Action Regarded as Temporary Withdrawal From Conference. ORIENTAL CLAIMS ARE UP Paris, April 22. Japanese and Chinese representatives presented their rival territorial claims at this afternoon's session of the "big four." Premier Orlando was again ab sent from the meeting, apparently clinching the belief that the Ital ians have withdrawn from the peace conference, pending action on the Adria'tic question. Paris, April 22. The Italian "cri sis," apparently left suspended in mid air, was expected to be superseded to day by a Japanese "crisis. The Japanese program, taken up by the "big four" this afternoon, paral lels that of Italy in that both nations base their claims on secret treaties enacted before the United States en tered the war. Japan wants Kiao Chau and certain concessions in the Shantung peninsula seized from Germany during the war. The Chinese contend that these terri tories should be returned to them, as they were acquired by Germany yir tually thru force. As in the case of Italy's claims, the American delega tion leads the opposition to recognition of secret treaties giving Japan-this territory, contending they were nulli fied thru acceptance of the armistice terms. Orlando Still Absent. Paris, April 22. Vittorio Orlando, the Italian premier, was absent this morning when deliberations were re sumed at the Paris White House. President Wilson and Premiers Lloyd George and Clemenceau were present. The president and the two premiers went again into the Japanese ques tions presented by Baron Makino and Viscount Chinda, which were taken up when the deadlock over the Adri atic question was reached yesterday. Italians Have Withdrawn? In view of the fact that both Or lando and Foreign Minister Sormino failed to attend the meeting of that body yesterday afternoon, it was as sumed the Italians had temporarily withdrawn from the conference. While no official statement -was forthcoming regarding he status of Italy's territorial claims, it was under stood the deadlock continued and that the Italians had stood aside, willingly or otherwise, to permit consideration of problems. Japan's demand for ratification of her occupation of Kiao Chau and the Shantung peninsula presents a situa tion paralleling the position of Italy. Presentation of the Japanese claims has been deferred from day to day since last week owing to the pressure of the Italian question. It was an nounced last night that if the Italians did not appear before the big four to day. Viscount Chinda would be heard on the Japanese claims. Japanese representatives conferred informally with the Chinese delegates yesterday regarding amicable settle ment of the question which involves territory that is admittedly Chinese and which was to be awarded to Japan under a secret treaty similar to the pact of London on which Italy's de mands are based. It was admitted in Japanese circles that this conference failed of its purpose and that the mat ter must now be decided by the "big four." Fear Italian Revolution. Meanwhile, unofficial information received in Paris tended to show that Orlando and Sonnino are guided in their attitude largely by the internal situation at home. It was reported j that conditions there are such that a I revolution, efther Bolshevik or repub lican, in iin.t?iy suuii. iiainuuiiun fa cilities are poor, the coal supply is greatly reduced and the whole nation is known to be uneasy.

Because one of their number weighed 225 pounds, three prisoners in the county jail here were forced to dig all night j to gam their freedom. The three Harry Wilson, Robert r erguson, ana K.sseit vogei were still at large at noon today. Wilson, the fat one, according to the prisoners who did not avail themselves of the opportunity to get away, awed them with revolvers, while his com panions made the opening big enough for him to get thru. The 110th Engineers arrived In New ,York harbor on the transport Von Steuben, Saturday. It is one of the fightins units dear to the hearts of Kansatis and is a strictly Kansas organization with the real Kansas spirit and fight and courage.

Rules Suspended in One Prov ince Owing to Publie Outcry. London, April 22. The law provid ing for the nationalization of women in northeast Russia, has been suspend ed in one province as the result' of popular outcry, according to infor mation reaching London from Stock holm. The commissary of Vladimir has by decB.pvioiiltl-aeouraitte4 of women who are to inquire into the operations of the" law1 and make a re port with the least possible ely. His action has been approved by the local soviet. The Krasnaya Gazeta' publishes an account of the results of nationaliza tion. The system provides that every girl on reaching the age of 18. must register her name in the bureau of free love, after which she is com pelled to select a partner from among men between 19 and 50 years old. The law led to lamentable confusion, says the Gazeta in "judicial notions as to personal inviolability." Girls Were Carried. Off. N A few days after the soviet decree, which women very generally ignored, two men known to nobody arrived in the town and seized the two daughters of ft well known non-bourgeois com rade, declaring they had chosen them as wives and that the girls, without further ceremony, must submit as they had not observed the registration rule. Comrades Rablonovsky and Gvriskin, who sat as judges on the claim, de cided the men were t right and the girls were carried off. They have not since been heard of by the village folk. This, says the Gazeta. was done In the name of the nationalization of wo men, i j Whole Villages Raided, j .jj Many other instances of the fantas tic operation of the law, not to speak of its inhumanities, are cited by the Gazeta. Knthusiasts for nationaliza tion, naturally all males, raid whole villages, seize young girls and demand proof that they are not over 18. As this proof is difficult to give many of the girls are carried off and there have been suicides and murders as a result. In the town of Kovrov, a campaign without parallel since the Trojan war was waged between the vengeful rela tives of an abducted nationalized girl and her prosecutors. In this town the register of nation ized women was opened on December 1, but up to J-'ebruary 1 last, only two women, both over 40 and neither of whom had ever been married, regis tered themselves as willing to aecept the first husband tha the state sent along. Mme. Arkadieff on Committee. On the committee to' revise the na tionalization decree or to recommend its complete abrogation is Mme. Vera Arkadieff, a Bolshevik who command ed a detachment of women, soldiers during the recent operations against Admiral Kolchak's army at Perm. She has been twice wounded. 3 The Krnsnaya Gazeta, trnntilated. means lied (.Mzette. It is a Bohsheviki newspa per published In 1'etrognMl. HOGS $21 AT ST.

Washington, April 22. "A distinc tive tone of optimism distinguished the scores of telegrams that arrived at the treasury department today," said an efficil review of the opening day of the Victory liberty loan campaign. Among the comments from chairmen of federal reserve district organiza tions indivative of the reports in gen eral were these:. Kansas City "Four counties in Tenth district unofficially oversubscribed. Sev eral counties In Kansas and Missouri, borne- of 35th division, planning reach quota by time division reaches bmne." Cleveland "Advanro pledges to the loan much greater than in any previous cam paign." Philadelphia "Xot one-tenth as much enthusiasm ever has been evidenced In connection with a loan." Cblcflgo "Reports from all states In this district indicate boundless enthusiasm Most auspicious oiienlng ever vouchsafed any war loan In hlcago. Son Frauclsco "Reports from tliruout the district indicate plenty of enthusiasm." St. Louis "Kighth district got away to good start. Three Missouri, two Illinois, one Arkansas and one Mississippi counties over.. Memphis trying reach quota this week. St. Iotiis starts fine." Boston "Thirty-five million' dollars un officially reported. Twenty-four cities and towns exceeded quota, beaded by Proctor, Vt., with 300 per cent orer sub scription." Wider distribution of the loan than its four predecessors was indicated in first reports to the treasury offi cials from small communities. Sales however, were smaller. Distribution is what treasury heads want, believing the greater the distri bution the less the re-sale after the campaign closes, hence a firmer bond market. "Hard work, however will be neces sary to float the victory issue." This was the message telegraphed federal resarve district and state cam paign leaders today. It resulted from over night word that the first day's work lacked "pep." Telegrams over night were not encouraging. While small communities reported attaining their quotas, the former inclination to "crow" over the accomplishment was lacking. Determination, however, of the treasury not to accept -over-subscriptions may have had something to do with this, it was said. Detroit Goes Over. Detroit, Mich- April 22. Altho oversubscribing its quota by nearly eight million dollars on the first day of the campaign, Detroit victory loan workers continued their drive today. Leading the large cities. Detroit at 8 o'clock last nicht announced a sub scription of $63,159,500, hore than seven millions above its quota. The victory was celebrated at 9:30 o'clock last night by the setting off of bombs and the hoisting of the victory loan flag on the city hall tower. Chicago Has Seventeen Millions. Chicago. April 22.

