. E. Green, executive assistant in the registration work, sent notices to the superintendents of 37 St. Louis hos- pitals, public and private, that they will be required to make enrollment of all male patients within the age limits on registration day, and will be held legal- ly responsible for filling out and send- ing in blanks for them all. The ages of patients are a part of the records of all hospitals, and this fact will help the superintendent's work.

Yeniseisk, in Central Siberia, reports that during the houses were burned and that the pop- ulation is in a condition of panic. Men of various foreign nationalities, headed by anarchist leaders and escaped crim- inals, have overrun the district, the ad- vices state. The local Council of Work- men’s and Soldiers’ Deputies declared martial law and all public institutions and officiale are under the orders of a military dictator. A dispatch from Tsaritysm, in the Government of Saratov, says all au- thority has been overthrown in the city, which is completely in the hands of the peasants. Minister of War Kerensky, speak- ing at Helsingfors before starting on his tour of the front, referred to the military situation in Asia Minor, of which the official news quotes him as saying: “There is danger not only of losing Armenia, but possibly part of the Cau- casus."’ The soldiers levied a contribution of 1,500,000 rubles ($750,000) for the increase of their pay and confiscated ships on the Volga. Latest reports from the Minsk Gov- ernment state that the agrarian disor- ders threaten complete ruin of agricul- ture there. The public organizations are doing their best to show the peas- ants the foolhardiness of their actions. In one district all the wine cellars were sacked and the militia found itself pow- erless to prevent drunken riots. Public organizations and committees are striving to stem the tide of anarchy which is sweeping many districts of Bessarabia. The Kishinev peasants have driven their cattle on to fields where grain was being reserved. Food conditions are particularly serious to this part of Russia. The Pskov District Committee has de- cided that all agricultural lands may be taken free of charge, and this has. re- suited in a general confiscation. In many cities the soldiers’ commit- tees, by taking prompt action, have suc- ceeded in anticipating revolts and in re- straining the impulse of the population towarG indiscriminate confiscation and all kinds of lawlessness. In others, how~- ever, the peasants, defying restraint, have burned or sacked and appropriat- ed Government and private properties and a general state of anarchy prevails.

I believe I know only two policemen whose names have been men- tidned—Cummins and McCormack. I did not even meet any of them unless, possibly, I met Cummins, and if I did it was merely a chance meeting at which there was no disucssion of anything which could possibly be construed as a deal or frame-up on any matter of legis- lation. I know McCormack only from the fact that for many years he walked a beat about the Laclede Hotel, where I frequently stopped when in 8t.

I did not want any of it, if there was one, and I was glad to help my friends. “I believe all of this noise is raised because I did not make a fight to get a job for Mackay. He frequently came tc my office and talked about wanting a job. He first wanted to be Warden of the Penitentiary, and then Beer In- spector, and then got down to wanting a clerical job in one of the asylums. “Every time he talked to me he said. ‘T guess that will be all right, and if | Opportunity presents itself 1 will speak to the Governor.’ I never did speak to the Governor about him.

Representative Farris’ legislative career began when he was a smal! boy. His father, the late John W, Farris, who was Speaker of the House, appointed him a page. Later he was a legislative clerk, and in 1898 he was elected to the State Sen- ate from the Twenty-fourth District. He was re-elected in i802 and in 1906 was elected a member of the House from Crawford County. He was re-elected to the House in 1910, having been out of the House one session. In 1912 he remaved to Rolla, where in 1914 he was elected to rep- resent Phelps County in the House, He was re-elected in 1916, Farris’ career in the Legislature has without doubt been the most brilliant of any member who has served within many years. He is rated as the State’s best orator. He is a rapid thinker, an untiring work- er and resourceful to a remarkable degree, possessing a power of leader- ship. In the last Legislature he was the unanimous choice of the Democrats in the house for floor leader, and he never failed in an effort to force the Democrats to follow his leadership in matters of legislation. He forced the Gardner administra- tion's legislative program through the House in spite of the almost unanimous opposition of the Republicans to some of it, and the strong opposition of Deme ocratic members. After the Legislature the Governor gave much of the credit for the success of his measures to Far- ris, and during and since the Legisla- ture the Governor frequently consult- ed him regarding appointments and other State matters. ‘ | Farris always has been allied with the combine interests in the Legisla- ture, the organizations formed each ses- sion by a few members to control leg- islation. His early career in the Sen- ate was clouded by an indictment in 1903 in thes alum baking powder scandal, charging him with having accepted a bribe of $1000. His first trial resulted in a failure of the jury to agree, and the case was taken on a change of venue to Maries County, where later it was dismissed. He was reindicted In 1905, however, ana was acquitted at a trial presided over by Judge Sam Davis of Marshall. Farris is 49 years old. He was born at Lebanon, Mo., and has resided in the State all his life. KANSAS’ LOWEST WINTER WHEAT YIELD IN 20 YEARS INDICATED TOPEKA, Kan., May 3.—A prospect- ive yield of 40,000,000 bushels of winter wheat in Kansas this year, the lowest yield in 20 years, despite the fact that reports indicate the acreage is larger than any ever devoted to a single crop in the State, is forecast by J. C. Mohler, secretary of the Kameas State Board of Agriculture. The report indicates that the corn acre. age will be larger than that of last year, although the condition is given as 73.3 per cent or 68 per cent lower than that of a year ago. The condition of pots fs given as 83.8 per cent, or 8.1 per cent higher than that of « year ago. The prospective wheat yield indicates an average of about 10 bushels an acre on the area of growing wheat reported a ago. “This aggregate of wheat,” the re- port says, “is i Held to Knock Out His St, a SKINKER SUIT 10 BE FOUCHT. WITH ROAD BOND RULING State Supreme Court Decision Louis County Contest. © CAN USE FUND IN CITIES Clay County Verdict to Go to U. S. Supreme Bench in $3,000,000 Bond Issue Case. ae The recent decision of the Missouri Supreme Court in the Clay County road bond issue case, in which it was held that money derived from the sale of bonds could be used for building con- necting links of roads through incorpor- ated towns, will be presented to the Su- preme Court of the United States by at- térneys for 8t. Louis County, as the basis for a demand for the dismigsal of the suit filed by Thomas K. Skinker, the sole opponent of St. Louis County's $3,000,000 bond issue. The latest decision of the Missouri Supreme Court knocks out the principal grounds of the Skinker suit, and the at- torneys for the county believe that when it is brought to the attention of the United States Supreme Court, the Skink- er suit will be dismissed. It is thought probable also that Skinker, in the light of this decision, will withdraw his suit, to avoid further delays and expense. Those interested tn haying the St. Louis County bond case cleared up have not given up hope that he will voluntarily withdraw his sult. e Edward M. Flesh, president of the St. Louis County Good Reads Association. which has been active in defending the bond issue against litigation, said today that the attorneys for the county would lay the decision before the Supreme Court of the United States as early as possible. Basis of Court’s Reling, The full text of the Missouri Suprem >} Court’s decision, received by the Post: Dispatch today, shows that the court intends to leave no doubt whatever as to the right to use a vortion of the proceeds of bond issues for building roads through incorporated towns. In Clay County plats were prepared by the County Court, showing the links of road to be .constructed in the incorporated towns. In discussing this point, the Court, ina decision by Judge Fred Williams, said: ‘‘Was it the purpose and intent of the ‘constitutional amendment and the sub- sequent legislative enactments, in en- abling the raising of such large funds for the purpose of building an improved ecunty system of eonnected modern roads, to provide only. for improving ru- ral roads and to make no provision for providing funds for insuring an equally good improvement upon those small con- necting links of roads lying within the incorporated tewns or cities along the reutes of those cross-country roads? “Or was it the intention that pro- vision should be made for raising funds for raising a uniform connect- ed system of improved highways so that the same might (if condition re- quired) be made free from _ small stretches of mud holes or unimproved roadways where the same passed through such towns of cities? That the latter intention is certainly con- sitent wih the purpose sough to be subserved is, we think, very appar- ent, “To hold otherwise would be to ap- ply retrogressive construction to pro- gressive legislation, Should Keep Iater+ in Mind, ‘Courts cannot make laws, neither should they unmake them; but whenever permissible and consistent with sound rules of construction should allow that construction which is in keeping with the purpose sought to be obtained and not inconsistent with the progress of the times. ‘‘We therefore hold that the roads specified by the County Court in its or- der are public roads, within the mean- ing of said act, and the constitutional amendment authorizing the same, and that the order of the County Court was not’ defective in that regard. WANTS MEN WHO KEEP PRICE OF COPPER UP PUT IN- JAIL Speaker Clark Declares 16 Cents Being Paid by Government Is Excessive. | WASHINGTON, May %.—Speaker Clark, occupying the floor temporarily during a debate on one of the food bills in the House yesterday, demanded prosecution of the men who keep the price of copper up to % cents. The Speaker's statement was brought out by a remark of Representative Lunn of New York that Bernard Baruch had succeeded in obtaining copper for the Government at 16 cents a pound de. spite the faet that the copper producers were getting in excess of 30 cents. “You say Baruch got a price of 16 cents for copper,"’ said Speaker Clark. “but don't you know that the Utah Copper Co., In its report to the stock- holders, declared they could put Cop- per f. o. b. cars at 5% cents per pound? “Why does not the Attorney-Goneral hop onto those fellows that put copper up to 3 cents? I am willing to give Baruch credit for putting it down from % to 16 cents, but he didn't pull it down far enough. The Attorney-Gen- eral, should put. every one of these fellows in jail between now and Sat- urday night who keep the price up.” BRITISH FREIGHTER SUNK, 2 AMERICANS AMONG 53 MISSING Steamship Feltria ef 5,254-Tens Terpedeed Off the trish Coast Mey &.

