Detectives Doing Good Work.

Washington, Sept. 26. While there
is no indication Of what will be the
State Departments next disclosure
Of German intrigue in America or
elsewhere, II is known that disclos-
ures as sensational as any yet pub
lished are being held in reserve and
may be published at any time.
One of the things the State Depart
ment has is a list of persons who re-
ceived German money in the passport
frauds, the munitions plots and prac-
tically all the other activities Of Ger
man intrigue here, which took place
between the beginning Of the war
in August, 1914, and the entry Of the
United States into the conflict
This list is said to contain scores of
names and the amounts of money
run very high.
From time 10 time the department
also probably will make public GER
tain evidence to dispose Of the details
of those who have been involved in
the disclosures already made.

Clint Young reports to the Clarks-

half a peck of Irish potatoes and the
eyes of another half peck and after
using such quantity as the family need
ed upon the table from time to time
during the summer, he finally gathered
from the crop twelve and one-half
bushels of potatoes, some of which
weighed as much as two pounds each.
He states that he found no differ

Expected That 80 Negro Con-
scripts Will Be Sent
Next Week.
ONLY 22 WHITE ELIGIBLES
Call Expected In Time For
Men To Leave 0cto-
Der Third.

While no instructions have yet been
received by the local board, prepara-
tons have been made for sending the
second quota of 80 men from Christian
county to Camp Taylor next Wednes-
day, or as soon thereafter as they may
be called for. Available for this con-
tingent there are now % white and
81 colored conscripts passed upon and
held liable to call.
1t is the general belief the SO to be
called next week will all be colored,
since a mixed quota is not likely to be
chosen and the first quota were all
white men. This would leave about
8 additional men to be sent later in the
month OF October, who would prob
ably be the white men who were ex-
cused on account Of their crops.
There were more colored men who
qualified than there were white men,
although 65 per cent. of those called
for examination were white men.
This was due to the better physical
condition of colored farm hands and
to the fact that but few of them asked
for exemption in the last call of $50.
The proportion to qualify was not
so large in the first 300 called.
If the call from this county should
be again made for white men only,
the Board will be unable to send them
without third call for examination.
The board is looking for the official
order any day. 1t will probably be
received by the end of this week.

American Surgeons Cool.

American surgical teams have again
been doing magnificent work in adj
vanced casualty clearing stations since
the latest offensive began, number
of surgeons and helpers being under
heavy shell fire at times. AT one sta
tion out in the neighborhood of the
Ypres-Menin road several surgeons
and assistants have been laboring
steadily since Thursday morning.
Those who have seen them at the op-
Grating table while shells were
breaking about them declare that they
have never witnessed time of great
er GOODNESS than was shown by these
men who welded the knife to save
life during these nerve-racking times.
Those who are acquainted with the
ordinary hospital operating table and
know how much care is taken to pre-
vent noise and interruption can real
ize what it means TO carry on delicate
operations while great shells are ex-
ploding near by. Another American
surgical team has been working in a
German prisoner camp where wound
ed captives are taken. There were
stiIl others scattered about at various
points.

EGGS SENT SAFELY BY MAIL
New System, by Which They Are
Wrapped and Twisted in Long
Strips of Paper, Is Patented.

The safe delivery of eggs to be
sent through the mail will be insured
and their period of freshness pro-
longed at the same time by the use
of new system which has recently
been patented and is now being
called to the attention of egg deal
ers and shippers, says the Scientific
American. The patent is on a ma
chine which wraps the eggs in a long
strip of paper, the eggs being entire
ly covered by the paper which is
twisted about them, making them re-
semble a length of sausages more
than anything else,
The paper in which they have been
encased has been dampened, and in
this condition the eggs are draped
around collapsible wire frame. AS
the paper dries it becomes taut, and
the eggs are securely held between
the arms of the frame. When they
are placed in box for shipment
they are supported so that they can
not come in contact with each other
nor the box, and they are thus en-
abled to withstand a rough expert
ence which would be disastrous I'M
der ordinary conditions. The frames
are made in one dozen and crate
sizes.