At a late hour this afternoon no word had been received from tht. 130th field artillery, whose arrival is so breathlessly awaited, especially by Topekana. The minute the report comes buzz ing over the telegraph-, wires into the State Journal building that the 130th has- arrived -In- New York, the Stat Journal will carry a bulletin announce ment. And the next edition of the pa per will contain the full and complete details of the landing. Anxious mothers and relatives who are sitting on emotions dangerously like a volcano about to come to life, must still hold on a few hours longer. Then a sigh of complete re lief for the boys will again be in the United States. After that will come the several age-long days of waiting until the trains bring them thru To peka on their way to the demobilizing camp at Funston. There will come then a celebration that will almost make the armistice celebration look like a quiet affair. In the meantime the reception committee is ready and waiting. Ra dio offices are being haunted for some flash of information from the sea paths, on which the big transports are steaming steadily along towards New tfork and home. The committee will take immediate charge of the boys and the wires, leading westward will burn with all the anxiously awaited details of how the boys came off the big boats.

The important city of Vilna has been recaptured from the Bolsheviki. according to of ficial admission in a Russian wireless dispatch. "When Can I Get a hipl"; May Soon Be Heard. Cost Will Be High at First, It Is BelieTed. "What time can I get an airplane to Kansas City?" will probably be a com mon question with thirsty Topekans within the next few weeks. Airplane passenger service will be inaugurated this week in Kansas City by the Cen tral Aircraft corporation, it has been announced, with airplanes plying be tween Kansas City and points within 150 miles. It was 'stated that the company is now negotiating with the chambers of commerce of various towns in. Kansas relative to a decision on passenger rates. The company will begin its service, it was said, with one Curtiss army plane capable of carrying two passen gers. The service will be extended later, in accordance with the enthusi asm shown by travelers in the project. Army Men for Pilots. Discharged army aviators will be used as pilots and as the business in creases machines of larger capacity will be used. Lieut.- James H. Smith, former instructor at Rich Field, Tex as, will pilot the first machine. Only in extremely fair weather, it was said, will more than one passenger be car ried at the present time. Flans for the purcnase or more planes are already being made but officials of the company refused to make public further details of their plans until the machines are ready for business. The round trip from Topeka to Kan sas City can be made in about ninety minutes, it was said, and the rates will probably be about $1 a mile, rail road mileage, depending on the out come of the negotiations with the chambers of commerce. Persons; de siring to make the trip will have to buy a round trip ticket, or arrange for the return of some passenger. No actual schedule of rates has yet been announced. Landing Place Here. The starting and landing point In Kansas City, it has been agreed, is to be at Overland Park. No decision haa been made recording the landing place in Topeka, altho it is. said several places are available, including the old grounds used by Phil Billard in High land Park and a site near Washburn college. A field near Gage's park Is also possible. All of these fields are connected with the main part of the city by street car lines. In addtion to the passenger service, the company also plans to install mail and freight service, it is said. Plans I are being made for the construction of a monster machine with a carrying capacity of 75 persons at the com pany's flying field at Overland Park, Kansas City. The possibility of an established freight, passenger and mail service via the air route between points in Kansas is not scoffed at by men who pretend to know the possibilities of the air plane and the ultimate liberal patron age of such a service, resulting in the ability of the new company to operate at a lower cost and reasonable fare is not looked upon as unreasonable. Only for the Wealthy. "Hold on to your basgage it's a long way to the ground," may be a fa miliar warning of the conductor on these new conveyances, and "Don't lean out the window" may be a gUri'ig placard In the passenger cabin. But it is probable that, for a time at least, only the wealthy class of Tooekans and occasionally the very busy bust ness roan win avail tnemseives or this opportunity to defeat Father Time in his efforts to retard the rapid prog ress of the human race. BOOM FOR SUTHERLAND Alliance Formed To Make West Ir glnian Iresldcntial Candidate New Vork. April 22. The organiza tion in New Castle. Pa., of "The Suth erland Alliance" for the purpose of promoting the candidacy of United States Senator Howard Sutherland of West Virginia for the presidency of the United States on the Republican ticket was announced here today by Bert F. Kline, editor of the New Cas tle Herald and one of the organizers of the alliance. Senator Sutherland has been notified, he said, of the or ganization of the alliance and has con sented to the use of his name as a prospective presidential candidate. The papers of incorporation which were filed today at New Castle express the belief that Senator Sutherland "is the logical man to be selected by the Republican party as its candidate for president. In addition to Mr. Kline, the incorporators are George 8. Long, Quincy A. McBrlde andIames A. Ga ley, all business men of New Castle. For the present. Mr. Kline explained, the interests of Senator Sutherland would be taken care of by the alliance but later a campaign manager will be appointed and a nation-wide organiza tion effected. Senator Sutherland was hnm nMr Kirlcwnnd. Mn KntmhAr g. 1865. and received his education at Westminster college, Fulton. Mo., and Columbian (now George Washington university. He first entered politics as a member of the West Virginia state senate In 1908 and served four years in that body. He was then elected a member of congress and served two terms In the house of rep resentatives from 1913 to 1917. He was elected senator in the fall of 1916 for the full six year term and la a member of the military affairs com mittee of that body. Sutherland is married and has eight daughters. His home Is in EIkins.V. Va. Italian Parliament Postponed. Rome, -April 22. The convocation of the Italian parliament has been postponed until May 6th, it is an nounced here. Solicitors Are Meeting With Success on Etet-y Hand. Many Bonds Being Bought by the Laboring Men. The victory loan campaign is tinder full sail in Topeka today. Both 'he men campaigners and the women campaigners are hard at it pushing ahead with the confidence born of four other more than successful drives of the same sort. x The county quota In this campaign is 1 2,147, 500. In a special appeal to, the people of the city and the county Issued today Chairman J. It. Burrow, of the Shawnee county liberty loan committee, asks that each person In the city volunteer a subscription ts the loan at once wHbout waiting fur the solicitors to call. If this la don Burrow says that it is entirely within the bounds of reason that the cam-. paign In Topeka and Shawnee county be ended by oversubscription not later than Saturday night. All Indications in the city point to the fact that the wage earners hav a great deal of confidence in the loan and in the purposes of the loan. In fact, they feel their obligation to the government and the boys who wore the uniform to be such that the In vestment of dollars in liberty bond of the victory issue Is a small enough price to pay for the fruits of the vie tory won in the trenches. Must Pay Hie Freight. One other feature of this 1on which seems to augur well for its Im mediate oversubscription Is that the people feel that with the Topeka! and Shawnee county boys on the water or scheduled for early transport home, it Is up to ahe home folks to "pay the freight."- This feeling Is especially true In the residence districts, Mrs. C. J. Evans, chairman of the women's division, said today after her captains and workers had related some of the ex periences encountered in the Monday campaign of the women. The women workers say that prac tically every woman In the city is eag erly looking forward to the day when the boys each her own particular boys come marching home. They feel that the welcome should be given with lips to the boys' lips, and with arms Joined behind a stout soldier back with a link of the victory loan bond issue. Frank Tarker. general agent of the New England Mutual Life Insurance company received word today that his concern would subscribe $15,000 to the Shawnee county quota. George Godfrey Moore, general agent of the Guardian Life Insurance company, has been authorized to sub scsibe $10,000 to the Shawnee bonds and he has informed the local comi mittee of his subscription.

He served as engineer of operations of squad 11, submarine chasers, and was stationed near New York during most of the war. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. Dr. Wm. P. Merrill, pastor of the Brick Presbyterian church and the Rev. Dr. Henry Sloane Coffin of the Madison Avenue Presbyterian church. The bride wore a simple gown of white satin, trimmed in applique lace. Her veil also was of white lace. She carried lilies of the valley and was unattended, save by Miss Dorothy Miller, one of her closest girl friends, and a sister of the bridegroom, who acted as maid of honor. Groom in Xaval Vnlform.

