EUROPEAN NEWS ITEMS
FURNISHED BY UNITED PRESS

London, Sept. 16-An impressive word picture of the manner in whicl all Paris heroically, and with almost spartan stoicism took the first re- ports that seige of the capital by Germans was a possibility is con- tained in the following dispatch which was sent from Paris to e loca newspaper:
 On the boulevards each night the change in the Paris populace is re- markable. There is enthusiasm, but quiet kind of enthusiasm. There is a singular absence of rowdyism and hOrseplay. The apache seems to have suddenly become a respect able citizen. People are more sin cerely polite to each other. On their faces I have noted a blend of gravity and gaiety; gravity full con scious of what the hour means; ga iety because they are fighting for France, they are fighting the detest- ed German who was so cruelty re leutless after his former victory and because they are not fighting alone, as in 1870.
 One does not hear the "IRterna- tionol" now. There is no longer the verse dinning in our ears bid ding the soldiers turn their guns on their officers. Now it is the "Marseillaise," or nothing; and I wish you could hear the "Marseil- laise" sung by 5000 Frenchmen on the boulevards of Paris.
 At the cafes the musical pro- gram is practically reduced to "GOd Save The King" the "Marseillaise." and the Russian National Hymn. That is an evening attraction now. The theatres are empty.
 Paris, Sept. 16-A brassarie kept by a certain M. Muller aroused the suspicious of a number of hooligans, who led by a savage woman of the petroleuse type, had wrecked num- erous German owned shops.
 The woman led her hooligan band to Muller's shop, and scream ed that he was a German. She said the mans wife and two daughters sitting at a table near window al- so were Germans. Immediately the crowd advanced to attack the family and wreck and loot the shop. M. Muller jumped to table, and har- ranguing the crowd, produced his mobilization papers ordering him to join his colors the next day.
 Have any of my would be as- sailants their mobilization papers?" he asked. "If not, they would do well to save that energy they are wasting attacking innocent people. They should carry that energy to the front and use it against the German army" The mob dispersed after cheering Muller.

New Jackknife
The Boy ss& Up q
Carpentry shop.

YAoK had had great trouble that day with a splinter which had some
how found it's way into his hand. It vas such a big. deep one that he
had had TO 60 to the doctors to have it taken out
60 "Wel, how does the hand feel this eveningT asked daddy.
Much better, thank you, daddy" answered Jack. -
lyon know, I think you need a jackknHe" said daddy Then you could
just cut out any splinter yourself"
"Tow dreadful, daddy said Evelyn. why, he might hrt himSGTe'
sam I really Il have d iackknfe, thought" asked Jack.
"Yes," said daddy; II have been thinking or some time that you needed
ens-one with plenty Of blades in it. / will bring 1t back with me tomorrow
evening"
"Oh, that's splendid said Jack. "Et is just like you, daddy, TO think Of
the very thing I would want most and to give it to me"
"This evening" said daddy, 81 Al going to tell you about the little boy
who was given a jackknife s a birthday present He did 10 many things
with his knife that 1 think it might give you some ideas and suggestions Of
things you might make with the help of the knife, although I don't really
suppose any boy needs to be told much about q jackknne, for, 7 fancy, as
soon as you have It you'll be able to use It,"
Jack smiled and said:
Eyes: I will be able to use it I think. But do tell us the story just the
same, for I would love to hear OF the things the other little boy made with
his knife"
This little boy" continued daddy, "Has very fond Of making all kinds Of
things. He set up a little carpentry shop in his room with a workstand.
HE would make little bird houses. little squirrel houses, hairs, stands,
boats, an express cart and, OF, countless other things! In fact he Just made
all the things that boys like
Before he had his jackknife he vas not al all interested In carpentry.
But his knife helped 81 much. It vas far more useful to him than his other
tools"
II can hardly wait nw for my knife" said Jak. "Tering MI about all
those things the other little boy made has made m want to get right to work.
But I will get my room all ready tomorrow for the shop"
"And I have a little chair which will just be the right size for you to use
working" said Evelyn.
Yes" said Jack, land I can make lots Of nice things for Evelyns dolls"
Evelyn looked happy at that speech for she was pleased that Jack always
wanted to share everything in some way Or other with her.

