Mosquitoes Dislike Yellow

San Francisco, CAL, Oct. 81
'Wear yellow and bluff the
mosquito" is the slogan of
scientists who are fighting this
little pest and who have discov-
cred the 'carnivorous insects an
tipathy to that primary color.
Their discoveries are supported
by the testimony of the United
States Marines, just returned
here from the Philippines, who
attribute their immunity from
mosquito-bite and malarial in
lection to the fact that their
khaki uniform is of a yellow
hue.
The wise summer vacationist
Of the future will bear in mind
this message of hope from
scientists and U. S. Marines,
and carry along a generous sup
ply of yellow hosiery. Still, some
pessimistic persons will be
bound to insist that mosquitoes
are color-blind.

THE gibson PLAYERS

The audience which w:t':ess-
ed the play entitled Barriers
Burned Away" as presented by
the ellison Players at Corde
Opero House Thursday night
left the Theatre highly pleased
with the performance. This
drama is built on the book by
the same name, written by f.
P. Roe, and has to do with
events surrounding the great
Chicago fire of 1870. While the
fire itself will live long in the
history as one Of the most ira
gic events Of modern times, en-
failing a loss Of life and proper
ty that is appalling, E. P. Roe
merely uses it as a vechile to
carry out the love story. A story
of course of a young man
and a young woman between
whom were raised the barriers
of wealth and social STATEN.
The author makes this fire per.
form at least one good act in
burning down those barriers 50
that two loving hearts in the
closing scenes, found no obstacle
to the elimination Of their at
fections. It is a story of human
interest, and was well played by
this company Of high class ar
lists. Saturday night the same
company will play the ''Bache-

KEEPING GOOD
ROADS GOOD

Keeping good roads good is
the most important task with
an improved highway system,
once the construction work is
completed. In the United States
in the past this task has usually
been neglected, the improved
roads in many instances being
allowed to deteriorate until they
became almost impossible when
they were, at heavy cost, re-
built. The States and counties
are now coming to recognize the
need of careful and through
going maintenance, however,
indicated by country road sys-
TENS in different sections of the
country recently made by the
Office of Public Roads and Ru-
raj Engineering of the depart
ment.
While some of the eight coun-
ties in which intensive studies
were made were found to have
no. provisions for maintenance
and others were found to pay
for the upkeep Of the roads out
of bond-issue funds, thus crea-
ting a debt that would outlive
the temporary improvement by
many years.; two counties in
widely separated states were
found in which maintenance
conditions were practically all
that could be desired. In Mis-
sissippi, it was found, there is
State law requiring that spe-
cial annual tax Of at least l mill
shall be levied for the upkeep of
all roads constructed by means
of bond issues, the fund to be
kept separate from all other
funds and to be used for main
tenance only. Instead Of the de-
terioration taking place on the
roads of some of the counties in
other states on which examina-
tions were made, it was found
that in Lauderdale County,
Miss, roads built several years
ago and maintained from the
special fund have actually im-
proved since their completion.
The county roads of Franklin
County, N. Y, it was found, are
maintained with a contribution
| of SO per cent by the State and
under indirect State supervi-
sion. AS a result of this system,
the roads have been kept up to
their condition on completion.
While under provisions for
maintenance were on the whole
not satisfactory in the counties
of the other States in which
studies were made, this condi-
ton since has been remedied in
Virginia by the passage of al
State law providing that an an
nual tax of not less than 3 peri
cent of the amount of bonds is
sued shall be levied to provide a
maintenance fund or bond-built
roads. "
The existence of a regulation
tending to lessen damage to
roads and so to reduce mainten-
ance cost was revealed by the
studies in Spotsylvania County,
Va, where the county super
visors had passed an ordinance
placing a relatively low limit on
loads that may be hauled in
wagons fitted with narrow tires
and a considerably higher limit |
on loads for wide-tired wagons. |
AS result, most of the wagons
using the roads Of the county |
have been fitted with tires
ranging from 8 to 6 inches wide. |

RUMORS OF FLEET
 OF GERMAN SUBMARINES No Word Fros1 the British and French
 Patrol Vessels.

