Correspondence of The Associated Press.)
Wilma, Russia, Nov. because the
price of soaps and such necessities for
washing as starch, borax and the like,
has increased beyond the reach Of
the poor people, it is proposed to es-
tablish in Wilma a number of com
munal laundries' for patronage by
those who cannot afford to pay dearly
for cleanliness.
Just how much the local inhabitants
have been able to do for themselves,
through the agency OF twenty-five
"Achieser Societies" or institutions of
brotherly help, is indicated by the six
months report of the main organiza-
ton, just issued.
According to this report the TWEEN
ty-five branch societies in all the por-

half year just over $4,000 and ex-
pended little more than $1,000 in

Mushroom Prices

Correspondence of The Associated Press.)
Berlin, Nov. 10:-For no explain
able reason except speculation mush-
rooms have scared in price to such
height that the authorities are be-
ing called on to step in, establish
maximum prices, or take some SINH
lar measure to keep them within the
reach of the common people.
This season mushrooms are so
plentiful that the price paid by the
wholesaler to those who gather them
ranges from 80 to 40 pfennigs a
pound. Even at this low rate fami-
lies during the summer made from
80 to 100 marks day by making ex-

Notwithstanding, this superabund-
ance of the plants has not tended in

Chief Meyers may not wear a
Brooklyn uniform next season. The

quently injured. Furthermore, it is
said, the chief did not make hit with
his employers when he openly found
fault with the sale of worlds series
tickets in Boston and Brooklyn.
Meyers was accused of being the
ringleader in leveling criticism at the
business managers of the series, which
the Red Sox won with comparative
ease.
II Meyers remains with the Robins,
he will have to accept large cut in
his salary. As matter of fact, Of
hcials Of the Brooklyn club will not
make strenuous attempt to sign him
to another contract. 1t will not be
surprising if the chief is offered to
some other National league club in a
trade for younger catcher. Uncle
