Alliance Head Praises hughes
for His Patriotism

Henry Weismann, president OF the
State German-American Alliance, de-
clared last night in speech at the
monthly meeting of the organization IN
Arion Hall, at Arion Place and Broad
way, Brooklyn, that the alliance IL
strictly American and viii not support
a movement TO segregate, IN polltlcal
campaign, the citizens of German STOCK
and raise an issue which cannot be dls-
cussed by and in behalf of all Ameri-
cans. .v.- -
"The German-American Alliance has
not been party to any movements or
conferences which sought TO organize
the sentiment of citizens Of German
stock for campaign work" said Mr..
Weismann. 1--WE have never permitted
anv man or set of men TO speak or act
for us. / protest strongly against the
injection OF racial issues into an Amer
lean campaign for the Presidency, but
| feel that Mr.. Wilson and his support
ars are largely responsible Tor the IN
lection of these issues into the present
campaign. They found their origin IN
Mr.. Wilson's personal infirmities oil
character and his lack of faith in Amer
ica's independence and strength and IN
the patriotism Of our people.
"Mr. Hughes is the very opposite OF
Mr.. Wilson. His splendid Americanism
is expressed in his speeches, and ne
has effectively disposed of the so-called
hyphen issue by insisting q at he wants
no vote unless it is given with heart
single in its devotion to America as
against any and every country. and TINS
a6plies not merely to the German, but
to the sympathizer with any other coun-
try in the war"

SEEING NO ISSUE,
IS FOR WILSON
]. M. Dickinson Praises
Hughes, but Will Sup
port President

Jacob VI. Dickinson, receiver for the
Rock Island road and Secretary Of War
under President Taft, yesterday an
nounced that he was supporting Presi-
dent Wilson because of the latter's
championship of good governmeneprin-
ciples, which appeal to the people at
large. Incidentally, he said that indi-
cations pointed strongly to the reelec-
ton of the President.
Mr.. Dickinson said that the person
atty, abilities and character Of Mr..
Hughes and his strength as a speaker
were beyond question. He added that
these could not compensate for the lack
of an effective political issue.
Herman A. Metz In statement he
left yesterday with Chairman William
K. Wilcox, of the Republican National
Committee, said:
81 am a lifelong Democrat, and as
such | support the state and local
Democratic tickets, which is the test
of regularity. But | am first OF all
an American, then a New Yorker and
then a Democrat.
81 feel that the Republican party
under Hughes will be more national
and less provincial, more provident and
less short sighted and more efficient
and less haphazard than the Demo
cratic party"

While nearly all the Governors replies

chamber, torn out when Charles T.
Hughes was Governor and restored by
Governor Whitman. -,
In regard TO the "secret staircase,

Foolish Man.

A Boston woman has won wager of $50 by promenading the principal streets of Boston, Providence and Wor- cester, wearing startling hand-paint- ed gown and hat and carrying hand painted parasol. Her venture was the result of a dare from Boston artist. She has given the money to the Red Cross relief fund.
 "You must not dare a woman to do anything, even if she is growing old" says this successful creature, "for she will do it, even if her husband should object"
 Here and there there may be hus- band who will wonder what that word "even'' is doing in this declaration of feminine intentions, but otherwise the sentiment will go uncorrected. Daring a woman is superfluous, redundant and superogatory piece of work. The gentleman gets off cheaply at $50.- Knickerbocker.- Press.

 His lawyer came and arranged for his care in this home until he could be safely removed. Was it he who divulged to the Lanes the mystery of their suddenly restored wealth?

The approximate speed of the ship can be determined by letting the line run off for, say, half a minute. The length of the line run off in that time gives basis for calculating the speed per hour. The log, during the experiment. remains stationary on the surface of the water, of course. This is the older method. A modern method involves the use of log with revolving mechanism which is dragged along In the water behind the vessel.

Step by step Bliss wrought out the tematically to restore to the account of Robert Lane every dollar that had been so unfairly wrested from him. Then Bliss sought to find the old mendicant. He shadowed him, when the old man, counting the coins he had Bliss was electrified to see him enter a florist shop and expend all his mon- ey for a bunch of roses.
 Bliss continued to follow him, even when Lane entered wretched tene- ment house. In his eagerness the ex- merchant left open the door of room in which lay beautiful girl upon a couch, his daughter, Inez, wasted with fever and in delirium.
 Bliss was thrilled at the pathetic wanderings of the sufferer. She was in fancy once more in the rose garden of their old home-the paradise that Max Bulger had stolen from them.
 From that moment there began In the life of this young man sole im- pulSe-reStitutiOn for the stricken Lanes, father and daughter. Myste- riously, for them, all at once a lawyer appeared who told them that there was likelihood of realizing some thing from the Bulger estate. There was removal to new living quarters, the services of a skilled specialist for Inez and then-oh! the wild joy of it -one day they found themselves in the old home, with money in bank. In fact, the restoration to old condi- tons, except for intermediate depri- vation and sorrow, was complete.
 It was a labor of love to Bliss to duplicate the old furnishings of the house as fully as possible. The day before the place was all ready for it's occupants, he was hanging a picture in the very room that was to be the boudoir of Inez Lane, when the step- ladder gave way. He was precipitat- ed to the floor, insensible. A sur geon sent for directed his removal tc the next house, as limb was broken,
