moved from that location to the
buildings formerly occupied by

The new location is a very good

Circuit Court, and four of the
others who appeared were re-

that they had been together
earlier in the evening.
John Poblltz was not present
for his hearing and it is report

impossible up to the time we go

possible that he will yet break

knows relative to the death of

are confident that he can shed
much light on the matter if he
will, and every one hopes that
he may be induced to do SO.

Former visitors to the South

alleys, and all streets, including
Midway and Machinery Row will
al be differently located and ar
ranged. The new plan will make
al parts of the grounds readily
accessible, while the artistic
eject will be strengthened.
One new feature which will be
appreciated, is the laying of the
walks from the main entrance on
lhlrd Street to Machinery Hail
AAd Dairy Building. Main En-
frances will now be located on
nlrd Street with up-to-date
|ufnsule systems for foot pass
Faeers and vehicles. Exits will
located on Second and Fourth

f4aee, and will be guarded by
elachments Of the State Militia.

Lennon Again
Temporarily Dry

Tuesday evening was the last
night for saloons to operate
under the licenses issued in 1913,
and when the doors of the Pal
ace Bar and Joe Casady's place
closed at 9 o'clock p. M, the
thirsty were turned out for the
last time.
The city commissioners are to
meet Thursday evening to con-
sider the applications of A. E.
Schaal, Joe Casady and H. 0.
Duncan, for new licenses and it
will be a matter of perhaps ten
davs before another bar is open
ed in Lennon.
Messrs. Schaal and Casady
are applicants for individual
licenses and offer the City of
Lennon an aggregate sum of
$4,000 for the privilege of con-
ducting their places the ensuing
year, the money being already
deposited with the city commits
sioners in the form of certified
checks which is to be applied by
the city commissioners to any
of the funds of the city and used
in any way by the commissioners
for the best interests of the
city.
H. O. Duncan is the applicant
for the corporation saloon license
the net proceeds of which a part
is to be applied to the good
roads fund and the remainder to
be used in retiring city warrants
in the inverse order of their
issue.
1t is altogether likely that the
voters will be called upon to ex-
| press a preference for one or the
other of these plans before a
new license is issued to any one.

HIS CENSORSHIP WAS STRICT
Duke Of welIlnston's Order Prevented
World Knowing About Result
Of Waterloo.

The absolute embargo which has
been decreed upon war news by near
ly every war department Of Europe
brings to attention again the old
question Of the rights Of the public
and the necessities OF the strategists
in a campaign to prevent their rove
ments becoming known to the enemy.
Even a century ago." says r..
Lauriston Billiard in his book on "Fa-
nous War Correspondents" the Duke
Of Wellington was registering pro-
tests against such a mild type Of war
reporting as that done by Crabbe
Robinson in the peninsula.
I'm 1909 the duke declared that In
some instances the English newspa-
pers have accurately stated not only
the regiments occupying a position.
but the number OF men At for duty
of which each regiment was com
posed, and this intelligence must have
reached the enemy at the same time
II did me, at a moment at which II
was most important that he should
not receive It."
This author is OF the opinion that
but for the protests Of the Iron Duke
the world would know far more about
the BATTLE Of Waterloo than was pos
sible in the absence of trained mar
rators.
The present degree Of secrecy is
so complete that the newspapers OF
London are all protesting privately to
the war Office and publicly in their
editorial columns. and there is likely
to be some relaxation Of the rule.
In his discussion of the whole ques-
ton of publicity OF war news and the
demands which patriotism at times
makes for the suppression Of intelli-
gence, Mr. Mullard cities the famous
war artist, Frederic villiers, Who long
ago declared that publicity. pub
licity. publicity is the greatest factor
and force in our public life."

Former Gov. VIM. A. Stone, one Of

ion holding Thaw responsible at law
and liable to extradition for con-
spiracy. means that he is sane. The
fight to resist return to the Mattea-
wan asylum will go on. Legal su-
thorities who have followed the case
predict that a wide field of con-
troversy will be opened up when the

this connection it was recalled that

Justice White intimated that imme-
