CABINET MEETS.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 16.-PreSt
Wilson and his cabinet today took up
the situation growing out of the
charges of wholesale plots to destroy
munitiOn factories and ships carrying
supplies to the allies. Atty. Gen.
Gregory gave a complete outline of
what had been accomplished by the
agents Of the department of justice.
He explained that very few Of the
cases unearthed so far can be prose-
cuted in the federal courts Most Of
the offenses have to be prosecuted
through the state courts. He said this
hampered his department consider
ably. No information could be obtain
ed as to what decision the cabinet
reached. 1t is believed, however, that
Gregory stated that his agents are
continuing their efforts to rouno
the real leaders IN the plots.
The presidents message was also
discussed. All department heads made
reports as TO the recommendations
they want made.
1t was learned on reliable authority
that the Ancona case was not discuss
ed. Sec'y Lansing simply reported
that as yet this government is without
reliable information as to the facts of
the sinking-whether it tried TO es-
cape and whether sufficient warning
was given TO allow the passengers to
get away safely-and the matter was
allowed to go over.
Sec'y Of Commerce Redfeld made
his semi-weekly denial of the report
that he is to resign. He called at the
white house early to confer with the
president regarding legislation giving
federal aid to industrial and agrfcul.
tural education. His early call re-
vived the rumor that he intended leav-
ing the cabinet.

FRESHMEN FORCED
To HELP ENGLAND
Bishop of Limerick Attacks
British For Treatment of
Emerald Isle Citizens.

DUBLIN, Ireland. Nov ia brist-
ment for forcing Irishmen to fight
for her" is made by the Very Rev.
Edward Thomas. Roman Catholic
bishop Of Limerick, in a letter to the
Munster News and other Irish news
papers.
The treatment of poor Irish emil
grant lads at Liverpool is enough to
make any Irishman's blood boil, y
whites Bishop Thomas. What wrong
have they done that they should de-
serve insults and outrage at the hands
of a brutal English mob?
They do not want 10 be forced into
the English army and sent to fight
England's battles in some distant part
of the world. They are supposed to
be free men but they are made to feel
they are prisoners who may be COM
PEELED to lay down their lives for a
cause that is not worth three rows Of
pins to them.
The door Connaught peasants know
little or nothing of the meaning of
this war and much prefer TO be al
lowe to till their own potato gardens
in peace.
1T seems cruel and wrong to at
tack them because they cannot rise TO
the level Of disinterested imperialism
such as that OF t. 2. O'Connor and
others.
This war may be just-or ii may
be unjust. Any fair-minded man will
admit that it is England's war and
not Ireland's. Yet poor fellows who
do not see the advantage Of dying for
such a cause are TO be insulted as
'shirl1ers and cowards.' If there is to
be CONSUMPTION let it be forced all
around. but it seems to be intensely
unjust to leave English shirkers by the
millions go free and then coerce a
small remnant of the Irish race into
a war which they do not understand"

LONDON, Nov. 16.-German troops
are reported to have arrived in south
ern Serbia by way of the Sofia Kus-
tendil railway to reinforce the hard
pressed Bulgarians around Neles,
(Koprulu) and on the Tcherna river
front.
Although they have battIed CALAMITY
to open up the road to MOnastir. the
BulgarS have been checked at every
turn by the Anglo-French troops and
the Serbians.
Particularly vicious fighting is in
progress near Veles, near TetovO and
west Of the Vardar river. The little
mountain town Of Tetovo has changed
hands five times 1t is now in the
possession of the Serbs and the Bull
garians' hold on Uskub is seriously
menaceed
In northern Serbia. although the
AustrO- German statements made no
claims of territorial gains, the leu
tonic forces have not yet suffered a
single serious reverse.
With reinforcements in the south
the Bulgars may be able to renew their
successful Offensive against the allies
and the Serbs. That such a thought
has occurred to the French and Brit
ish general stats is shown by the
news from Athens that the allies are
striving to reach an agreement as to
the status of the Anglo-French SOL
diers in the event they are forced over
the border. England and France want
something more than mere promises
that Greece will not disarm and in
tern the Anglo-French soldiers if they
are compelled to retreat back into
Greece from southern Serbia