FRANCE EXPECTED TO USE MEAT CARDS AND TO FIX PRICES Severe Penalties for Hoarding and Speculation; Butchers Cut Prices 10 to 15 Cents a Pound. PARIS, May 2%.—A decision to intro- duce meat cards at an early date is un- derstood to have been reached at a con- ference just held by Premier Ribot, Louis J.

IRISH CONVENTION SHOULD BE HELD SOON, LLOYD GEORGE SAYS Premier Trying to Arrange Basis of Representation and Declares Delay Wourd Be Fatal.

By a Staff Correspondent of the Post- Disvatch and New York World. PARIS, May 2%.—American newspaper correspondents Tuesday saw for the first time the fruits of the great French of- fensive unleashed between, Soissons and Rheime on April 16. Wh traversing the new French line alo the 25-mile front the party arrived at Craonne half an hour before Chevreaux, a mile to the northeast, was attacked by the French. From an observation point three kilo- meters (less than two miles) in the rear, on a high knoll overlooking the plain and town of Ville-aux-bois, the party stood with the General in command of that particular army and saw the at- tack. As the party approached Craonne—the automobile following a road parallel to the Chemin-des-Dames, where fierce fighting was still going on for the Cali- fornie and Vauclerc plateau, the rumble of a heavier bombardment further east became apparent. Not a single second ticked off the watch unaccompanied by the sound of a bursting shell. Making their way to the observation point, the correspondents were told that half an hour—at 4:30 o’clock—an attack would be made against the Chevreux defenses. in Chevreux in the Furnace. Powerful binoculars showed the vil- lage of Chevreux even then “in the fur- nace,”’ as the French say of a heavily bombarded place, with great wreaths and streamers of yellow smoke clouds sional tall black jets, like water spouts, spurting upward when the heavier shells, with long-time fuse, penetrated deep before exploding. In the valley and on lower hills around, whence this terrific fire came, there was in sight not a gun, not a horse, not a soldier. But sudden flashes indicated the gun emplacements, al- though the flashes didn’t last long enough definitely to lobate a battery. Not a wisp of smoke betrayed the gun positions, as even the exhaust gases from their muzzles were blown out and *| led away through pipe lines. The correspondents had been watch- ing a short time when one looked at his watch, saying, “It's 4:0—the attack should start soon,’’ and the words were hardly spoken when there came the ‘“‘fire of destruction,” as the army calls it, which is intended to smash everything within a prescribed radius. It was as though the guns had not been firing at all before. In a ‘ew seconds the volume and intensity cf the bombardment soared in a might’ crescendo. The valley looked as though swarms and myriads of new fireflies had appeared, all winking madly, and the noise rose in pitch to resemble a whole procession of these long, skeleton-built vehicles used tn the United States to carry girders and structural steel pasa- ing over co ge ate am Blo Out Under Smoke. Snenaeneety Chevreux was blotted cut by a thick, clinging cloud of heavy yel- low-brown smoke.

