DESPISED AS HE
SANK LUSITANIA
U-Boat Commander Had To Bear Hi:
Comrades Contemplated To
avoid Sight.

NJ. Gustave Nerves Paris paper, La
Guerre Sociale, publishes the following
remarkable story of the sinking OF the
Lusitania in the form of telegram from
Milan. The writer is said to be a Ger
man Socialist, and the letter from which
it was taken would appear to have been
communicated by an American propa-
gandist TO journalist representing
American and Italian newspapers. The
story says;
"The order to sink the Lusitania ar
rived on May at Heligoland, and
aroused the Indignation of all the Off
GERS. More than one was beside him
self. The order was nevertheless car
ried out by the U-2l, which left under
the command of Lieut.. Hersing.
"The writer Of the letter was on board
his ship when Hersing returned from his
expedition, and was able TO take note of
the contempt which all the officers mani
tested toward him. Without daring 10

TEN CALVES ADDED
TO u. S. BISON HERD
Buffalo on Wichita National Forest
Now Number Sixty-Two and
Promise to Continue
Increasing.

The governments herd of buffalo on
the Wichita national forest, in Okla
homa, which is also federal game pre-
serve, has been increased by the arrival
of ten calves, according to report re-
ceived by the forest service from the
supervisor in charge. The herd, which
now comprises sixty-two specimens OF
the almost extinct bison, is in good con-
dition, says the supervisor, and promises
to continue increasing at rapid rate.
Eight of the calves are females, bring
ing the number of heifers and cows up
to thirty. The balls number thirty-two
and have been placed by themselves in
a pasture which has just been fenced
in for them.
Three years ago the buffalo herd on
the Wichita forest was little more than
half as large as il is now. II is said
that the other game animals in the pre-
serve, including elk and antelope, also
are increasing due TO the protection af-
forded. not only against hunters, but
against wolves, wild eats, and other pre-
datory animals, which committed seri-
GUS depredations from the establishment
Of the preserve in 1905 until measures
we're taken 10 stop them. In protect
ing the game from predatory animals
the wardens and forest officers are al
so promoting the interests Of local
stockmen, who Craze several thousand
head Of cattle on certain allotted areas
within the preserve.

Hints for Summer Guests.

Be thoughtful of the older people in
the house.
Do not give the maids extra work to
do
Keep your room in order.
BE punctual to meals-all this helps TO
make the domestic wheels 60 smoothly.
Don't linger so long over your morning
toilet in the bathroom that no one else
has a chance for anything more than a
hasty wash.
Go to bed and get up in good time.
The girl who borrows outwears her
welcome.
Don't DE afraid TO express an opinion
when asked: it dampens the enthusiasm
of the party always to say, Il don't care
what you do"
Twining the feet around the rungs of
the chair is a bad habit and is apt to
leave your mark behind you; better
write your name in the guest book; II Is
just as indelible and is pleasanter SOU
venir of your visit.
Enter into the spirit of the hostess.
Be sure TO arrive on the train she has
planned for you.
Do what is arranged for you willingly.
Come prepared TO have a good time.

To make dainty eustards is an art well
worth learning, saws the Christian Sci

at this season than in the winter, when

Crocheted cuff links for wash waists

economical.
To make linen centers for crocheted
doilies, mark the linen with a pencil, us

Then stitch on the sewing machine two
or three times, following the pencil line
and placing the stitchings one over the

edge about one-sixteenth of an inch wide.

work the crochet, and does away with the

ducers of copper In central Arizona,

ing several hundred men out OF work.
A heavy influx Of water causing the
drowning OF the pumps, was respon-
sible, It is anno6need.
General manager Beckett character
lied as unfounded a rumor that an
underground lake had been tapped
THE fact is he sadi, that tho
Old Dominion lies In a basin which
drains the entire district. As q re-
suit of the heavy rains Of the past
few weeks the seepage caused q dow
of water on the nth level which was
too great for the L jumps to Ia sdls
"As q result OF this low We had to
drown our pumps on the 18th and 18th
levels, but we hope that with fair
weather the seepage will so decrease
that our pumps can catch up with the
water"
Mr.. Beckett said there was no fear
of caveins, since the Old Dominion
has no loose ground. He said the
mine is we'll timbered throughout. The
pumps usually handle about $500. 900
gallons a day.
