SATURDAY, AFRIL is, lel4.
According to astrology this is an
uncertain day in which it will be well
to exercise caution. Although Saturn
Is in benefic aspect Venus and Uranus
are adverse
It is held as a most unlucky tins
for weddings. Persons married on
this day should guard against un~
happiness due to erratic moods and
ehangeable emotions.
The conditions are not favorable for
Journeys. Vehicles propelled by elec~
trlcity are especially to be avoided.
Judges, merchants, artists, music
clans and authors are subject to Inc
fuences that may hamper and ir-
ritate them. They should postpone
all matters of Importance.
There is a forbddng sign for hotel
keepers. managers of restaurants and
confectoners. The stars presage
heavy losses for many who have
protited from the stars which have
encouraged dancing and cabaret per
formances. This same sign is read
as indicating loss for moving picture
theatres.
This is day believed to be lucky

be susceptible to the rule of Saturn

gatherers.
There is a lucky omen for those
who dwell on the water. for builders

Under this government persons who
have praetised severe self-denial are
believed to enjoy benefit.
Persons whose birthdate it is should
not make any changes in business or
domestic environment In the coming
year They may have disappoint-
ments in their affections or illness
in their families.
Children born on this day may be
restless in nature, always DESTROYS

affairs. They may be trained to
careers of great usefulness, however.
for they should be alert in mind ana

Concerning Senator Reeds speech
at Mexico Tuesday, the Mexico In
telliGenCer says: Senator Reeds
explanation of the new currency
law was highly interesting He was
a member of the Senate committee
having the matter in charge. Nor
ris Arnold, of Seattle, who is one o.
the leading bankers of the Pacific
Coast, declared that Senator Reeds
exclamation of the currency meas
ure was the most lucid he had ever
heard. Mr.. Arnold accompanied the
Senator to St Louis to talk further
with him concerning the new cur
rency law. Many persons, who were
shouting with the st. Louis Repub-
lie for the immediate passage of the
currency measure, at the time Sen
ator Reed was holding back on it,
now agree with President Wilson,
who says in a communication ad-
dressed to Senator Reed, that the
Junior Senator has made it possible
to pass the kind of currency meas
ure that he, the President, wanted
to see enacted, Complete harmony
between Senators Reed and Stone
Speaker Clark and President Wilson
exists, notwithstanding the efforts
of political enemies of Reed to dis
credit him. The sentiment express
ed by delegations of democrats, rep
resenting every townshlpin Audrain
and many adjoining counties, was
unanimous in the approval of Sen
ator Reeds every official action

Deposits Increase.

The war in Europe is proving
big boon to postal savings in this
country. From the very day hos
tilities opened across the seas pos
tal-savings receipts began to in
crease by leaps and bounds and
Withdrawals fell off, a result quite
contrary to the predictions of many
well-informed persons who, in their
ina giDatiOn, saw lines of feverish
depositors at post.office pay win
dOws anxious to again return their
say ings to bootleg and body-belt
depo sitories whence they came be.
fore intrusted to Uncle Sam. But
the fOrecaSterS failed to reckon on
the absolute confidence of the
American citizen, regardless of the
flag that first met his eyes, in the
ability and purpose of the Govern
ment to carry out its obligations,
not only among the nations of the
earth, but with the humblest citizen
of our land.
Two important results have fol-
lowed; thousands of people, largely
of foreign birth, accustomed to send
their savings abroad, are now
patrons of postal-savines system;
and enormous sums of actual cash
have been released for commercial
uses among our own people at a
time when the need for every avail
able dollar is pressing.
The growth of postal savings in
the United States has been steady
and healthy and the system has
filled an important gap between the
tin'can depository and the factory
paymaster. On July 1, when af-
fairs were running smoothly here
and abroad and the transmission of
money across the Atlantic was safe
ano expeditions, there was approx
imately $43,00000O of postal saw
ines standing to the credit of about
$4,000 depositors Since then over
over 100000 of deposits have
been added and the number of de-
posltors has increased enormously
This unprecedented gain is the
more striking when it is considered
that the net gain in the last three
months is larger than the gain for
the entire fiscal year in 1914
Scores of offices have done more
postal-savings business since the
war has been going on than was
done by them during the previous
existence of the service The in
creases are confined to no special
localities, but have been felt in
every nook and corner of the coun-
try. New York City alone made a

