SCHOFIELD BARRACKS. Deem
Der Stalking the first place in inter
est and importance above other social
festivities Of the week, the country
dance given on Tuesday evening for
the benefit Of the Army Relief Asso-
citation fulfilled all expectations, and
the informal whole-souled enjoyment
Of those taking part in the dancing
was gratifying to those who for weeks
have planned for the success OF this
occasion. The large amusement hall
Of the 18th Infantry was decorated un-
der the tasteful direction Of Mrs.
Charles Rich. who In choosing the
sheafs of cane and the piled hay bales
in the corner of the room, showed a
pleasing sense Of the appropriateness
Of this harvest home effect, which
added to the amusing costumes OF the
guests made the affair seem a gen.
uine old-fashioned barn dance Al
most the entire garrison were pres
ent, and almost all in costumes which
varied from the proverbial 'shayseed"
and country horse trader to gorgeous
effects attained by colorful Sunday
bests' on the part Of their better
halves. Various booths about the big
room sold cakes, pies. cookies, dough
nuts, lemonade ice cream cones, sal.
ads and coffee, which at the supper
hour were consumed with hearty
country appetites. " Perhaps the most
popular booth was that presided over
By the LIST Infantry ladies, who, with
the able assistance Of Private Wool
Of the Home Guard" represented by
Captain Pelham Glassford, sold Ice
cream cones throughout the evening
The supper booth was in charge of
Mrs. L. w. v. Kennon and Mrs. VIII.
liam w. Forsyth, who realized a very
acceptable sum from the sale, and
who by their personal efforts contri-
buted much to the success Of the even.

Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines, May A.-Score another
for the Iowa railroad commission in a
decisive victory in freight rate case
before the interstate commerce COM
mission.
(: Last fall the railroads in Central
Freight Association territory gave no
tice of intent to raise the rates from
that territory to upper Mississippi
river points on all business coming
into Iowa, whether to the Iowa river
points or to the interior Iowa cities.
This was plain discrimination against
Iowa. There was no proposal to raise
the rates from the same territory to
ST. Louis, There vas intent, either, to
raise the rates to apper Mississippi
river points where the freight was des-
tined to points thru and beyond Iowa.
1t was merely that as for the freight
coming into Iowa the rate should be
raised.
A protest was male and hearing
was sent to commence in Chicago to-
day. Representatives of the rate de-
partment of the Iowa commission had
the case all prepared and were 10 have
gone into Chicago to defend, when
word was received the case was. put
off, and later the information came
that the hearing was Cancelled be-
cause the railroads have withdrawn
their notice of higher rates. This is
equivalent to admission that the pro-
posed raise was indefensible.
The raise was in some instance as
much-as so per cent and it would have
meant very large Increase in the cost
of some classes of material in the
cities of Iowa.

" Since Ban on Alcohol.
CCcrrespondence Of Associated PresS.)
Petrograd, April 26-A report on the
results OF compulsory temperance, vas
introduced into Russia since the be-
ginning Of the war. has been prepared
by Prof. A. L. Mendelson, Of the Rus
sian Society for the Preservation OF
National Health.
In the opinion OF Professor Mendelson
the beneficial results OF compulsory
temperance are not open to doubt. In
proof OF his contention he cites reduction
OF alcoholic sickness in Petrograd and
Of the attendance at anti-alcoholic
sanatOriums, the decline in the number
OF cases OF dipsomania and alcoholic
insanity, and also Of general mental af-
fections. He notes also a reduction, OF
indirect manifestations ,of alcoholic
sickness, Of traumatic injuries and sui
cides. For example, from July to De-
cen1ber there were in 1918 ninety seven
suicides, while in 1914 the total was re-,
duced to "A.
Other results Of temperance. says the
professor, were an increase in savings
banks deposits and a reduction in the
number Of small loans made by the
pawn shops For the first two months
OF 1915 the savings banks of Petro-
grad received deposits exceeding the
figures Of the corresponding months a
year ago by one and one-half million
roubles, while turnout Russia the de-
posts increased by a hundred million
rOubles.

