Agreement Reached.

This much has already been agreed
upon between Italy and the powers
and the statement is simply to quiet
public opinion.
The feeling of the Italian public
generally was illustrated in the tri-
umphant progress of the king and
queen and their children from the
castle Racogni to the hunting lodge at
San Rossore near Pisa.
1t is charged that Turkey is not
obeying the international rules vi
warfare. Italy has released all the
Turkish steamers which were seized
in Italian harbors when war was de-
ciared or arriving soon afterwards.
their commanders not having learned
OF the beginning of hostilities. Tur-
key, on the other hand, has raised
the Turkish flag over the steamers
Idalia and Mordialia, which were
seized along the coast and, remaining
them with Turkish crews, is using
them as transports.
!, Thus Is made plain the plan of
Italy in northern Africa.
A great naval display was made be-

der Of the Italian fleet, landed a
force from the battleship Vittoria
Emanuele III at Trobou, occupying
Bomban Gulf and the town of Derna,
500 miles from Tripoli.

CLOTHES THIEF
GOT TWO YEARS
CHARGES AND THERE ARE SIX
MORE AGAINST HIM.

Harold Towns, the young negro who
relieved quite a number of Brunswick
ians of their best suits during the
past week, was yesterday sentenced to
two years on the county gang-but
not for the clothes stealing, but on two
other old larceny charges to which he
plead guilty. One was the theft of
eggs from w. H.\DeVoe's grocery, and
the other the larceny of Capt. H. O..
Berries bicycle.
There are still six charges against
Towns and before he gets through he
will probably serve not less than eight
years. Two other negroes plead guilty
to larceny and are sentenced to one
year each on the gang.

without stopping to take extra clothes

Columbus, O.-When six of eight
witnesses called refused to testify, the
senate bribery probe committee or
dered the arrest of two. This throws
into the courts the test Of the commit
tees legal standing. Although no de-
cision can be reached until long after
the legislature has adjourned and the
committee has expired with it.
After two long secret conference
sessions Chairman Todd swore out
warrants for the arrest of Editor E.
e. Cook of the Columbus Citizen and
Attorney Charles ]. Pretzman, until
recently. president of the Columbus
chamber of commerce and local coun-
sci for the Burns detective agency.
They we're released by Justice of the

Witnesses who had been subpenaed
were Cook, Pretzman, G. c. Lyons, Co

Attorney General Hogan has de-
clared the Dean saloon character law
unconstitutional. The opinion was
rendered by Prosecuting Attorney
Ralph A. Beard of Mahoning county.
The decision is based on what the
lation of the federal constitution.
Lower courts in Ohio have held diff
ferently on the law, some declaring it
constitutional on the grounds that it
is a police regulation. The inquiry
from Beard is relative to the right of
a county auditor pT treasurer to reject
a tax assessed against saloon keeper
who has admitted that he is an alien,
has been convicted of a felony, has
permitted gambling or has sold to
minors or to improper persons.
The law provides that such persons
answering to the effect that they have
been guilty of these practices or that
they are aliens or have been convicted
Of felonies shall be denied the right
to engage il the business under pain
of conviction Of a felony. This pro-
vision, Hogan holds, is violation of
the provision of the constitution
which guarantees that mo state shall
deprive any person Of life, liberty or
property without due process of law,
nor deny to any person within it's
jurisdiction the equal protection of
the law"

Bribery Bill Siuned.

Columbus, O.-Bribery of or by a
public officer, member of the legisla-
ture or councilman, hereafter may be
punished by ten years Imprisonment
in the penitentiary. And in the fu-
ture no briber will be let off with a
fine
Gov. Harmon signed the bill by Tod
of Mahoning making it a penitentiary
offense to solicit, accept or offer a
bribe. Heretofore, courts could let
those convicted of this felony go with
a nominal fee. The measure passed
the senate before the present bribery
scandal broke, and unanimously
passed the house with a whoop after
the first legislators had been arrest
ed. The law, however, cannot affect
the cases Of any of the Legislators,
should they be convicted.
The governor also signed bill by
Warnes compelling teachers in school
districts outside cities to pass an ex-
animation in agriculture; the Erie
bolin bill, which codities laws applic-
able to juveniles, and the Gotschall
bill, preventing the sale of brass
knuckles and similar instruments.

Shippers Win a Victory.

Shippers won victory in the car
demurrage cases before the railroad
commission. The commission set up
new rules which practically coincide
with those under which the interstate
commerce commission operates. Ship
pers asked that they be given Is
hours free time for unloading cars
of a capacity of more than $4,000
pounds, but this was not granted. The
new rules give AZ hours, and for re-
consignment, switching and similar
causes "a hours. Cars containing
freight for transshipment to vessels
are allowed reasonable time. A de-
murrage charge of 81 day is author
ized after expiration of free time.
Allowance is made for delay caused
by weather.

Senator Shaffer is Happy.

Senator Bill" Shaffer of Paulding
county, has declared himself happy
man.
The reason was that Governor Har-
mon had signed his woman's reforma-
tory measure, of which he has been
an earnest champion.
Besides this, Shaffer has seen en-
acted into law all save one of four
pledges which, colleagues say, Shaffer
carried on his letterheads' during the
late campaign. The fourth is the pub
lie utilities measure which awaits a
report from the conference commit
tee.
The other three were the Oregon
plan of choosing United States sena-
tors, the central board bill and the l
per cent tax limit rate.
The women's reformatory was
taken up by him during the session.
The governor, secretary of state, state
auditor and secretary OF state board
of charities are members Of the COM
mission which is to locate, plan, build,
equip and furnish the institution. 1t
is to be located on farm of 300
acres. Several sections of the state
have put in a bid for the location.
Mrs. Edward Orton of Columbus, as
representative of the D. A. R., was
the principal supporter of the bill at
committee meetings.
Senator Shaffer was member of
the committee which Investigated the
girls industrial home last year. A
new reformatory was suggested at
that time.

