WASHINGTON PUTS. FAITH IN
 GEN. ALExIEFF
Believes That Korniloff,s Revolt Is Rapidly
 Weakening.

Washington, Sept. 1.-Two devel- opments in the Russian situation cause officials here to regard itymore hopefully. They were:
 The abandonment of Gen. Kornilof by Moslem troops and other profes- lsional fighters on whom Ksrnilof probably had placed much reliance in his advance on Petrograd.
 The appointment of Gen Alexieff. former. commander in chief, his chief of staff under Premier Kerensky, who has assumed the rank of commander. The first was. Interpreted as an in dication that the revolt was fast fac ing collapse unless new help, came from sources yet undisciosed in unof- f1cial advices reaching here.
 The second was taken to mean that Gen., AIexieff, as chief of staff. ,vir- tually will be commander, since Ker- ensky is not a military man and his probably is for the psychological ef- feet and inspiration of his personality on a nervous country. A1exieff proba- bly can be counted on to carry out the very reforms in army discipline that
 
 ened division, then, might develop ele- ments of better organization than the country had before.
 {. Gen. Alexieff,i it was recalled here today, was largely responsible for ad- herence of the army to the revolu- etion which deposed the Romanoffs. He assumed command of the new armies under the first Provisional government and was succeeded only recently by Korniloff because the in evitab1e army Reorganization follow ing the revolution demanded a change. At the Moscow conference he made a speech denouncing advo- cates of loose discipline and predicted serious consequences if reforms did not come soon.
 There is much speculation here on the probable punishment of Gen Korniloff and his supporters if their movement fails, particularly since the deaah penalty is no longer inflicted in Russia except at the front and be- cause KorniIoff stood so high in pop ular estimation that the government may hesitate to deal drastically with him. Despite the slightly more hopeful aspect of the situation on the surface officials and diplomats here do not overlook that later advices outlining more clearly the Internal political sit ! uation may show Russia's predica- ment is still very critical.

 ure of Soldiers.

The announcement of the adjutant general that 40 per cent. of the Con necticut National Army soldiers will be called on September 20 instead. of on four days, the 18th. to 22nd inclu- sive, will make only one change nec- essary, that of the men reporting on the above date.

ATTEMPT TO PUT
 UNITED STATES ON
 PAR WITH GERMANY

Washington, Sept 13.-Baron Aker- hfeim, charge d'affaires of the Swed- fsh legation here, informed Secretary Lansing today that he had received the statement of the Stockholm for eign office, already published here, on the passage of Count von Luxburg's s dispatches through the legation in Buenos Aires, but that as the depart 1nent already was in possession of that information he did not consider 1t necessary to present 1t formally.
 Examination of the already pub 1ished statement reveals some inao- cnracy. The Swedish foreign office says 1t acted in a similar way for the United States and it's minister in Trr- Key.
 The American minister here" said the Swedish statement -'durinx the present year asked for and received eave to send to and from Turkey let steis and te1egraus and this at a. time when Turkey had not yet gone to war with the United States and it's inter ests had not yet been taken over by the Swedish representative in Con- ,stantfnople."
 Records at the State Department show that Ira Nelson Morris, minis { ter to Sweden. has reported that the Swedish government has not been re- quested to transmit messages before E April 10, but that he had inquired < whether the Swedish government would be willing to assume charge of { American interests in Turkey in case 't5f rupture.
 & The Swedish governments agree.

WHAT THE BOYS DIE,

Once when Fred Harlan was 60
ing outside to play with the other
boys, his father told him that
Frank Berch and Harry Smith
wanted him to go to the western
prairies with them. Fred asked
his father if he could 60. Mr.. i7ar.
Ian said, Fred you may 60 if you
are ready when the other boys are. !"
Fred hurried around to get ready
while his mother and sister packed
his trunk. AS it was three o'clock
in the afternoon and the boys were
going at 10 o'clock the next morn
ing he had to hurry.
He did not sleep much that night.
The next morning at 10 o'clock the
boys met at the station and when
tire train came they were ready.
The town they came from was in
Rhode Island, they stopped that
night at Pittsburgh. Pennsylvania.
1t took two days for the rest of
the journey to Kansas City.
When they reached there they
hired a wagon, horse, and mar to
drive out to the house that they
had telegraphed for. They paid the
man and went inside.
They did not wait very long be-
fore they went to bed because it
was late.
About ! o'clock in the morning
they heard a great racket on the
roof and Frank went outside to see
what it was. Pretty soon he came
running in and said, Hurry boys,

LOST

Dear Aunt Molly:
like the Junior real well and
read it every time 1t comes, SO
am sending true story:
One Sunday morning when we
were playing black-man we saw
some Of our old neighbors coming
up the hill
They have two children the
same age as we are. The Oldest is
a girl and the other is a boy.
Their names are Esther and How
ard
!(fore dinner we went over to
Mr.. Leeds woods and swung in
a swing that Mr.. Frame had put
up.
After we had swung little while
we went home and ate our dinner.
After dinner we went UP along a
creek called Elkhorn to look for
shells. We went about two and
one-half miles and then we went
away from the creek and got lost.
After wandering around a while
we came to an old stone house
where no one lived.
Then it began TO rain. We want
ed to stop but Esther was afraid,
SO we went on in the rain until We
got all turned around and did not
know where we were so we stopped
and tried to build a fire but all the
matches went out and by this time
Esther was crying SO hard and we
were so wet that we started to wan
der around whether we got any
place or not.
Pretty soon we thought we heard
papa calling us and when we saw
him across the creek. We couldn't
get across so he told us how to go
so we started off.
After little while we came to
church that was right back of our
house. Esther's father was there
waiting for us.
After we got in the house and
got dry Howard said, Believe me
it's enough to make anybody cry"

MANY CHILDREN WORK
pJIZIJE

The "T" puzzle in last weeks
Junior proved so popular answers
began coming in before the last
papers were distributed In the city.
Herbert Martin of North 9th street
was the first. He came running
into the Palladium office all out of
breath, but very triumphant, at
quarter of five, and he showed be-
yond doubt that he justly had
won the first prize. He said it
took him about an hour to work
it out, but he got it.
Louise Daub of North 18th street
was the second, and Ellen and Car
olyn Bartel of South 18th street,
were the third, these answers COM
ing in the first thing Monday
morning.
Elizabeth Lamb of South 18th
street also was one of the first to
send in an answer, but she had
made two mistakes in putting the
parts together. Others came in
later.