Occasionally a few special! charged with certain acids and gases, were hurled into the village, and ‘the chemical reaction on the high explosive smoke caused it to vanish temporarily, affording momentarily a glimpse of the scene of the bombardment. French airplanes were always over- head, besides nine French observatioa balloons, and not a single enemy air- craft was in sight. The Krupp gunners were evidently too busy trying to sid their infantry and break up the French attack to waste time and shells against the French aviators circling above at wili. Only a few times did glasses show anti-aircraft shrapnel bursting near them. The captive observation balloons were not bothered at all, because the crack anti-aircraft gun crew of ihe French army was stationed in this see- tor, protecting them. General at Observation Post. The popular conception that.the mod- ern General sits comfortably in a splen- did chateau miles away and follows the battle with a telephone and mup, was violated by the General commanding in this sector, who stood at the observa- tion post’ himself, apart and alone, watching the course of the attack through field glasses. His intense rerv- ous strain in watching his men in action was betrayed by his hands, which he clasped and unclasped continually over the glasses. A stern hush of repressed excitement fell upon'‘the numerous French soldiers in the vicinity, resting after their duty in the trenches. During the ordinary bombardment, they had gone about working and playing, unheeding the cannona@, but, when the drum fire marking the attack began all stopped whatever they had been doing and hud- dled together in clusters, their eyes glued on the smudge showing where their comrades were storming the Ger- man lines at Chevreux. Many had relatives, and all had friends, in the inferno across the smil- ing green valley—for, curiously enough, only isolated spots like Craonne, Chev- feux, the Chemin des Dames and Berry - Au-Bac exhibited signs of the tremen- dous bombardments they hati endured, and even the small woods which had been shelled hour after hour still wore profuse green foliage. The annihilating drum fire was still raining down when the correspondents left to see the French batteries de- vastating Brimont, where the Krupp guns which bombard Rheims are mounted. Officers at the Chevreux ob- servation post stated that they could tell, by the shifting lines of shell ex- plosions, that the French made certain progress, a8 well as by the German ar- tillery barrage moving up across the shelis, village. but to unpracticed eyes it was! hard to follow. During the entire en- gagement not a sign of human life was evidenced. “Gott Strafe Amerika.” During the morning, near Soissons. the party saw how the French nipped the German stronghold on the south bank of the Aisne by a gigantic pincers movement. They smashed toward the east from the Laffaux sector and t»o- ward the west from near Vailly, caue- ing the Germans to fall back lest they be surrounded. 1" | In the village of Missy, which the Ger- raced across the sky and then the dull crump as they burst. The most impressive idea gained from the visit is that no price was too high for the French to have paid for the positions conquered between Soissons and Rheims, as now they are firmly intrenched everywhere in the dominating positions which will en- able them to make further and less costly progress. Before it was the enemy who had the heights of .the Aisne and the quarries and other vantage points. No matter what price the French paid, they assuredly did not lose 30,- 000 prisoners, as the Crown Prince did. Despite the German claim of un- equaled French losses, the corres- pondents found the army's morale high—the surest proof that the men were being properly cared for—and great exuberance among the officers over the entry of the United States into the war. Coples of President Wilson's speech, printed in German, scattered inside the enemy lines by aviators, adorned the quarters of many offi- cers as souvenirs. One officer's copy was creased and dirty, but he ex- plained he had purchased it as a souvenir from a German prisoner captured Sunday, whom he interro- gated. It was a gladdening sight for the correspondents tuo see the Stars and Stripes behind the front. Since the war was declared the American am- bulance section and Red Cross units and other numerous American or- ganizations represented at the front have been displaying Old Glory. The party did not get near the base of the Lafayette escadrille, but at Compeigne met Kenneth Marr and RoBert Souberin, American aviators, both on their way to Paris on a fur- lough, who said the Lafayette esca- drille distributed great numbers of the copies of the President's address. Although the escadrille is a fighting and not a bombarding unit, the mem- bers all wanted to scatter copies. FORMER TELEGRAPHERS WANTED to Serve Commercial Com- Military Asked panies and RKRelileve Eligibles. NEW YORK, May 2.—In order to meet the demand for telegraphers for the army and at the same time not ham- per the commercial telegraph companies, Maj. Carl F. Hartmann, signal officer of the Eastern district, today issued an ap- peal to the thousands of former teles- raphers, men and women, to report for temporary service at some point where an operator eligible for active military duty may be released for the Signal Corps Reserves. The reserve needs 3000 men, including telegraphers, telephone switchboard operators, linemen, elec- triclans, mechanics and cooks. Maj. Hartmann believes that there are thousands of former telegraph opera- tors who have retired from the telegraph field and who are ineligible for military duty, but who could fill the demand for commercial and press operators. Went With Perry te Japan. NEW YORK, May 3.—John Canavan, who was said to be the last surviving member of the Perry expedition to Japan in 182, died Wednesday at his home at Woodhaven, N. Y., at the age of 82.’ He served under Commodore Perry as an able seaman, the purpose of obtaining easy money.” The murder was exposed through a mysterious telegram signed “K. Ad- ams” sent to Percy Peck at Grand Rapids, brother of Dr. Watt's wife, suggesting an autopsy on John E. Peck’s body, and reading, “suspicions aroused—demand autopsy.” The au- thorities took up the case and an autopsy showed Peck had died from arsenic poisoning. Dr. Waite confessed to the Dis- trict-Attorney that he had bought arsenic three days before the death of his father-in-law on March 12, but said he had done so on request of the elderly man, who told him he wished to kill himself, being despondent over the death of his wife, who died on Jan. 30, soon after she had arrived at. Dr. Watie’s home here. To bear out this statement Dr. Waite tried to bribe a former negro servant to testi- fy that she knew of a desire on Peck’s part to kill himself. As the evidence against him began to accumulate Dr. Waite made an unsuccessful “attempt to kill himself by taking an overdose of drugs. For several days he lay in a stupcer hover- ing between life and death. It was brought out at the trial that a few hours after Dr. Waite married Miss Clara Peck he complained to her about the money settlement made on him. He had been promised $60.90, but his wife’s father, instead of giving him a lump sum, provided payments of $300 monthly. Arriving in this city the cou- ple found awaiting them an expensive- ly furnished apartment, a gift from Peck. A gift of $3000 was received from a’ maiden aunt of Mrs. Waite, a Miss Peck, who lived at a hotel here. Dr. Waite urged Miss Peck to give him more money and subsequently the dentist got $30,000 from her, which he said he would invest. Sept. 26, 1914, Dr. Waite invited his father-in-law to come from Grand Rap- fda to live with him here, and a few days afterward the dentist began a study of deadly germ diseases. He visited a specialist on bacteriology and bought many books on the subject. About this time Dr. Waite met Margaret Horton, afterward known as his “studio com- panion,” -and on Jan, 10, when Mrs. Waite’s parents arrived in this city. Dr. Waite and Mrs. Horton registered at a fashionable hotel as “W. A. Walters and wife.” Dr. Waite obtained the arsenic on pre- tense that he wanted it to “kill cats” and, on the night his father-in-law Med he sent a telegram in his wife's name t: her brother in Grand Rapids prepar- ing him for hia father’s death He made the announcement of Peck's death, undertook arrangements for embalming the body and urged its cremation. Dr. Waite did not attend the funeral after the body had been shipped to Grand Rapids for burial, excusing his absence om pretense of having to perform an op- eration in New York, although he never was a surgeon. The state charged that Dr. Waite of- fered $0000 to the undertaker who had embalmed the body If he would prepare a mixture containing arsenic and declare it had been used in embalming the body. Dr. Watte received the sentence of death with unconcern. Before he was condemned to death he said in court: “I only wish I had more than one body te give and I hope that my soul may go on and serve hereafter those whom J have injured.” ovenina | Population Repatriated After Last Harvest, but Not Under Pressure of Wilson and Pope. AMSTERDAM, May %3%.—An official statement has been issued in. Berlin in regard to United States Ambassador Gerard's declaration tha& the inhabitants of Lille were deported from the ec'ty in April and. May of last year and made to work on land for the German army and the German civil population. The state- ment says: “The population of the German home land did not share in the corn harvest of occupied territory and the inhabitants , of occupied Northern France swlely ben- efited therefrom. Stocks used in fee:line German soldiers were replaced by simi- lar quantities taken from Germany.” The report says that the population of Lille was not repatriated under pressurs of the Pope, the Spanish King and Pres- ident Wilson, but because the inhabit- ants had been promised that they w ‘uld be sent back home when the harvest was finished. CAPT, DE LAAGE KILLED BY FALL Commander of Acnestenn Escadrilie Was Climbing te Attack German. PARIS, May %.—Capt. de Laage, com- manding the American Escadrilie, has been killed while flying mear Ham, 0.3 the Somme front. He set out in a eps cial machine of the climbing type to attack a German. Mounting almost per- pendicularly, he had reached a conwid- erable height when the engine stopped abruptly. The machine dropped straight to the earth and De Laage was crushed beneath the motor. Maj. Mitchell, an American aerial ex- pert and representative of the corps and the embassy, attended the funeral today.

