DANIELS TURNS GUNS
ON ADMIRAL FISKE

The Secretary of the Navy, Josephus
Daniels, brought the hearings before the
House Naval Affairs Committee to a
close yesterday by administering a part
ing broadside of accusation against the
foremost of his naval critics, Rear Ad-
miral Bradley A. Fiske.
The Secretary charged by Implication
that the opinions OF his former chief
aid and advisor on the shortcomings OF
the administrations naval policy were
inspired not by genuine differences over
the question of preparedness. but by dis
appointed ambition. Rear Admiral Fiske
he said. had asked for the appointment
of commander-in-chief of the Atlantic
fleet so many times that his opportunities
became embarrassing. Shortly after the
appointment of Admiral Fletcher to that
command. he asserted, Admiral Fiske's
dissatisfaction with the trend of depart
mental affairs became manifest.
The Secretary's reply was evidently
carefully arranged by himself and the
chairman of the committee, Representa-
tive Padgett. Just as the hearings were
about to close the latter propounded the
questions regarding the personal and Of
ficial relations between the Secretary
and Admiral Fiske

The window dressers' section of the
Retail Merchants Association last night
selected a committee to confer today
with the Chamber of Commerce concern
ing the window display contest the
chamber is conducting. The dates for
Thursday. Friday and Saturday of this
week.
The display men met last night in the

present at the meeting.
The dressers' committee will confer
with the Chamber of Commerce prin-
cipally as to the method of selecting
tors who have enrolled in the contest
numbering more than 1S0-decided Sat
urday that an official suggestion from
the section would be advisable and &C.
cordingly deferred taking action until
that suggestion was made.
1t Is felt by the dressers that the
judges should have a universal taste, as
it were. They say that a shoe merchant
should not judge a shoe window, but
that his taste more likely would be
truest in passing criticism on a depart.

with the department store manageable
would be better able to judge a special
line Of goods than a general exhibit oil

The entente allies reply to the
American protests against mail seizures
was presented to the State Depart
ment yesterday by the British Ambas-
sador. 1t upholds the allies legal
right to exercise control over mail on
board ship and justifes seizures on
the ground that Germany has been
using the mails to transmit war con.
traband.
Specific instances are given, with
proof of where Germany sought
to use the parcel-post system OF
neutral countries in efforts to re.
plenish supplies badly needed for war
The entente allies take the view that
Germany has simply been imposing

lations to use the mails for obviously

BILLY SUNDAY

both clergymen and laymen in his IA
nous sermon on Gods Arrow" He
urged the ministers to take OF their
masks and fight for Christianity.
Hoarse from the strain of a steady
flow OF picturesque terms first hurled
at the ministers and then at the audi
ence. he concluded with a fiery prayer:
Now Lord, bless this bunch. Bless
Bishop Cranston; bless all these fellows
who Just patted us on the back and
shook our hands and made US feel a
lot better, though we had to hurry right
on, because we've got to leave here at
o'clock.
And God grant that all the 42-cen-
timeters Of he'll can't make a breach in
Heavens ramparts; help these Meth
odists; they're good fighters, Lord, to
fight your battles"
Sunday declared MIcaiah was a six
cylinder preacher, who wasn't ready to
throw up the sponge Just because ali the
star preachers on the circuit knocked
him down. "A lot of preachers" he
said, ARE in the churches for the loaves
and fishes. You let a preacher get in
and tear the mask OFF the devils face
and in fifteen minutes the congregation
will have nervous prostration.
Urges Militant Church.
THE kind of preaching a lot of people
want is the kind that will allow them to
stay Chummy with the devil all week and
go to church on Sunday and retain their
self-respect."
Sunday asserted he was through
preaching about controlling the temper
because the modern church members
haven't any TENDERS worth preaching
about What we want" he said, "is
fighting preachers who won't sell out
to some old money bag"
The audience demanded a word from
Ma" Sunday, who arose and said:
Whatever he tells you to do, go and
do it"

Leasers Make Fortune In Mine.

kin lease on Niger hill shipped the
accumulated lead ore from the gold
vein from which the lessees have TAX
en- number of pockets of free gold
ranging in value from $4,000 to $780,
900. The ore was assorted into three
lots, altogether making shipment of
twenty-seven tons and 500 pounds,
which was shipped to the Globe
smelter, Denver. Theodore Knorr
and o. X. Gaymon, who own some
thing like S5 per cent of the lease,
looked after the sampling of the ore.
The returns were had about June 10
and showed the value of the ship
ment to be $4,000 for gold, silver and
lead. The gold ore vein is mined
through the 1,S00 feet long tunnel
which cuts both the lead vein and the
gold vein at depth of 625 feet be
low the top of the hill. The richest
of the three lots of ore gave a re-
turn of lao ounces of gold ton. All
of the lots carried good values in sill

New French Army Helmet.

Sixty-four operations are necessary
In making one of the steel helmets
that the French soldiers wear. The
first step. says PearsOn's Magazine, is
stamping out disks from great sheets
of steel. A machine that exerts pres
sure of one hundred and fifty tons,
and can cut out 5000 disks a day,
does that work.
Each disk is placed under n shap-
ing machine, which presses the disk
into the form of helmet with a
broad rim. Polishing and cutting ma
chimes remove all Irregularities in the
helmet, after which holes are p6hched
in the crown-some for ventilation
purposes, others for fastening on the
reglmental crest.
Each helmet is cleaned and dipped
In a special mixture that makes it n
dull, inconspicuous blush gray. A
lining and leather chin straps are
then fastened on, and the helmet is
complete. Since the French troops
have begun to wear helmets the num-
ber of deaths from wounds in the
head has decreased to a remarkable
extent.
