SERVIA MAY RECEIVE A PORT Outlet on Adriatic Promised by Big Allies. Italy Prepared to Defend Swiss Neutrality. London, Sept. 25. The weather conditions which were exceptionally favorable to modern military opera tions during the first six weeks of the war have changed radically and are in the main responsible for the lull pre vailing in all the war areas with the exception of the combined Montene grin and Servian assault on the cov eted provinces of Bosnia and Herze govina. Accompanying the reports of bad weather comes the ominous news of the presence of disease. Hungary has acknowledged an outbreak of cholera among her troops, and while it is de nied officially the same scourge is said to have attacked the Servian troops. General epidemics of milder diseases r-ay be expected in the west ern battle area where the troops on both sides, drenched by a pitiless rain, are lying in flooded trenches. The operations in Alsace-Lorraine are said to -have come to a complete stop on account of snow storms. Kain and floods are reported also from the scene of the Galician operations and probably account for the cessation of the Russian attack on the retreating Austrians. Storm conditions will in terfere greatly with motor transports, j and troops taking the offensive may be greatly handicapped by inability to bring up their artillery. Siege Guns In Mud. Several of the great German siege guns, probably destined .for: use against the fortifications of. Paris, have fallen into the hands of the ene my, having become stuck in the mud when the Germans began their retire ment from the Marne. The French are now digging their artillery out, but the same cause which led to their abandonment may prevent the allies turning them on their former owners. The latest official communication from Paris was even more laconic than usual. It said the battle was developing on the left wing of the al lies, that there was a lull in the 'cen ter, and that attacks on the allies' right had been repulsed. Petrograd reports that Russian troops in pursuit of the Austrians are now within one march of the River Vistula and the city of Tarnow, which is only two marches from Cracow and connected by rail with Budapest and Vienna. Heavy Operations Also In East. Copenhagen reports a great battle In East Prussia, the dispatches de claring also that a Russian army is marching on Breslau. Dispatches from Nish. Servia, re port a continuous advance Into Bos nia, saying also that all the efforts of the Austrians to cross the River Dan ube have been checked after furious fighting. The exploits in Indian wa ters of the German cruiser Emden, which have been likened to the oper ations of the Alabama during the Civil war have aroused keen interest here. But the daring onslaught of this ves sel on Madras is believed to indicate that she is prepared for a spectacular exit from the scene of her triumphs. In the diplomatic field the pressure on Italy to join the cause of the triple entente Increases daily. Servia Seen Reward. The allies point out in case of their virinrv. Servia must be given a port on the Adriatic: and that Bait of Avlona, on which port Italy long has cast hungry eyes, is being held before the Servian government as a possible reward, particularly tr Italy tans to loin the allies. Germany is reported to have requested Switzerland's per mission to send forces through that country. This was refused, and in case Germany moves forcibly to this end. Italy is said to be prepared to de fend Swiss neutrality. Official Russian Dispatch, i Petrograd, Sept. 25. An official an nouncement from Grand Duke Nich ola, commander in chief of the Rus sian forces in the field, says: "On the southwest front the Rus sian troops have taken possession of the fortified position of Czyschky and Foulstyn, which covered Khyroff and other positions In the Radymno re gion (between Jaroslau and Przemysl) taking all the enemy's artillery. The Przemysl garrison has evacuated Bour gade and Medyka and has been re pulsed in the eastern segment, toward the line of forts. "T. I- V. "era no ngniing on the German front." KAISER HAS BAD COLD Emperor William Was Drenched 'tn Trenches Before Verdun. London, Sept. 25. Emperor William is suffering from a severe cold, accord ing to the Geneva correspondent of the Chronicle. He caught it in the trenches before Verdun, where he was drenched by the rain when recently viewing his his I DISEASE HORRORS OF WAR ASK U. S. WOMEN FOB SOCKS London, Sept. 25. As a sequel to War Secretary Earl Kitchener's ap peal to Queen Mary to start a movement to obtain as speedily as possible 300,000 pairs of socks and a like number of abdominal belts for British soldiers at the front, Lady Paget, wife of Gen. Sir Arth ur Paget wrote the following statement for American publica tion. "Queen Mary has appealed to the women of the empire for 300.000 socks. Lady Paget wants to know if the women of America would either knit or send pairs of socks if unable to. help with money." Lady Paget is the daughter of, the late Paran Stevens of New York. She. is president of the American Woman's hospital, and a member of the committee ap pointed by Queen Mary to take charge of the work of providing socks and belts. The committee is composed of four wives of leading British generals, the three others being Lady French. Lady Smith Dorries and Lady Coddington. KAISER WAS AWAY Andrew Carnegie Says Wilhelm Didn't Start War. Damage Done While Ruler Was on His Vacation. New York, Sept. 25. Andrew Carne gie, advocate of international peace, reached New York today aboard the steamer Mauritania with a new version of how the war in Europe was started. "I'll tell you how the war started," said Mr. Carnegie. "The kaiser was on a holiday on his yacht in the North sea. While he was away he received a telegram asking him-to return to Ber lin. When he returned the mischief had already been done. "The kaiser himself is a marvelous man, possessed of wonderful ingenuity. He has done more good for Germany than any other man before him. He has built up a great foreign commerce and a marvelous internal business. The kaiser himself is a peace-loving man. "The trouble was started by the Ger man military caste that rules the country. They are responsible for the war. The kaiser gathered around him a group of men who, unknown to him. acted in concert and in his absence took the action that could not be altered. "As for my own country, I do not know how to thank God that I live in a brotherhood of forty-eight nations forty-eight nations in one union." Mrs. Carnegie and their daughter ac companied the Laird of Skiboo on the trip across the Atlantic. America's duty to the world, Mr. Carnegie added, is to point the way to an everlasting peace "What we want is an interna tional court to stop war. No real friend of lasting peace wants to stop the war now. That would be a short-sighted policy and would be but an armed truce." SUMMARY OF TODAY'S WAR NEWS IN EUROPE Bombardment of the Rhetms cathe dral has been resumed. Russian forces with heaVy siege ar tillery are bombarding Przemysl. The Russian troops have taken pos session of Czyschky and Foulstyn. Emperor William is suffering from a severe cold caught, in the trenches before Verdun. A German Zeppelin dropped three bombs Into Ostend last night, demol ishing the fish depot. j It is claimed that the Austrians and Germans in the fight before Verdun lost 10,000 dead and 13,000 wounded. General Funston has been ordered not to withdraw American troops from Vera Cruz during the next ten days. i The allies have made a short ad vance on the German right wing. There Is little change in the situation in France. The main line of the French forti fications from Verdun to Tout is being battered to pieces by German siege guns. Italy. It Is said, is prepared to de fend Switzerland's neutrality should Germany forcibly attempt to cross the frontier. The Berne government is reported to have declined Germany's request for permission to send her forces through Switzerland. General Stenger of the German army issued the following order to day: "Take no French prisoners. Shoot all that fall into your hands." In an interview today, Andrew Car negie, who has just returned from Europe, said the European war was not started by Kaiser Wilhelm but by tlie German military caste. Russian soldiers have been made to believe that they are engaged in a Holy War and as a result t"-e army is said to be the most formidable in the world. The thirteenth day of the great bat tle of Alsnc to the northwest of Paris lino's the Franco-British and German armies still fighting desperately with the Germans fiercely resisting the gradual advance of the allies oh Gen eral Von luck's flank.

