Topic Under Discussion.

A literary club was recently or
ganized by women in a suburb OF
Boston. For while everything went
along beautifully.
One evening, while the Browns
were having dinner, Mr.. Brown ask
ed:
"Well, Inez, did you have a pleas
ant meeting at your club this after
noon?"
"Oh, yes, dear!" replied Mrs
Brown, with great enthusiasm, lit
was really splendid meeting. About
the best we have had, I think"
Indeed" said the husband, who
was not a firm believer in women's s
clubs; what was the topic under dis
cussion today?"
Mrs. Brown couldn't seem to re-
member at first. Finally, however
she exclaimed triumphantly:
"Oh, yes, I remember! We dis
cussed that brazen-looking woman
with red hair that's just moved in
across the street, and Shakespeare. u

SUBMARINE ToRPEDOED SUSSEX.
Note Says Reparation Will Be Paid
and U.Boat Officer Punished.

Washington, May 10.-Germany
in a note received by the State de-
partment today by cable from Am
bassador Gerard, admits that Ger
man submarine torpedoed the Chan
mel steamer Sussex in violation of as
surances given the United States, ex-
presses regret for the incident, an
nounces that the submarine COM
mander has been appropriately pun
;shed" and declares readiness to pay
an adequate indemnity to Americans
injured on the vessel.
1t was indicated at the State de.
partment that the German statement
that the offending commander had
been punished would be accepted and
the Sussex case considered closed, ex-
cept for arranging for the payment
of indemnities to the several citizens
of the United States who were hurt
There probably will be no attempt to
negotiate for these indemnities or fol-
final settlement of the Lusitania and
other cases pending, however, until
sufficient time has elapsed to indi-
cate how the last American note was
received in Berlin and whether the
new submarine policy is being lived
up to.
Important Statement.
Officials of the State department
noted particularly the passage Of the
note which said "in view of these cir
cumstances the German government
frankly admits that the assurances
given the American government, in
accordance with which passenger YES
sells were not to be attacked without
warning, has not been adhered to in
the present case." This was regard
ed as indicating purpose on Ger
many's part to decline to pay indem-
mites for Americans killed or in
jured in attacks on ships other than
passenger liners prior to the date of
last note in which the German gov
ernment promised that freight as
well as passenger vessels would not
be attacked without warning or with
out provision for the safety of per-
sons aboard. Any response of the
note received today probably will
make distinct reservation of Ameri-
can rights on this point.

erous. He would amuse circus pa
irons standing around his platform
by passing a half dollar through his
finger ring or cover a silver dollar
with the ball of his thumb, feats
which the original Hugo performed
for years before. him in Freak Hall.
His lack of knowledge of English
and his increasing illness combined
to make Hugo a lonesome and pa
thetic figure among his surroundings
of circus tinsel at the Garden during
the last two weeks or more. The tiny
Baron Paucci was the only member
of the circus organization with whom
he could converse, and the only time
a glimmer of a smile would tighten
up the gaunt features of Hugo would
be at those moments when Freak
Hall was free of visitors, thus
enabling him to prop the midget up
on his enormous knee and have an
old home talk IN Italian.
Three Beds Necessary.
When the giant came to the hotel
Preston recently it was necessary to
place three of the hotel beds side by
side and arrange the bedclothes and
pillows so Hugo could lie diagonally
across the three beds. Good hearted
circus performers tried to comfort
the giant during his last illness and
some of them were with him when
he died.
Nobody around the circus knew
Hugo's real name. The circus man
agement will take charge of the fu-
neral arrangements and pay the at
tendant bills and will bury Hugo in
Greenwood cemetery tomorrow. A
special coffin will, of course, have to
be made, and as the ordinary sized
hearse is out of the question, it is
probable that motor truck will have
to be used to take the body to the
cemetery.
Even Hugo's new friends among
the circus performers will not be
able to attend the funeral, many of
whom said yesterday around the
Garden that they would go if it were
possible. But tomorrow forenoon,
the entire circus performance is to
be given for the benefit of the boys
and girls living in the various orphan
asylums of the greater city, and as
the circus folk therefore will be per-
forming in and above the rings, the
funeral of Hugo promises to be more
dismally lonesome than even a funer-
al usually is.-New York Sun.

CARRANZA CURRENCY.
1t is Very Easy to Feel Rich Now III
Mexico.

Carranza war currency is worth
only a trifle more than one cent on
the American dollar, says a news let
ter from Eagle Pass, Texas. Inc
cost in American money OF rail-
road ticket from Piedras Negras, op-
posite Eagle Pass, to the city OF Mex
leo about 1900 miles by the route
that is now followed, is $3.50, in
Guiding sleeping car accommooa-
tions. This is equivalent to s42o
of Carranza currency, the only ac-
ceptable medium in the section un-
der control of Carranza.
Living is cheaper in Mexico than
in any other country in the world
nm the basis of the American dollar;
IN the basis of the war money, 1t is
very expensive. Ordinarily the fare
from Piedras Negras to the city OF
Mexico was SIS American money.
Not many Americans are ventur-
ing into Mexico at present, but there
is big travel of Mexicans all
through that country. Many OF them
possess American money, which they
convert into Carranza currency to
meet current expenses. Railroad
freight is charged on the war cur
rency basis.
Hotels and all other business con-
Germs are obliged to accept Carranza
currency. One can obtain room and
board at the best hotels in the capl-
tai, or any other city, for the equlva-
lent of 35 cents a day in American
money. All these concerns have ac-
cumulated enormous stores OF Car
rama money. Should the de facto
government be overturned it would
at once become valueless; therefore,
many would be financially ruined.
"When Carranza money was worth
about two cents on the American
dollar business called me to Mexico
said J. H. Rembley, of San Antonio
tsI exchanged $40 of United States
coin for $500 of the pretty paper
notes of the de facto government. l
never knew what is was to feel like
a millionaire until I began spending
that Carranza money. I expected to
be gone five days, and I determined
not to return to this side of the Rio
Grande with any of the war money
upon my person. I put aside $40 a
day for charity, and the way [ made
the poems along the route rejoice did
my heart good. I lived on the best,
but along toward the end of the
fourth day I saw that in spite of my
extravaganza I was going to have
nearly 500 left over; so to avoid
this, I invested it all in sweets Tor

where stopped"

More important, the cost of losin

The reason? The war has raised
