HERALD NEWSIE GRABS COIN IN
REAR OF HERALD
The alley by the Herald Office seems
to be a dangerous place if you happen
to have money on your person.
Louis Luderkonop of 618 Sanga-

tween Madison and Washir Ston SITS.
near 9Th av. last night. When he
reached the Herald Office he was
stopped by some of the harmless,
playful children who are hired by Jim
Kelley to deliver papers, and explain
things" to the newsboys.
Here one of the harmless youths
extracted So from his pockets in
some happy manner after consider
able time was spent in cavorting
about the alley.
Louis managed to get out of the
Herald alley alive. He called Officer
C. Smith of the central detail and
Harry Marks, who gave his address
as The Herald was arrested on a rob-
berry charge.
When the matter came up before
Judge Trude in the boys court To-Day,
on the recommendation of some mys-
ferrous person the charge was chang
ed to petit larceny, a minor offense
punishable by light fine or SEN

The case was continued until Mon

the motion to change the charge to
a less serious one.
ARMOUR SUITS CONTINUED

Take A Vacation

Again we say, as we do each
summer, that a vacation is as
necessary as food and clothing
if one wants to do more than
simply exist. We say it more
heartily than ever this year after
having had such a pleasant out
ing. A vacation does not nec-
essarily mean the expenditure Of
a great deal Of money, but a
change from the work that you
have done all winter and q change
of surroundings. The winter rut
is hard to get out of but it gets
deeper if you stay in all summer,
and then your vision is cut off
and before long you are looking
at life through a knot hole in
place Of from the mountain top.
Get Quits fine. We we tried j
and we want to hear our friend
say SO too. Take a vacation if
its no farther than to nearby
lake.
The Washburn leader., 1915-08-20

When in Canada the war zone
seemed a little too near. Many
English soldiers in khaki, uni
forms and Highlanders in kills
were seen on the streets; big
posters were stretched across tn
front of buildings telling men
that the king and their country
needed their services; the edi'
torials in all the. papers urged
men to enlist, while in another
column on the same page a list
of Canadian casualties" were
given showing the number OF
men who had died or were
wounded; all bridges were pa
trolled by soldiers and the con
versation at all times was upor
war. The terribleness Of it al
cannot be realized in our peace
full states.
The Washburn leader., 1915-08-20

Every traveller in Canada helpt
the war fund. The war tax
stamps in the home Of the Kan
nucks are as plentiful as the
revenue tax stamps in the United
States. Travellers cheques and
pullman reservations cost two
and ten cents extra. 1t cost
two cents to send postal card
and three to mail a letter. Pen.
mics do not look as big at home
as they do while travelling, but
when one hears of the sufferings
Of the poor soldiers the mite con
tibuted is gladly given. Home
talent concerts, both in the cities
and on the boats, help, to buy
little "extras" for the boys
away from home. $1,000 are sai
to have been sent from Canada
and more are being enlisted.
1t will take a great many war
stamps and concerts to make
their life a little happier while
in the trenches.

The matter Of neutral trade in mu

The matter Of neutral trade in mu-
nitions of war is one of the questions
to be settled in the revised interna-
tional law. It has come to the front
before. Sale Of European arms to the
Confederacy WAS problem for the
United States to contend with fifty
years ago. but ns 1t practically block
AIDED all southern ports importation by
the south was difficult and could have
nc decisive influence upon the fortunes
OF the war. The system: Of, armament
= now 80 complicated, new inventions
and types so frequent, and the expense
Of changes to keep up to date Is 80
enormous, that many conservative ma
lions will prefer to depend upon the
worlds market instead Of investing
vast sums in weapons which may be
obsolete before war crisis is on. In
ternational law can't pretend to safe
guard weaklings who look for privi-
leges without risks. "All is fair in
war;" says the adage, and those who
engage in war must take their chances
that luck may favor their foe.

A little of the history of the
bell may be of interest. 1t was
cast in London in 1852 by order
of the Assembly Of Pennsylwani
1t was brought to Philadelphia
in that year and at the first trial
was Cracked by a stroke ,of
the clapper without any other
violence. The bell was recast {;
the. first trial was not satisfactory
the Liberty Bell being the result
of the second effort. The bell
was hung in the tower Of Inde-
pendence Hall and used to con-
uene the assembly, call public
meetings, and on July 8, l776, it
rang when the Declaration Of In
dependence was proclaimed. In
1777, when Philadelphia was
about to be invaded, the bell was
taken to Allentown, Pa. It was
returned in the same year and
rung on every occasion Of note
in triumph when CORVALLIS sur
rendered at Yorktown, in sorrow
when Washington was buried,
in joy. when Lafayette revisited
America. During the funeral
obsequies Of Chief Justice John
Marshall Of the Supreme Court,
the great expounder of the con-
stitution on July 8, 1885, it ran
for the last time. 1t cracked on
that day and was never recast.

The matter Of calling in inventors,
specialists. experts or what not to set
tie questions Of. efficiency in depart
ment foreign to their daily experiences
has its light and dark sides. Had the
rockbound conservatism of the United
States naval board had its way In
1862 the north would have had no
monitor to protect Washington from
the ram Merrimac and no ironclads on
the Mississippi river. Enthusiasts like
Ericsson and Eads bored their way
through technical opposition and revo-
lutionized naval warfare. The south
had the same trouble. Individual gen
ius and energy built many Of its best
rams and ironclads. Times have
changed. Of course, and IL invention
and development have about reached
the limit then the question Of ehicien-
cy and adaptability to our needs Of ex-
listing types can best be settled per-
haps by experienced naval constructors
and officers who have studied their art
while walking the BRIDGE"

If a New Rockford booster had
been on the N. p. train the other
day while passing through the
small town of Mckenzie, just
east of Bismarck, he would have
overheard conversation that
would make him think the capi-
tol should be moved at once. A
stranger in North Dakota was
reading in the observation car
when the train stopped at Nc
Kenzie, he suddenly closed his
book looked out the window near
him, crossed the car to look out
of the window on the opposite
side, then called the porter and
said "Porter, is this Bismarck 2"