It was announced officially in Bor deaux this afternoon that the Ger mans last night "resumed bombarding the Rheims cathedral. HIS FRAU TO BLAME French Officer With German Cause of British Disaster. Wife New York, Sept. 23. Another Version of the reason why the French delayed in coming to the support of the Britsh when they were hard pressed by the Germans at Mons, was told to her friends in New York today by Miss Eva Gay, of Norwood, Mass.. a former Mount Holyoke college girl, who has been teaching school in Spain and re turned from England Wednesday on theOIympic. Miss Gay said she had been told by English friends, who .had relatives con nected with the British war office that General Joffre, in response to the re quest of General French, the English commander, for reinforcements to ex tricate him from his dangerous position, entrusted orders for the dispatch of such reinforcements to a certain high French officer. When the execution of these orders was delayed an investiga tion was begun and it was learned that the French officer had a German wife. His home in Paris was searched and therein were found military docu ments of a treaonable nature. The officer was immediately court martialied, convicted and shot. Miss Gay said she had been told that the English authorities had refused to per mit the publication of the affair for fear of its effect on the morale of the English troops. A MONTI! LONGER.

That the main line of -the French fortifications from Verdun to- Toul is being battered to pieces by the German siege guns was announced by the war office today. The official report said: "German troops are attacking the entire line of the French fortifications along the French eastern frontier from Verdun to Toul. In an attempt to raise the siege and prevent the de molishing of their forts, already suf fering severely from the German shell fire, the French have made sev eral attacks In force on the German line. All have been repulsed with heavy loss to the enemy, who has been driven back on his main support. "The right wing of the German army has been under severe pressure from the combined British-French forces, but at no point has the enemy succeeded in making an impression on our line. The main chain of de fenses along the Rivers Oise and Aisne is intact and the efforts of the enemy to carry the forts by night attacks have proven futile. "Along the line from our right through the Argonne forest no Impor tant engagements have taken place. East of the Argonne the German lines have been extended through Varrenes, which was taken by a series of bril liant assaults in which the enemy lost heavily. 'In French Lorraine and on the Al sace frontier, fighting continues but there has been little change here from the situation as previously reported. Summed up. it can be stated that while a series of Violent combats have, and are. taking place, at no point Is the battle seemingly approaching a decisive stage. The spirit of the Ger man troops is wonderful They have met the most, desperate attacks with counter-assaults and have inflicted great damage on the enemy." Austrians Bombard Belgrade. Nish,' Sept. 25.- The Austrian forces have again endeavored to cross the Danube at Belgrade and .were re pulsed, as they were on every previous endeavor, the war office announced to day. The attempted advance of the Austrians came after five hours' bom bardment of Belgrade and under the cover of heavy -artiHery fire, it was stated, but was thrown back with heavy losses. rXIFORMS ARE W EAIUNG. London, Sept. 25. The possibil ity of having to furnish new clothes for the millions of soldiers in the war may have to be seriously con sidered if the conflict is prolonged through the winter. Some of the correspondents are already report ing that the soldiers' uniforms are beginning to show wear and tear. It used to be believed that a good uniform should last a campaign. That was not the experience of 187(1. In December. 1 870. German soldiers might have heen seen plod ding through the miry roads in the depth of winter -barefoot, whilst many had -only wooden shoes and linen trousers. When the Tenth corps marched Into Le Mans in January, scarcely a -soldier i was clothed ia the regulation manner. Civilian garments, even French red breeches, were common. INCHES UM THEIR GAINS Advance of Allies In North Pro'rresses Slowly. Victory Bellered Depends on Flanking Movement. O FtfPtiED FQ SIE6E Both Forces liold Their Forti- 'fled Positions. Germans Sacrifice Masses of Men to Gain Points. Paris. Sept. 25. According to infor mation reaching the French capital this morning the Germans are continuing their desperate resistance against the advance of the allies in the north. This advance was first on Roye, 26 miles to the east of Amiens, and then upon Peronne. 20 miles north of Roye. It was only by a continuous raking artillery lire and hard fighting, that the French and British troops were able to con tinue their advance against the vigor ous attacks of the enemy. MM 1 x ue wrc wing oi ine awes now occu pies, a position between the river Ois and the river Somme, which were tra versed by the Germans during their ad vance in the direction of Paris. From this fact, it is. argued here by military observers, that the -Germans will be obliged to concentrate a force in order to protect their right wing, the out flanking of whicli, Paris believes, would mean a decisive victory for the allies. In this fighting, which is in large measure from improvised forts, the al lies have advanced not only on the left, where their maneuvers apparently were successful, but also at other points which were strongly fortified, such as Berry-au-Bac, In the direction of iCra onne. Judging from the reports coining to Paris, the Germans appear to he sac rificing masses of men in the hope of gaining a quick advantage. So strong are some of the positions on each side that Paris believes a long and steady siege at some points Is not improbable. The allies appear to be prepared for this as well as for any other develop ments. .10,000 Dead; 15.000 Wounded. Paris, Sept. 25. The Matin publishes a dispatch from Basel, Switzerland. credited to the Fournier agency, which says that Germans in flight from Lor raine declare that during the attack upon the entrenchd campt at Verdun the Austrian and German artillery had ten thousand dead and 15.008 wounded -Many of the wounded- died where they fell, it was Stated, owing to a. lack of prompt treatment. Bombed Ostend Fish Market. Ostend, Sept. 25. A German Zeppelin last night dropped three boombs over this city, demolishing the ,tlsh depot, but with no casualties. SHIPPING TO GULF Wheat Embargo at Garreston Lifted at Last. Kansas Grain Win Move Is Topeka Order. At last Kansas grain can move freely to the Gulf ports. The Galveston embargo has been lifted. Orders to accept wheat for ex port from Kansas points to the Gulf port have been sent out to Kansas grain centers by J. Koontz general freight agent of the Santa Fe in To peka. The Rock Island also has lifted the embargo, according to an announce ment today. The embargo order was issued August 3. after wheat had been rushed from Kansas to Galveston until the elevators were overflowing, and freight cars were lined up for miles out of the terminals, waiting for a chance to unload. The order was to have been lifted August 6, but was continued until the 12th. Then the European war began and the embargo was continued indefinitely. WALLSTREET RESUMES Stock Exchange- Permits Cautious Re newal of Trading. New York, Sept. 25. Another step toward the resumption of general business in the financial markets was taken today when the stock exchange acting in conjunction with dealers in unlisted bonds and stocks, announced that private purchases and sales on unlisted securities would be permitted when necessary at moderate conces sions from the prices of July 30. It is stipulated,, however, that such transactions must not be harmful to the general situation and must be kept within bounds. This ruling is a fur ther modification of the regulation re cently promulgated by the exchange permitting dealings in unlisted notes also at moderate concessions." All the business to be conducted under this I latest rule, which includes the stocks handled by the curb,", will be super vised by a committee consisting of l stock exchange members, non-member bond dealers and the chairman of the curb market. j -Manhattan Pioneer Dead.

At the direc tion of President Wilson, Secretary Tumulty today wrote a letter to New Jersey Democrats detuning to have them endorse the president for a sec- ona term. Secretary Tumulty's letter was to Edward K. Grosscupr state treasurer of New Jersey. It follows: "You were generous enough to con sult me as to whether the Democrats of New Jersey should at this time en dorse the president for a second term. I had a talk with the president about it and he deeply appreciates the generos ity of the suggestion; but New Jersey is his home state, the men who would act in this matter are his personal friends, and he feels that it might seem as if he were taking advantage of an extraordinary situation now existing to gain some personal advantage thro rush such an expression of confidence by them. "This would be Inconsistent with his whole thought -and spirit, and he shrinks from It as from something that would embarrass him, rather than help him. "He feels confident that you will know the spirit in which he says this; that in urging the Democrats of New Jersey not to do this he is not abating in the least his deep appreciation." It was understood the president de cided not to allow the New Jersey Democrats to endorse him for a second term because he believed it would look as though he were seeking renomina tlon. His attitude, however, was not taken by friends here to mean that he has decided not to accept a renomina tion if it is offered to him. Democrats in other states have en dorsed him for a second term and no objection was made at the White House. As outlined by the president's friends, Mr.. Wilson's position is that he is not considering the question of a second term at this time and future events will determine his stand. The New Jersey Democratic conven tion is to be held next Tuesday and Democrat leaders here say it was ready to endorse the president for an other term. Before Mr. Tumulty's letter to Mr. Grosscup was written, na tional Democratic leaders were con sulted. It was understood the presi dent took the position that if the New Jersey Democrats endorsed him for another term the country might think his candidacy formally launched and that all his future acts were designed to gain votes. r.:orE Kansas frost And Again Gardens Are Spared From Another light frost was in evidence in the lowlands in the vicinity of To peka this morning.

