AS Is well known, Sweden's famous
explorer, Sven Hedin, has for years
been urging upon his country the ne
cessity of strengthening the national
defense, and now 1t looks as If DR..
Fritjof hansen, the distinguished
Morse explorer, has taken upon HIM
self similar role in Norway. Refer
ence to this was made last week, but
no details we're given. The famous
explorer has thrown all his influence
into the scale Il, favor of the move
ment to increase the Norwegian army
and navy and build Notifications at
crucial points. Other Norwegians or
note are also lending their influence
to the movement, as for instance Hans
Aanrud, the author, who points to the
fate of Finland. In his address to the
people of Norway DR.. Nansen uses
this dramatic language: 1T is useless
to arm ourselves against great
power it Is often said. But who will
contend that VIC are to stand alone
against AM great POWER? Such con-
dition in Europe is unthinkable. Inc
ole thing certain is that the question
of the effectiveness or ineffectiveness
of our defense In case OF an attack VIII
depend wholly upon whether or not we
are adequately prepared to fight. Our
country is excellently adapted for de-
Tense at comparatively small sacri-
fees. IL only we make use of our OPP
portunities as we ought. Our long
barrier of reefs is a splendid protec-
ton on the ocean side. as is familiarly
known by all who have cruised among
the thousands of bars and reefs along
the coast, but we must be prepared TO
take advantage of the great possibili-
ties that are here offered. Our forests
offer many important advantages In
war on land, If we know how to make
use of them We must have adequate
armament and training; 1t is too late
when the enemy crosses the border.
II we have not prepared ourselves be-
fore, It will then indeed be useless
It is vain to regret the past when our
people are being slaughtered like
cattle"
A prominent Norwegian marine In
surance company has published re-

according to which it appears that,
both as regards number and tonnage,
steam vessels lead sailing vessels by
the ratio of three to one. Not count

department Of Meurthe ct Moselle.
early today. In the early hours of the
morning. just as the first faint streaks
of dawn were showing In the sky,
big Zeppelin dirigible sailed out Of the
fog. II was flying low and as II passed
over the church of st. Jacques guam
tity of high explosive was dropped. II
missed the church and fell In the
square alongside. The conclusion
when it exploded was terrific. One of
the sidewalks OF the church was demol-
isEed and a patrol of troops stationed
there was annihiliated. The dirigible
then proceeded over the Notifications,
dropping other bombs there and de-
moIishing part of the embankment.
French aviators were despatched
from Nancy today to locate the Yep
pelin dirigible that dropped the
bombs on the town of Luneville.
There is intense indignation In on
cial quarters over the action OF the
Germans. While II Is admitted that
in war II In the privilege of an enemy
to infiict every possible damage on
the Sighting forces OF his opponents
the dropping Of bombs on unprotect-
cd towns without warning Is declared
to be a violation OF the rules OF civ
ilized warfare. 49,.
According to the reports available
here the bombs dropped at Luneville
were made up Of Germany's new high
explosive and were particularly dead
". The Is soldiers killed are said
to have literally been blown to pieces.
Bodies were rent into small pieces
and heads and limbs torn into shreds.
II Is stated that the Germans tried
TO destroy the historic palace OF Lor-
raine, but that their bombs missed
the mark.

German Liner Belieped
Carrying CoaIf TO
Cruisers oUU.S. Coas1

NEW YORK, Aug. 4.--The North
German Lloyd liner Kron Prinz Will
helm Is today steaming along the At
lantic coast In search of three Ger
man warships. The liner has no pas
sengers aboard, but Is carrying an
enormous cargo Of coal and pro-
visions. 1t was reported after she
had cleared port last night that her
mission was to locate the German
warships and supply them with fuel
and provisions. After passing the
Ambrose channel light she turned
east, the usual route OF steamers
bound for Europe. It is now believed
the vessel may return here without
proceeding TO Bremen.
With only her masthead and side
lights burning. the Kron Prinz will
helm slipped from New York harbor
last night Upon her forward desk was
q mysterious covered box, which ON
GERS OF the vessel said contained an
extra crank shaft, but was believed to
be four-inch rife.
Just outside the Ambrose light, the
KIon Prinz wilhelm passed the Ward
liner, Seguranca, from Santiago, Cuba
Cmcers OF the Seguranca said the Will
helm was tlsen sailing with only her
masthead. port and starboard lights
burning and was headed south.
The destination OF the Wilhelm was
given as Bremen at the steamship
Offices today. but II was understood In
shipping circles that she might be ex-
pected back In this port within few
days. Her real mission, IL Is declared,
Is to supply the German cruisers, Ores
den. Strassburg and Karlsruhe with
coal and provisions
These three cruisers are at sea.
Their exact position ~ unknown here,
but II Is expected that after locating
them the Kron Prinz Wilhelm may re-
turn to New York under the pretext
of having broken down or being order
ed back because OF the danger of cap.

Coroner Burgess turned the verdict

recommendation that he take action.
Kunze. who lived on the Gamble-rd,
q mile east of Woodward-ave,. was
waiting for a street car at Woodward

struck and killed by the auto driven
by Dunno.

Coroner Burgess, says, that there was
no obstruction OF any sort to obscure
DUNES view of the street. No street
car or other vehicle was In the way.
Dunno sped along Woodward-ave.,
on the right side Of the street, until
he neared the place where Kunze was

street. directly upon Kunze.
The inquest was first set for July

AFTER THE VACATION IS OVER

These vacation things are not what
they are cracked up to be. Their
charm is absurdly overrated, and the
frightful aftermath when the mis-
cradle vacationer, with his frolic
ended and his money spent, has to
mount the treadmill and resume the
pitiless grind, makes it a serious
question if vacations are really
worth while and if they ought not
to be abolished.
The most helpless and unhappy
wretch in the world is he who, hav-
ing enjoyed" one of these vacations,
has to get back on his job feeling no
fitness for his task and oppressed
by a sense of helplessness and in
adequacy that makes his once famil-
ial work very nightmare of horror
galloping through his shrinking con-
seriousness.
Vacations as at present practiced
by many American citizens are a
source of economic weakness to the
nation at large and of moral i'm
pairment to the individual unit-a
breeding ground for pessmism, de-
spair and suicide; and while the va
cation per Sc may be very good
thing, that which follows hard upon
it is so tragic in its collapse of hope
and its hideous sense of contrast
that we know of nothing toe ON
pare with it as a keen little, mean
little destroyer of human happiness
and provocative to solid human mis-
cry.
