Juggles on Frail Perch High Above
 Thrilled Throng

ssDaredeviP' Jack Reynolds of Phila- delphia, the man who a few years ago electrified New York city by climbing the outside walls of the F'latiron building, gave a public exhibition on the top of tho Warner building, Fair field avenue and Middle street, that thrilled a. large crowd that assembled as his intentions became known.
 Reynolds, perilously near the edge of the roof coping, i've stories above ground, piled three tables, one upon another, ascended the pyramid and taking two chairs nonehalantly bal anced one upon the other and himself stood upon their backs. He then pro ceeded to astound the assembled audi epce below by a juggling performance which he accomplished with three coll ored balls.
 The feat is one of the most daring witnessed in this city since the ap- pearance of Clifford Caverly. the tight wire walker, whose exhibitions at the Island were noted events. Reynolds has been engaged at the Poli theatre in a series of death defyipg acrobattc acts.

 sA Philadelphia man, he said, was hurrying out Powelton avenue one aft ernoon when all of sudden an organ grinders little monkey dropped dead. The poor grinders grief was pitiful. The PhiladeIphian, touched, gave him e half dollar and dlastened away. An hour later, returning through Market street, he saw the same organ grinder, and just as he passed the monkey again dropped dead. and the grinders grief was even more pitifuI than before. The Philadelphinn gave loud laugh. The grinder. recognizing him, also laughed, but made no motion to return the half dollar

ITALIAN

Rome, Oct. 28-Italian advances on the heights Of Santa. Lucia and ;oppo- site Tolmino and the capture of a field fort southeast Of Globna are re- corded in the ofl7eial statement issued by the war office. The sEatanl ent says.
 From new positionss one on the right bank Of the Adige. which conn mands positions at the bottom of the valley, OUT artillery on Oct sur prised and seriously damaged one Of the enemyss military trains which was moving toward the Sant IlarioE staL ton north of Rovereto.s
 stOn the upper Cordevole, Oct. 26, on the rugged slopes Of Col Di Ians we storned another fort filled with hostile troops. We found the enemy s trenches choke with bodies. We took eight nrisoners
 ssIn the Monte Nero zone on the night of the 25th and 26th the enemy in great strength again tried to attack our positions above Vodi1. We allow ed them to come within a. short dis stance, then moved down. and dispersed them with our cross-fires
 Our offensive accompl fresh progress on the height of San Lucia and opposite To1nino where we made 21 prisoners Tn the UIava zone we conquered a field fort southeast Of G1obna. We took prisoners survivors of the garrison to the number of Il o2 four of them officers, and ca ptured two machine guns.

known to the business public and no figures are necessary beyond the state ment that we have altogether the largest crops in our history and their total value also exceeds all previous records. Some figures on Cotton will be interesting as cotton will be second only to Wheat in total value exported. Of the new crop 2,9OO thousand bales were ginned up to September 25, com pared with 3,394 thousand bales year ago. Exports of cotton for Sep tember were 502 thousand bales com pared with 126 thousand bales 8 year ago. The number of Cotton spindles active during September was 31,295 thousand compared with SO,307 thou sand a year ago.
 As noted earlier in this report, our exports to the neutral countries have declined instead of increased and there should have been a, material in- crease during the East year. The principal countries of Europe have Invested perhaps five billion dollars in South America and by this means have built up an important and sub stantiaI4 trade with that Continent. Any material increase in our exports to South America must be preceded by the investment of capital in those countries
 It should be our present and great est concern to take advantage of the home trade possibilities just now be- fore as never pSIOES A0N0 the pSO- pIe of this country had the money with which to indulge their needs and their. fancies as they have at this present moment. A few isolated eases of unemployment in few scattered cities should not be a sufficient ar gument to cast any doubt as to our trade prospects with our own people. whether we deal in necessities or 1uxuries, whether in steel. building materials, furniture, clothing or au tomobfIes. our opportunity. is now and the internal trade of the United States between this date and the New Year bids fair to. set a record far above the previous high mark. Conserva- tisrn is advisable now as always but with the exception of 9 few lines of trade the business is to be had if the proper amount Of energy and effort is .exnended.

Faculty Recital
Reveals Some
True Artists

The second of series OF faculty re-
citals was given in the recital hall of
the South Bend Conservatory last
evening 10 a large and appreciative
audience. The program was given by
Miss Hazel Harris. soprano, assisted
by Frank r. kendrie, violinist. ac-
companied by Miss Dora HershenOw,
pianist The program presented was
one OF unusual worth. opening with
the first sonata for violin and piano
by Cries. The Interpretation gwen TO
this truly noble work of Griegs re-
Quired great technical ability and skill
on the part of both players. That
each arose TO its demands was evident
throughout the unfolding OF its three
intricate movements. The compost
tons OF GiTieg have style and naivete
peculiarly their own. reminding one
OF the temper and characteristics OF
the cold northland, Grieg's home.
There was "a warmth of cOloring and
fine feeling for the lights and shades
OF the Norwegian temperament in Mr..
kendrie's reading. The sonata OPEN
ed with an Allegro con Brio move
mont in which sureneSS of attack and
perfect ensemble were evinced The
second movement. Allegro quasi an
dantimo. not slow movement as in
the sonatas Of many OF the older
school. but an Andantino with mo-
ton. giving opportunity for many can
table effects and sweetness of violin
tone. The third movement the ALLIE
gro motto Vivace was perhaps this

ENGLAND WILL PAY FOR
ALL COTTON CARG0ES

WASHINGTON, May 21.-The Brit
ish embassy gave out the following
statement Tuesday night in reference
to the detention of cotton cargoes in
Great Britain:
The British embassy are informed
that the British government are do
ing all they can to expedite the pur-
chase of cotton cargoes and are in
direct communicating for this pur-
pose with the American cotton repre-
sentative in London. Payment will
be made without delay in each case to
the proper parties on proof that they
are the persons entitled to payment
and on their furnishing evidence of
contract price. Need for these par
ticulars is now the only obstacle to
making payment"
The long detention of cargOes of
cotton in British ports and the con-
tinued difficulties OF the shippers in
getting a settlement from the British
government are two of the matters
which are said here TO demand a new
note 10 Great Britain.
