RUSH FOR CANDY LIQUOR DROPS
STARTS W. c. 7. IT, CRUSADE

Special Correspondence to The Press
NEW YORK, Oct. Boys, girls
and young women are threatened
with "a danger, the limits of which
are almost incalculable,' according
to Mrs. Helen J. Andrus, president
of the New York County w. G.
T. u, and Health Commissioner
Darlington.
The recent discovery by Mrs. An
drus and Darlington that intoxi-
cants are being sold over the coun-
ters of confectionery stores and
chocolate shops has raised a storm
about the heads of the purveyors of
sweets, and started crusade in
which the temperance leader is
backed by the metropolitan police.
The discovery, while new to Mrs.
Andrus and possibly to the present
generation, is really old. 1t is the
concealing of liquor in chocolates

The search for the mysterious mill
lions of Dom Paul Kruger still goes on.
This romance, or fable, of the Boer
war has taken a desperate hold on
Englishmen. 1t had its foundation in
English avarice. They believed when
the captured Kruger and his Transvaal
government, that many millions of
gold would fall into their hands. They
got paltry sum. Then came the sto-
ry that a ship loaded with Krugers
gold had put to sea and been sunk.
The latest story is that Kruger sold
his bars of gold for comparatively
trifling sum in ready cash, that the
purchasers encased the bars in cement
and shipped them for Europe on the
Dorothea, which went down off Cape
Vidal. A captain Gardiner has secur-
ed a concession to dive for the treas
ure. This is about the twentieth
wreck to be explored for Kruger's gold
but if the willy old leader of the fight
ing burghers had any such vast sums
as are accredited to him, they still
elude the grasp of the nation which
wrested away the liberties of his peo-
pie.

Already possessing the worlds great
sidering the possibilities of a half
billion dollar loan for the building of
other battleships,. Great Britain still
dreams of disarmament. England
would like to disarm, we are told, but
Germany will not, and England is quite
peevish at Germany's stubbornnesS in
the matter. 1t is said the recent Wis
it of Mr.. LloydGeorge to Berlin was
for the purpose of trying to induce
Germany to take a more friendly atti-
tude toward the limitation of arma-
ments. No announcement has been
made as to the success of his mission,
but there is no reason to believe he
met with encouragement. The Ger
man navy act Of 1900 provided for a
1917. At the Hague conference Ger
many declined to modify this pro-
gram, and she is not now likely to do
so at the solicitation of England,
whom she regards as her most proba-
BILE enemy in the next war and whose
motives always are subject to sus-
piciOn at Berlin.
England is not likely to get much
sympathy from the rest of the world
in her present eager desire to reduce
military and naval expenditures. The
arrogance of England is more largely
to blame than any other factor for the
present crushing military burden I'M
der which European powers are bent.
England avowed her determination to
have a navy greater than the combin-
ed navies of any two other powers and
her enormous wealth for many years
made the program possible. But Eng
lands material progress did not keep
up with her military pace, and soon
the tax payers began to cry out under
the burden. Then the Liberal party
won control of the government by a
pledge of old age pensions when there
was no revenue with which to pay the

pensions. Financial difficulties re-
suited inevitably, and now England
wants the other powers to enter an
agreement that will enable her to cut
down naval expenses and still main
tain naval supremacy The idea is not
calculated to appeal strongly at Paris
and Berlin.

Garden Seeds Graft.

Most of those who strive to escape
political humiliation, however, de-
pend upon personal letters, garden
seeds and government publications to
keep themselves in the minds of the
voters. 1t is told of a Western sena-
tor, who made a practice of sending
to the voters of his state every scrap
of government printed paper he could
get hold of, that last winter he caused
to be dispatched to the home folks a
large bundle of Washington city tele-
phone directories. The directories,
meant for distribution around the cap
ital, had been left at the door of his
committee room and he ordered his

package.
The story of Big" Tim Sullivan
and the garden seeds has been told
before. City congressman make a
practice of trading off their garde n
seeds, which their constituents cannot
use. for the government publications
of members from rural districts. Sui
livan's district took in the east side
of New York city where there are no
gardens and where but few voters are
able to read government publications.
Tim got busy at the beginning of
one session and traded all his govern
ment publications to other New York
city members for their garden seeds.
But what in the world do you want

DISARMAMENT DREAMS
AND STILL BUILDS BUT VISION
REMAiNS-HUNTiN kRUGER's
WEALTH.

London, September g. Prophetic
Englishmen see a day in the not dis
tant future when the entire sea shore
of the tight little island" will be
one unbroken line of boulevards,
ablaze at nights with electric lights
and lined with hotels and cottages. A
good part of the coast already has at
tanned this stage of Improvement"
and each year sees a few more miles
granite cliffs of Cornwall so far have
withstood the advances Of the faint of
man, but a number of purveyors of
shore amusements have eyes upon
them and the Cliffs of Cornwall Seen
ic Railway is one of the projects that
have been discussed.
The English are the greatest "holi-
day making" people in the world and
when an Englishman has a holiday his
first thought is of the sea shore. There
is no place in England from which the
shore cannot be quickly and cheaply
reached, and the shore is about the
only thing England has to offer in the
way of outdoor entertainment. But
the Englishman is not satisfied with
the shore as Nature left it; he wants
it parked and wants Coney Island di
versions provided. The men who make
business of catering to the wants OF
holiday makers have got to meet this
demand or fall behind the procession
The automobile is another agency
that is doing lot to destroy the beau
ty of Britain's shores. The wellto-do
want to escape the common crowds
and the motor will take them where
patrons of railroad trains cannot go
The result is the transformation of the
formerly wild coasts into resorts for
the wealthy, and it is here the boule
ward builder is getting in his work. The
nobility and a few of the very wealthy
are able to afford play grounds in the
mountains of Scotland and on the
great private estates in the north OF
England, but there are no accommoda
tions here for the great body of middle
and lower class pleasure-seekers, and
none will be permitted. 1t is to the
seashore they must look, and within a
few years we may expect to see the
entire coast of England outlined in
electric blaze during the summer holi
day period.
