nothing of great moment. He declined
to divulge the nature of the docu-
mentary evidence on which Machen was
arrested yesterday. but repeated his
opinion that the department has a clear
case against Mr. Machen and the Croft
brothers.
1t was brought out in the talk that
Mr. Machen was some time ago accused
of having signed another mans name to
a pay roll. The charge. said Mr.. Payne.
was based on an incident that occurred
some ten or twelve years ago. Mr.
Machen was asked to make a statement
about the matter and replied that when
the time came he would have no trou-
Bile whatever in proving his Innocence.
May End Inquiry Soon.
Mr.. Payne said that events which have
traHspired in the past few days have led
Mr.. Bristow and the inspectors to be-
Iieve that the investigations can be
closed in a much shorter time than was
thought possible a few weeks ago. but
he declined to give an approximate date
for the completion of the inquiries.
In regard TO the nature of the investi-
cations, Mr. Payne said:
Finding people whom we believe to
be guilty of frauds is not our only OBJ
ject. The proof of one fraud is ground
for suspecting the existence of others,
and we will continue our search until
we not only get the men who have done
wrong, but until we unearth the defects
in the system which enabled them TO act
as they did. This closing of the avenues
for fraud is the most important part of
the work. and is what makes it difficult
to tell when we will complete the job"
Attorney Douglass View.
Charles A. Douglass. OF Douglass &
Douglass, counsel for Machen. when ask
ed today for statement on behalf of
his client, said: Il do not purpose 70
try Mr.. Machen's case in the newspa-
pers, but this much l can say. with pro-
priety:
If Machen Is Innocent.
THE charges preferred against Mr.
Machen are of the gravest character.
and if they are established. he should
OF course be severely punished. If they
have been made improvidently and with
out sufficient evidence. public censure
swift and strong should fall upon the
heads Of the responsible parties
Mr.. Machen is widely and favorabiy
known throughout the United States,
and the public should not PREJUDICE his
case. but await developments. Mr.
Machen Will be able to prove in the
clearest and most unequivocal way that
he is innocent of any wrongdoing More
than this it would not be proper for me
to say at this time

1t was wonderful how quickly the time
flew by, and it was even more wonderful
how Gerard Fane's intimacy with Mrs.
Mcdonald and Gladys grew. He had
long since given up looking upon the
elder lady as "a dragon" if anything,
she was little too easy chaperon. She
seemed to think little or nothing at all of
the expeditions they fell somehow into
the habit OF making into the country or
over the sands and rocks, along the sea-
shore. Once or twice too Gerard had
taken Gladys out in boat, and Mrs. Nc
Donald had without hesitation declined
an invitation to join them.
Oh, my dear children, she cried, it's all

was largely matter of imagination.
This. of course, is true in measure.
II the mind can be occupied in some

On the other hand, man may i'm

nerve him and make him sensitive to
a triffe.
A man ought to be able to walk

the Frick building and the tower OF

would walk that same plank six inches
from the ground But II lie were able

always in vertical rows; the general
effect, however, being about the same
as the naval flag. Hereafter there
will be no difference in the arrange
ment of the stars between the army
,nd navy, as an agreement has been
arrived at between the War and Navy
Departments.
While the sizes of the Government
flags are not prescribed by statute
law. they are fixed by regulations Of
the army and navy, which have been
based upon convenience, utility and
beauty, and the exigencies OF the ser
vice. The storm and recruiting flags
measure each eight feet in length by
four feet two inches In width. The
most flag measures 20 feet in length
by 10 feet in width. The garrison
flag, hoisted only on great occasions
and national holidays measures 38
feet in length by 20 feet in width. The
union is always onethird Of the length
OF the flag, and extends to the lower
edge of the fourth red stripe from the
ton. The national colors carried by
regiments of infantry and artillery and
the battalion OF engineers are made
of silk. They are six feet six inches
long and six feet wide: the union be-
ing 81 inches In length and extend
ing to the lower edge Of the four0
red stripe from the top.

SELECTING STOCK.

It is impossible for a farmer to
reach a high position with his herd
7r flock until he has selected the best
for several years. Even the most
:!:illf"l breeders do not succeed In
occurring but few valuable individual
animals from their herds, though
each year may witness an advance In
their efforts, and a great prepotency
or capacity to transmit the most de,
sirable qualities sought by reason OF
selection Of the best from among
certain families. The farmer who
simply aims to breed up his animals
70 a higher standard Is as much inter-
ested in the selection Of sizes, that
will render the greatest service as is
the breeder who is often satisfied
with one or two wonderful perform
crs from among q large number.
Worthless sircs, even from pure bred
stock, are not desirable for the farm
er. When he grades up his herd or
flock he will save time, labor and
money by procuring the best for the
purpose, Just as the breeder OF pure
breeds seeks the most valuable sire
in order to increase the value OF his
stock.

one sfeata tase common to all, namely, the

the Pale they are obliged to do 80 by
Law, I'm Poland and Galicia no such leg

towns We find them. In Warsaw alone

elsewhere are SO conspicuous.
A considerable portion of the land in
BukoVina and Galicia is owned by
Jews, who are, moreover, said to hold
mortgages on many OF the remaining
estates But there are few manufactur-

population seems to have nothing to
