CHILDREN'S HOUR
AT LIBRARY TODAY
Mrs. Chester Flournoy and Mrs. W.

Little Folk.

Mrs. Chester Flournoy will tell the
stories to the younger children and
Mrs. w. o.. Taggart will entertain
the. older children, at the regular
weekly story hour at the library this
afternoon between and > o'clock.
Despite the fact that many OF the
children are out of the city, and that
the warm weather is keeping others
away, the attendance at the story
hour each Saturday is large, there
being seldom any vacant chairs and
often it being necessary for a number
of the children to find impromptu
seats.
More than ordinary interest at
taches to the story hour this after
noon, because this is the closing day
of the story hour contest. All let
tiers for the contest must be handed
the librarian not later than 6 O'Clock
this evening, and it is expected there
will be number of such letters re-
ceived today. The announcement OF
the winners in the contest will net
be made until Chautauqua week, in
September.

Note TO BRITAIN
Will BE Sent ON
NEXT WEDNESDAY

Washington, Aug. 13.-The answer
of the United States to the notes of
Great Britain, in which she urged a
justification of her treatment ! of
commerce of neutrals, will be sent
to Sir Edward Gray on Wednesday.
Sir Cecil Spring-Rice. the British
ambassador, who is now at Beverly,
Mass, is expected at the state de-
partment on Tuesday morning. 1t
is understood he has been sent for
by the state department. 1t has been
arranged by the department that an
scent of the secret service shall ac-
company him from Beverly to Wash
ington.
The American reply has been con-
siderably changed and condensed
since the receipt by the state depart
ment of the supplementary note OF
Great Britain. in which she main
.ained the legality of the blockade
and set forth substantially that the
United States was actually the bene-
ticiary of that blockade. The prlncl-
pal note dealt among other things
with a suggestion of arbitration. This,
however. was to be available only
after the United States had submit
ted to Great Britain's positive claim
that all seizures and detentlons
should be regarded first and essen
TALLY as questions for the British
prize court.
Great Dritain's suggestion was that
after submission to adjudication by.
the British courts, American citizens
appeal to the privy council of Great
Britain or some International trlbun-
al. if the owners of the cargoes al
legged that there had been a denial
of JUSTICE" The United States will
reject the proposition of arbitration.
