London Reports that Thousands of Young Men are Leaving Coun-
 try Fearing to be Drafted.

LONDON, Oct. 26.~The fear that conscription will be forced upon Great Britain in order to raise the big army which Lord Kitchener is de- manding for the spring campaign, is causing thousands of young men to leave England daily. Every steamer leaving English ports since the con- scription compromise measure has been taken under consideration by the members of the British cabinet, has been crowded to the capacity of their accommodation.
 It is also reported that thousands of young Englishmen have crossed to Norway and Sweden to escape be- ing forced into the army, and that later they will go to the United States.
 Lord Kitchener again repeated his statement in the House of Common ! yesterday that Britain must have men and money. He declared that Britain held success in the war in the hollow of her hand, but that she must raise the armies and provide the money or all would be lost. ......

ID RACE FOR HOMES
 IN IMPERIAL! i! VALLEY i.
Hundreds of Citizens are Camped on the Ground but Agent States all
 Will be Given Chance.

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 26.-Hun- |dreds of men are camped day and night on a tract of ground in the I'm perial valley, which is soon to be re- stored to entry by the land office. The tract consists of seven thousand acres which was withdrawn during the building of the great irrigation ditch and is considered the finest land in the state.
 The agents of the land office have posted notices that priority by squat |ting on the land will not afford any advantage as the tract will be clear ed, even if it is necessary to secure the militia, before the land is thrown open. Many of the squatters are de- termined to hold their land and it is feared that bloodshed will result from the great rush as the number ot contestants in the race is constantly increasing.

NEW YORK, Oct. 26.-Robert Fay, who was arrested yesterday with Walter Schulz, charged with attempt ing to dynamite intuition factories in the United States which have been supplying shells to the Allies, has been identified as Lieut.. Robert Fay, of a Saxon regiment in the German army.
 Since his Identification Lieut.. Fay has talked freely to the detectives, and is reported to have admitted that his action in attempting the destruc- tion of the intuition factories, has the sanction of the German govern ment. He also admitted that he planned to place clockwork bombs on the rudders of steamers carrying mu- nitions to the Allies before the ves- sells left New York, by employing a diver.
 Lieut.. Fay arrived from Europe last April ana is reported to have been kept under surveillance by Brit ish agents since coming to America. A search of his rooms has disclosed the fact that he has been experiment. ing with explosives which are un- known to American scientists and which are .~.leved to be new Ger man invention. The statements of Lieut.. Fay that the German government sanctioned his plans for placing bombs on the rudders of the steamers to be explod- ed when the vessel was far out to sea- has created sensation and many inti- German sympathizers believe that the German government had something of the sort in view when they abol- ished the submarine warfare.

and digging Of the scalp will stop. and

dred times better. You can get liquid
arvon at any drug store. 1t Is mex
pensive and four ounces is all you will
need, no matter how much dandrun