The juice of two fresh lemons strained into a bottle containing three ounces of orchard white makes a whole quarter pint of the most re- markable lemon skin bleach and beautifier at about the cost one must pay for a small jar of the ordimary cold creams. Care should be taken to strain the lemon juice through a fine cloth so no lemon pulp gets in, then this lotion will keep fresh for months. It really will bleach and remove such blemishes as pimples, blackheads, freckles and tan and is the ideal skin softener, smoothener and beautifier which absorbs readily and is not sticky or greasy. Just try it! Get three ounces of orchard white at any pharmacy and two lemons from the grocer and make up a quarter pint of this harmless lemon lotion and apply it daily to the face, neck, arms and hands. It really does soften, freshen. bleach and bring out the roses and beauty of any skin. It is simply marvelous to smoothen rough, red hands.—ADV.

Tickets, including the dance privileges, are only 25 cents each, and may be had at the Grand-Leader, the Fios Studio, 509 North Broadway; from any member of the club, or at the door. The organization is composed of young men, the musical section numbering $1, including mandolins, guitars, flute and harp, the latter instrument being in the hands of Miss Tice, one of the very few accomplished in its playing in this city. The program includes 15 numbers. After the concert the hall, arranged to seat nearly 2000, wiil be converted into a dance pavilion. The expense attaching to this benefit for poor babi@s is nominal, most of it having been eliminated by contributions »9f the McAdoo Printing Co. and J. T. Evans. The proceeds in large part will be applied to saving babies from ‘the perils of the heated terms, the Mandolin Club contributing its services.

The time of flight is from 4 to 5 p. m., end the passengers are members of thé Reserve Corps, in training for military balloon pilots. The balloon is one of the largest ever used in St. Louis, with a capacity of 50,000 cubic feet, and can carry eight persons. Six, including Lambert as pilot, were carried in its first ascent yes- terday afternoon.* A smaller balloon, with Paul McCullough as pilot and with four passengers, left the same place soon afterward, and. both landed beyond Belleville, about sundown. Lambert received a telegram today from Capt. Edgar of the aeronautical division of the United States Army, saying that Capt. Edgar would be here a week hence to inspect possible sites, near St, Louis, for an army aviation training camp. Lambert favors the use of the Kinloch Park field, in St. Louis County, for that purpose.

Zimmer of S508&sA Delmar boulevard, a naturalized citizen of Ger- man descent, created a disturbance ac the King’s Theater last night when he interrupted a patriotic speech. Elmer E.

HERMAN BILLIK, SAVED FROM HANGING, DIES IN A HOSPITAL Chicagoan Convicted of retseetnd! Vraal Family, but Freed After Chief. Witness Recanted., CHICAGO, May 2%.—Herman Billik, once sentenced to be hanged when con- victed of poisoning five members of the Vrzal family, but whose sentence was commuted to imprisonment and who later was pardoned, died last night in the county hospital. Throughout the period since his arrest, nearly 10 years ago, Billik has pro- tested his innocence. Just before lapsing into unconsciousness two days ago he reiterated his innocence in a statement to the hospital physician. Heart disease and dropsy was the cause of death. Billik's conviction was principally on the testimony of Jerry Vrzal, a youthful survivor of the family Billik was accused of poisoning. Vrzal later alleged his tes- timony had been made under police pres- sure. he .% Busy Bee Bake Shops This Week. Fieur-de-Lis Coffee Cake, 16 cents. FREIGHT SHIPMENT BY AIR FROM CHICAGO TO ST.

By LINCOLN EYRE, Paris Correspondent of the Post-Dis- patch and New York World Who Accompanied the French Mission to Amertea. PARIS, May 25.—While M. Viviani and Marshal Joffre feel it is not necessary to make a formal statement, at least until they have reported to Premier Ribot, I am authorized to express their complete satisfaction with every phase of the nussion's visit to the United States. ‘We could not have been treated more kindly this side of Paradise,’’ the ex- Fremier said to me. M. Viviani found the minds of President Wilson and his counsellors more receptive than he had dared to hope.