Waller, jr.. William H. Stewart, Erskine N. White, and Rob ert A,; Franks; jr., acted as ushers. The wedding was very simple and in keeping with the domestic taste of both bride and bridegroom. The magnifi cent Carnegie mansion, built at a cost of several million dollars, was profuse ly decorated with ferns and palms. The music was furnished by the im mense pipe organ, one of the notable features of the laird of Skibo's New Yorlt home. v The bride was given away by her father. They passed down an aisle of ferns and palms to the improvised al tar to meet Miller and his best man; Carnegie is in his eighty-fourth year, his daughter's engagement having been announced on his eighty-third birthday last November. At the time of his marriage to Miss Lucy White field in 1891 he was past 56 and was already worth many millions. His wife, less than half his age, was also wealthy. On a Secret Honeymoon.

Romance Began in 1917, The marriage of Miss Carnecie and Ensign Miller is the culmination of a romance which- began in 1917 upon Miller's return from France. The two met at a party given by Miss Dorothy Miller in honor of her brother. Miss Carnegie, a schoolmate and close chum of Miss Miller, was invited. It proved to be a case of love at first sight and from then on Ensign Miller and Miss Carnegie were almost con stantly together. Mrs. Carnegie and Mrs. Miller, mothers of the bride and groom, have also long been intimate friends. The favorite pastime of Miller and Miss Carnegie has been to take long automobile drives Into the country. With lunch baskets prepared in the Carnegie kitchens and with Mrs. Mil ler and Mrs. Carnegie as chaperons, they would spend the entire days up tne Hudson, tar away from the city. Carnegie was also very well pleased with the match his daughter made, having often expressed himself in fa vor of an American husband for his daughter when royalty sought the family haven while on their summer I sojourn to Sklbo castle in Scotland. In recent years the Carnegies have been spending their summers at their Massachusetts home, Carnegie being too old to undertake the ocean trip to Scotland. Their home in the Berk shire Hills, near Lenox, is one of the most gorgeous rn America. The landscape gardening and interior deco rations were all designed or selected by Miss Carnegie.

TO LIMIT VERSAILLES CONGRESS. Also Allies Object to Huns Submitting Terms to a Plebiscite. Paris. April 22. Discussion of the peace terms by the Versailles congress after the Germans are canea in win not be continued longer than May 15, the Echo de Paris today declares. The Germans wail be required to sign the peace conditions, subject only to the ratification by their government, the allies not consenting that these condi tions shall be submitted to a plebis cite, it adds. Satisfaction is expressed oy tne Paris nress at the speedy subsidence of the flurry over the question of what German delegates should come to Ver sailles. The deduction is drawn that the only thing necessary to bring about the failure of such dilatory maneuvers by the Germans is to speaa clearly and firmly to- them. It is pointed out that the only benefit, if there be any. which Germany has se cured, is to delay the opening of the negotiations for a lew days, une solu tion is attributed by the press ot all parties to the energetic attitude of the enterte, which is accounted a good omen for the success of the Versailles negotiations.

The principal freah incentive o buyers was a statement from the federal wheat director that he saw little chance of a return of the five cent loaf of bread and that European 'supplies of foodstuffs would be even smaller this year than last year. On the advances which enaued, heavy profit taking sales developed, and led to setbacks. Opening prices, which ranged from the same as yesterday's finish to lte higher with Julv $1.5 to $1.50 and September $1.54 to $1.55, were followed by moderate further gains and then a series of reac tions, i Hedging operations put some weight on tbe market later.

Morning ciraln Gossip. (Furnished by tbe Topeka Board ot rrailr Chicago. April 22, The Tribune: tjraln: The advance In corn the last few days la regarded as largely speculative, aa the pub. lie has apparently ran away with the mar ket. Leading longs, who have been right on corn for two months and who have been the largest sellers the Inst two days to se cure profits, say they regard com as hlph enough for the present and that there should be a reaction of 4c5c to put market In better shape. Big shorts have covered freely, some taking liberal losses, aud are disposed to await a more opportune time to reinstate their lines. That grain values are Influenced by the laws of supply and demand rather than by speculation, has never been more fully demonstrated than by the action of the wheat market. There never was a time In which a corner was more absolute than the food administration has had, and yet, with all the power of an Immerse government snd practically un limited money, wbeut has been unable to hold the price down. Strength in the new cron oat futures la due to nrosoects of a material reduction in acreage In many of the largest eata regions. Some of the heavy traders are long on May and the distnnt months, while tbe outside Buying Is going into the distant deliveries. Oats appear to be gaining friends dally, and It is said tbat consumption in tne country is increas ing owing to their being cheaper than corn. Stocks of contract corn In public elevators In Chicago increased 2.000 bushels last week aud are 101.000, Including 90.000 No. .1 grades. Contract oata are 510.000, of which 2!,000 are staudard aud 214.000 No. 3 white. Tbe total Increased 45.000 for the week. Argentine exportable surplus of old corn la estimated by the minister of agriculture at 34,000,000 bushels. Recent estimates from there made the total ko.uuu.ooo Dnsiieix. Last January it was figured as low as 23.000.000. Steadv rains have fallen in Ar gentina tbe laat two days and grave fears are expressed as to the quality of the new crop. Exporters are taking the old. weevlly corn in prererence to new. itains nave fallen off and on for 'he last ,'vo weeks. Difficulties between the tanners and tbe land owners have not been settled and should no adjustment be made shortly, its feared that the new wheat crop acreage will be reduced. J. H. Barnes, In a state ment Issued in New York last nicht. said in part: "Despite the maintenance of the government guaranteed price in tbe face of a probable unprecedented American wheat crop, domestic consumers will not pay more for the product the coming year than foreign buyers." He satd that little Inroad would be made on the billion dollar fund provided by congress. tieraid tsxammer. orain guietly but persistently reports are received of an urgent demand for foodstuffs from all over the world.

The dally gas bulletins already have pointed out the fallacy ot the idea held by some laymen, that natural gas la found In earthen rooms. The Smithsonian Institution calls attention to It in a recent publication and it will bear repeating here. The publica tion eaya: "In no case is the gas found in rooms, caverns, or large crevices as popularly supposed. 'The oil and gas sands are simply very porous roes which contain not only one great cavity, but millions upon millions of small or microscopic cavities, so that the oil. gas. water or all three together. It may be. occupy these numerous little spaces, and thus saturate the rock just as water does a piece of cloth or a sponge when dipped Into the same. The larger these pores sre. and the greater the volume they occupy In proportion to the volume of the rock mass, the greater will be the contained oil or gas supply, and this proportion in fairly good producing sands, usually varies between flne-fifth and one-tenth.'

