Wrist Watching Waits and Wins.
New York Tribune.)


1t begins to look as if the long, up
hill fight of the wrist watch for SER
ious male recognition was almost
won. Uncle Sam has ordered 400 of
the species for his calvary officers.
Peeping from beneath the kahki sleeve
and spanning the tanned and corded
least appear safe from the jibes of
Chicago policeman who was rebuked
lately by his chief for wearing one
may now have his revenge
But as matter of fact wrist
watches have long been worn by army
officers in this country, and by the
rank and file, as we'll as the officers
abroad. Will Irwin found them COM
mon among the men in the trenches,
who, however, were later forbidden to
wear them because too many serious
wounds had resulted from having the
works driven into the froearm by the
enemy's bullets. This danger is prob
| ably not considered serious in the
case of calvary. And neither this
danger nor the more appalling one,
luckily now past, of being dubbed a
sissy a mollycoddle, highbrow or a
paciGst, has deferred such males as
Police Commissioner Woods, Mayor
Mitchell, Christy Mathewson or Louis
Disbrow from forming the habit, a
habit which is spreading like wildhre
at Plattsburg, introduced there pos,
sibly by our martial police commits
sioner and mayor.
1t is only in this country that ridi'
Guile has been the portion of this labor
saving device, probably because it wa:
viewed as a protection against the
peculiar mode of chastisement reserv
ed for the effeminate. But the frs
thing they know those who now raj
! at it will be in a fair way of being
slapped on the wrist by those who
affect it. 1t may be necessary soor
to wear wrist watch to prove one
martial intentions.

MESSENGER SERVICE
A "CRIME FACTORY"

"Crime factory is the term which
an investigator for the National Child

Lewis w. Hine, believes that there Is
not a messenger boy of any experience
who does not know more about the
underworld than the average citizen,

messenger work is the serving of pros

desperate resistance to both the land
ing and occupation, although they
were under the guns Of the French
warships, Is indicated by the fact that
they delivered seven counter-attacks
and employed heavy guns.
The number Of troops on this eXpe-
ditiOn which Is in command of Gen
eral Sir Ian Hamilton, is not known
but those already ashore are moving
forward and strengthening their posi-
tiOns, the Decentralization from the
transports still goes on.
The Turkish official statement, re-
specting the operations, declares that
although hostile forces were landed at
Eum Kaleh and advanced under the
protection of the warships they were
driven back to the coast, several hun
dred men being killed.
The Turkish war office also asserts
that the allies attempted to land
troops Sunday at four points on the
west coast of Gallipolr' and that one
of the landing parties was finally
forced to retreat to the ships.
Germans Forced Back.
The battle around Ypres in Flan-
ders continues, but apparently the
combat has reached the end Of the
checked in their onward rush and the
British and French and Bclgians are
pushing hard in an effort to regain
the lost ground. Not much infogma-
tion is vouChsafed in the official
statement from the various war Of
fiCes beyond thnt contained in the
French statement that both British
and French are maNing progress to

ical evidence shows that Canadian
soldiers died mot from wounds but
from poisoning by gases employed by
the enemy"
In the eastern war zone the cam
paign at present occupies a secondary
position to the operation in Flanders
and against the Dardanelles. The
Austrian war office says othat in the
Carpathians the Russians have sus-
pened their attacks after having suf-
fered severe losses.

repulse in the Carpathians on April

The national joy smoke

from China 1t is further declared
that the Chinese foreign minister per.
mitted himself to be- drawn into
discussion of these demands, whicn
Yuan Shi Kai had instructed him to
refuse TO discuss
Group five comprises seven articles
relating to the employment by the
Chinese government Of japanese as
advisers in political, financial and mill
ltary affairs; supervision OF the
chinese police, the right of Japanese
ownership Of land for the building OF
hospitals, churches and schools; the
purchase Of munitions of war from
Japan; various railway and mining
rights as well as the right by the
Japanese to propagate Buddhism in
China.
Consult Japanese Advisers.
At the beginning Of the conference
the Chinese proposed the taking Of
joint minutes? but to this the japanese
representatives declined to accede. As
result both Japanese and Chinese
kept records OF the sttings. Never
theless, from time to time the Jap
ancse plenipotentiarles, It is asserted,
insisted that the Chinese initial GER
tain statements which was done.
With reference to article l Of group
FIVE, Japan requires note from
China declaring that when any I'M
pOrtant crisis arises China shall ask
Japan to appoint many Japanese ad-
Vsers" This peculiar wording is the
undertaking to which the japanese
state Lu Cheng IIsiang committed
himself. In article two Of group five
Japan now requires tho right either
to rent or lease lands The Chinese
express themselves as being far from
satisfied with this because this article,
which IS 4 separate clause from that
relating to Buddhism. would have the
effect of opening the entire country to
the japanese individually, as well as
under religious societies.
Article of group five, relating to
the police administration. has been
withdrawn, but Japan now requires
the appointment Of police advisers
aud also Joint China-Japanese trib-
Lnals for land disputes in Manchurla
besides extra territoriality, TO which
the japanese, like other foreigners,
are everywhere privileged.o
Adopt Jap's Plans.
The requirement OF article of this
group is also based on commitment
into which I.u Cheng Hsiang is said
to have allowed himself to be drawn,
namely, that China shall send a dele
cation Of military men to Japan to
adopt a procedure for the purchase OF
arms and the conduct OF Chinas
arsenals.
