A Cook'a Accidental Discovery.

One Of the best ways Of cooking
potatoes was accidentally discovered
through the unpunctuality Of train.
When the line from Paris to st. Ger
main was opened the first train carried
an official party for whom lunch was
ordered. The meal was fixed for noon,
and shortly before that hour the pota-
toes were put on to fry. A few minutes
afterward message came that the
train would probably be delayed for all
hour, SO the potatoes were taken of
the fire. but left III the pan. Then came
a second message, Train just arriv-
ing" and the potatoes were hurriedly
put back to fry again. When the party
sat down to lunch the potatoes were
brought on with the steak. Each chip
was then found to be blown out like a
small, crisp. golden balloon, to the de-
light OF the guests. The cook without
knowing it had invented pOmmes de
terre sOuffies.

WIRING A TWELVE INCH Gun.

WAKE SNo S9CN9ks
According to the Mitigate Monthly,
no fewer than III miles Of steel wire
are wound on a twelve inch gun that
weighs thirteen and a half tons. In
appea rance this wire, which is Of the
same quality az piano wire, resembles
tape. 1t is a quarter of an inch wide
and a tenth of an inch thick. 1t is
d, t. breaking strength Of ITO
The wire unwinds from reel

Son of about fifty tons to the square
inch insures mechanical accuracy In
wrapping it round the gun.
Various parts of the gun receive diff
ferent thlcknesses Of wire. At the
~breech of twelve inch gun, where the
chief strain comes, there are ninety-two
layers which give a thickness of nine
and half inches Of wire, but at the
muzzle there are only fourteen layers.
Over the wire the g1lnmakers shrink on
steel rings Mt white heat. When they
cool they contract and grip with i'm
mense force The rifling OF the barrel
is an automatic process, an example of
wonderful mechanical ingenuity. When
the gun is finished experts test the &C.

these allies of Germany, with their
privileges of sending code messages,
afford a leakage for information to
reach Berlin. The attaches OF Bull
garia and Austria have free access to
our war, state and navy departments
and no matter how guarded our Of
ficials may be, the representatives OF
these nations, allied with our enemy
can. and do, obtain information OF
our war plans, which eventually reach
Berlin through the agency OF their
home offices.
"Austrians and Bulgarians have
been found in numerous plots against
This country and have been instru-
mental in stirring up disorder intend
ed to hamper our war efforts. This Is
particularly true of the !. w. W.
where few Germans are to be round.
America, through her curious pol
icy of waging benevolent war, has al
lowed millions of dollars to go out
of this country to swell the war chest
of her enemy. The great Austrian
fleet, which has been idle in Ameri-
can ports for three years, eating into
the capital of it's Austrian owners
has been slid at war prices. Austrian
securities held in America are being
sold and American dollars sent to Eu-
rope to help the Hapsburgs strange
democracy"
The society's plea undoubtedly has
some merit, but it is not likely to be
adopted unless the dual monorchy
commits same aggressive act on its
own account. The United States prob
ably will not hesitate to cooperate
with Italy for the reason that Italy
is at war with Germany as well as
with Austria. The dual monarchy is
more likely to declare war than the
United States as the situation now
stands.

Tomatoes For Seed.

Many persons save the first tomato
that ripens for seed, and they think
they are doing the right thing. The
very earliest tomatoes to ripen are not
as sweet and solid as those ripening
from a week to two weeks later. The
best plan in saving the tomato for seed
Ia to select the more uniform, medium
size, which ripen evenly and quickly a
little while after the plant has been
producing ripe fruit. Seeds saved from
tomatoes grown on moderately thin soil
will retain the good qualities better
than those saved from plants which
were forced by very rich soil.-Phila'

SCHOOLGIRLS AS HEROINES.

