Night Phone Service
Uncommon in Europe


In Switzerland 1920 of the telephone ex-
changes give service only from m. to 9 p. m.
In Sweden only rs out of 1000 exchanges give
all night service, and these charge extra for
night calls.
In Austria less than 2q6 of the exchanges
give all night service In Germany all small
exchanges close during the night, and larger
exchanges charge extra for night calls
In England small exchanges are only open
during the day. In France small exchanges are
closed at p M, two hours at noon and after
10 a. on Sunday.
American telephone service is 24-hour serv-
ice, and the rates here are the lowest in the
world

Changed His Route

9TH return to the depot by an out
of-the-way route" says the archduke
smiling. He's accustomed to attempts
at assassination; members of his own
family have been killed in that way
and he thinks a change in his route
will out-trick any other attempt. go
down the Appel quay, along the wa
ter 'front.'" is the order given to the
chauffeur He's a good chauffeur;
only little while before he has help
ed save the archduke's life by speed
ing up at just the right one-millionth
of a second. eve want to go to the
hospital to see those who were in
jured in the bomb explosion" says the
duke suddenly. The chauffeur doesn't
know the town well. He should have
continued along the water front. But
he makes a mistake. One little turn
of his steering wheel and the car is in
a side street.

BULLET FROM HIGH
SCHOOL BOY CAUSE
OF PRESENT WAR

he lives, will some day be emperor OF
Austria and king of Hungary. He
won't live three hours longer, but the
crowds don't know that, neither dc
the kings and czars and emperors OF
the world. With the archduke is his
wife. They have left their four lit
tie children at home in Vienna and
have come to Serajove, little town
in Bosnia to pay a regal visit. Eur
ope and all humanity might well keep
their eyes glued to the automobile
which is to pass through the badly
paved streets of Serajevo at 10 O'Clock
in the morning. First there is bomb
explosion. A typographer has thrown
lit. 1t doesn't hit the automobile; in
stead it hits the elbow of the arch-
duke. Itgoes off a second later in
the street some yards behind the royal
car. The chauffeur, whose wrong twist
of the wrist half an hour later is go
ing to help plunge into the greatest
war mankind has ever known, has put
on speed and saved the royal pair.
Destiny has decided that it is not at
1910 in the morning that the arch.
duke shall die, but at 10:40 and that
not typographer's bomb but high
school boys hand shall cut the rope
from which hangs over the precipice of
war the worlds civilization and peace.
The car speeds on. The archduke is
annoyed. When he reaches the town
hall he says to the mayor, who has
made speech of welcome. "These
speeches are all right, but what about
bombs? You say I'm welcome in
Serajevo but they throw bombs at me
here" The mayor looks worried, but
job is too small for mayor. Even
kings, working all together and all the
statesmen of the earth, with the gold
of all the world behind them, won't
be able to handle the job that the lit
tie mayor of Serajevo is puckering his
brows about. He telephones to the
police to renew their vigilance. What
can the little police force of Sera
jevo do in this affair? It's matter for
the greatest armies the world has ev-
err seen to decide.

Gets the Target

Look, Europe! Look, all Humanity!
Turn your eyes from the affairs of the
churches where you are worshipping
this Sunday morning or stop your Sun
ay-holiday playing and watch and
listen" That's the way an orator or
historian might describe this moment
| a hundred years from now Just an
ordinary chauffeur has made an ordin-
airy mistake. The side street is roughly
paved. The car must go slowly. The
street is narrow. GABRIEL Prinzip
stands there. Just as if destiny itself
had it's hand on the wrist of the auto
driver, the car slows up as it nears
Prinzip. Here they are, few feet
apart, the revolver and the target. An
gether in this side street. The target
seems to be only a man, an archduke.
But it isn't The REAL target is that
slender thread from which hangs
over the precipice of war-all that civ
ilization has gained through centuries
of upward struggle. The finger of the
high school boy assassin moves less
than half an inch. The bullet flies. 1t
enters the archduke's head and kills
him. 1t also killed the peace of Eur
ope, but the kings and czars and EN-
perors of Europe don't know it-yet.
All of them feel sorry for the little
children who are left orphans in the
palace at Vienna. Emperor William of
Germany and his wife, telegraph to the
little children, eve can scarcely find
words to express to you children how
our hearts bleed. To have spent such
happy hours with you and your par
ents only two weeks ago and now to
think that you are plunged into this inn
sorrow"
The emperor didn't know then that a.
million times four children probably |
would be plunged into unreasonable
grief before the effect of the flight of
that one lead bullet had died away.

