Asks Prosecution of Editor.

Petrograd, Sept. 15.-The patriotic
anti German Society of 1914" has
petitioned the government to prose-
cute the extreme right leader, M.
Bulatzel for high treason, he having
striven, it is alleged, to SOW discord
in the ranks of the allies.
NJ. Bulatzel edits the Black Hun
dred Weekly, the Russky Grajtanin.
In the last number he wrote an ar
ticle on Mr. Asquith's declaration con-
cerning bringing to book those re-
sponsible for international crimes,
whatever their position. On the
ground that the declaration was di-
rected against the kaiser, the article
contained scurrilous diatribe
against Great Britain for planning
tribunal such as sentenced to death
Mary, Queen of Scottss. and Joan of
Arc" In two years of war, continued
the article, the British army had ad-
vanced only few hundred yards, and
the task of bringing in the prisoners
was therefore presumably to be i'm
posed on Russia.
According to Mr.. Asquith, head of
the English Freemasons," the diatribe
went on, the war was not to end
when the time came for Russia to
conclude an advantageous and honor
able peace, but when the Hohenzoll-
ern dynasty had been laid low by
Russian bayonets.

a Complete Illusion.

l.. d. Rickey Of this city has really
the greatest novelty at the county
fair. It is called the human spider
and IS designed just to show visitors
how their eyes lie to them. Until
IL is tested no one can tell Just how
big prevaricator the eye can be.
Within a few feet of you in the Rick
cy tent you will see the head Of a
man protruding through the body OF
an artificial spider You can see
plainly back of him. under him and
on all sides. yet the body OF the man
cannot be seen. II is as complete an
Illusion as one could imagine.

Mosquitoes are getting to be a nuis

the fault is all with the property own
er who has allowed a lot of empty
cans to accumulate and fill with
water and pools of stagnant water to
form on the lots, also the weeds are
responsible in no small measure for
the prevalence of the pests. Last
night Jack Wright travelling passen-
ger agent of the Santa Fe was in the
city and stated this morning that the
pests here were worse than they
were in Galveston or Houston.
The city health department have
been doing their best with a limited
force TO keep the city clean of rub
bish and weeds. but unless they have
the cooperation of the citizens it is
going TO be a hard matter to elimin-
ate the nuisance altogether.
Living as we do in the midst al
