WORN OUT SHIPS But PERFECTLY

II is now explained that the French
battleship Bouvet, which was sunk in
the Strait of Dardaneles by hostile
mine. was an old vessel and was to have
been rclegated to the scrap heap at The
end of the present calendar year anyway;
in fact. most Of the battleships sent in
the advance line OF the attacking French
feet were vessels OF an older age and
were almost past the period Of their
standard efficiency. What Of the men
aboard the Bouyet and the other OLD
ships that were sent as a sacrifice 20
the Turkish mines Surely they were
not the older and more feeble seamen
who were passing their days Of useful
ness. Knowing the naval policy Of sac-

been particularly pleased a. being placed

Who have not as yet been flttingly rec

who have not as yet been fittingly rec
ognized.
To establish this point it Is unneces'
sary to go farther than to refer to Ira
Allen and Thomas Chittenden, men
whose genius and resource were essen
tial to the very birth Of Vermont. What
has been done for these two historic
characters? Ii Vermont has to choose
between Allen aud Chittenden on the
one hand and Perry on the other, what
must the answer be? And this choice
confronts Vermont,
1t is with regret that the situation
il thus, but that the state Is in no
condition to respond to the eloquent and
moving appeal of the famous general
should not be taken as meaning that his
words fell on deaf or unapprecative ears.
Vermont wishes him good fortune in his
laudable enterprise, but she must first
care for her own sons before she reach
es beyond her borders. St Adams Mes

That German supporter, "The Father
land" published in New York, now as
serts that the action OF the Prinz Eitel
Friedrich in sinking the American steam
or William P. Frye with her cargo Of
wheat was mistake" but tries to miti.
gate the enormity Of the mistake by
stating that the captain Of the Eitel
Friedrich did not know that the declara
ton of London has gone into the discard
along with other scraps Of paper lg-
norance of the law does not exonerate
the person who violates that law when
he i arraigned in an American court !
and no more i it likely to exonerate
the captain Of the Eitel Friedrich when
it comes to a question Of reparation for
the loss OF the Frye and her cargo.

It looks as if Italy were waiting for
some real good pretext to make her en-
trance into the war appear plausible
Up to the present time, the chief reason
why she should intervene in behalf oil
the allies is her dislike, distrust and
hatred OF Austria; and, when analysed
that does not constitute strong, i'm
polling reason for going to war. To use
the exact term there has been no casus
bell worthy Of the name, by which
great nation could be plunged into war
against another nation already at war
Austria, of late has been quite careful
that such casus belli should not de-
velop through her initiative.

Under Fire
By WILLIAM CHANDLER

At twenty minutes past 3 o'clock In
the morning, when the people in the
town OF Yarmouth. on the east coast
OF England. were wrapped In slumber
there sounded on the still air the
stroke OF bell. Hundreds, thousands
OF persons started up and listened
Within few seconds there was an
other and another stroke, until Il was
evident that not the hour was being
struck, but an alarm. Then on the
streets were heard sounds OF men run
ming. followed by a cry.
Turn out. The Germans!
Then a boom, and in a few seconds
a deafening explosion.
The colonel Of the woman's regiment
Jumped out OF bed aud into her uni

that there was delay said sharply

MORE TROOPS TO BORDER
RAIDS CONTINUE DESPITE REC
IGNITION.
Twenty-Eiehth Regiment of Infantry
Ordered to Harlingen From
Galveston.

Washington, D. C.-The twenty.
eighth regiment of infantry has been
ordered from Galveston to Harrington,
Tex, by the war department, as a re-
suit of the renewal of bandit raids
on Texas border towns.
The troops will be used by Gen.
Funston to give added protection to
small posts such as that at Ojo del
Aqua, where three soldiers were
killed and eight wounded in a bandit
attack.
Officials said that the army was
doing all it legally could to check the
bandit raids at the border. The sit
~uation, they said, was not a military
one but a civil one, under the juris-
diction of Texas. Unless the COVER
nor should formally ask for federal
Intervention there is no authority for
the establishment of a military zone
and the declaration of martial law,
Many of the raiders live on the Amer
lean side, officials believe. Army de
tachments guarding various towns
may repel attacks, but cannot go be-
yond that without additional author
ity. AS it is, the troops are acting
beyond a rigid Interpretation of theiI
power in aiding in pursuit of raiders
War department officials, however,
will give every possible aid to the
civil authorities in protecting towns
and ranches.

BOARD TO PAY FOR COTTON
British Government Notifies WASH
ington Settlements Will Be
Made for Staple.

Washington, D. C.-The British
government notified the state depart
ment that it will pay for American
cotton purchased by the British board
of trade not included in specific con
tracts.
The following announcement of a
%cablegram received from Consul Cen
eral Skinner at London was made by
the state department:
"The British board Of trade has de-
cided to make final settlement for
American cotton which it purchased,
but which was not covered by sale
contracts, at market value at the port
of shipment on the date of shipment,
plus all expenses, including freight,
insurance, war risk and interest. In
making settlement actual contracts
made at about the same date will be
taken as a further guide in arriving
at a fair price to the shippers"

.lrses Must Not Mako pIaanoses.

..Lrses Must Not Make Diagnoses.
A stand has been taken by the Mis-
souri, State Board Of Health against
trained nurses being sent to diagnose
diseases, especially diphtheria.
The board in a resolution took the
position that nurses are not compe-
tent to paSs judgment upon such So
rious cases.
The resolution follows:
Whereas, it has been brought to
the attention of the state board of
health, from the recent newspaper re-
port Of an outbreak of diphtheria in
st. Louis county, that trained nurses
were sent out to pass judgment upon
such cases of d~iphtheria, be it
Resolved. That in the opinion Of
the board such a procedure is funda'
mentally wrong, inasmuch as trained
nurses are not competent to pass up
on such cases, and that the employ
ment of nurses in such circumstances
is calculated to give the nurses wrong
impressions of the duties they r lie,
gally allowed to perform, and is a men
ace to the public health, nurses not
being trained to make diagnoses"
The session of the board was behind
closed doors, and the resolution was
not made public until given out by
DR.. J.. B. Adcock, secretary of the
| board.

AUTO MACHINlsTs ON STRIKE
Union Men Ask Eight-Hour Day and
Motor Car Company
Refuses.

Cleveland, Ohio. The biggest
of the recent series of the machinists'
strikes in this city came when 1000
employees of the Peerless Motor Car
Co. struck at the noon hour yester-
day. The men quit upon orders Of
John Luthringer, national organizer
of the Machinists' Union.
The strike comes, union officials
say, because demands for the eight
hour day and other concessions had
been refused. hTe Peerless company
has been building large consignments
of automobiles for war orders.
