Jewish Soldiers Find David's Shield.

Jewish Soldiers Find DaVid's Shield
Lieutenant Colonel ]. H. Patterson'S
Jewish fighting unit-the Zion Mule
Corps-is unique since the days Of
the Maccabees. 1t was composed
chiefly Of Russian refugee Jews, who
fled from Egypt to Palestine to eS-
cape the terror of the Turk. There
they were armed with excellent
rifles, bayOnets and ammunition cap
tured from the Turks when they
made their futile attack on the Suez
Canal. The strength of the corps
was about 500, and the pack mules
for transport work-whOse eccen-
tricities are at the bottom Of many

corps badge was the "Magin David
an exact reproduction of the shield
David used when he went forth 10
fight Goliath of Gath, and by a Coz
incidence which in older days mlght
well have passed for miracle" the
Zionists found the original at Sedd-
el-Bahr, Gallipoli. The colonel
writes:
"While we were pulling down q
house and excavating the founda-
tons, we dug up slab of marble
with beautiful filigree design carved
round the outer edge of 1t, and in the
center, strange to say, was the shield
of David! The stone must have been
very, very old, and how it got there
Is q mystery. Perhaps it may nave
been taken from Solomon's Tempe

AUSTRIA INVADED
BY ROUMANIA
Vienna Admits Retreat Before
New Foe.
BULGARS WRECK BRIDGES
Russians Move Through New AIlys
Country to Cut Berlin constan-
tinopIe RaiIway-Greece to
Enter War Soon.

London, Aug. 30.-The Roumanian
army is advancing into Hungary. The
first important victory of the fifteenth
power to enter the European war is adj
mitted by Vienna in an official state
ment which says the Austro- Hungarian
troops, which claimed the advantage in
the initial clash with the new belliger-
ent yesterday, have been forced to re-
treat.
This announcement, coupled with a
statement earlier in the day that the
Bulgarians have blown up several
bridges across the Danube, indicates
that the rush of the Roumanians has
put the Teutons on the defensive at
all points. The blowing up Of the
Danube bridges is interpreted as
meaning that the Teutons have given
up all hope of an invasion of Rou-
mania and an advance across the Dan
ube against Bucharest and are con-
tent to put what obstacles they may
in the way of Roumanian invasion of
eastern Hungary, which is already
menaced by the Russian drive through
the Carpathians.
Russ Move on Buigars.
The power of the new offensive
against the central powers rapidly
gained strength, the entry of Russian
troops into Roumania with the pur-
pose of moving against Bulgaria from
this new direction, having further com
plicated the defensive task of the cen
trail powers. These Russian forces are
believed to be directed against the
railroad communication between the
central powers and Constantinople, the
cutting of which would be a terrific
blow to the Turks and would open the
way for land attack which is expect
ed to be the opening wedge in the task
of clearing the Dardanelles and open
ing direct water communication be-
tween Russia and the entente allies.
While these military developments
were in progress the situation assumed
added menace with the growing indi-
cation that the entry of Greece into
the war on the side of the entente is a
matter of days. A Copenhagen dis
patch declares that Germany is rap
idly preparing for such a development
and that Greek residents of Germany
are already beginning to leave for
their own country. The Greek minis
ter to Germany will be received in au-
dience by Chancellor Won Bethman-
Hollweg.
Check First Rush.
Berlin, Aug. 30.-Roumanian forces
estimated at 100000 men are trying to
batter their way through the passes of
the Pennsylvania Alps to overrun the
plains of Hungary.
German and Austro- Hungarian of
ficers. fighting side by side, have
checked the first rush of the Rou-
manians, which was undertaken be-
fore the Teutonic soldiers knew that

A NOBLE PLAN PROPOSED.