Secretary Gar rison today ordered Brigadier General Funston, commanding the American forces at Vera Cru. not to withdraw during the next ten days. Secretary Garrison announced that the order was caused by a delay in the adjustment of -many details incident to the transfer of funds and the customs house. The cutting of all telegraphic and telephonic communication and the only -railroad between Vera Crus and Mexico City by a force of men under Higenlo Aguilar. a former federal general, oc casioned some uneasiness in official cir cles today, especially in view of the fact that many Americans, who fled from -Mexico City during the revolution, had returned to the capital.

Under the court rules of the receiv ership of the local gas company con struction work which will make neces sary a new investment of capital will be prohibited. "This, of course, means that no new service can be made by the company unless permitted to do so by an action of courts. The ruling will undoubtedly affect a number of residence owners in the city whose houses have not been connected with the gas mains. Gas can be supplied only to those whose residences or business establish ments were connected with the mains of the company prior to the appoint ment of receivers, unless otherwise rated by the courts, according to the receivers of the company. That the gas supply this winter will not be better than last is the conviction of L. O. Treleaven, receiver of the local company. "I would not want to go on record as saying that the gas supply will be plentiful for the coming winter," Said Mr. Treleaven. "On the other hand, it is my judgment that conditions will be little, if any, better than last winter." The receivers for the Kansas Natural Gas company are constructing a new 36-inch pipe line into the Osage fields, and the big wells will be connected up within a few weeks. .It is expected that this supply will make up for the diminished supply from other wells. The wells are producing from 17 to 40 million cubic feet of gas a day. It is expected that additional lines will be built into the Osage field next year.

THE' TOPEITA PAH.Y CTATE rv it-TBJDAY EYEjlCTOtlSPTEMBEIt 25, 191. 0 mi GOT IT CINCHED Couldn't Take Seventh Place Away. From Cooleyklds With a Habeas Corpus or Bat tery of Machine Guns. FRISKED Li:;KS FOR Kill PAIR A Day of Best and Then a Final Whirl at Bears. And Two Donbleheaders Close the 1914 Season. (By Harvy Parsons.) Today is a day of rest for the ball flghters. Having taken two games from the vivisting Links on Thursday, Cooley's highbinders will lay off long enough to gloat while the gloating is good. Tubbysure, the gloats come rath er late on the program, Dut tney are good, honest gloats at that. What they did to Mr. Bryan's townsmen yesterday was a plenty. Everybody played ball. Willie Kappa took three high ones in rabid succession, closine the Link half of the second game in jig time, and the work of the whole field may De juagea by the fact that in this second instance, th nnlv Link score walked in. The wind was blowing from the northwest and Bill Rapps from several directions when Cooley's cherubs met the Lynx for the final two-round bout. Polarbear Weideman and one Scoggins were matched for the rough stuff, and Weideman won by a dog fall. The final result was 2-1 in favor of the home con tingent. Hon La Flam and Rapps did the scoring, and others, including some of the visiting players, assisted mate rially. The viistors' assistance came in the form of some wild tosses et cetera. That was in the fourth. Next period luck was momentarily with the enemy, and they scored one and filled bases for further devilment. .They were nipped in. or just below, the bud, and their raid on the home smoke house was stopped. Again in the seventh they clouded but couldn't rain a drop. There were several remarkable fea tures to this game. In one inning, Tal lion the Silent took a place on the star board coach line and spoke two or three Remarkable! Tallion Coaches! times. He also clapped his hands twice. It is just as well that the season is about to close,, as Tallion might, if per mitted to practice a while, become al most loquacious. In the second game, which was long enough at six and a half innings. Mr. Dashner cast for the Cooleycuba and a Mr. Dessau pronounced Jes'-so threw in the general direction of the plate for the Linques. Dashner started nign. gradually returning to the horizon line as the game progressed. He walked four in the second, forcing the only score the viistors got. Some vurry, vur ry poor umpiring assisted the visitors in getting these walks, but the pitching was not of the bottled-in-bond variety. Slippery Sy scored Cochran and La Flam in the third, and two more runs drizzled over in the next two innings. one of the being staged by Roaring Bill, who scored on a couple of doodle throws and his gall. When the seventh inning arrived, no one demanded a rebate. The ab breviated second part of a double header is one of the most popular feat ures of these tail-end games. In fact, the management might prune half an hour off of the first game without pre' cipitating a riot in the standi Another feature of the afternoon's paw-fawmance was the swatting of Warwhoop LaFlambols. Mr La Flam has been eschewing the swat for some time, but he blossomed out in fine shape. Still another interesting feature was the fearful and wonderful umping of the ump. it Is said that this ump was formerly a barber In Lincoln. Specimens of his barberous work have not been seen In these parts, but it is a consen sus of opinion that, as an umpire he is one of the -classiest barbers on Tip "NORMAN" The NEWEST E.HOW LL A R A it STANDpTC- OF THE TEAMS.

Some of those pres ent seemed to think that this barber person had lost the series to Lincoln In a crap game and was trying to pay his honest gambling debts. It Is evident that a silver plated bat or some other trophy to be presented to the lead swatsman of the Link club, is on exhibition in a Lincoln shop window, and that McGaffigan has measured off space for it on his mantel piece. Mr. McGaft -again desires to do the official scoring. He hates like samhill to see one of the Topeka players get chalked for an error when HE swats it. It is rumored that this McGooflgan was raised a pet and that the Link sport writers continue to keep him on soft feed. NATIONAL LEAGUE. Thursday Results.

