to sufficiently nourish both body and

WILL SPARE AMERICANS.

Berlin, June 25.-There are good
prospects that the forthcoming Ger
mar note to the United States will
go a long way toward meeting the
American Governments wishes re-
garding Germany's conduct of sub
marine warfare and making passen-
ger traffic on the high seas safe.
While ii is stated that submarine
action against hostile merchantmen
will not and annor be abandoned
entirely, it is increasingly probable
that the German note will embody
some proposal TO exempt ships en-
rloyed wholly or principally in pas
eenger traffic from submarine at
lack. II is hoped here that such .
yolution will satisfy the requirement.

GOV. MAJOR DELIVERS
sTR|EIAG ADDRESS
-
In his Address at the Corner Stone
Laying the Governor of Missouri
Praises the State.


Major was profuse in sounding the
praises Of Missouri and Missourians
in his address at the Capitol corner
stone laying Thursday. Here are
some OF the rhetoricai heights to which
the governor mounted with firm
tread:
an the twilight Of young statehood
and throughout all the years of un-
eqrsaied growth, there have assembled
here Benton, Blair, cOckrell, Vest
Stone, Champ Clark and a long list
of other eminent soldiers and states
men, tne golden threads of whose
splendid lives are wove into the web
and woof of the state"
with the light Of a new epoch shin
ing in our faces and standing just
without the shadow Of the greatest Of
the worlds centuries, in the sunrise Of
the new, one with rs history written,
crowned with it brilliant achieve
ments, bedecked with it's martial and
civic heroesthe other with its battles
unfought and its fortunes untold, let
us lay this corner stone with trowel
and mortar, with plumb and square,
and erect upon it a capitol building
commensurate with the splendid his
tory Of the tate;commensurate with
the civil and martial glory of our illus
trious sons; commensurate with the
golden dreams of that advance guard
which wrote the constitution, slept
upon our forest paths and trackless
plains, and from whose couch sprang
Imperial Missouri, studded with her
splendid cities and graced with the
mightiest people Of the earth"
. =
ut will be a proud day when the
dome of this completed structure kiss
es the blue and bending skies; a proud
and glorious day for Missouri"
at will stand a tribute to the past
and a glorious herald to the future"
Every entrance into the common
wealth is through a gateway of OPP
portunity, such al men have never
known before"
"There is no state in all the land
with richer and more fertile fields or
where more golden opportunities
await the coming of those imbued
with the ~uccesse of life"
This state is a land of cities,
churches, schools, blue grass and
sparkling streams"
"Its great fields Of wheat have
written a record in letters Of gold"
"The land is vocal with the song Of
husbandry, and the army Of smoke
stacks kissing the skies bespeak a
great, prosperous and growing com
monwealth.n
"Let the United States lose Mis-
souri, and the nation would weep and
millions of its people &C hungry"
"The cause of the church will keeI
pace with the onward march and thu
cause of education will be one of oui
browning stars"
"Her star, however, is still in til
ascendency and has not reached tht
meridian height nor the zenith Of hel
glory"
"May it continue to stand in th'
forefront and may her lance evel
point to the field Of battle"
"To us in that other day came love
hope, ambition and the greatest civil
~ization of the past"

SUICIDE THEORY
GIVEN BY POLICE
Hunter Brooke's Body Found on Lot In
Which His Parents Are Buried
Was Member of Well Known Phil
adelphia Family

Philadelphia, April 90.-The body
of Hunter Brooke, Jr, AZ years old, a
wealthy resident of Garden City, l., l.,
and a member of a prominent Philadel-
phia family, was found to-day in a
cemetery at Media, Pa, near here,
with bullet wound in the mouth. The
body was found on the lot in which
Brooke s father and mother are buried.
The police believe he shot himself, but
they know of no motive.
Brooke was born in Media, and was
graduated from Swarthmore College.
About fifteen years ago he went to
Garden City and made his home with
his sister, Mrs. John Branden Austin.
He came to Media yesterday from Gar
den City and after eating dinner with
his aunt, went out to the cemetery.
The aunt refuses to say anything
whatever concerning the matter.
Brooke married Miss Elizabeth
Ball, of Philadelphia, last June.

