course, be confined to importations by
sea. but that would on the other hand
include indirect importations by way
of neutral ports. The German govern
ment would, therefore, be willing TO
make the declarations OF the nature
provided in the American note SO that
the use of the imported food and food
stuffs solely by the non complaint
population would be guaranteed. The
imperial government must. however,

MANY men are of many minds and

TLBERT HUBBARD, III one OF his lit.

of service or commodity. The only
man who should not advertise is
the man who has nothing to offer."

Charley Wooden returned on No. IL
today much to the regret of the
Cleveland printers, who did rushing
business while he was at the Y. NJ b.
A. national convention, printing cards
to be sprung on him. Although rep
resenting the smallest city in popua-
ton represented at the convention,
Charley made them sit up and take
notice and made such hot fight for
the next convention honors that New
Orleans and jackson, Mississippi, had
to combine forces and take the con-
vention between them, one having it
one day and then adjourn to the other.
1t was only in this way that they de-
vice president of the organization and
member of the board of control,
and was voted the best booster in the
convention. In spite of his modesty
his picture taken and displayed at all
the Cleveland moving picture shows
as a typical western booster. He made
several speeches and received a num-
Der Of valuable presents among which
was a loaf of German war bread, he
being the only member of the conven-
ton with sufficient jaw power to mas
ticate it. Charley insists that if he
had just had Beavers along to rest
him occasionally no one else would
have had any chance at the convention
at all. He says he came through di-
rect as the animal was too near ex-
haustion to permit Of watering or
feeding enroute. He will be fully
recovered and ready for the Yamba
minstrels rehearsal the latter part
of the week, however.

When Stanley Maxwell and bride
agreed to start their honeymoon trip
on the same train as their friends,
Glen Kirkpatrick and bride, they did
not figure on all the possibilities. A
crowd of the latter's friends had as
sembled at the depot to see the couple
off on No. IL not knowing the former
couple were on the train. Glen and
bride gave them the slip by taking an
auto to Las Animas. However when

Stanley the rice came in handy and
the couple got just as much as if it
had been arranged for them.

Sprinkling Third Street

The city officials did the right thing
in starting the city sprinkler to work
on Third street yesterday. That street
being the thoroughfare south and
having been plowed up this summer
has more dust even than Main street.
1t is almost as much Travelled as the
business street and the dust is very
deep. While the city funds will not
permit of sprinkling all over town
there certainly ought to be an excep-
ton made in favor Of such unusual
conditions as prevail on Third street

of the minister for foreign affairs, sent
a memorandum to the foreign powers
in which it announced its intention
not to remain without defense against
such processes. The following is the
text of this memorandum:
For a long time the French military
authorities have been taking note of
the processes employed by the German
troops in the combat against the
armies of the republic in violation of
all the engagements solemnly entered
into with all the other powers by the
German imperial government and in
contempt of all sentiments of hu-
manity'
The memorandum concluded with this
significant paragraph: No government
could. without compromising the Sc
curity of it's troops, remain without de-
fense against such refnements of bar
barousness. Consequently the govern
ment of the republic, actuated solely
by its military needs. intends to have
recourse to all the means which it will
deem suitable for placing German SOL
diers and the German military authori-
ties in the impossibility of committing
their crimes and murders"
