son causedsurprise and indignation
son caused surprise and Indignation
mon council was promptly called and
its leaders say the mayors attitude
will certainly be overridden and Mar
shall Joffre invited.
Mr.. Thompson said the thought a
mayor of Chicago would be presum-
ing in time of war to take the posi-
tion that all the people of Chicago
are in favor of the invitation because
Chicago is the sixth German city of
the world, second largest Bohemian,
Swedish. Norwegian and Polish.
while here in Chicago today is a
conference of 200 mayors to devise
ways and means to keep the people
from starving next winter. are these
distinguished gentlemen (the foreign
commissions here TO add to the suf-
fering of the people? The federal
authorities seem to have their minds
made up on seeing how much money
and food they can send to Europe.
The people will soon begin to wonder
when the federal authorities will be-
gin tOthink of the people at home"
Mayor Thompson is bitterly against

HUNTERS PAY TAX ON
STRAY DOG THAT WAS
A WORKER FOR ALL

DELPHoS, Kan May 4.-Old Ben
| isn't going to the canine heaven-at
least, not just yet old Ben is just a
liver-colored bird dog of the pointer
species. who came to Delphos no.
| body knows how long ago. He never
seemed to belong to anybody in par
ticnlar. but usually he could be founi
around the stove or under the settee
at the South Side Barber shop.
Ben would follow any man with Il
gun and during the hunting season
he was mighty popular. His exploits
in the field when quail We're plentiful
will be told and retold for many n
year to come. Then the Kansas Leg
islature passed the five-year quail law
and the old dogs usefulness ended
But not his popularity; for he has
been living all this time ON the boun
ty of those he helped provide with
quail on toast a few years ago.
Things looked pretty serious for
Ben short time ago. Kansas has u
rigid dog law, which provides that no
dog shall be entitled to life, liberty
and the pursuit of canine happiness
unless certain taxes are paid. There
was no one in particular to whom
Old Ben could look, and there was
some mighty serious talk that the
law would have to be obeyed.
Then Mayor John Adams, who is
the friend of every dog that is what
he ought to be, passed the word to the
city marshal that acted as n stay of
execution. And then the fellows who
used to think so much of Old Ben
before the legislature passed that
five year quail law. got to thinking
OF the good times they had together.
Somebody started out on a collection
tour and sufficient funds were re-
ceived to satisfy the dog tax man for
another year.

Shield to Protect Soldiers.


No single instrument of destruc-
tion is playing more vital role IN
the present war than the machine
gun. To deprive Germany of this
weapon by offsetting its effect IS the
purpose of an inventor who has de-
yeloped a bullet-proof fighting shield
that is perhaps worthy of study.
The device is a wedge-shaped steel
shelter mounted on one front and
two rear wheels and intended to ac-
commodate 10 infantrymen. The
shield is designed to be folded nat
and carried through the communlca'
ton trenches to the firing line,
where it could be assembled quickly
under cover of darkness, ready to
rrotect Sammies, Tommies, and
Poilus during an early morning ad-
vance across No Mans Land.
The October number of Popular
Mechanics Magazine contains furth-
er details of this interesting con-
trivance.
