Miss Davis had been regarded as

NOT FOR COMPROMISE
[RepubIIcan A. p. Leased wlre1

BELFAST, June 12-The Ulster
Unionist council, while showing no
enthusiasm for the proposed home
rule compromise, at a meeting today
presided over by Sir Edward Carson,
authorized Sir Edward to proceed
with the negotiations. The attitude
of the members was that they were
willing to make sacrifices, to obtain
settlement which will be strength
ening to the empire and would aid
in winning the war The meeting
was private but a statement of the
proceedings shows that the counties
Cavan, Monaghan aud Donegal pro-
tested against separation from the
rest of Ulster but agreed to abide by
the decision of the other six Ulster
counties. The meeting further
adopted a resolution stating that ir
the event of the failure of negotia.
tions complete freedom of action was
reserved to oppose the whole policy
of home rule.

between 600 and 700 miles. From Riga
to the Jasiolda river, northwest of

SCIENTISTS MAY TALK TO
OTHER PLANETS IN FUTURE
lnterstellar Wireless Communication
Not an Impossibility, In the
Opinion of Astronomers.

That interstellar wireless communi-
cation may be possibility of the fu-
ture is belief now held by not a
few scientists.
M. Guzman has promised to pay $20,-
900 to the astronomer who first estab-
fishes communication with any planet
or star other than Mars.
M. Guzmans elimination of Mars as
wireless station in the competition
he is promoting is based upon his be-
lief that experiments made by Ameri-
can astronomers in Arizona prove that
a wireless expert who talked with the
Martians would be overpaid if he re-
ceived 100000 francs. This perform
ance, to his mind, is too easy, too lack
ing in romantic and sensational fea-
lures to be worthy of the modest for
tune he has dedicated to science.
But, if the Martians have learned
how to build canals without inviting
landslides, have made of irrigation
processes an exact science, and have,
as various authorities contend, learned
how to fly by their own motive power,
there are numberless specialists in
this country who would be pleased to
call them up by long distance at once.

War Brings Inventions.

The perils of scouting and recon-
noitering during the present war have
caused the Germans to devise a pocket
flashlight which is less dangerous to
use than the type employed early In
the war, which shed its rays straight
ahead and so attracted the enemy's
fire. This new lamp has hood so de-
signed that the incandescent bulb, the
lens and the reflector all move in uni
son when the hood is raised or low

held on the breast by loop on the

use, includes compass in recess be-

Famous War Horses of Old
Replaced by Automobiles

One probable result of the introduce
ton of mechanical vehicles into war
fare will be the abolition of the old
custom of cherishing the memory of
famous war horses. When generals
conducted campaigns on horseback,
before the advent of the field motor
car, their favorite chargers used to re-
ceive many honors.
Wellington's famous charger Copen-
hagen, when he died was buried with
full military honors. The Iron Dukes
horse was a magnificent chestnut, and
he carried his master many hundreds
of miles in SPAIN and at the battle of
Toulouse.
The remains of Napoleons white
stallion, Marengo, are preserved at the
Royal United Service institution, while
another of Bonaparte's steeds, which
he purchased at st. Helena, and bore
the name of King George, figures in
many famous paintings.
The horse which Lord Ronald rode
in the Balaklava charge was cherished
by his family until it's death, when
tombstone was erected over its grave.
Traveller, which gained fame in the
Civil war as the favorite charger OF
Gen. Robert e. Lee, is now a popular
exhibit in museum at Virginia, its
skeleton having been carefully pre-
served in a glass case.

Back Yards Show Character
By SAMUEL C. DIXON M D.
Commissioner Of Health Of Pennsylvania

hood? You have work ahead for you
for your health's sake and for the
sake of decency if any of these condi-
lions exist.
II is privilege to have back yard,
even small one. There are thousands
of dwellers in cities where land is sold
by the square foot, who yearn for
little space to call their own. Those
who are so fortunate as to have back
yards should care for them and make
use of them.
If there are children in the family
the back yard should be their play
ground. A doll house, turning pole, a
swing or tent will provide almost
unlimited entertainment and help to
keep children off the streets.
If there are no children in the fam
lily, shovel, a rake, a hoe and mod
erate-sized backyard garden should
afford a reasonable amount of health
full exercise combined with pleasure
and profit.

Fish Got Lighted Cigar.

Not only are the pickerel biting
ravenously at Little Creek pond, In
Sussex county, N. j., but it was dis.
covered recently that these big fel.
lows have formed a bad habit calling

John Avery, cigarmaker; Edward
Martin, Jr., and Louis Rumsley, all
of Union Hill, went to the pond the
other day to fish. They had just cut
a hole in the Ice and were batting
their hooks when Avery accidentally
dropped a lighted and salf-smoked
cigar into the hole.
Instantly, he said, big pickerel shot
to the surface and gulped the cigar,
A moment later Mr.. Avery dropped his
hook and line into the hole and in a
few seconds there was violent tug
ging at the line. He pulled. and Out
came pickerel almost yard long.
AS Mr.. Avery started to pry his
hook from the big fellows mouth he
said he found his halfsmoked cigar
still lighted, In the pickerel's mouth

weren't certain the cigar was lighted