Won First by Score of 8 to 1 Second by 4 to 1. FQLLY VC:i FKG.M SCOGGS Dashner Forced Only Bun With Base on Balls. Weideman Gets Best of Game With Star Southpaw. The Cooleyites took advantage of every opportunity Thursday and won both ends of a double header from the Lincoln Tigers. Weideman outpltched Lefty Scoggins in the first game and the Cooleyites won by the score of 3 to 1. Dashner outpitched Count Des sau In the last game and won by the score of 4 to 1. By taking the first game, the Cooleyites broke the crust which Scoggins has held over them all season. This was the first and only time the Topeka club has beaten him and Scoggins is the best left hander in the league. All of Cooley's pitchers worked out poorly and none claimed to be in con dition to pitch excepting -Weideman. He is a youngster, a flend for work and always ready. In glancing over the batting order on the board in right field when he first reported at the grounds, he saw that Scoggins was due to pitch. He expected Hugh Jones would start the southpaw even before he left home at noon time. Cooley did not think there was mucn use in trying to beat Scoggins so he sent Weideman to the block for slaughter. Weideman was not to be slaughtered. He allowed the Tigers eight safe hits but three in the fifth inning produced their only run. He did not allow more than one in any one of the other innings, and with good support he was successful in pi loting his club to victory. The Topekans were the first to score and shoved two runs across the pan in the fourth inning. La Flam bois led off and beat out a scratch hit to Williams, Forsythe sacrificed and the Indian went to third on a wild pitch. Rapps scored him with a dou ble to right, went to third on a balk and scored on Koerner's single. Tal lion and Lattimore flew out and end ed the inning. The Llncolnites got their only score of the game in the fifth inning when Oriet fanned, Blackburn doubled and Scoggins fanned. McGaffigan doubled and Lloyd handcuffed Weideman with a hot liner which allowed him to go safe. Blackburn scored. Weideman went wild In the seventh inning and walked two men while Tal lion helped fill up the bases by kicking Lloyd's grounder. There were two out and Schreiber forced Williams at sec ond, thereby cutting off all chances of scoring. La. Fhunbois and Forsythe singled in succession after two were down in the eighth inning, but Rapps fouled out to Williams and the men died on the bases; Dashner for Topeka and Dessau for Lincoln piloted their respective clubs in the second game. Neither appeared to have much in the beginning, but Dash ner improved, and with his team bunching their hits, they shoved across the second victory of the day. Dessau did not appear to have much more than a uniform and couldn't get away with that even though the Topeka club is in an awful batting slump. Even with all this, the Tigers started off in the lead by scoring their only run of the seven inning contest. With one out, Dashner went wild and passed four men, thus forcing the first one to score. Dessau came up and flew out to La Flambois. Altman, on third, thouarht he could beat the throw to the plate and started, but he changed his mind. He was too late. La Flambois whipped the ball to the plate and Ton neman doubled Altman at third, and this probably saved Dashner. Dashner settled down after that and allowed but three hits. Two came in the fifth in ning and were sandwitched with a free pass, but the Tigers couldn't score. The Cooleyites got a brace of runs in the third inning when Dashner led off and drew a pass, Cochran forced him at second and Cochran went to second when Dessau overthrew first in trying to catch him off the bag. La Flambois drew a pass and both advanced on a wild pitch. Forsythe singled to center field and the two runners scored. They scored another in the fourth in ning when Tallion led off and singled, Lattimore popped out and Tonneman singled. Dashner advanced the run ners with a fielders choice and Tallion scored on a wild pitch. The final score was shoved across the pan in the fifth inning. Forsythe led off with a pass but Rapps forced (him at second, Koerner drew a pass and Rapps scored when Davy Lloyd muffed Lattimore'S grounder and made a bad peg to the plate. Cochran beat out a bunt hit in the last of the sixth, but La Flambois and Forsythe went out and ended the Inning. The Cooleyites didn't need It so what's the difference? The Cooleyites will rest today and point up for the Denverites, who will come Saturday. The Denver and To peka clubs will play four games in two days, two double headers, and in com pleting the series, the 1914 season of the Western league will have been com pleted. The score: LINCOLN.

The news Is received In The State Jow aal building over wires for. this sola pur f With Felix Diaz bobbins up suddenly In New Orleans, further complications la the newest of Mexican muddles may be looked for. Now that Virginia has gone "dry" the acreage there that's been devoted to mint beds can be seeded to more profitable crops. :Man is never satisfied, decVtrj;, the Toledo Blade. If he finds a nickel 'Which he didn't know he hadj iti some obscure pocket, he immediately begins to look for another. It is distressing, too. to the Pittsburg IDispatch, to think of the number of thing' that never happened that we will have to unlearn after the war Is over and the truth comes out. Within a few days, the agonies of the baseball season for the Topeka 'and Wichita teams will be over. Here's hoping that Kansas makes a better showing in the Western. League next year. Of all the weapons of .modern war fare, the submarine appears to be the most efficient and deadly.' And the European armies are probably peeved because they can't be used in land fighting. How the punlshoient .does not fit the .'crime in Kansas. 'A boy who steals a horse goes to the penitentiary for sev en years. So does a. father who com mits an unnatural crime against bis daughter.

Maybe the wish is father to the thought with the German diplomat wbo predicts that a war. between ho iJnited States and Japan is inofar-''of. Or perhaps he has been holding converse with Congressman-Captain' Richmond Pearson Hobson. The refusal of the mine owners and operators In the Colorado strike sone to Join the "strlkers''"in the acceptance of President Wilson's plans for peace is- almost certain to convict them in the high court of public opinion that they are and have beetr1 In the; wrong.

Incidentally, this is also one of the years in which the late Kansas crops haven't had to do battle' with early frosts. Except for the dry weather that came along when, a- considerable part of the corn'; needed rain' most, this has been almost an ideal agri cultural year in Kansas. J. C. Mohler, secretary of the 'Kan' aas department of agriculture, is giving the state the greatest possible assist ance in his preachments that diversi fied farming Is the avenue through which the agriculturist will achieve certain substantial returns; and this variety of farming includes, of course. the maintenance of live-stock on every farm In proportions commensurate with its size. Those who nave followed the trend ef events in Mexico during the past few pears, with the possible exception of MBit of the more faithful of the "watchful waiters"- at Washington, are not surprised that another- revolution has been begun against the new head of the Mexican government. Its ar- rival has been a trifle 'sudden, but it was on the way. all right, and others will follow it as long as conditions sim ilar to those that have prevailed in that unfortunate land for some time continue, or until a Mexican of suffi oiently large caliber to set the .nation in ,order emerges from the fray. And it map be that Villa is that man, INDUSTRIAL HEALTH. The importance of the problem of industrial sanitation is gradually be coming more fully realized. Some employers, Indeed, even yet apparent ly take the ground that, if workmen are willing- to labor under insanitary conditions, it is no Concern of their employers. The New Tork State Fac tory Investigating Commission, which has carefully studied the conditions under which about two hundred thou sand wage-earners work, reports that 'there is a tendency on the part of many employers to economize not only in matters of legitimate expense but also in space, light, air, and certain other safeguards to the health and lives of the workers." The report of the state oard- of health of Louisiana indicates that over 60 per cent of all the manufacturing establishments in the state are in "poor" or "bad" san itary conditions. Most states have no available figures, but New Tork and Louisiana are so far from each other geographically, economically and so cially, that, for lack of better, we may take these two reports as an index of Industrial health conditions generally throughout the United States. On thu whole, says The Journal of the Amer ican Medical Association,- with eacn year employers tend to appreciate more and more the commercial value to them of sanitary working condi tions for their employees. B. S. Warren of the United States public health service points out that the false economy involved in neglect of sanitation inevitably leads to great ly lessened efficiency and is thus real ly expensive for the -employer In the end. The highest efficiency Is possi ble only when the health of workers is favored by good air and light, prop er arrangement of hours of labor and the maintenance of the safeguards of health. With regard to hours of labor par ticularly, some recent experience is valuable as indicating that shortened hours of labor may actually conduce not only to the health of employees but also to greater production. In tbe Engis Zinc Works the hours of labor were cut down from twelve to eight per day, yet the men earned as much and did as much work in eight hours as they did formerly in twelve. Be sides there was a marked decrease In the calls on the sick fund, the men no longer felt the need of stimulation. and sobriety was markedly increased'. Almost the same thing happened at the Zeiss Optical Works in Germany. Abbe kept a careful record for the years when the plant was operating on a nine-hour day. When the work ing day was reduced to eight hours, the record showed the men earned over 3 per cent more than during tbe previous year, the output of the work was increased 3 per cent and the pow er plant was able to shut down an hour earlier, thus effecting a very ma terial saving in fundamental expense. Tije record was for 28 men at an av erage age--or si years,, ana many mr ferent occupations on a piece-work basis were represented in' the ehopi Both employers' and employee need to be convinced of the evident fact that the healthy man Is the most ef ficient and the cheapest employee and that any reasonable expense to main tain him In health is a profitable in vestment. HOW WAR CHANGES TRADE. War completely changes commer cial currents, writes W. E. Aughin baugh in Leslie's. The victor takes the established and profitable trade. leaving to the vanquished the harder lines of bulsness and tbe development of new fields. As an illustration of the truth of this statement, it is only necessary to recall our war with Spain, which country, prior to her defeat. controlled the bulk of the banking and commerce of the Philippines, Cuba and Porto Rico. To these possessions she exported wines, foods; manufactured articles and textiles, and received in exchange their sugar, tobacco arid cof fee. Today tbe United States consumes all of these exports while the require ments of the three mentioned coun tries are supplied by America, who also does their financing. The Napo leonic wars gave to England the strong position she now occupies in the finan cial and export world. Her bankers and shippers, merchants, and manu facturers grasped the opportunity that presented itself then and have held this supremacy for more than a cen tury. Perhaps it was the recollection of what had given England her start in this line which led the London Spec tator to remark recently: "The pres ent war gives Great Britain an excel lent opportunity to capture the export and Import trade of Germany and Austria-Hungary." If England, engaged in the most desperate and expensive war she, or the world, has ever known, with all her enormous resources taxed to the utmost, sees an opportunity tor trade expansion, how much greater is the chance in this line for absolutely neu tral America, populated with keen business men, and provided with un paralleled productive possibilities T Europe generally speaking, and Ger many. and England specifically, have always made every effort to finance municipal Improvements abroad, such as waterworks, sanitation, electric and gas companies, subways, electric and steam roads. The benefits derived from such a source are only too obvious. It gave their engineers and contractors an opportunity to force upon these countries their products and methods and provided permanent employment to many of thler country men, who in return created a demand for articles of home production. As one example of what is going on in this line of municipal work. Chill is now spending about $400,000,000--for fortifications, harder and docking improvements and sanitation,, all of which, is being -t done by Europeans, with European 'money, from Which Europe will reap profit for years to COme. The opportunities for successful busi ness la this line in China and Latin- America are ununited. Joat think of the development possibilities, in Brazil a country larger In area than the United "States and supporting only 20,000,000 people or Argentina with an area almost as large as all of Eu rope, except Russian and Austria Hungary, and a population of about 6,000,000! It is to these countries that overcrrowded Europe must come for elbow room. 1 We have unquestionably been handi capped by the amallness of our mer chant marine. Shipping statistics show that of the goe-ds exported from these shores to Latin America last year. 9t per eent went in vessels fly ing foreign 'flags. So far we have been at the mercy of the European ship owner in the handling of our exports, something which reflects on -us seri ously. .i4 t r know of an American cement house that made a contract in Brazil to supply 35,000 barrels of cement a month- for three years, and after that period 50,000 barrels a month for three years. When their salesman turned in the order, their troubles began. There were no ships here to be had to carry the cargo. Other commodities were more easily handled and paid better rates,, and .besides ships .were few. As a result of these conditions two of the officers of the company spent three months in Europe dicker ing with foreign ship owners, and finally after paying exorbitant freight rates, got sufficient vessels chartered to carry the goods. In no European, country would such a conditlon.be allowed to exist. If in dividual merchants did not, co-operate and advantageously adjust the situa tion, the government could be appeal ed to and would step in, and arrange matters.

