 According to this dispatch German of- fcer who surrendered lou men in body said he thought they would be of more use alive in Germany after the war than dead.

Press Camp in France, July 5.-(Noon. Via London )-The total number of prison CTS taken thus far in the Anglo-French offensive probably has reached 15,000. Judging from these figures the German losses as a whole, it is estimated here, have been at least 60,000
 The British have taken Il guns. The rela~ ' small number captured is due to the 1act that the Germans, in antici- patton of the attack. withdrew their guns to longer ranges.
 It is reported by prisoners that the Ger mans are sending in reserves hastily from many points on the western front.

 And in this connection, it is apparent that with the republicans in control of the Senate and House. the determination Of President Wilson to raise nonpartisan tariff commission would result in noth- ing tangible or permanent. \

NAVY DEPARTMENT BUYING MUCH STEEL Government Orders to Be
 Given Preference MILLS ARE BEHIND Iron Trade Review Carries Story Showing That Demand in All De- partments Is Greater Than Ca-
 pacity for Production

Cleveland, O., July 5.-(Special. .)-The Iron Trade Review tomorrow will say:
 The very extensive construction plans of navy department will require fully 10000 tons of steel plates for hull ma terial and about 75O,OOO tons additional for armor plate and protective deck plates. Demand for new war vessels coming on top of very heavy business already on books will present serious problem to plate manufacturers and ship builders, but all will do their utmost to rush government work and will give 1t preference over other business De- mand for plates for export continues very heavy and about 100000 tons, prin- cipally for Italy, Japan, and England, are pending.
 June made new record in iron ore movement from Lake Superior ranges, shipments aggregating 9507,576 tons ore or more than 100000 tons greater than record breaking month of May If ship ments from July 1 to close of season are equal to same time in 1913 total movement will be 52,561 ,002 tons, but it seems likely that unless strike situa- ton on ranges develops more seriously than it has, rate of shipment for re- mainder of season will exceed that of 1913
 MANY UNVEILED ORDERS
 Of approximately 1O,0O0oO0 tons thrilled orders on books of Steel corporation ac- tual specifications amount to about G. 0OO,0c0 tons an unusually large percent age. New business is somewhat less than shipments and thrilled tonnage report for June probably will show moderate reduction. One plate maker is endeav- oring to buy large tonnage from other mills.
 fnr ctn fo,, z locomotives is heavy. Some recent shell orders, including one for a million forg- ings, cannot be delivered until long aft CT the first of next year. One large dealer is sold upon shell steel until after May l.
 Corporation has finally booked it's part of large Russian rail orders amounting to close to 100000 tons. Independents are still negotiationg for their share of the tonnage rails to be delivered by next July.
 Demand for equipment for movement of army toward Mexico is not heavy but considerable inquiry is pending. The White company, Cleveland, received an order for 400 trucks for immediate ship ment to Mexican border.
 DEMAND FOR TIN PLATE
 Demand for large quantities of tin cans have added to pressure on the tin plate market in which prices have been advanced fully 100 per cent com pared with a year ago.
 Hot weather, as usual Is having effect in reducing production of pig iron and output of coke and anthracite furnaces for June show loss of 150,766 tons com pared with May, June tonnage being S,213,S1S tons. There were. however, four more active stacks at the end of June than at the beginning. i 47N Including charcoal iron, present pro- duction is at the rate of nearly 100000 tons per year Output of furnaces for first six months this year was 19,3S1,- 954 tons, compared with F, ,043,5O3 tons in same period in 1915 and 17529,65S tons in last half of 1915.

RUBAIY I.

~ n = y
When Christmas morn had put the
stars to flight
l rose at length, and 10, before my
sight
Ten copies Of the Rubaiyat APP
peared
Which ten good friends had thought
would strike me right.
Whether at New Orleans OF Babylon,
Whether the cup with sweet or bitter
run,
Each Christmas when the post
men ring the bell
The Rubaiyats keep coming one by
one.
Though well love the poem Omar
writ,
I'm sorry that it eer made such a
hit;
For. every friend I have beneath
the sun
At Christmas time is sure to send me
it.
Lucille was once the proper thing to
send,
In padded leather, to far off friend.
In days gone by we fairly sowed
Lucilies.
But now tits Rubaiyat, world without
end.
Strange, is it not, that of the myrads
who
Present old Omar bound in read or
blue
How seldom are the ones who,
sending It,
Have ever taken time to read 1t
through!
Myself I've often purchased three or

