TOWN SUPREME
IN WELCOMING TROOP
New Haven Paper Pays Trib
ute to Oelwein--Soldiers
Bathed and Dined.

The Daily Union, of New Haven,
Conn, has q letter from its CORE
spondent with the Connecticut troops
en- route to the Mexican border, tell
ing of the remarkable reception Of the
troops by the citizens of Oelwein, la.
The letter follows:
En- Route to Nogales, AriZ.-Never
before was such a reception accorded
to any body Of soldiers, either march,
ing away to battle or returning victori-
GUS from battle as the reception ten
dered Troop A by the people Of Gel
vein, Ia, when the troop stopped there
Sunday morning to water n feed
their horses.
las Don as Mayor Cole heard that
the troop was in town he came to
the railroad station and, after a short
conference with Captain Wolfe, it was
decided to take the boys out to the city
park and let them go swimming. About
40 of the citizens brought their auto
mobiles to the railroad station and the
troops was conveyed in state to the
city park, where a swim of about an
hours duration was enjoyed. Never
did water feel n better to any body
of men h that water did to the hot
and dusty men of Troop A.
They dove and floated and ducked
each other until the whistle for all out
was blown and, even then, they were
reluctant to leave.
THE automobiles that had brought
the boys to the park took them back
to the city and, after a lengthy ride
about the city, the Catholic members
Of the troop attended services at st.
Joseph's church.
THE ladies Of the relief corps Of
II town In the meantime had gotten
busy and when the boys returned to
the station, ice cream and sandwiches
were ready for them. After consuming
these, the boys roamed around the city
as they pleased and again assembled
at the station at 3 o'clock, preparatory
to leaving again.
"The entire troop, officers and men,
was drawn up or the station platform
and photographers for the local papers
took their pictures. Members of Gel
vein council, Knights Of Columbus, had
in the meantime loaded the car used
as a Kitchen with fruit, ice cream,
cigars, CANDY and other things to eat,
pnd those, along with the large amount
Of supplies that the troop had already
bought, will more than provide for the
rest OF the trip south.
After cheering Mayor Cole and the
city Of Oelwein, the troop left DEL
vein accompanied by the cheers and
good wishes Of very nearly the en-.
tire population Of the town"

Reasons Why.

From the New York World.
To the Editor of the World:
If you can spare the time. would
you be good enough to briefly explain
the reasons why the republican party
and the interests in Wall street are so
strongly opposed to the federal re-
serve banking system and why they
prefer a central bank system?
Summit, N. j., Aug. !. p. c. F.
There is one obvious reason why Wall
street prefers a central bank to the federal
reserve system. 1t is that the anking
dominated and controlled from Wall street
through a central bank than through q
system based on II autonomous reserve
banks
There is one obvious reason why. II Wall
street prefers a central bank, the old re-
publican party should also prefer q CEN
trail bank. This reason is too much a mat
ter of the country's recent history in poll
tics and finanCe to require eXpOundlng.
This, however. does not dispose OF the
Immediate question at hand. Has this old
partnership of Wall street and the repub-
at Washington for the particular purpose
OF ripping up the federal reserve system
and establishing a central bank?
We 90 not know. We are trying to find
out. The republican platform Is silent
on this point. while voluble on the point OF
cratic government. Mr.. Hughes is equally
silent, although pressed to say where he
stands. Wall street Is also very quiet, al
though its biggest bank outside the re-
serve system Is known to be canVassing
In a hostile spirit banking opinion OF that
system.
In the old partnership these partners
were both silent partners, and the great
or their silence the greater reason the
country had to watch out.

GERMAN PRESS UPHOLDS
EXECUTION OF FRYATT

Berlin, Thy wireless to SayviIis),
Aug. SHERMAN newspapers discuss
British comment in regard to the ex-
ecution of Capt. Charles Fryatt, Of the
British steamship Brussels, declaring
unanimously that British commenta-
tors are attempting to confuse the
facts by pretending hat the captain
was sentenced to death because he de-
Tended himself against aggression"
says the Overseas News agency. AS
a matter of fact, the sentence was i'm
posed because he undertook a treach-
erous surprise attack on a German
submarine sa order to gain the prize
promised fer the destruction 81 q rub
marine.
The newspapers insist, furthermore,
that Germany never admitted the un-
limited right Of defense, and that 1t In
Irrelevant whether Great Britain
agrees with his standpoint, iAasmuch
as British legal views are d~epeadest On
considerations Of e~Xpediency and net
of justice. For example. the British
wal OF starvation against the unarmed
population Of Germany Is absolu Sely
opposed to international law. As for
the indignation shown by the English
press, the German newspapers refer to
the murder Of men on a German sub
marine by the British patrol boat Bar
alonS, to the case of the British trawl-
err ing Stephen, which refused to save
the crew of h wrecked Zeppelin Liz,
and to the ~butcheries of the Irish. They
also recall the fact that the heroine Of
Loos recently was made the recipient
OF a British decoration for the cow
ardly and ~treacherous murder Of five
German soldiers"

BRAVE SOLDIER OF FORTUNE
srlmaIdi, Who Drove the Moors From
the Mediterranean, Given Monaco
as His Reward.

One of the many disappointments
d the present wal is almost total abb
sence Of thrilling stories concerning
The soldier of fortune. Even the "for-
eign legion" Of France, that is made
M of dare-devils from oil over the
world, has little or nothing in the way
Of romance to offer, and the romantic
spirits have always been the ones that
attached themselves to the French ban
DER.
Did you ever hear of the most dis
unguished of the Grimaldi family, not
the Genoese general who remained at
home and fought for his own country,
nor yet the artist who did heroic stunts
on canvas, nor the sixteenth century
Grimaldi who died by the hand Of an
assassin in the palace at Monaco, but
the tenth century ancestor Of that
prince, who saved Monaco from the
Moors? His was an achievement
worthy of a true soldier Of fortune.
The tiny principality, perched or its
seagirt cliff had been settled by the
Creeks even before Athens became
the greatest city Of the civilized world.
It was one Of the cultural outpOsts Of
Rome, and in the fifth century 1t was
an important center of Christianity.
Then the Moors crossed the Medi-
terranean. extended their sway over
Spain and seized the ancient Herculis
MOnoeci Portus and gave over its
churches and monasteries to the in
fdels. For 200 years they defied the
soldiers Of Europe. and then Grimaldi
m There had been many wars in
Genoa, and here was a chance for a
Genoese captain. When his military
genius had driven the Moors into the
sea, he vas rewarded by being made
absolute monarch of a country SO miles

''QUININf JIM BROUGHT
DRUG MONOPOLY TO KNEES.

Another Western Kentucky Con-
gresham gained a national reputation
by championing a novel fight was
James A. Mckenzie, of Christian
county, better known as "Quinine
Jim," who represented the Second
District at Washington from 1877 to
1883.
While he WIS an able man in many
respects, "Quinine Jim" is chiefly
remembered for his long and success
full fight for cheaper quinine, he hav-
ing against great odds succeeded
in placing this medical necessity on
the free list, and after the high pro-
tectiye tariff was removed the price
tumbled from s. to 40 cents an
ounce. When he first started the fight
for cheaper quinine he was laughed
az, but single-handed and alone, he
grappled with the monopoly that con-
trolled the American marketand finally
forced an unwilling majority in Con-
gress to see the justice of his claim
and remove the tariff duties from the
drug, which at that time was as
essential in a household in a COM
munity where malaria and chills and
fever abounded as sugar and coffee.
During his Congressional career
