Fennell believes the soldiers have
not been, selling the liquor for profit,
but only to be arrested. He says they
had no supply on hand ana had ap-
parently purchased only few bottles,
probably from Iwilei inmates, to sell
to someone on Iwilei road when they
thought the officers were looking.

ANOTHER PERSIA NOTE.
T.. s. Asks Austria for Further In
 formation Regarding Incident

Washington, Jan. 29.-The United States has addressed another inquiry to Austria asking if any of it's sub marine commanders have knowledge of the destruction of the British liner Persia. A statement that they had none, reported to have been handed to Ambassador Penfield several days ago, never has been received here.
 State department officials consider that they virtually have exhausted every other source of information in their effort to establish what caused the sinking of the Persia with the loss of two American lives. Asser- tions by survivors that the ship was torpedoed by a hostile submarine, presumably Austrian, have not been proved. The state department wants definite statement from the Vienna government, and should a denial be received the case probably will be considered closed.

 Speaks to Women.
 President Wilson later spoke to an overflow meeting composed principally of women.
 The galleries and every available foot of space were occupied.
 The president declared women were as much interested in national defense as the men. But women, he added, often are closer to the heart of a nation than men, who are absorbed in business and other pursuits. To Feel Pulse of Nation. 1 Tn the home," he continued, "The women are able to feel the pulse of the nation. The old cry for the defense 1 of the hearth and the home was not particularly inspiring for it is easy to ! fight for ones own. But it is harder l to fight for the people as a whole or l government.

Pooling "The Peepul."
Stamford Advocate.)

A few years ago, nationwide 2e- hate was on between those who would defend the Hetch Hetchy, valley of California from the despoilation of its natural beauty by making it a reser- voir for the water supply of the Francisco. The valley is second only to the Yosemite for the magnificenee of it's natural scenery, but there were not lacking eloquent orators and Wrlt CTS to protest against the mere sel--s tirnentalism, as they called it, which would leave a great city to suffer Tor water in order to preserve a piece Of natural scenery. Engineers of high reputation pointed out that there were other and cheaper means of procur- ing an ample and permanent water supply, but it was of no use. The "suffering people" gag carried the day. Now it has developed. what was stated all along by the opponents of the scheme. that it rested on false pre- tenses. and that the real object of the promoters was to grab a big water mower and turn it's earnings into their own pockets. That is now practically confessed by the promoters, who have no further occasion for masking their real purpose. And that is but one in stance of the way the public is be- logged and befooled by active punches of self-seeking conspirators W

committee consists of R. Uhlig, Au- gust M1chaelas, Joseph Underweger, Joseph Mund and Adolph Six. The club has membership of seventy and the oldest members are J. w. Neidel, 5. Zahn and J. Baumgartner.
 The New Britain Schuetzen Verein, the formal title of the organization, was perfected in 1870 and a shooting range was established on the proper ty of c. B. Irving on South street, be- tween South Main street and the rail- road. Later another range was es- tablished at the Vibberts farm and club house was built, but when this was destroyed by fire, a range was constructed at Rentschlers park, which was used until 1889, when the club found it advisable to move to Charles R .Witte's farm on East street.
 In 1893 the club concluded to buy a desirable piece of property for a per- manent park and acquired four acres near Andrews crossing and erected a large shooting house and later a cot tage for the club members. Still la ter a large pavilion with a short rifle range and other improvements were added.
 The Ladies' German Rifle club was organized in 1896 and at present has about 25 members The ladies shoot at both the short and 200 yard ranges. Both clubs contains some excellent shots, some being among the most skillful in the state. The clubs afford the members an opportunity for re- creation and social diversion and all are highly enthusiastic over the or ganization. The Ladies' Rifle club will give a fancy masquerade ball at Bardecks hall Monday evening.

Long Life In War.
(Boston Post. ]

In some way, perhaps, the state- ment of tho life insurance companies in Germany modifies the inference drawn from the official report of the casualties in the war. The latter ad- ' init that 5S9, 900 German soldiers have been killed; the wounded and inca pacitated, with those missing and
 perhaps defunct, number 1,566. .549; and there are captured and held as
 prisoners 356,0O0. s
 What is the effect? According to the insurance companies. the mortal ity of the entire population during the first year of the war has exceeded A only slightly the mortality in time of peace. With the slaughter at the front, this is a remarkable showing just as it stands. But the birth-r rate \ has to be considered; this, so far as information is obtainable, has been ! reduced.
 II is further to be considered that under the industrial pension system ! life insurance in German companies is largely restricted to the employing and capitalistic classes The figures of these companies seem to show that their insured members are long-lived even in war. But for the bone and sinew of the population in tho war. account has yet to be made of.lthez millions forever eliminated from their life activities.

IlmeS a very plain gentleman, often presided over the army.
 Should Dread War.
 Men should dread war and know that everything on which the nation depends comes from peace.
 The details of the army plans do not make any difference. Perhaps others have better plans. But I do want an adequate and efficient force of at least five hundred thousand men trained to the arts of war, who will be ready to protect the nation.
 This nation will not be stalked by ghosts and fancies
 "I am proposing something more than temporary. It Is my conception that as the government has encour- aged agricultural training, it should also encourage industrial training. and it is perfectly feasible along with in dustrial training to instruct our young men in the mechanism and handling of rifle, and guns and in the rudi- mentary arts of warfare.
 Train and Equip.
 But we can't take the time now to develop and encourage these schools. We must train and euuiv at once very considerable body of men.
 The test of preparedness does not lie in congress. It is going to be in the response of the young men of the country to the call to volunteer and of the employers of those men to place no obstacle to their answering the call l, for one believe both the young men and the employers will do their duty"
