Artificial Rain-control.

The electric theory of rain rests up
on strictly scientific data. Wherein 1t
differs from the old schemes of shock
ing the air by dynamite explosions
with the vague hope Of thus inducing
condensation of moisture; or of build
Ing great fires with the expectation
that the rising currents Of heat and
smoke will somehow serve to condense
the atmospheric vapor. The failure Of
these schemes. which never command
ed the support Of leading scientists,
have hitherto brought the whole sub
Ject of artificial rain.control into dis
repute.

BETTER TEACHERS FOR

the rural teachers for the country Qt

The average scholarship Of this class
OF unframed teachers is little more
than an eighth grade education. There
are $4,000 one.teacher rural schools
In the United States. II is conserva.
tive, therefore, to say that there are
10000 rural teachers in this country
With only an elementary education
ana no professional training There
is one state in the Union that has over
1000 teachers, with only seventh
grade education and no professional
training. In charge OF its rural schools
this year There are several states
that number their rural teachers IN
this class by the thousand and there
are many states that count their rural
teachers in this class by the hundred.
Another third OF the rural teachers
Of the United States have only a i'm

is not above the tenth grade, that Is,
two-year high school education be-

third OF the rural teachers OF our

four.year high school education which
includes from one to two years attend

It is the purpose OF the Bureau of Ed

DE SAULLES SUED
 BY CHILEAN WIFE
Famous Yale Football Captain AC- Cused by South American Heiress

New York, July 2S.-The romance of the Yale quarter back and the Chilean heiress, which has won them much notoriety in the past, came to an end publicly yesterday when Mrs.
 Blanquita Erazzuriz de Saulles filed suit in the Supreme Court for a di- vorce from John Longer de Saulles, captain of the Yale football team in 1901, close friend of President Will son and member of the real estate firm of Heckscher & de Saulles at Fifth avenue and FIfty-seventh street
 The filing of the suit brings to light the fact that MT. and Mrs de Saulle5 have been separated for some time
 and that Mrs. de Saulles came hero recently from her home at Valparaiso, Chile, for the purpose of arranging for the divorce action. While the pa pers in the case are sealed, it was learned that Mrs. de Saulles names two correspondents, described as women unknown to her. The acts of misconduct are alleged to have oc- cured In several cities in the last few months. It is understood that one or the women involved is young

EXCESSIVE MEAT EATING

Most people who are troubled with t1atulency eat more meat than is good for them. Flatulency is wind on the stomach. Excessive meat eating or de- fective nerve force is responsible in most cases.
 Cutting down the amount of meat in your diet and taking course of treat ment with Dr. Williams Pink Pills to strengthen the weak nerves that control the digestive processes is we'll worth trying if you have wind on thestomach, sour 1isings in the throat, a feeling of weakness in the stomach and palpita- ton of the heart. Dr. Williams Pink Pills are recommended for thin blood and weak nerves, whatever the cause.
 Send today to the Dr. Williams Medi- cine Co.,, Schenectady, N. Y.-, for the diet book "What to Eat and How to Eat" It gives information regarding the tonic treatment for many forms of stomach trouble. There cannot be perfect digestion without 8 sufficient supply of red blood and there is noth- ing better than Dr. Williams Pink Pills to enrich the blood and tone up the stomach.

SPANNELL TALKS
Says He Shot Wife Accidentally While Aiming Tt Colonel Butler-Brother May Avenge Sisters Death.