Investigation revealed the presence of a huge rattlesnake In the act of pacifying its appetite on the reatnerea nock, several of which it had already killed.'. Members of the household, armed with a shotgun, pitchforks, hoes, etc., made a deter mined charge on the reptile, ..and a lively skirmish ensued. In- the- mWst of tbe conflict, the snake attempted to escape Into a patch of weeds nearby and would have succeeded in making its getaway but for the timely inter vention of a three-legged feline, which had heretofore been considered prac tically worthless, owing to its Infirmi ties. The cat displayed remarkable alertness in chasing the reptile and finally succeeded in bringing it to a standstill, when it was exterminated. Two loads from the shot gun and the use or tne otner farm artillery was re quired to dispatch the enemy. The snake was of enormous size, possessed nine rattles ana a button and snowed, remarkable fighting qualities. Mrs. L. T.

He is a bachelor of about 35 with no known matrimonial intentions, so naturally I was surmised. "I'll tell you how it is," he explained readily. "My cousin is on here for the summer with her two youngsters and the other day she left me alone with the little girl, and by thunder, I could not think of a thing to say to the youngster nice little kid, too. I let her fool with my watch for a while. but after that palled I hadn't a card to nlav. She k.nt Ajfrfne- me to tell her a story and I didn't know one.

I heartily agreed that T did. And not only for him but for anyone wbo has so far forgotten the language of childhood as to feel abashed before a child. Tou never know when you may have to spend a half hour with one of these embarrassing creatures, Mr. Bachelor or Mrs. Childless," so why not be prepared Have a story or two on hand, or a few simple parlor tricks.

She etarted te remove, her straight sin apron and the cap -that covered her thick golden braids, i when she heard a anoca at tne kitchen door. She opened It impatiently. What a nuisance peddlers were! But the man who stood there:: had neither brooms, baking .powder.-.nor patient oust pans to sell. a tramp!" Gret chen labeled him; mentally. Then she caught a glimpse of a very clean though worn white collar above the edge of hgi thin coat and changed her Buna. 1 T J He lifted his hat. That settled-It! He was no tramp,- if he did wear a heavy beard, and -bad come to the back door. But his first words were, "I am very cold and hungry. Will you pleas give me something to eat" It was an Inopportune time. Break fast was over and the stove was cold. Besides, she .wanted to dress and go out. Just then an icy gust swept tbe cor ner. Gretchen shivered. "Come in," she said, impulsively. "But the kitch en is cold. Come into the dining room." The stranger held his hands grate fully over the blaze while Gretchen busied herself in the kitchen. Then she spread a lunch cloth upon the ta ble in the dining room, laying out a clean napkin, silver and dishes. She even, set a little vase of flowers near his plate. She could not have tpld by she did it. q.t is too bad to trouble you." He spoke slowly and with an effort.

Suddenly a figure flung itself furious ly at the man with the gun. There was a sharp report and both men went down with a crash. Then she quickly slid to the floor in a dead faint. When she came to her senses on the ball floor, there was a pillow un der her head. Her mother was at the telephone calling for the police, and her tramp with the gun In hie own hand was daring the would-be burglar to move. Gretchen ashamed of her weakness sprang to her feet. "Oh. mother. -"My darling." There was little time for explana tion, except that hearing the shot and finding the door locked, her mother had run to the back door. When the two policemen bad gone with the burglar between them, Gretchen turned gratefully to her res cuer, and held out her hand. "Tou are a very brave man. I cannot thank you enough for what yon have done. Mother, this gentleman has been 111 and unfortunate. Won't you ask him to stay awhile? It is very cold out side." Mrs. Van Tyne was as tactful and ouick of perception as her daughter. Besides she had noticed the set table In the dining room. "The gentleman," however, seemed scarcely to hear what the two women were saying. He was looking anx iously toward the dining room. There is a portrait a painting in your dining room, ladles.

A maid, this time, took his card to Gretchen, who was alone. "Sir Otis Grenarde!" she read in surprise. When she came into the room she could not believe that this well-dressed man with every mark of success could be her tramp. After the correct thing to say had been said, Sh Otis handed Gretchen a check for her mother. "I am Eng land's agent. I am happy to say. in making some recompense for the loss of the picture.

They went first to the room where they had always eaten, and found a good hot dinner on the table, which they hastily ate. Then they felt more courageous, and went downstairs. In the hole they could see the chest, which had been opened, and quantities of gold In-it was scattered along the ground to the door and along a path around the house, as though some one had dropped it as they carried it along. The boys followed the shining tracks and came to a hole in the ground like a cistern, and when they looked in there was old Pumpkin Head tying at the bottom with gold all around him. One of the boys climbed down and found that their master was dead. He had come upon the place where he la tended to Tilde Ms treasure before he bad expected; and fallen in- on hie head,' arid there he was dead among the gold he had made the boy work so hard to get.

