GLENN BURTON
is TOO HANDY
WITH HIS Pen

Wanted for a dozen or more forg.
cries, which we've committed in Seat
tie and the Bremerton Navy Yard,
three marines armed with warrants
of arrest for Glenn Burton arrived in
the city today, and, after an interview
with Shelf Minto, who had him in
custody for similar charges he was
turned over to them.
Burton completed sentence in
the penitentiary last June for OBJ

ter being released he Joined the navy
at Bremerton, and then he deserted.
After his desertion it was found that
he had forged the names of men of
the navy, several of them officers,
and prominent business men of Seat
tie, to checks, and search was
made for him, and he was finally To-
Gated in Jail here. AS the charges
against him by the federal govern
ment were graver than those held
against him here, the sheriff decided
to turn him over to 1t for prosecu-
tion.

UNITED PRESS LEASED wrRE.1

London, Oct. with cables from
the scene of action cut and censors
busy in every important news CEN
ter, Europe tonight knows practical
ly nothing certain of the clash of
arms between Turk and Latin in the
near east That there is fighting,
and probably desperate fighting in
progress is not doubted, but to what
extent the lives of men are going
out in the contest between Christian
and Moslem and to what extent vic
tory is crowning the Italian arms
only scattering and disjointed.
Whether Tripoii, the center of ac-
tion, has finally fallen into the hands
of Italy is as uncertain as the news
from other parts of the theater of
war. Refugees arriving at various
ports of refuge tell varying
stories, Wireless dispatches from
British cruisers indicate that Italy
has actual possession of the African
city, but whether or not Tripoli fell
after a bOmbardment is unknown.
Another big feature of the war sit
uation which is shrouded in mystery
is the fate of the Turkish fleet. Con-
stantinople dispatches, after censor
ship, seem to indicate that it, or the
most of it, is safe in the Dardanelles.
Roman dispatches, however tell an
other story and seem to declare that
the greater part of the Turkish navy
has been destroyed in battle.
Vague stories of the engagement
at Prevasa in which the Duke of
Aoruzzi was undoubtedly victorious,
indicate that his victory may have
been gained at the cost of heavy
loss of life 1t is almost sure that
some of the Turkish vessels engaged
were sunk, but how dearly their vic
tory cost the Italians is still un-
known.
Still another big feature of the war
cloud which hangs over the en-
broiled countries, is the almost GER
tainty that fanaticism throughout
Turkey is reaching a high pitch, and
that a Jehad, or holy war, may be
declared throughout all the Moslem
countries, whose inhabitants, stirred
by the Italian attack, seem convinced
that they must combine to prevent
the utter extinction of the Moslem
states.

Constantinople, Oct. 2.-The Turk

bombardment at Reschadie.
Rome, Oct. 2.-Having cut or

engagements between the Italian and

per year over and above what It
would cost to perform the same service
over roads that are uniformly good.
One of the great world questions Is
that of good roads, and the sooner the
people wake up to the fact the faster
and surer viii our progress be toward
higher and better things.
There is a widespread clamor for a
parcel post and strong influences are
at work to get the federal government
committed to it. The indications are
that it will be tried out on a moderate
scale. Whether the parcel post will
prove a blessing or otherwise is an
open question, and one we will not at
this time discuss. We may say, how
ever, that any attempt at the parcel
post that contemplates extending the
rvice Ia he rural mail routes will
prove a a. continent The condi-
tons Of the puD e roads are such that
for weeks at a time it would be physi-
cally impossible to make delivery. The
carriers are taxed now to the limit.

bad roads it is a heavier burden than
five tin~s the weight over a good road.

and without doubt he weight the car
rier must handle VI ii be many times

conditions will say that without good
permanent highways the delivery OF
packages over rural routes will be a
physical inlpossibility. The first thing
to strive for is good roads; let the

school spirit; there is no anything

ELECTRIC MULES FOR PANAMA
Railroad to BE Butt Along Panama
for Drawing SHIPS From Ocean
TO Ocean,.

The first shipment of steel has been
made from New York for building a
unique electric railway along the Pan
ANA canal for drawing great ships
from ocean to ocean. The enormous
volume of shipping across the isthmus
will be drawn on tho ancient towpath
system, SO that it will be unnecessary
for steamers to proceed under their
own steam. In place of the mules. on
this curious towpath, powerful electric
locomotives will draw the largest
ships smoothly and swiftly across the
continent. A steamer of, say 10000
tons, which the canal will readily
accommodate, is obviously very
heavy burden, and the electric loco
motives will be geared to the tracks
by middle rail in the form of a
rack. The canal commission has ad-
vertised for 100000 pounds of steel
ties, slots and covers and 1900, 900
pounds of steel channels. This rack
railway will be built by the commits
sion, and will be In working order in

Good Faker in the Government Museum

SO they look like the original, and he
seems able to reproduce counter
felt of anything from a raw oyster 10
stone idol. There are a good many
tricks in the trade that have been
handed down from father to son, such
as reproducing the bloom of peach
or scraping an apple to get the veg
etable wax that will make the surface
of a plaster apple look like the orig
inal fruit.
There are always new problems
coming up in the curious art OF max
ing something out of something else.
One of the features Of the big ethnoi-
ogic collection that is now being IN
stalled in the hall of the new museum
building is a series OF groups. These
include the various families of man.
There are Patagonians, Hawaiians'
Eglsimos, all sorts of Indians, a family
of lgorrotes and altogether about ~
groups. Each of them is shown en-
gagged in some characteristic tribal
work. The Eskimos are loading a seal
on a sledge.
If there is anything the museum
cannot get in the original, from rare
trilobite to Corinthian fresco, 1t can
turn Hendley loose with the original,
and he will make an imitation that
would fool an expert.
