BOAT UNLIGHTED;
MAKES AN ARREST
Warrant Served on Albert Gel
ger by Revenue Officers for
Violation of Laws.

Because the launch which Albert
Geiger, prominent member Of the Is
land City Boating association and son
OF Joseph Geiger. cigar manufacturer,
was using was not lighted a revenue
inspector recently served a warrant on
Geiger. to show cause why a fine OF
500 should not be imposed on him.
Recently a revenue cutter made its
appearance in local waters Among
the craft inspected on the Mississippi
was the Geiger launch. The sun had
gone down but II was still light and
Geiger had neglected to turn on the
electric lights, with which his boat is
equipped. IL was also claimed that
the local man did not have the book of
rules required by law. The inspector
took Geiger.s name and referred the
matter to the Chicago office and this
morning a letter came instructing Gel
ger to appear at a hearing and show
cause why a heavy fine should not be
imposed.
A lengthy letter OF explanation is
being prepared by Geiger. He insists
that II was not dark at the time the
inspector visited his craft and there
was no necessity for lights and that
he owned a book of rules but had sim
ply neglected to put the same on the
boat. He is hoping the explanation
Will clear him OF the alleged offense.

HOMEMADE TROUSERS.
With a Word to the Woman Who
Makes Her Own Gowns.


Would men ever get anywhere, do
you think. IL they fused around with
as many disconnected things as most
women do? And the worst OF our
case is that we are rather inclined to
point with pride to what is really one
of the most vicious habits Of our sex.
We have all seen the swelling salts
faction with which the comely young
schoolma am, complimented upon a
pretty gown. announces, II made il
myself" And We have all heard the
chorus of admiring appreciation follow
Ing he announcement-joine in il,
perhaps. and asked TO borrow the pat
tern. But really, viewed in the light of
reason. what is there about the feat
upon which she should so plume her
self?
Suppose that a man should point
proudly To his neither garments and
say: "Loi / made these trousers"
have not a mental picture of even the
most economical OF his fellow clerks or
mail carriers, or clergymen. or school
teachers. crowding around to admire
and cry: 'Whct splendid way to
spend your time out of business hours,
And IL looks just like tailor made"
Which last is just as truly lie when
We tell IL TO our fellow women as it
would be II men told IL to men.-Mary |

tire roof over the kitchen Will have
to be reshingled.
The structure is owned by Henry c.

The loss is covered by insurance.

HOLES IN POTS AND PANS.
Quick and Easy Method of Repairing
Them at Home

Pots and pans, whether of iron or tin
(which is only iron timed over. get
holes in their bottoms all too soon to
please the economical housekeeper.
Then it becomes necessary TO call in
the tinsmith. who puts lump of solder
in the hole. This soon melts, and the
hole is there again.
But nothing is easier than to repair
such holes at home and without the
aid OF tinsmith. First of all make
the hole round by inserting the point
of a knife and twisting It back ana
forth. Place the pot or pan upon any
firm, Nat piece of metal. such as an
anvil. a bar of iron or an inverted fiat

She knows that the defeat Of Germany
would mean that Turkey would be-
come the helpless victim of Russian
covetousness. At any rate, our diplo-
macy, which since the beginning OF
the war has incurred unjustifiable
blame In Germany, at last accom-
plishes a distinct success, but not in
the sense that Turkey has become a
blind tool of our purposes. She acts
in accordance with her own highest
interests"
This view is supported by the Berlin
Tagelische Rundschau which is in
clined to think that France also had
finger in the pie, for it says:
Turkeys action had been expected
for a long time by the entire world
after the Anglo-French effronteries
against the Porte. Turkey is to be
congratulated on her honorable deci-
sion. We sought no allies, but We
welcome all the more heartily one who
| takes our side from the recognition OF
| the fact that it is advantageous to do
SO"
While the allies claim that Turkey
| started the war and then tried to ex-
plain away what they consider were
aggressive actions against Russia by
apologizing for them as temporary
mental alterations and while most
of the German papers blame England,
quite the contrary view is taken by
/ the well-informed and Influential Ber-
lin Lokal Anzeiger, which states:
1T must be emphasized that it was
not Turkey, but Russia, which started
the war. Turkeys action in the Black
Sea and the attack ON Theodosia were
natural sequels to the outrageous Rus
sian assault on Turkeys integrity The
breach of the peace was Russias
work"
In Italy, Germany is roundly ac-
cused of causing all the trouble, and
the special correspondent of the Milan
Secolo, writing from Constantinople
says that Turkey has to all intents
and purposes become a German col
ony, and adds
1.-THE Grand Vizier blindly follows
orders from Berlin and has not the
slightest notion what the morrow may
bring forth for Turkey. "-Transla'

Those in Asia will be used in invading

Weber Pasha, another German, COM

In Germany, naturally enough, the
press deny that Germany was in any
way responsible for Turkeys war few
err which was, 1t claims, instigated by
some other power. Thus the Frank
further Zeitung and the BerlineI
Tageblatt consider that England
forced Turkey into the war, and the
latter paper states that "if Turkey had
not acted when she did, England
long and carefully prepared plans
against the Porte would have miscar-
ried." The Frankfurter Zeitung says;
Turkey knows she fights for hel
existence when she fights on our side

TURKEYS FATE?

Aghast at what they term the "au-

predict swift retribution They fore
see the disappearance of the Turk
from Europe and his RELOCATION to the
role of 4 minor Asiatic power whose
dominions will be confined to Ana
tolia Like all the other organs OF
English opinion the London Times
sees the hand of the Kaiser in Tur-,
keys act, and says:
"By her foolish yielding to the in
stigations OF Germany, Turkey has
pronounced her own doom. The Otto
man empire in Europe soon will be

have resolved upon their own destruc-
ton, We do not regret their appear

and the Ottoman race will be rele-
