THE CALLA AND ITS CULTURE
BY BESSIE L. PUTNAM.

Rich soil, moisture, warmth, and
sunshine are the key notes to success
with the calla. 1t can-yes-must be
made to bloom in winter without much
sunshine If the other essentials are
supplied,
If wanted for winter blooming 1t Is
best to let it rest in summer, turning
the pot on its SIDE in some out Of the
way corner, Repot In September, fill
Ing in layer Of charcoal for drainage
and food
Over this put layer Of manure well
rotted, and finish with a rich compost
Water sparlngly until growth com
mences, and then the water can hardly
be supplied too freely
Always use warm water The roots
will enjoy 1t quite hot but this Is
death to the stem. Some place ring
OF tin around the base Of the stem
pressing It down an inch into the
soil. With this protection the hot
water can be freely used.
Bottom heat may also be suppneu
by placing the pot on hot brick, BY
keeping a pair Of bricks for this pur'
pose and alternating every l2 hours
the buds can be forced more freely
Give liquid manure once or twice a
week, gradually increasing the dose az
the plant seems to thrive.
Rout the red spider by spraying
with cold water, and the scale with
soapsuds,
When two leaves appear successive
ly from the same stalk, watch for a
bud next, Others will succeed It
through the winter II the treatment
outlined Is adhered TO- Bottom heat,

bic are the best Incentives to growth

ORDUNA INCIDENT
TAKEN Up IN NEW
NOTE, IS REPORT
Washington Hears Delayed Ex-
planation of Attack on
Liner Is on Way.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 1.-THE note
delivered to Ambassador Gerard by
the German foreign office yesterday
which was believed to he a supple-
mental communication on the sinking
of the Arabic, now is understood TO.
be q note on the unsuccessful at
tempt to torpedo the Cunarder
Orduna several weeks ago.
The note had not been received in
Washington early today and the
state department had no informa-
tion of its whereabouts. In circles
close TO the German embassy, how
ever il was said the note concerted
the Orduna and that when its con-
tents were known it probably would
be found that the German governs
ment claimed some sort of justitiea-
ton for the attack on the liner
The Orduna was chased and sheilcc
bv n submarine after a torpedo ha1
missed her stern by few yards or
.Tulv 9. she was on trip to the
United States and carried as passens
gers twenty-five Americans Ambas-
sador Gerard made some inquiries by
direction of Washington and the
German note now on its way IS uns
derstood to be the result.
What effect an attempt to Justify
the Orduna case would have on the
situation, already delicate by GeSs
many's stand on the Arabic, was the
subject Of wide speculation today
among officials who regarded the at
mosphere as far from favorable. The
note is being awaited with much lux
iety.

Investigated.

Six-year-old Vincent de Cosmo is
dead and his four-year- r-old brother
Joseph is in serious condition as a
result of drinking a quantity of
whiskey at the home of their parents,
rs Congress street, today.
The "whiskey' is said to have beer
left on the family table by Gabriel
De Cosmo, father of the children
After he left the house to go to work
the boys got hold of the bottle con-
tanning the liquid. The mother of the
children was in bed at the time She
found the children lying on the
floor.
DE Como bought a quart bottle of
eo-called whiskey last week. He went
10 work this morning, leaving most
OF the liquid untouched. His wife
went to bed again after breakfast.
The children had not gotten up.
Later she heard some one fall and ran
to the kitchen.
Heard Noise.
Mrs. De Cosmo, mother of the boys,
said that she awoke with aetart real
izing htat something had happened.
Upon reaching the kitchen she found
Vincent lying in a stupor on the floor
of the kitchen. All efforts failed to
arouse him. Joseph was standing up
and informed his mother that he
could not walk.
Il can't walk" he said. Vincent
drank whisky and so did me-"
Mrs. De Cosmo then became hyster-
ical. Her screams attracted neigh
bors.
DR.. W. M. Goodwin, of rs Congress
street, was Immediately sHnmomned,
but he pronounced Vincent as dead.
He used the stomach pump without
avail
William H. Mckenzie. county physi-
clan, has begun All inquiry into the
case. He will have the contents of
the whiskey bottle analyzed. 1t is
believed to be impure goods 1t was
estimated the two children drank half
a pint of the concoction.
DR.. Goodwin said that the four
year-old boy may recover. This is the
second case of its kind experienced
by the boy. Two years ago he drank
some carbolic acid, which nearly
caused his death.
Detectives Brex, Daily and Cheno-
weth Immediately went to the De-
Cosmo home to investigate the cir
cumstances surrounding the case.
DeCosmo informed Detective Brex
that he purchased the whiskey last
Saturday night from NJ. Sternberg,
S27 Fifteenth avenue. 1t was said to
be of the 50 a gallon variety. The
whiskey still remaining in the quart
bottle and in the jug was taken 10y
policemen.
The father of the children said he
and Tony Coppone, who is boarder
at the DeCosmo home, arose about 6
o clock to prepare breakfast. He took
the whiskey bottle from the shelf and
each put a little of the whiskey In
their coffee. DeCosmo told his wife
to go back to bed.
Mrs. DeCosrno said that after her
husband left the house she dozed off.
She did not know that the children
had gotten up until she heard sounds
from the kitchen. Upon entering the
room she found the older child Vim
cent lying in a helpless condition and
Joseph on the verge of prostration.