Imagine Thomas Hardy fashioning a
schoolgirl out of Wessex clay or George
Meredith venturing to describe Diana
of the Crossways in those early years.
Arnold Bennett would have created a
little miniature old wife, as Van Eyck
and Memling paint babies ike minia-
ture old men. H. G. Wells would depict
her as incipient temptation to lead Mr..
Britling. for instance. into one Of q
dozen romantic adventures.
Galsworthy would try to At her into
an ethical system. into niche OF so
cial justice or matrimonial ventures.
Mr.. Howells. one may imagine, might
have essayed the task, but he would
have tried to meet the difficulty Of get
ting the right values-as a painter dabs
blues OH yellOws to make green-by
adding to primness reminiscent OF
the "Vicar Of Wakefield" few deli

4 GLORIOUS PAGE"

THE battle near Riga is another
glorious page in the history of the
German army" says the official Ber-
lin statement dealing with the pur-
suit of the Russians out of the Bal
tic seaport. In the grand grandilo-
uuent spirit the kaiser ordered the
German flags to be displayed through
out Germany and Alsace-Lorraine.
The Berlin press pronounced the vic
tory a great feat for the kaiser's le-
gions.
Nobody, not even the Russian, has
attempted to belittle the German vic
tory as of no consequence. General
Korniloff, said the fall of Riga would
open the gate to the capital. Yet there
is little certainty that the Germans
will take Petrograd, or even will at
tempt to do so. 1t is $50 miles from
the city of Riga and with winter APP
preaching does not offer favorable
adjective for the German staff. More
over, there is serious doubt that the
kaiser is able to follow up his Riga
triumph with a blow at the capital
because of the scarcity of German re-
serves.
Thus the German jubilation over
the capture of Riga has hollow
sound. On the western front, where
the main armies are staged, Germany
has not made a showing since the bat
tie of Verdun-and the crown prince
has lost practically every foot Of
ground he gained there at so terrible
sacrifice. But Riga offers talking
point for the war lords and that is
the secret of their grandiloquence.
1t grows more and more evident
that Germany is growing weaker. 1t
is operating under forced draft. 1t
seizes upon a victory over a democrat
lied army-for everybody admits
that the Russian army is paralyzed
and unable now to strike decisive
blow-and proclaim it as a great feat
of arms. Meanwhile. it apparently is
preparing to fall back before the in
cessant pounding of the British and
French and is trying to minimize this
humiliating piece of work by exag-
gerating entirely out of proportion
the fighting qualities of its arms on
the eastern front which is battling
with a foe who retreats before he is
attacked.
The central powers are today fight
ing a purely defensive warfare and
whatever is gained in temporary Of
fensive is military velvet. Even the
war critics of the German press con-
fess that the military resources are
not such as to make possible sus-
tanned offensive. 1t is on this account
that the victories in Russia hold out
little hope for Germany.

WOULD DECLARE WAR ON AUS
TRIA

The Patriotic Education society,
with headquarters at Washington,
urges that the United States declare
war Immediately on Austria-Hungary,
Bulgaria and Turkey. The society ar
CUES that Germany relies largely up
on Austrians and Bulgarians for in
formation from this country and
makes the further point that instead
of hoping for separate peace from
Austria, we should take surer road
to peace by actively assisting the Ital-
ians their great drive through Cor
liza. The statement says:
"All of the reasons that made it ne
cessary for America to offer in sacri-
fee the lives of her youth and to
pledge her entire resources to a war
to the FINISH with the Hohenzollerns,
demand a similar declaration against
the Hapsburgs. The Hapsburgs have
shown the same ruthless disregard of
of the rights of small nations as the
Hohenzollerns. Remembering the
wrongs of Belgium, we have forgot
ten the wrongs of Serbia. Austrian
armies have committed the same out
RACES upon Serbian old men, women
and children that German soldiers
have committed in Belgium; Austrian
submarines sink ships without notice
and Austria has officially Endorsed
German submarine warfare.
"Evary days delay in declaring war
on Austria, Bulgaria and Turkey not
only puts off the ultimate victory;
that is a source of actual danger to
American homes. The embassies Of

258 FIRST NUMBER OUT
Secretary Baker Takes Out Ini-
tial Misunderstanding Con-
tinues All Day Friday and
Throughout Night.
Long List of Numbers Given In Order
as Drawn, From Which Those Who
Will Be Called to Serve in
First Army Will Be
Selected.