Reilly are the only two of last year's letter men who have returned. The former has been switched from halfback to fullback; the lattler will continue to perform at end. Devitt and Green are making a strong bid for backfield berths. Quar terback holds out a keen competition between Babbitt and Barry. The line will be comparatively light.

WILLIS EXFLAI'lS IT. Former Superintendent Orphans' Home Tells of Conditions. LACID CEUTROOPS Beinforeements for Allies' Line on Field. Destruction of Bridges Say Herald German Retreat. Edward C. Willis, former superin tendent of the orphans' home at At chison, has taken exception to some of the items quoted in the 1913-14 biennial from the home and denies that the improvement pointed out by Mrs. Burns, the present matron. -were made without an Increased use of funds. Both Willis and Harry C. Bowman, a member of the board of control, have recently explained the orphans' home report. When the report was filed by Mrs. Burns Is showed deplorable conditions in the home when she became matron unsanitary conditions, damp, water soaked walls with no plasterng, bath tubs upside down, filthy, dirty river water for drinking and domestic use; and a generally bad physical condition of the plant and equipment. These con ditions, the report recited, have been corrected. Now Mr. Willis has pre pared a statement, in his discussion of affairs in the home, Willis says: "The amount appropriated by the legislature of 1911 available for the fis cal year ending June 30, 1913, was $42,084.66, while the amount appropri ated by the legislature of 1913 for the fiscal year ending June '30, 1914, was $48,500.00. These two legislatures also provided for a coal fund and authorized expenditures from the fee fund. A to tal of $45,277.73 was expended from state funds for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1913, while a total of $53,268.55 was expended from state funds for the fis cal year ending June 30. 1914. An addi tional amount of $16,507.84 was expend ed from the private Dell estate fund for improvements during the fiscal year ending June 30, 1914. "In my request for appropriations to the legislature of 1913 I set out all of these needed Improvements. The ways and means committee of the house had the board of control ob tain an opinion from the attorney gen eral as to whether the improvements listed by me could not be made out of the Dell bequest, which had just been turned over to the board by the ad ministrator. The attroney general ruled that this private bequest could be used for these improvements and the legislature did not make an ap propriation for the same. The amount expended from the Dell fund, $16, 507.84, should be added to the $53, 268.55 expended from state funds, making a total of.$69,776.39 expended for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1914, while $45,277.73 was expended for the fiscal year ending .June 30, 1913." J London.' Sept. 25. It was learned this evening that additional British troops have reached the scene of the fighting in France. They are reported to have been landed at Ostend and Boulogne and to be supported by a new French army sent north from the mobilization center in the south. It to this army upon which the allies are now believed to be depending to complete-the Isola tion of the German right and to envel op the armies of Von Kluck and Von Buelow. There was an air of great expectancy about the war office tonight and a gen eral feeling that the beginning of the end of the battle of the Aisne now is in sight. Whether the fresh .troops are the Indian troops, who were reported to have been sent through the Sues canal, is known only, to the military authori ties. It is considered highly significant, however, that the Duke of Westminster end the Duke of Marlborough, both on the nersonal staff of Sir John French, arrived here today with important dis patches for Earl Kitchener. Imme diately after they arrived the secre tary of war held a conference with the premier. ReDortn received here late this after noon also indicated that the Germans were planning a retirement from west ern Belgium. They have blown up a number, of bridges west of Liege that might' be of strategic value to. the enemy. CALL FOR REPUBLICANS Pnlmotor Appeal Sent Out to Instill Interest in Campaign.

Professor Clark's act consists of trained animals, including dogs, ponies, goats and chickens (poultry). The war pictures showing scenes on the European battlefields is a good picture.