As the manufacturers of automo-
biles are probably more keenly and
deeply interested in keeping down the
price of gasoline than are even the
users of motor ears, it is no wonder
that they have watched with alarm
the steadily rising price of this fuel or
that they are seriously cogitating plans
for stopping the advance and turning
the movement the other way. Al
ready the cost of gasoline has led to
the laying up of many motor cars by
persons who before could barely stand
the expense of running them, and
doubtless it has prevented sales that
otherwise would have been made this
spring.
Like not a few other people, the
makers of ears are of the belief that
the present prices have other explana-
tions than the one given by the re-
iners-an increased demand created
by the war. For this belief there is
more than excuse, since VIII lie it is
true that the European armies are us
inc greater quantities of gasoline, it
also may he true that they are prevent
inc the use of as much of it, if mt
more, through their interruption of
private motoring for pleasure and bus
mess. So the builders of ears and
the dealers in them talk with conf
dence and Indignation about not i'm
possible plots and combinations to
keen up prices, and they vehemently
declare that they are going to prove
the soundness of their aecusati ms bv
themselves starting to make gasoline
and other petroleum products on a
large scale.
This, of course, they have the best
of rights to do if they choose, and can
raise the capital, and there is nothing
to prevent them from underselling the
trust of which they think themselves
and the public now to be the victims
That is, there is nothing to prevent
them if they demonstrate the ability
/ TO separate petroleum into its consti-
tuents more cheaply than can the pres
ent able and experienced handlers of
that precious gift of Mother Earth
A large majority of the country's in
habitants, and of the world s, for that
matter, will wish them success in their
enterprise if they undertake it.
They will be obliged, however, tc
contend with formidable rivals in a
field already thoroughly and sllillfully
] exhibited and pronbnri,s of "a ;I,,r
will not be wanting.

TO SETTLE ORE DISPUTE.
Board Of General Appraisers Met to
Discuss Old Quarrel.

KANSAS City, Mo, April l. - The
iong-standing dispute between the
government appraisers and the big
importers of ores as to the method of
appraisal will have thorough thresh-
ing out at a meeting of the full b, ard
of general appraisers now in session
here. The government authorities
have recognized the Importance of the
issue, since the value of ores brought
into the country annually amounts to
many millions of dollars. The metal
trade has long sought a revision of the
government appraisal methods, and the
Importers will be given n chance TO
state their case.
Recent advances in the scientific as
saying of lead bearing ores are re-
sponsible for a suit brought against
the government by the American
Smelling & Refining Co, and other
large ore and metal handlers for the
recovery of duties on importations
claimed to have been collected lille
gally. Other big concerns, like the
United States Steel corporation. the
Bethlehem Steel Co., and the metal
trade generally, are vitality interested
in having a settlement arrived at in
the assay dispute.

AMUSEMENT NOTES.
SEPTEMBER MORN NEXT.
Attractive Musical Comedy in Opera
House Next Monday, April 10

September Morn a brand new,
musical tumble of song and girls, comes
TO the Opera house Monday, April 10,
special matinee and night. September
Morn gets its title from the painting
of the same name which stirred up
comment from coast to coast, but it
is a clean play and pleases every
where. The story has to do with the
aspiration of Rudolph Plastric, owner
of an art studio, who claims to have
been the painter. OF course Rudolph
does not even know how to paint a
picket fence The model of Septem-
Der Morn is laid claim to by an act
ress who has instructed her press
agent to circulate the rumor that she
is the original. The ludricous mo-
ments when the two impersonators are
lodging each other and when a chesty
old army officer who has fallen III love
with the actress finds out that she is
a good friend of his wife s creates
abundant laughter. The scenery is
prettily designed and painted and the
costuming introduces the latest Paris
creations.
The company numbers within its
ensemble some fifty people. The dane
numbers are many, spirited, charming,
hlghly enjoyable and welcome, the
world s popular tango being intro
duced in various attractive forms
Dainty Ruth Wilkins is seen in
the newest dances now in vogue; the
popular Carl George, J. J. Patton,
Margaret Felch and Vera LaVere
also have important parts. Ar
thur Gillespie wrote the book and Tyr
les; Aubrey Stauffer composed the
music and Frank Tannehill, jr<, staged
the production, which comes almost
direct from the La Sale opera house,
Chicago.