Boston, Oct. 8.-During the day no word came from the British and French patrol vessels that have been watching the 1sntic coast, from which vessels ol tl4e allies with muni- tions of war have daily set out. This afternoon a message was sent to Hal 1fax asking for the press information as to what was being done to protect British and French shipping from the submarine. The reply came that the British commander-in-c chief of the Halifax station, which is directing the patrolling fleet, was considering whether any statement by him was ad = visable.
 Many Rumors Afloat.
 Many rumors were af1oat today 1n- eluding one that fleet of German submarines were off the coast Anoth- CT had it that the Germans had estab- lished a submarine base on the Cana dian coast. Another speculation was that supply ships were cooperating with U-53. Those who held to the lat ter opinion pointed out that the sub marine after ostensibly crossing the Atlantic unassisted arrived at New port fully provisioned for three months and not requiring fuel or so much as a jug of water.
 Samuel Prey, New England agent of the American-Hawaiian Steamship company, whose steamer the Kansas, was halted today by a submarine, said tonight he had received no information from Captain Smith concerning the in- cident.
 The Kansas, which is under chart CT to the French Canada line was ex- pected to arrive here this afternoon. but changer her course in response to distress calls from the steamer West Point At one o'clock the Kansas mo- tified the Boston navy yard that she 1 was fifty-fve miles from the disabled s-te e.oT nd +oI 41 | five hours, travelling at a speed of 12 l knots.
 The Kansas left New York with a cargo of steel and was coming to Bos- ton on her way to Genoa to take on board big shipment of horses for the l allies

U-53 ANCHORED IN NEWPORT
 HARBOR FOR THREE HOURS
Slipped Out and Submerged Just In-
 side the Three Mile Limit

Boston, Oct. S.-The U-53, which anchored for three hours in Newport harbor yesterday afternoon while Com mander Hans Rose sent ashore corres- pondence from Germany for the Ger man ambassador Count Von Bern storff, and exchanged official calls with Rear Admiral Gleaves and Rear Ad- miral Austin M. Knight, commandant of the Narragansett Bay naval station, slipped out of the harbor and sub merged just inside the three mile linn it at 7.05 o'clock last night.
 Stopped an American Steamer
 At daylight today she turned up southeast of Nantucket and got in the way of the American steamer Kansan of the American Hawaiian company, bound from New York for Genoa by way of Boston, with freight. The Kan san was flying the American flag. She was stopped by the submarine at 5.S0 o'clock. Assured that the kansan was an American-owned vessel, the sub- marine later allowed her to proceed.
 Submarine Showed No coIors.
 Captain Smith of the Kansan re- ported that he had been stopped. in a wireless message to the captain of the Nantucket Shoals lightship. He said the submarine showed no colors but from his meagre description of. the warship, naval men were satisfied that it was the U-53.

 TO HAMPTON ROADS
l2OM. OFF CAPE HENRY
Passengers and Crew Take to Small Boats and Were Later Picked Up By the Guard Gutter Onondaea- Fire Under Control.

Old Point Comfort, Va, Oct. B. Radio messages received here tonight from the coast guard cutter Onondaga said that two tugs are towing the burning Ward Line steamer AntiIla to Hampton Roads and that the passeng- CTS and crew, which took to the small boats 120 miles off Cape Henry last night, are aboard the cutter which is conveying the tow.
 The message also asked that anoth- CT tug be sent out to assist in fighting the fire in the Antillas cargo of dunn Der and sugar. The cutters captain reported that he thought the flames could be brought under control if help were sent.
 Escaped in Small Boats.
 The Onondaga reached the Antil1a at 8:30 this morning in response to radio distress signals sent out by the liner early last night. The passengers and crew in small boats were picked up and transferred to the cutter.
 When picked up the AntilIa was some 120 miles off Cape Henry and she should arrive there about noon to- morrow, according to marine obseTv- CTS. The exact location or extent of the fire on the Ward liner is not known here.
 The coast guard cutter Onondaga reported tonight that the fire on the Antilla virtually was under control The matches were battered down the message said, but the services ot a tug were needed to finally extinguish the flames. Besides the Onondaga the yacht Pacifique and the steamers Morro Castle and Somerset are with the burning ship, whise passengers have been distributed to the cutter an6 the two steamers

Withdrawal of
 Rumanian Troops
IN THE REGION OF KRONSTADT, FOGORAS AND HERMANNSTADT
FLED BEFORE GERMANS
Austria Germans Have Recaptured kronstadt, the Most Important Com merciai City in TransyIvania-LittIe Change on Other BattIefieids.

On none of the various battle fronts in Europe has any material change taken place. Probably the most inn portant development is the forced withdrawal of the Rumanian troops in the region of -Kronstadt, Fogoras and Hermapnstadt in the face of superior forces mainly made up of Germans. In the operations the Austro- Germans again recaptured Kronstadt, the most important commercial city in Transyl- vania. In the Dobrudja region Of Ru- mania the Russians and Rumanians are advancing southward against the Teutonic allies, according to Bucharest.
 In Macedonia the contending sides have been engaged for the most part in artillery duels. A like condition prevails on the Austro-Italian front.
 On the western front in France the British rave captured all of the town of Le Sars and also made gains north and northeast of Courcelott and southwest of Geudecourt. The Ger mans have recaptured from the Brit ish portions of trenches that had been taken from them in the region north of Les Boeufs.
