Stirred to the depths of imagi-
nation and patriotic feeling, men
who sit in the places Of the great
in the council rooms of nineteen
American nations last night gath
cred about a banquet table in the
Pan-American Union building
and solemnly pledged each other;
in the interest of pan-American-
ism, to lift anew the heavy bur
dens caused by the war in Eu-
rope, and to bear them in the
name of the ideal of liberty, out
of which the American republics
have grown.
Gathered in Washington to
solve some of the problems
brought to the American repub-
lies by the war in Europe, tne
delegates to the pan-American
financial conference, which came
to close yesterday afternoon at
the Pan-American building,
avowed themselves pioneers last
night of new pan-American
ideal, as they broke the bread and
ate the salt of the United States,
with the Secretary of the Treas
ury of the United States as host.
They were led into cheers again
and again by DR.. Santiago Perez
Triana, delegate of the republic
of Colombia, as he called to
| them: ..
"Hearken to the call, ye Amer
leans Of all nations! Look We well
to it! Each one to his own duty /!
lniquity kills the nation as a
deadly poison kills the man. In
this cluster of the free nations of
the American continent we are
going to give the lie to the ac-
eepted verdict of history. These
nations will form an empire,
without an emperor, welded to
the happiness and greatness Of
mankind, SO long as the peoples
remain loyal and faithful to the
guiding principles Of democracy
inscribed on the threshold Of their
history"
Warns Against Imperialism.

Imperialism. The whisper of Mexico.

Americas In which the banquet was
held. as he declared:

John Bull To
Make Glass

LONDON, May 25.-Formulas for
making the finer glasses for which
Great Britain has been dependent on
Germany have been evolved by the
glass research committee of the Insti
tute of Chemistry Unbreakable glass
for miners lamps and glass capable of
standing high degrees of heats and
test tubes, retorts, steam gauges and
the like had been entirely imported
from Germany. But analyses of glass
of this kind conducted at Kings Col
lege, London, by Prof. Herbert jack
son, T. P. Merton and assistants, have
at least been helpful in suggesting
synthetic experiments. The work in
volved careful study of the chemistry
of silicates, aluminates, borates and
the like in relation to the manufacture
of glass. AS the result, the research
committee reports eleven formulas,
which have been subjected to rigor-
Gus practical tests to prove their suit
ability. Among the most successful is
one for miners lamps-a matter Of
great Importance in the coal mining
districts.
The formulas have been put at the
service of the manufacturers without
charge in order that these special
glasses may soon be produced on a
large industrial scale.

AUSTRIAN GOVERNMENT IS
IN JUNK BUSINESS

VIEENA, May 25.-A house to house
collection is being made in Vienna for
old metal for war purposes. The col
| lecting work is being done by school
children. The military authorities and
the munition manufactures are run
hing short of copper, brass, tin, nickel
and other metals, and the public is
appealed to for all kinds of worn out
and broken household wares of these
metals. The Patriotic War Metals Col
lecting Fund has established store
rooms with show windows in which are
displayed specimens of articles desired
such as brass condlesticks, bronze
figures, copper moulds, saucepans and
metal plates and dishes. Some 300
900 pounds of stuff is being brought in
daily.
Emperor Francis Joseph has direct
ed that about eight tons of old metal
articles of the most miscellaneous
character should be sent from the
Hofburg and the palace at Schoen-
brunn, and an archaeologist is sending
large quantity of Roman lead, ex.
cavated at the historic camp of Car
nuntum, near Pressburg, just across
the Hungarian frontier. A Vienna
bank has given old brass gas candel-
abra and petroleum lamps weighing
nearly a ton, and rubber manufac-
tury at Bruenn, Moravia has sent half
a ton of brass sheets which can be
used directly for making cartridge
cases.
In another recent canvas of the city
four hundred and seventy-three big
wagon loads of miscellaneous effects,
valued at $260,O00 have been gathered
in for the troops in the field, and for
various charitable war organizations.
The wagons went through every street,
rich and poor districts alike, on r,sfrty-
five collecting days between the middl4
of December and the end of March.
The public responded most generously
with an extraordinary variety of gifts.
Among the principal items were over
two million cigarettes, and a vast store
of other smoking supplies, $4,000 lbs.
of chocolate cakes, biscuits, butter,
flour, and other edibles, 5000 pounds
of candles and soaps, 4,700 bottles of
wine, 5000 jars of preserved fruits
1000 boxes of canned meats, and 1850
bottles of mineral water.
There were immense quantities of
warm clothing including 10000 WOOL
en- garments, 10000 pieces of under
wear, $4,000 articles of clothing, $4,000
pairs of shoes, and 3,400 hats and caps.
The whole work has been carried out
by a special organization composed
largely Of the women of Vienna. The
actual collecting work was done by
Boy Scouts.

ECONOMY IN
ITS TRUE SENSE

There has been a Business Mems
club organized at Churchs Ferry q, l
here is what the Sun has to say OF the
economical manner in which it is con-
Quoted:
A "Busy Mems Club" was organized
about a week ago and has established
headquarters in the jacobson building
west of the postofice. The principal
promoters of this organization are Ja'.
Mccormick and A. L Noltinier. They
meet for an hour every afternoon and
have game of cards or checkers just
to break the monotany of things and
to relieve their minds and bodeis of
the ;.rdous duties and responsibilities
of life. Owing to the members being
cramped financially, the club is being
run very economically. After the club
had run one week it checked up it's ac-
counts and found that the expendi-
lures had been but five cents per day,
which was spent for coal oil, for heat
ing purposes. The room is donated
and the stove is borrowed.
