Corn for Fuel in Kansas.

The Rawlins county farmer refuses to
sell his corn, because he can get only s

preference, because coal is worth so
cents bushel. He also lives in sod
house because lumber is worth $S5 a
thousand. A little over year ago the
Rawlins county farmer whooped up

which puts tax on coal and lumber
and lets corn take care of itself. Result:

Mrs. Wanamaker likes thread lace. in

she is woman of few caprices, she can
afford to satisfy this one in full. She
is woman out of the ordinary, any
way. She likes engravings better than
color paintings, shivers little at the
too white glare Of diamonds, and would
rather don black robe, covered with a
cobweb of black thread lace, than all

Russia. Blow Against tn. Jews.

BERLIN, Aug. Tt is calculated by
the jewish committees here as we'll as
in London that over a million souls
will be driven from their homes and
business by the Russian movement.
The reason given, that many of the men
arrested in other countries as Nihili ats
are Jews, is so trivial ss to be unworthy
of any consideration. 1t is more likely
that, beside the periodic scare which
Russia is IN the habit of experiencing,
and for which somebody must be made
to suffer, the Jews have become rather
prominent in the trades and profess
sions, because they are more clever
than the dull Russian of the middle
classes, and therefore, for the sake of
these same Russians, they must be
thrust out of all their advantageous
positions. This is one of the views
taken of tho action against them.

rae CHILD CRUSADE.
One of the Most Remarkable Happenings
In the Dark Ages.

One OF the Most Remarkable Happenings
In the Dark Ages.
The term Ozark Ages" is somewhat
vaguely applied to that period follow
ing tho fall of the Roman empire, and
preceding the revival of letters in the
fourteenth century. In abiding to the
Dark Ages, however, as q general rule,
we have in mind the period of the Cru
sades to the Orient for the liberation of
the Christians and the Holy Sepulcher.
In 1913, Peter the Hermit, made a pill
grimage to Jerusalem, where the OPP
preston he witnessed caused him to re-
solve to free Christ's people and the
relics so dear to the Christian people.
Peter led the first host of the Crusaders
in person; other bands soon followed.
In all it has been estimated that not
less than 1000, 900 of lives were lost in
this wild attempt to keep the Pagans
out of Jerusalem. In the year 1919
the Crusades took q different turn;
children were drawn into the
movement In the early sum-
mer of the year named, two i'm
mense armies of children were gathered
in France and Germany in response to
the call of two boy prophets, neither of
whom was over twelve years of age.
These youthful leaders believed, or af-
fected to believe, themselves the chosen
of God, and that it was their duties to
lead these children through the Medi-
terranean, like Moses had led the
children of Israel through the Red
Sea. The excitement caused by the
workings of these boy preachers spread
like plague; whole families of chill
dren joined the hosts already organized;
no amount of remonstrance on the part
of the parents could check the epidemic
in the least Children who were locked
up to keep them from going on their
tramp of death, died in commissions or
lost their minds in hopeless melancholy.
The first great host of children
left for the Holy Land under
the leadership of Nicholas of
Cologne; the second band under
the leadership of boy whose name is
unknown. The combined number of
these two armies was 100000 about o.
600 being girls under eight years of age.
In the same month another army left
France under the guardianship of
Stephen of Vendome; this army num-
bered not less than $4,000. The first
two legions crossed the Alps-Nicholas
at Mount Cents and the unknown leader
at St Gothard. and descended into
Italy The combined armies of Nicholas
and his unknown ally lost not less than
$4,000 children by heat, hunger and
fatigue before reaching the first valley
in Italy. stephens French army suf-
fered still more terrible-1O. 900 of them
dying before the mountains were
reached and another 5000 before they
reached Italy, the entire route being
strewn with corpses. OF the 100000
children which the fanaticism of the
age allowed to join the Crusade, less
than 10000 returned to their native
land alive St Louis Republic.

AN EUROPEAN CENSUS.

InQuisitiOn to Which tho German Govern
ment Subjects Its Citizens.
Americans who are loudcst in their
groanings about several census ques-
tions should look at the inquisition to
which the Germans are subjected.
The German year book gives the fig
ures of even the income tax. An in
come of $3.50 or less is not taxed, and
up to $3.50 the tax is nominal. For in
comes over $3.50 the owner must swear
as to the truth of the figures he gives.
The exact rental of each dwelling is
obtained, and the average rentals for
different conditions are published. The
showing for the year 1885 makes the av-
| erage rental for a single room without
Stove-or an unbeatable" room, as the
expression used is-a sum that corre-
spends in our money to $50 per year. 1t
makes the rental for a single room with
stove in it-or a single "heGtable"
room-S5O; for living apartments con-
sisting of two ''heatable" rooms, $S5 per
annum; for apartments consisting of
three such rooms, $3.50; for four "heata-
BILE rooms, 5000, etc.
| No personal liberty in Berlin. The
| police methods in Berlin greatly aid in
the preparation of an accurate census.
No room can be rented at II hotel or
boarding house, and no apartment or
house can be legally leased, until the
| landlord has sent to the police the
name and purpose of the newcomer and
the length of time for which he
will probably make the city his
home. The same method is in vogue in
other German cities. The experience
of one of the professors of the Univer-
sity of Pennsylvania last summer is sig
nificant as to the effectiveness of these
methods, Wishing to communicate with
an American lady who was abroad, and,
as he thought, in Leipsic, he wrote to
the police of that city. The answer de-
clared that no person of the name was
in the city. A similar letter was sent
to the police headquarters of Dresden,
and similar answer was received.

wrote to the police of Berlin, the reply
