Special Land Appraiser to

Expert Witness Is Denied
by Law.
ACREAGE DECREASES
Every Township Except
Franklin Shows Increase
in Assessment Per Acre on
Returns.

The board Of review will have to do
its reassessing in person and not
through a paid assessor, according to
County Assessor Mathews, who is pres
ident of the board. Members Of the
board fearing their work too heavy,
expected to employ a special land ap-
praiser to fix valuations and to act as
an expert witness on pay. President
Mathews said today he has learned
that this is not within the province
of the county board and the expendi-
lures will be limited to the salaries
of the members with incidental office
expenses.
Last night before closing the ses-
sion, Auditor Bowman. who is secre-
tary of the board, read a report he
has compiled on assessments of real
estate in every township and corpora
ton. The report shows a comparison
of the valuations this year with the
previous valuations. It's purpose is to
determine what sweeping changes
may have to be made in some town

FRENCH OFFENSIVE Nets
GAINS ON SECHT RIVER
PARK OWLS CHASE
HIM OFF GROUNDS
E. IRETON CLAIMS

Just what he ever did to incur
the displeasure of family of owls
who have taken up residence in
Glen Miller park is a mystery to
Ernest Ireton, local pressman,
but he admitted today that they
treated him in most highland
ed manner last night and almost
frightened him to death. He
also admits that they pursued
him out of the Glen. He resents
this for he believes, as a citizen
OF Richmond, he has as much
right to the use of the park as the
owls have.
Ireton states that last evening
while he was filling a pail with
water from spring near the
Main street entrance, he heard a
whirring noise close to his head.
Looking up he noticed that large
owl was lowering over him and
preparing for an attack. With
as much dignity as possible he be-
gan to retreat toward the park
entrance but this retreat was
converted into complete rout
when seven or eight other owls
took after him.
Il ran as fast as l could and
they kept swooping down on me,
pecking at me with their sharp
beaks," Ireton informed fellow
employees today. They did not
quit chasing me until I got out of
the park No more night visits to
the park for me until those owls
get away. That park isn't half big
enough for me and the owl fam
lily to occupy at the same time

The loss of life if any, in German
raids over Belfort and ST. Die was not

CAUSES .
WARS. OPINIONS BRYAN

WASHINGTON, June 17.-Wm. Jen.
nings Bryan's promised second install
ment of his "Causeless War" essay
was issued today. After denouncing
the strife raging in Europe, and de-
claring that all wars are waged for
selfish ends, he directs pointed shafts
at those who advocate preparedness as
the best insurance for peace. He also
praises President Wilson's efforts for
peace.
The statement follows:
THE conflict now raging in Europe
has been described as the 'causeless
war; but since no one would be bold
enough to lay the blame for such an
unholy situation upon an over-ruling
Providence it must find it's origin in
acts for which men and men alone are
responsible.
"It is not a race war; on the con-
trary the races are quite inexplicably
mixed. Latin joins with Saxon; the
Frank is the ally of the Slav; while in
the opposing ranks, TeutOn and Turk
fight side by side.
Not Religious War.
Neither is it a religious war. On
the Bosphorus the Cross and the Cres-
cent make common cause, Protestant
Kaiser, and Catholic Emperor have
linked their fortunes and hurl their
veteran legions against an army in
which are Unfortunately mingled

GERARD FILES REPORT
American Ambassador in
Berlin Says Reception of
Presidents Second Mes
sage Was Quite Friendly.

WASHINGTON, June 17.-With ad
vices indicating there will be no re-
ply by Germany to this governments
demand for freedom of the sea for at
least two weeks, the international
situation today was one of calm and
hopeful waiting so far as the admins
tration was concerned.
Ambassador Gerard's report that
the the reception given the presi-
dents second note in Berlin was
friendly and courteous strengthens
the belief in high quarters here that
satisfactory adjustment ultimately
is to be had Of the difficulties of the
two nations. In fact, the optimism
of those in official life is increasing
rather than diminishing, and, from
the American viewpoint, the entire
situation is regarded as much more
satisfactory than since diplomatic
negotiations about Germanys subma.

Nor yet is it rivalry between fam
lilies. The leading actors in this un
precedented tragedy are related by
blood but kinship seems to be a neg
lected factor-it explains friendship
or enmities. No race, religion and fam
lily, each with many wars to answer
for, can plead not guilty in the present
tragedy.
Each ruler declared that he did not
want war. But there is even better
proof, aye indisputable proof that no
sufficient cause existed, viz: the con.

Would not these rulers have bus
led themselves trying to save their
subjects by the eradication of the
cause, had they known of the existence
of such cause?

Smash Encourages Man to

Foster Webster, colored, through
the possession of reinforced dome
has escaped not only confinement IN

ragged Justice Webster was also the
cause of another man, Harry McGuth-
erie, colored, not being arraigned in
city court today.
McGutherie was creating disturb
ance in the Schell saloon in the north
side yesterday afternoon. When this
was reported to police headquarters
Officer Vogelsong got into the police
automobile and drove to the scene of
the trouble. AS he was taking NC
Guthrie into custody Webster ad-
dressed some very offensive remarks
to the officer, who attempted to seize
him after he had showed McGutherie
into the machine.
Head Too Thick.
Webster side-stepped and Nogelsong
hit him in the head with his mace
with sufficient force to fell any man
possessed of an ordinary skull. The
blow never dazed Webster and he
struck at Vogelsong, grazing the Of
ficer's face. . If it had landed squarely
it would have been knockout. AS
Vogelsong aimed another mace blow
at Webster the latter took to his heels.
After running a short distance Web
ster picked up rock and hurled it at
Vogelsong, but it whistled past his
head, breaking a board in fence.
Vogelsong then drew his revolver
and Webster proceeded for parts un-
known at top speed.
The enemy having been routed, Vo.
gelsOng returned to the machine, to
discover that McGutherie was also
numbered among the missing
Webster's mother early this morn.

would appear at the city building for

had failed to put in an appearance.
McGutherie was also in seclusion at
that hour.