( All Colors administration differ fram the view of: the war and of the manner in which it must be waged held by the French Gov-~ ernment. The chief of the mission will tell his colleagues in the French Cabi- net that Washington is no less keen than Paris to bring every atcm of America’s strength to bear upon the business "iE hastening victory. Joffre’s Proposals Accepted. Proposals of a military nature ad- vanced by Marshal Joffre at the request of the War Department were accepted in their entirety, although it was found impossible to enter upon certain points immediately, owing chiefly to the ship- ping problem. No vast stream of Amer- ican troops is likely to flow across the Atlantic in the near future, because that rright mean dislocation of the allies’ r.aritime transportation system. ‘How- ever, an American contingent, number- ing more men than the average Ger- man division, will appear on French soil long before such an event would have been deemed possible of accom- plishment. Its commander, Gen. Persh- ing, will be in Paris soon. His men will not be far behind him. Before their ar- rival Marshal Joffre and his staff will have completed arrangements for their é'isembBarkation and —— by rail to training camps prepare@ for them near the front. They should be ready for the trenches in a few weeks from the day they reach France. A comprehensive program, covering every detail of the plans made by the Marshal and the American military ay- thorities, was drawn up and ratified by President Wilson on the mission’s re- turn from its tour of the country. Its scope, doubtless, will be extended from [ time to time as new armies are rounded into shape in the United States. Mar- shal Joffre is confident the United States will move faster than Great Britain did iy the first months of the war. As an instance of thé co-operative spirit built Up by the Marshal’s activities at Washington, I may cite the fact that it is agreed the American divisions will go to the firing line organized after the fashion found most practical by the FPrench—that is, they will be 12,000 men to a division instead of some 20,000, and the auxiliary services will be grouped as they are in the French divisionary units. A division will be composed of two brigades. France to Supply “Materials.” What the French call ‘material’’— artillery, wagon trains, motor trucks and drivers, all the technical corps that go to make up a combatant body, will be supplied by the French for the present. But eventually, by next spring at latest, Marshal Joffre hopes to see an Amer- ican expeditionary force, several hun- dred thousand strong, as complete in every detail as the present British army, taking its place in the battle front in France. There may be a slight lull after the arrival of the first Ameriean effectives in order to give time to insure the ade- quate arrangement of transport facil- ities. The transport problem, one of the gravest all over the world today, is en- gaging the earnest attention of French experts like Lieut. Alfred Lindebom, who, remained in New York after the mission's departure to consult further with American shipping officials and tteamship companies. It is likely that | Admiral Chocheprat, who expects to have an important apnference with Rear Admiral Sims in Paris in the course of a few days, will be asked to further ad- vise both the French and American Governments in this respect. The Admiral is delighted with the strenuous activities of the Navy. De- partment at Washington and lavishes praise on Secretary Dan.eis, Assistant Secretary Roosevelt and Admirals Ben- sdn and Mayo. He is somewhat dis- appointed, however, at the delay in as- rembling a fleet of small craft for sub- marine chasing, caused by the Amer- ican navy's lack of power to requisi- ‘lon such craft. The French Ministex of Marine had hoped that considerable numbers of mctor boats, yachts an: tues would get under way immediatety to join in the U-boat hunt, and Ad- miral Chocheprat’s report must “ause consicerablé istllusfonment in this con. nection. Requisition in Law Needed, Beyond a few yachts sold to the Gov- ernment by their patriotic owners for $1 each, boats were offered only at ex- orbitant prices, reaching triple and quadruple their cost, and the Navy De- partment discovered, even while the French mission was in Washington, that a real fleet of marine chasers could not be got together unt!l a requl- sition law was passed by Congress. Aa miral Chocheprat is therefore obliged to inform Minister of Marine lLacase that it will be some weeks before the United States begins to participate, to any ex tent, in the patrol against submarines. Meanwhilo the Admiral acknowledges with the deepest satisfaction the Amer- ers, many of which already are operat- ing with French and British destroyers in waters about England and France Any delay in the passage of a bill etv- ing the American Government power to requisition ships would be extremely irksome from the French point of view.

If this disposes us to look around suspiciously when we go out to spend a week end in the country, we trust that those familiar with what we have borne may bear with us sweetly and grant us a reasonable curiosity in whether the butcher’s delivery wagon is indeed our once beloved Ford.

All the hardships that the men endured the women endured two- fold. All the perils that the men dared, the women dared a thousandfold, be- cause they braved the*dangers of moth- erhood with no science or skill of a physician to help them in their extrem- ity. And these women, who had the strength and courage to do and dare, left behind them worthy daughters, who are just as ready to stand back-to-back, fighting with their husbands as their foremothers were. Read the stories of the successful self-made men of today, and you will find just such a wife vorking, saving, sacrificing, pushing him on to the goal. There is nothing the matter with the American wife. She’s all right. Three cheers for her. Awizt, “a (Copyright, 1917, by the Wheeler Syndi- cate, Inc.) to do, are women today turning toward those old forms of expres: sion found in the various kinds of nee- dliework of ye olden time. In a small shop opened in the front parlor of a St. Louis woman's house is a shop which is gay with the once popular form of decoration known as -crewel work and tapestry embroidery. Every article of the household furnishings is represente:! there, in trese beautiful old specimers of needlework of the early and middle part of the last century, the origins of which may be traced back to the Six- teenth Century. There are bed covers, bed hangings, tablecloths, chair covers, book. covera, purses, tapestry pictures, fire screens, Many are quaint, harking back to the early stitches—the tent stitch, cross stitch, Gobelin stitch, Hungary stitch, the Ital. fan and the spanish stitch. ‘These pat- terns have been lovingly sought for all over the country, north, south, east and west. Even a brief study of the subject of embroidered tapestries 's inten¢ely inter- esting. There are some few helpful books upon the subject. The study rf these interesting specimens of early art, samplers and tapestry embroidery, fur- nishes one with a good working soci! history of the Sixteenth, Seventeenth N OT because they have nothing else Revival of Tapesirg Embroidery and Eikhteenth Centuries, tn France, Itaiy and\ England. In ihe days of the two Louis, XIV and XVI, we find the -adies of the court even embroidering on horseback, riding in carriages, every- where they could pussibly carry on their work. An explanation of this is given in the fact that the dress of the men, us well as of the women, was so elaborate- ly embroidered that there was need of this work. We find that, in England, tapestry embroidery came into vogue with the introduction in the Sixteenth Century of tapestries, and, like the tapestries, these were expressive of classical] sub- jects. Later, the Lible stories begin to creep in, the Old Testament stories of Adam and Eve, Queen Esther and Aha- suerus, being especially popular. Then, we find in the embroideries, as the body of the people became more so- cially conscious, scenes from the life ébout them. At first these were largely court ladies and gentlenien, but home scenes were also used. —_—— A Useful Tip. HE Slum Visitor: I should think you'd be afraid to live here. There's no fire-escape.

