 But Jamie wasn't a bit afraid of him.. He ran right out to the rag mans rickety old wagon and shouted, "Hey! Stop! I've got some rags for you!'
 The rag man followed Jamie into the back yard, a big bag dangling from his hand and the pennies jing- ling in his pocket
 Jamie had been saving rags for ever so long. He wanted to get enough money to buy 8 really, truly boys bicycle, and selling rags to the rag man was one way he got pen nies.

met Meeting Tuesday Be-
fore Sending the Note.

WASHINGTON, May 8.-A note to
Germany has been practically COM
pleted and probably will be forward
ed to Berlin Monday. 1t will be made
public soon after. 1t Is understood
1t will be brief. informing Germany
that as long as the new instructions
TO submarine commanders are oh
served, diplomatic relations will be
continued. but that the United States
cannot allow Germany to dictate its
negotiations with Great Britain.
The president worked on the pro-
posed communication early Monday
following his conference with Secre-
tary Lansing Sunday night. 1t is un-
derstood officials are so far agreed on
the policy to be pursued that 1t will not
be necessary to wait for the cabinet
meeting Tuesday.
While the German note has avert
ed for the present at least a break in
diplomatic relations, 1t was said Mon
day that the president was not satisfied
with the apparent conditions attached
! by Germany. The United States
stands by Its demand that Germany
cease its attacks on vessels In violation
of international law, regardless of ne
gotiations which may be carried on
with Great Britain over the food block
ade.
Some OF his advisers wanted him TO
make no reply to the German note
and only wait developments but he is
understood to have decided to send
the new communication.

After Seventy-Seven Days of
Battle Germans Are Max
ing a New Attack.
VERY FORMIDABLE ARMY
Principal Effort of the Germans
is against Dead Man Hill
near verdun.

PARIS. May S.-Fighting OF great
violence continued Sunday night on
the Verdun front. Furious German
attacks near hill 304 were broken by
the French, the war Office announced
Monday.
After seventy-seven days OF battle
the Germans are making new attack
before Verdun with another formidable
army. Fighting almost equal in VOL
ence to that of the beginning of
March Is In progress on both banks
of the Mouse.
The principal effort OF the Germans
is being directed against Dead Man
hill. Following the Napoleonic policy
OF attempting to turn what cannot be
carried by frontal attacks, the Ger
mans with whole army corps made
the assault by way OF the ravine be-
tween hill 304 and Dead Man hill, seek
ing to crush in the French line along
a front OF one and one-half miles. The
ground there Is favorable for attack
and the French commander, aware OF
the weakness OF the position, placed
one OF his best trained army corps at
that place. This corps disposed of the
initial attack without ceding any i'm
portant ground but the battle is still
raging and according to the latest
advices the. result will not be known
until some time today
East of the Mouse the Germans de-
livered four attacks on front of 1000
yards each advance being made by a
different Prussian regiment. The
fighting there is as fierce as on the
other side of the river and as incon-
elusive.

GENERAL FUNSTON TO ACT
Secretary Baker Says Ameri-
can Commander Needs No
New Instructions.

WASHINGTON, May S-Secretary
Baker stated Monday that the war
department considers the agreement
under which the army began the pur-
suit of villa bandits still in opera
tion and that under its terms, Gener-
al Funston will take any steps nee
essary to pursue the bands which
Sunday raided the Big Ben country
without further instructions.
A new American expedition may
already be across the Mexican border
in pursuit of the bandits who raided
Glen Springs and oBquillas, Tex, last
week. Secretary Baker said Monday
he had received a report from Gener-
al Funston as to steps taken in that
direction but declined to reveal its
contents. He said General Fuston's
original orders still stood, however,
and they gave him authority to cross
whenever the need arose.
No additional report of the raid
had reached the department at the
time.

NOT GUILTY
OF Participating in Marble
Theft Are Alvin Davis and
Dale Nutter.

A complex situation arising from
the theft of large number OF mar
bles from the Akro Agate Compnay's
plant last Tuesday night caused at
least two boys in the Monticello
neighborhood to be placed in rather
a bad light. Later developments
showed their innocence. 1t appear
that Alvin Davis, son of Mingo Da-
Wis, and Dale Nutter, son OF Thomas
S. Nutter. were guilty OF no wrong
doing, as they merely, with other
boys, saw where another boy had hid
den marbles and they went to the
place of hiding and helped them
selves with no knowledge that the
marbles had been stolen. The cor
rection is made in justice to these
two boys.
