AN ARMY OE COOKS.

Compulsory military service for men,
urges a German female advocate Of
women's rights. should be Offset by
compulsory domestic service for wom-
en-. On the theory that life in bar
racks and drill i'm the manual of arms
have benefited German manhood, she
asks. why will not life in the kitchen
and exercise in the use Of pots and
pans similarly raise German woman
hood?
If Germany ever organizes a stand
ing army of cooks it may force all
Europe to follow its lead. Culinary
CONSUMPTION is severe measure, but
when enforced in Germany other ma.
tons might be expected to adopt it.
There would be more reason in doing
so than in following Germany's lead in
miltarism. There is more real need
of cooks the world over than of sol
diers. 1t is possible to get along with.
out fighting but not without eating.
The only question is whether the
imperial army of cooks could be re
duced to the same machine-like dis
cipline and precision OF habits as the
Kaisers army. Would they submit t.
orders with the same blind obedi
ence? Would they tolerate being uni
formed all alike, and in matters .
personal adornment submit to author
ity with the same meekness as the re
cruits reports for duty when the tim,

EDITOR WAS NEARLY ROBBED.

| EDITOR WAS NEARLY ROBBED.
WEST GROVE, Pa, December g.
In an explosive column of righteous
indignation Editor Hitchler of the Ok
ford News denounces a prominent
/ Lancaster county woman, who he al
leges sought to rob him of his board
money, hidden in a pigeonhole of his
desk at the News office.
The editor is a bachelor and from
time to hime hides away trihe of his
weekly stipend to pay his hotel bill.
Some of his barbed-wire sentiments
relative to the incident are:
Now to steal at all is crime, but
to steal from an editor is the height
of human degeneracy. To hold up a
banker or plumber or some other
form of plutocrat is excusable under
certain circumstances.
The person who will deliberately
attempt to separate an editor from
real money is a brute, with a soul no
larger than could be incased in the
appendix of an especially diminutive
mosquito.
A little lying and slandering we can
stand, but even if the smallest sum
of money is stolen from us we are
broke.

Harbin, Manchuria, Feb. 1S.-Rus-

eating the bubonic plague conditions.
They are preparing a report for st.
Petersburg in which they will state
that the ravages of the plague are far
more terrible than eastern reports
had intimated and that fully 100000
have already perished. They found
entire villages turned into great char.
mel houses, sheltering none but the
dead and the dying. -+..
The sweep of the disease is daily be.
coming stronger and the report will
state that unless immediate measures
to combat it in a colossal scale, are
devised, Northern Manchuria soon
will be virtually depopulated. The
commissioners declare that their ex
periences constitute a recital of hor
rors without equal in modern times.
The streets of Hardin today recall
the old descriptions of the cities OF
Europe when they were PROSTATE un