Naturalization sosrd oruanI.sd.


The Ohio board of administration
organized with Allen W. Thurman Of
Columbus president and DR.. A. F.
Shepard of Dayton, acting secretary.
The members viii assume their du-
ties, preparatory to taking over con-
troll of all state institutions. A con-
ference. will be called in Toledo on
June 1, at which all superintendents
of state institutions will be present.
Changes necessitated by the new law
will be discussed,
Mr.. Thurman says about the first
thing which probably will be done will
be to make few trips of inspection
to other states where the plan has
been in operation. There is much
that needs to be learned, and Thur
man believed that lessons from sister
states might be valuable.
Minnesota has tried the plan for
ten years and has found it good. Illi-
nois has made a success of it. Bid
ding rings around state institutions
have been broken UP and the states
have been saved large sums of money.
West Virginia, whose governor
whipped the plan through two years
ago, over vigorous protests Of trus-
tees of institutions, has found it a
paying investment. Educational insti-
tutions also are under control Of the
board. In one year, to show with
what financial success the scheme
worked, $35O,0OO of appropriations
were turned back into the treasury.
It has been estimated that large
sums of money can be saved in Ohio
through the central purchasing
agency. One of the Senator Cetone
amendments, which the conference
committee was unable to strike out,
through fear the report would be re-
jected, provides that preference must
be given bidders near the institutions.
Another section says the board may
reject any and all bids, while still
another says the contracts for sup
plies are to be awarded lowest bid
ders.
Taken together, the whole act will
give the board it's own will, and,
though Objectionable, the Cetone
emasculatory amendment will not Sc
riously cripple the central purchasing
scheme originally intended.
A market also is provided for the
products of institutions, assuring fair
market prices and consumption for
all that can be produced.
The work of the board also will SIM
plify that of the finance committee of
the legislature. Heretofore each of
the institutions was obliged to go be-
fore the committees and ask for what
it wanted, while legislators took fire.
quent junkets to the institutions.
Little might be learned in these per
functory inquiries.
At the next general assembly the
boards fiscal officer will be ready
with lump estimates, showing what
amounts will be necessary for eff
cient management. That feature Of
the act alone should save the assem-
bly, two weeks of time and consider
able expense.

CRIMINAL NEGLECT
OF SKIN AND HAIR

Cuticura Soap and Ointment do SO
much for poor complexions, red,
rough hands, and dry, thin and fall
ing hair, and cost so little that it is
almost criminal not to use them.
Think of the suffering entailed by
neglected skin troubles-mental be-
cause of disfiguration-physical be-
cause of pain. Think of the pleasure
of clear skin, soft white hands and
good hair. These blessings are often
only a matter of little thoughtful,
timely care, viz:-warm baths with
Cuticura Soap, assisted when neces-
sary by gentle anointings with Cuti-
cura Ointment. The latest Cuticura
book, an invaluable guide to skin and
hair health, will be mailed free, on
application to the Potter Drug &
Chem. Corp, Boston, Mass.

The operation of loosening and
stirring the soil is usually spoken Of
as tillage or cultivation. Tillage in
cludes both the preparation before
planting and the working of the soil
after the crop is planted, while cul-
tivation includes the stirring of the
soil after the crop has been planted.
For most soils it is best to practice
deep tillage in the preparation of the
seed bed and shallow cultivation after
the crop is planted. Deep tillage
gives the plants a large amount of
room in which to send out their roots
in search of plant food, allows the
soil to drink in the rainfall more free
ly, and permits the air to enter the
soil and help in the preparation of
plant food Shallow cultivation checks
the rapid loss of water from the soil
by forming a loose blanket over it's
surface, kills weeds, and helps to ad'
NIT air to the surface layer of soil.
If the soil is hard and lumpy the
little roots of the corn plant cannot
penetrate far into it, but must feed

and the plants are deprived of their
supply of moisture stored in the deep
layers of soil.
If allowed to do so, much of this
capillary water will pass on up
through the soil and be evaporated
from the surface without having been
of any service to the plants. To pre-
vent this We practice shallow cultiva'
tion, which keeps a blanket over the
surface of the soil. Have you ever no.
ticed how moist the soil is under a
stone or board, even when the sur
rounding ground is dry? The stone
or board has kept the air away from
the surface of the soil and prevented
evaporation. When shallow cultiva-
tion is practiced, the thin layer OF
stirred soil soon becomes very dry,
but by keeping the air away it serves
to prevent the deeper soil from losing
its moisture by evaporation. This
loose blanket, or mulch, as it is called
also helps to absorb rainfall and to
prevent it from running off the sur.
face.

Stone ouarries to be Started Soon.

Members of the board of peniten-
tiary managers stated that within a
month work on the state stone quar-
ries would be started. 1t is thought
that employment will be given 200
prisoners. Arrangements are now be-
ing made for installing necessary ma
chinery. Stone, which is to be quar-
ried and crushed on the grounds, is to
be used for state purposes, and may
also be sold in the open market. AS
the demand for this article is good,
it is expected that large number of
prisoners will be given work, who
would otherwise be idle.
