THE DUTCH
ARE ANGRY
RELATIONS BETWEEN METH.
ERLANDS AND VENEZUELA
RUPTURED BY PRESI-
DENT CASTRO'S AC-
TION-PORTS MAY
BE BOMBARDED

The official announcement from
Amsterdam Monday that The Meth
erlands government has decided to
make a hostile naval demonstration
against Venezuela, was received with
great interest and a certain amount
of satisfaction by the officials OF the
state and navy departments at Wash
ington.
The Dutch propose to demand an
apology from President Castro for
his high-handed acts and in the event
that this is not properly forthcoming,
will doubtless take energetic steps to
compel redress Whether these will
assume the form OF a peaceful block
ade or bombardment of La Guayra
and Puerto Cabello or the seizure OF
the customs houses at the two most
important Venezuelan ports, It is not
definitely known. Because OF the big
interests in Venezuela OF Great Brit
ain, Germany, France, Italy and the
United States, all of whom are smart
ing under Castro's insulting attitude
and his arbitrary cancellation OF the
rights of their citizens in his coun-
try, it is possible that the Dutch gov
eminent will consult with those ma
tions before deciding, definitely upor
her course of action and invite theii
cooperation.
That something has got TO be done
to bring Castro to realization of the
fact that he is not above international
law has long been realized in this
| country, but the hands OF the UniteC
States have been tied largely because
| rs disputes with Castro have beer
Chiefly OF commercial nature anC
| America is ON record as opposing the
use of force in the collection of debts
Then, too, congress only has the pow
| err to declare war and the sentimen
in that body while one OF decided ir
ritation against the arrogant Venezu
| elan president, has not been aroused
to the extent of authorizing the us,
of force against an American state
That one CT the aggrieved Europe
an countries should take the initiative
in bringing Castro to terms is, there
| fore, welcomed here. In the case o
the Dutch government against Ven
ezuela there is more involved thar
the mere satisfaction of the financia
claims OF her citizens. The powe
and self-respect of Queen WSlhel
mina's government has been touched
Venezuela has seized the Dutch Snip
plying between the Dutch posses
sions of Aruba and Curacao and ha
| imprisoned their crews.
She has directed numerous hostile
measures against the trade and bust
ness of the island OF Curacao. Tn
der Castro directions the oficia
correspondence of the Dutch ministe
has been opened in violation OF tn
first principles of the internationa
comfy, and. to crown all, the Dutc'
minister himself, J. III. DeReus. ha
been summarily expelled from Ven
ezuela The limit of patience wa
reached with this last act OF Castro
| 1t is thought probable that tn
as far as She pleases in trying t
force Castro TO terms with the limta
ton that she shall not attempt t
seize any Venezuelan territory. TIL

KOSCIUSKO DEMOCRATS
ARE SORE
Wanted Senatorial Nomination for
Nussbaum.
Warsaw Tirnes-l

Il car be stated that John W. Nus
baum went to- Plymouth confident
that he would receive the nominal
tion, and his friends felt mat he
would have no trouble in landing the
coveted honor Consequently they
are disappointed over the outcome.
Pointing to the fact that Kosciusko
has larger Democratic vote than
MARSHALL county and that Senator
Parks, a Marshall county man, for
eight years has been in the senate
they argue that Xosciusko this year
should have had the candidate, thus
taking the Republican view on this
particular point as between the two
counties These friends of Mr.. Nus
baum also declare that the upsetting
of his senatorial aspirations was &C.
complished by the smooth work of a
certain law firm that does not have
its. Office in Plymouth and that the
sidetracking OF the Warsaw man was
the result of a plot to down him.
Some indication that there may be
much truth in this is evidenced by
the fac that although A. G. Wood
was not an avowed candidate for the
senatorship his name was used freely
in connection with the nomination
and the fact that Mr.. Nusbaum had
ali the delegates from Kosciusko
county except two-just enough to
defeat him If he allowed his name to
go before the convention-lends col
or to the belief upon the part of the
friends of Mr.. Nusbaum that the
Democratic ringsters rad slated him
for a steam-roller squeeze, and SO
they gave it to him good and proper,
but in a way that these ringsters
could easily cover up their tracks.
BE that as It may, Democrats OF
Kosciusko county will not take kind
ly to the giving away of the sena-
torial nomination. for they believe
that it should have come to this
county. 1t is understood that Mr.
Nusbaum has been promised" the
mayoralty nomination; but that event
is far off and the ringsters will have
plenty of time to hatch another plot
against Mr. Nusbaum, who thus has
been laid on the shelf"

RULES FOR SWIMMERS.
Do Not Eat Crabs and Milk After
ward, the Best Maybe.

Prof. Geo. Dubbson, in a paper to
be read before a medical society al

SENT BY SHAW OF PERSIA,
Mira Goiem Acrobats Released BY
Monarch to Join Circus.

