significance q the CHICAGO Vote.

The tremendous vote for the winning candl-
date for mayor In Chicago must have deeper
meaning than It's local application. Chicago has
been for many years a democratic stronghold.
and its vote has had much influence in deter
mining the result in Illinois on state and ma
tional elections In the recent primary election
swetser was named by thesdemocrats in prefer
ence to Carter Harrison by majority of over
$4,000. which is proof Of his strength with his
own party He went into the campaign with this
prestige and energies defeated by record vote.
Tho personal difference between sweitser and
Thompson is not enough to fully account for the
$4,000 plurality the later received. It must be
that party atfiiiatIon had something to do with
the result, and that the people are actually turn
ing away from the democratic party and its
record OF disaster. The vote in Chicago and
other cities where party lines we're drawn is
good sign for the campaign OF 1915. and pre-
sages republican triumph.

One Way to Save the Taxpayers Money.

Kline do the jail feeding and save the taxpay

CommerciaI High schools.

OMAHA, April ITO the Editor of The

CARING FOR THE UNKNOWN
Patriotic Work Undertaken by Ger.
 man Women That Is of Real Serv- .. ice to the Fatherland.

A correspondent of the Companion in Germany writes of touching thing that the lonely women of the nation have done-women who have no sons, no husband. no brother, no father in the war; who are perhaps too old or too feeble to nurse or to be otherwise active. No one knows where the idea started, but some women of that sort made inquiries of the regiments re- garding soldiers who had no father or mother; they begged to be put in communication with those soldiers
 The names of soldiers were sent to these women, this strange name and that, the names of men whom they did not know and had never seen! Each woman chose one or two sol diers to be her especial care. The childless mothers sent gifts, and sewed and knit for the motherless sol diers. Now and then came, in return, a grateful post card from the field from the adopted son. Once I read one of the cards.
 flor the package of warm things. Imagine my surprise! The mail ar rived! I expected nothing, but I was the only one to receive a package I alone, the orphan! From you I re- ceived the only package ever got in my life!"
 Eight days later the orphan soldier boy fell: comrade brought the news, and gentle, lonely soul wept for him, whom she had never known. He had been the means of forming a strong tie that bound in imagination a wom- ans silent life with the mighty fate of her country. She who had never been mother had become a volun- teer mother.-Youth's Companion.

TOOK SPLINTER FROM HEART
Extraordinary Operation That French Surgeons Are Reported to Have
 Successfully Carried Out.


 An operation unique in the annals of surgery, the extraction of a. frag- ment of hand-grenade from the heart, was described recently at the Paris Academy of Medicine by Professor Armaingaud of Bordeaux.
 The patient, young Parisian ser geant of rather delicate constitution, who was present at the session, was wounded at St. Hubert, in the Ar gonne, on October 1. A splinter one half inch square and one-eighth inch thick lodged in the heart, where it remained four and half months. On February IT Dr. Maurice Beaussenat, chief of the ambulance in the Rue Jacques Dulud, Neuilly, undertook to extract it.
 Once the heart was laid open the difficulties began. The fragment was very awkward to catch, and slipped from the forceps several times before it could be extracted, but the heart continued to beat all the time AL though complications :, were ?, feared. everything went we'll, and the, ser geant could be considered cured a month after. Members of the acad- emy were able to see for themselves that the heart was now acting nor mally, and that a cure had been es- tablished beyond all doubt.

sovereIsns and Their Fortunes.

Economy is advised, even among cabinet. ministers and law officers, who are asked to diminish their de- mands on the public purse. But what of the monarchs and their income? We have heard something of the dim mutton of the kaiser's private for tune owing to the war. But even with his fifty royal residences and interests in all manner of businesses, he has never been the richest monarch in the world. That honor has always be- longed to the czar, who on his access sion came into the Romanoff private estate, yielding about two millions 8 year. Beyond that his salary" amounted to another two millions, be- sides many profitable investments abroad. There. were small expenses to be deducted, such as some a5OO,- 900 a year to grand dukes and duchesses. But when everything had been taken into account, the czar re- mained the richest monarch in the world, far ahead of the Turkish sul- tan, with his million and half, or our own king, who is the poorest in pelf and palaces of all the Old World po- tentates.-Westminster Gazette.

Submarine Attack.

Submarines are not afraid to at tack hostile warship from favor able position, but owing to their very small power of resistance to gun fire, and that their only offensive weapon against warships Is the torpedo, the guns they carry being of such small caliber as to be of no avail against a vessel protected in any way, they can not attack them boldly on the surface of the water. Hence they are obliged to maneuver until they reach a posi- tion whence they can effectively dis charge a torpedo, and at this time are necessarily submerged.
 The periscope is one thing that in- dicates the position of a submarine; another, when completely submerged, is the line she makes which is visible on the surface ot the water.

LubIin an Old City,

Lublin, now in the occupation of the Austro-German forces, may escape something of the fate which came in an earlier day, for it was once plum dered by the Mongols. It is a very old city-its cathedral dates from the thirteenth century-and at one time it was great commercial center. The treaty of union between Lithuania and Poland was signed there in 1869.

AT THE SULTANA

Tonight. ''The Scarlet Sin" Broadway Universal Feature, under the direction of Otis Turn CT, will be given. This is a five reel photo-play triumph present ing Hobart Bosworth in the leading role. It is a stirring play in which Eric Norton. a minister, does not close his door forever upon his wife when she runs away with another man, but, seeing how much of the blame is his own, he takes her back when she returns to him. He forgives her, prays with her and reminds her that tho her sins have been as scarlet they may be washed as white as snow. It breaches a sermon none can afford to. miss.