Huns Were Shocked, but Yanks Did Not 'Mind. ,Camp Mills. N. Y., April 22. Mem bers of the 35th division now awaiting entrain ment for Camp Funston are the first and only American soldiers who marched in the streets of Berlin armed. A number of 35th men who were assigned to patrol service in Ger many were sent to Berlin. But the former Kansas and Missouri guards men are the first American troopers who shocked and horrified Berlin by carrying sidearms and rifles on the streets of the German capital. It was generally understood that al lied troops would' leave their arms at Coblenz. But Lieut. Charles A. Grimes, secretary of the general staff. did not follow all the provisions of the armistice agreement. Berlin was shocked and humiliated when the sol diers from Kansas and Missouri walked down the streets armed for immediate action. Bid Not Take Off Arms. For a week the men of the 35th division who had been assigned to pa trol duty in Berlin were the subjects of the most earnest discussion in Ger many, Newspapers printed columns about the temerity of the horrid Americans. International complica tions were hinted at. But the former guardsmen gave no heed to the ex tensive publicity campaign which they had started and which for a time promised to attract attention in the councils of the allies. Not only did the 35th members wear arms while' on patrol service, but they failed to disarm when paraded thru the streets of the city. It was the latter offense which caused German high officials to threaten a demand for an investiga tion. Typical Kansas-Missouri luck, tho, seems to have been working even on German soil. So far as the inci dent was concerned, rt seems to have been forgotten in military circles and no mention of the affairs has come from Washington. But the proud honor of being the first and only al lied troops to parade .the streets of Berlin armed is another of the war prizes which the fighting 35th has brought back to America. Anxious to Got Home. J No definite date has been assigned for the entrainment of 35th units now at Camp Mills and at Camp Stuart. The men are anxious to leave for home. They want to see the folks and see if the old home town really looks natural. They want to march down the main street of their home town. But they want most of all to get home home to ma and pa and Mary.- It is the desire to leave .camp that has upset any plans for local celebra tions before entrainment. The men are looking toward Kansas and Mis souri and they want to start. A. number of men in the various organizations will come home carrying service medals. Four members of Co. A, 110th engineers, are returning to Kansas with distinguished service crosses. The engineers' company is dear to the hearts of Topekans and is a strictly Kansas unit. Corp. John C. Light and John Mclntyre or Topeka won medals for the capture of boche machine guns. Sergt.. Hugh Caywood of Eureka and Pvt.- John Polley of Wellington also won medals. OUST MINE MANAGERS Workmen in Silesia Act Gas Work- era Join in Bremen. Berlin, April 22. Taking advantage of the new prerogatives given them, the miners of upper Silesia have de cided to oust half a dozen managers and directors from office at some of the largest Silesian mines. Among those deposed is Herr VogI, one of Germany's wealthiest men, director of Prince Henckel von Bonners Marks properties. Copenhagen, April 21. Gas workers at Bremen have joined the German strike there tend the middle classes have commenced a counter strike, ac cording to advices received here from that city. An intensified state of siege has therefore been declared. Paris, April 22. A statement issued here by the Havas' News bureau, a semi-official agency, says that surprise has been manifested over the fact (hat Germany did not select more impor tant men for her peace delegation than Minister von Han tel. Herr von j Keller, Ernest Schmidt, Herr Reimker and Herr Luders, and also that, ac cording to the German note, they will have power only to receive the text of the terms and not to sign the treaty. It is declared, the statement adds, that "in these circumstances the send ing of these delegates to Versailles would be useless." This morning's newspapers see in Germany's -sending "couriers" ..instead of delegates of proper standing to Versailles nothing but evidence of bad faith and a transparent maneuver to gain time. The Echo de Paris says; 'The allied- and associated govern ments are determined not to accept subordinate personages, and Germany will be immediately notified that she must send delegates equipped with full powers to conclude peace. Upon their arrival .at Versailles the first step will be to demand from them evi dence that they hold those powers." The Gaulois, indignant at what it de scribes as "the impertinence of Ger many's coup de theater," which it re- gards as a refusal to sign the treaty, says "The next word will be with Mar shal Foch." NEW ALFALFA MENACE Root Worms Are Iestroying Crop on Shawnee County Farm. Immediate action is necessary, If a new species of ringworm discovered in Shawnee county is prevented from do ing great damage to the alfalfa, ac cording 'to word received from the en tomological department of the State Agricultural college. The message came immediately after the receipt of samples of fhe destroyers sent in by O. F. Blecha, county farm agent, who dis covered them on the farm of E. R. McCullough, near Rossville. Blecha stated that the new worm is a menace he never met before in his experience. On the McCullough farm are several rings many yards in diam eter and inside each of these is a smaller ring. The alfalfa in the space between the two is deafd. The worms were found in the roots of the plant. An expert is expected to. arrive today to examine the entire field. VIENNA 2ND HUN CITY Plan To Transfer Imperial Bureau to .Austrian Capital., Berlin, April 22. -The government has a plan for recognizing Vienna as a second capital of Germany by hav ing President Ebert reside there part of the year, to transfer certain im perial bureaus to that city, and even hold some meetings of the national as sembly there, according to Germania. It is desired to convince the-Aus-trians that they shall not suffer too much by the joining of Austria -and Germany. h.

