TOO MUCH MUSTARD
Bottle Washer and Pastry Cooks
Helper Fight at Restaurant.

Because the chief bottle washer
made a swipe at the pastry cook
helper with the bread knife and near
ly amputated an eyebrow, dinner was
a little behind hand at one of the up
town restaurants this noon. The vic
tim of the affray withdrew for repairs
to a local doctors office where a well
placed stitch or two did the work of
the eight or nine that would have
been required had the chief bottle
washer been nearer to the object of his
attack.
None of the guests suspected the
real reason for the slight delays in the
delivery of their orders from behind
the swinging doors which veil the
mysteries of the cuisine, and the
mattresses unjustly came in for most
of the blame. Order in the kitchen
was restored with no great delay and
there was evidently an intention of
settling the dispute out of court, for
no complaint was entered at the police
station at the time.

MURDER IS REVEALED.
Parish Priest Was Killed by His
Brother at Time of Earthquake.

Rome. March 26.-Recovery by the
police of famous art treasure stolen
from the parish church of Massa
d'Albe after it was destroyed by the
earthquake in January, has disclosed
also that the parish priest was muir
dered by his brother, according to adj
vices from Avezzano. When the ruins
of the church were explored, after the
disaster. it was found that a noted
Byzantine TTiptych executed in ivory
used as an altarpiece, as well as other
religious objects were missing. Their
value was fixed at a large sum.
The police now claim TO have learn
ed that when part of the church was
wrecked the priest was buried with
the art treasures in a section of the
building which remained standing be-
cause it's massive walls were a part
of an old fort built on solid rock.
The priest was slain. the authorities
assert. by his brother. who suspected
the ecclesiastic of being friendly with
his wife This man. it is asserted
found the clergyman lying helpless
under the ruins and killed him, with
the assistance of friends. who then re-
moved the art objects. An intercepted
letter led to the discovery of the crime
and all those suspected of being in
VOlVed have been arrested.

Another British Merchantmen Sunk
by German Submarine.

London, March 26.-Another Brit

bottom as result of German sub
marine warfare. The steamer Del

Infantry attacks were made by both

ORDER WRIGHT PLANES
Warning Nations Want American Air
ships With Stabilizcrs.

Dayton. o., March 26.-Orville
Wright's factory has received orders
for scores of war aeroplanes equipped
with the new Wright stabihzer, which
is designed to make the military planes
as safe to ride in as a street car.
According to experts representing
foreign countries which have placed
orders for the planes. the new ma
chimes will revolutionize aerial war
fare. The aviators will be able to
pay all of their attention to what is
going on on the earth beneath them
instead of keeping their attention CEN
tered upon the control of the ma
chimes.
Our stabilizer has been given the
needed finishing touches. said Wright
today We could have placed it on
the market before this if we were not

HIS LAKE IS LEAKING.
And John ID. Is Having Trouble on
ButtermiIlx Hill.

Tarrytown. n. Y, March 26.-John
d. Rockefeller not only has the most
money in the world, but he is now the
possessor of a disappearing lake. So
far he has spent 100000 on this
beautifying addition to the Buttermilk
hill section. Twice has the lake been
completed and the water turned on
and just as many times it has disap-
peared, leaving a sandy bottom bowl.
Mr.. Rockefeller gave the matter much
study but without result.
Now that he wants to put his mind
on something varying from his usual
trend, he is going to work on the lake
mystery even to the exclusion of his
favorite golf. He intends to build the
lake no matter what it costs and he
is on the job all day to see that it is
done.
Once before a Rockefeller lake dis
appeared and he intends that it shall
not occur again. The local witness
of Tarrytown has observed that this
may be a proof of the adage that
milk and water will not mix

business men had planned to have a
line of two or three hundred automo-
biles to accompany DR.. Sheldon from
his residence Sunday afternoon to the
auditorium where he will speak as a
member of the Flying Squadron of
America in the interests of national
prohibition, but in Difference to DR..
Sheldon'S wishes this plan was given
up. While DR.. Sheldon, who arrived
in Topeka today, appreciated the hon.
or which the business men wished to
do him. he did not care for that kind
of display.
The plan finally decided upon is
that Arthur Capper, governor of
Kansas who will preside at the
meeting Sunday; R. L. Cofran, mayor,
and the other city officials. will ac-
company DR.. Sheldon from the Ma
tional hotel to the auditorium Sunday
afternoon.
DR.. Sheldon expressed himself this
