Washington that the loss of revenue
from customs. due to the falling off

money to met the threatened de-

Say Kaiser Wept When Signing The
War Paper.

That the Kaiser shed tears when
he signed the war declaration was
the assertion of passengers on the
Holland-American liner Potsdam,
which reached New York this week.
The New York Times says:
1.-The sentiment aboard was strong
ly pro-German, and group of cabin
passengers drew up statement de-
claring that they had been treated
with the greatest courtesy by the
German authorities, and deploring
the attitude of the American press.
On the voyage SIZE was collected for
the German Red Cross.
Passengers. who talked to re-
porters, told of the grief of Kaiser
William when he signed the war de-
claration and of the superior tactics
and Workmanship of the German SOL

SIDELIGHTS
ON The WAR
British Soldiers Tell of
Going Into Battle.
Passengers Returning From En-
rope Say the Kaiser Wept
When Declaring War.

A correspondent of the London
Standard sent his paper story
which gives a vivid idea Of soldiers
going into battle. He says:
Details given by British soldiers
enable me to give the following &C
count of the participation of the
British in the great Battle of the
Marine.
Dawn was Just breaking. The
men lay curled up in their blankets.
On all sides suddenly the blast Of
bugles sounded the "Reveille." After
a hasty meal of hot coffee and bis
cults the bugles sounded the order
to fall in, and long before the sun
rose over the treetops the men were
on the move.
Although they had gone through
a heavy march on the previous day,
no one showed any sign of weakness.
for the whisper had gone out among
the men that before night they would
be testing their skill against the Ger
mans and this worked up sufficient
excitement to make them cover, Tire

Searching For Giant in Germany.
The United States Diplomatic and
Consular Service now has added to
it's multifarious other duties that of
finding the British giant who is at
large somewhere in Germany. A Cir
Gus agency which booked the giant
for a German tour last spring in
formed Consul General Skinner it
should be easy. to locate Teddy Bobs,
as the giant is known professionally,
because che is rather conspicuous
figure, being eight feet tall and hav-
ing a lame left leg"
Teddy Bobs. whose real name is
Frederick Kempsted, was last heard
of in Essen. He has an enormous ap-
petite, and is expected to aid his
country by reducing Germany's food
supply.

see that the Germans had been driv-
en- back from the positions they had
held. On all sides were signs of great
stretches of charred waste, the re-
mains of what few days prior were
acres of ripened grain, ready for the
harvester. Broken, charred, gaunt
walls were relics of the happy homes
of Woodworking peasants.
During a halt at what had once
been a peaceful village the troops
saw fine, old building, evidently
the home of well-to-do family
stripped of everything of value be-
fore il had been Quilted by fire. Brok-
en- picture frames, only partially de-
stroyed by the flames showed the
edging of canvas where pictures had
been cut out Two fine marble stat
ues, too cumbersome to be removed,
had been smashed by the soldiers.
In more humble dwellings evil
dence of a siiailar nature met the
eye. Twisted bedsteads, smashed
pictures. broken toys, everything
that goes to make a home had been
destroyed.
As the march was resumed the
attitude of the men exhibited a dis
tinct change. There was no more
light banter. Each mans face was
set and determined individually and
collectively they seemed planning
what to do when they came to grips
with the foe.
AS night drew near the rumbling
of guns was audible in the distance.
Then came a galloper on a fOam-be-
spattered horse bearing dispatches
to the General informing him of the
position he was to take up. After de-
livering the dispatches and receiving
others he mounted fresh horse and
disappeared into the darkness.
Still the, khaki-clad wave marched
ON. every mile bringing the sound of
heavy firing nearer. Toward mid
night a squad Of caSsiry came into
touch on the right flank, and lit

POOR CONSUMER
GETS IT IN neck
War Prevents Importation Of
Hides Shoes Now Will
Cost More.