(Copyright, 1917, by The Bell Syndicate, Inc.) oon a | nt Rifbons in Roman Stripes ¢¢ AVE you noticed what lovely LY ribbons there are in St. Louis shops this spring?’’ asked The Girl Who Sews, as she settled herself and her sewing bag for a comfortable visit with her old friend. “They are so beautiful that I have to go and look at them, even when I cannot think of any reason for buy- ing. One thing that delights me is that the Ronis striped ribbons and‘ silks are being used again. I was 80 pleased when I first found that out, that I came home and hunted up a lot of scarfs and sashes and hat bands that I bought when I was in Rome, several years ago, and now I’m plan- ning to use them:on my new spring and summer clothes. “Just look at this roll of narrow ribbon; you see, it is barely two inches wide and the colors are lovely and, on this background of dark blue, they work out. just the right effegt for one of those long, loose girdles, to wear with a new dark blue crepe de chine gown, cut on the straight lines that are so popular just now. As you see I am turning in the ends to form a point and putting in a tiny weight to hold them down. With these pink and green and blue and yellow beads, I am going to make some little tassels to finish them off. “Here is a lot of much narrower Roman striped ribbon; I am sure I do not know why I bought it, or what I intended to do with it at the time, but here it is, several yards of it, which I have not touched. With it I am going to try to make \ Howto } Use Them a girdle, like one I saw on a beautiful lace gown in a smart shop the other day. It was made, as nearly as I could study it out, of two long stripes of very narrow ribbon tied at intervals —every three inches, I should think, in such a-way as to form an open work chain. It was beautiful, and I came away determined to make one like it, if possible. This ribbon, with its deli- cate pink and blue stripes, would make @ lovely chain girdle to wear with a pretty white afternoon gown. “A for this wide sash, that will be useful, too, this season. It is so long that I can wind it about my waist twice, knotting it loosely at one side the second time. Or, I can tie it more closely and let the ends hang nearly down to hem of the skirt. y ‘Here is another piece that will do for a band for my "Panama hat. I am }planning to tie it around the crown, with one bow and two ends at the left side, and I think I shall fringe the ends. Then I am going to have a Roman striped bag, too, I shall make it of this darker ribbon, like the girdle for my mavy blue crepe de chine. “And have you noticed those wide ribbons with Indian designs printed and woven in them? Some, I believe are called Aztec ribbons, and they are gorgeous things. Then there are the Chinese ribbons, too—ribbons with Chinese patterns on them, I mean. I saw one, the other day, marked ‘Ming.’ I want to buy some, to make ake White Shoe Dressin a slipper bag for parties.” A 4 ao - or Mens Womens ndChildrens Shoes Liquid 10 2 coms pee le tee?

I don’t think anything ever made me feel so good in my life as ‘when Frank said, “I should never have made it in the world, old girl, if you hadn't been as interested in my job as I am myseif.” And this was all because of an ar- ticle that I read in the newspaper.

He was a silk salesman then, a:.d I could not see that he had any more chance of getting such a place than 80 other meri in the store, but I made up my mind that if there was any way in which I could help him I was going to do so. Of course, I tried to make him as comfortable as I could, to live within his salary to ha « as good a dinner as I could cook ready for him when he came home at night and to save a dollar or two now and then. But I was not sat- isfied with this, and the newspaper ar- ticle gave me an idea. It was about a famous dry goods merchant who sald that when he was a young salesman he defied anybody to ask him any questicn about the goods he sold that he could not answer. The next day I went to the library and asked the librarian where I could get any information about silk. She referred me to magazine articles, en- cyclopedias and books. There was so much that I didn’t know .where to begin, but I made some notes and read them to Frank that evening. as I knew that he had no time to look up such things himself. He laughed at most of them, but wne or two interested him and he asked me to get more on the sub- ject. Frank himself studied his stock more carefully than he had ever thought of doing before, talked with‘ the buyer about it and-even wrote to the silk man- ufacturers for still more points and also got advertising literature on the sub- ject. I looked over fashion books to find suggestions for various new ways for using silk, thinking perhaps the infor- mation might be useful.

These Liberty Loan Bonds are United States Government Bonds secured by all the taxable resources of the Fed- eral Government. -They are issued in denominations of $50, $100, $500, $1,000 and up to $10U,00U. They bear in- terest at the rate of 314% per annum, payable semi-annual ly—December 15th and June 15th of each year. They are exempt from all Government, State and Municipal ta xes—except inheritance tax. Because Liberty Loan Bonds are issued in popular amounts, it is possible for every home in St. Louis to have its own Liberty Loan Bond. In fact this possibility becomes a certainty in view of the terms upon which the bonds may be bought, as can be seen from the following plans of payment: e Liberty Loan Bonds can be paid for in cash or in five installments as below: @ It is plainly your duty to buy a Liberty Loan Bond.

ARMY HAS DIFFICULTIES ‘Scarcity of Sole Leather Causes ‘Substitution of Wood, Which Is Unsatisfactory. Hy a Staff Correspondent of the Asso- wtated Press Just Keturned From Vienna. NEW YORK, May %.—To the many cares of the Austro-Hungarian Govern- fient has been added an ever-increasing difficulty to clothe and shoe its men in-the field. For many months the greatest economy has been practiced in the army supply departments, but this has not in any way lessened the task of providing several millions of men at the front and in training depots with the equipment needed. Not the smallest rag has been wasted in Austria-Hungary since the outbreak ofthe war. Old uniforms were gonvert- ed into new cloth by adding to the older fiber enough new cotton or woo! to give the fabric reasondble wearing qualities. Hach reusing of the material lessened ite strength, however, so that ultimate- ly it had to be discarded. With im- ports of wool out of the question, the country’s scant reserve had to be used up. For a while some wool was obtained in the Balkans and in Turkey. The Ger- trans, however, bought in the same mar- ket and the surplus held in Bulgaria and Anatolia wae soon used up. Fiber for Clothing. This led to thé development of the fiber industry in the central states. The experiments made with paper, nettle and other“plant fibers were in many cases successful, but fell short of producing a cloth suitable for winter wear. A sort of duck, suitable for summer uniforms, Was won from the nettle fiber, however. A combination of nettle yarn and paper yarn, treated to resist water, is now made into uniform overcoats. The coats are both warm and waterproof, but lack the wearing qualities of all-wool fabric. While Austria-Hungary was an e6x- yorter of shoes and leather articles be- fore the war, it also imported much leather, especially the sort needed for soles. The scarcity of leather in the monarchy is a question of sole leather entirely. — Tfforts made to produce good sole Jeather in Austria-Hungary have not been very successful. In addition to the hides obtained locally being somewhat unsuited, the tanning processes em- ployed do not appear to give the quality eAlled for in army shoes. Substitutes have been used, but finally it Was found that soles made of wood were the next best thing to leather. The men do not like them, because the wooden soles do rrot bend and they tire the feet. This Was led to the removing of shoes and (ther leather equipment of the dead on the battlefield, against which there ex+ sted a deep and universal prejudice up to last winter. ai Sweeping Economy Forced. "During the first year of the war the Austro-Hungarian Government did éverything possible te make the men in the trenches comfortable by the gen- #rous issuance of clothing, shoes and “tood. To the slight retrenchments made later sweeping economy measures had to be added, which recently were ex- tended also to the rations. The allow- ance of bread was reduced by about Krammes and a little more meat was Biven instead. At about the same time, come of the nieatiess days was abolished ‘yy the Government, not because there was a plertitude of cattle, but for the rerson that the supply of breadstuffs had run low and more hides were need- ed to provide shoes for the army. Meanwhile the stores of leather had run 80 low that the Government was ebliged, towards the middie of April, ‘o Texulate the sale of shoes to the civil- ai population.