Fl Paso. Texas, July 2S.-Harry Spannell. the former music teacher at Baylor University, was brought here last night handcuffed to a deputy sheriff, who took him to Alpine for a preliminary hearing on the double charge of murder in connection with the shooting of his wife and Lieuten- ant Colonel M c. Butler at Alpine a week ago.
 For the first time since his arrest Spannell made a statement, in which re declared he accidentally shot his wife while firing at Lieutenant Colonel Butler, who was seated in the back seat of the automobile when the tragedy occurred. This was all he would say of the affair. He kept ask ing for his little daughter, who is being cared for by her grandfather John Holland, father of. the dead woman.
 At the hearing yesterday Spannell's attorney waived a hearing for him. The prisoner was immediately taken in an automobile to Maria and brought back to El Paso, as 1t was reared that the feeling had not suff1- C1onLlN QuleI6u III Alpllle IO p61IlllL him being left in jail there until the trial is held. A change of venue will be asked for, and it is probable that the trial will be held in Fl Paso this fall.
 Another character has been injected into the case by the report from Ari- zona that Clay Holland, brother of Mrs Spannell, was coming back to Texas to avenge the death of his sister This was learned yesterd9 " from a former Texas Ranger, who $ 6 friend of young Holland, and who said he received the information in a letter from young Holland.
 A large sum of money is being raised at Spannells former home in Waco for his defense, and he has en- ployed Judge L. A. Dale of Fl Paso to defend him. Money is also being raised for his defense at Hazelton, Penn, where he formerly lived before going to Baylor University to teach music and where he met his wife, who was attending school there.

TREASON, SAYS MCCORMICK
Democratic Campaign Leader Warns Those Who Claim Troops Are on
 Border to Deprive Them of Vote.

New York, July 28.-Vance c. Mc- Cormick, chairman o6s the democratic national committee denounces as reasonable statements emanating from republican sources and ascrib- Ing to President Wilson an intention of keeping the National Guard on the Mexican border until after election in order to keep them from voting. The president, according to these state ments, had become convinced that the guardmen's vote would not be In his favor.
 T am not going to ESay politics with the United States army" said MT. Mccormick when these statements were brought to his notice yesterday. The army is not the property of any party but the property of tl<o whole people. l think those who are trying to do so are treading on very dan gerous ground. The people will be quick to resent any attempt to use the armed force of the United States as a football in politics, whether it be done by Federal administration or by a political party anxious to get back into power and not over scrup- ulous about the means of getting back
 Those men are on the border de- lending their country's interests and doing patriotic service. Statements have been made in certain quarters which closely border on treason. To criticise the domestic policy of an ad- ministration is one thing, but to ques- lion the motives of the president in connection with matters involving the relations of this country with other nations in my opinion is pretty snearly reasonable.
 "The Wilson administration is will Ing and prepared to stand on it's record of four years of achievement. I am not interested, as national chair man, in anything that is being done with a view to legislation to open a way for recording the guardsmen's s vote. If they have a legal right to vote, in my opinion, way should be found to let them vote.
 I've are not afraid of the soldier vote or any other vote. Those boys are reading the newspapers Let them obtain correct information on both sides in this campaign and we stand ready to accept the result, Let those who are out and want to get in tell what they would have done if they had been in the presidents place."

LAUGHING JACKASS
 IN HYSTERICAL FIT
Keeper Of Zoo Fears He May Laugh
 Himself to Death

New York, July 2S.-For three days now the laughing jackass has laughed immoderately, and Bill Sny- der, head keeper of the Zoo in Gen. tral park, appointed a committee yesterday to discover who or what had so tremendously stirred the birds sense of humor.
 Pep is one of a pair that have long been one of the attractions in the park. They occupy the cage with some of the smaller birds, but their jovial dispositions and merry pen- chant for playing practical jokes at each others expense have caused the small boy and girl to finger longer in front of their home than before any of the other cages in the bird house.
 Pat Keenan, veteran keeper of the park, entered the bird house the oth- CT day, and as he approached the cage of the laughing jackasses he gave his customary chirp of welcome One of the birds chirped a greeting in return and hopped close to the bars in anticipation of some tidbits from it's friend. But Pep" regard d u, then a twinkle appeared in his eye and he threw back his head and be- gan laughing uproariously. He has been laughing ever since.
 In accounting the news of the week to his friends gathered in the hay house yesterday Snyder gave voice to his anxiety as to whether harm might come to Pep" because of his prolonged and apparently uncontrol- lable fit of laughing. Seated on a bale of hay Bill discoursed on birds in general and the laughing jackasses in particular. Opinions differed as to just what was the matter with Pep and why he should be in peril of laughing himself to death,
 'I have consulted other ornitholo- gists and I have looked through tho books" said Bill, "but I do not learn

