An Industrious Girl.

Miss Cleo Gentry, a sister of At

made a splendid record as a canning
club girl. Miss Gentry raised and
canned from one-tenth of an acre
enough tomatoes to pay her entire
expense for five months at Langdon
Memorial School. This Is a splen-
did record, but she expects to go a
little better this year and can
enough tomatoes to pay her way
through Langdon Memorial for a
full year. Miss Stewart, the princi-
pal, has agreed to take the full
years tuition in tomatoes, disposing

BEAVERS DAM A STREAM
IN OLD FASHION STYLE
Reappearance OF Work OF Little
Water Animals After
Many Years.

The beaver, an animal that was
supposed to have become extinct
many years ago, has suddenly made
its appearance in Hancock county by
damming up Blackford creek, a
stream of considerable size. Where
they came from is mystery, as one
has not been seen in that section of
the country in the last fifty years.
But for the curiosity of ten-year-
old boy their discovery might not
have been made. '.'' ~'r.'.
Joe Wiles, merchant and farm
er, of the Chambers neighborhood,
rented from his brother-in-law, Ira
Chambers, farm in the Blackford
bottoms, which is seven miles south
of Hawesville. Mr.. Wiles decided to
put the bottom land in corn and ac-
cordingly set to work to pillow up the
field. With him went his ten-year-
old boy, who, hearing the roaring,
made by the water running over
something, determined to investi-
gate.
Quietly slipping through the dense
underground, he made his way to
the creek bank, thence up the creek
a few hundred feet to the dam. Hur-
rying back to his father, he told an
excited story of what he had seen,
claiming to his father that someone
had put a dam in the creek. Mr..
Wiles decided to see what the boy
had found, when to his astonish-
ment he discovered a perfect dam
across the creek five or SIX feet high
and about forty feet long.
Willows had been cut along the
creek by these industrious little fell
lows. woven together and plastered
with mud in such a manner as to
make the dam watertight. A mason
could not have done a better job
with a trowel. The dam is all new
work, which shows that they have
not been there any great length of
time.
A drainage district has recently
been established in this bottoms,
but, as the new ditch will not go
near the old creek at that place. the
little beavers will not be disturbed,
but will be watched with much in
terest.

In Great Speech BY Ger.
man Chancellor.
He DRAWS GRAPHIC PICTURE
OF the Heroes Suffering and
Dying On Battlefield For
COuntry's Sake.
ADMITS PRESENT PRIVATIONS

Berlin, June ia profound SEN
sation has been caused by the great
speech made here befor ethe Reich
stag by Chancellor Won Bethmann-
Hollweg, in which he declared that
any further suggestions of peace by
Germany would be futile and evil.
His eloquent appeal to hold on
until victory was Theirs and the cat
eorical definance he hurled at Eng
land were greeted with thunders of
applause. At the conclusion sof his
speech the Chancellor received a
tremendous ovation, the cheering
being renewed again and again.
All parties Joined in the ovation
with the exception of the Conserva-
tives and the Socialists, who seeded
with DR.. Liebknecht.
The Chancellor appealed for the
unity of all parties, declaring that
political lines ought to be obliterat-
ed during the prosecution OF the
war. The conclusion of his speech
brought almost the entire house to
their feet in a wild outburst of en-
thusiasm.

CHARGES POLICE
HIRE STOOL" TO
FREQUENT CAFES
Atty. 1avery Says "Presi-
dents Fund" Pays For
Youths Activities.

