LOLITA ARMOUR
Goes to Europe to Have Lorenz Teach
Her the Art Of Walking.
New York Worldly

(New York Worldly
Little Lolita Armour is to crsss the
Atlantic Ocean to receive treatment
from Prof. Adolf Lorenz whose cures
of born cripples have aroused the in
terest of the civilized world. This
does not mean that the little girl
must undergo a second operation at
the hands Of the surgeon. She is go
ing there merely to be under the care
of Prof. Lorenz who will personally
see that she learns how to walk just
[as other girls do who were not born
with double dislocation Of the hips.
Mr.. and Mrs. J. Ogden Armour Of
Chicago, father and mother of Lolita,
are at the Waldorf-Astoria. The lit
tie girl is with them. They will leave
today for Europe. Mrs. Armour said
to a World reporter last night:
eve do not know that a second
operation will be necessary. On the
contrary, we have every reason to
hope that it will not be necessary.
We agreed a year ago when Prof.
Lorenz operated upon Lolita, that we
would take the little girl over to Er-
rope TO see him within a year. He
said that if we would be over there
the following May that would be time
for him to make a second exam1na-
ton of her case and direct what
course we should pursue in bringing
her m.
"Lolita has been getting along
splendidly. She has perfect mobility,
but doesn't know always how to use
it. She is going now to Prof. Lorenz
to be taught the art of walking'
"Can't she walk, now?' asked the
reporter.
"Oh, ves.'' said Mrs Armour
"LOlita has been able to walk since
Prof. Lorenz performed his first OPP
Grafton about year ago. She has
even been taught dancing and has
taken physical culture lessons daily
The only thing now is for her tc
gain complete mastery Of her powers
of mobility, and we thought, and
Prof. Lorenz thought that she coulc
gain this knowledge about the art OF
walking best by being over there lr
Vienna, where he has so many chill
dren learning to walk after similar
operations.
elias there been any disappoint
ing developments in her case since thu

"None whatever Lolita is her.

over to see him within a year. and W.
are fulfilling the promise. All tina

she said, "only the other day, savin'
il would be all right for us to com

Lolita Armour is just 8 years old
She was born in 1896 with double dis

gave up professorship in grea
university for a time to come t.
. America to treat her. The operation

Armours in Chicago, on October L

Armour was able to take exercise
and when the plaster cast was re

NOON LUNCHES
TO Interest the Women,

A bright young business woman who
lives in a big city says: ...
"This is in reference to noon lunches
for working women. I have had much
trouble about my lunch, getting rather
tired of the cold lunches I brought and
which are not very appetizing by the
time the noon hour comes. '.
IT had heard so much about Grape
Nuts I determined to try that food so
had a local creamery deliver half a
pint of cream to the office every day
at noon and this with Grape-Nuts Of
which I kept a package in the office,
I found added greatly to the meal.
Then gradually I ceased to use any
thing but the Grape-Nuts and cream
and for the last four months have had
nothing but this for lunch and am per-
fectly satisfied, am better and stronger
in nerves, body and brain and enjoy
the glow of perfect health
My lunch now costs me about &c a
day and I have gained rs pounds. I
hope some working girl who is bothered
about what to have for lunch will profit
by this. " Name given by Postum Co..

yourself what a scientifically made
food will do

the world with more information Of the
Russian movements than can be expect

tain down on the war stage many wild
rumors may be expected.
While the general staff intimates that
kuropatkin is advancing cautiously and
entrenchlng as he goes, most of the mil
itary critics believe that his greatest
change of success is a quick smash at

Japanese in confusion.
Late dispatches say that an artillery
duel lasted all day Sunday on the cen
ter and right flank.
The statement that Kuropatkin is

cations, would indicate his intention to
make frontal attack, with a possible
turning movement from the west, where
the ground is open, but there the river
bars the way, and no decisive victory Is
seemingly possible unless he can reach

DIVORCE CANON
BEFORE CHURCHMEN
Majority Of Episcopalian Dep
uties' Committee Favor
More Rigid Rule.

Boston, Oct. 1.-THE proposed new
canon on marriage and divorce was on
the order for discussion when the tri-
ennial general convention Of the Epis-
copal church resumed it's sessions to-
day. The sessions of the house Of bish-
ops were continued. Bishop William
Hare of South Dakota gave an address.
The house of deputies, committees on
canons, in charge Of the proposed new
canon on marriage and divorce, sub
mitted lengthy report thru its chair
man, Rev. DR.. F. P. Davenport Of Mem
phis, Tenn. The present canon permits
the remarriage Of the innocent party
where a civil decree was issued for in
fidelity. There has been considerable
dissatisfaction over this canon, many
clcargymen favoring a law to prevent
the remarriage Of any divorced person
while the former partner is living The
majority of the committee approved
this latter idea.

ALABAMA JUDGE
GETS AFTER MOB
Charges Jury to Act as It Would
if Murdered Man Were
i White.

Huntsville, Oct. 11.-Judge Thomas
g. Jones in opening United States
court here today delivered a vigorous
charge to the grand jury with regard
to the recent lynching of Horace
Naples, colored, and the firing by the
mob of the jail in which were confined
federal prisoners. Judge Jones said, in
part:
If you are satisfied that the mob would
not have murdered Naples If he had been
a white man, then every dictate of hui
mainly and justice demands that you re-
turn true bills against the members Of
the mob.
A conviction or acquittal in the courts
Of Alabama for what these parties did Is
no bar to prosecution under the laws OF
the United States.
Judge Jones arraigned the mob in
the severest terms and insisted that
every. citizen must set his face against
lynching for any crime.

BATTLE rs NEAR
Will Kuropatkin Reverse Thin
- Around Liao-yang?
Things

st. Petersburg, Oct. liza battle
upon which the fate Of this years cam
paign in Manchuria depends seems only
few days ahead. Advices from the
front are meager. The strategy of the
forward movement will be concealed, as
were the preparations foTzpShe adyance,
50 that all surnlises as to where General
Kuropatkin intends to strike are mere
guess work. It is not clear whether
General Kuropatkin contemplates
blow on the left, center or right of the
Japanese army, but the fact that stress
is laid upon the capture of Ben sia-pu-
TIE, which opens the road and fords to
Ben-si-hu, twenty miles east Of Liao-
yang, where General Kuroki crossed,
and that Cossacks are already reported
in the neighborhood Of the stream,
might foreshadow an exact reversal Of
the battle Of Liao-yang, this time the
Russian commander thanking and turn
ing Liao--yang with his left as Field
Marshal Oyama did with his right.
Little light has been thrown upon the
considerations which led9General Kuro-
patkin suddenly to assume the offens-
i've; but no word is heard at the war Of
flee intimating that the course savors
of rashness. Officers of the general
staff, while not Understanding the
heavy task and severe sacrifices that are
involved in assuming the offensive,
nevert heless express absolute confidence
that General Kuropatkin has found q
weak point in the Japanese armor.

amounts to $l,lO3,O15 for Hennepin,