The shah of Persia has contributed
TO the varied program offered this
season by Ringing Brothers Worlds
Greatest shows by releasing from hin
court entertainers the great Mira
Golem family OF acrobats for Their
first and probably only tour of Amer
lean cities. The release was obtain
ed by an envoy of the circus station
ed at Constantinople through the
American legation at Teheran, Persia.
Until Their arrival this spring in
America the performance of this
wonderful family had never been wit
messed outside the Shah's court.
Other famous acrobats with the
Ringing Brothers this year are the
Patty Brothers, who dance, skip the
rope and walk up and down stairs
on their heads and without the use
Of their hands There is no other &C,
like it on earth. A novelty of skin
and beauty is presented by the Mar
nello- Marnitz acrobats from Italy.
who while turning hand springs and
somersaulting from each Others
shoulders, play operate select 'ons on
silver bells. This act was declared
last winter the best dressed and most
unique ever seen in Europe.
The great Belfords from Australia,
Marguerite and Hanley of Germany.
Burgess and Clara from France, the
ST. Icons from France, the eight Car
nellos from Spain and the world-fa-
nous Ballots are others on the aero
batic list
AS the acroba's excel so do also
the riders, clowns, aerialists, gym
nasts. animal trainers, clowns and
tumb1ers represent the very cream OF
the worlds talent. The performance
has new and elaborate spectacle,
the menagerie has been added to and
the climax of the excellent bill i.
capped by the thrilling and awful en-
actment of the automobile double
somersault in mid-air, a performance
accomplished by young French
woman, Mile La Belle Roche, who
because of her daring and superhu-
man nerve, becomes the most wond-
erful woman in the world today.
When the big show visits Plymouth
on Monday, Aug. it will be observed
at a glance that it has grown very
considerably since last seen here. All
canvas and other equipment is new
and the parade set for the forenoon
sparkles with fresh paint and gold.

LIVING OFF A
SMALL TRACT
STATE GEOLOGICAL SURVEY
COLLECTS MASS OF IN
FORMATION-FIN DS
MANY I FLOWING
WELLS IN THIS
SECTION.

The importance of the under
ground water supply in Indiana and
the demand for accurate information
regarding it, have led the United
States Geological Survey to make de-
tailed studies of the underground
waters in the Hoosier State. For
two years Messrs. F. c. Clapp and S.
R. Caps spent several months in
portions of northern and eastern In
diana Investigating ground water sup
plies, and a mass of information has
been obtained, which is being assem-
bled for publication IN one of the
regular series of water supply papers
issued by the department
AS a result of this investigation
several unexpected results have come
to light. For example, the unneces-
sary and serious pollution of surface
and ground waters that is going on
every where. and the necessity for
laws to prevent these evils, and the
great amount of artesian water that
is going to waste.
The area investigated includes l9
counties in north-central Indiana. ex-
tending from the southern boundary
OF Hendricks, Marion and Hancock
countines, northward to the Michigan
line. While, on the whole, the geol-
ogists were impressed with the excel
lent quality of northern Indiana
water, this must be recognized as due.
not entirely TO any real superiority
over other regions, but largely to the
fact that The progress of civilization
has driven all enterprising commun-
tiles, as well as individuals, far below

supplies than can be obtained OH OF

TIRELY FEASIBLE. AT
ANY RATE, IT AFFORDS
AN OPPORTUNITY
TO SUSTAIN
LIFE.

1t rs reported on good authority
that in the region of irrigation a
single acre of land is sufficient to
support the averaged sized family.
OF course, the family does not have
many of the luxuries but the COM
forts are in plenty, and contentment
finds an aoiding place in the house
hold This single acre is not farmed
as many farmers farm who have
broad acres spread out in endless pro-
fusion. The most intense methods are
used in tilling the soil AS for the
labor expended, it S not SO intense as
many put on the larger farms.
While it would not be possible for
the average family to exist from the
products OF single acre in this part
OF the country, it is altogether feas-
ible for the average family to gain a
very comfortable living with many
of the Injuries from a tract of land
not exceeding FIVE acres. On a small
farm of FIVE acres the best methods
of cultivation would, of course, have
to obtain. But there are SO many
possibilities that can be utilized TO
make a profit. An hundred hens
could be kept on the small farm, and
they alone would go long way in
supplying the needs of the family
One cow would help in the way OF
food products, while there would be
extra milk to sell Small fruits
would add another item OF income,
and the vegetables would supply an
other source of proh. Bees are not
very difficult to keep, and few col
onies would help wonderfully in max.
ing up the budget of income

it may be mentioned that one farmer
west OF the city has about three
thousand pounds of honey ready for

has marketed over thousand pounds
at 20 cents the pound. All of this is

and the care is Insignificant when
compared with the profits made or
the investment True. every season
is not so favorable for honey making

of years it will be found that the bee:

With all the minor things that the
