CENS0R'S EXHIBIT
REVEALS DEVICES
Watch Dogs Of British Mails "Interne7
Many Curious Packages-NOst OF
Exhibits From America.

LOndOn.-COrresp OndenCe OF the AS
ISOLATED Press. 1.-THE most interesting
museum IN London is not open to the
general public. 1t is the museum Of
the censor and contains a collection of
most curious exhibits which represent
attempts that have been made TO evade
the British naval blockade since the
outbreak OF the war.
Nest of these exhibits come from the
United States where thousands of peo-
pie of German extraction have dis
patched all sorts of useful things to
friends and relatives in the Father
land. Many of the exhibits indicate
the pains and ingenuity of the senders;
in some instances they made a pound
Of lard look like copy of the morning
paper or a packet Of pure rubber like
a bundle OF narcissus bulbs.
i side of bacon weighing 40 pounds
is mute evidence OF the attempt made
by a ST Louis man to asSuage the
hunger of some friends or relatives in
what was undoubtedly his former home
town In his anxiety TO get the bacon
TO Germany this man sent it by first
class mail and attached stamps to the
bacon itself TO the value of nearly So.
There are many other instances in
which the stamps on the packages by
far exceed the value OF the contents.
Many parcels have duplicate covers.
They are addressed TO someone in a
neutral country, whose business II is
to pull off one cover and repOst them
TO the German or Austrian address re-
vealed below.
An enterprising Buffalo man sent a
large number of letters each contain
ing 2 sheet of pure rubber. Rubber
commodity in Ger
many for more than a year and efforts
have repeatedly been made to get
through the blockade all sorts of these
articles. Once in Germany the rubber
would be sent to a central depot where
il ultimately would have emerged as
rubber tires.
This cenSor's museum contains huge
bundles of newspapers or what APP
peared at first glance TO be news
papers. Closer inspection reveals that
the neatly rolled ends are but cleverly
made plugs of paper and wood. When
one OF these plugs is pulled out there
is uncovered a long sausage-shaped
bag of calico containing anything from
sliced ham to Para rubber, from rice
to tobacco.
Two iron crosses are not the least
interesting of the exhibits. They are
the original dIllC4o anu
sent from Germany TO a child in the
United States. The constgner was
maker of the crosses, the head of the
firm that supplies them 70 the German
government. and in an accompanying
letter he suggests that the recipients
wear them.
Shoes are the most numerous OF the
exhibits and most of these come from
the United States. In several cases
thew are wrapped carefully in piece
OF best sole leather.
All these things. neatly laid out and
ticketed, are merely samples of large
contraband cargoes that have found
their way into the hands OF the British
authorities. They are not confiscated
but will some day get to their proper
destinations. only at present the Brit
ish government has ''interned" them.

they have broken up a band of boy
bandits and put a stop to a virtual cpl
demic of petty robberies that have been
staged in the last month
The lads were arrested Sunday after
completing an all night session of
plundering, committing three rob-
berries, according to the police. A con-
fectionery store in Moline, operated by
John Giles, a grocery conducted by
William Kahlke, at 1871 Eleventh
street, Rock Island, and a garage and
repair shop belonging to H. G.. Walters
of~Milan were the victims. At no
place was any money secured. At the
confectionery and grocery, cigars,
cigarets, tobacco and candy were TAX
en- and automobile tires, tools and &C
cessories were stolen from the Milan
garage.
The lads were arrested at o'clock
Sunday morning after driving into
downtown garage. Most of the loot
was still in the machine. When they
were placed under arrest and ques-
toned they implicated another lad, by
| the name of Ed Wertz of Davenport
! The Davenport police were notified
and the youth placed under arrest. He
| is said to have admitted his part in the
work and brought forth a portion of
the booty. This was brought with him

ton to returning here for trial. The

The French, between the Somme and
the British right, under the protection
of an amazing hurricane of shell fire,
cooperated in brilliant advance.
From a hill the blue of their soldiers
and the khaki of the British could be
seen side by side as they charged and,
as the trenches were taken, the green
figures of the Germans filing back to
the rear as prisoners, completed the
spectacle under an unbroken stream OF
shells overhead.
The guns were so thick behind both
the British and French infantry and
their action was so furious that it ap-

FRESH IN MIND
Temple Ceremony Is a Relic of An

Kingdom.

