REPORT IS DENIED.
Germany Is Not Occupying ANY New
Chinese Territory.

plying to an inquiry of the Associated
Press regarding the excitement at Toxic
over the report that German troops had
occupied Haichou, in the southern part
of Shantnung peninsula says the report
is wholly incorrect and one of several
reports designed to make 1t appear that
Germany is attempting in Shantung
what Russia did in Manchuria. The
German government is doing nothing
in Shantung outside of fulfilling her
treaty agreement with China which
fact has been communicated to both the
Washington and Toxic governments.
The foreign office regards these reports
as spread to mislead the world concern
ing Germany's aims and acts.

The Tick of a Clock.

In recent police court squabble over
a clock one man testified that he could
identify the timepiece in question by
the tick. This statement was received
with derision by most of the courtroom
attaches, the magistrate included, but
later a matchmaker to whose attention
it had been called declared that the
scoffers laughed before they knew
what they We're laughing at.
''Of course you can tell clock by
its tick he said. 81 don't mean that
every clock has an individual tick that
can be recognized by it's friends, but
many ofsthem have, and q parson who
has owned a certain clock for long
while and has studied its style and
mannerisms can, if he has a good ear,
detect that particular tick among a
hundred. Many clocks that are appar-
emily made on the same plan develop
peculiarities in their running gear.
Some canter along at an even pace,
others go by jerks and spurts. Some
are stately and solemn, others frisky
and gay. The ticking Of clocks varies,
too, in rhythm, pitch and dynamics.
| With all these differences in tone is it
any wonder that a man who has meas
ured his life by one clock for several
years can swear even in court to it's
/ particular tick ?''-NeW York Post

eral localities that parties are engaged
in dynamiting fish. OF course they
are; they have been doing it year
after year and will continue until the
offense is made felony, as it should
be, and some inducement is offered
for those who will inform on the mis-
creants who do it. Whenever the leg
islature is in session the country
members have a great deal to saw
about the city sportsman coming out
in the country and catching the fish to
the exclusion of the farmer who has
to work. But it is not the city fellow
who uses dynamite; it is the ruralte
who destroys more fish with one stick
of dynamite than the city man carries
home in two seasons. City fellows
don't dynamite fish, don't set traps for
quail nor shoot grouse sitting on the
ground. If the country members
would let the city legislators have
little more chance at making game
laws it would be better for both par
ties.
