 Should "mollycoddles become con- spicious in discussing preparations for national defense, Colonel Roosevelt is very likely to forget his resolution not to talk to them.-Washingto Star.
 The report that the bicycle will come back cannot be true. That is to say, it cannot be true unless some body has invented a bicycle that can hold it's own in collision with the omobile.-Buffalo Enquirer.
 If high taxes make England sell most of her high art to the United States, the ghosts of the Old Masters will sing Hal1elujah! American 5u1- shine alone does justice to their col ors-Brooklyn Eagle.
 Over 100000 lives sacrificed in this welter of blood across the deep and nothing of permanent advantage gained on either side and no ques- tion settled. The twilight of the gods sure enough-mankind gone mad. Kultur has not yet triunpned over the beast in man, and the murder of the innocents is still the pastime of kings.-Berkshire Eagle
 luCIS uSCu IO Do d great uGdl CL talk about abandoned farms in the Eastern and Middle States. There are a good many means as many as there were a few years since The statement is given publicity that now there are no abandoned farms in Connecticut. That seems to be pretty broad, but it may be-. and probably is, practically true. There was a few years ago certainly as good land in the Eastern and Middle States un- occupied as could be had away cut West, and with larger promise of profit if intelligently and diligently cIltiva ted.-Utica Press. .-
 After year of war the number of British vessels destroyed (by German submarines) amounted. to only four per cent. of the total number en- ployed' As to the value of the car goes lost in the same period, it is put at f7,240,00, while the total val ue of the cargoes carried apart from those of the government trans ports-is estimated at f1,502.OO0, 0,OOO.- The loss, therefore, has been at the rate or about one-half, of one per cent. It will be seen then, that Ger man hopes are still long way from fulfilment and that the expectation that trade would be paralyzed by fear has come to nought.-New York Tribune

MOLINE CLUB HAS
ANOTHER FIELDER
Charles c. Holmes III semi-Pr0 Rep,
utation win Join Pillow Boys
In Spring Has Great Whip.

Charles C. Holmes. IS years old, will
be given opportunity next spring to
try for a place on the Moline Three
Eye baseball team. Holmes is an in
fielder and has gained an -enyiable rep
utation as Il semi-pro player. His
work has attracted attention OF club
owners OF the minor leagues Holmes
contract was received this morning by
L. K. Blackman, secretary Of the Mo
line club.
If the recruit makes good in his
tryout next spring it is probable that
he viii replace Falk at shortstop, the
latter being placed at second base
Holmes is reported as having a great
whip and no doubt would give better
account of himself at the shortstop
position Falk last season showed a
tendency to be wild in his throws to
first. a fault which he could undoubt-
edly overcome if playing the keystone
position.
Holmes. in addition to being a good
fielder, is capable Of pounding the bali
and it is thought he viii prove a val
liable addition to the Plow Boys ag-
gregation.

Official Text of the Austrian Note

tea cane to grief ia the incident III
question. the imperial and royal GOV
eminent Is in principle ready to enter
into an exchange Of views IN the ar
fair With the government Of the Unit
ID States
"It must. however. IN the first place,
raise the question why that govern
meut failed 20 give 1uridicaI reasons
for tina demands set forth in its note
with reference 10 the special circum-
stances OF the discriminating events on
which at itself lays stress, and why in
lieu thereof It referred to an exchange
Of correspondence which it has con
Quoted with another government in
other cases.
THE imperial and royal government
is the less able to follow the Wash
ington cabinet on this unusual path,
since it by no means possesses au-
thentic knowledge OF all the pertinent
correspondence Of the government Of
the United States. nor is it Of the opiu-
ion that such knowledge might be SUI
iicient for IL in the present case. which
in so far as it is informed is in essen
tlaI parts of another nature than the
case or cases to which the government
of the United States seems TO alude-
The imperial and royal government
may therefore leave it to the Washing
ton cabinet to formulate the particular
points Of law against which the conf
handing officer Of the submarine is
alleged to have offended in the occa-
sion Of the sinking Of the Ancona.
THE government Of the United
States has also seen fit to refer to the
attitude which the Berlin cabinet as
sumed in the aforementioned CORE
spondence The imperial and royal
government finds in the much esteem
ed note no indication whatever Of the
intent with which this reference was
made. Should, however, the govern
ment of the United States thereby have
/ intended TO express an opinion to the
effect that d prejudice Of whatever ma
ture existed for the imperial and royal
government with respect TO the iurid-
ical consideration OF the affair in ques-
ton. this government must, in order
TO preclude possible misunderstand-
ings, declare that as a matter Of course
/ # reserves 10 itself full freedom of
maintaining its own legal views in the
discussion Of the case Of the Ancona.
IN having the honor to have re-
course to the kindness of his excel
lency. the ambassador Of the United
States Of America, with the most re-
spectful request to be good enough to
communicate the foregoing to the
American government and on this oc-
casion 10 state that the imperial and
royal government, in no less degree
than the American government, and
under all circumstances, most sincere
ly depl0res the fate Of the innocent
victims of the incident in question,
the undersigned at the same time
avails himself Of this opportunity to
renew the expression Of his most dis
tinguished consideration to his excel
lency, the ambassador.

Materials for Goats.

The heavy coatings that bid fair to hold a prominent place this spring are, of course, higher in price, but then they are not so expensive after all, for they are very wide, and only a small number of yards is necessary to com plete a garment The rich oriental colors still hold their own in these materials, and for outing wear they are lovely. Even the conservative dresser does not hesitate to don one of these lovely colorful top coats when spending a time at a southern resort or in the country Dress stuffs are only a trifle less coorful, and at first one might get the impression that white had been excluded in the dress goods plan This is by no means so, and almost any weave that is found in color is also to be had in plain white. There is this to be said, however, that almost every white gown, unless one is in mourning, has a liberal touch of color introduced in the way of trim ming.