EXPECT AUSTRIAN
ANSWER TO j. S.
DUMBA REQUEST
Word from PenfieId May Come
MomentariIy-von Papen .
to Go?

WASHINGTON, Sept 11,-Austria-
Hungary's answer to Americas re-
quest for Ambassador Dumba's recall
was expected at the state depart
ment some time today.
Word from American Ambassador
Penfield. at Vienna, was awaited with
keen expectancy. Early fears that
Austria might object were largely dis
sipated. 1t was regarded certain that
the state departments demand would
be granted.
Official interest centered today,
however, In action against others In
volved In the Conspiracy" to cripple
American industries. State and JUS
tice departments dragnets were in
operation.
The conviction was growing that
Captain Won Papen. military attache
to the German embassy, would soon
leave the country.
He, Austrian Consular Agent Alex
ander Nuber, at New York; the editor
of a Hungarian newspaper, of New
York, and Captain James r.. j. Archi-
bald, Dumba's American messenger,
were the 'big four" openly involved
today. That the dragnet might in
volve other agents of foreign gov
ernments was strongly limited.
Upon excellent authority 1t was re-
ported today that German Ambassa-
dor Bernstorff will soon be told, If in
deed he has not already been formal
ly or informally advised, that Won
Papen's continued presence In the
country is Objectionable to this gov
ernment. 1t was believed Won Bern
storff would himself solve the prob
lem by dismissing Won Papen. 1t was
reported that the German military at
tache would be sent home on va
cation"
Steps toward criminal prosecution
of others involved in the strike con-
spiracy were also taken today. Fed
eral and New York State statutes
were being studied to determine
whether indictments would lie under
the general blanket" statute gov
erning conspiracy, the State law, or
for violating United States neutrality.
II was accepted as certain that, IL
possible, proceedings will be begun
against Archibald and the Hungarian
editor Criminal action against for
eign officials Is not contemplated.

GERMAN FORCES
LOSE HEAVILY IN
ARGONNE ATTACK
Crown Princes Attempt to
Pierce Line Apparently
Failure, Says Paris.
BY the Associated Press.


PARIS, Sept. II, p. m.-The vio-
lent fighting In the Argonne on
Wednesday and Thursday was the re-
suit of an effort of an army of the
German crown prince to break
through the French lines. The at
tempt was made with powerful artil-
lery and a large number of troops.
Apparently 1t had no appreciable re-
suit.
The Germans were able to penetrate
the French trenches on a portion of
the front, but were checked. They
renewed their attacks again and
again, but with such severe losses
that they gave up the effort
This offensive movement, it is said
on good authority, has not modified
the situation in the Argonne. In
making 1t the Germans have had
greater losses, according to the
French official figures, than they have
inflicted.
The army of the crown prince has
attempted several times in previous
months to break through the French
front, but so far has scored no def
mite success. The statement is made
here that this army has lost upwards
of 100000 men, one corps alone losing
40, 900 from the ranks, which are being
continually depleted and refitted.
Last night saw uninterrupted arttl-
lery fighting at several points along
the line in France, according to the
communication given out by the
French war Office today.
