VIOLENT ATTACK OPENS
Danish Government Charged With Act
Ing Hnatily In Selling West
indies.

LONDON, August 5.-some OF the
Dah'Sh conservative papers have
opened a violent attack upon the gov
eminent over the treaty with the
United States for the sale of tho Dam
ish West Indies. according to a Copen-
hagen dispatch TO the Exchange Tele-
graph Company. The National Tidende
says:
I'm a question Of such great import
ance for the whole nation. the govern
ment acted in a manner such as its
worst antagonists would not have be-
lieved it capable. Nobody but the
Danish government would have risked
such q course"
on tho other hand. Politiken points
out that Denmark several times at
tempted to utilize the islands. but her
efforts we're in vain. This PAPER says
that. under the present war condi-
tions. the islands might become a
danger TO Danish neutrality. and tina
it might be difficult for Denmark to
defend them from encroachment.

zine For October

Brimful of interest is the October
Popular Mechanics Magazine. Two
hundred and twerty-eight terse ar
ticles record the new inventions and
recent developments in science and
mechanics. This magazine is always
noted for its many fine illustrations,
and in this respect the October num-
Der is better than ever. Among the
war pages is remarkable series of
photographs showing the successive
steps in the capture and occupation of
a German first-line trench. An Amer
lean aeroplane, of unusual design, in
recent tests at Buffalo established a
new speed record. A full-page pic
ture of the craft is presented. Other
page views show the new bascule
bridge over the north branch of the
Chicago River; a public-owned power
plant proposed for Niagara; our sold
iers on duty along the Mexican bord-
err. some pieces of furniture which
show the trend in designing; several
of New Jerseys country clubhouses
and golf links; etc.