Frederic J. Haskln, Director, Washing ton, I). Never before in the agricultural story of the United States have riromises been, held for so bountiful a heat crop as are evidenced now. Present Indications show an almost perfect condition for winter wheat, 89.8 per cent. Twelve states have a condition of 100 or over. Ohio is the lushest, with 104 against 80 last year. Kansas, Iowa, Texas and Illinois have 101 according to the federal estimate. Indiana, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania and Colorado have 100. West Virginia Bas 103, or 12 points better than last Sar, while Kansas's condition last jear was only 67. Altho soldiers are returning from oiiroad at the rate of approximately Z90, 000 a month and being discharged, seports to the United States depart ment of labor show that the amount of unemployment in the country stead ily is diminishing. When it is consid ered that work on the farms and on construction projects hardly has start ed it must be apparent that there will be Jobs for all that desire to work. By passing the workmen's health Insurance bill, the New York senate hus just taken the most advanced leg islative action, in the history of the United States looking to the protec tion of the working population against the hazard of sickness. The purpose of the bill as passed is to conserve the health of the workers by establishing, under state supervision, funds Jointly supported and managed by the em ployeraand employes out of which workers in time of temporary sickness will receive benefits both In cash and medical care. These benefits include a cash payment of two-thirds of wages, up to 8 weekly, during tem porary illness or extended disability not covered by workmen's compensa tion, also medical and surgical treat- ment and supplies, hospital service. nursing attendance and dental care, and irr addition, a burial benefit of $100. There is a special provision for maternity benefits. By making the health insurance system universal, with all profit-taking' casualty com panies eliminated, it is said the cost to the insured workers will be only about 20 cents weekly in order to ob tain the full cash and medical bene fits. Employers who share equally lfth the workers in the cost, have toured that their share will be about f per cent of the pay roll. The state Rarely bears the cost of general ad ministration as in workmen's compen sation. Free choice of physicians by Que patient Is permitted. iTpon the signing of the armistice, I'ljesident Wilson said: "Thus the ar came to an end," but after the ex piration pf five months the adminis tration still possesses and still may ex ercise war powers which give control Over almost every line of private busi a. That the powers are not being 4Jr cisecr- In certain instances is a re lief, but not full relief. Men do not invest Ihelr money or expend their eiwrgies in thte face of uncertainties, tiirleson still is in control of the wires and Hines continues to operate the railroads. Both services were taken OTtr by the government as a war treasure. 'resident T. J. Coates of the state normal school of. Kentucky, in one of h:s epigrams, declares: "The average farmer and the average rural teacher look upon, the country school as a lit tle house, on a little ground, where a little teacher, at a little salary, for little while, teaches little children, lit tle" things." Unfortunately this comes entirely too near to being the literal truth. Business men recently assembled in Washington to discuss the most ob vious defects In the United States pos tal service. Any list of the defects in the postal system must begin with turleson. If that one defect could be rem.ived others might easily be joSdo to follow. SMALL BEGINNINGS. A dish washer recently died In Al bany,, N. Y., leaving tlfe sum of J 12, 000 which had been saved out of wages never-higher than' 112 a week. It required twenty years, according to the press dispatohes, for the man to save the amount mentioned. Twelve dollars a week for twenty-years would mean a gross income of approximate ly $12,000. However, the small sav ings of the. first few years were put out at compound Interest, and. there was probably a lucky Investment In town lots or suburban real estate. There are many similar Instances of comfortable fortunes being piled up from very meager earnings. In near ly all such cases good luck In the way of a fortunate investment has helped out the small accumulations. Had it not been for the Initial saving?, how ever, made possible thru thrift, the later good fortune would not have been possible. Many a man has missed the chance to gain riches, says the Thrift Maga zine, simply because he was not abls to take advantage of some good busi ness opportunity when it came along. As a matter of fact most of our great American fortunes were started with a few pennies, and many of our rich est men today had to work hard and save a long time n order to get their first hundred dollars. One encourag ing thing about saving money is that the second hundred dollars seems to come more easily and more quickly than the first, and the third is less dif ficult to scrape together than the sec ond. Schwab, Rockefeller, Carnegie, Mar shall Field, George Westinghouse and Hill are among those men of our day who got their start thru small savings. The Albany dish-washer lacked the qualities of great success, but he made the most of his humble capabilities and he died leaving something solid and substantial to show for his years of hard work. Many a man, far more brilliant than he and of much greater earning capacity, hasn't left enough to pay for the crepe on his door and his friends have been called upon to take up a collection in order to make his funeral a social success. "Burleson wrecking the party" Is the message cabled to President Wil son by Massachusetts Democrats. What Is of more concern to the gen eral public is the fact that he also is wrecking the business of the country. "EXTENDING THE CITY. The plan to build roads 100 miles long in several directions from To peka is a move in the right direction and shoTild not be permitted to drag. The program should be enlarged to cover 200 miles. v City limits no- longer are fixed by municipal ordinance but by automo biles and good roads. As a domestic market a- city's, territory is limited only by the possibilities of motor truck transportation. Facility and economy in this field depend 'on the character of roads; the better the road the! bigger the city. The American city which does-not have a market diameter of 200 miles is not approximating its commercial pos sibilities: it hasn't developed its "home market" to its maximum business pro ductiveness. In nine cases out of ten these cities permit their business op portunities to stall In a mudhole. Twenty years ago the market limit of the average city was about ten miles. It was no farther removed from the heart pf the town than it was possible for a team to pull 'a loaded wagon on a dirt road and make the round trip between the morning and evening chores. Much is said these days about "sea sonable employment," meaning such work as must be done in certain fa vorable seasons of the year. Season able employment Is another term for periodic idleness. It will be eliminated in a 100 per cent efficient industrial system. The mud road makes "sea sonable business," which means that periodically there is practically no business because roads are impassable. A 100 per cent efficient business sys tem will eliminate periodic suspen sions of business activities, even If to do so mean the cbnstruction of hard surface roads. The division of public works 'and construction -developments in the United States department of labor has been investigating the effects of good roads and'Tnotor-triicks on marketing conditions and the increase of business in commercial centers. The results of this investigation can be summarized in a statement of the situation in one city, Indianapolis, Ind. The shopping district of Indianapolis is a circle the diameter of which Is approximately 200 miles. Three instrumentalities make this possible interurban lines, roads which are open to travel the year around and automobile trucks. The United States government has voted $266.75t(000 for federal aid to states in their road-building program. This sum either Is available or will be by the end of the fiscal year 1921. Un der the federal-aid plan the United States government stands practically half the cost of construction. If the states, therefore, avail themselves of this opportunity to translate federal funds into permanent state improve ments, the money spent on road con struction by states and the federal government to the end of the fiscal year 1921 will be not less than $533, 600,000. Time to get after that early brood of flies, says the United States public health service. Better to prevent the breeding of hundreds of flies now than to wat and trap millions of them in midsummer. r TOFKKA STATS 30URNAX, INFORMATION BUREAU FREDERIC J. HAHKIN, Director, Washington. IX C REDECORATING THE CAPITOL. Washington, D. C, April IS. Thirty years of one artist's lifetime- were given to the' mural decorations in the Capitol, and now, a quarter of a cen- tury after his death, the results of his labors are so badly damaged that it j will take another lifetime to restore them. Recently the capitol superintendent engaged the New York artist, Charles Ayer Whipple, to restore some of the Brumidi panels in the first floor cor ridors of the senate side of the capitol, and in the few months since he began the work Mr. Whipple has been so successful that "a bill will be Intro duced at the next session of congress empowering him to complete the res toration of the first floor corridor dec orations and in all probability the un finished friezes in the rotunda. Brumidi spent the last thirty years of his life, aided by a small army of decorators, at work in the capitol. His work has been declared by artists from all over the world to be truly re markable and comparable to Michael Angelo's paintings in the Vatican, after which the capitol decorations were modeled. The "Apotheosis of Washington, painted in the dome' of the rotunda is generally regarded as Brumidi's best work. It was stated af the time the work was completed that 'the. artist' had immortalized the" faces of his wife, daughters and friends in the paint ings. Much disturbance was created by the "story that he had used the faces of certain leaders of the Confed eracy. This story Brumidi denied; but sightseers from the south today insist that they are able to trace likenesses to Lee and Jackson in the pictures on the dome. The friezes around the middle of the dome were never completed, the ar tist dying before his work was done. Mr. Whipple hopes to be permitted to fill the vacant place with a symbolic painting of the part played by the United States in the present war. and to show congress what he can do has filled a third of the space with a "sample" painting. If congress author izes him to finish the friezes, he will paint the sinking of the Lusitania, .the spirit of America, and the battle of Chateau Thierry. "The paintings will symbolize the reason for our entry into the struggle, the spirit that carried us to success, and the turning point toward victory," he declares. For the Chateau Thierry painting Mr. Whipple will go to France and make sketches of the actual scene of the battle. The sample painting now on the walls of the rotunda is declared by visiting artists to be a masterpiece, and the project of completing tne work is enthusiastically supported by the majority of the sightseers in the capitol. If congress fails to authorize the comrjletion of the frieze, tne un derstanding is that Mr. Whipple will remove his painting and leave the space clear for the artist selected by some future congress to finish the long neglected masterpiece. Portions of Brumldrs frieze win have to be restored, an. "open window during a rainstorm' several summers ago having ruined several feet of the work. Mr. Whipple believes that to finish the work and Testore the dam aged portions will take several years. Entirely to restore the ruined mural decorations would occupy the entire attention of more than one artist for the next twenty-five or thirty years, accordine; to Mr. Whipple, and other artists familiar with the problem. Thirty years of neglect and vandal ism have completely obliterated many of the choicest panels, and have m badly damaged others that they have become eyesores instead of the. mas terpieces they once were. Congress men have scratched matches on the walls, written their initials across the faces of priceless paintings, and -otherwise marred the life-work of one of the foremost artists of the world. Paint has been chipped off in some places, ahd has- been discolored in others by leaking pipes and dint. In some portions of the corridors the-en tire masonry must be replaced, and the paintings will be destroyed in the process. Mr. Whipple proposes to transfer the paintings to canvas be fore the work is started, and so pre serve the originals for reproduction on the new walls. It was on the mural decorations in the first floor corridors that Brumidi employed the majority of the artists he summoned to his assistance. Each detail has been worked out with the most finished skill and by the leading artist along that line. An Englishman named Jones painted the birds, de clared by experts to be the finest bird pictures in the country. Colonel Roosevelt was especially fond of the bird paintings, and commented upon their remarkable "faithfulness to na ture. It was originally intended to deco rate the entire capitol as the first floor of the senate side was decorated, but Brumidi died and another artist could not be found to giva his life to the work as had Brumidi. Mr. Whipple, whose reputation Is based on such masterpieces as the portrait of Theodore Boosevelt in the Republican club of New York, be lieves that the honor of finishing the decorations of the capitol would be the crowning tribute the nation could pay to any American artist. However, despite the artist's theory of the national capitol as a temple of the Muses, some of the worst, as well as the best, pieces of art in the United States are enshrined within its walls. In the rotunda, under the incom parable Brumidi friezes, is a collection of huge paintings, noted chiefly for the remarkable assortment of natural phenomena they picture. In one, rep resenting Columbus discovering Amer ica, three flags are shown flowing in three different directions, a phenom enon of the weather that would have been more startling than any other discovery the explorer made in the new world. Washir.irton imin hi ..u.. two little girls are shown with what appears to be five hands' between them. Capitol guides try to explain mis ireaK or nature by asking visitors to believe that the tiny, childish hand belongs to the father of one of the girls, standing direcTly behind them. In the "Baptism of Pocahontas," an Indian is painted with six toes on one foot, the guide again explaining that this unusual state of affairs has. been observed on persons before. "In remarking on these artistic blun ders. Mr. Whipple declared that they could not be excused thru lack of care fulness on the part of the artist "Xo-.trua artist," he said, '"would ever have permitted such mistakes to leave his studio." Other paintings in the corridors an'd halls of the apitol are excusable only on the grounds of their historic value. Among these may be counted "West ward Ho" and "Lincoln Signing the Emancipation Proclamation" poof paintings from the artistic viewpoint but Invaluable as faithful portraits of real historic happenings. x ON THE SPUR OF THE MOMENT BY EOT X MOULTON The Last Few Drops.

Do you think he cares anything for me?' Shall I write him again and ask him why he did not answer? THANK YOU. Do not write to the young man until you have heard from hiirb I believe that he will write some 4ime. Do not place too much confidence in his declarations of love.' Some peo ple make light of it.

