ON The DANUBE
RUMANIA'S INVASION OF AUS
TRlA-HUNGARlAN TERRITORY
CONTINUES.
TURKEY DECLARES WAR
ZEPPELIN AND HOSTILE AERO
PLANE DROP BOMBS ON RU-
MANlAN CAPITAL.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
London, Aug. 31.-Rumania's inva-
sion of Austria-Hungarian territory
continues in the mountainous region
from Petrozseny, eighty miles north
Of Kronstadt.
On the Danube, from the Iron Gate
to Giurgevo, opposite Rustchuk, Bull
garia, there have been reciprocal bonn
bardments at several points by Aus
tro-Hungarian warcraft and Rumanian
shore batteries. A Zeppelin and
hostile aeroplane have dropped bombs
on the Rumanian capital.
Vienna admits that the Rumanians
are engaged with the Austrians in the
Gyergyo mountains, which shows that
off the northwestern front of Rumania
hostile forces have invaded Transyl-
vania some twenty-five miles. The
Rumanians also are near Koedzi-Vas-
arhely, about forty miles northeast of
Kronstadt.
While Bulgaria has not entered into
hostilities against Rumania, a news
agency dispatch says Rumania has de-
cided to send an ultimatum to Bull
garia demanding the evacuation OF
Serbia. A dispatch from CONSTANT.
nople indicates that Turkey has de-
clared war on Rumania.
In the Macedonian theater violent
fighting continues between the en-.
tente allies and the Austro-Germans
and Bulgarians. On the Struma front,
near Lake Doiran, batteries of the en-.
tente allies have violently shelled
Bulgarian positions.
Drama, in the northeast of Greece,
has been seized by the Bulgarians
after a fight with Greek troops, ac'
cording to unofficial advices.
An Albanian detachment under Es-
sad Pasha, has arrived at Saloniki to
aid the entente forces.
Berlin.-Turkish troops are advanc-
ing step by step in the Caucasus, and
have broken the resistance of the Rus
slams, who occupied dominating
heights, it was announced by the
Turkish war department. One Turk
ish detachment, it is said, found 1000
Russian dead on the battlefield.
Vienna.-The Austrian official COM
raunication admits that except north
east of Orsovo, on the Danube, near
the Iron Gates, where repeated Ruma-
nian attacks were repulsed, the Aus
tro- Hungarian forces have been with
drawn step by step from the frontier
In accordance with prearranged plans.

Russia Buys s1o,ooo,ooo War Muni.io,

New York-An analysis of foreign
trade at this port disclosed that s12,
596,659 of the S78,106,341 worth Of
American goods exported were sold to
Russia alone. OF this amount about
$10,000,000 represented purchas s OF
war material and the remaining ST.
100000 included harness, motor cars
miscellaneous machinery and general
merchandise. Exports to France were
s2,000,0OO greater than those to Rus
sia. but the Russian item is the more
striking one.

Eight-Hour Bill viii Prevent Strike

Washington, Aug. 81. - Railroad
brotherhood heads were obviously
pleased after a careful study of the
proposed bill to fix an eight-hour
workday for trainmen in interstate
commerce at present wages and for
an investigation of results by COM
mission. w. G. Lee, head of the train
mems brotherhood, made the unequiv-
ocal statement that enactment of such
law by midnight Saturday would
avert the strike.

Diplomacy would be more successful
if it were more truthful and frank. The
way some diplomats treat one an

brities did. Two celebrities, one slut

the deaf one had got on. "Oh, we got
on fine" he answered. 81 couldn't talk

According to the Akademische Rund-

Berlin, 54; Frankfurt, IL. Tine Tech

80 per cent of its students to war. Ger

The chestnut blight has already
done damage estimated as close to
$50,000000. The disease attacks both
American and European species, but
does little damage to those from Japan
and China. Plant breeders by cross
ing Japanese chestnut and native
chinquapin have produced resistant
trees Some of the Chinese chestnuts
are said to grow 100 feet high in their
home forests.

The same childish simplicity which
impels to the bursting into song

A number of new commercial enter
prises have recently been undertaken
in northeast Siberia. Many iodine
works have been established in the
neighborhood of Vladivostok, on the
shore of the Japanese sea, the iodine
being made from seaweed found there
in abundance. An interesting distil-
lery for ether has been opened, the
bulk of the ingredient being vioets
and iris blossoms from the Ussuri coun-
tryside. A good deal of amber is be-
ing collected from the beach along the
coast of the Premorsk and many new
salt workings have been opened in the
government of Irkutsk and in the Lena
hinterland in the vicinity of Viluisk.

Passions and excitements move the
dusky soldier easily, 1t is true. To
devotion to his officers, nevertheless
he adds pride in the service, ready
excellence in the drill and a perfect
willingness to follow where he is led.
To ridicule, as a reproof, he is most
sensitive. To the power of example
he is keenly susceptible. To none Of
his white comrades is the appeal so
effective as to him to perform for the
honor of his race.