of another case in which a laughing jackass became hysterical.
 "One ornithologist told me of d crow that developed fits of laughter, and from my assistant, Bob Hurton, I learn that once, in circus with which he travelled, @ laughing hyena was so tickled ly the antics of a clown that he couldn't eat for a week.
 This Dog Wore q Grin.
 Hurton repeated his story of the laughing hyena and Robert Cope land, the park policeman, told of a station house dog that habitually wore a smirking, sarcastic grin, but none could account for the way Pep" was cutting up. In no uncertain language Keenan denied that his ap pearance when he entered the bird house was such as would cause self-respecting bird to forget his dig nifty and good manners. He said he resented the insinuation of the head keeper that the bird was laughing at him.
 'I don't say that" Snyder hastened to remark. But, Pat, the fact re- mains that the first record we have of the overindulgence in laughter on the part of Pep was when you ar rived and chirped good morning."
 "Perhaps," ventured Keeper Cum mings. Pat did not chirp a greet ing, but instead he started the bird to laughing with one of his droll Irish stories.''
 This Keenan vigorously denied and, that the mystery might be cleared up, Snyder appointed Hurton, Cunning ham, and Crowley a committee to in vestigate and report at the hay house meeting next Sunday afternoon.

HATCH TAKES BLAME
 FOR BANK TROUBLES
On Sickbed, He Admits He De-
 frauded Orange Institution

New York, July 2S.-Under arrest l at his home in Maplewood, N. J., i where he is convalescing from an operation for appendicitis, Edwin H. Hatch, vice president of the Mutual Trust company of Orange, assumed responsibility for the state of affairs which led to the closing of that in
 stitution by George M. La Monte, State Commissioner of Banking and Insurance, Monday.
 MT. Hatch did this after reading a
 copy of a statement relative to the
 trust company's failure made by Thomas $. Byrne, secretary and treas
 urer of that institution. The Byrne
 statement tied up the trust company's troubles with the financial entangle- ments that recently led to the failure of former United States Senator James Smith, Jr, of Newark. The gist of the statement was that he was in duced to overcertify Hatch's deposits in furtherance of plan concocted by Hatch to relieve situation which had come about through his taking up Smiths paper.
 As the outcome of a conference be- tween Assistant Prosecutor Wilbur A. Mott of Newark and Chief Justice William S. Gummere at the latter's summer home at Point Pleasant the night before, warrants were sworn out yesterday for the arrest of both Hatch and Byrne for having conspired to defraud the Mutual Trust com pany out of $306, ,0O0. As it was known that Hatch had recently un- dergone an operation, Drs. Walter S. Washington and Joseph F. Fewsmith were sent to the Hatch home in com- pany with Constable Thomas Meyer to report on his condition. They found Hatch unable to leave his bed and so reported, with the result that he was left under the constable's surveillance. It was planned to have Justice Frank w. Smith go to the home today and after formal ar rangement fix the amount of ball.
 Byrne appeared at the court house in company with his counsel, Thomas A. Davis of Orange and gave himself up. His bail was fixed at $25,00O.
 Boiled down. Byrne's statement was that on the nlghC or May 1S last he met Hatch at the bank, and after three hours urging was persuaded by him to sign seven certificates of de- posit, aggregatirg s340,O0O dating them from May 19, 1916, and received from Hatch in return for them only $34,OOO
 Edward M. Collie of the Newark law firm of Collie & Collie made this state ment in behalf Eof Hatch;
 "Mr. Hatch is sick abed recovering from an operation for appendicitis performed at the Memorial Hospital about two weeks ago. He was ar rested today at his residence and cx- amined by Drs. Washington and Few smith on behalf of the prosecutor, who reported to the prosecutor.
 "Mr. Hatch has read a copy of the statement of MT. Byrne in the Dos- session of the prosecutor and desires to say that in all substantial particu lars 1t is correct and MT. Hatch Is for the act done by MT. Byrne at his request and solicitation.
 "Mr. Hatch desires. as far as pos sible, to relieve MT. Byrne from the respOnSibilitY.'
