The Need of Reporters.

Why can't every church. school,
lodge, club and every other society in
our community have a reporter of it's
own, whose duty it would be to see
that news regarding it was sent to the
papers. There is not church, school
or other organization that does not
have real, interesting happenings every
week, and if these were reported the
local papers would be full of interest in
every issue.

to their homes in the rest of this zone will in due course, suffer the same fate.
 The latest lot of fugitives, men, women and children, fled through the barbed-wire entanglements of the first German barrier in order to escape the eve bitterer want reigning in their village. It was a sad sight, these penniless and homeless people who arrived in the market square in their wagons, there to apply to the Dutch police for temporary shelter and for ticket enabling them to proceed to one of the Belgian refugee camps in this country.
 The immediate reason for their eX- patriation was that for a fortnight past the Germans have refused to al low any further food to be brought to this region prisoned between their 2 l formidable barbed-wire fences, while from the Dutch side practically noth- l ing could reach the villagers.

BERGEN-OP-ZOOM, in Netherlands, April 7.-Sev- eral recent indications point to the fact that the Germans in Belgium intend to entire ly clear the region immedl- ately next to the frontier of its inhabitants, with a view, presumably, to further facili- tating their strict control ot the Dutch boundary.
 They have aleady evacuated the strip of country situated between their two barbed-wire fences in a part of flanders, and the arrival here of many refugees from the Belgian village of Putte (situated just north of Antwerp), strengthens the view generally held in the frontier districts that the people who have so far stuck

ONE RESULT OF THE WAR

A delightful old lady of little town in Nebraska was discovered one morn ing in the act of killing chicken.
 ''Why, Mrs. Brown, I thought that you were afraid to kill chicken, :" said a neighbor in surprise.
 "Yes, deary, I did useter be, but since the war broke out I've done it right smart"
 q don't just understand you; what does the war have to do with it?"
 Well, you see, it's this away: l useter think that bloodshed was an awful thing, but since I've been read ing about all them men-killin's in Europe I just got a rooster by the feet, lay his head on the block and say to myself: Now, Sarah, 'tain't near so bad as killin' man; where's your nerve?' And then I just shut my eyes and whack."

WE CANNOT RESIST
 THE GALL OF TEN IS

Thursday, April 18th, will be circus day in Yuma, for John Robinson's Ten Big Shows are advertised to give afternoon and evening performances on that day and date.
 The circus possesses an irresistible charm for old and young, age, sex, caste, or color, notwithstanding. There is something about the circus that sends ones blood a-rioting through ones veins. Early in the morning the sight of the huge wagons being drawn by four, six and eight horses, that car " the paraphernalia; the ponderous elephants and other strange beasts, as they are taken from the railroad trains to the show lot, fascinate and interets as nothing else can. If we can get the time and opportunity, we 20 out to the show lot and watch the circus men build the great tents. Then, when a parade is given, we find ourselves pushing eagerly thru he thronged streets and walks, intent 0n catching a view of the spectacle. We see a large band, in lustorus, carved gold wagon. We cannot tell | why, but there is that about the music | which thrills us more than the har- monies of Sousa band or Boston Symphony orchestra; we catch a nice | glimpse of the lady snake charmer in glass cage, and as hse carelessly plays with the slimy monsters, shiver goes over us and we turn our heads to look at the next number in the pa rade, which number may be a bea4tt | full tableaux or den of ferociouS | African lions; along comes an ele- phant or camel, and, although we have seen many of these strange beasts be- | fore, we view them with fresh inter est; a tableaux, illustrating "Jack and the Bean Stalk" passes, recalling the mature minds the happy childhood days spent in the nursery or on grand mas knee; another band and more | thrills; the panorama of pegeantry discloses a clown-a foolish-looking fellow, with face white and vermillion, and peaked hat, riding a donkey or seated in a queer cart and driving the animal-and the old folks laugh at him as heartily as do the children.
 Finally, the last vehicle in the pa rade is passing A big man, seated Thigh upon the wagon, beside the driv- Ter, calls out, in stentorian tone which can be heard above the din and noise tof small boy and his squawker and the street fakir selling balloons:
 Don't miss seeing the great free show at the end of this parade. Dare Devil Dewey, in his wonderful high dive, from an altitude of one hundred and fifty feet, into shallow tank of
 water"
 The heavy wagons rumble on, fol
 lowed by a crowd of small boys Many
 of us find ourselves drawn irresistible along after the departing pageant, to- ward the circus lot. Some of us go
 to the show grounds and others of
 us get some dinner before we go. But
 all roads lead to the circus grounds
 and eventually we all wend our way
 thither, drawn by an irresistible mag
 net. Maybe the magnet is a child,
 "I had to go and take Willie, you know; or, maybe it is "the call of
 the big white tents."
 At all events, we eventually arrive
 on the show grounds and help augment
 "the motley throng."

