it was defective in every essential of a

he declared.
Mr. Fowler gave as his opinion, and
quoted authorities who go so far as
to advocate. that if commissioner
would feel that he should quash an
indictment were ii on trial before him
as a Judge. then, as commissioner.
he should refuse to grant extraditioh.
He also touched strongly on the fact
that bribery was at the bottom of the
bringing of this Indictment and re-
GREETED that precedent prevented the
laying of proofs of this nature before
the commissioner.

diplomatic controversy between the leu

FORD PEACE ADVOvATES
START FOR STOCKHOLM
About Half the Party at The Hague
Departs-Almost Miss Passports
to Go Through Germany.

THE HAGUE, via London, January %,
o:25 a.m.-About one-half of the Ameri-

ton. who had remained at The Hague
departed yesterday for Copenhagen on
their way to Stockholm. The party
will travel through Germany. Among
those in the party were Nine. Rosika
Schwimmer, Louis P. Lochner and the
Office staff, totaling twenty-five.
Assurances were given to Nine.
Schwimmer and Mr.. Lochner by the
German minister that the party would
be permitted to cross Germany. How
ever, there is remote possibility that
they will be turned back by the mill
tary authorities. Passports. which had
been sent to the German consul a Rot
terdam to be vised, did not arrive at
The Hague until the train was pulling
out of the station. A messenger ran
down the platform yelling, Here are
the passports. An American reached
out of the window and grabbed the
passports or otherwise the party would
have been unable to cross Germany
Newspapermen Barred.
Mime. Schwimmer said that she had been
compelled to give the German minister
her word of honor that newspaper corre-
spondents would be prohibited from ac-
campaigning the party.
Among those remaining at The Hague
are Judge Ben b. Lindsey of Denver
Frederick Holt OF Detroit and Castor p.

sentative. When Rev. Charles F. Aked

REGULAR ARMY OFFICERS
ARE TO AVOID RIOT DUTY
Special Instructions Are Issued to
Those Detailed With Organ
lied Militia.

Regular army officers detailed to duty
with the organized militia have beer
specially cautioned against involve
plent in any question of politics, equity
or troops leadership which may arise
from the use of militia for riot duty.
ut is the policy OF the War Depart
ment" says Gen. a. l.. Mills, chief oil
the division on militia affairs, mot onl.
that no instructor should
take sides in any question of politics
equity or troops leadership involved il
the use of the organized militia for riot
duty, but that he should take no ac-
ton which might lead to the charge
made either directly or indirectly.
Not to Go on Duty.
I'm case the organized militia should
20 on strike duty, inspector instructors
should not accompany troops or be-
come involved in any way whatever
They should. however, report to this
office anything of military interest
that comes to their knowledge in re-
gard to the use of troops on riot duty.
The same instructions will apply to
sergeant and inspector-in
structors will acquaint them with their
duties in such cases.
The foregoing instructions do not
apply to the regular army officers
holding commissions in the organized
militia. In those cases the officer
will be guided by the law and regula
lions governing him in his status as
military officer"

GUNS NOT ALWAYS RELIABLE
Here's Proof That a Club Is Some
times a Far More Serviceable
Weapon.

Much is being said nowadays about
the precision and deadliness of modern
weapons of. warfare, but a West Vir-
ginian, according to a story sent out
from Moorfield, shows that such
weapons cannot always be depended
upon. 1t appears that a bear had been
feasting upon choice specimens Of a
flock of sheep until their owner, Mr..
Benjamin Whetzel, decided to have it
out with Br'er Bruin. So arming him
self with Il gun, he sailed forth in
quest of the sheep killer. Fortunate
ly his search was not in vain, for he
soon came upon the marauder and let
go with his gun.
1t is the unexpected that generally
happens in West Virginia, and it was
SO in this case, for instead of being
scared off by the bullet that had
plugged him.. the bear got mad and
rushed in to engage the man at close
quarters. Probably Mr.. Whetzel did
nothing is said about a second shot,
but he kept cool, and, being averse to
damaging his gun by whacking the
bear with 1t, he picked up a club that
happened to be Ia the immediate vi
cinity and used it with such effect that
Br'er Bruin was 5000 pummeled to
death. Nimrod himself could not have
done better.-PittsbWgh Chronicle

WARM WEATHER AND HORSES
Sunstroke Caused by Suns Rays FALL
ing Directly on SkuLI-heat
Exhaustion Similar.

