Eminent Scholar to Retire.

DR.. Basil Lanneau Gildersleeve, who
Is to retire from Johns Hopkins uni
versity at the end of the scholastic
year, is, with the exception of DR..
Ira Ramsen, the last man of the orig
inal university faculty. His reason
for retiring is his age, he having
passed the eighty-third milestone. Doc
tor Gildersleeve, native Of Charles
ton, S. c., is recognized as one OF two
greatest Greek scholars in the world,
and has been at work on Greek Syn
tax, said by Greek scholars tn be the
most wonderful work OF its kind ever
attempted, and which he has himself
said he never expects to live to COM
plete. His associates in the depart
ment of Greek of the university, DR..
C. w. E. Miller and Mr.. Edmund Speik-
er, will probably finish it. Honors con-
ferred on him by the scientific institu-
tons of the world are many, and his
treatises on classical languages are in
general use in educational circles.

DiriuibIe for the Navy.

It is announced that the navy de-

craft from a Connecticut company,
which is to be delivered within four
months and will cost $45,636. This
craft will be It's feet long, 55 feet in
height and will accommodate eight
men. The speed will be % miles an
hour. This craft cannot be seriously
regarded as fighting machine, but is
probably intended merely for practice
purposes and for training operators
for possible future craft. The battle
cruiser North Carolina, which has be-
come superannuated. is to be remod-
eled to serve as an aviation ship, and
will be sent to Pensacola, which is to
be made station and school for train

the new airship will be sent to the
same place and floating hangar is to

GOD BLESS OUR DAD

We happened into home the other
night, and over the parlor door saw
the legend worked In letters of red.
What liz Home Without Mother?"
Across the room was another brief.
God Bless Our Home"
Now what's the matter with God
Bless Our Dad!' He gets up early,
lights the fire, boils an egg, and
wipes the dew of the lawn with his
boots while many a mother Is sleep
ing. He makes the weekly hand out
to the butcher, the milkman and the
baker, and his little pile Is badly de-
molished before he has been home an
hour.
If there Is a noise in the night Dad
Is kicked in the back and made to go
downstairs and find the burglar and
kill him. Mother darns the socks but
Dad bought the socks in the first pace
and the needles and the yarn after
wards. Mother does up the fruit.
Dad bought it all and jars and sugar
cost like the mischief.
Dad buys the chicken for Sunday
dinners, serves them himself and
draws the neck from the ruins after
everybody else is served. What IL
Home Without a Mother?' Yes,
that is all right, but what is Home
Without a Father?" Ten chances to
one it is a boarding house; father
is under a slab and the landlady Is

bushels can be raised in this manner
during the summer Next winter,
when calls for help are received from
destitute families, the potatoes will be

donate the services of several teams

PRISONERS TO CUT WEEDS
VIII Be Used to Improve the High.
ways In Wayne County,
Indiana.

Richmond, Ind.-The elimination of
weeds along the public highways is a
part of the work of the road improve
ment," according to Superintendent
Jones Of the Wayne County Depart
ment of Highways, and accordingly
he will begin within the next few
weeks to cut weeds all over the
county.
Prisoners from the county Jail will
be used in this work, as they have
been during the spring In road Ee.
pair work. The county now has an
automobile truck used for the trans.
portation of prisoners to various parts
of the county.
The experiment of working prison
ers on the roads was undertaken with
some misgivings by citizens, but now,
according to county officers, the only
objection comes from the prisoners
themselves, who prefer, in most cases,
to be permitted to spend their time in
idleness at the Jail.

CHANGES In WARFARE
MODERN GENERALS ARE UNLIKE
THOSE OF NAPoLEoN'S TIME.
Now Do Their Work Out Of Sight OF
the Armies They Command, and
Move Men as Would
Chess Player.