RUNS COUNTER
TO CONSTITUTION
He Also Vetoes the Bill Setting Aside
Part of Liquor License Receipts
For Police Pension Funds in the
Larger Cities of the State

Among four bills vetoed by Gov
ernor Brumbaugh to-day vas that
authorizing railroad and other trans
portation companies to give reduced
rates of transportation to clergymen.
In vetoing the bill the Governor, who
himself has often occupied the pulpit
issued the following:
These ministers merit at the hands
of the people and of the Common
wealth the highest consideration, but
they must, like all other citizens, con-
form to constitutional and statutory
provisions. They have no legal status
other than that of citizens, however
high they should be esteemed by all
persons for their unselfish and holy
services.
"Section 2, Article II, of the CON
stitution clearly intends to prohibit
absolutely any undue or unreasonable
discrimination between individuals.
No special concessions to any one are
permissible. The act of May 81, 1907,
indicates clearly that this permission
is mandatory by making it a misde-
meanor even to attempt its violation.
However, the Supreme Court has
specifically held this class of people
does not fall within the category of
items in which reasonable discrimina-
tion is permissible. The mandatory

6. A. R. MEMORIAL DAY PLANS
E. B. Hoffman Chosen Chief Marshal
for the Parade

Il. B. Hoffman, commander of Post
No. 5S, g. A. R., was elected chief mar
shall of the Memorial Day parade, to
be held May 81, by the committee on
arrangements last night. The commit
tee also decided to hold the Memorial
Day services in the Derry Street United
Brethren church, the sermon to be
preached by the pastor, the Rev. j. A.
Lyter.
The services will be attended by the
veterans from the three posts of the
city, together with the Sons of veter-
ans, Spanish-American War Veterans
and Veterans of Foreign Service, who
will meet at the hall of Post 5S and
proceed to the church in body.
In making their reports it was found
through the subcommittee that there
is not enough markers on hand to sup
ply the grave of each deceased veteran.
Following this committee, consisting
of Thomas Numbers, Charles Beaver
and James Auter, was named to 90 be-
fore the County Commissioners and ask
for more markers.
j. George Becht, secretary of the
State Board of Education, was chosen to
deliver the address at the Harrisburg
cemetery.

If, as recommended by City Forester
Harry J. Mueller, the City Commission
ers decide to remove the 10000 or
more North Carolina poplar trees-also
known as seven-mile rooters-from
this, Father Harris town, statisticians
estimated to-day, it would only cost
somewhere between 100000 and
s16O,000. These expert mathematic-
ians expressed the opinion that the
work might be done for the whole
amount of the park loan, 500, 900, ap-
proved by the voters in 1918.
The proposition of removing the pop
lars, along with other forestry matters,
has been submitted to the City Com
missioners and next week they will be
asked to pass an ordinance giving the
Forester an appropriation to carry out
his work during the 1915 season. If
it is decided to remove all poplar trees,
the Commissioners will have to give
Mr.. Mueller as much as 100000.
However, some of the Commissioners,
when asked about it, squinted, squirmed,
blinked and then smiled. Then they
passed along the "tip' that "we will
not do anything like that"
1t is intimated, however, that the
Forester may get part if not all of his
first requisition of $4,000 for other
work he believes to be necessary.
How Far $500 Went
The members of the City Commi ssion
all are familiar with the fact that the
Forester began his knife and ak work
in Front street park, some FIVE or six
weeks ago, with force of eight men.
This already has cost the City $500
exactly $500 more than had been an
ticipated. AS one student of the for
estry situation remarked, to-day:
"The City fathers seem to have lost
sight of the fact that City Forester
can do nothing unless some funds are
put at his disposal"

denly awakened to the fact that the

ONE PROPERTY OWNER AT
'HARDSCRAbBLE' HEARING
Viewers Announce That Next Friday
VIII Be the Last Day on Which
Owners of Properties to Be Raced
May Submit Their Claims

Only one owner of property in
Hardscrabble submitted himself
this morning for examination before
the board of viewers who will deter
mine damages and benefits incident to
the razing of that section of the city
for the "openingN of Front street be-
tween Herr and Calder streets. Those
who have not yet been heard by the
viewers will have only one more op-
portunity to express their opinions as
to the values of their homes.
This will be at meeting to be held
by the viewers next Friday, at 10 a.
m. Following that, the viewers decid-
ed to-day, they will take up the ques-
tion of benefits, if any, resulting to
the property owners on the east side
of the street, through the proposed i'm
provements. The viewers also will hear
those owning property on the east side
who may want to testify and then will
conduct hearings at which the city
may present its side of the case deal
ing with present property values,
damages to be sustained and benefits
that may accrue.

who testified this morning. He esti-

late war news SUMMARY

A decisive victory over the allied
forces in the Dardanelles region is an
nounced by the Turkish war Office in an
official report from Constantinople to-
day. This statement, which is in direct
conflict with advices from London and
Paris, says that all the troops which
landed on the Asiatic and European
sides of the straits, with the exception
of the forces at Gaba Tepe, near the
tip of Gallipoli peninsula, have been
driven away, and that several warships
and transports of the allies have been
damaged.
Advices from French and British
sources give the impression, however,
that the landing forces are making
marked progress. From these dis
patches it would appear that the Brit
ish have established two lines across
the Gallipoh peninsula, which If main
tanned would cut off the Turkish forces
from Constantinople. An unofficial re-
port from Athens to Paris states that