THE Els S M A X E. r

The dressmaker is a female architect
who hangs clothes upon the customer.
She also hangs bill upon the Gus
toner 5 husband which leaves him in
a dizzy stupor for several days after
ward, but it is very poor sort of
husband who will complain about the
cost after his wife has been taken out
of the human stepladder class and con
verified into French doll.
The dressmaker leads a lonely life,
and most of them seem to be nursing
some secret sorrow. It is a terrible
thing to be a dressmaker and have to
fit tight mousselaine de sole we'd

who would breathe easier in a Mother

can be told from an isosceIes triangle

Home dressmaking is the kind
which looks like it. The tools used in
this work are a tape measure, wab-

Modern Embattled Farmers.
(New York WORLDLY

(New York Worldly
The strike of 5000 milk producers
in the Chicago district has an element
of novelty as showing the use by far
mers of the regulation methods of or
gained labor TO enforce Their de
mands. But it is the same old kind
of strike as respects the disregard of
the public s rights in the matter by
the strikers. The quarrel of the pro
dueers being wholly with the distrib-
uters, they proceed at once to punish
the consumers by dumping milk into
bitches to prevent dealers from OBJ
tanning it, and emptying ears in tran
sit.
This is perfect adaptation of the
methods of striking traction motormen
or other pubhc-service employees, and
shows how well the farmers have
learned the game. But while farmers
have as good a right as other people
to go on strike, their function as pro-
ducers of the necessaries of life i'm
poses obligations on them.
Altogether, the appearance of the
embattled farmer in his new role
is not greatly to his credit.

One of the matters to be considered
by the International High Commission,
now in session in Buenos Aires, is the
proposed adoption Of the metric sys-
tenn by the Americas in international
commerce. AS it is, there are varying
systems and varying standards.
Weights and measures of one country
have to be translated into the stand
ards of another, and the process is
cumbersome and time wasting. The
metric system uses a convenient null
tiple, its adoption would be easy in
any country, and it would greatly IA
ciGtate trade calculations-so its advo-
Gates claim. The United States bureau
of standards has issued report on the
subject, which will be considered by
the International High Commission this
week. The United States is represent
ed at the hearings by Secretary Of the
Treasurey McAdoo and a group OF
prominent business men.

party in New York, where Root, the
ablest man in public life, and Roose-
welt, the most remarkable American,
shook hands after years of enstrange-
ment. Some guessers think that it
meant campaign to nominate Gen.
Leonard Wood for the presidency. The
Spanish-American war made Roosevelt
politically, and brought Wood from an
officer in the medical corps to the head
of the army. Roosevelt is usually
thought of in connection with that
brief war as the commander of the
Rough Riders, but he went into the ser
vice as lieutenant colonel with Wood
in command of the regiment. Roosevelt
has always had a great admiration and
friendliness for Wood, and it may be
possible that he would be willing to
support the general as a dark horse
candidate to beat Wilson.

hope in the final triumph of the ght.
Every year thousands of blue den N
imonos are made by this process, and
fit everywhere except around the
neck. If it were not for this kind of
competition the dressmaker would be
able to go to Palm Beach every winter
and might occasionally revel in the de-
lights of a soft-boiled egg.
Dressmaking in the large cities is
done mostly by titled foreigners
whose time is not worth over SO a
linear foot. They do not make any
thing but gowns, frocks and smosks,
which are not worn in the west by
anybody but the hired man. After
a New York husband has paid for
three or four lightweight summer
smoeks, heavily charged with crinoline
and Fifth Avenue overhead expenses,
he will decide to remove farther up
town, where his wife can wear the
same dress twice without being looked
upon as a hardened criminal.
Dressmaking has done a great deal
TO make husbands more contented
with their wives, and on that account
should be INDUCED in now and then,
but not to excess.
