GERMAN VICE CONSUL
 TELLS OF SPY WORK
Admits He Was Ordered By Berlin To Get Information, and Discloses
 Activities of Japanese.

San Francisco, Dee. 20.--That he had been ordered by the German government to secure information on the Pacific oloast concerning war rHu- r4tions shipments to Great Britain and her allies, was the admission to- day of German Vice Consul E. H. von Schhack one of the defendants in the trial in federal court here of Ger man Consul-General Franz Bopp and associates on charges of conspiracy for violating American neutrality.
 The defendants are alleged to have plotted to destroy ships and rail- roads carrying munitions to the en- tente allies.
 Won Schack' said he hired c. C. Crowley, another of the seven de. fendants, and Louis J. Smith, star witness for the government, to get tn, information.
 United States Attorney Preston $ reqeust to see von SchacsS's order brought an objection from counse! for the defense that such demand was in violation of German and American treaty rights covering the inviolability of government docu- ments.
 Von Schack said Crowley reported to him the discovery of Japanxe roaming up the California coast with field glasses gazing out to sea for glimpses of German ships. The Japanese, Crowley's report showed, the witness said. had auto wireless stations to relay any information they seclred. According 10 von Schack. Crowley reported that the Japanese e'uiser liZumc, cruising off the Cali fornia coast outside the three mile limit. would relay to wireless sta tions in Canada information sent by the Japanese from portable stations operated by the Japanese on land.
 Von Schack testified that protests had been made to Rear Admirol Pond then supervisor Of the twelfth naval district and another to the state de. partment. This was in 1915.
 The vice consul denied that Crow ley or anyone else had been hired to do any dynalniting.

Washington, Dec. 20.--Independent members of the incoming house of representatives are planning an organization to work apart from both the Republican and Democrats with the avowed purpose of enforcing changes in the rules with a view cf having committee meetings attended with great publicity.
 Representative Randall of Cali fornia, Prohibitionist, said the pres ent system of voting in committee makes it possible for members to conceal their attitude toward legisla- tion. of we can remedy this, and make some changes in the method of reporting bills from committee, an independent organization will be worth Whiie," he said.
 Four independent, Representatives Schmall of Minnesota and Martin of Louisiana, P,Dgressives; Randall of California, Prohibitionist. and London of New York.

X HIGH PRICED PRODUCT.

The most costly substance in the world is radium which has steadily advanced in price to a rate of three million dollars an ounce. In all, not more than one ounce of radium has been obtained or separated" from the mineral ores from which it was first derived by Professor and Madame Curie. Radium has been produced from "pitchblende. "carnotite" and autunite" Radium is shining white metal. The salts of radium--a white powder-whidl is the workable form of this substance. glows in the dark like firefly or a glow worm. An atom of radium is the most amazing substance known to man. It gives out increasingly. heat light, electricity, a heavy gas and three types of rays called respectively, alpha, beta and gamma, the last identical in kind with the "X-ray" discovered bv Professor Roentgen of Bavaria in 1895. Such is the stupendous force within the radium atom that-in spite of it's con- stant expenditure of energy-in the passage of two thousand years only half of it's activity is lost. The light from an alpha ray has speed of 12,- 900 miles second, from the beta ray of 1S6.000 miles a second. The gam ma rays will pass through six inches of lead. It is almost impossible to obtain protection from these rays. Some mineral waters are beneficial because they contain a radium emana tion, and as a curative agency radium is applied to the treatment of diseases such as cancer, neuralgia, gout, etc. Peoples Home Journal.

ENJOINS FATHERS NOT
 TO NEGLECT THE BOYS
Rev. E.. K. Steel Makes Address at Fellowship Luncheon at Y. M. (.
 \. Last Evening.

Rev. Theodore Copeland. pastor of the Lakeside Methodist church. was indisposed last evening, and was un. able to attend the Fellowship lunch con at the Young Mems Christian as the principal speaker.
 The affair was most delightful de- spite this disappointment. quite a number of laymen making impromptu talks, and Rev. k. R. Steel, pastor of the First Methodist church, bringing the affair to a close :,ith peculi- arly appropriate and homely talk on the Christmas feeling.
 Dr. Steel told the gathering that at this season of the year, he felt par. ticularly happy that he is the proud Ipossessor of happy family, that they are all enjoying good health, that he is educating his children to make themselves good citizens, giv- ing them instruction that will make them of some good to themselves and to the community. Too many men, he said. are so energetically engaged VI amassng wealth that they forget thelr families, and especially do too many fathers neglect their boys. He urged each of those present to care for the boys, encourage them, instruct them, direct their energies in the propev line. and thus aid the hov to betj,me a good man, a Christian man.
 The committee from the Woman s had prepared an exception ally good luncheon. with seasonab.e 'danties, and the table was decorated in the Christmas spirit.

