Renewal of Submarine Warfare
Worries U. S., But 0utimism|
Is Felt Here.

AMBASSADOR Won Bernstorf will
make another visit to Washington in
a week or so. Secretary Lansing will
be back by that time. While the pur-
pose OF the conference Is not announc-
ed, it Is assumed that it will be with
reference to the Arabic case and sub
marine warfare.
Renewal Of German submarine activ-
ity in the war zone keeps officials here
anxious lest something cause a new
crisis. The fact that In attacking the
British transport. the Anglo-Columbian
yesterday. the commander of sub
marine lived up to the letter OF in
ternational law has caused optimism
here. however.
It is about time for Berlin to advise
this Government what conclusion IT
has come to with respect to the at
tack on the Arabic.
Although the case OF Ambassador
Dumba is still mysteriously hanging
fire, and no final action has yet been
taken as to Captain Won Papen or Con-
sui General Won Perekid. 1t is believed
these matters will be disposed OF with

Kilkenny a Great Play.

Local theatre-goers will be glad to
hear of the coming advent at the
Grand, Thursday, Oct. %, of the
young Irish actorsinger, Fiske o.
Hara in his latest success 'Kilken-
nv" from the pen of Augustus Pitou,
SIR. One of the chief beauties of the
plays from this master of Irish ro-
mantle drama, is the fact that there
is never a faint of anything unclean
or suggestive. 1t is equally true
that an Irish play stands for every
thing that is fresh and fragrant and
sweet. Among the delightful new
songs which Mr.. O'Hara will render
are: That's What An Irish Means ,
Contrary Mary Clary," ireland is
Ireland to Me-" Dear Mother Mine, =
and Girl of My Heart"
Mr. O'Hara carries with him a
supporting company of unusual ex-
cellence among whom are: Mabel
Juline Scott, Marie Quinn, Mary
Downs, Anna Nichols, Lisle Blood
good, Eliza Mason, w. T. Morgan,
j. p. Sullivan, James Edwards, Hen

eossIAN CAR TURNS TURTLE.
Six Young People Laid I'm lFie1a Some
Fifteen Feet From Public
HIGHWAY.

We take the following 'frsm the
West Union Union regarding an au-
tomobile accident which involved Os-
sian people:
The worst automobile accident
tiIst has happened near here oc-
cured Sunday afternoon cat 1he cor
rner just this side of the Fred Blunt
home on the Clermont road. The
car was the pr0peIIy of lJGhn NC
Manus, of Ossian, a new T9I5 4 Stu
aeisaker. Mr.. McNIfnus WIS absent
from home, on a business "trip to
North Dakota Sunday, his sons, Ey-
|erett and Jasper, drove over to Cler-
men for a visit at the iKpeeland
home, and in the afternoon the boys
lin company with dS1eir cousins,
Mamie, Grace and Irene Kneeland
land Francis Koran, came over to
West Union for q drive, and ON the
sway home the accident occurred. Miss
Irene -Kneeland was driving the car,
49,
bit being her first attempt. The car
WIS going at pretty rapid rate, and
as they peared the corner EveReft
told her to shut off the gas, and in
doing so she turned the throttle wide
open, and consequently more speed.
At the corner the car was going too
fast to make the turn and seeing
they We're to meet another car near
the corner also added to the eoafyl-
sion. The result was the car left
the road, hitting the grass on slight
embankment, skidSed slightly, when
the two rigst wheels gave way un-
der the strain and over went the
car and occupants, the car rolling OF
the highway and into ti1e field some
fifteen feet away. Everett McManus
was caught under the windshield and
steering wheel, and only timely as
sistance saved his life, Irene Knee
land was caught by the fender and
SuG WdS quite pduiy bpjuiOu'
1t was thought that Everett was
50 badly injured he would never
gain consciousness, but at 900 o.
clock he began to show some life,
and at 1900 he had regained his
faculties enough TO know where he
was and the first thing he asked
was "how about the car" The young
man was badly bruised on the breast
and a bad wound was cut in his head
requiring several stitches. His right
arm is badly wrenched, but the doc
tor thinks this will be all right in a
short time 1t is miraculous, for
big car, with six occupants, to smash
off two wheels, roll over into a
field-and not a bone broken, but
Timely assistance saved the life OF
Everett McManus. Had there been
no one there at the time to remove
the car the boy would have been
dead in few seconds, as the car had
his wind shut off.

SUES HER MOTHER-lS-LAW.
Wife Alleges Husbands Property
Was Misrepresented In Ad.

in the petit jury in the district count
at this city opened yesterday after
noon when arguments in the Case ,of
Helen Beach VS.. Ross Beach were
started by the attorneys, represent
ing the opposing sides.
The case is probably one of the
most interesting of the session and
embodies features of unusual inter
est. 1t has been heard in the SUI
preme court and is now in the dis
trict court through "a reversal by a
higher court of the jury verdict in
favor of the plaintiff. The litiga-
ton started in 1910 and ON June,
1913 was acted upon by the supreme
court.
The case is one in which a wife is
suing her mothe-in-law alleging
that the latter misrepresented her
husband TO her.
1t develops according to the petit
ton that Rosa Beach, who resides
near Denmark, this county, some
years ago advertised in a German
newspaper for a wife for her sen.
In the advertisement, it is alleged
| it was stated that the young man pos
sessed debtless farm Of eighty acres
in his own right. The p.aintiff an
severed the advertisement and began
to correspond with the young man.
AS the young man was unable to
write, the mother wrote his letter.

ture spouse.
1T is further stated that the young
woman married the man and then
found that he did not possess the
land but instead that it vas the rop-
erty OF his mother. She now is su-
ing to gain one-third interest in the
land which she states is due her,

A Rhode Island Red Makes Record.
Rhode Island Red hen No. 395, N
Pen 40, owned by S. G. McL9i1'
South Glastonbury, Connecticut, per-
formed a most extraordinary feat
during a recent week at the Storr,
Connecticut, contest. The records
of the laying contest seem to indi-
cate that on an average one may
expect to get two eggs day from q
hen once for about each 10000 eggs
collected. Furthermore, when thus
sort of thing happens, it has been be-
lieved for the most part that tie
hen always laid one OF the eggs very
early in the morning, and the other
along towards evening. The Rhode
Island Red in question, however. W.
plated all presidents by laying the
two eggs, both of marketable size
with practically no intermisslon.
Not only this, but the trick was turn
ed while an attendant was in the
pen and an eyewitness to the most
unusual performance.