Trm T0PT33A DAILT C7A'-J JCu Hi- T v 1 WOMAN'S UAR IS WAGED HERE Suffrage Invasion of Kansas Arouses a Scrap. Blistering Words From Mrs. Anna- Howard Shaw. COM G. LEWIS N DEFENSE Says National Suffrage Does Not Recognize Invaders. President Wilson Attempts to Keep Peace in Family. Miss Trax .and Mrs. Latimer, who are planning a state wide campaign in Kansas against the Democratic na tional administration on account of its tand in opposition to nation wide suffrage, have no credentials, author ity or recognition from the National Suffrage association, according to Anna Howard Shaw of New York. This bit of informatoon is contained in a telegram to Mrs. Cora G. Lewis from Mrs. Shaw. With the publica tion of the telegram, Mrs. Lewis to day submitted to one of the most blis tering interviews ever given by a pub lic woman in Kansas and brought to question the good purpose of both Miss Trax and Mrs. Latimer. The theory that women fight best among themselves is given weight in the interview which Mrs. Lewis ap proved today when told that Miss Trax and Mrs. Latimer were on their way to Kansas and would work under directions of the congressional union. Not only did Mrs. Lewis, who is a member of the state, educational ad ministration board, question the sin cerity and good purpose of the two suffrage missionaries to Kansas, but ahe delivered an arraignment against Mrs. Oliver H. P. Belmont of New Tork that will probably travel back to Broadway and Mrs. Lewis indicated that she rather hoped it might. "I notice by the morning papers that the fighting suffragettes. Miss Trax and Mrs. Latimer, who have ar rived in Kansas City to create politi cal discord in Kansas announce that they are under the protecting 'Para dise Feather' of Mrs. Oliver H. P. Bel mont," said Mrs. Lewis with the most genuine display of scorn. Then this for Mrs. Belmont: "Mrs. Belmont," sarcastically re marked Mrs. Lewis, "Mrs. Belmont is the only woman in America who is prominent in the advancement of suf frage for women who is a pronounced militant. Militancy and aggressiveness must have distorted her sense of val ues. Otherwise she would not send women into a state where the congres sional candidates on all three tickets are pledged to national suffrage, when there is such need of work for the edu cation of states whose men are not yet developed highly enough to be Just to women." Mrs. Belmont may take that state ment into her boudoir and think it over. Miss Trax and Mrs. Latimer may wire the Kansas woman's greetings to the New Tork militant. Mrs. Lewis truly Kansan and with a mind of her own as to the affairs of men and women cares not. National Administration Policy. After she had expressed her opinion of Mrs. Belmont's judgment. Mrs. Lew is told' of the attitude of the national administration toward the rights of women as she saw it. "I remember the late wife of our president, winsome and sweet as a girl, wearing about her the atmosphere of womanliness and culture," continued Mrs. Lewis. "Then I think of all the desolation her death must have brought to her husband's heart. It seems to me an unseemly thing for militant women to begin the persecution of the presi dent. That is all it means. Mr. Wilson has offended certain women. They are too narrow to be considerate of those who honestly differ with them and they will spare no expense to break him. "Their effort is to tie his hands, even though he has vast problems concerning the peace and happiness of our own country and is really the conservor of the peace of nations of a world wide war.. Yet they do not hesitate to come here and make a political fight on the men who will stand by him in the com ing year. Such unseemly conduct will not meet with a warm reception in Kansas, where women have the dignity and womanliness which never allows them to be vicious. "There has been in the state much criticism of the national association because -of the work of these women in bringing suffrage into politics. That is unfair for the national or ganization is in no way to blame." Telegram from Mrs. Shaw. Then Mrs. Lewis produced a tele gram from Anna Howard Shaw under date of Sept. 23.' The telegram read: "Mrs. Cora G. Lewis, Topeka, Kan.: "National suffrage does not endorse the congressional union's plan of working against Democratic party. The congressional union is not a mem ber of the national association and has no connection with it.' The national association is strictly non-partisan and opposed to working against Dem ocrats or members of any other party. As such you cannot state too strongly that I as well as other national offi cers oppose policy of congressional union. Mrs. Latimer and Miss Trax do not represent the National Suffrage association. "ANNA HOWARD SHAW." Mrs. Lewis still believes that the cause of national woman suffrage will find a response in the heart of the president. "I cannot help thinking," said Mi's. Lewis, "that when Mr. Wilson is able to get from under the crushing weight of the problems of state, war and. bus iness which have hung over him like a grim cloud, and the right approach is made to him, he will be for suf frage. "He will be for suffrage," said Mrs. Lewis, "for his wife's sake." The interview from Mrs. Lewis is the first attempt of the Democrats to block the fight which Miss Trax and Mrs. Latimer plan to wage in Kansas. With the official message from Anna Shaw, the Democrats will ask Kansas women to refuse the congressional union representatives recognition since they do not come with creden tials from the national organization. Further, it will be urged, the con gressional and 'senatorial nominees of all parties in Kansas are pledged' to work for the ballot for women in the nation. IN PUBLIC SCHOOL Vice Could Be Forestalled by Early Segregation Superintendent Refused to Re lease Assailant's Daughter. Says Superintendent Ella Flagg Young of Chicago. Chicago, Sept. 25. If the public schools had the-means and machinery to deal with the individual and physical defectives as soon as they were recog nized by the primary teachers, a great share of later vice and crime could be avoided, according to a report to the board of education by Mrs. Ella Flagg Young, superintendent of schools, and Mrs. Gertrude Howe Britton, who have just toured Europe, investigating crime prevention: They reached the following con clusions: V A large percentage of social misfits have previously been recognized as mis fits during their school life. Because the school is the most in fluential factor in character formation, the social failures are essentially a vital school problem. The facilities for determining in each case the exact condition and proper treatment of the misfits usually are in adequate. "All who have had experience in deal ing with problems of child crime," the report continued "recognize that the real trouble in each case dates to the time when for some reason the child begins to be irregular in his school work. Very few children who march steadily forward in their school work ever get into serious trouble.". ATTACKJK1 CIDDLE J. A. Glazier of Hutchinson Strikes at Asylum Head. J. A. Glazier, of Hutchinson, made an attack upon Dr. T. C. Biddle, superin tendent of the state hospital for the insane, Thursday afternoon because of the tatter's refusal to release from the asylum Glazier's daughter, Mrs. Annie O'Neil. Attendants interfered before Dr. Biddle was injured and Glazier was taken to the county Jail. Mrs. O'Neil was brought to the asy lum in June. Her condition was not serious, but she was brought here to be improved. Last week, Wilson O'Neil. the woman's husband, came to Topeka and was informed that his wife could be released if hewished It- .O'Neil said that he wanted her kept there until after he had completed his fall plant ing in Reno county, hospital officials say. Glazier has been in Topeka all week, trying to get the release of his daugh ter. He has held consultations with, members of the state board of control and Probate Judge MacFarland. -Robert Stone, the Topeka lawyer, was se cured to assist him. Early Thursday afternoon Glazier went to the state hos pital, when his unexpected attack with a club on the superintendent occurred. E. B. Stotts, the steward of the asylum, suspected something was up when Glazier, who is 64 years old, entered the grounds with a club. He stayed near the office of Dr. Biddle while Glazier was there. Glazier is alleged to have struck at Dr. Biddle with his club; narrowly miss ing him. The two men grappled and then the attendants. Dr. John Cooper and Mr. Stotts interfered. TREAT All ALIKE. No Distinction Between Nationalities in Bordeaux Hospitals. Bordeaux. Sept. 25.i "Treat the Ger man wounded the same as our own,' said President Poincare, during a re cent visit to the hospitals here. That his recommendation is being cameo out to the letter was seen by the cor respondent today at the Bordeaux high school which after weeks of hard work' has been converted into a 700 bed hospital. Here are sixty of the worst cases of German wounded, most of the wounds having been received in the battle of .he Marne. In charge of the hospitals is- an American, Dr. Melville Wastermann of San Francisco, and a Bordeaux doctor who has given up a large part of his extensive private practice in order to devote himself to aiding the wounded. Dr. Wastermann and the Bordeaux physician are being assisted by a well known Dresden surgeon. Eight members of a German hos pital corps who surrendered to the French and were requested to care for the wounded and came on' here with them, soon will be sent back to Germany, as provided for by the Geneva convention. LEFT BABY BEHIND. Ktlicl Roosevelt Derby Goes to France to Norse Soldiers. New York, Sept. 25. Theodore Roosevelt's youngest daughter, Ethel, wife of Dr. Richard Derby, will nurse the wounded in the hospitals of Paris and her husband will be a surgeon in the French city.

The Cunard liner Caronia, now an auxiliary British cruiser, painted steel gray and with big guns showing fore and aft, steamed off Sandy Hook this morning. For three days the Caronia has been in this vicinity but todav was the first time, that observers ashore had seen her. Petrograd, Sept. 25. After the man ner in which Japanese soldiers proved so superior to -Russians in the Russo Japanese conflict, it is difficult, no doubt for people to understand the seemingly wonderful improvement in the effectiveness of the Russian war machine as being demonstrated in the present war. Russia has benefited vastly by her mistakes in the Russo-Japanese war; the fighters in the rank and file know what they are giving up their lives for for the Slav race; the priests have worked the army up to a pitch of re ligious fervor and enthusiasm by mak ing war, for Russia, a holy war. Acting under orders from the Holy Synod in Petrograd, the entire priesthood of the country for weekB before the -war broke out, have devoted almost their sole at tention toward stimulating a zeal for war. The peasants, it must be remem- bered, are very largely under the in- fluence of their spiritual advisers. These priests in Russia are of the people, and they ,feel ..1th the men in the ranks to a degree astonishing to western onlookers. Altogether an im- j pressive spectacle this Russia under arms. They do not look like barba- rians, these soldiers of the czar; they are mostly simple-minded, docile peasants, full of religious .ardor which will turn them into fanatical, fighters when the decisive moment arrives. They may be slightly inferior in training, but they are the best raw material of any country in Europe, and the hard training of the war will transform them into a host of the most formidable troops in the world. Telegraphing from Petrograd the cor respondent of the Havas News agency says: Among the engagements pre ceding the capture of Jaroslau by the. Russians, that at Sadova, on the Vis tula river, was the most important. This fight lasted seven days without in- terruption. The Austrians were en-;: trenched on the summits of some wood- ed hills rising from a broad and un sheltered plain. The Russians were forced to charge across this open plain against a raking' machine-gun fire. Their losses were tremendous and they were repulsed many times, until finally their .guns found the range; then their charge was successful. AT THE THEATERS.

Max Bloom, iiiv "The Sunnr Side of Broadway," presented at the Novelty last night, is a true comedian. He ap peared as Abov. -ef. Hebrew extinction. and his -actions -produced- laughs, not inaudiable snickers nor ladylike gig gles, .but merry.; jfna'ha'.'" There b we been Hebrew comedians galore in To peka within the last two years, and Max Bloom is one of them deserving of laurels. In is ridicule of present drama, a mockery of a war piece aid also of Uncle Tom's cabin, he was a his best. Bloom was svipported well in the tab. Inez Bellaire, one of the leading women, sang well and was a sweet whistler. Alice Shea, as Argentine dancer, was striking and her excellent version of the tango and other mod ern dances, as she was dressed spar ingly, received several encores. Johnny Gilmore was the Fenian of the com pany and was second to Bloom in deal ing out comedy. A two-man horse came into the show for the first two acts and this horse belonged to the f unmaker class. Collectively, it was a mighty good looking-ballet, all of the chorus birls being about the same size and dancing and singing in harmony. Each act had special scenery. Hip. The Hippodrome offers the Boun dary Rider at its matinee today to con tinue for two days. The Electric JFea ture Film company are featuring Thurlow Bergen, a talented dramatic actor, in this thrilling five act silent drama of the revenue service and the north woods. Revenue officers follow a Chinaman who is suspected of smug gling opium in hopes of locating an international smuggling band. A thrill ing tale: concisely and tersely trld.