Toxic, neutrality-suspicious. of
The Associated Press.) and
historic services of ancient Japan in
which virgins took an impressive
part have Just been hel di nconnec-
ton with the reconstruction of the
grand shrine at Ise dedicated to
Amaterasu Omigami, the grand ances-
tress of the Japanese empire, who, &C
cCrding to tradition, dwelt in the heav-
emily regions The sacred temples are
reconstructed every % years and the
time has now arrived for their re-
placement.
The recent ceremony was that Of
laying the foundation of the tempo
rary shrine which will shelter the
sanctuary of the outer temple during
the work of reconstruction of the
main building. There were two serv-
ices, one in the morning and another
at midnight, and they were conducted
in the presence of Prince Taxa Kuni,
the grand prelate of the shrine, and
many officials and Shinto priests.
When the Shinto rites for purifying
the land were concluded Prince Taxa
Kuni, acting as the personal messen-
ger of the emperor, worshipped at the
main shrine and food offerings for
the spirit of the ancestral diety were
placed on the altar. The food was
! subsequently removed and buried on
the lot at the four points Of the COM
/ pass Then a group Of virgins dress
! ed in pure white robes with deep pur-
! pie 'hakama," performed the rites of
| cutting the shrubs and moving the
| grass with sacred sickles. The cere-
mony at midnight was similar to the
morning ceremony, with the differ
/ ence that the rites of moving down
the shrubs and grass were replaced
/ by the telling of timber-to be used
| for the sacred pillars of the tempo
rary shrine. Here, also, virgin OFF,
ciated. The night spectacle was sub
/ lime The surrounding forests were
illuminated with thousands of faring
| torches.
The grand shrine OF Ise occupied a
prominent place in the court cere-
monies Of last year when Emperor
Yoshihito was consecrated as ruler of
the empire of Nippon. They are visit
ed by the emperor and empress only
upon the occasion of the conservation
or accession, but imperial messengers
are dispatched here every year, to
pay homage to the deity. The shrines
are held in special alteration by the
whole nation. Half million pilgrims
go there to worship every year, for
Ise is the Mecca of Nippon. Every
orthodox japanese plans to make a
pilgrimage there at least once in his
| life time.
The strength of the national rever-
ence for the shrine at Ise was tragic
ally manifested in 1889 on the very
day that Emperor Mutsuhito promul-
gated the constitution. Viscount

that while visiting the shrine of the
Sun Goddess he had shown lack of re-
spect by lifting one OF the curtains
held to be "sacreligious and unpar-
| with his walking stick. The deed was
donable because il menaced the sacred
foundation and divinity OF the Imper-
ial Japanese house" To this day the
assassin's grave is decorated by adj
miring Zealots. The act attributed
TO Mort has never been proved.

ARCTIC CIRCLE HAD
BIT J OF HOT SPELL

Stockholm. - Correspondence Of
The Associated Press.) -Travelers re-
turning from the north this summer
are complaining of the intense heat
prevailing at the southern edge of the
Arctic circle.
Travellers to Russia, who have had
TO make the journey by rail all the
way around the Gulf OF Bothnia, say
thew have suffered intensely from the
heat while on the northern reaches OF
their four days trip.
At Haparanda, where passengers
transfer from Sweden TO Finland, the
emperatures this summer have
ranged from 10 TO 20 degrees warmer
than here in Stockholm, several hun
drad miles 10 the south. This differ
ence is of course attributed 10 the
longer hours of sunshine prevailing
in the north, Haparanda being but a
short distance from the zone Of mid
night sun.

facture Of the materials Of war, who
appear to have d gentlemen's agree

tracts between themselves and be-
tween whom there is no competition
worthy OF the name. I do not see how
it is possible for congress to justify
to the people a refusal TO erect d gov
eminent plant said Secretary Daniels
to congress, nor how it can answer
the charge that will invariably be
brought up-that the same mysterious
providence which saved this profit

money for a government plant had
actually been appropriated, is not still
at work exercising its benehent pro-
lection over these lusty specimens of
infant industries, who are even now
under government investigation as
violators Of the antitrust law.
1t is argued by some who oppose
government manufacture as q pOncy
that the government should give TO
private manufactures contracts IN
time Of peace in order that they may
be relied upon for patriotic coopera-
ton in time of war.
But what are the facts? When war
with Spain was imminent the three
concerns in this country which have a
monopoly of the manufacture of armor
plate got together and practically is
sued an ultimatum TO their own gov
ernment. the United States govern
ment, that they would not manufac-
ture a single piece of armOr plate un-
less we should agree to pay them 500
ton more than the price fixed by
congress after an investigation as to
fair price But their patriotism did
not prevent them from selling armor

LESS MEAT IF BACK
AND KIDNEYS HURT
Take glass of Salts to flush Kidneys
if Bladder bothers you-Drink
lots of water.

Eating meat regularly eventually pro-
duces kidney trouble in some form or
other, says well-known authority, be-
cause the uric acid in meat excites the
kidneys, they become overworked; get
sluggish; clog up and cause all sorts of
distress, particularly backache and mis-
cry in the kidney region; rheumatic twin
ges, severe headaches, acid stomach, con-
stipation, torpid liver, sleeplessness,
bladder and urinary irritation.
The moment your back hurts or kid
neys aren't acting right, or if bladder
bothers you, get about four ounces of
Jad Salts from any good pharmacy;
take tablespoonful in glass of water
before breakfast for few days and your
kidneys will then act fine. This famous
salts is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia,
and has been used for generations to
flush clogged kidneys and stimulate them
to normal activity; also to neutralize the
acids in the urine 80 it no longer irri-
tates, thus ending bladder disorders.
Jad Salts cannot injure anyone;
makes a delightful effervescent lithia-
water drink which millions of men and
women take now and then to keep the
kidneys and urinary organs clean, thus
avoiding serious kidney disease.