Gruen, archi- tect, against John T, Milliken of 1150 Belt avenue, a millionaire chemist, for $1670.65 for plans drawn for a mausoleuin of white granite in Bellefontaine Cem- etery, is on trial today in Judge Cal- houn'’s court. Gruen alleges in his petition that Mil- liken employed him in January, 1914, to draw plans for the mausoleum, that he worked on it until! March $81, 1914; that. the lowest bid for the erection of the mausoleum as planned was $35,000, and that he is entitled to 5 per cent, which would be $1770.65, but he received $100 on account, which brought it down that much. Milliken’s answer is as de- nial of lability. The architect testified Milliken was in a hurry for the mausoleum and it was necessary to work a force night and day on the plans and he had to borrow $800 te pay his assistants. Conferences were held from time to time and when the plan was completed Gruen had a water color made to be shown to Mrs. Milliken. Later Milliken told him fhat both were satisfied. But the war came on, the architect explained, and Milliken said he would wait until it was over. In No- vember, 1915, Gruen learned that Milli- ken was going to have a ‘‘stock’’ mauso- leum put up. , William R. Gentry, attorney for Milli ken, in his opening satement said Gruen. who was doing some other work for Milliken, saw him one day looking at some mausoleum designs in « cata logue and wanted to show Milliken what he could do in that line. Milliken permitted him to go ahead, but did not authorize him to draw plans, the at- torney declared. There was a contro- versy, the lawyer said, about payment for this and other work and on Dec. 10. 1915, Milliken gave Gruen a check for $1550 in payment of all demands to date A model of the mausoleum is an ex- hibit in the case. WOMEN ADVISE USE OF “WILD FOOD” IN ENGLAND Begin Country-Wide Campaign te Advocate Economy and Use of Neglected Resources. LONDON, May %.—Women food ex- perts have started a country-wide cam- paign to teach British housewives what food economy means and how to fuse the neglected recources in England's ‘‘wild food.”’ The women have started a cam- paign after the fashion of an electioneer- ing tour in the United States. They are making speeches in theaters, public halls and from soap boxes on street corners. The possibilities of ‘‘wild food” are de- clared by one expert to be so great that country people and the inhabitants of small towns can supply two-thirds ¢6* their needs for at least three-quartere of the year from the fields, woods and streams of their immediate neighbor- hood. This expert declares that there are. more than 260 kinds of food in the British Isles which nature produces un-}, assisted. They include birds and their eggs, edible frogs, fishes, mollusks, some insects and insect products, such as the honey of half a dozen species of wild bees, various crustaceans, more than 30 vegetables, sdlad plants and herbs, the same number of flowers and fruits, seven species of seaweeds and nearly 50 esculent fungi. The campaign is under the direction of Mrs. C. B. Peel and Mrs. Pember Reeves, directors of the women’s servica in the Ministry of Food. The speakers are picked volunteers and are given’: pe- cial instructions before starting on tour.

NEW YORK, May 2%.—The Evening Post, in its copyrighted financial re- view today, says: “Whatever stimulus to a further ad- vance in prices the Stock Exchange may have needed, it found in this morning's dispatches describing the changes made by the Finance Committee of the Sen- ate in the revenue bill as passed by ths House.

PRINT PAPER HEARING IN KANSAS CITY NEXT a Inquiry Begun Here to Be Taken Up There Monday and Re- sumed Here on Friday. The hearing begun here last Tues- day by Attorney-General McAllister before Special Commissioner Revelle to determine whether prices of print paper are unduly high as a result of agreement Letween manufacturers land wholesale dealers, was adjourned yesterday to be resumed in Kansas City, Monday. Officers of the Graham and Missis- sippi Valley Paper companies weré given until next Friday to prepare tables of price quotations, quantities shipped to customers and the names of the latter, which are to be used by the State to determine whether uniform prices were quoted to all. The hearing will be resumed here in the Planters Hotel on that day. — At yesterday’s hearing J. Howard Tompkins, secretary and manager of the Mississippi Valley Paper Co., which is a branch of the J. F. Butler Paper Co. of Chicago, testified his company was organized for the pur- pose of handling part of the business of the Butler company in Missouri. He said the Butler company held 40 per cent of the company’s stock, and audited the books once a year. He said the Butlers were also inter- ested in the Missouri Interstate Pa- per Co. of Kansas City, and that the latter company had an agreement with the company he represented as to territory. He declared neither sold in the territory of the other, which was true of all Butler companies. He declared his company did not confer with the Kansas City company about prices, although it had an understanding to maintain about the same profit. He said this profit was about 20 per cent gross on small business, but when sales were made direct from the mill the profit was about 6 per cent. GERMAN PRINCE FAILS TO GET FEUDAL LAW ENFORCED Sapreme Court Overrules Effort te ‘Have Fief Conferred on British Vassais Forfeited. COPENHAGEN, May %.—Proceedings in the German Supreme Court reveal a curfous attempt by Prince Lippe-Det- mold, ruler of the‘principality of Lippe, to enforce a mediaval feudal law against four ‘“‘vassals’’ who are at th® same time British subjects and sons of a de- ceased English Admiral. This petty sovereign in 199 con- ferred an estate upon two brothers, who, in accordance with feudal practice, swore ‘“‘to ward off evil to the Prince and princely land to the best of their ability and act against his interests neither in word nor deed.”’ The two brothers entered the British army on the otubreak of the war and the Prince endeavored to have their fief forfeited, but the court ruled that the feudal oath of fidelity was second to national obligation and that British vassals in serving as officers were bound thereto by duty to their country and laws of honor. a mem y Tennage Saving on Explosives, LONDON, May 25.—In explanation of the official statement that con- struction of a large é@xplosives fac- tory at Bristol had been stopped on account of the entry of the United States into the war, it was said in the House of Commobdne yesterday that this decision had been reached be- cause the explosives which were to have been manufactured there can now be made in the United States. By shipping the finished product in- stead of the raw materials a saving of tonnage will be effected. Caer Hits Stelen Auto: Man Caught.