CALIFORNIA AND WASHINGTON
 CONTEST WITH S-OAREO CREWS

And while this standard 0f values varies, an equitable tariff betV cen the two empires continues impossible and tariffs Would be only illusory.
 Germany loaned Austria Hungary in 1914 and 1915 eight hundred million marks ($2OO,OOO,OOO to pay varicIs Austro-Hungarian state orli- cations. Besides there were numerous private loans, aHj it was hoped that this wou'G tend to restore the equilibri- um between the two curren- cies. But it failed to .io so. At the end of last month tie Austrian crown had deprec.- ated so greatly that for l20 marks, 151.5O crowns had to be paid, instead of the nor nal 117.80 crown in peace times.
 During the recent visit of the German Minister of F. nance, Dr. Helfferich, in Vii enna, a new Austro-Hungari- an loan was arranged when a number of German banks agreed to advance Austro- Hungary 200 million marks S5O,OOO,OOO) for January a d February, and additional
 sums later. This sent Up the value of the crown somewhat but it still varies below lS per cent of the rate n paace times.
 But so long as the standard of the crown in relation tc the mark is not rendered stable, and the new AuSgleich between Austria and Hun
 gary is not perfected, all at tempts to bring about the new great Central European
 political and economic unior will be in vain.

CENTRAL POWERS TO FORM ECONOMIC
 UNION

NegOtlarlOnS DelWeeH OeI- many and AuStria-Hungary for a closer political and eco- homie union are proceeding very slowly. Several confer enceS have been held in Der lin, Vienna, Budapest, Ores den, Munich and Prague, but no definite results have been attained.
 It is not only that these countries have certain con- flicting interests, but there are special obstacles in the way also. Austria and Hun gary have a common foreign policy and common army and navy, but in other re- spects are independent states.
 Various matters, and eSpe- cially the tariff question, have to be arranged from time to time by means ot what is called the 'Ausgleich or joint agreement. This is usually made for ten years and the present Ausgleich ex- pireS at the end of 1917. Ii has never been easy to renew this arrangement each time it expires, as the Hungarians have always sought to wiring some new political conceS- sionS from Austria. One powerful party in Hungary even demands the introduc- tion of a tariff barrier be- tween the two halves of the monarchy, in order to bolster up new industries.
 To form a lasting commer. cial union with Germany Austria now demands tha the Ausgleich shall be made for a term of twenty-five years, but the Hungarian; fear to tie themselves up witr their induStrially stronger partner for so long a time They argue that it will keel open the present free customs relations between the tw, countries for too long 2 time and then, too, they vii! l)st the opportunity of gaining new concessions each decade
 It has been officially stat ed that the pending negotia ions for this extended tern have been prOvision2lly cUil cluded, but on what materla basis is not mentioned. Blu lis only possible to c0nciud
 rtFing like a lasting unioi between the two great Gen +ro1 Furnne9n Powers WheI tfe longer Ausgleich betw@el Austria and Hungary ha been definitely seFtled.
 Another and very power ful technical obstacle in tn way of this projected eco homie union is the adjust ment of the present deprecia ton of Austrian currency The Austrian crown is no only like the German mark below it's ordinary value i relation to the standard i neutral states, but it has alS depreciated in it's relation f

SEATTLE, Wash, April 7. eight-oared crews of Stanford and Washington Universities race today on Lake Washington in the first test of relative oarSmanship for 1916. It is the first time too, that the placid waters of Lake Washington have beer rippled by a Stanford shell in many a day.
 Both crews will take part later in a regatta on San Francisco bay.
 Veterans oppose veterans in today's race-six in the Stanford shell and five in the Washington boat. Appar ently the California oarsmen have the advantage in experience but offsetting this is the Washington University record of perfect oarsmanship.
 The crews are almost evenly match ed in average weight and gross bur- dens in the shells. The Washington average is 176.7 pounds to the man with a live weight burden in the boat of 1,529 pounds Stanford over-shad- ows this slightly with an average weight of 177.6 pounds and gross burden of 1,534 pounds. Few men in either shell measure under six feet with the cOXswains eX cepted, while each shell will carry young giant measuring feet four inches tall.