(By PROF. O'TOOLE, North Dakota
Experiment Station.)
Sunstroke is caused by the direct
rays of the sun falling upon the skull.
A horse so affected may die suddenly
as though stricken with apoplexy or
he may have a gradual paralysis of
respiration. The symptoms which
usually present themselves are rest
~lessness, paving, Spasms and a marked
redness of the mucous membranes lin
ing the cavities of the head. The
temperature in sunstroke may not rise
above normal during the whole course
of the disease.
Another condition very similar to
sunstroke is that known as heat stroke
or heat exhaustion. This is brought
about by O~verexertion and insufficient
heat elimination. The direct rays of
the sun are not responsible for this
affection, which very often occurs to
an animal on a cloudy, sultry day.
Some of the more prominent symptoms
Of heat stroke are WEAKNESS, profuse
sweating, difficult breathing, an eX-
tremely high temperature, and a rapid
pulse, which gradually grows weaker
and upon the approach of death mus
cular tremors will be noted. The treat
ment for sunstroke and heatstroke
are the same. Remove the animal to
a cool, quiet, well-ventilated place,
and permit a stream of cold water to
flow over the horse and if possible
apply ice packs to the head. If Ice is
plentiful apply it all over the bedy.

COSTS MONEY TO FEED MARS
European Conflicts Have Been Extra
ordinarily Costly to the People
Who Paid for Them.

War cost Europe from the beginning
gust, 1914, about 65,0O0;0OO,O0 francs,
or not half of what the %belligerent
powers have already expended during
the present conflict, according to stats,
tics compiled by Edmond Thery, the
French economist, and published in an
article written to indicate the progress
sion Of the cost of war.
The IS years of var waged by Napo-
leon Increased the public debt OF
France by 5Ss,OOO,OOO francs, while the
Crimean war alone cost the republic
1,G60,000.000 according to Thery
Great Britain spent 1,550,OOO,O0O in the
Crimean, while that var cost Austria
343,0QQ,000, and Turkey and Sardinia
together e42, 1000. 900 frames. France
spent sse,ososeo0 francs en- the NeM-
can war, he says, and $4,000, 900 In
the conflict against Austria for the
liberation of Italy.
Prussia, in her wars against Den
mark and Austria, spent about 2,0O0,-
000,0 900 francs, while the German states
and France together spent about 49,
000,000,000 on the war Of 1870, includ-
ing 100000, 900 francs indemnity paid
by France to Germany. The war of
1S77-79 against Turkey cost Russia
about 2,7OO,O OO, 1000 francs, while she
spent $780, 900 in the war with
Japan as against 4,50O,O OO 1000 spent
by Japan.

Rural Typhoid.

Typhoid in rural communities has
been a death-producing trouble of
greater seriousness than typhoid in
cities, where sources of water are
more closely guarded and pollution is
prevented by public health officers. In
scattered country communities this has
been difficult. However, the federal
health authorities tackled the big preb-
lem and succeeded in reducing typhoid
deaths by removing the causes of wa
ter pollution. In Berkely county,
West Virginia, typhoid cases were re-
duced from 249 in 1914 to 40 in 1915.
In Orange county, North Carolina,
cases were reduced from SO to II.
It was found that typhoid was
caused in most cases by using water
from polluted wells and that the pollu-
ton came from sources that were cas-
lily stopped. Ignorance of, the causes
Of disease vas the great reason for
its previous prevalence. The officers
found that when the causes Of typhoid
were pointed out, there was general in
clination to remedy them.
