A KANGAROO AT BAY,

ito Cunning Defense When Pursued
Into the Water by Dogs.
In the kangaroo hunts of Australia
capture is sufficiently easy, but some
times the kangaroo makes an original
defense.
IF possible the kangaroo directs his
fight toward river. If he reaches
it he enters, and, thanks to his great
height, he is able to 60 on foot to q
depth where the dogs are obliged to
swim.
There he plants himself on his two
hind legs and his tail and, up to his
shoulders in the water, awaits the ar
rival Of the pack. With his forepaws
he SEXES by the head the first dog
that approaches, and as he is more
solidly balanced than his assailant he
holds the dogs nose beneath the wa
ter as long as he can. Unless q second
dog speedily comes to the rescue the
first one Is inevitably drowned. Ii a
companion arrives and sets him free
he is glad to regain the bank as quick.
~ as possible.
A strong and courageous old kanga-
roo will hold his own against twenty
or thirty dogs, drowning some and
frightening others, and the hunter Is
obliged to intervene with bullet

will utilize the exhaust steam from
the engines during the colder no1eas.
This is a practice which is becoming
more and more, common, and saves
and utilities a great deal OF heat
which would otherwise 60 to waste.
In the summer like saving could
be effected BY using the steam for
the manufacture Of ice. There are
several such plants in the country al
ready, and they are rapidly inereas-
ing. Generally city does not at
tempt to supply the entire market,
but the amount it does sell acts az =
very beneficial regulator of tho pri-
vate prices. 49,.
Cleveland operates a cold storage
plant, where small family or neigh
borhood consignments are stored at
reasonable charges. A crate of thir-
ty dozen eggs is stored from April to
January for forty cents, for exam
pie. A hundred pounds Of butter are
kept from June to February for IF.
teen cents, a barrel of apples may be
kept a season for forty cents.
If it should be proved by exper-
fence that cities having steam elee-
trio plants can provide such service
for the citizens of the town and for
the neighboring farmers at reason
able cost it will open a whole new
field for practical community service.

There are many interesting refer

scattered about in the memoirs and b.

was a man who inspired strong likes

the judge got older: The following

VARIOUS CAUSES OF BLOODY
M1T,K

Bloody milk is more Objectionable,
perhaps, as a matter Of appearance
than as a menace to health. Hem
orrhages may occur within the udder
as direct result Of a bruise by
rapid motion, by bad position while
the cow is living down, 10y the tread
of cow in an adjoining stall, OF be-
cause Of the breaking of Tiny blood
vessel or the escape of red corpus
cles through thin vessel walls. Heavy
feeding may also produce bloody
milk.
The remedy is careful milking and
light feeding with laxative foods
and repeated small doses of mild
phvsic. When the trouble occurs
with cows giving a heavy flow of
milk and under heavy feed, improve.
ment follows marked reduction of
the rations. A change of stall may
give good results, if it allows COW
to obtain a better position and avoid
uneven pressure on the udder while
lying down. Cows with long heavy
udders should be driven slowly and
should not be driven over high hills.

CLASH ON GREEK BORDER
French Report Says Enemy Was Re-
pulsed in Several Skirmishes Near
Dorian and Elsewhere.

Paris, April 1.-THE ministry of
war issued the following statement
dealing with affairs liz the Balkans:
From April 10 no important action
occurred on the Greek frontier, but
both artillery forces were active and
a considerable activity on the part of
patrols brought about several small
skirmishes, notably at Pataros, Sedge-
Ii, Resell, and southwest OF Dorian,
where a strong German reconnois-
sance was repulsed.
ION April 5, and enemy aero
planes dropped bombs on the village
of Karasouli and Sarigol, without do
ing any damage. On the night Of April
1918 one of our squadrons ombard-
ed the German military establish
ments at Gievgeli. Another squadron
composed of twenty-three machines
dropped projectiles on the enemy
camp and batteries at Bogorodica."

BERLIN ADMITS THAT
U-BOATS SANK STEAMERS
Note Insists, However, That the YES
sells Were Legal Victlms-Asserts
Sussex Hit Mine.

Berlin, April IA (by wireless) The
German reply to the American note
concerning the damaging or sinking of
five steamships contains the statement
that the steamers Englishman, Eagle
Point, Manchester Engineer and Ber-
windvale were destroyed by German
submarines. Evidence is presented to
show that these vessels were torpe-
doed legally in accordance with the
rules of war.
The note states that a German sub
marine torpedoed a steamship in the
vicinity of the place at which the Chan
mel steamship Sussex was damaged by
an explosion, but that evidence at
hand indicates that the vessel torpe-
doed by the submarine was not the
Sussex.
The commander of this submarine,
the note says, made a sketch at the
time. This sketch has been compared
with a photograph of the Sussex and
has been found to show dissimilarities
in build, arrangement of stacks, etc.
Therefore it is presumed a mine was
responsible for the damaging of the
Sussex In the way of confederation,
it is STAGED that German naval forces
destroyed 26 floating mines on that
day.
Regarding the cases of the English
man, Manchester Engineer, Eagle
Point and Berwindvale, it is stated
they were signaled to halt, but disre-
garded the signals. Thereupon warn
ing shots were fired
The statement is made that the sub
marine commanders assured them
selves before sinking the ships that
their destruction was justified and
that the crews were safely in boats, no
man being left aboard the vessels.

PRESIDENTS APPEAL TO
THE PEOPLE is CHEERED
Wilson Asks in Jefferson-Day Speech
If All Are Ready for Great
Test.

Washington, April Is. - President
Wilson, speaking at a Jefferson day
banquet of Democrats from all parts
of the country here last night, prayed
that the United States would not be
drawn into a quarrel not of it's own
choosing, but asked whether the peo-
pie were ready to go in where the in
tereSts of America were coincident
with the interests of humanity, and
have the courage to withdraw when
the interests of humanity had been
conserved. He was interrupted by
cheers and shouts Of Yes"
The president mentioned the Euro
pean war and the Mexican question
without intimating what were his
plans in either of the problems con-
fronting the United States.
He declared that in the present
situation the responsibility was with
the Democratic party because that
party controls the government.
The president declared that he was
not interested in personal ambition,
nor even enthusiastic over party sue
cess, but that he was interested in
seeing the lo,d depressing humanity
lifted.
What the nation demands now, the
president said, is service essentially
nonpartisan, not only in considera-
tion of foreign affairs but in domestic
affairs as well.
Referring incidentally to Mexico, he
told of how a man had urged that
trustees for that nations welfare be
chosen, and of his reply that no ma
ton had achieved real prosperity and
happiness for it's masses through a
trusteeship imposed on it from above
1t was the first speech of political
nature the president had made for
several months. 1t was delivered be-
fore an audience including nearly all
the members of his cabinet, Demo
cratic members of the senate and
house, Democratic state chairmen
from many states, and other high Of
ficials of the nation and states.
The president was referred to re-
peatedly as the next president" by
Senators Hollis and Walsh and Rep
resentative Glass, who preceded him.
