TAKES PROMPT STAND.
German Governments Action Regard.
ING Recent Mail Seizure.

Berlin, July 18.-The German gov.
ernment has taken prompt and firm
stand in regard to the seizure of the
mails of the North German Lloyd
steamer Prinz Heinrich, which arrived
at Alden, July 16, from Hamburg and
Southampton for Yokohoma, by the
Russian volunteer fleet steamer Smo
lensk, July Is, having entered a pro
test against the carrying off of the
mails, and asking for a disavowal OF
the Smolensks action and the return
Of the captured mail sacks
The German government, the foreign
office says, recognizes the right to
search the mails when on board the
vessel itself, but claims the Smolensk
had no right to take off mails in bulk
from the vessel.
The further argument is advanced
that the right of search can only be
exercised by waTship, whereas the
Smolensk traversed the DardenneIles
only recently flying the Russian com.
mercial flag, not assuming the char.
acter of a warship.
The German government has not
taken a positive stand on this last
point, but leaves the question for fu.
ture discussion and settlement. No
answer has yet been received from
Russia
The recent publication by the Russ
of st. Petersburg, of a statement that
Great Britain is about to transfer Wal
Hei Wal to Germany in exchange for
a free hand in the Yang Ste valley is
secuted at the foreign office, where,
it is classed as a revival Of an old
story and as having no foundation.

PREPARING FOR A
TEST OF STRENGTH
Strike of the Butchers on the
Packing Houses.
EACH SIDE is STANDING FIRM
Packers Are Adding to Their Force OF
Nonunion Workmen-Heads of De.
partments and Office Employees In.
structing Recruits.

Chicago, July 1S.-Both sides are
preparing for the test of strength
which will come this week in the
strike of the packing house employees.
To the few men taken on in the
last few days the packers expect to
add many thousands in the next five
Workers who have been hired, it is
claimed, are now on the way to the diff
ferent plants from all corners of the
country. Office employees and heads
Of departments, who have had expert
ence in the killing rooms, have been
called in to help and teach the re-
cruitS.
The packers already are equipping
their plants in western centers with
full crews of men. Within a week
the plants at Kansas City, Omaha and
East st. Paul vii be turning out train
loads Of supplies, according to a posi-.
tive declaration made by one of the
packers.
Armour & Co, Morris G Co., Swift &
Co and SchwartzchiId & Sulzburger
today renewed killing operations on
a much larger scale than during the
first week of the strike.
Representatives of the packers at
the stock yards said they expected to
be able to man without much more
inconvenience; that the difficulty was
not in the procuring OF men, but In
their inability to provide adequate pro-
lection for them while going to and
from work.
The packers profess not to be ap.
prehensive Of a sympathetic strike and
say that coopeTage and similar work
is provided for now Referring to
the threatened strike by ,tremen, a
representative of Armour & Co. said
the plants were equipped with automat
ic stokers, which largely reduced the
work Of the tenders. =
The strikers were in confident
mood today, and appeared to place lit.
tie credence in the reports of progress
made by the packers in filling vacan-
cies. On the contrary, the strikers
declared that many of the nonunion
employees have deserted. q
Nicholas Gier, president of the Pack,
ing Trades Council, said that efforts
had been made by the independent
packing houses to secure the services
of some of the striking butchers. The
efforts had failed. "The men replied, !
said President Gier, THAT it is too
hot to work. This shows that the
men are satisfied to be out, and that
they feel confident of getting their
old places back

TAKE YOUR CHOICE.

Just take your choice An attack of Fever,
with Quinine as the treatment means a
week or ten days lost from Business,
It t-meanszten days of unhappiness for. you
and ten days OF hard work and anxiety for
those who love you. If you are poor man,
your time is worth much to your family,
The rich man might better afford to-" suffer
lossof of $4,000 day, as a result. from
enforced absence from business, than the
poor man can lose the value of his labor.
Johnson's Tonic has two cardinal points that
should immediately commend it to every
thinking man in this country.
First of all, it is harmless Absolutely
harmless. Harmless under all circum-
stances.
Second it is quick; it acts at once. In 80
minutes after it's administration, it enters
the blood and begins to undo the mischief
caused by Malaria. 1t is thesone great med
iclne that never disappoints. Now stake
your choice. Lie in bed for days. or maybe
weeks; and poison your digestion with Qui-
nine, and arise finally with all the life and
Vim taken out of you, or use Johnson's Tonic
and be restored at once to perfect health
No loss of vital force, No loss of flesh, No
waste of precious time. Take your choice.

minds us that we once heard il
said that womens' clubs are like
rhetoric, inasmuch as there is not
a question OF right or wrong, but
Of better or worse. What We
started to say was that sometimes
decidedly common sense, practical
subjects are brought up for discus
sion at the women's clubs. For
instance. Small Courtesies" was
the topic OF a late wcmsns' meet
ing in Denver, and the aphorisms
offered were much to the point.
The New Years resolution sug-
gested by member to be used as
a club motto is worth while. Here
1t is: $50 long as there is so much
that is bad in the best of us and
SO much that is good in the worst
OF us, it does not behoove any of us
to say anything bad OF the rest Of