ATHENS, Nov. 16. - Former
Premier Elutherios Nenizelos has
abandoned his efforts TO force Greece
into the war on the side OF the allies.
He made this plain today when he an
n0unced that his followers (the liberal
party probably would not take part

hopes OF the allies and shows the
strength of King Constantine and his
supporters

factureTs called upon the former pre-
mier TO assure him that the capitals
tic and commercial interests OF Greece
are faithful 10 him. The delegation
asked Mr. Nenizelos not TO give up his
struggle against the policies of king
Constantine and TO take an active part
in the election. To this the eX-premier
replied:
Il am not sure that the liberal
party VIII put candidates in the field
Even if we are in the majority to tDe
chamber OF deputies it is doubtful IN
we could carry out our program"
The government has decided 10
place Serbians on a similar footing
with the allies in the event Of "a gen
eral retreat of Serb and Anglo-French
soldiers into Greece from Serbia. This
evidently means that Greece is determ-
med to pay no attention TO her treaty
Of alliance with Serbia.
GENEVA, Nov. IS. - That Lord
Kitchener, the British secretary of
state for war was the bearer OF a yer
bal uitimatum 10 King Constantine OF
Greece is the belief strongly held i'm
semi-official circles.
The attitude Of Greece is arousing
more anxiety in London and Paris
than at any time yet. The allies will
not be satisfied until Greece definitely
casts her lot with them and they will
continue 10 fear here until that comes
about
The chief cause for apprehension is
that Greece might enter the war on
the side OF Germany if the present
allied army in the Balkans is defeated
and prevent the landing Of reinforce

MAKING Linen Wear.

Linen will wear much longer if it
need not be used constantly. For in
stance, if half dozen tablecloths are
laid away in the linen closet the whole
set should be in use, not two. three or
whatever number is needed each week.
In this way each cloth is not Numbered
nearly as often as If three We're in con-
slant use and three stored away. The
result will be that the six will last
much longer used in this way than If
several were kept in reserve.
After the cloths have lost all useful
ness as table coverings they can be cut
up into napkins. hemmed and given a
new lease on life. Linen should never
be thrown away. as there is always
some excellent use awaiting it, either
as bandages, cloths for the ironing
board. dust rags or thousand and one

Every day the old lady visited the
camp, and every day the adjutant and
surgeon either told her more lies or re-
peated the old ones. The ship bearing
her son never; came to Montauk point,
and when the last. tent was struck she

The winter passed and no one had

AN EASTER BREAKFAST.
Clever Housewife Can Prepare Novel
Morning Meal

Morning Meal.
A charming Easter breakfast may
be given by housewife who is clever,
and it will he most economical and
satisfying entertainment. The table
should be round or oval, the cloth Of
highly finished satin damask and the
flowers all white or yellow. Hyacinths
and lilies, the Easter flowers par ex-
cellence, are not suitable because Of
their heavenly scent, which renders
them unavailable for table use. The
long stemmed golden jonquils or the
yellow hearted Chinese lilies, which
are like clustered stars on their slender
stems, are the favorites.
One dainty fashion consists Of low
silver fern dish in the middle Of the
table on white centerpiece embroid-
cred in star shaped flowers, with white
silk embroidery. At each corner Of
this is set lily shaped glass holding a
bunch Of narcissus blossoms. Aspara-
gus vine is trailed from the fern dish
to each vase, where it is caught with
a tiny knot of white ribbon edged with
gold. At each plate 4 pure white egg
shell is placed holding few Of the
narcissus Blossoms, whose STEMS have
been shortened, and if the hostess de-
sires they may be tied with white rib
bon and hold a little Easter favor.
Ten is the approved number of guests
for the Easter breakfast.

How W. Borrow From tho Military,


Very mixed are some Of the military
fashions just now. Woman seizes upon
a regimental style because It is pic
tutesque and becoming and it troubles
her not at all that German, Russian,
English and American military en-
blems are jumbled in hopeless confu-
sion In her spring attire j.. -.
From the French officers coat is Dor
rowed the choker collar: the black
braid that trims it suggests West
Point. Dangling tassels on the coat
are truly Prussian in suggestion and
because the Cossack style of millinery
is particularly fetching on femininity
1t has been adopted as the popular
type of headgear and is carried out
In Belgian blue, Hessian green or
Frenchified black and white. with a
fine disregard for consistency
Even the boot is military and milady
actually wears brass buttons on her
fOootgear-sh shining brass buttons with
the American eagle thereon, to add a
touch Of American patriotism to her
foreign military decorations.

WHY SNOW HEATS THE HANDS
The Brain Calls to the Blood to Help
the Chilled Skin

tho Chilled Skin,
1t is very wonderful that our hands
should become warm after playing
with snow, for it must be perfectly
certain that the cold snow takes heat
away very quickly from our warm
hands.
The warmth Of our hands is derived
entirely from the blood, except at times
when something hot is actually shining
upon them. Therefore. for some rea-
so or other, a very much larger amount
of blood than usual must be flowing
through our hands. The blood is no
warmer in itself, or the whole of the
body would at once notice it. but what
really happens is that the hands ar.
getting richer and quicker supply of +
The effect is just the same, really ADJ
the delightful glow that we feel afteN
a cold bath: The brain has the dutyy
of taking care of the skin, as of every
other part Of the body. Now, when
the skin has been chilled its life has
been heavily taxed, and it will suffer-
unless it is compensated. So the brain
orders the small blood vessels in the
skin, wherever it has been chilled, to
relax and widen so that the warm
blood is able to circulate quickly
through them.-tThe Child's Book of
knowledge" -