Washington, July 21.-The drawing
for the big United States army was
not completed until early Saturday
morning. The drawing began. at 9 AS
Friday morning, and continued
throughout the day and night. Alto
ssther 10000 numbers were drawn
from the big fish bowl. 1t was officially
drawn represented more than 1,000,-
QUO men, and it Is not considered
probable that men representing any
number drawn after the first 1000
will be called before any exemption
board for the first army, The first
eight numbers were drawn respective
ly by Secretary of War Baker, Senator
Chamberlain of the senate military
committee, Congressman Dent of the
house military committee, Senator
Warren and Representative Kahn,
ranking minority members of the SEN
ate and house military committees; :
Maj. Gen. Tasker Fl. Bliss, acting
chief of staff Of the army; Maj Gen.
Enoch Crowder, provost marshal of
the army; and Major General Mccain,
adjutant general of the army. After
the first eight numbers had been drawn
the regular tellers took hold, and
worked through until the long task
was completed.
In only small number of the larg-
est districts will the numbers above
few thousand affect registrants. Of
the 4,557 registration districts
throughout the country the largest has
something over 10000 numbers, while
the smallest has only about 1856, and
the average is about 5000. AS the
drawing proceeded, 157 numbers were
withdrawn before one low enough to
affect the smallest district came out.
1t was 126, placing 1857 men number
ed 126 on their local lists as 18th in
order of liability.
The following list shows the num-
bers in the order in which they were
drawn. The first number in each case
represents the order in which the see
ond, or red-ink registry, number was
taken from the bowl. -Four numbers
are given in each line. Beginning
with the first number, which was
drawn by Secretary Baker.

PRESIDENT OPPOSED TO JOINT
RESPONSIBILITY OF CONGRESS
IN CONDUCT OF WAR.
POINTS TO uNcoLNs CASE
Asserts Action Would Make His Task
Impossible and Reflect on His Adj
ministration of RostiIities-
Owen Father of Amendment.

Washington, July 25.-The president
hit hard at congress- effort to make it
self Jointly responsible with him for
the conduct of the war.
In letter to Representative Lever,
father of the food control bill, the
president asks elimination of the
Owen amendment, which created
joint congressional committee to su-
pervise the financial conduct of the
war.
II could only interpret its final
adoption" the president wrote, "as
arising from lack of confidence in
myself" The letter reads:
II am very much obliged to you for
your thoughtful courtesy in stating to
me the circumstances of the present
action on the food administration bill,
and l am particularly obliged TO you
for calling my attention to section %.
Il deem it my duty to express my
opinion about that section and its eff
feet upon the whole administration Of
the war very frankly indeed, since the
public interest manifestly demands
that do so.
Section % is not only entirely for
eign to the subject matter of the food
administration bill in which it is in
corporated, but would, if enacted into
law, render my task of conducting the
war practically impossible.
II cannot believe that those who
nrnnnSnd tif1iO IL
with care or aralyzed the effects which
its operation you'd necessarily have.
"The constant supervision of execu-
tive action which it contemplates
would amount to nothing less than an
assumption on the part of the govern
administration.
There is a very ominOus precedent
In our history which shows how such
supervision will operate. | refer to
the committee on the conduct of the
war constituted by congress during the
administration of Mr.. Lincoln. 1t was
the cause of constant and distressing
harassment and rendered Mr.. Lincoln's
task all but impossible.
Il am not, l beg you to believe, in
any way questioning what might be
the motives or the purpose of the
members of such a committee; 1 am
ready to assume that they would wish
to cooperate in the most patriotic
spirit, but cooperation of the kind is
not practicable in the circumstances.
II sincerely hope that upon the re-
consideration of this matter both
houses of congress will see that my
objections rest upon indisputable
grounds and that [ could only inter-
pref the final adoption of section %
as arising from lack of confidence in
myself. WOODROW WILSON"
The letter was written in response
to a request from Mr.. Lever. The
amendment was put into the bill at
the last minute Saturday afternoon.
1t was introduced by Senator Owen of
Oklahoma, a Democrat, but one who
has from time to time been opposed
to the administration.