And given them to friends in days
of yore;
But now whene'er l give the

ROAD MAINTENANCE

Earth road maintenance now is
and will continue for some years to
be the real road problem of Kansas
since it is not likely that more than
very small per cent of the highways
will be paved in this generation, as
serts w. S.. Gearhart, professor OF
highway engineering in the Kansas
State Agricultural College and state
highway engineer.
practically all the work done on
an earth road, except reduction OF
grades, correction of horizontal
alignment, building of drainage
structures, and elimination of rail-
way grade crossings, is temporary
| and should properly be considered
maintenance" said Mr.. Gearhart.
"Doing permanent work is a COM
paratively easy matter, for when once
| II is done correctly it will last for a
lnumber Of years. The maintenance
of an earth road, however, Is a never
ending job. It is like milking q
COW and doing other chores, for the
builder knows that the work Of main
tenance will have to be done over, and
over again and can never feel that 1t
is in any sense permanent.
"For this reason the earth road has
bad reputation. The trouble is not
so much with the material of which
the road is composed as with our sys-
tenn or lack of system of manage
ment. Other types of roads when
treated as we treat the earth roads
are much more expensive and serve
the travelling public little II any bet
ter. The vast improvement that can
/ be made on our present earth roads
by intelligent direction in their con-
struction and maintenance is little
realized by the public, and the SER
viceability of properly maintained
earth road is not appreciated when

Y. W. C. A. MYSTERY
SPIRITUAL IN IT'S
DESIGN AND SCOPE
So Described by Religious Sec
retary of Association-Secret
Meeting of Executive Com
mittee Members
DESIRE CHRISTIAN HOME

An air of mystery enshrouds the work.
ings of the Executive Committee OF the
philadelphia Y. w. G. A. and the secret
meeting of specially appointed members
of various committees this afternoon.
The Executive Committee met this
morning at 1880 O'Clock in the tower
room of the central building The work
ers would not tell where the meeting this
afternoon Is TO be held. Some of the
, members OF the Executive Committee
have not been asked to attend this ses-
sion. whether this meeting has anything
TO do with the mysterious something"
which is hanging over the Y. w. c. a.
affairs II is impossible to say, because
the president of the association. Mrs. Jo-
seph a. Hudson, says, There is moth
ing, absolutely nothing, for publication at
this time"
The ultimate aim OF the Y. w. c. A. is
spiritual. and an association which misses
that point falls short In its aim, its key
note, according to Miss Emile Wyckoff
Vaughn, religious secretary of the asso-
citation.
She does not say that the local asso-
ciatton falls In its aim. but she is doing
all In her power, aided by daily pre- yers,
to keep 1t up to the spiritual ideal.
"All the girls of the Philadelphia Y. w.
c. n. are standing together for the spir-
itual side of the association" said Miss
Vaughn. THE response and the spirit
OF cooperation have been and are Splcn-
did. The aim of any and every Y w.
c. A. is r-fold-physical. social, mental
and splritual-wlth the emphasis on the
spiritual, to which all others work up as
climax. Our aim Is to make the Cen
trail Y. w. G. A. Christian home-a
home in the true sense OF the word.
The motto of the Y. w. C.. a. Is what
we follow, and the thing for which we are
praying" added Miss Vaughn with one of
her winning smiles. And that motto Is,
I am come that they might have life
and that they might have 1t more abund-
antly.'"
This motto, in green and gold and ef-
fectively illuminated with electric lights,
blazes above the platform in the assembly
room OF the central building at all re-
ligious sessions. Each morning at .
o'clock and each evening at Z o'clock in
the tower room OF the building young
women and secretaries OF the association
gather and hold prayer circles.
In the dining room, too, there is a spir-
itual feeling concerning the problems OF
the Y. W. G. A. The young women have
also been asked to remember the asso-
citation In their prayers at night. for i'm
portant matters are before the associa-
tion now-matters which few of the
young women thoroughly understand.
Still they are praying that the All Father
will guide the affairs of the home right.