"And down that lane you get to the bungalow of Tom Stanley, in water lily man water lilies, pond lilies or wnatever you call tnem. He calls i them Nymphaeae, if that is the way you pronounce, the botanical name." This was part, of the information tnat Mrs. Bob -Manning gave her house guest. Fay McLeod, on the first of her week-ends at the Manning country cottage. "So. you see, we haven't very many eligible bachelors for you. Fay," she went on, "tho, truly. I imagine th Mr." Stanley is nice enough aside from the pond lilies. He's a professor at one of the colleges in the winter, tho his property would make him in dependent if he chose. At least, he's harmless and quite good looking and, you can see how you like him. We've asked him up for the little dance to night." Perhaps the fact that Fay was get ting oil her vacation in those week ends at the summer place of her old friend, Mrs. Bob Manning, that sum mer, and that what diversion she had from the grind of directing' A play ground in pne of the crowded city neighborhoods had to be derived from Saturday' noon to Monday morning, accounted for the fact that she showed less than her usual reserve when she met Mr. Tom Stanley and the other guests at the Bob Mannings' Saturday night dance. "It must be a fascinating study, she tola Tom, as she brought up the subject of his hobby that her hostess had told er about. "Ther are some that .bloom only at night, aren't there?" Tom uttered an' affirmative, but without digression on the subject of nymphaeae, for. at that particular moment the delicate curve of Fay Mc Leod's lips and the delicate rouuding of her chin seemed of vastly more in terest than all the night-blooming Water lilies in the world. He naa an absurd desire to tell her about it. "I have alwavs longed to see a lotus." went on Fay. heroically trying to continue the conversation. Usually when all other devices failed one could talk on a man's hobby with results, but this time the rule was failing. "There must be something inexpressi bly lovely about them. Yet, I suppose they never grow in- tnis climate 'So you are interested in them, too." said Tom Stanley, recalling him self. "Most people find them rather stupid. Really, I do wish you could get up an interest Jn tne suDjecx, De causa if you did then perhaps you wouldn't find me so dull as I am afraid you would otherwise. What a jolly thing it would be if I could make myself a really interesting friend to to a girl like you." "I really do wish some nice girl could take that Mr. Tom Stanley in hand and marry him," sighed Mrs. Bob Manning over Sunday morning breakfast with her husband, ana J?'ay. She had told her husband her plans beforehand and had coached him on what he should say. "He really is a fine chap," he ex plained. But he had been much ab sorbed in his shaving when his wife had coached him, and he had for gotten the details of the instruction. "Sav. Fav." he Baid. "why don't you marry him? He seemed immensely taken with you when he asked when yon were coming again and all about you. You might as well be spending his money as having him squander it all on those infernal water weeds of 1 his. He spends all his stray time mop ing thru the marshes looking for them anduot:-content with what he gets that wav. he spends thousands of dol lars having roots imported from Egypt and other God-forsaken places, wny, what he spends on those weeds would support half a dozen wives." The days that followed were gloomy ones for Tom Stanley. He was pes simistic from the first about Fay. He knew well enough that she was the girl whom he would want to marry. but he felt no security at all; In bis method of courtship. Now, If it was a new sort of water nymph that he was in search- of that would have been different. That was a matter of patient search thru the marshes, communication with his agent and then careful cultivation on his own part. But wooing a wife was something that he felt he knew noth ing about. It was after they had known each other for three week-ends that btan lev decided he could endure the sus' pense no longer. He determind to ask her that week-end to be his wife. Stanley met Fay at the small station where those who visit that section of the country must get off and ran her over in his roadster to tne Bob Man ning house. "Are you going to let me stick around this afternoon?" he asked Fay as soon as he had reached their des tination. Fay assured him .'that she would much rather have him come that night and ordered him playfully to let her and Mrs. Bob amuse themselves alone during the afternoon. "Bob has some new dance records I thought we could try," said the plot ting hostess, "so be sure to come back for dinner. "Oh. if you don't awfully mind I have a walk I want to go this evening with Tom, interrupted Fay. There 11 be time for dancing besides, and I can't tell you what it is. It's a sur prise," she Baid, looking at Tom. Tom hesitated for a moment, but his mind was made up. "I'm-awfully sorry I had some business to attend to tonight. It has to be done tonight,' he said. "If I could come for dinner and -tear myself away later and then I'm counting on having you all up for supper at my place Sunday. Aunt Mandy s promised us something spe cial Fay protested" and Mrs. Bob re treated. Fay begged to be told what his business was, she pouted and said she was jealous. Tom didn't tell her, because he felt that she would not realize that business such as that coiMd claim him. Finally it was agreed, however. His business, he told her, meant a solitary hour or so spent In the wood land swamp, and, strangely enough, so did hers. So after dinner they ven tured forth both donning rubber boots before they went, and Stanley taking a lantern, in case the .moon should be hidden by one of the clouds that were rising In the misty sky. The fact was that for several weeks now there had een thieving going on. There were some water lily roots which Stanley had been cultivating in fact, he had been the first to estab lish them in this climate that had been "stolen from a stretch f marsh land that was a part of his land. Al ways the theft took place on Satur day night, His man bad tried to dis cover the thief," and then .for a week Tom had patrolled the marshes, but he felt that as the theft had "taken place on the three preceding Satur days he would have better uccess if he sought the thief on that night. "We must walk up thru this thicket first," said "Fay when they' .started out. "I'll tell you now it is a beau tiful aurprise. You told me you would like it if 1 studied up on water lilies. Well, I have been doing it, and I've been scouting around and I've found some -of the most beautiful pink ones that come out only at night- I pulled some up last week and the other week ends, and I wanted -first te find out what they were before I showed them to you. But I eouldn t. Besides, they always close when I get home. So I wanted to take you to them." Did you manage to pull them up by the roots?" asked Stanley, with a catch in his voice that Fay did not de tect. Thar were, he saw, the roots that it hair cost him so much in money and patience to establish. "Yes, I got root and all. because I thought that would help me to iden tify them. It was hard, but I did it." Don t let s pull that one up, sug gested Stanley as Fay pointed out the last of his most choice roots that he had Imported from the ends of the world. "Let's leave it there o we can always come back and see it." Ana now isi s attena 10 your dusi ness," said Fay, rather disappointed that Stanley had shown no more en thusiasm, but blissfully ignorant of the real situation. "Oh, my business," echoed Stanley. "Why, for that matter, it is quite set tled. Perhaps the reason I wanted to bring you out in these woods was be cause it would seem a little easier to ask the girl I love to marry me right here in this misty moonlight." And Fay agreed with him.

Never had I seen quite that look in his eyes. Most women. I believe, wake up suddenly rather than slowly, to anything that savors of a difficult situation. But invariably if we look back we see that it has been existent for some time; that many events have led up to it particularly if the situa tion is a marital one. I repeated the question.

(Copyright 1910 by Edgar A. Guest,) DOROTHY DLX TALKS BY DOROTHY DIX World's Highest Paid Woman Writer. Strike Your Own Note I. I get a great many letters from girls asking me why they are wall flowers. They say they are just as good looking. Just as intelligent, just as well dressed. Just as well placed socially as the other girls in their set, yet while the other girls4 have .beans a-plenty they never receive any at tention from men. No youth ever camps under their pink-shaded lamps, or brings them candy, or takes them Joy riding, and when they go to par ties no man ever asks them to dance unless he is goaded into doing so by his hostess. And they want to know why this Is thus. No one can speak with real author ity in attempting to explain why a wallflower Is a wallflower any more than they can tell why. a peach is a peach. Probably it is just because God hath made them so. Certainly will not tell me something connected with Blanche Orton, your relations with her." "For heaven's sake. Bab, are you going to play the part of a jealous wife I saw plainlyi that Neil did not Intend me to say any more to him. that he did not mean to tell me any thing, yet I persisted. "I don't know what is wrong, Neil. But I am sure there is something. I have been so wrapped up in the baby, that I have been blind to other things. I never have been your partner, but l nave not- been so shut out of every thing as Jv now am. I am sick to death of not knowing things. I want you to begin tonight. We'll start all over. You tell me the things which I, as your wife, should know, I feel that our future happiness depends upon perrect confidence between us. I laid my hand on his knee, and leaned my head against his ehoulder. We were nearly home. It would not be easy to take the subject Up again. I wanted an answer now. "You tend baby.

