At indianapolis
Follows.

A letter jst received b yMrs. w. F.
Stirman, of this city, from her sister,
Mrs. William Howe. who formerly
lived here. but who now resides in
indianapolis, tells of an unusual eX-
perience which the latter had recent
ly while acting as supervisor for the
gauZe work at the Red Cross work
rooms in indianapolis when q strange
woman came in and asked to be al
lowed to make some of the three yard
rolls.
The request was granted and the
woman was given some gauze with
which to make the rolls. She work.
ed all day doing nothing that would
arouse suspicion. No one knew the
worker and nothing was thought Of
her calling until Mrs. Howe had gone
home that night. When she began to
ponder over the work done she felt
impressed to make an investigation
and on making an examination the
next morning found that a white
powder had been scattered through
the folds. When examined by a
chemist this was found to be a dead
ly poison. The facts were reported
to the officials and the woman was
arrested ps she was preparing &c.
leave the city and she is now being
held as a German spy.
These facts were related by Mrs.
Stirman to the ladies on duty at the

DOES DRINK AT
Feet BUSINESS?

A few days ago a gentleman in
conversation with the head Of an
Ohio industry which employs 4,00C
men asked to what extent drink af-
fects the men. The president re-
piled that he did not know, but would
call in his efficienc- superintendent
"Does drink affect the efficiency
of our men," was asked the eff
icency man.
"Yes, SIR"
"To what eXtent?"
"At least 5 per cent"
"That means. then" said the pres
ident, "that every day we lose the la
Dor of 200 men because Of drink"
"That is the minimum loss" said
the efficiency expert.
"Our lowest wage in this plant is
SO day." continued the head of the
concern. ave are losing through
drink on the part of our men at least
$500 every day the plant is in opera
ton. That is not good business"

FEEDING GERMANY
THROUGH NEUTRAL PORTS

When the German newspapers
themselves quote fats for FRYING at
$4.05 a pound. goose fats at S5.36,
fowls for soup at 81 a pound, horse
meat at SO cents minimum and other
meats upward in proportion. it is OBJ
vious that fats and meats have gone
beyond the reach of all save the rich
in Germany. And fats Cor Northern
peoples are a most important article
in sustaining human dietary.
This was the situation when Ger
many was being supplied with large
quantities of foods and fats from ad-
jacent neutral countries which were
made good to them by imports from
the United States. What it will be
when these imports are cut off re-
mains to be developed.
There is nothing in this situation
to encourage greatly the various neu-
trail commissions on their wav to the
United States or already here. They
will by their mere presence empha-
siez the Importance of the new Amer
lean embargo as factor in winning
the war against the German autocra-
cy. We have no purpose to interfere
with their feeding of Germany. They
can export there as much of foods
and fats as they want to and get as
rich out Of the trade as they can.
But thew must sacrifice their own
amplitude of living in doing so. They
are not 10 he permitted to draw upon
their own vital supplies to help out
our enem" and then freely make
good the deficiencies bv shipments
from this side.
These neutral embargo commits
sions will be welcomed and heard on
any reasonable matter they have to
present. But on this proposition of
dulling a great weapon of war now
in our hands for their enrichment in
giving air to the enemy they will APP
peal TO deaf ears.-New York World.