Over 60 Per Cent Of Population Of the

Correspondence of Associated Press.)
Panama, May 1.-The cabled report
that go per cent of the population OF
the Republic of Panama had been
found affected with the hookworm dis
ease by DR.. L. w. Hackett, of the In
ternational health commission of the
Rockefeller Foundation is interesting
in other respects. The report indicates
that Of the adult population 81 per
cent are affected while of the children,
practically ~ per cent have the disease
in more or less pronounced degree.
The report of DR.. Hackett is the re-
suit of more than seven months inves-
tisation in all parts of the country. Ten
thousand adults came under direct ex-
animation.
Routine examination of the blood"
says the report, Showed that large
majority of persons Twink in the in
terror of the republic are directly en-
emic, the average blood being only 81
per cent of normal, indicating a dan
gerous degree of lowered resistance
Since the parasite affects the children
most heavily, stunning their bodies and
minds and causing them to fall an easy
prey to other diseases, the figures re-
reveal an alarming condition existing
among the rising generation. This state
of physical debility is due to the COM
plete absence Of all sanitary equip
ment and regulation in both school
houses and dwellings in the interior.
The report shows that more than b.
900 homes were visited and instructive
talks given to nearly 10000 persons.
Pictures were given in thirty three
schools. Three Laboratories are now

Sioux City, May 14.-Were the ex-
preston an apt one in his case, Charles
NJ. Dickson, owner of a barber supply
house at 419 Pearl street, is ready to
quit and be good" Dickson, in his few
years as resident Of Sioux City, has
been robbed nine times.
The very latest and ninth robbery
occurred at the Dickson home, 1920 Re-
timid about "rubbering," the thief
and his booty might have been cap
tured before an escape was made.
Not the least of the burglars haul
was diamond ring valued at 1886.
two scarf pins set with valuable stones,
some fine linen tablecloths, bracelets
a party gown, suit Of clothes hand
embroidered doilies and various and
sundry other pieces of valued house
furnishings.
Strange to say, the thief left I'M
touched a. drawer of heavy silver plate.
1T looks to me like some Of the gang
that has been operating in other
homes picking up linen and jewelry,
robbed my house also" said Mr.. Dick
son today in recounting his misad-
ventures with robbers. Thieves sure
ly have me spotted or I'm wrong"
said the west side citizen, ruefully.
The Rebecca street home has been
robbed three times In a year.
Entrance to the Dickson home was
gained thru side door and a skeleton
key used in opening it. A neighbor
saw some one walking about in the
house but supposed that one Of the
Dicksons was home, and did not pay
further attention to the thief in ac-
ton.
When Mrs. Dickson, accompanied by
a friend, walked into the house at sup
per time they were surprised to see
the furnishings in utmost confusion
and discover that many articles had
been taken away.
The Decisions declare the thief must
have used a wagon to carry away his
harvest" of linen and clothing or
else was ably assisted by a confed-
crate.
J. B. Richard, chief of detectives,
investigated the case short time after
the police were notified Of the robbery.

emeritus Of Harvard University, and a
number of other eminent educators, to
interest American school children in
some helpful angles of the war; and
which has been working under the title
of "the children of Americas fund"

ating classes Of 1915, and issued an
appeal to class presidents, which reads
as follows:
president Of 1915. Dear Sir: Over
six million little children are home-
less and starving in this country and
Europe.
Twenty million American boys and
girls in colleges and schools are form
ing into a great relief army under the
leadership of the Glasses of 1915 to
help them. They love to live just as
YOU do but unless America gives them
food they will die! Five cents worth
of food will give starving child one
days life. The cost Of your class
memorial, class banquet, or class dance
will keep many children alive. Will
your class join this nationwide move
ment and give at least part Of your
class fund this year to save their
lives?
your class is looked up to by all
lower grades, they will gladly follow
your lead and help you make the 1915
class fund the largest in the history
of your school. In this time of ter
rible need gift of this kind will be
a lasting memorial to the generosity
of your class and the finest tribute you
could pay to the influence of your
