 "A delayed telegram received from Vice Admiral De Robeck, states that on the night of May 1914 one of our small monitors, the M30. com manded by Lieutenant Commander E. L. B. Lockyer was struck by the enemys artillery and taking fire, was subsequently, destroyed. Two men were killed and two wounded.
 This information appeared in the Turkish communication yesterday and was officially denied as other mes sages had been received from the vice admiral two days after the oc- currence. As a result of further in- quiry, it was found that a message reporting the loss had miscarried."
 Interest in the war operations has shifted suddenly to the Italian front where the Austrians have begun to attack along the whole line, but par tieularly in southern Tyrol against the Italian troops threatening Trent.
 Here the Italian troops occupied positions just over the Austrian bOr der from the Adige Valley, south of Roverto, to the Astico Valley. The Austrian attacks cover a front of twenty three miles.
 The Italians admit their retirement of this front, and the latest official Austrian account claims continued gains. The character of several en- emy positions and the penetration of the Terragnola sector, the driving oi the Italians from Moschere and the storming of Zegnatorta during the night.

 From the same source it was learned that approximately three thousand de facto Mexican troops are encamped in Fronteras and Cuchuta, on the Ma cozari railroad, while approximately the same number are stationed in towns along the Babispe river, near the Chihuahua boundary.
 Within the last few days, he said. the commanding officers habe issued orders that no soldiers may leave the camp bearing arms, except by specific command or when they are going a great distance on military business. With this order came a decided change in the attitude of the soldiers who are far more respectable to foreigners than previously.

Good Old Homemade

Much Better than the Ready.

Cheaply Prepared.

If you combined the curative proper
ties of every known "ready-made" cough
remedy, you would hardly have in them
all the curative power that lies in this
simple "home- made" cough syrup which
takes only a few minutes to prepare.
Get from any druggist 21a ounces of
Pinex 80 cents worth), pour it into a
pint bottle and fill the bottle with plain
granulated sugar syrup. The total cost
is about sd cents and gives you q full
pint of really better cough syrup than
you could buy ready-made for $3.50.
Tastes pleasant and never spoils.
This Pinex and sugar syrup prepara-
tion gets right at the cause of cough
and gives almost immediate relief. It
loosens the phlegm, stops the nasty
throat tickle and heals the sore, irri-
tated membranes that line the throat,
chest and bronchial tubes, so gently
and, easily that it is really astonishing.
A days use will usually overcome the
ordinary cough and for bronchitis,
Group, whooping cough and bronchial
asthma, there is nothing better.
Pinex is most valuable concentrated
compound of genuine Norway pine ex-
tract, combined with guaiacol and has
been used for generations to break up
severe coughs.
To avoid disappointment, be sure to
ask your druggist for "21a ounces of
Pinex" with full directions, and don't
accept anything else. A guarantee of
absolute satisfaction Or money prompt

taking testimony on any facts which
may have been omitted.
Mr. Mackey says in his opinion that
the case is one in which a father
claims compensation, question on
which the utmost care must be exercis-

the young man killed gave his father
his envelope, but as he had attained his
majority the father had mo reason

by the father says Mr.. Mackey 1--WE
regard his contributions rather as a
gratuity and this fact did not create
in the faher any right to an award as

had refrained while in her company.
Perhaps. after all. Philip Hale had
not seen her escort. The puzzled look
in his eyes may have been caused
by wonder at her riding instead of
walking, to business.
But If he had seen cambridge,

call her criticism of his fathers part
