IRELAND MAY HAVE GERMAN
INDUSTRIES RUINED BY WAR
Growth of Willows and Manufacture
of Toys Are Suggested.

DUBLIN, Sept. 22.-The Irish Industrial
Journal points to some industries which,
in view of the war, might be proftably
started i'm Ireland. One of these Is the
growth of willows for basket making,
and another the manufacture of toys. At
present there is only one spot in Ireland
where willows are grown regularly, and
that Is in Adare. on the property of Lord
Dunraven, where a German expert was
installed some years ago. The pIin-
cipal centre of the coarser kind of will
lows is Silesia, in Austria. Now that the
supply has been stopped by the war, it is
time that attention should be given in
Ireland to the growth of suitable osieTs,
The Ardennes. between Belgium and
France are now the theatre of the war.
1t Is from the Ardennes that osier rods
for highclass basket making and finer
wicker work come, The war, of course,
has suspended the supply from this dis
trict, with the result that the price of
osiers has risen recently. There are
many parts OF Ireland where these will
lows can be grown, and II is sincerely to
he hoped that the suggestion of the Jour-
nal will be promptly and whole heartedly
acted on.
AS to the manufacture OF toys, there is
a big field and ii needs only capital and
enterprise TO start such an industry. But
where is the capital and where the en-
terprise? Both are sadly lacking In Ire
land

LAKE HoPATCoNG, N. j., Sept. r.
That Hudson Maxim, inventor Of max
Unite. who has passed safely through
MANY crises. bears charmed life was
never more apparent than yesterday,
when he emerged unscathed from ter
rife explosion that destroyed the labo-
ratory in the rear OF his handsome home
on Elva Point.
The explosion could be heard for
miles. Bits Of steel and iron were
later found embedded in houses 500
yards away A group of summer girls
in the Durham Hotel. a couple of hum
dred yards away, were so frightened
that several had to be treated by
physician.
The veteran inventor minimized his
own danger. He said the explosion
was caused by spontaneous combus-
ton He would not say whether he
was experimenting upon new high
explosive.
When Mrs Maxim. however. ap-
preached burning shed next to the
laboratory, Mr.. Maxim excitedly called
out to her to keep away. moment
later Robert Dodge. Of Westwood, went
into the shed and carried out a small
box Of dynamite.
A thousand summer visitors and resi-
dents came in motor cars, in boats and
afoot to view the wreckage. The labcS
ratory building was worth $500 ~
5000. In addition a great deal of costly
machinery was totally destroyed.

BARBARITY OF WAR
Sengalese and Turcos Have
No Mercy, Says London
Writer, Who Also Ac-
cuses Germans of Atroci-
ties.
LONDON. Sept. %.

LONDON, Sept %.
The London Globe prints a gruesome
story of the manner in which the French
scngalese soldiers have followed up vic
tories over German troops. The ac-
count is contained in a letter from a
reader of the Globe, who says he wit
nesses the incidents.
1T is wonder" reads the letter TO
the Globe that the French and British
troops have not retaliated on the Ger
mans for the terrible atrocities commit
ted by the latter. The Turcos and Sem
galese however, are not scrupulous
"One Sengalese warrior is walking
about Havre with necklace of German
ears strung across his shoulders. An
other carries AT his waist the CORY head
of Uhan with a dented picket-haube
set with a Takish tilt over one eye.
"A wounded Turco was put into a car
riage of a Red Cross train with four
wounded Germans. At the first stop a
doctor came to the window and asked IL
they were all right. The Turco replied
that the Germans were resting peace
fully
1T was not until the train reached its
destination that IT was discovered quite
how peaceful their rest was. The Turco
had strangled all four"
In the same letter to the Globe the
writer made charges of atrocities against
the German soldiers.

sire to get at the Germans" the letter
stated. II hear first hand stories, not

RICHMOND, Va, Sept pa queer
assortment of articles have passed
through the Richmond postofice by way
of the parcel post, but the most curious
shipment yet received arrived a few
days ago in the shape of a peculiarly
constructed paper-mache coop contain
ing so newly Matched chickens.
This unusual consignment through
Uncle Sam attracted much attention, and
n few favored visitors at the Federal
building were allowed the privilege of
seeing the "biddies."
While it Is strictly against the parcel
post rules to accept live fowls for ship
ment, this coop, about is inches square
and divided into two compartments, with
sufficient openings to allow light and
air, was allowed admittance to the mails
at a postotiice in Russell County. Its
destination was a point in Lancaster
County, a journey from the extreme
Southwestern portion of the State to the
extreme Eastern.

mond office while being transferred from
one train to another Despite their long
trip the half hundred chirping, fuzzy
creatures were in good condition. and,
barring any mishap, should reach their
destination in as good Snaps as when they

Being a violation OF the postal laws,
the shipment would ordinarily have been
returned to the sender. but when 1t

cepting it discovered, 1t was decided to
allow it to continue to the end of its
journey, for fear the chickens would die