Generalship today is about as much
like generalship of Napoleon's time
as two-old-cat is like a major league
game, writes Frederick Palmer In Col
lier's Weekly. The general who
watches the battle from hill will be
blown to bits by artillery fire. I've
never seen a general on horse In
this war. If he travels, it is in a mo-
tor car, and he travels very little.
He sits in front of map covered with
blue and red penciled lines of the
trenches and the enemies. A dozen
experts are around him-each a spe-
cialist. He is but the chairman Of
the council, the silent man who lis
tens. The others plan and organize;
he mods. Photographs from aero
planes tell him the change each day
in the trenches. He works with a
card-index system of lives and mate
rial. An expert In a brigade COM
mand decides whether it's practicable
to gain few trenches; the division
staff decides to let the brigade COM
mander try, or perhaps carries it up
to the corps staff, which may in turn
pass it on to the great staff. A Joffre
or Won Hindenburg sits on the lid
He must keep his mind on the great
main object; he must not bother with
details; and he must never, never
lose his head.
OF Joffre they say that when re-en-
forcements are demanded he is always
slow to respond. Yet they always ar
rive If they are needed. In one day l
have seen $4,000 French troops pass
over a single line of railway, for they
may be sent very rapidly when nee
essary.
Joffre is not caught mapping, though
he always sleeps his eight hours a
day. Won Hindenburg seems never
perplexed, never rushed, though he
has struck such telling and sudden
blows.
Where Napoleon threw in 10000 re-
serves and from his horse watched
them double past to change the tide
of battle, Won Hindenburg throws
100000 men on railroad trains in the
night into East Prussia, and everlast-
ingly surprises and overwhelms the
Russians. Meanwhile, in what seemed
a fierce and desperate attempt to
break through in front of Warsaw,
he was only feinting. But he did not
make half feint. 1t cost him TWEEN
ty or thirty thousand casualties. The
allied newspapers were rejoicing in
his repulse before Warsaw when he
was preparing his coup in East Prus-
STA. Some Germans who were taken
prisoners in front of Warsaw had on
their persons copies of orders indi-
eating that the frontal attack was to
be pressed. Perhaps those Germans
fell prisoners very easily.-Frederick
Palmer in Golfers Weekly.

WEEDS ON A DOG LICENSE
"Allbi Frank" Tells In Chicago Of

GOVERNMENT AT LAST PAYS
Settles Claim for Property Seized by
Federal Troops Fifty-one
Years Ago.

Boonville, Mo.-Fifty-one years ago
federal troops converted to their use
personal property belonging to a citi-
zen at Upton, Moniteau county, con-
Quoting livery stable. This property
consisted of mules, horses, etc. After
his death his daughter, Mrs. Mary
Christopher of this place, began the
prosecution of claim against the gov.
eminent Of the United States to re-
cover damage for confiscation of her
fathers property.
Twelve years ago Attorney c. w.
Journey took the matter in hand and
worked increasingly in behalf of the
complainant. A few days ago w. W.
Trigg, appointed administrator, re-
ceived government voucher for $10,.
600, what was left OF the claim OF
$12,500. The attorneys in the case
were allowed $4,000 by the govern
ment for their services.

RESINOL SURELY MAKES
ITCHING ECZEMA VANISH

There is immediate relief for skins
itching, burning and disfgured by
eczema, heat-rash or similar torment
ing skin trouble, in a warm bath with
resinol soap and a simple application
of resinol ointment. The soothing,
healing resinol medication sinks right
into the skin, stops itching instantly,
and soon clears away all trace OF
eruption, even in severe and stub
born cases where other treatments
have had no effect. After that, the
regular use of resinol soap Is usually
enough to keep the skin clear and
healthy. Every druggist sells resinol
ointment and resinol soap.-Adv.

Russian Newspaper In Stockholm.

Russian newspaper under the
name Of Skandinavskij Listok is now
being regularly published in Stock
holm. 1t is estimated that there are
$4,000 Russian subjects residing in
that city, and 1t Is the intention OF
this paper to meet the needs of these
people. One reason for establishing
the paper is the difficulty of receiv.
ing Russian papers regularly in Stock
holm. owing to the uncertainty OF
mail deliveries. 1t Is also the fnten-
ton Of this paper to devote large
part Of its space to commercial inter
ests and attempt to join Scandinavia
and Russia more closely In this re-
spect. It will be nonpolitieal as far
as possible.

The mysterious German word "Zu-

family residing in Coethen, says a
Hamburg dispatch. A son serving in
the German army wrote his parents
that he was returning home on leave
Of absence. He added that he would
stop over in Brussels and asked for
money to enable him to return to Ger
many. A few days later the family
received telegram: Send 100 marks
to Victoria hotel. Zugel" The par
ents hesitated to send the money, as
this was not their name. They made
inquiries at the office Of military Off

the money. Zugel is an abbreviation
added by the censor, meaning 'zuge-