Facts from War and Waste"

The United States is spending
100000 a day on her army and
navy. This is only one of the
startling facts in War and Waste"
by David Starr Jordan. educator
and peace advocate. Listen to a
more few more facts about war:
The purchasing power of a dollar
has declined one-third since 1897
this is largely due to the heavy tax
alton all over the world. And this
in turn is due to the waste and in
debtedness caused by the war.
The gains of war and war talk
90 to the war industries. The cost
falls on the common man. When
Montenegro declared war in 1912
the nominal value of stocks and
bonds in Europe fell seven million
dollars. At the same time the
house of Krupp reported a surplus
of $12.500.O00 and declared divi-
dend of IL per cent.
For the cost and upkeep of the
four super. dreadnaughts now asked
for, we could build at Washington
the one great national university of
the world.

Rev. C. O. Johnson gave a number
of delightful readings for the bene-
fit of the students this morning. The
first reading by "Cressing the Bar,
by Tennyson. Mr.. Johnson said 1t
was his favorite piece and he GER
tainly did justice to it when reading
it. The next, "What in the Spark
ing" he said was close to the teach
ers. After this he gave the expert
ence of his at the Worlds Fair at
Chicago. 1t was a new version OF
"How Columbus Discovered the
World" However, it seemed n
little too modern for 1892. Every.
one greatly enjoyed Mr.. oJhnston's
readings and hope that next time
he win not stop when the bell rings.

With two picketS on duty and the
guests of his hotel armed with rifles
and six-shooters, w. O. Aikens, pro-
pritor of the Campo hotel, watched
through the night hours Sunday for a
threatened attack from Outlaw Con-
zales and his band.
Shortly after the store was burned
at Tecate, Aikens received a letter
from Gonzales intimating that he
would seize the first opportunity to
murder him unless large sum of
money was deposited at a certain
spot Just over the Mexican border
where Gonzales had arranched a
cache. Although the Aikens ranch
extends to the boundary line, the ho-
tel lies a mile and a half north, and
up to the present time Mr.. Aikens
has felt no fear of the outlaw car
rying out his threat, believing that
Gonzales was afraid to cross the bor-
der.
When the news reached Campo at
1O:3O Sunday night that Huerta had
refused to salute the flag and that
soldiers were being rushed to Tecate
from Fort Rosecrans, speculations as
to what Gonzales would do ran high.
A number of representative men of
Ell Centre were guests at the hotel
and they were at first inclined to
doubt the possibility of an attack, but
the letter and the easy proximity of
the hotel to the haunts of the out
law resulted in the stationing of two
.sentinels and the arming of the
guests.
The seriousness of the situation
was kept from the women as mucn
as possible, but there was not much
Sleeping at the Campo hotel despite
the precaution of the men.
w. O. Aikens expected to arm the
men of the village and the employs
of his ranch Monday and keep at
least one picket on duty until the
war is either definitely settled or
Gonzales has been disposed Of.
"I do not fear the Mexican soldiers
and do not anticipate any border raids
by them," said Mr.. Aikens Sunday
night, "but / do fear the outlaw bands
which infest the hills just a few miles
away. In case war is declared, un-
less the border is patrolled by range
riders or soldiers, the ranches lying
close to the line will suffer from the
attacks of these bands. 1t appears
to be the fate of border ranches in
every war in history. You can cas-
ily see that it would not be difficult
to ride across the line, burn and looa
the homes of the ranchers, and ride
back into the mountains between the
hours of midnight and dawn. It has
happened before and it can happen
again.
