But It is Not Open to the Gen.
eraI Public at All for Mill
tary Reasons.

LONDON, August 12.-Tho most in
teresting museum in London is not
open to the general public. 1t is the
museum of the censor and contains
collection Of most curious exhibits
which represent attempts that have
been made to GYade the British naval
blockade since the outbreak of the
war.
Most Of these exhibits come from the
United States where thousands of pCO-
pie Of German extraction have dCs-
patched all sorts Of useful things to
friends and relatives in the Father
land. Many Of the exhibits indicate
the pains and ingenuity of the sendes;
in some instances they made a pound
of lard look like copy Of the morn
ing paper or packet of pure rubber
like a bundle of narcissus bulbs.
A side of bacon weighing forty
pounds is mute evidence Of the at
tempt made by a st. Louis man to as
suage the hunger of some friends or
relatives in what was undoubtedly his
former home town. In his anxiety TO
get the bacon to Germany this man
sent it by first class mail and attached
stamps to the bacon itself to the value
Of nearly S..
! There are many other instances In
which the stamps on the packages by
| far exceed the value of the contents.
Many parcels have duplicate covers,
They are addressed to someone in a
neutral country, whose business it Is
to pull off one cover and repost them
to the German or Austrian address re-
vealed below.
An enterprising Buffalo man sent a
large number Of letters each contain
ing a sheet Of pure rubber. Rubber
has been a scarce commodity in Ger
many for more than a year and e.
forts have repeatedly been made to get
through the blockade all sorts Of these
articles. Once in Germany the rub
Der would be sent to a central depot
where It ultimately would have
emerged as rubber tires.
/ This ccnsor's museum contains huge
bundles Of newspapers or what aD-
peared at first glance to be newspaD-
crs. Closer inspection reveals that the
neatly rolled ends are but cleveTly
made plugs of paper and wood When
one of these plugs is pulled out there

bag Of calico containing anything from

Two iron crosses are not the least
interesting Of the exhibits They are

sent from Germany to a child in the
United States. The consigner was
maker of the crosses, the head Of the
firm that supplies them to the German
government, and in an accompanying
letter he suggests that the recipients
wear them.
Shoes are the most numerous Of the
exhibits and most of these come from
the United States.

Rixey is certain 10 be the slabman against
the Cardinals In the second game Of the
series Rxey worked last on Monday, and
with three days in which to get in shape
should hold the invaders In check today.
Just who Higgins will send to the front is
unknown, but it looks like Meadows, the
bespectacled youth with the sharp, break
ing curve.
After going through light hitting
series against the Cubs, the champs came
back strong against the Cardinals and sure
made up for the light attack against Tink-
er's beavers Even Willie Doak, star twlrler
on the Mound City nine, was a mark for
the Moran batsmen, and just now ii Rp-
pears as though all pitchers will look alike
10 them. They have climbed displacing
the Braves for second place, and now feel
certain of taking the series from the west
erners.
In the event Huggins sends southpRw
to the firing line. then the fans can expect
10 see Gavvy Cravath back in right field,
but with a right handler working 1t looks
as though Wilbur Good will be kept in