To Keep Skin Healthy,
 Youthful, Wrinkles

Now that the social season is here, be especially careful 10 keep your skin in fine condition. You know conspicuous dompleXion defects ap- pear under the bright light of the drawing or ball room. Also how very evident arc some makeups when sim ilarly Illuminated. have myself discarded cosmetics entirely, using q process which gives far better re suits, and which leaves no trace on the skin. At night smear on thin coat of ordinary nercolized wax washing it off the next morning. This gradually absorhs the devitalizei particles Of surface skin; just as gradually the more youthful skin be. meath comes forth, providing a com plexlon as clear. smooth and delidste ly tinted as a young sirl's. Get an ounce of mercclized wax at your drug gjst's and try this remarkable treat ment.
 Remember, too, that wrinkles, even the finer lines, are rot easily con- cealed in a brilliantly lighted room. You can quickly obliterate these hate ful marks by bathing your face in solution of powdered saxolite, one ounce, dissolved in witch hazel, one half pint. And your face won't look stickT, as after using paste.-Aunt Sally in Woman's Realm.-Advt.

BUYS R. R. AS "JUNK,"
 SELLS AT BIG PROFIT
Dealer Who Disposes of Material To Allies Says |. $. Waste Amounts
 TO Billion 8 Year.

New York, Dec. 2o.--Bought as funk, the Chicago, Anamos & Northern railroad. otherwise known as the Can" road, has been resoIi and will be torn up, and with it's rolling stock. will be shipped to Eng land and relaid, according to it's present owner, Herman Sonher, at tending the quarterly session here of the National Association of Waste Material dealers.
 He said he expects to make the same disposition of the Iowa Short line which he also bought as waste material. The price of old rails and iron has reached such heights, Mr. Sbnker said, that the sale of the road realized him handsome profit. The road was 36 miles in length.
 MT. SonAer stated that the waste in the United States amounts to moro than $1 0O0,000,000 each year. Other waste dealers at the session here deny that the high price of paper is due to the scarcity of rags and old paper stock.

FEEDS l,4OO STUDENTS
 AT 7 CENTS PER MEAL
Despite Low Charge, Boarding Hall Gains $559, and Students Gain
 Weight.

Berea, Ky, Dec. 21.-ln order to prove that the cost of living has not reached every part of the country, Berea college, in thS Kentucky noun tains, is responsible for the statement that it's 1.400 students are fed at g. cost of seven cents per meal, that they gained several tons" in weight, and that the boarding hall made q net gain of $559.49.
 In explaining this record, President Frost of tho college refers first to the economy of numbers, some 1,400 students being in constant attendance in the five departments. Another ex- planation of the seven-cent meal is the fact that most of the students are accustomed to plain fare, so that they almost unanimously choose to go without tea, coffee and butter to re- duce expenses. To offset these omis- sions the "balanced ration" has been introduced, on the assumption that it is just as important for students as flor any other live stock.''

MEETING At CITY
HALL To ARRANGE
FOR HIGHWAY ASSN.

A small number assem- led at the
city hall yesterday afternoon, upon
the call of the mayor, to make ar
rangements for caring for the dele
gates who are next week to come here,
to attend the conventions of the Old
Spanish Trail Association, and also
the West Florida Highway Assoc1a-
ton. The attendance was very
small, and the lack of interest on the
part of the public was mentioned by
many of those who spoke during the
meeting.
Mayor Hinrichs presided at the
meeting, and speeches were made by
practically all present. There was a
unanimity of sentiment regarding the
importance of the two associations
which are to meet in Pensacola dur
ing the week, and some comment was
made upon the danger of Pensacola
being left off the Old Spanish Trail
altogether, chiefly because of the
demonstrated lack of interest.
The meeting lasted over an hour,
during which number of plans were
discussed, concerning the best meth
DDS of caring for the delegations ex-
pected to come here and attend on
each of the two days conventions.
It was finally resolved that a CEN
trail committee, consisting of Mayor
Hinrichs, w. NJ. Herrider and Col.
r. NJ. Cary be named, and this COM
mittee will meet at the mayors office
this morning at 8 o'clock for the pur-
pose of naming committees to coop
crate in welcome of the delegates
There will be reception committee
an entertainment committee, com.
mittee to meet trains and escort dele.
gates to the meeting place, and prob.
ably a finance committee. These
will be carefully selected by the tire,
members of the central committee
and men who viii serve on each o.
them will probably be named.
The citizens so deeply interested il
the movement last night appeared anC
presented their case before the coun
ty commissioners, at last night
meeting.
In case there can be found a lega
way for donating, the city commits
sioners will probably give the sum O.
$50 this morning at special meetin,
to be ordered by the mayor, at which
the city attorney will be called in t,
advise.