TT . The Post-Dispatch Daily Short Story | The Fruits of Labor’ By Sam Hellman ings between swallows of ci- garette smoke. ‘“‘Piffie and rot. Hard work never got anything for any- body except a sore back and a chance to do some more hard work. You won't find any callouses of the hands of our best known coupon clippers.” “How do you expect to learn anything about the business if you don't apply yourself to the game?’’. asked Joe Has- lam. : “Learning this business is the least of my worries. Say, Joe, do you know that out in the yard there are about 100 men who have been applying themselves to this business from 10 to 20 years” When they started they got e700 a day and they are probably getting the same now inlese they’ve put over a strike in the meantime. “I'm sorry to hear you talk that way,” said Haslam with a serious frown. “You know darn well that you'll never get ahead sitting with your feet on the ‘desk, smoking cigarettes, taking a cou- ple of hours for lunch and working only when the boss is looking at you. There’s nothing to that game. How do you think people get ahead, anyhow ?’’ “Front and luck.” retorted Hastings. “Mostly luck. You're always telling me how Schwab rose from a water boy. About the same time he was hauling water there were about 20 kids doing the same thing at the same place. They worked just as bard as he did, By mere luck he was put on some other job where he made good. . “Yes,’’ interrupted Joe,’”’ but how did he make good on the second job? He vorked hard, didn't he’’ “Maybe he did, or maybe he didn’t,” answered tastings. “At any rate, I inow about a hundred guys in the same kind of job who work a whole lot harder. Schwab had the luck and the front.’ "What do you mean by front. rage?’’ “That's only hd IFFLE.” drawled Arthur Hast- Glad a part of it, my boy. Front is more than clothes. It's the ap- pearance of being somebody: It’s that general effect that makes a head waiter who never saw you before give you a seat near the south window. It's that something that makes the mob say, ‘ves, sir,” and ‘no, sir.’ Get me?” “Tl guess so,’ replied Joe slowly. “A fellow with a front, as you call it, is a kind of a cross between a racetrack gambler and a president of a society for the propagation of gold fish—looks dignified and makes a noise like a hand- ful of new currency.” “Good,” exclaimed Arthur, ‘“‘that’s the idea. T'll get you in line for a good job yet. Make ’em think you're too good for a menial job. Make the boss ashamed that he’s got you working -on filling cases. Feel that way yourself and you'll have old Gordon filled with the same idea. See?”’ “No, I dont see. I can't understand how a good appearance might help a young fellow, but this luck stuff of yours is bunk mostly. You've got to deliver the goods these days to get any- where. I don’t thing anybody ever got anywhere just because of luck. There ain't no such fish." “Oh, all right,”’ said Hastings, wearily. “? guess I'll do a little work for a change. I'm about three days behind." For the first time in a week Arthur applied himself for a few moments to the office ledgers. “You write a nice hand, young man,”’ said a voice over his shoulder. A prosperous appearing, well-groomed man stood looking at his entries. He was a stranger to Arthur but his front iinpressed the young man. “Thank you, sir,” said Hastings, arising. “iow long have you been here,” esked the visitor. “About a year.”’ The stranger looked him fully. “Hm, what's vour name?” “Hastings,” sir, The stranger again looked at the ledgers, nodded and walked from the office. » “Who's that guy?” asked Hastings of Hopkins, the auditor. “Don't you know. That's the old man from New York. That's Palmer, the boas of the whole shebang.” Hestings laughed. “No such thing as luck, eh, Haslam. This ie about the first time in a week Ive done any work and the big boss happens in and compliments me.| Did you hear what he said?” Joe nodded. ; “That's luck, ten’t it?’ “Not altogether,” said Joe. “You do write a nice hand. Forget -that! luck stuff. There is no such thing.” Palmer went direct to the office “of Gordon, the local manager. “l need a yottig man in the New York office,” he said abruptly. “It over care- WHEN YOU GO TO LOOK FOR A MAIL BOX BE SURE YOUR OL A ART LN Oe ETE EN OTS HOES ARE G LL RUSA OUT AAD FIND A L& | Box SO THIS (eTTER WILL Go RIGAT CFF — NO, “THAT'S AYDRANT- VCO “TRY “THe NEXT a Hart's ONLY A ‘Licht Pole - VLC —RY ARGUND te CORNER = pis sbe “ =, FIRE ‘ALARM BOK- PLETAYS TO . * > > >’ @¢ J. ‘ — "7. a — a“ = al ap tee _ a ee ee -_——S_ - ee eee _—— = oe ee ——_ will be a fine chance for an ambi- tious youngster.

NCE there was a little cloud float- ing about just at the time when the Sun was bidding good-night one side of the Earth. The Bun was throwing out its wonder- rays of color over the land, and all beheld t were filled with admiration thanking God for all the beauty the World. began to think un- atten | T am real as the Sun, and I will hide him from sight."’ So the little cloud scurried about to all the little clouds floating about and said: “Come, join me, and we will cover the big, shining Sun until we are the only thing that can be seen, and we will make the earth know that we are as real as the Sun-is.” The little cloud gathered one after an- other of the other little clouds, but some of them would not listen, but kept float- ing Closer to the rays of the setting Sun. well Knowing that they would get itn the direct rey of bie glory Wf they were pettest aen@ wetted watll their time sheuld come Ry and bp the itetie cloud had become & ae @eed Ged very Week. oo Gilet wee 4 WIth emt) and hatred of the @ hers of the Gee See | ©) chee the Herth oft & ' =e pewertet «ef feet ' ome eee vor?

Right in front of the Sun it floated, and it was so thick and heavy that the Sun was hidden from the ‘Earth. “There, I told you I was powerful and real,’’ said the Black Cloud, “now you shall behold me and know that I am more powerful than all else, for I can blow out even the Sun.” But hardly had the little Black Cloud said this when it felt itself slowly being penetrated by the beautiful rays of the setting Sun, and, though it, tried as hard es it could to hold itself together and grow blacker and heavier, it could not withstand the powerful rays of the Sun. Slowly but surely the light penetrated the Black Cloud that had been so gure it was real and powerful and the light bursting through showed to the Earth that the little Black Cloud was not real at all, and that the trve light was the reality. In a few minutes the Sun was shining full upon the Earth again, and the little cloud that a minute before had seemed so strong and real was nowhere to be seen. This is the way with Error, which is only a cloud and not real at all.

Not know- ing it was loaded, they whitewashed it and placed it in an ostrich's nest, thinking to play a joke on the boss. The next morning one of the hands came around for eggs, and, finding, as he thought, a large one, he seized on it at once. dn his astonishment at finding it so heavy he dropped it, with the re- sult that it exploded. The man was hurled several yards away, but, strangely enough, beyond lying stunned for a few minutes he was unhurt. “Whew, boys!” he murmured when he recovered his speéch, “that was the stalest I ever ran across.” Opponents of a good cause usvally make more noise than tta advocates. reseed a Seaeneenmeman om ee eee oS eee Glasses on Credit Our gredvuate optemetriet will test your eyes free and fit them evwrrectiy eee —— ee ee —— ee ee ee ee We sometimes wonder where tne rail- road companies get the stuff they make their train callers yell.
