She will preach to her people that this
condemnation was because the Presi-

conclusion too far fetched that war

Senator Lewis entered the Massa-

quest of President Wilson. While in
Chicago Thursday he received tele-
gram from Secretary TuInulty and i'm
mediately cancelled several political con-
ferences to hasten to this state
Just now before the nations of the
world tremble two serious problems,
said the Illinois senator. "One is the ef-
fort of President Wilson and his adj
ninistration to maintain before the
orient, particularly Japan. that doctrine
of home rule which our fathers in

mocracy-the right of the states to regu-
late and control their home affairs,
their schools, their lands, the manner
and kinds Of people who should mingle

late it.
Classed as "Great Problem"
''rhis question as to whether this
privilege shall continue as against the
oriental theory OF government, or
whether our national government shall
attempt to override it merely at the de-
mand Of a foreign nation, is the great
problem at Washington which Presi-

PoIicewomen Needed.

Brooklyn Eagle: Nobody knows how
the experiment will work as yet, but
there is hint Of it's coming success
in the fact that the head Of the detec-
tive bureau welcomes the appointments
and says he wishes he had twenty-fiv
more women, as they can learn things
which his men can't. For the present
| the chief use proposed for the women
is to protect women and girls at the
bathing beaches and other public re-
sorts from the opportunities of men
For this work the women are assigned
| in pairs, one wearing plain clothes
not so plain as to betray her occupa-
ton as do the shoes of plain clothes
men in New York-while the other
wears the official uniform of blue
Jacket, skirt and hat or cap without
feathers and frills.
Our own police stories from Coney
Island show that there is need for this
beaches and the fact that the first
Chicago youth approached by Chi
cago policewoman fed at the sight of
her star, argues we'll for the innova-
tion. The success of the women will
depend on how closely they follow the
direction Of their chief not to be "too
nosey," or too stern" and not to
talk more than is necessary" The
possession Of the policeman's whistle,
with which to summon the men on the
force in case of trouble, ought to en-
able these women to prevent good
deal of mischief. if they are of the
right sort, who are not discouraged by
the roughness or responsiveness Of some
of the things they are thrown in the
midst of.

New Animals From Egypt for
: the National Geological Park

and three Arabian, one Korin and one
dOrcaS gaZelleS. Nearly all are repre-
sentatives of species not before includ-
ed . in the Washington zoo, and the
cheetahs will be the only animals of
this sort in the park. There Is at
present only one elephant, a male,
from India, and as he is in the neigh
borhood Of some 40 to SO years old
the two new members Of this family
which are practically babies, will be
valuable accessions. One Of the ele-
plants is about years old, stands
five feet six inches, while the other
the female, is six months younger and
is only about four and one-half feet
in height. 1t is estimated that they
weight about 700 and 900 pounds
respectively, and yet the male even
will look like pigmy beside the sole
representative in the park which
weighs in the neighborhood Of 1000
pounds. African elephants are usually
priced by dealers at from $4,000 to
$4,000 each, but these cost considerable
less, having been bought from the
government at GieZa.
Arrangements for the housing Of
the new arrivals have been under way
for some time at the geological park
in Washington, where the old elephant
structed for their reception. Besides
the house, good-sized yard adjacent
to it is being made ready, so that the
animals which are permitted to live
in the open can be suitably located.
Mr.. Blackbourne, head keeper of the
national biological park, who made a
special trip abroad for the purchase
Of these animals, has reported their
safe arrival in Boston. With the ship
ment, he left Port Said on July Is on
the steamship Sturmfels, of the Hansa
line Of Bremen, and reached Boston on
Aug. S, passage of two weeks.
His report to the superintendent of
the park states that all his charges
are in good health, having proved good
sailors, en- voyage and that he is now
attempting to hasten the disembarca-
ton OF them. This will probably be
accomplished in Boston but on ac-

mails must pass through quarantine

concerning the future and present OF

After the visit to the army service
schools Secretary Garrison and Gen.
eral Wood visited the United States
military prison, General Wood harsh
ly criticizing a number of conditions
found there. He requested Secretary
Garrison to issue an order at once
abolishing the use of stripes on the
prisoners. General WOOD further
/ complained of the system in vogue
whereby an army man who has serv-

| to the secretary that in many In
; stances of minor offenses, these men
after serving sentences should be re-
stored to duty.

system, methods of working prisoners
and the matter of dishonorably dis
charging soldiers who fail ON occasion
to report for duty. Secretary Garri