Neither of tis talked much when we reached home, but Neil was cross and nervous. He sent me off to bed, but he sat up late working in the library. Once, when I crept near the library door to see what he was doing. I heard the rustle of papers, and went quietly back without disturbing hi ml It was long before I slept.

Money is very good to us if we are good to it. But the great ambition in money-getting should be that it may place us in the position to forget money. For only as we recognize the means of money are we able to Influ ence the power of our personality and good works on the world. I have always noticed that with the great massfhg of wealth, people seem to have more comfort and greater pleasures, but less happiness, so that after ali, wealth Is but a means a track, as it were over which to travel, and not to own. Get money! Earn it! Live off of it! But drop it as you go not leave it after you are dead. no man really knows what it is that attracts him to one girl, and sends hlrn Liyinjr away irom anotner. It isn't cleverness. It Isn't amiabil ity. It isn't talent. It isn't even beau ty, because we all know girls wno are pretty- and bright and who can sing and dance like professionals, and who dress like fashion plates, whom men avoid as if they had the plague, and other girls who are just plain ordinary girls, of Ihe corsnon or garden va riety, whom men tloek. about as bees do about a honey pot. As near as I can come to solving this difficult problem it seems to me that the trouble with the wallflower girl is that she lacks personality that mysterious something in a human be ing that la different from every other human being, and that arrests our at tention, and piques our curiosity and that sets us wondering what manner of man or woman he or.' she- is. and sets us to guessimr whathe or she ia going to do next. Especially is this quality of person ality valuable in a girl, for most young girls are just as muchi alike as peas in a pod. They arauilttle. copy cata who drFS, comb thelrVhair, talk and think alike, and use 'the same words, and are such counterparts of each other that you wonder their own mothers can tell them apart. My observation is that the girl who is overlooked by men is invariably a girl who is just one of this mob of youthful femininity. She represents- the monotony of girmooa. ne Just the genera average, and ins passes unnoticed in the crowd, be cause there is nothing to distinguish her from all the balance. Now it la self evident that if a girl in a rose bud garden of girls wishes to attract the attention of any Romeo wlio may be strolling thru it, the surest and quickest way to do it la to cease to be a rose, and to be some thing else. In a rose garaen you might not observe a superlatively per fect rose, but your eye wouia inevi tably be caught by,a Illy or a sun flower. Therefore the wallflower girl who wishes to take herself out of the wall flower class should devote herself to cultivating personality, and Bhe can do this best when she learns how to strike her own note which meaes develop ing her strongest oharacteristlo to its highest point of expression.

Berlin. April 20. The present Ger man government is playing into the hands of the reactionaries and militar ists who expect to overthrow the re public and re-establish the monarchy as soon as the allied armies are demo bilized. Emil Barth, radical leader, charged In an Interview with the United Press today. Barth, who was a member of the provisional cabinet Just completed a three months' tour of Germany, stu dying developments and determining the strength of the workmen. The threatened- monarchist revolu tion may be averted, he said, by a DODular uprising which would result in establishing a proletariat dictator ship. Among other statements made by Barth was that Germany can and should pay for the de struction she wrought. There is already enough food In Ger many, if it were fairly distributed. France is Justified In fearing Germany and demanding that German militarism be positively destroyed. President Wilson has been deceived by the present German government. The allies made a mistake In compromis ing with Germany on the Danzig question as the militarists now believe they can get what they want at Versailles. -Germany ought to have a "dictated peace," as it is all she deserves. Ixoks for Revolution. "As a result of my intimate observa tions, I prophesy one of two things will happen," said Barth. "There will be a second revolution. either before peace is signed or as a result of the government's refusal to accept the entente's tevms, resulting in the estarmsnment or a proletarian dictatorship or the royalists will in augurate a counter-revolution as soon as peace Is signed. The monarchists would bring tne kaiser, the crown prince and the rest of the royalty back and Germany would be the same rrienace to Europe that she was before. Generals Luden- dorff and Groener are behind this movement but General von Vorbeck, who is being dally honored by the Germans as the undefeated victor of the African campaign, is actually the military commander chosen to conduct the' counter-revolution.

Counting the veteran army as certain to align itself with this move ment, the monarchists can count on at least three million armed supporters. Volunteer Corps Corrupt. "The Republican volunteer corps, organized by the present government, is the most corrupt, brutal and dis honorable military body Germany has ever seen. The men are drawing the normal pay of officers and four marks bonus every time they stand guard. They also have free theater tickets and similar privileges. They serve be cause they get high say and good food. They are given three times the rations that civilians draw while women and children starve. There would be plenty of food in Germany if it were fairly distributed. I beg the entente to investigate and insist that soldiers have only the same amount of food as hungry women and chil dren, before sending more supplies to enable the militarists to strengthen themselves. "France Is absolutely right in fear ing Germany and demanding that Ger man militarism be positively destroyed. President Wilson is completely de ceived in the present German govern ment, l say this, tho I admire him as the greatest man of the present time. The German whine that we can not pay indemnities is disgusting. We can and should pay for the destruc tion we have wrought. The way to pay la to oust the capitalist who fi nanced the war and who holds the bonds now, ready to 'sacrifice anything to retain power and drain the Ger man people of twenty-five to thirty billions of marks yearly. It is to their Interest to enslave the German mich ael (common people) who suffered while the capitalists loaned money. Huns Not Heavily Taxed. 1 "The Germans were not heavily taxed. The war debts were entirely floated by bonds. The Germans are willing to pay France and Belgium, tho they will refuse to work and re pay the whole outside world. There is one way we can pay our obligations to the entente. We must have a lic tatorship of the proletariat, at least temporarily. By proletariat. I mean every one who works, whether with his hands or his head. .We would not make the same mistakes Russia did. We would not limit a man '4 earning capacity. Thyssen, the millionaire manufacturer who has brains, would earn the same salary he received in the past, but could not 'speculate and amass a fortune for -his heirs. "Give the workmen "a chance by lifting Germany's internal load. It is the only way the entente can collect Do -not Judge Germany by taking America as an example. Your country never was shackled by a militaristic capitalism, the same as we are. "The biggest emistake the entente has made since the armistice was signed by giving in to Germany on the Danzig question. The militarists now are 'bragging they will Just show a little spunk and get what they want at Versailles. "Germany ought to have a dictated peace. It is all we deserve. Then we should pay up. There would be peace inside of twenty-four hours if the people did the signing instead of the present government." Pittsburgh Pirates Ready. South- Bend, Ind., April 22.

John A. Flack, Abilene bank wreck er, has been given a parole. The pa role was signed by Governor Allen and approved by the state charter board. News of the release of Flack was made public from Lansing after having been kept a secret for a number of days. The Abilene State bank, for whose failure Flack was sent to prison, closed its doors in 1910. Depositors were paid in full only because an assess ment was levied on other banks oper ating under the state bank .guaranty act. Since he went to prison, Flack was the recipient of many favors at the hands of penitentiary officials. Since 1916 Mrs. Flack had been em ployed at the prison as an assistant matron in the women's ward. Numerous applications had been made for Flack release from prison. But a parole was denied by Governors Hodges and Capper. Neither execu tive would extend clemency to the bank breaker and until recently the sentiment against Flack in Abilene is said to have been strong. Bank ers in all sections of Kansas protested against applications for paroles for the Abilene man His bank was the first and only institution in the state which required a levy on the guaranty fund in order to protect shortages. Flack's defalcations totalled about $100,000, it was asserted. Neither Governor Allen's office nor the state board of administration had reported Flack's parole and precau tions had been taken to prevent the publication of the facts. JAPS KILL CHILDREN People Kept Ignorant of Brutal Mili 1 tary Policy in' Korea. Tokio. April 19. Numerous reports from reliable and impartial sources indicate the Japanese people have been kept Ignorant of the alleged bru tality of the Japanese military party in Korea.