New York, Sept. 1.-THE cost of
shoes to the manufacturer, to whole
saler and to the retailer must be in
creased and the scarcity of the leath-
err will ultimately make itself felt
to the consumer" according to a
statement issued here last night by
committee representing the dele
gats to a conference of members of
the National Boot and Shoe Manu-
facturers' Association, the National
Shoe Wholesalers Association and
the National Shoe Retailers Asso-
citation. The conference was called
to order here by Congressman A. S.
Kreider, of Pennsylvania, president
of the National Boot and Shoe Man
ufacturers' Association, who said the
purpose of the meeting was to discuss
the effect of the European war on
the shoe and leather trade in the
United States.
In consequence of the conflict
abroad the normal importations of
hides and skins has been seriously
curtailed, according to the commit
tees statement, which continues:
This restricts the output of the
tanner and limits the supply of ma
terial available for the use of the
manufacturer. The embargo on the
expectation of chemicals, dyestuffs
and other necessary materials has
caused an increase in price which
must be considered. These conditions
in connection with the well known
and most serious depletion of the
herds of this country and Mexico
have caused such a short supply of
hides of all classes as to make I'M
avoidable a substantial increase in
the cost of leather of every, sort"
The committee which signed the
statement included John +. Wilder,
of Chicago; j. Frank McElwain and
Charles H. Jones, of Boston, John
A. Bush, of ST. Louis; John w. Grad
dock, of Lynchburg, Va; Andrew C.
McGowin and A. II. Geuting, of Phil

Hair Made Beautiful

Beautiful hair, thick, fluffy, lustrous and absolutely free from dandruff is not so much a gift of nature as a mat ter of care and proper nourishment. Hair is like plant-it will not grow healthy and beautiful unless it has att tention and proper nutriment.
 Parisian Sage, daintily perfumed and easily applied, tones up and invigor- ates the roots of the hair, and fur nishes the necessary nourishment to not only save and beautify the hair, but also stimulate it to grow long, heavy, soft fluffy and radiant with life.
 When used frequently and rubbed into the scalp, it will simply work wonders. Just one application stops itching head removes dandruff and cleanses the hail of all dust and ex- cessive oil.
 Since Partisan Sage, which can be obtained from The Lee & Osgood Co.,. or at any drug or toilet counter, never disappoints, it is no longer necessary for any woman to be humiliated be- cause of thin, streaky, faded, Efeless or unattractive hair-and as you know, pretty hair, more than anything else, helps you to retain a youthful appear ance.

DAVIS THEATRE.
Leah kiesehna, Four Part Feature, With cariotta NiIlson' Showing To- day.

One of the best of the many big fea- ture productions seen here this sum- , mer is Leah l<leschna, the four part feature that is heading the bill at this theatre today. Carlotta Nillson, who playe the leading part, is one of .he foremost American actresses of today, and her portrayal of Leah is one that appeals to everyone who sees the pie ture. There is a gripping plot to the story, and combined with the excel lent acting of the cast and the superb photography of the picture makes feature that will long be remembered by those who behold it. The Mutual Movies today include Cameo of Yel- lowstone, a powerful l western story, with plenty of action and daring horsemanship, produced by the Amer ican company in two reels. Our Mu- tual Girl still holds the interest, and in this release she takes her friends to many places of interest. Irwin 5. Cobb, the celebrated American short story writer, will write all the stories for Our Mutual Girl in the near fu- ture. Watch for his first picture. The Keystone comedy is Caught in Tights and is just o0e long continuous laugh with no chance to stop till the end of the picture. The concert programme by Messrs. Boyle and Craig is one of the best that these two talented sing CTS have put on this season. Both so- los and duet numbers are well select ed and come up to the high standard already set by them.A
 For the first half of next week an- other feature that will appeal to all lovers of the best in photoplays is In Mizzoura, the great play of rural life by Augustus Thomas. The star fea- tured in this production is Burr Mo- 1ntosh, one of the most distinguished of American actors.
