Horace Gee, who became known
throughout England as "the indis-
pensable man" as the result of a de-
bate in Parliament. has been killed In
action in the Dardanelles.
After he had enlisted, the Btrming-
ham Chamber of Commerce petitiOned
Parliament to release him from mill
tary service, on the ground that his
services as an expert maker Of needles
were indispensable to the boot trade
of central England. The matter was
brought up in Parliament and the gov
eminent was compelled to defend it's
refusal to release Gee, stating that the
shortage of needles had not so far af-
fected the rate of production Of army

WAR NOTES

fAsso, lated Press Correspondence
Berlin, July 16.-The Emperor Will
liam is probably godfather to more
boys than any other person on earth.
but he is so we'll able to stand up un-
der the strain that he has issued an
order that presently will increase the
number of his proteges. The rule
formerly has been that he would as
sumo the responsibility of being god
father to a seventh son born to any
family provided the boy was seventh
son by one and the same marriage.
Under this ruling many seventh sons
have had to do without the honor. be-
cause the mother had been twice mar
ried. The Emperor now has modified
the rule and announced that he will
become godfather to any seventh son.
regardless of the number of marriages
the mother has contracted, provided
all seven boys are living.
Berlin, July 16 The railway devel-
opment of Asia Minor is being pushed

TO THE PATRONS OF THE
CRYSTAL NTHEATRE.

To all those who heretofore have
felt a delicacy at attending our vaude-
vile performances we wish to say that
while we feel that great many of our
companies have done themselves cred
it and have been patronized by our
best citizens we are aware that they
have not always been just what they
should have been and what we would
like to have them be. However, our
chief aim has been to eliminate all
causes for objections and to have our
performances patronized freely by Ia
dies and children.
Our contracts with the companies
are liberal and give us the privilege
of cancelling any company that dares
step beyond decency in word or dress.
We have learned something from every
company played here and announce
that we are better prepared now than
ever to carry out our policy of a de-
cent show for decent people.
Where to draw the line in dress, as
there are so many different opinions
on this, has been one of the perplex-
ing questions and, we wish to acknowl-
edge our Indebtedness to the Womans
Club here who have kindly agreed to
send representatives to pass upon all
features of the sho wand whatever
they pronounce as unfit will not be
permitted in the Crystal. We believe
this method will meet with the ap-
prova1 of the Goldsboro public, but
the companies playing here will rea-
lize the benefit to themselves of being
able to publish elsewhere that their
show met the approval of the board
of censors of the Goldsboro Womans
/ Club. Upon this announcement we
respectfully solicit your patronage and
your criticism.

WASHINGTON DISCUSSES RE
 PORTED CAPTURE oUERETARo

WASHINGTON. May 9. The re- ported capture of Quertaro by Zapata forces cooperating with Villa in his campaign in Central Mexico, while unconfirmed in advices to the state Department, proved of great interest to officials here The Villa agency claimed that Quertaro was captured yesterday, cutting Obregon from hls base at Vera Cruz Recent reports to the Carranza agency said that the Zapata troops has been driven back to within twenty miles of Mexico City. Qrertaro controls both the railroads leading to Vera Cruz from the region about Iraputo, where the Villa and Obregon forces have been facing each other for the last six weeks. Obre- gons offensive campaign was launch ed at that point and repPSs from Vera Cruz have insisted that he is moving northward toward Aguas Calientes' where Villa has reorganized his army after an unsuccessful attempt to cap ture Celaya