That President John G. Stanley of
the police board has employed a stool
pigeon to procure evidence that will
lead to the conviction of saloonkeepers
allowing women to 1oiter in their
places and that the evidence seeker
is receiving a substantial recompense
from money appropriated as the
presidents fund.- was charged by
Attorney Hugh J. Lavery, while de-
tending Matt Weller, proprietor of a
saloon at Main and Congress streets,
in city court today.
The alleged stool said he was
formerly a steward on a. ship of the
neutrality-suspicious. line. He came to
this city two years ago. He said that
he has been doing detective work
for the police department here since
that time. He said he was paid by
the clerk of the police board.
Attorney Lavery was endeavoring to
show that the room was a restaurant
and that women went there for
luncheon. He admitted that lunch
had been served the women.
The t'stoo1' said the women used
foul language and they received soil
citations from men. He also said
some of them solicited.
He admitted escorting one of the
women from We1ler's place to the
Hotel Sterling at Sterling street and
Crescent avenue. He said he had
a few drinks there. He said he went
upon her solicitation. He said he
had been instructed to- get evidence

ter the place was cleared of frequent
ers.
The case was opened at 1870 and

Lexington Avenue
Folks Split Over
New Saloon License

Charges that. a rival dealer started
the "Reminiscences against Frand Della
and statements by citizens that it was
too much trouble to cross the street
to get a pail of beer, were heard by
the county commissioners this morn
Ing when they took testimony on the
renonstrance against Della, who
wants to transfer a liquor license from
7g7 North avenue to % Lexington ave-
nue..
There was a big array of witnesses
who favored Delia's application. Most
of them were property owners and a
hod carrier named Angelo Pierazz1o
said his property is worth $40, 600.
When Informed that there are already
i've saloons in one Lexington avenue
block the witness said street is so mud
dy he didn't like to cross the thor
oughfare to get his beer.
Leonardo Grasso declared none of
the i've dealers carry his favorite
brand so he wanted Della % open a
saloon.
The witnesses opposed to. the appli-
cation denied they had been inspired
by Sebastiano Scale, another Licking
ton avenue dealer. Charles Monetti
SAID the crowds in front of the sa-
looms at present blocked the sidewalks
so ordinary pedestrians had to walk in
the road. The commissioners reserved

FORTUNE IN WINE
FLOWS IN CANNON
STREET CUTTERS
Continued from page 1

when the truckman started to unload
a 164 gallon cask of wine imported
by the F. E. La11ey Co. of this city.
As the cask was being lowered from
the truck it slipped and crashed to
the sidewalk. The cask broke and
the street was red in a minute.
There was a rush of thirsty citizens
from all directions and all traffic
rules were suspended. The order to
use all exits in leaving Cannon street
was forgotten. One man held his hat
under the cask to catch the previous
drops and another filled a bottle from
the stream in the gutter.
In a short time nothing remained
but an empty cask and a fragrant. odor
which spread on both sides of Cannon
street without favoritisn. The value
of the wine was over 5000 and as the
truckman is bonded to the government
for the safe delivery of articles he
must pay the loss. The next time you
walk through Cannon. street carry a
couple of empty bottles for you never
can tell when wine may be opened
again.

to the removal of all papers and re-
fuse in cellars. Railways, landings and
yards.
..In the last three months members
of the Bridgeport fire department have
made many inspections of business
places and private dwellings and their
inspections kaye tended to disclose
much refuse accumulation that threat
ems to bring serious risk from fires.
Now that the cleaning up season
has arrived the department expects a
general removal of any litter that
would be a source of fire.
Attention is called to the fact that
there is an ordinance against the per.
hitting of refuse to collect in build
ings or in proximity to buildings. It
is not the intention of the department
to prosecute unless necessary but I'M

make effort to avoid fire hazard siren
uous steps will have to be taken.
{ .tIt is suggested that tenants be cau@
toned to cease placing their papers in
ash boxes as this practice is found to
create a number of fires every spring.
It is also suggested that property hold
ers have all ashes removed from barns

Remove Refuse and
Papers, Warning Of
Combustible Inspector

Fires, with recent inspections made
by the local fire department, have I'M
covered conditions of filth and care
lessness in Bridgeport which threaten
ed a continuance of the fire epidemic
unless immediate emergency measures
are taken.
1t is the plan of the fire department
to issue a warning asking all mer-
chants, tenants and owners of build
ings to celan up at once. If this is not
done prosecution is likely to follow.
Captain Thomas f. Broderick, in
spect0r of combustibles and fire risks
today sent out this warning to prop
erty owners and tenants:
Immediate attention must be given,