Brought Sorrow and Death

It's hard to find enough to say about
this one lead bullet. 1t went into the
head of an archduke las he rode in his
automobile 1t sped through the
chancellories of Europe. 1t circled
about thrones. 1t entered the bed
chambers of the worlds kings, en-
Iperors or czars and drove sleep from
the eyes of statesmen. 1t sped into
millions of homes and brought sor-
row and death. Oceans of tears of
women and little children it created.
1t flew into the bourses and money
markets of the world and cut their
nerves. To understand the situation in
Europe before this bullet was fired
imagine, if you can, that every item
of civilization-everyt that is
good-homes, science, art, music,
all been done up into one huge pack
age and hung, by slender thread
over a deep precipice. For years this
package has swung this way. The
winds of war have often threatened it,
but the statesmen of Europe have
steadied it and have strengthened the
hold and the storm has passed, time
after time. And then along speeds
this one lead bullet, fired by a high
school boy named Gabriel Prinzip. 1t
cuts the rope The crash will be
heard throughout centuries
Assassin Has Disappeared
Where Prinzip is now is a secret.
Most probably he is dead. From the
day he was seized by the crowds in the
streets of the little town of Serajevo
and dragged off to jail, he has been
out of sight. Austrian censorship
kept back the news; his punishment is
a mystery to the courts of Europe. 1t
all happened on Sunday morning, June
2S. King George of England, was liy-
ing in Buckingham Palace, in London, |
enjoying the social season. In far away |

many, was playing on his yacht at Kiel.
1t was playtime for the lords OF Europe
and they were making the most OF it.
But, lords as they were. of various
sections of mankind, their sight did
not reach to that little faraway town
in Bosnia. Chauffeurs and high school
boys don't often topple thrones ana
there are so many of them and they
are so common that they cannot all be
watched. But it would have well paid
hese lords of creation and it would
nave well, paid all humanity TINS

heir eyes on Serajevo.

One Little Bullet Caused War

The answer is: One little lead bull
| let from a revolver in the hands of a
Servian high school boy. And this bull
let probably would never have been
lost his way in a little town in Bosn-
ia. One little twist of a chauffer's
wrist, as he turned an automobile into
a side street, when he should have re-
manned on the main road; one little
twitch of the right index finger on the
trigger of revolver in the hands of a
high school boy-they started this war
in Europe

LONDON, Aug 24.-(By Mail to New
York What started this war in Eur
ope? Everybody knows that millions
of men are lined up to kill each other
that the civilization which Europe has
been slowly building up since the dark
ages has been thrown to the winds and
that the situation is too big to either
write or talk about, intelligently 1t
will take a hundred years for history
books to give the news. AS Gen. Fred
Funston told me, just as | was hurry
ing away from Vera Cruz, for London:
There's only one bigger newspaper
story that could happen on this earth
and that would be another planet ap-
preaching ours with an inevitable col
lision two weeks distant" What

Official Statement Held by Some to
Mean Neutrality-By Others
that She VIII Aid Allies.

I Rome, August 3.-The war situa-
ton, so far as Italy is concerned, was
considered more grave, yesterday
The censorship has succeeded in sup
pressing all news except a short,
.colorless official statements that
'Italy is calm and will not mobilize,
but will conform her conduct to
treaty obligations.' :. =.
This statement is interpreted diff
ferently here. According to the opin-
ion of some it means the neutrality
of Italy, while others believe that
Italy will participate in the conflict
only in case the central powers sus-
tain a reverse. =,
Meanwhile all projects in the
kingdom have warned the press not
to publish any military news |or
movements of troops.
The warships of the kingdom are
under the same penalty as in the
Italo- Turkish War. Apprehension is
felt at the lack Of coal, owing to
Italy's supply being entirely English.
Efforts are being made to secure
American coal. -,