Nobody can tell if you use Grandmother's simple recipe of Sage Tea and Sulphur. Almost everyone knows that Sage Tea and Sulphur, properly compound ed, brings back the natural color and lustre to the hair when faded, streaked or gray. Years ago the only way to get this mixture was to make It at home, which is mussy and trouble- ;ome. Nowadays, by asking at any drug store for "Wyeth's Fage and Sul phur Compound," you will get a large bottle of this famous old recipe, im proved by the addition of other in gredients, at a small cost. Don't stay gray! Try it! No one can possibly tell that you darkened your hair, as it does It so naturally and evenly. You dampen a sponge, or soft brush with it and draw this thru your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning the gray hair disappears, and after another ap plication or two, your hair becomes beautifully dark, glossy and attractive.

According to tentative plans discussed today, the parade of the returning soldiers or rather the parades for it Is hoped that every (unit which went to war from Tjpeka will be given time for a "regular" home coming by the war department will be formed at the Union Pacific depot and will proceed south on Kansas ave nue to Ninth street, thence west to the state house. At the state house it is planned that the mothers, sweethearts and wives and other relatives of the boys will congregate to see them for the first time after the long absence. In the case of Battery A the men will prob ably be at liberty to greet their friends and relatives for nearly an hour after arrival at the state house grounds! For the persons whose in terest in the men is rather that of friends than the close ties of blood relationship it is hoped they will do their greeting as the boys .march down the avenue. In this way the close rel atives of the boys will be dble to meet them free from the thoughtless jos tling of a crowd. Other details of the parade plans will be announced later. BIG!!. DEFICIT Bush-Sees a National Debt of $300,000,000 This Year. Must Be Paid by Taxation or Increased Bates. Austin, Tex., April 22. B. F. Bush, regional director for the railroad ad ministration, today told the state rail road commission that not a railroad in Texas would earn its federal com pensation. He was appearing at a hearing t determine what trains would be restored; to service. He said he expected a deficit of 300.000,000 in the operation of the railroads of the United States this year, a deficit to be paid either by taxation ""or in creased rates. Air. Bush continued that the cost of passenger service per mile in Texas five years ago was from forty to fifty cents and that it had increased until now it was from $1 to $1.56. He asked the commission not to order any pas senger train restored that would not earn at least H per mile. He said that In Arkansas and Kansas automo biles had reduced passenger traffic on branch lines fifty per cent. WOULD SAVE LAWNS Santa Fa Officials Want Sidewalk l'liish With Curbing. Santa Fe officials petitioned the city commissioners this morning thru W. E. Baldry, city engineer, for permis sion to lay -a sidewalk around th building on Fourth street that will be at variance with the usual procedure In sidewalk construction. Instead of laying the sidewalk with in a certain distance from the build ing and having a parking between there and thecurbing it is their desire to lay the walk flush with the curb ing, with the lawn spot inside. They give as a reason for this departure from the usual procedure the fact that this building is to be used chiefly as a freight depository for unclaimed freight. i'eople attending the sales would park cars at the curbing and then cut across the lawn to the building, it is feared. However, by laying the walk at the curbing they feel that attendants at the sales would follow the walk Into the building with out tracking up the lawn. No deci sion was reached on this measure. U was referred to the city attorney and the streets commissioner. BE GUEST OF C. OF C. Ole Hanson, Mayor of Seattle, Will Speak In Topeka. Ol?

KANSAS IS THERE! Rousing "Welcome jfor the Boys Jn New York. Great Flans for 130th When They Arrive Today 1 NEED MORE KANSAS GIRLS Xot Enough To Go Around at the X. Y. Dances. Ja j hawker Home on Fortieth Street Is Popular. New York, April 22. Kansas is do ing the welcoming of ita troops when tluy arrive here up "brown." Missouri is late on the job, but a delegation is here and Is getting busy. The first thing the returning sol diers see as they come up New York harbor is a little tug bearing soma fifty or mon Kansans. This tug flies a big sunflower banner; and take it from the soldier, homesick for Kansas, h. knows exactly what that sunflower stands for. The Kansas welcome boat has met every transport that has arrived with the 35th division troops thus far, and they propose to stay on the Job intil the last soldier is home. They get as many fathers and mothers q.the boys aboard the Kansas tug as possible and chug down to Quarantine, where the big transports are tied up. No one is permitted to board, but the little tug whistles and toots around the trans port with everybody yelling, "Welcome home Kansans" as loud as they can. And how the soldiers do rise to It. Tkey like it. Each and every one of them are -anxious for the first sight of home folks, and soldiers from other states say "lucky dogs, you Kansans; they've not forgotten you." Governor Is There. Gov. Henry J. Allen and Mrs. Allen, as well as the official welcoming par ty, are here to greet the homecomers. Few governors have taken the pains to do so, and It has made a hit. Gover nor Alfen didn't get up from Newport News in time to meet the first thou sands In, so the entire welcoming party motored out to Camp Mills today and got special permission, to "welcome" the Kansans. And the soldiers sure were glad to see the governor and Gen. Charles I. Martin, who had been a brigade commander right up to th day of the Argonne battle. Instead of a "welcome," It was a reunion for both Governor Allen and General Mar tin with the troops. The Kansas "Home." At 34 West Fortieth street the Kansans have established a "home." Placards and signs invite the Jay hawkers to it the minute they strike camp. Parents and wives wait for their relatives here, and the- soldiers never fail to come. A big bulletin bpard carries personal messages to the soldiers. If the soldier in question does not come his companions carry the word to him. They have a music room where the Kansas soldiers can dance if they can find a girl, altho right now that Is the worst trouble. Nearly all the return in? soldiers want to dance, and there aren't enough Kansas girls her. to go around. Then there is a dining room where the, Jayhawk soldiers and sail ors can drop in and have a sandwich and cup of coffee. There is a dearth of cooks and dishwashers in New Tork. and until help can be had the official "welcomers," as well as pa rents, have been rolling up their sleeves and pitching in and washing dishes. Some of the soldiers have of fered to help, volunteering that after a touch of "kitchen police" they can qualify as experts. But not for the Kansas welcomers. The soldiers mustn't work. The reception committee has planned a great welcome for the 130th field artillerv and Wednesday nieht they have a big Kansas blowout for all the anits that have arrived. May be the returning Kansans don't like the friendly faces meeting them here. The number that visit the headquar ters is me Dest indication. SMOKER ON MAY 6 Topeka ng Will Welcome Heads o."

SOLDIERS MADE VASSALS Arisen Continues Testimony About Military Justice Before Committee. Washington, April 22. Lieutenant Colonel Ansell, former acting; judge advocate general, continued today his attack upon the army system of justice before the investigating committee of thaj American Bar association. He re iterated his assertion that the existing system was derived from days wh-m "eommon soldiers" were the vassals of the king and failed to recognize the soldiers as citizens ofthe state, and declared it was the natural result of such a system that an officer caste should be buirt up. Declaring it a fact that the enlisted man did not receive the same consid eration of his rights under the system that officers enjoyed, Colonel Ansell saSd that the only remedy lay In writ ing into the law the guarantees of th rights of the soldier. While this is left to regulations to be prescribed by the president, he said, it cannot be ef fective. "The attitude of the army,' he added, "has been intolerant to ward those methods necessary to Jus tice. They do not take kindly to legal restraints." While a commander of troops must necessarily have arbitrary power. ..of command the officer asserted, v ,i should not go to the ezeent of permit ting them to be hangman. t congress cannot command the army," Colonel Ansell declared, "but congress snouia prescribe the rules for its discipline. Jf you are going to have any law worthy of the name, you will not get it by committing, it to departmental regulation. If it is to be left there all this agitation will nave Deen in vain." The officer, who was freauentlv In terrupted by members of the commit tee t discuss involved legal questions as they arose in his argument, assert- inat mere naa Deen strpnft ef fort by the war department to "have the people and perhaps this commit tee believe that there was a substan tial revision of th. articles of war in lsl. This was not the -fact, he said, and cited statements made to congres sional committees bv Maior neneral irowaer, juage advocate general, irr pruposmg- me revision to prove his case. His attention was drawn to re cent statements by General Crowder showing that he agreed that the mili tary code needed amendment. These statements Colonel Ansell character ized as evidence of i'a change of heart" on General Crowder's part but he declared "that such statements by that officer or By Secretary Baker were "not made in a way to assure me as would a favorable report by mis committee.
