Police Commissioner Woods declared tuniGht in an address outlining the Preparedness campaign started in the department
 This Is not mere tLeory' he said. "ac~aUsc the department has plans mapped ou. on paper and thoroughly di-C-ted so that every member Of the force Is aware of his duty and knows just what is to be done in any specific kind or emergency that may arise.
 Conditions resulting from a disaster lik- the san Francisco fire would not cripple the police here MT. Woods con finued. "If New York were to have such a disaster" he said it would not be paralyzed five minutes as the police. with a complete Knowledge of just what the duties of each man con sisted. would immediately start a con corted plan of action to care for the homeless and clean up the chaos.'

WEEK END FIHDS VAR 5ITIIAT|0N
 IN EAST QUIET
Republican A. p. Leased wirel

LONDON. Dee. 1S.-Tbe week end finds the war situation in the east and west bearing the outward appearance of comparative quiet. and some ob- servers are ready to predict that op- eratione will virtually remain at a standstiH until after the holidays.
 Nevertheless there is no lack of food for speculation. particuWarly on the eastern front which now virtually stretches across two continents from north Russia to south Persia In the extreme north there have been unof- ficiaI reports that the promised new German thrust between Riga and Dvinsl has alrady begun. but neither Berlin nor Perograd confirms this in the official communications.
 Five hundred miles farther south the Russians believed they have checked another enemy attack to re- Sume the offensive in Galicia
 In the Balkan zone the first chapter is closed but with more than 2.0o0 00oo men of a dozen different nations under arms, it is not likely that the campaign will long remain quiet. on the friuges of the Balkans there is promise of new f'iiil''N rIl't' Ibl lIlt ibt4l-t Il~ ana Germans in the Italians operations through Albania and the Russian con centration in Bcssara hil. Meanwhile in the so-caned middle east. Grand Duke Nicholas advance to Hamadan brings strong Russian forces to within about 200 miles of Pagdad and f is believed in the entente capitols that his operations will put new life and new importance into the British opera tions in south Persia after the recent setback. The situation on the Greek border is surrounded with obscurity. The complications which diplomacy has recently been dealing with. are be- IeVcd to be in a fair way Of settlement. The Greek elections tomorrow appear not likely to be a serious factor in the situation as the refusal of the follow CTS of cX-Premier Nenezelos to Tar- ticipate will leave small chance for the elections to cause a change in Greek policy. But the threat of German advance into Greece continues and pro vides numerous possibilities for up sets.
 London, in the absence of definite war developments is dcvoting a large share of its attention to domestic af- fairs. The possibility of conscription for single men who failed to respond to Lord Derhy's call sharing the stage with proposals for lottery scheme finds considerable support in the press, the plan generally favored being the issue Of five per cent bond of which two per cent. is retained by the gov ernment for semi-annual distribution hV lot Of prizes ranging from &f 50 p0G doWnWards.
 The government has found if inn possible to prorogUe parliament before Christmas and it is assumed that on the resumption of business on January 4, the sessions will continue for about fortnight. The members probably will be summoned to return for the new session early in February.

NO SCARCITY OF PALMS.
From 5000 to 4.o0o Blessed and Dis-
 tributed at St. Patrick's Church.

News was given out from New York Saturday that there was to be a short age of palms for Palm Sunday, owing to blight attacking the palm planta- tions of central Florida, but there were plenty in this city and the usual 5000 or 4.000 were blessed and distributed at the high mass in St. Patrick S church, which mass was sung by Rev. Thomas A. Grumbly.
 At the offertory, Organist Frank L. Farrell played The Palms with cus- tomary skill and finish.
 At the three masses Sunday the rec tor. Rev. J. H. Frederick, read the Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ ac- cording to St. John. xviti-xix. 1-24.
 Rev. Father Broderick announced the usual order of services during Holy week and stated that the forty hours devotion would begin Easter Sunday, following the high mass.
 He read Bishop Nilan's circular let ter regarding the customary Easter of fering for diocesan charities, this year to be devoted principally to St. Agnes home for dependent infants, which cost over $200,000, and on which there is a balance unpaid. Father Broderick stated that St. Patrick's parish has long been noted for the Hberality of it's Easter offerings.

BETTER THAN CALOMEL
Edwards Olive Tablets Are Harmless Substitute

pr. Edwards Olive Tablets the substitute for caloInel - are a mild but sure laxative, and their effect on the liver is almost instantaneous. They are the result of Dr. Edwards determination not to treat liver and bowel complaints with calomel. His efforts to banish it brought out these little olive-colored tablets.
 These pleasant little tablets do the good that calomel does but have no bad after effects. They don't injure the teeth like strong liquids or calomel. They take hold of the trouble and quickly correct it. Why cure the liver at the expense of the teeth? Calomel sometimes plays havoc with the gums. So do strong liquids.
 It is best not to take calomel, but to let Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets take its place.
 Most headaches, "dullness" and that lazy feeling come from constipation and disordered liver. Take pr. Ed wards Olive Tablets when you feel "loggy" and heavy" Note how they Clear clouded brain and how they "perk up" the spirits. At 10c and 25c per box. All druggists.

BURGLARS WORK AGAIN BY SKYLIGHT ROUTE.
Entered Store of F. A. Wells Co., Took Out Glass and Put 1t Back.

Another burglary by way of a sky light was reported to the police on Sat-
 urday morning when the store of the
 K. A. Wells company was opened for
 business. It was found that the store
 had been entered by a skylight in the about $10O had been taken from the
 safe. The safe was left unlocked, but
 the money was in a compartment with
 the key where it could be found.
 Like other burglaries of a similar
 character recently, the burglars de-
 clined to take anything which if found
 might lead to theIr Identification, 1eav-
 ing behind @ valuable gold ring which
 was in the safe. It is reported that
 this is the second burglary at the store
 within 8 short time, but that the bur
 glars secured less than this at their
 previous visit.
 The thieves showed another mark of their cleverness this time by taking the
 glass out of the skylight and putting it back again so that even had a police inside were at work, there would have been nothing outside to arouse any suspicion. A rope was probably used to let the intruder down from the sky light and then taken away by the con- federate outside. The man who opened the safe came out by a side door at the rear of the store.
 The burglary at the Wells store brought out the information that when | a burglary was attempted a short time ago at the store of B. Gotthelf & Co.,, also by the skylight route, the intrud- | CTS got as far as saving off the hinges of the safe, but did not get into the safe.
 A rumor that the hinges of safe were cut was current at that time, but the police denied having any know ledge that such thing had been done. Since the burglary at the United Cigar store, the effective way in which l plain clothes men were located about the streets at night evidently check mated the burglars for a while, but they apparently have figured out how to avoid these watchers, as evidenced by the entrance made at Schwartz Brothers store on Thursday night and tf1e Wells Stora Eridau nj
