1T is, confess, difficult for me to

COHEN EMPLOYEES AT
FUNERAL I'M BODY

A touching tribute was paid to a
faithful employe yesterday when the
big department store of the Cohen
Company closed at 3:30 o'clock. in
order that its entire staff OF clerks and
employees could attend the funeral OF
Miss Mary Wagner Boie, who died
very unexpectedly at the Lake Hotel
Yellowstone Park. last Thursday,
while on her way to the exposition at
San Francisco.
The funeral took place from the
Monument Methodist Church yester-
day afternoon at o'clock, fntermeni
being made in Hollywood Cemetery.
Miss Boie was one of the leading
buyers for the Cohen Company and
had made several trips to Europe in
the firms interest. She had been with
the company thirty-seven years, hav-
ing been constantly employed by s,he
Cohen Company since her fourteenth
year.
"She was with us so long that we
feel her loss as keenly as II she had
been a member of the firm" said Mr..
Isaac Cohen. Of the Cohen Company
this morning. "she was accorded our
full confidence and trust and was
given every privilege, and was never
limited in buying for the house. We
considered her a partner Of the con-
Germ. Her death Is a great loss to
u.s."
While at Yellowstone Park Miss
Boie's brother was also taken serious
iy Ill and was taken to St. Paul Mis-
sion for treatment, where he IL i'm
proving.
Miss Boie's mother had been twice
married and the daughter adopted her
mothers name after her fathers
death.
She is survived by two brothers.

SUGGESTS BUYING
BY WHOLESALE

In an address to the creamery men
and dairymen OF waynesboro last Sat
urday Commissioner Benjamin. l.. Pur-
cell made a suggestion to them.
which, If carried into effect, will prob
ably result in large saving to them
In purchasing their supplies.
Mr.. Purcell suggested that either
the creameries purchase their supplies
OF feed and equipment in wholesale
quantities or else that they get q
local merchant TO act as their pur-
chasing agent In obtaini1S supplies.
Mr.. Purcell showed them by a conn
parison of wholesale with retail prices
how they could save from ten TO thirty
per cent by combining and buy ng in
car lots. On the single Item of cot
ton seed meal the saving would be
in the neighborhood of 81 per ton.

slider the matter and, II successfully
worked out. there, 1t will be or great

ACADEMIC.

The Danville Register quotes Sec
ton 8. of Article IL, of the Constitu-
ton OF the United States, and says
that Here the Constitution makes
specific provision for the contingency
of the resignation OF a president"
The section quoted states that in the
event of vacancy in the Presidents
chair, caused by resignation or other
causes, the vice president shall fill the
position.
We were, of course. aware OF this
provision when we asked to be cited
to the paragraph of the Constitution
providing the modus operandi of a
presidents resignation. There is as
much difference between the contin-
gency of a presidents resigning' and
the "modus operandi of resigning'
as there la between resigning and be-
ing impeached. although. of course.
1t is a difference of kind and not of
degree
But as the Register remarks. the
matter lis purely academic. and we
have no idea of driving our contem-
porary to delve into constitutional
law studies In the middle OF summer.

RETICENT AS TO WILSON.
Clerk In American Embassy Had No
Special Immunitfes.

Special Immunitfes.
Washington, July 2s.-State Depart
ment officials were reticent today re-
garding the case of Harry L. Wilson.
clerk In the embassy at Berlin. who
is reported to have been arrested on
a technical charge Of trying to leave
Germany without passport
The case is known to have been oc-
cupying the attention of Ambassador
Gerard and the State Department for
two weeks or more. 1t IL understood
that the real charge against Wilson
is that he fraudulently gave an Eng
lishman In Germany an American pass
port. thus enabling him to leave Ger
many.
Wilson Is reported to have been ar
rested near the German Danish border
as he was trying to get out OF the
country.
AS a clerk In the embassy Wilson
enjoys no diplomatic immunities or
privileges whatever. and the status OF
his case will be that-of any other Amer
lean coming in conflict with the German
authorities. 1t is understood. however,
that the United States government will
act in his behalf as far as possible,
although 1t Is not expected he will be
continued in the employ of the en-
bassy II the allegations against him
are proven.
Wilson was formerly clerk of the
military affairs committee of the SEN
ate. He was in Germany when the war
broke out with his wife and daughter
Like number of other Americans he
was given employment at the embassy
to aid in the great press of work
brought on by the war.

the subject Of diplomatic negotiations,
and this agreement has practically
admitted the right OF Great Britain
to restrict ahe cotton trade by seeking
from 1,er certain alieviations OF the
rulings under which she has in the
recent past restricted that trade.
Were the Government to follow
such course, there would be an i'm
mediate and emphatic protest from
every substantial element OF our pop
ulation. yet the very people in whose
interests the President and the Sec
rotary of State are carrying on the
negotiations are making the task diff
ficult, II not impossible, of accom-
pliyament by compromising the prin-
ciples at issue
One can readily zee in what an
embarrassing light the administration
will be put when it presents a demand
for cotton shippers and is met by an
indisputable statement that the ship
pers themselves have already made
an arrangement which goes directly
contrary to the representations they
have asked this Government to make
in their behalf. 1t would be much
like a lawyer entering a plea of not
guilty for his client and having his
client go on the stand and plead
guilty.
This is the case as regards the cot
ton shipments 1t is not the whole
case, but it represents the situation
with which the Government is con-
fronted. Yet, ignoring these facts,
and the additional facts that SUBJ
stantial British interests are even now
demanding that cotton be classed as
absolute contrabrand, demands are
made on the administration which are
almost from the ouset impossible OF
attainment. because of private COM
promises with governmental agents
,on the other side OF the DISPUTE.

MISSING LINK ASSURED

The decision of Richmond business
men to undertake the enterprise of
building a road from West Point TO
Urbanna marks the passage of an
other mile-post towards the goal to
which the city and the territory af-
fected have long been struggling.
The next proposition is the placing
Of stock. the raising OF subscriptions
In the counties through which the
road will pass. and the enlistment of
interest through all the affected ter
ritory.
That Richmond will heartily and
continually support the project goes
without saying, for Richmond real
ICES the need of the road and can
foresee the benefits that will be de-
rived from it's construction. Rich
mond men interested in the enter
prise are to be congratulated. and the
city Is proud of the fact that men of
vision and courage have arisen to
build this missing link that will do so
much to bring Richmond that which
rightly belongs TO her. The patriotic
citizens Of the Northern Neck who in
vest their time and money are like
wise to be commended for patience
and persistence.