If you are farmer, do you happen
to know how many kinds of grasses
there are? Five thousand! But out of
this great number man uses only 10
varieties, as rule, and only five Of
those are extensively cultivated. 1t is
a curious fact that while practically
every other farm crop has undergone
great changes under cultivation,
grasses are almost the same now as
when man first began to use them as
a wild plant.

The Importation of natives from
South Africa, in order to relieve the
shortage of agricultural labor in Eng
land, is proposed by A. ]. Fuller of
the South African senate, who is now
in London.
His scheme is to choose carefully Sc
lected individuals, who would be ac-
companied by trusted leaders of their
own, and he is confident that If men
belonging to widely known families
and holding responsible positions were
chosen, the experiment would be sue
cessful. He also proposes that colo
nists who know the natives and can su-
perintend them shall accompany them
from South Africa.
Mr.. Fuller speaks with knowledge
of the South African natives, having
represented a constituency with one of
the largest black populations in the
country.-London Globe.
The Colorado statesman., 1916-09-02

Happiness and the light heart are
among the general characteristics of
the black soldier. He goes about his
business singing. 1t is related that
during the Spanish war the colored
cavalrymen had hardly dug their
trenches at Santiago before their
smuggled musical instruments were
out and the camp was a medley place
of tunefulness. And there was a
white colonel of the Twenty-fifth who
was wont to boast of the chorus
singing which he had made almost
part of the regimental drill.

Seventy-six out of eighty-seven cases
of typhoid fever which occurred in a
recent outbreak have been traced by
the United States public health serv
ice to infected milk. Had the first
cases been reported to a trained
health officer the outbreak could have
been stamped out promptly. When
will we learn that disease prevention
is sure and cheap?-United States

The Colorado statesman., 1916-09-02

1t is not true that the highly edu-
Gated colored man has a contempt for
the ordinary activities of his race
any more than it is true of the white
race.

When the world would bewilder thy
mind, look up to the eternal heavens
where the stars never stray.-Ruckert.
The Colorado statesman., 1916-09-02

AS a matter of fact, there is more
democracy among the colored people
than among the whites. People of
good character and intelligence who
may be serving in some ordinary
capacity are more generally received
by their well-to-do colored brothers
and sisters than among the whites.
The highly educated colored person
is not nearly so unhappy as you pic
ture him, and he does not lack for
desirable associates. In the best
circles may be found people who are
the intellectual equals of any other
race. In these circles may be found
retired capitalists, ministers, lawyers,
doctors, business men, professors, edi-
tors, teachers, etc.-men and women
who have had the best training
America and Europe could give. There
are so many Of them that there are
several "sets."
The Colorado statesman., 1916-09-02

In his presidential address at the last
meeting of the South African Associa-
ton for the Advancement of Science
II. T. A. Innes called attention to
the large number of astronomical OBJ
servatories, some of them admirably
equipped, which are doing little or no
work, beyond, perhaps, maintaining a
time service or meteorological service
of local Importance. He stated that
''at least two of the observatories pos
sessing exceptionally large refracting
telescopes have not contributed one
months work from them in the last
20 years." At least 33 per cent of
the observatories listed in the Brit
ish nautical almanac publish nothing.
Take dissolved gum arabic and stir
in enough plaster of paris to make
soft paste. This is almost colorless
and acts excellently as cement for
china. In repairing very delicate china
or porcelain, tie the pieces carefully
in place with tape. 1t is then put in
to a saucepan of milk and the latter
is very gradually brought to boiling
point. Remove the saucepan from the
fire, but leave the china in it for about
six minutes. Lift out carefully and
place on a shelf to dry.
In world where nations grow and
decay, where forces change and popu-
lations become cramped, it is not pos
sible or desirable to maintain the
status quo forever. If peace is to be
preserved, nations must learn to ac-
cept unfavorable alterations of the
map without feeling that they must
first be defeated in war, or that in
yielding they incur a humiliation

Nashville, Tenn, affords an instance
of race cooperation that is most en-
couraging. A section of the city in
habited by poor people of both the
white and colored races was swept by
fire last spring. Over 1000 people
were left homeless.
The negro board. of trade was first
to take vigorous measures for relief.
1t gave its support to DIR. George e.
Haynes, who established headquarters
in the stricken neighborhood. and with
a band of volunteer workers from the
colored population of the city began
at once to organize temporary and per-
manent aid for the sufferers. White
citizens opened similar headquarters
across the street. The two agencies
met daily in their ministrations and
the white citizens were so impressed
by the efficiency of the negro organiza-
ton that they invited it to join forces
with them and centralize the work.
The invitation was accepted.
The immediate task being more eff
fectively accomplished by this coop
Grafton, the workers were encouraged
to plan for larger things. A call was
issued for the organization of per-
manent league to deal with social prob
lens. The response was most crafty
ing and the Public Welfare league
came into existence on basis that OBJ
literates the color line.
