We don't suppose any girl would

only reason why she ever should
marry one. Most of the paragraph

into matrimony before they devel-

may explain matters.

And the foreign demand upon pres

is no chance to save up any to lift the

A ROMANTIC young couple were
married in Berkeley, Cal, by a mys-

water were elemental parts and then,
like the sensible young people they
are at the bottom, they went and got
married in the good old way, to make
it more binding.

HILL TAXES STAND TO TRY TO DISPROVE CORRUPT PRACTICES
 CHARGE BROUGHT BY DONOVAN
AND CABINET CONFER ON GERMAN NOTE Text of New Message. on Lusitania Before Meet
 ing Today.

Washington, July 20. -s President Wilson laid before the cabinet to-day an outline to Germany in response to Berlin's answer to the American notes on the sinking of the Lusitania and the submarine warfare.
 Ut was the first cabinet meeting in a month, and the secretaries, return ing from different sections of the country brought to the President their views of public sentiment. Gem erally. itswas for taking q firm stand.
 NO announcement Of any kind was made at the White House where it was indicated that the character of the note had not yet been finally de- ternained.
 There were no manifestations of tension in official quarters. the con hdence prevailing that. in the sab- sence of any new violation of Ameri- can rights, the situation would not be- come Immediately dangerous. Some officials were impressed. however, that the attack on the British steamer Or duna, endangering a score of Ameri- cans, had introduced new set> of circumstances, showing that even on voyages from Europe to the United States submarine warfare as being waged by Germany subjects neutraIs however, that any reference to the Orduna case would be made in the new American note.

ORDERS TO EVACUATE
 WARSAW EXPECTED

London, July 2o.-The uppermost question concerning the eastern cam paign now is>when Warsaw will be evacuated, rather than whether 1t will be given up.
 2 With virtually all of Courland in the hands of Field Marshal Won Hin denberg and with the Austria-Ger- man forces across the Bug, continued occupancy of the Polish capital ex- poses the Russians to the danger of disaster.
 From Windaw the Germans are re- ported to be advancing towards Riga, with the intention of seizing that port and clearing the nearby seas of mines, thus obtaining another naval base. All the glory has not, gone to Won Hindenburg, as his colleague, Field Marshal Won Mackensen, is CT edited with the capture of Krasnos- tav.
 On the western front the Germans apparently are content to maintain a series of sporadic attacks on various portions of the line.
 Paris claims the Germans suffered severe losses in an unsuccessful as sault on the heights of the Mouse.
 The coal strike situation is de- scribed in despatches from the mine fields as being more hopeful to-day.

 The discharge of the 70 hod carriers this morning, virtually cr1pp1es any attempt at strike for them, because they will have no representation in the shop after tomorrow. By that time, it 1t expected they and all their helpers will have been dropped from the job owing to the fact that there is no more work for them

 It is a question, according to dis cussion, whether there is strike al the BuI1ard Machine Tool Co. or not. It is not known if bhe ord CTS were properly delivered there. The men did not go back to work there but opinion differs as to whether they were locked out or they walked out

the story was told by an Ashlander.

to Ashland Wednesday evening for
the purpose of administering a second
defeat to the Ashland Elk Club team
but they will now have chance to

their return, told of the fine supper
served them by the Ashland boys
and other good things about the hos

was a reason but John and his COM

Want Laws Enforced

At meeting of the Viking club
held at the Lutheran church
parlors Wednesday evening,
December 9Th, 1915, the follow
ing resolution was unanimously
adopted:
Whereas punch boards, rou-
lette wheels and similar devises
are exhibited on nearly every
merchants counter within the
city, as means of extracting
additional nickles and dimes
from the young and weak
minded, and
Whereas this form of public
gambling is particularly insld-
ious. in so much as it prays par
ticularly on the small boy even
before school age and tends to
develop the gambling spirit
within him, and
Whereas a great many cities
have already recognized this
evil by prohibiting same within
it's borders; therefore be it
Resolved by the Viking Club
of Washburn, that we request
and urge our Mayor and Common
Council to prohibit punch boards
roulette wheels and all other
games of chance in connection
with merchandise or otherwise
within the city limits.

BIRTH OF A NATION
To Be Played in Ashland S Days

No town of it's class will have any
thing on Ashland the week of Dec.
10, for through the enterprise OF
Manager Latts, of the Royal, ar
engagements have just been perfected
to bring to this city, for five days,
the biggest and most widely adver-
tised thing in the history of amuse-
ments, G. w. Grifith's The Birth
of Nation, much talked of spec
tacular production of slavery, the
Civil War and Ku-Klux-Klan epoch.
Just imagine full week stand in
this city of thing SO gigantic as,
THE Birth of Nation, and at a
time, too, when seats are selling
from four to six weeks in advance in
New York City and Chicago for it,
and even ahead of many of the
country's greatest cities.
The big attraction will be put on
there at the Royal precisely as it is
now being produced in the Metro
polis--enlarged symphony orchestra
and full and complete outfit and
equipment are to be brought here
for that purpose.
1t is estimated that thousands of
people from the neighboring cities
and towns and country will thus be
attracted hither during the big week
and that no little outside money will
be left in the hands of the merchants
hotel keepers, etc. here, on account
of it.
AS Manager Latts says, it is
actually providing Ashland with a
great State FAN for week, with
all it's powerful attractions, abso-
lutely free of cost to the community.