Conditions. ctebdeht co-operatio:i Necessary to Development of f Industrial Interests. Present Unbridled Competition L Means "Monopoly. Marion. II. Sept. 25. Addressing an audience here today, the second and last of his Illinois campaign in behalf of Raymond Robins, Progressive can-'' dldate for United States senator, Col-, onel Roosevelt dwelt on the labor fea tures of the Progressive platform, and paid particular attention to advocacy of the initiative, referendum and re call. Speaking of business conditions he repeated that unbridled competition means monopoly. The efficiency of indusrial combinations must be re tained, he said, but their evils, must' be eliminated in a manner fair to all. "tlnbridled competition Js the father of monopoly," he asserted. Illustrat ing the relations of the government to business the colonel referred to a newspaper article he had read. '"It stated," said he, f'that it would, be no use for American business men to go into the business undertakings for the moment abandoned by the Germans because of the war, for after the war the German government would put itself behind the German business men, exercising a proper control over them, but encouraging them so far as was possible, while the American government would not be behind American business men and would, if anything, be antagonistic to them. We must alter completely this type of attitude if we-are to meet on equal terms the trained efficiency -of foreign competitors in the great world of business today, r The government must assume an attitude of hearty encouragement and co-operation as far as all legitimate business big; or little is concerned. But it must ac company this attitude 'With rigid in sistence upon the rights of the wage worker for his full share In the bene fit that comes from successful busi ness." Republicans Row Up Stream.

He declared that It to be cause of the existence of the Progres sive party that woman suffrage exist in Hltnoia: and this, he said. wOl oo more to solve the problem of toe mod ern city than anything else that could be devised. Ha continued: "We Progressives are trying to give to the plain men and plain women of the nation the power to run their own government. That to why we are try ing to secure the initiative, the refer endum and the recall. "It to Idle to aay this is an assault on representative government. On the contrary, it represents an effort to make government really represent you, then yon will never have to use the initiative, the referendum and the recall. In such case there- can be no possible objection from any standpoint to placing these measures' on the statute-books. They will only recall a misrepresentatlve. They won't Initi ate and enact a law which their rep rofutntattves are willing to give them; khey will only Initiate and enact a law if those who snouia De xneir represen tatives misrepresent them and deny them the right to have such a law. They won't refuse by: the referendum to endorse a law which their repre sentatives have passed, unless the so called representatives have in every fact proved not to be representatives of the people behind them. The ini tiative, referendum and recall are measures to., make our government really and not merely nominally a representative- government. It our op ponents do not believe In democracy let them say so frankly; let them say that the people are incompetent to govern themselves, and that the boss acting through, the boas-chosen exec utive, the boss chosen. legislature and the boss-chosen judge, shall govern us; but if they believe we can govern ourselves then they cannot with good conscience oppose legislation to reduce that theory in a downright action. Representative government gave you of Illinois Mr. Lorimer. Representa tive government gave you the street railway systems and gas franchises which gentlemen such as Messrs. Sherman and Sullivan have at differ ent stages of their career supported." Outlines Program. Colonel Roosevelt outlined a. part of the Progressive program as follows: M "Effective legislation looking to the prevention of industrial acciaents, oc cupational diseases, overwork, involun tary unemployment, and otner injurious effects Incident to modern industry. "The fixing of minimum safety and health standards for the various oc cupations, and the exercise of the pub lic authority of state and nation, in cluding the federal control over inter state commerce and taxing power to maintain such standards. "The prohibition of child labor. "Minimum wage standard for working women, to provide a living scale in all Industrial occupations. "The prohibition of night work for women and the establishment of an eight hour day for women and young persons. "One day's .rest in seven for all wage workers. "The eight hour day in continuous twenty-four hour Industrie "The abolition of the convict contract labor system; substituting a system of prison production for governmental consumption only; and the application of prisoner's earnings to the support of the dependent famines. TwfW 'Publicity as to wages, hours and conditions of labor; full reports upon industrial accidents and diseases, and the opening to public inspection of all tallies, weights, measures and check systems on labor products. "Standard of compensation for death by industrial accident and injury and trade diseases which will transfer the burden of lost earning from the families of working people to the industry and thus to the community. X Insurance and Trade Schools. "The protection- of home life against the hazards of sickness, irregular em ployment and -old age through the adoption of a system of social insur ance adapted to American use. "The- development of the creative la bor power of America by lifting the last load of illiteracy from American youth and establishing continuation schools for industrial education under public control and encouraging agri cultural education and demonstration in rural schools. "The establishment of Industrial re search laboratories to put the methods and- discoveries of sctenece at the ser vice of American producers. "The organization of the- workers, men and women, as means of protect ing their Interests and of promoting their progress." Continuing he said: "Bit by bit we are battering the vari ous measures to achieve these ends through hostile legislature. In the end we shall accomplish all we have thus outlined, and then we shall go on and accomplish much more along the same general lines" BOSTON IS BUSY.

The first party is almost sure to be remembered as one of the best, for after the quietness of the summer season a pin tea has all the attraction of a novelty, and the people radiate the enthusiasm they feel after resting and wearing off the fag of the previous season. Moreover, nearly all the gowns are fresh and new. Added to this was the fact that the hostess and three of her receiving friends are prospective brides, about whom much of the social interest of the sea son centers. Besides the scene was set in a golden afternoon, such as society delights in to stage its first parade. Receiving with Mrs. Southwick were her sister-in-law, Mrs. Frank South wick, whose marriage was an event of last June, Miss Dorothy Scott, Miss Lillian McGoff and Miss .Corinne Cos ton.

The state receivers of the Kansas Natural Gas company have decided to eliminate one form of waste by com pelling all distributing companies to pay for the gas they use on a meter 'basis. At present the distributing com panies pay for their gas on a per centage basis, the percentage being fig ured on the basis of the receipts of the local companies for the gas these com panies sell to consumers. Under this arrangement it makes no difference to the distributing companies whether their mains leak or not. T. S. Salathiel, attorney for the state receivers, has outlined the plan to the public utilities commission, and will ask consent of the commission to the abro gation of the old contracts.. According to the attorney, while To peka consumers have shivered and the breakfast eggs refused to cook, on ac count of a shortage of gas, nearly half of the available supply of gas for To peka has been leaking away through defective mains.

There is one sure way that has never failed to remove dandruff at once, and that is to dissolve it, then you destroy it entirely. To do this, Just get about four ounces of plain, common liquid arvon from any drug store (this is all you will need), apply it at night when retiring; use enough to moisten the scalp and rub it in gently with the lin ger tips. Bt moraine most, if not all. of your dandruff will be gone, and three or four more applications -will completely dis solve, and entirely destroy, every single sign and trace of it, no matter how much dandruff you may have. You will find all itching and digging of the scalp will stop instantly and vour hair will be fluffy, lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and look and feel a hundred times better. If you value your hair, you should get rid of dandruff at once, for nothing re st roys the hair so quickly. It not only starves the hair and makes it fall out. but it makes it stringy, straggly, dull, dry. brittle and lifeless, and everybody notices It.