However, Assistant Postmaster W.
Ross Southwark said the department at
Washington will be notified. and. no
doubt, the action of the postmaster in
Russell in accepting the coop as mail
matter will be the subject OF inquiry.

young Englshman who has just ar
rived here from East Prussia. tells of the
terrible scenes that followed the Russian
avalanche" that was so vigorously precipi-
tated on the part of the German Empire.
He was the last Englishman to pass
through Kongsberg before its Investment
by the Cars troops, and he and some
rich Russian refugees who have also
reached Copenhagen speak of the dreadful
scenes on the German side of the frontier
of every town they passed being choked
with wounded brought in from the battle
field, Of fearful suffering among the Rus
sian peasantry, and of the harsh treat
ment shown to foreigners by German viii
layers who spat upon and stoned their
enemies in the streets

with transport trains filled with wounded
They were huddled together, and some IT
them were hanging out of the windows

stations in East Prussia nurses and doc

range the bandages of the wounded Ger

flned lnhaDltantS, ana the wounded were
everywhere The less severely hurt were
conveyed back as near as possible to the
central part of the cu1ntry, so as to make
room for the urgent cases that could not
be removed.
I'm some towns Englishmen, French
men and Russians were very harshly
treated, especially by subordinate off,
cals. Disgusting remarks were hurled
at them by the Germans. Sometimes
they were openly assaulted. and this ILL
feeling became intensified as the Russian
army advanced. AS a result the Rus
sian refugees fed in terror and the Eng
lish there were also treated with con-
tinual ignominy and insult
"At Stettin, however, the feeling
toward foreigners was exceedingly good.
There are. it is said. about 5000 Russian
refugees there and these are without any
means whatever.

Something radically wrong with

Jump to the conclusion that be-
cause some of us Democrats got
it in the neck we are going to
blame it on the election system,
for we're not. Let the blame rest
where it belongs-with the Demo-
cratic voters who preferred Re-
publican officers. What this par
ticular kick is about is the cum
.berSome, nerve-trying, and wholly
inefficient provisions in this city
and in many townships, for reciv-
ing and counting the ballots at an
election like the one we have just
passed through.
There should be provision for
a count of the ballots to begin as
soon as 25 or 30 ballots we're voted
and the count kept up right on
through the day. This is done in
many states, we understand. A
second election board could be
provided, and the two board could
alternate in receiving and count
ing the ballots. Then from one
to two hours from the time of
closing the polls the whole bust
ness could be completed, the re-
suit made known and the nerve
Straining business stopped. If an
attempt be made again to hold an
election under the present pro-
visions we doubt if any persons
could be found to act on the
boards. While the money conSid-

A. D. FAIR.

Austin Daniel Fair, one of the
early day business men of this
city, died at the home of his bro
ther, T. P. Fair, here, Monday
evening of this week, after an ILL
ness of several years, during the
last three months of which time
he was confined to his bed.
Mr.. Fair was born in Indiana
county, Pennsylvania, November
8, 1S41, and was almost 70 years
of age at the time of his death.
When he was twenty years of age
he left his native home and in
company with his brother, T. p,
went to California where they re-
sided a number of years, and
where he helped to build the first
railroad across the Sierra Nevada
mountains. Later he went to Tex
as and afterwards to Missouri,
where he was united in marriage
to Miss Ida Price. Shortly after
their return to Missouri after
their wedding trip, Mrs. Fair was
taken ill with typhoid fever and
died, her remains being brought
to misplace and inferred in the
family burial ground several
years ago.
Shortly after the death of his
wife, Mr.. Fair came to this city
and engaged in the lumber busi-
nece with his hroIher A r. whnea

death occurred a few years ago.
and after which time Mr.. Fair re-
tired from active business, prin-
cipally on account of failing
health. He was a man of a quiet
and retiring disposition, but was
most highly regarded by all who
knew him and his many friends
will sincerely regret to hear of his
death and will join in extending
sympathy to the bereaved rela-
tiveS.
The funeral services were held
from the T. P. Fair home Thurs
day afternoon at 2 o'clock and in
terment made in the cemetery at
his place.

sitting at work that few people are

sitting at work that few people are
accustomed to.
The coming legislature should
certainly make provisions for an
amendment to the election laws,
both governing the primary and
general election.
Another thing should be done
in Great Bend, whether the law is
to be changed or not. The second,
third and fourth wards of this city
should each be divided into two
precincts, making a First and
Second Precinct in each, thus add
ing three more voting places in the
city. That would mean three
more election boards, it is true;
but the cost would be but little
more to the county, as the extra
pay that is given the judges and
clerks now-when over 200 votes
are cast-would almost pay for
the extra boards. Also in Home
stead, Cheyenne, Lakin and IndP-
pendent and possibly COmanche
townships there should be two
precincts, as there now are in Ii
berty and Walnut townships.
Don't let US talk about this now
and then forget for the next TIVE
years. Let the people get busy
and demand that their comfort
and voting rights be considered,
and these extra voting places be
provided for. If 40 per cent oil
the women voted this year, so per
cent of them will be ready to vote
next year. And we all want to
accommodate the ladies.
