THE EFFECT OF
THE BIG STICK
RooseveIt's Speech Will Increase
the Political Difference.
NO COMMENT FOR PUBLICATION
Whether England Likes His Speech
or Not Makes No Difference to
ex-President-He Keeps
Rustling As Usual.

London, June Especial: Govern
ment officials and members of the cab
met are convinced Roosevelt's speech
yesterday at Guild Hall in which he
.rebuked England's administration of
affairs in Egypt viii increase the polit-
ical difficulty that confronts England.
Owing to the semi-official character of
his visit as representative of the
u. S. at the funeral Of the late King
English officialdom will make no com
ment for publication regarding the
speech, but nothing could be palmer
a fuse that will touch off an upheaval
in Egypt. There were comparisons
between Roosevelt and the Lord Sack
ville-West incident of October, 1888,
when the then British ambassador to
the u. S. was dismissed by Cleveland
because he privately wrote a letter
advising a citizen to vote for Cleye-
land. 1t is not contended the cases
are parallel, but it is conceded Roose-
welt has been guilty of diplomatic i'm
propriety.
Whether England liked his speech
or not apparently made no difference
to him. for he was rustling about in
his usual mood, guest of honor at
luncheon of the Irish Nationals, men,
bers of parliament, at the Carleton
house presided over by John Red
mond, the Nationalist leader.

Louisville, KY, June 1.-The most
persistent questioning of Mrs. Jo-
sePh Vending who is held at the
police station here charged with
having been an accessory to the muir
der OF little Alma Kellner, whose mu-
lilated body was found in a subcellar
OF st. Johns parochial school here,
has failed to shake the woman's first
declaration that she knew nothing
about the crime.
She adheres to her statement that
a ring and pin found in a trunk at
her home. both of which have been
identified as the property Of the MUIR
dered girl, were given her by boy
and further than her admission that
she has seen nothing of her husband
who was a janitOr at the school, since
his disappearance OH January IA,
when he drew 500 from the bank,
she will say nothing about him. Wend-
ling is about thirty years old and his
parents live in France.
Weave Chain About Man.
Diligent investigation by the police
and detectives is weaving a strong
chain of circumstantiaI evidence about
the missing janitor, for whose arrest
the police department spread q drag
net which will sweep every part OF
The country.
Clothing which he is known to have
worn bears numerous stains which
the detectives confidently pronounce
as traces of blood. A hat recovered
from an old barrel where Mrs. Wend'
ling stated she had thrown 1t about
the time of the janitor's flight, also
bears numerous similar discolora'
tons.
Trap Door Is Hidden.
The trap door to the subcellar was
so effectively hidden that its existence
could have been known to no one
not intimately acquainted with the
building. The keys to the school
building, say the police, were always
in Weddings possession. vending
was employed one month before the
disappearance of Alma Kellner.

DAILY DIET HINTS
BY DR.. r. j. ALLEN
Food Specialist.
BANANA AS MoNo-DIET.

Bananas are commonly re-
garded as indigestibIe. They
appear to be lndigestible only
because they are not thorough
ly masticated, because they are
mixed with incompatible foods,
especially meats, and because
they are eaten unripe by many.
No substantial food Is more d.
qestible than the banana when
properly eaten. An exclusive
diet of banana for thirty days
proved that they give great
strength and endurance. Be-
cause containing little proteid,
and that uneoaeulated by heat
and fully sssimilated, the in
furious effect of albuminoid poi
soning is avoided; and being
easily diaested, the nervous en-
erqy ordinarily consumed In d.
qestion is saved for work; and
the fruit sugar, which vs. more
than 30 per cent. Of the herb

speaking a fruitl supplies the

lar energy. With two table,

Of the banana is not yet fully
recognized, although its con-
sumption Is steadily increasing.

The peculiar diversity of soil and
climate in the state of Washington
makes seed growing of ii large variety
of seeds practicable. 1t is a well
known fact to all hort1culturalists that
the different plants require different
soil and different climate to produce
perfect or even approximately perfect
specimens. In the state of Washington
this diversity of soil and climate is
found to probably greater extent
than anywhere else in the world and
the Chas. II. Lilly company are now
devoting each year larger acreage to
seed growing, having several hundred
acres in vegetable seed and also hand
ling each year great many carloads
of Red Glover, Alsike, Vetches, onion
sets and Alfalfa seed produced in
Washington Oregon and Idaho. These
field seeds wherever they originate
are all shipped to the big warehouse
and cleaning plant located at Seattle,
carefully reclaimed, sacked and tested
for purity and termination. AS an
additional check and precaution,
samples of the seed after being clean
ed are submitted to the Department
of Agriculture for their test as to
purity and termination.

it's life after it leaves the brooder.
Even the up-to-date chicken ranches
are seldom provided with the proper
equipment for caring for the young
chicks at this intermediate stage of
it's growth. A good many people
think they have made adequate provi-
sion for them when they turn them
into the so-called ''colony coops,"
which are practically boxes two or
three feet in height and maybe four
to six feet in length. There could
not be a greater mistake made than
this. The chicks need lots of air and
they ought to be in roomy colony
houses, six by eight feet at least and
six feet in height in front and with
an open (wire) front at that. The
roost should be we'll off the ground,
away from the odor of the droppings.
In such a house the chicks will thrive
and astonish you with their growth
but In the stutfy colony coops they
will inhale bad smells and get over

EASTERN POULTRYMEN
INSURGE

From the following item clipped
from Commercial Poultry, 1t would
seem that the poultry raisers of the
eastern states are awakening to the
fact that there is something for them
to do, something coming to them in
the way of protection from the vested
interests. Good luck to you brothers
and may little of your spirit cross
the great divide and strengthen the
courage of the western poultry rails
