CHEWING GUN
CHEERS SOLDIERS

News that the proponents of ma
tion.wide prohibition measure should
grayely consider comes from Britain,
where, 1t is alleged, many munition
workers, deprived of their regular al
lowance of alcoholic stimulant, have
taken to chewing cordite, which pro-
duces sort of hashish eXhilaration
with terrific reaction,
In line with this report, but afford
ing an agreeable Offset, is Lord North
cliffe's comment upon the missionary
work for chewing gum done by Ameri-
can soldiers in the entente armies. He
says that the habit of gum chewing
while under the heavy strain of trench
life is growing among the soldiers.
This is easily understood by ruminat-
ing Yankees who find that in many
crises the mastication Of chicle cheers
but does not inebriate.
Gum chewing might we'll become the
safety valve Of temperament If pro-
hibition became general and bone dry
laws were enforced. II is well known
that the tendency to do something
the human breast and II this tendency
is suppressed in one direction it will
break out In another-as, for example,
in cordlte chewing. Thus in order to
make gum chewing popular and a sub
stitute for drinking and smoking, it
must first be established as vice. AS
virtue 1t will appeal to very few.
II remains, therefore, for Chicago,
which takes a justifable pride in be-
ing the chewing gum capital of the
world, to begin forward drive to
give chewing gum the status of vice.
Then it will receive ready acceptance
as a substitute for John Barleycorn

Reward for Train Bandit
Divided Among Twenty-Five

Cheyenne, Wyo.. May 27.-lt was
only because the Union Pacific rail,
road waived its strict legal rights that
any OF the claimants for the So, 500 re-
ward for the capture of William l.
Carlisle, train bandit, were able to par.
ticipate in the reward at all.
Judge Charles Z. Winter, arbitrator
in handing down his decision recently
by which twenty-five OF the l34 claim
ants received portions OF the money
declared every man, who claimed a
share of the money was either an EN-.
ploye OF the railroad or member OF
a sheriff's posse and, therefor, could
not legally share in the prize. The
railroad insisted, however, that the
money be divided.
One man received $3.50, one $3.50
two received $500 each, two $400 each
six $500 each, nine $50 each and three
$50 each.
Carlisle held up, single handed
three Union Pacific trains between
February 9 and December !, 1916.
He exhibited considerable bravado
in each case and extended marked
chivalry to the women passengers, re.
fusing to take more than half their
iewelry. He talked constantly to the
passengers as he went through their
pockets.

North Platte people offered large
tracts OF land free for the location oi
the camp there. Deadwood, S. D., ha.
offered to donate 10000 acres. These
offers were rejected because of lack
Of proper railway facilities.
Asks Some Questions.
What population has Hastingsi'
asked Colonel Morgan, of the
Hastings man, who offered $50 acres
in behalf OF Hastings.
About $1,000 population" came the
reply,
MAN. said the colonel, do you
think we're going to put $4,000 troops
in town OF 1900 people?" =.
The local committee took the Of
heers 10 Elkhorn also to look over
some ground, but this the officers
pronounced entirely out of the ques-
ton on account OF the lack of suf-
hcient railway facilities.
The officers made it plan that they
want railway facilities and plenty OF
them; that they want easy access to
the city for entertainment and amuse-
ment for the soldiers during their
leisure hours, and that they must be
where supplies are easy to get. They
also made it plain that good water
must be easily accessible. and that
the lay Of the ground must be such as
may be easily kept in sanitary con-
dition.
The commission left in the evening
for Des Moines. They have examined
tracts at St. Paul, Sioux City and
Omaha, and will now examine offer
ings at Dcs Moines, Cedar Rapids and

AMERICA IN RIGHT,
SHOULD Be SLOGAN
Rev. R. F. Leavens breaches
Patriotic Sermon, Using Get
tysburg Address for
His Text.

Rev. R. F. Leavens used the Gettys-
burg address of Lincoln as the text
of a patriotic Memorial day sermon
at the Unitarian church yesterday
morning.
"On this Memorial day a world war
holds our attention." said the minis
ter. "ln the past we have been prone
to allow the thin blue line OF veter-
ans to meet and remember almost
alone-holidays rather than days hal
lowed and holy-not because we failed
to appreciate, but because as a ma
ton we are a little too old to cling
to and rely upon those who gave and
protected liberty and a little too
young to fully understand and ex-
press our deep debt OF gratitude.
we have fought to establish and
perpetuate liberty and union-a gov
ernment of the people, by the peo-
pie, and for the people, and we fight
now that such government may not
perish from the earth. Rising above
and beyond a mere provincial nation
alism, we have cast down the gaunt-
let in the great cause of humanity. We
have assurance of success i'll the
quiet, sober, determined manner in
which we are going about the busi-
ness OF war, i'll the charity felt for
all, including the enemy, in the alb
sence of artificial blare and blaze, in
the efficiency and justice of conscrip-
ton, in our citizen soldiery led by
men pacihsts in principle, and in the
righteousness Of our cause.
Let not our slogan be America
Firstr in the sense of Deutschland
Ueber Allesl Let it rather be, Amer
lea in the right and, where wrong, to
put it right"
Unitarian Sunday services at Tur-
pins hall closed yesterday for the
summer! Hereafter there will be open
air meetings in the parks and woods.
1t is expected that there will be sew
eral summer services in the Bird Re-
serve at Child's Point. Headquar-

With potatoes selling for more than

in letting people tramp over a large
potato patch just west of the fire. A
squad of coppers guards the patch
and would not even permit the owner,
Frank Jaceyek to tresspass.
The hills which form natural
amphitheater about the elevator, were

mated that more than 10000 witnessed

with two women, had narrow escape,
when his machince skidded and slid
$50 feet down hill and into a yard,
The car was brought to halt only

the occupants was hurt. Several
pulled Mr.. Robinson's machine out.
Carry Out Furniture.
Mrs. Orcott and her mother, Mrs.
Dixon, who lives with her at 2999
South Twenty-eighth avenue, carried
all their furniture and belongings in
to the street, when their roof took
fire from sparks which sailed five to
six blocks through the air. They live
three blocks southwest of the Nancy
Mills. Firemen played hose on their
roof, and smashed out their windows
in the haste TO get the goods out.
Mattresses and books which had been
carried out, took fire in the street
from sparks which alighted on them.
Frank Metzel, S003 South Twenty
eighth avenue, also carried his organ
and several articles of furniture out
in the street, when the roof took fire,
but the flremen succeeded in quench-
ing the blaze.
Try to Save Residences.
Pete Selvitsky, 30ll South Twenty
eighth avenue, gathered his belong
ings together and moved some OF
them out, when the sparks began to
alight and shoulder on the roof The
same was true of the houses south on
Twenty eighth street for a distance of
five blocks from the burning mill.
Firemen kept hose playing on the
roofs OF these houses for five and
six blocks from the location of the
main blaze.
All around the houses at this dis
tance, great sheets of tin, half as large
as barn doors kept darting through
the air, alighting in the streets, and
cutting into the roofs OF houses.
ITS darn funny the watchmen and
Guards can't discover a fire like that
said Frank Metzel, 3005 South Twen-
ty-cighth street, after he had moved
some of his furniture out, and while
the fremen were extinguishing some
sparks on his own roof. Here they
have been guarding that mill for
weeks. They have watchmen and
Guardsmen around it day and night,
fellow can't get within four blocks of
it. Yet we had to run over and tell
them the thing was on FIRE. We saw
1t as soon as it started in the top"
