LITTLE INTERVIEWS WITH
HOLIDAY VISITORS TO CITY

II all the year was like the present
time, operating a hotel would be about
as lucrative as an ice plant in Green
land. This is the one season of the year
when every man, woman and child
tries to get home. If he has no home.
an effort is made to set to the home
of someone else. They certainly do
not linger around hotels The registers
OF local hotels contain but few names
and a very dun time is expected until
the first of January. However, a big
rush is certain then, and the money
which is not coming into the hands
of the hostelries this week is not wor-
rying them as they know what to ex-
pect after the holidays
"The man who lives in Alabama and
does not like politics need not be con-

there will be warm fight just as
soon as the holidays pass, and there
will be much rivalry in the state for
| national convention and as national
committeeman. Indications also point
to some warm fights in the different
congressional districts among promi-
nent political leaders who are anxious
to be delegates to aid in the nominal

LONDON. July 13.-Relative quiet has
descended upon the entire eastern battle
front. There are more engagements in
north Russian Poland around Suwalki.
where the Germans claim to have cap
tured a little less than two and a half
miles of the Russian front.
The Russians hold the Austrians south
Of Lublin and north of Krasnik. and no
reports come of the activities Of the
Germans under General Won Mackensen.
There Is nothing to indicate that fight

Bzura region, or in the region of the

dispatch from Vienna announces
that, having accomplished their object
in driving the Russians out Of Lemberg
the Austro-Germans will now rest while
they make ready for a drive from an en-
tirely new base and in another direction
This may be taken: to mean that the

ATTEMPTED HOLD.UP
ESCAPED SPR|NG-R|CE
British Ambassador Declares He
Can Neither Deny Nor A.
firm the Story.

sir Cecil Spring Rice. the British am
bassador. declared today that he could
neither deny nor affirm the report that
an attempt was made to waylay him
during a motor trip on a lonely section
Of the Jericho turnpike outside of New
York city on the night of July 5.
Members Of the embassy who asked
the ambassador concerning the story
quote him as declaring that he had no
knowledge of any attempt to hold up
his car, although it might have been
possible for such an attempt to escape
his notice. he. being inside the car.
which was closed during the trip.
'All l know" the ambassador is
quoted as saying. lis that l motored
from Mr.. Morgans house to the home of
Mr.. Willard Straight on the night in

in the usual way"
The details of the attempt to hold up
been made the subject of report to the
Federal authorities by one of Mr.. Nor
gans Chauffeurs, who drove the ambas-
sador's car on the night in question.
From him 1t was learned that a big
touring car was thrown at right angles
across the Jericho pike and six men
leaped from 1t, attempting to form a
cul-de-sac from which the car could
not escape. Their design was foiled, de-
clares the chauffeur, when, turning al
right angles he drove the car across
unfenced fields to another parallel road

T0DkY'S BEAUTY
SUGGESTIONS

Face powder simply covers up an un-
attractive complexion and leaves no
lasting benefits. Those who have tried
simple spurmax face lotion find it
much better. as 1t removes skin dis
colorations. such as freckIes and. tan,
and makes the skin smooth white and
velvety. This lotion is made by dis.
solving four ounces OF spurmax In one,
half pint of hot water. then adding two
teaspoonfuls glycerine. This complex
ion beautifier does not rub off or show
like powder. and gives a more refined
appearance. 1t removes both shininess
and sallowness, rapidly giving the skin
a permanent healthy, youthful appear
ance.
An especially fine shampoo for this
weather can be had at trifling expense
by dissolving a teaspoonful Of canthrox
in a cup Of hot water. Pour slowly on
scalp and massage briskly. This creates
a soothing. cooling lather that dissolves
and removes all dandruff. excess oil and
dirt. Rinsing leaves the scalp spotlessly
clean. soft and plant. while the hair
takes on a glossy richness Of natural
color. also a f1uffiness which makes 1t
seem very much heavier than It is.
After canthrox shampoo. arranging
the hair a pleasure.-Advt.
