BRITISH ARMY ADOPTS
 RUSSIAN ARMY BOOT

LONDON, Aug. 1.-The British army has decided to discontinue the use of the puttee, which has been the distinguishing leg wear of the British soldier for many years, and to substi- tute the Russian army boot. This. de- cision was arrived at as a result of last winters campaign in Flanders, when it was found that the cloth putee was little or no protection against the mud and water and led to the men suffering, not from frost bitten, but
 from benumbed feet and legs. Large orders have already been given for boots, which will be supplied to the troops before winter sets in, as the War Office anticipated another win ter in mud and -water-soaked trenches.

ENGLISH SHELL FUSE g,
 PROVES FATAL SOUVENIR

MUNICH, Aug. 1.-Two school boys were killed and nine others seriously inured at Gunzenhausen recently by the explosion of an English shell sent from the front as souvenir.
 The shell fuse was one of a dozen, which had been sent by a former student, and which were being dis tributed to certain pupils as prizes for excellence in gymnastics. The sender and the teachers apparently regarded the fuse as harmless.

PULLMAN WANTS SEE ALASKA
 COAL USED

q voted for the Alaska railroad bill so that the navy will be able to use the coal from the Matanuska field, and I want the commission to hurry up and get the road built, The opening of this coal field will put stop to the depredations that have been made on the public treasury by these people on the Atlantic coast who make coal con tracts with the government. had this coal contract business investigat- ed last year. have been keeping my noe eye on naval contracts for the past twenty years, and I want to tell you that some of those contractors are the subtlest, cunningest scoundrels on earth. They are absolutely remorse- less in their greed. They have made millions out of the government and they want to make more millions. have no doubt they were largely re- sponsible for keeping the Alaskan coal out of the market"
 The foregoing positive declaration was made by United States Senator Ben Tillman. of South Carolina, who Is chairman of the committe on naval affairs, and who has just returned from trip to Alaska.
 Senator Tillman is strongly in favor of the upbuilding of the coast artfI- lery. the naval militia and every other branch of the national guard that will give the nation a body of men that might be mobilized in case of emer- .gency.
 "We must be prepared to meet such ,an onslaught as has been made by Germany" said the veteran Southern statesman. We may have to fight one of the European belligerents when the present war is over, and we would better be ready. I don't think we will have to fight England, because England is democratic country like our own.
 Among other things this govern ment ought to have on hand big stock of arms and ammunition--suf ficient to meet any emergency that might arise. We don't want to be like the Russians. with the rear rank waiting for the front rank to be shot Eso that they could get hold of a rifle to shoot with,
 And another thing we must do is. to find some way of awarding army and navy contracts on absolute merits, land put a stop to the work of the bunch of scondrels who rob the gov ernment every chance they get. It's about time wA stopped men from be- coming wealthy just because they have friends in Congress. If people would read Winston Churchills latest book, The Far Country they would have some idea of how these things are done"

POETRY
THRALL TO THE WIND.

Oh. the wind is in the cedars, and the
wind is in the palms,
And L listen to its muir like the
sound of many psalmsI
Oh, the wind is in the mans groves and
the live oaks how they sway
And the leaves of the banana bear the
burden of its lay!
And the urns of the hibiscus spill the
scarlet of their fire
On the wind that bTeathes among them
its old whisper OF desire;
And the oleanders WAIVER. and the rho
dodendrons find
Som etfling wootng. som ething suing in
the grooming of the wind.
And its sing-song never ceases for the
wind will have its will
In the green Bermudian valley, on the
green Bermudian hill.
Come the dawn across the water with
its shifting peacock dyes,
Or the pageant of the planets march
ing up the midnight skies.
Oh, the wind is in the bamboos, with
its immem orial strain,
Sweeping like the tides Of gIumber
from the haunted Spanish Main
I may not escape It's magic; it will
give me, it will bind
And my spirit will forever be a thrall
unto the wind!

IMMIGRATION PROBLEMS
Explained by Rev. DR.. Joseph n. Sell
den at First Congregational Church.

Rev. DR.. Joseph Henry Selden held
the close attention of the audience at
the First Congregational church Sun
day evening as he explained the slides
relating to the immigration problem at
Ellis Island. These slides will give us
an opportunity to study the expert
ences which come to the immigrant as
he stands upon the threshold Of our
country, he said. The constant factor
in the history OF the century is the
shifting of the races. Immigration, as
we see it there, Is a strange blending
of all the peoples of the world In i'm
mense numbers. Through our open
doors they come. We should welcome
them, train them, and perhaps save
them. Those now coming are more
alien and lack the intelligence of those
of the north of Europe, Last year over
500, 900 was added to our population,
since the war only 5000.
Among the many slides shown were
striking pictures 70 Cossacks, gypsies
and Russians, also of the Slavic edu-
cational department Of Oberlin college
and the Schauf1er schools for Bohemi-
ans in Cleveland. The passing Of the
immigrants through the various sta
tons Of Ellis Island was most inter-
esting, the test which the immigrants
do not understand, the examinations
by doctors and inspectors. the cases of
those detained, all were explained in
detail. About 10 per cent. are deport-
ed as unfit to remain.
Steerage travel is more comfortable
now. In New York city, benevolent or
CARNATIONS, working with the govern
ment, have abolished the trickery that
closing, the speaker urged a larger
patriotism, that will help toward the
uplifting Of those coming to us from
other lands

BY A NEW WAY.

"By a way that they knew not" Isa
~: 16.
The day had gone, alone and weak
[ CROPPED my way within bleak
And sunless land.
The path that led into the light
could not find, In that dark night
God took my hand.
He led me- that I might not stray.
And brought me by a new, safe way
I had not known,
BY waters still. through pastures green
I followed hinl-the path was clean
OF briar and stone.
The heavy darkness lost its strength,
My waiting eyes beheld, at length,
The streaking dawn.
On, safely on through sunrise glow
walked, my hand in his, and 10,
The night had gone!