claimed to be at issue with the eXcep-
ton of u%nionizing the camps, III"
Colorado Fuel & Iron Co. had volun-
tarily granted to it's employers long
before the strike was called or talked
of. These points are:
"First-The eight hour day. This
was established by the fuel company
for all Of it's coal miners some time
ago.
Notwithstanding pay. When
this question was raised by one or tive
miners in one Of the camps OF the
company, the officers at once studied
the question and without delay decid-
ed to pay not only the miners in that
particular camp twice a month, but
all Of the miners employed by tho
company.
"Third-Check weighmen. For sew
eral years the fuel company has rails
ed no objection to the employment by
the miners OF their own check weigh
men aS is done In eastern mines where
union labor is employed. In order that
new men might understand their right
in this matter, some time since the Of
ficers of the company gave instruc-
Wis NhNN vi lo SiISdlu oS pSSlGo
in all the mines, stating that the com!
pany had always encouraged it's min
ers to employ their own check weigh
men.
"Fourth-Company stores. It has
been charged that the employees of the
fuel company are obliged to buy at the
company's stores. The storekeepers
are under strict instructions to say to
all that they are at liberty to trade
where they please; that the company
is glad of their patronage. but that
their standing will not be affected n
way or the other by their action in the
matter. AS a result of a study made
in one Of the mining camps of the
company, 1t was found that only %
per cen of the wages of the men was
spent in the coml,any's stores.
"Fffth-Wages. In spite of the fact
that no dividends have been paid on
the common stock Of the company since
our connection with it-a matter Of at
least ten or twelve years-and only
$3.50, 600 has been paid on the prefer
red stock, Of which the greater portion
represented payment on account Of an
accrued dividend which had accumu-
lated during many years, the company

to $500, 900 a year and of its steel en-
rloyes by a total of $250,000 a year.

matter which has been raised by the

American citizen to work on terms

ing the consent of the union, I ~reiter-
ated to DR.. Foster what I said in my
examination before the committee On
mines and mining in Washington a

as a matter of principle which could

EDITORIAL COMMENT
Soft Talk VS., Hard Fact.

Milwaukee Sentinel: Our feeling
for the people of Mexico is one of
deep and genuine respect" says Presi-
dent Wilson.
Is it, indeed? Let us clear our
minds Of can't.
There are some Mexican people for
whom we have deep and genuine re-
spect." But to say that we entertain
any such sentiment for the bulk Of the
population is preposterous.
There are about 13, 900, 900 MeXicans
whom we would not include in our
boundaries at any price or in any
status.
Annexation is about the last thing
the Mexicans have to dread. We don't
want them. We have chronic wastrels
and practical anarchists enough Of our
own, native and imported.
1t is to be hoped that our amiable
and scholastic presidents tender and
admiring words for the "greasers" will
not inspire them with the fear that we
love and value them so much that we
want to kidnap them. Nothing of the
sort!

greater danger than that of the enc

On the other hand, 1t is a cause for
congratulatiori that the science Of san

serving health in the tropics simpler
than it was in any former time. Mai.
Buell. IS. Rogers, surgeon Of the Sec
ond infantry. illinois National guard,
say on this subject:
The great problem for the army in
Mexico will not be to fight the Mexi-
cans. but to fight the mosquitoes, the
bedbugs, the f1eas and the flies. Be-
fore the medical department had
reached it's present efficiency these
enrnies would have been deadly, but In
the present campaign I do not look for
them to be so. Our campaigns in the
Philippines, / think, establish the con-
quest that we have made over infec-
tious diseases.
Vera Cruz probably will offer us
the greatest mosquito problem. Before

quito in yellow fever and malaria, it
was impossible to prevent outbreaks.
Now. however, the army equipment
provides nets which will protect the
men, at least, at night, when the pests
are at their worst.
The army will have an advantage
by its head, General Wood, having
been a surgeon. He will realize the
primary Importance of sanitation
more. probably than another ON
nlander who had not had medical
training. Men enlisting will be vacci-
mated against both typhoid and small

Mexico City itself and the noun

lions wholesome"
OF course there is a vast difference
between theory and practice. Duringt
the prepa rations for the Spanish war
there were frightful conditions in
many splendid young fellows who new
eT had a chance to &c out Of the coun-
try lost their lives. But there Is q far
better understanding of camp SANTA

and the American army will have a.
valuable asset in the medical reserve

WANTED. A FOREIGN Policy.

Minneapolis Journal: American dips
lofnacy is not greatly respected in Eu-
rope and the German press ridicu1es L..
The Lokal Anzeiger gave us good adj
vice when It says: THE American
government should really try to brace
itself up to a logical foreign policy" @
A logical foreign policy we lack.
True, we steer vaguely by the Monroe
doctrine, as ancient mariners steered
by the North Star. And that is about
all the foreign policy We have.
Time was when a foreign policy was
not needed by this nation. That time
hassgone. Foreign affairs thrust them
selves upon us nowadays crowdingly,
and in their insistency cannot be evad-
ed some consistent scheme must be
invented In order that foreign affairs
may be dealt with in accordance with
our interests and dignity. And when
the sgherae has been formulated. It
must be continuously and aofisistently
pursued, n not exaggerated BY one
administration and rullifiedl BY smother.
Every Buropeat1 power kruws what
1t wants IN foreign affairs. Great lines
of policy have been laid down and ,pur-
sued through the Years. The secret
will OF Peter the great Is the basis of
Russian foreign pelicy, which has been
