London, Dec. 4.-Russa has re-

She has declared that she will not

nobody" excaims the Novoe-Vremya
commenting on the German chancellor
giving prominence to the idea of war;
The war parties both in Russia and
Austria Hungary seem to hold the
public platform for the moment
against the peacabIy disposed min
listers of those countries. Any un-
toward incident or provocative act on
the part of Servia would in the opin-
len of diplomats here, in moment
set Austria-Hunsary in motion and
this probably would loosen forces in
Russia which the government of the
Russian empire would find itself un-
able to resist.
The Novoe-Vremya continues:
"History is repeating itself but it is
not so easy now to force Russian
diplomacy into faint-hearted re-
treat"
The immediate Withdrawal of the
vast Russian deposits in the German
banks is advocated by many of the
Russian journals.
Should Greece persist in her refusal
to adhere to the armistice signed yes
terday it would necessarily throw
Bulgaria more closely into the en-
brace of Servia and give fresh en-
couragement to the Servian resistance
to the European powers, who are
practically unanimous in condemning
the Servian demands. If Austria-Hun-
gary should attempt, as has been sug-
gested to employ Roumania to keep
Bulgaria quiet in the event of an
Austrian Servian war. it is thought
such action would only enlarge the
area of conflict and precipitate gen.
eraI catastrophe.
Any intervention by Roumania. it is
argued, would inevitably compel Rus I

The Heating Plant Proposition

A business man who is interested
in the matter was talking today to
B. Ermels, the foundry and heating
plant, man, as to the feasibility OF
a union heating plant for the bust
ness houses in the main block on
the north side of Second street. Mr..
Ermels agrees with those concerned
that this sort of plant would be
a big saving in expense in putting
it in, as well as another saving In
running it, over the plan of each
building having its individual plant.
Mr.. Ermels looks with considerable
favor upon the proposition Of put
ting union plant in himself and
running 1t, furnishing heat to the
patrons at so much per month, as
may be agreed upon. This would
certainly be the wisest and best So
luton of the problem. Either that,
or the business men concerned
should put in the plant and own it
themselves and pay a janitor by
the month to run it. In either case
the users of heat would not be both
cred with the care of plant in
their own business house, nor the
individual buying of coal in much
smaller amounts than would be nee
essary for a union plant, etc.
The business men in the block
referred to should get together at
once and formulate plans for carry
ing through this project.

9-year-old Freddie Asplund of this
city if he had happened in police
court Saturday when the young
criminal prodigy gave lecture to
the police on how to pick lock, rob

finally, get out Of Jail when once
you are in.
This young scapegrace, arrested
for robbing a house, proudly told
how he had been taught the tricks
OF burglary and petty thievery by a
man of his acquaintance and recited
some Of his experiences at robbery.
He said part of his education along
this line was at motion picture
shows and at melodrama theatricals,
to which he was taken by his tutor
in crime. He began it at 4 years
old, he asserted. The lad is in the
hands of probation officers.

Burlington Bridge Near Stanton o.
Fire When Train Appeared.

Creston, July S.-What might
have resulted in disastrous wreck
was averted yesterday when fire was
discovered in the 300 foot bridge,
which spans the Tarkio river one
half mile west Of Stanton, Ia, just
in time to prevent the Burlington
fast train No. from running onto
the burning structure.
The main part of the bridge un-
derneath was on fire when it was
discovered and but for the timely
arrival of the Stanton fire depart
ment the bridge would have been
destroyed and traffic held up for a
week or ten days for its rebuilding.
The passenger train, which was
scheduled to cross it between noon
and / o'clock, was held up until 5
o'clock in the afternoon to allow re-
pair work to be done before 1t was
considered safe.
