Life Of Prime Minister Of Aus
tria Instantly Snuffed Out
VIENNA EDITOR HIS ASSASSIN
Three Bullets Fired Into Head OF Kari
Stuerskh, Who Had Headed Csbi.
net For Five Years-Hsd Not Con-
vened Parliament Since War Began
His View Concerning Peace

Vienna. oct. 23.--Count Kari
/ Stuergkh, the Austrian premier, was
shot and killed while at dinner by
Ludwig Adler, editor OF Vienna
newspaper.
He was dining at the Hotel Melissa
und Schaden when the editor attacked
| him. Three shots were fired, al OF
which entered his head, the premier
dying instantly.
The assassination Of StuergHh was
purely political and was induced by
| his refusal to convene parliament, ac-
\ cording to the admission OF Adler,
shortly after his arrest.
Adler is an eccentric and super
radical Socialist. sometimes known as
the Eebknecht of Austria. =" He is
editor of Der Kampf. At first he de-
clined to reveal his motives. but al
ter being locked up he declared the
premier's political policies had led
him TO do the deed,
Adlers arrest was not accom-
plished without the wounding OF two
men who leaped at him after he had
fired on Stuergkh. He discharged
the two remaining chambers OF his
revolver at these men before Austrian
and German officers, with drawn
sabres, overpowered him. The wound
ed men were injured slightly.
While Stuergkh was one OF the most
distinguished and revered statesman
in Austro- Hungary, he had at no time
taken decisive part in the affairs OF
his nation except in purely domestic
matters.
Stuergkh was 81 years old and had
been for years a prominent figure in
Austrian public life. He achieved
note by the energetic part he took in
1908 and subsequent years in the
fight over Austra's educational sys-
tenn, eliminating in victory for the
advocates of the "Humanistic gym
nasium" to which Stuergkh belonged.
The count was born at Graz. lie
began his political career in 1891,
when he was elected to the reich
strath. Four years later he became
ministerial director in the department
of which he afterward became the
head. He resigned after the fall OF
the Windisch -Graetz cabinet. In
1909 he became minister OF education
and in 1911 assumed the premiership
OF Austria.
The Austrian parliament has not
been in session since before the var
The government has not called the
members together owing to fear OF
strife among deputies Of various
races.
One of the few occasions on which
the counts name has figured in the
American press during the war was
August Of last year when he was IN
teryiewed by an American CORE
spondent. He was quoted as having |
said that although some of the Teu-
tonic expansionists favored extreme
terms. he was sure the German gov
eminent and influential citizens would |
hold to moderate demands, thus has

HEPBURN IS DEAD
Prominent Iowan Served 20 Years in
Congress-Author of Famous
Hepburn Law

Clarinda. Iowa, Feb S.-Col Will
liam P. Hepburn, former member of
congress from this district. died here
Monday after a long illness.
Death resulted from kidney and
heart trouble. Mr.. Hepburn was near
death last November, but after a time
rallied and a few weeks ago was so
much improved that he thought seri-
ously of returning to Washington to
look after an extensive law practice
which he acquired after leaving con-
Sress. About a week ago his condi-
ton took a turn for the worse and
since that time he lost ground steadily.
Prominent Roosevelt Man.
Col. William p. Hepburn, although
twenty years in congress, became best
known throughout the contry during
the Roosevelt administration It was
he who framed what later was called
the Hepburn law, prohibiting rebates
and discrimination by railroads. AS
chairman of the house committee on
interstate and foreign commerce in the
first session of the Fifty ninth con-
gress he was the author of three acts
out of five, which the then President
Roosevelt afterward declared would
cause that congress to be memorable
in history because of its constructive
legislation. OF the five acts, four came
from Colonel Hepburn's committee
and three of them-the Hepburn law,

AMATEUR ARMY
To Enlist "SOIdiers" Through
Colleges and Y. Nj. G. A.
Estimates 100000 Youths and
25O,OOO Men Are Fit.

New York, Feb. S.-The Military
Training Camps association today an
nounced its plans for obtaining re-
cruits for military training camps in
different parts of the country next
summer by distributing circulars to
gra duates and undergraduates of col
leges, members of the Young Mems
Christian Association and CONNER
cial and professional organizations.
The association intends also to send
speakers to colleges and to the larger
cities and to organize local recruiting
committees.
The work will be done under the di-
rectiOn of a committee including
among its members several university
presidents. The committee declares
that there are in the United States
nearly one million young men who
become of age each year and that
$50, 600 of them are fit for military
training.
Between the ages of 10 and rs there
are more than 100000 men fit for
service. of whom it is estimated 200
600 are in colleges. The committee
believes there are 100000 business and
professional men who are fit for and
would be benefited by a reasonable
amount of military training and that
a considerable proportion of all the
men are ready and eager to equip
themselves for military service. az

WOMEN IN A ROW

Of creating sentiment against Presi-

of this state.
Why look at that telegram Miss
Vernon sent to the congressional union
in Washington. That showed for it
self her interests and her purposes"
Then DR.. Harding settled right
down to plain, unvarnished, under
standable Kansas language. For five
minutes she talked about Miss Vernon
in a manner that ought to provide
gossip for clubs and sewing societies
all over the state. That her position
might be quite clearly understood. DR..
Harding quoted a bit of local history.

been highly offended because of the
treatment which the women of Kan
sas received when an effort was made
to present the suffrage petition to
President Wilson" continued DR..
Harding. Why, goodness me, l won
der if Miss Vernon has forgotten her
recent experiences with the Kansas
Day club. I worked for an hour and
a half to get someone to handle Miss
Vernons resolution before the club.
The way those Kansas Day club mem
bers snubbed Miss Vernon was awful.
But Miss Vernon didn't say anything
about that. She took it just as polite

lieve that an appointment had been
secured with the president, that he
would receive us and we would be
welcomed in presenting. our petition.
They didn't know that Miss Vernon
was going it blind. Neither did they
know that she had called Secretary
Tumulty to the telephone nearly every
five minutes in urging the importance
of the petition.
why the whole thing just smacks
of politics all the way through. Think
of what Mrs. Monroe said when the
party was waiting for the president to
see them. She remarked that the wo-
men didn't mind the cold-it would
be hot enough in November. And
then that telegram Miss Vernon sent.
Slipped From Truth?
Just here Dr. Harding stopped as
she seemingly sought a perfectly gen.
tie and ladylike manner of telling Miss
Vernon that she had slipped and fall
en- entirely off the truth in her tele-
gram.
II just wonder who told Miss Yer
non all the things she put in that tele-
gram to Washington" said DIR. Hard
ing. Why l was told by two persons

Its all a scheme and a frame up

Kansas women ought to open their
eyes to the fact. Why send this wom-
