tribute to the fund for the establishing
and maintaining of local Y. M. C. A.
There were four committees in the
field; The first was headed by W. H.
Leach Sr. with whom were R. P.
Duckworth, j. M. Hull, w. T. Loggins,
W. M. Mayo, F. Goosmann, E. A.
Maddox, W. A. Rhea, C. W. Crawford,
G. W. Locke, A. L. Rhea; the second
was headed by H. M. Rhea, and the
other members were J.D. Foster. ]. P.
Moore, c. d. Hull. Joe Maxwell and
F. B. MOorman; the third committee
was led by Prof. L. H. Dooley
and with him were C. A. Harper,
Robert Day, E. H. Howell, G. w.
Bobbitt, S. A. Wetzler; and the fourth
was headed by Harry Bowers and was
composed of high school boys entirely,
as follows, Martin Farris, Glendon
Shaver, Ernest Ozier, James L. Day.
The citizenship of the city was divided
between the committees and each given
a list of men to be seen. When the
days work was over it was found that
splendid encouragement had been given
the movement and that $1035 was
actually subscribed or promised. The
committee started out with the purpose
of raising 1920, and it is now believed
by those having the matter in charge
that the remainder will be raised. So
confident of this fact is the state COM
mittee that before leaving here an
nouncement was made Ly them that
they will at once proceed to select
secretary and board of directors and
at an early date will start the organi-
zation out
One of the most pleasing features of
the whole campaign was the banquet
rendered the members of the several
committees Monday evening at the
high school. A splendid mehu was
prepared and number Of this city's
charming young ladies served the
guests. W. H. Leach Sr. acted as
spokesman and presided during num-
Der of after-dinner talks. No more
pleasant affair has been given to any
body of men in this city than was this
for the members of these committees.

KAISER ENTERS TOWN
 OF NOVOGEORGIEVSK
German Emperor and Brilliant Suite Visit Captured Russian Fortress
 Which is Still Burning

| Novogeorgievsk, Russian Poland 1 August 20, via Warsaw to London, August 23, 12:05 a. m.-The German emperor with Gen. Von Falkenhayen, chief of staff of the German army; Field Marshal Won Hindenburg, Gen. Won Beseler and a brilliant suite today entered the still burning town of Novogeorgievsk
 Emperor William. prior to his en- trance, reviewed in parade part of the troops which took the fortress in an eight-day siege.
 The emperor stood on the crest of the NovogeorgieVsk forts, amid can non and barbed wire entanglements He expressed gratitude to God, who. he said, had helped the troops and would further help them, and thanked the mon for their accom- plshments. The emperor, who stood near the Associated Press cOrre- spondent, appeared to be fresh and strong despite his arduous duties.
 After the parade the corresp ondent entered Novogeorgievsk where stores and supplies everywhe ere were burn ing. The Russians apparently in- tended to take everything away, but the railroad bridge broke down un- der the weight of the heavy mOrtars, thus cutting the connections and ne- cessitating a defense of the fortress.
 German officers stated that the vic- tory here was considered more not able because the besieging force was smaller than the garrison and con sisted in great part of reserves, not first line troops It was said that Gen. Won Beseler, as at Antwerp, had comparatively little infantry cover ing his heavy artillery.
 The reference in this despatch to Gen. Von Beseler as being the one I in command during the siege of Antwerp recalls a report published in a London newspaper last October, to the effect that the conqueror of ! Antwerp had shot and killed himself in his room at Bruges. There was no confirmation of this. However there had been no mention in news dispatches of the activities of Gen. Won, Beseler in any of the campaigns up to the time of the fall of Novo- georgievsk. The NovogeOrgievsk dis patch apparently clears up one of the smaller mysteries of the war.

Mrs. Bauman of source of perplex-
ing annoyance.
Seven years ago Mr.. and Mrs. Bau-
man Travelled in Egypt. Bauman,
with an exploring party, came upon
the royal tomb of Queen Hatasu, and
he brought the queens skull to his
home in New Castle. Some three
years later, ]. Howard Baumann died,
and on Oct. 81 of this year Mr.. Bau-
man died.
1t was after these bereavements
that Mrs. Bauman recalled that while
she was in Egypt, natives, with much
solemnity, aVowed it was i'll luck to
remove a royal body from it's resting
place, and strongly advised the Bau-
mans against taking the head of the
queen away. These warnings,
though emphasized, were dismissed
as idle, and the Baumans returned
home with the relic.
Now the head, which, with it's
wrappings, weighs about five pounds,
rests in a glass case at Carnegie In
stitute museum.

AMMONIA THE BEST CLEANSER
BY Caroline Coe

BY Caroline Coe
Ammonia cleans everything and it
behooves the housekeeper to keep
bottle of it close at hand. 1t is in
valuable in dish washing and it is
useful agent in cleaning clothes, hats,
silks. Even table linen that has had
a drop of jam spilled on it may be
brought out white and snowy by its
use.
Ammonia has something to recon-
mond it that very few cleansers have.
1t does not injure your hands.
If your bright colored stockings
are faded soak them in little water
with a few drops of ammonia. Wiring
out dry and hang in a dark closet.
Soak the towels your boys wash
their hands on in strong ammonia
water and watch the spots disappear.
Soak all bedding over night in
tepid ammonia water Zone cup of
ammonia) to each tub of clothes;
rinse out in the morning and wash
in the usual way. Their clear white
ness when dry will be most crafty
ing.
Remember ammonia is cheap in
price and harmless and most bleach
ing powders are expensive and often
harmful.
Wash the tea towels and dish
clothes in strong ammonia water,
rub in a little soap and allow to
stand for half an hour; wash out and
then rinse in boiling water, then in
cold water and dry in the open air.
Clean brooms and brushes, combs
and vases with ammonia water, and
if you have fern or plant use the
water as a fertilizer; it will nourish
them.
If the windows look dingy as the
sun shines on them wipe with ever
downward strokes with a cloth wet
with ammonia and dry and polish
with soft cloth.

Apple Waste is Shown.

Olympia, Wash.-Commercial apple
districts of Washington exported more
than 375,000,000 pounds of apples last
year. There was an estimated produc
ton of Gull and low-grade apples OF
considerably more than 10 per cent OF
this amount, and yet but 14,202,S0
pounds found its way to by-products
factories. according to the state de
partment OF agriculture, showing the
need for more means of dealing witt
low-grade fruits. A much larger ton
mage of apples was handled in by-pro

or vegetable.

doomed men strove desperately to
save themselves as their vessel sank
to the bottom Fifteen met death in
the engine room, where they sought
refuge at the last; six died at their
posts in the flooded forward compart-
ment All members of the ships com
pany are absolved from blame in this
tribute:
From the facts established we find
the accident resulting in disaster to
the U. S. s. submarine F4 on March
25, 1915, was not due to carelessness,
negligence, or inefficiency on the part
of the officers or men of the vessel,
and that furthermore the personnel re-
manned at their respective stations un-
til all effective means employed to
avert the disaster impending had fail
ed, and thereafter sought refuge"
After a review OF all the facts es-
tablished in the investigation the
board announces it's conception Of the
disaster as follows:
1.-The primary cause of the disaster
was the corroded condition of the lead
lining of the battery tank and in con
sequence of leakage of certain rivets
in the port wall of the forward battery
steel tank.
"The secondary causes were:
"(a). The poor diving qualities o.
the vessel; and (b) the consequent
failure of the vessel promptly to re
spond to measures taken to bring hel
to the surface"
