"The Morning After

One of the characteristic headaches
due to uric acid in the system, which
acts as a poison when it accumulates, is
due to alcohol taken the night before.
The kidneys do not succeed in throwing
off this poisonous accumulation, the
stomach is nauseated, or the blood con
gests in the head, causing throbbing pain,
called headache-the heart is depressed

AMUSEMENT NOTES
$50 Long Lefty" at Barre Opera House
Friday, Oct. 10.

Local theatregoers who will avail
themselves to see $50 Long Lefty" Oil
yer Morosco's pleasing musical comedy
which will be shown at the Barre opera
house on Friday, Oct. 10, and have never
been in the far west, will wonder why
Mr., and Mrs, Robbins and their neigh
bors, Mr. and Mrs. Miller, the leading
characters in the entertaining farce with
music, live in abandoned street cars.
They agree that Oliver Morosco, the pro-
ducer and eo-author of the play, has
provided something new in stage set
tings; a pleasong innovation far removed
from the stereotyped sets familiar in
most musical offerigs. But Mr. Morosco
has good authority for the novel scenes
shown in the two acts-the first out
side and the second inside street car
To the westward of San Francisco on
a sandy shore some eighteen miles from
the Golden Gate, is q little settlement
known as Carville. When electricity dis.
placed horses as the motive power for
street transportion and enterprising
young man purchased some of the old
street cars and had them shipped to the
seashore. Then he bought for little or
nothing, strips of land on the beach and
on them he placed his cars When he
had fitted the cars into semblance Of
a habitation he had no difficulty in rent
ing them to campers for the summer
months Some of the tenants bought the
little houses. The idea took hold; more
cars were moved to the beach and some
made into quite pretentious cottages. So
the authors of so Long Lefty" select
ID this little settlement as their locality,
he surroundings being quite unusual and
unique. To be sure, the interior of Mrs.
Robbins abode is somewhat larger and
more luxurious than one would natural |

The Movies Again.

As she pensively dug her spoon into
her ice, the girl in that puce pelerine
said:
did you know that Ethel and Jack
have broken off their engagement
"Goodness" exclaimed the girl with
the green suede boots, swallowing and
almost choking over mouthful of
freezing cold cream as she did So II
thought they were so devoted, tool"
so they were, said she of the rele-
rine. But Ethel is ar-sighted and
can't see the movies from the front of
the theatre, where Jack has to sit be-
cause he is so near.sighted. They were
awfully cut up, but decided that they
would never be happy if they had to be
parted half the time,-Exchange.

BIG COMEBACK
BY CHICAGO
Enabled Them to Defeat
New York When APP
parently Licked
HARD HITTING
ALL THE WAY
White Sox Now Have the
Edge on the World
Series

Chicago, Oct. l5.-Apparently beaten
hopelessly, disgracefully licked by them
selves instead of the Giants-the White
Sox staged tremendous comeback and
won the fifth game of the worlds series
by score of to after almost all the
fans who backed them had torn up their
tickets here Saturday. AT the end OF
five innings, nobody would have given a
seven.year old rain check for the chances
of the Rowlands. Before the game, their
club owner had lost the toss which de-
cided the place for the seventh game, Civ
ing the Giants big advantage if the
series is fought out that far
The battle started all New Iork's way
and at the end Of five rounds the White
Sox could feel their legs dangling over
the precipice behind which yawned the
chasm of oblivion. They had given the
Giants a toe hold of four runs to one,
through series of blunders, boots and
hobbies that would have disheartened
even the kaiser's press agent.
With nothing behind them apparently
but thin air, the Rowlands rallied and
fought themselves back to even terms
before the seventh inning was ended, then
routed the Giants so completely in the
eighth that there wasn't an atom OF
baseball battle left in the whole Nc
Graw outfit.
The Giants fought madly desperately,
and with all the rough tactics they
have learned in years of service under
their old school manager. They blocked
runners and shattered the atmosphere
with profanity, calling the conquerors
everything known to the vocabulary off
the New Yorker At one time it looked
as if Fletcher and Rowland would break |
into the pugilist column after the in
ming in which the Giant shortstop had |
handed the Sox the game. Rowland was
ready to put the belligerent shortstop
out of commission, for the rest of the |
series, at the cost of being banished from
the side lines himself, but umpire Evans
rushed in between and avoided the slug |
ging match that was brewing.
1t was the rottenest, most uproari
ously exciting, rowdiest and gamest fight
ever seen in more than a decade of
worlds series combats.

| Washington, d. c., Oct. l5.-The tar

With half of the campaign period end
ed, treasury officials estimated Saturday
night that not more than 5000, 900, 00C
had been subscribed and they considered
that new and tremendous impetus must
be given to the campaign if the subscrip-

host of workers and to galvanize the
country into a realization that most
strenuous efforts must be made if the big
drive is to be consummated successfully,
will be introduced into the campaign,
probably within "a hours
The time has come, officials feel, when
the people of the country must be made
to realize in a manner that leaves no
doubt that they must subscribe without
further delay to the full limit OF their
means
The S600,0Oo,O00 estimate of the treas
ury takes into consideration all the "op-
timistic unofficial" estimates from the
various reserve districts and that sum
is only IL per cent of the $1,000, 100000

.TREACHERY
TO RUSSIA
Is Subject of Thorough In
vestigation by the Rus
sian Embassy
INSPECTORS HAVE
BEEN BRIBED
ro-German Activity Has
Been Effective in Amer
lean Plants

Washington, d. c., Oct. l5.-Charges
of wholesale irregularities, gross incom
petence and pro-German activities in the
production of American made arms and
being made the subject of a thorough
investigation by the Russian embassy
here
Chief among the complaints are the
charges that rejected arms have been
accepted by higher Russian officials, that
conscientious inspectors have been tempt
ed with bribes, hampered and discharged.
While inefticiency is believed by Rus
sian officials here to have been the chief
obstacle in the way of speedy delivery
of arms, they admit, however, that in
some instances cupidity, and even sym
pathy for the German cause were mo-
tives.
The investigation extends to several
plants, and already has resulted in the
unceremonious dismissal of more than
60 Russian officials, both civilian and
military, and their speedy return to-
Petrograd. There officials say, wherever
age viii not prevent such action, the
dismissed men will be called upon toI
serve their country in conspicuous po
sitions on the firing line.
The outstanding features of the
charges under investigation are these:
That inspectors formed an organization
for the purpose of making public irreg
ularities that came under their obsery.

hearing from their immediate superior
Russian representatives.
That these inspectors, failing to inter
est any of the Russion commissions in |
New York, to whom they assert they
made repeated personal appeals, finally |
went on strike to call attention to the |
fact that rejected materials were being |
accepted by Russian representatives.
That the strike was ultimately broken |
by the dismissal OF many of their num-
ber-"the most conscientious of our
men" is the way they refer to the dis.
charged men in an affidavit made after
the occurrence.
