germany regrets
PLOT IN NORWAY
Bomb Courier Is Discharged and
Disclaim Sent Government.
1al TO The Washington Herald

Special TO The Washington Herald.
London, July ia Copenhagen
dispatch to the Exchange Telegraph
Company. says 1t is reported Official
ly at Chrisuania, that Germany has
expressed regret to Norway for the
acts OF Germans, in connection with
the bomb plot recently revealed.
The German reply to the Norwe-
gian note gives a long explanation of
the case. and says the German min
lister at Christiania has been directed
to tender an apology, and that Aron
Rautenfels, German courier. in
whose possession explosives were
found. has been dismissed. The Ger
man government, the note says, has
made a thorough investigation, in
consequence of which It finds that
the trunks containing the bombs and
other explosives, which were sent
from Germany to Christiania. were
forwarded some months ago from a
central military depot to the chief
officer OF the German foreign office,
with the request that they be shipped
to Christiania in the care of a cour-
ier.
The military authorities at the de-
pot, the note continues, stated that
IN order to carry on warlike opera
tions on enemy territory they did not
hesitate to permit the passage of ex-
plosives through Norwegian terri
tory. The German government strong
ly disapproved the proceeding of the
military authorities, whose action, II
says, can be justified in no way. In
future all trunks OF couriers will be
examined by the foreign Office.

HOROSCOPE.
Monday, July 16, 1917.

Astrologers read this as an unim-
portant day in planetary direction.
While Mars is strongly evil and both
Saturn and Neptune mildly adverse,
Uranus and the Sun are in benefic as
pect.
All the signs appear to indicate that
before the end of this month a deeper
realization of war will be apparent
Under this rule peace agitation will
develop more strongly, and, as has
been prognosticated before. If this
peace inclination comes to naught, the
struggle will be long.
For today uncertainty and unrest
appear to be forecast for military
men, who will be brought face to face
with realities, owing to some unex-
pected event.
1t is not an auspicious day for Jour-
neys on the water or for naval en-
gagements. Great activity is seen
by the seers where our ships are con-
cerned.
Again the aged are warned to be
careful as they are much more liable
to sudden death under this rule than
usual.
This is supposed to be a fairly
lucky sway for all who seek appoint
ments, whether for high place or low.
Love anairs should flourish while
this confguration prevails, but Uranus
gives warning of deception and lack
of constancy.
Scandals and much murmuring
among the people seem to be fore
shadowed.
Congress is warned of criticism that
will be unwarranted, but it may cost
members their seats, owing to agita-
tion growing out of the war.
The West comes under a direction
making for great sensations.
Fame for women again is prophe-
sled. One will gain distinction by a
supreme sacrifice that will write her
name in history.
Persons whose birthdate 1t is have
the augury of rather a successful
year, IL they attend strictly to busi-
ness.
Children born on this day may be
high strung and restless, fond of
change and impetuous, but lucky in
all things.

they are smothered and suffocated
by too much family life. Last winter
young girl Of good family, mysteri-
ously left a beautiful and luxurious
home and for weeks and weeks the
police Of the whole country searched
in vain for her. Her frantic parents
were sure she had been kidnapped by
white slavers. They knew she never
would have gone away of her own
volition because, as they tearfully de-
clared, never since the day of her
birth had she even been out from
under their eyes, or permitted to go to
school, or visit a little friend. or see
boy, or do anything, without her
mother or father as a chaperon.
Eventually the girl was found work
ing as a maid in a family, and by
way OF excuse for her escapade she
said that she was so tired of being
watched, and never having any lib
erty, that she couldn't stand II any
longer and ran away to get a little
freedom. And she wept when she was
discovered and had to go back home.
Girls leave home because their
homes are places of discord and
strife instead of being abodes of hap
piness and cheerfulnes. They leave
home because they are cursed with
mothers who nag and fret at them
all the time, or they have fathers who
are grouchy and are surly and make
home a place to be avoided and fed
from. IL possible.
They leave home because their par
ents are out Of all sympathy with
them and do not realize that young
people must have pleasure and amuse-
ment, and that IL they cannot find
1t under their own roofs they will
find 1t elsewhere-even IL that else
where is the public dance hall, and
the back room of a saloon, and even
tually the street Girls leave home
because they are bored. because they
resent being treated like slaves or
babies after they are grown UP, but
they never leave the homes where
there is love and tenderness and un-
derstanding and justice and where
wise father and mother guide them
into the right path so gently and sub
tly they do not know they are being
led.
Fathers and mothers, take heed OF
your girls and see whether you are
driving them away from home or not.

YOUR WEDDING DAY

Mary Morrison.
StcnewalI Jackson was %. when he
married his second wife. Mary Anna
Morrison. This wedding took place
just sixty years ago today.
About the time of his marriage
Jackson wrote to a friend as follows:
Il shall never be contented until I
am at the head of an establishment
in which my friends can feel at home
in Lexington. / have taken the first
important step by securing a wife
capable of making a happy home and
the next thing Is to give her an op-
portunity.'
Jackson sought to marry the second
time merely in order to make a home
for himself but this was far from the
truth for he was very much in love
with the charming lady whom he
choose to do the honors of his home
in Lexington.
Mrs. jackson contrived to make her
husbands home all that he had
dreamed IL might be. The Furnishings s
were simple but everything was per-
fectly appointed so that, to quote
Jackson's own words, THE doors
swung on golden hinges softly" Jack
son at the time of his marriage was
a college instructor and thus had lei
sure for reading and study. Oddly
enough he always read and studied
standing up at a high desk in his
library. Often during long evenings.
however, he reclined while his wife
read to him. He spent much OF his
time in his garden. with his wife u.s.
ually at his side.
Jacksons first child by his second
marriage died, as had also the little
daughter who died with her mother,
Jackson's first wife. But third
daushter came to bring Joy to Jack
sons heart.

It's very sad to tell,
Was leaning from her window,
Into the street she fell
She slowly drifted down and down
In colors gay and bright,
Until she hit trolley car,
And then she bursted quite.
And this happened in Soapbubble
Town New Mother Goose Land. And
wasn't it strange, Puss Junior was on
the trolley car, the very trolley car
on which little Soaphy fell. You see.
our little traveller had. left his good
gray horse in the country, for he had
gone lame, and so Puss was obliged
to continue his journey on foot. But
after a while he had come to the
trolley line and had boarded a car, and
when he reached Soapbubble Town.
little soaphy Soapbubble and all her
neighbors were leaning out of win
dows to see the son Of the famous
Puss in Boots.
"Oh dear met" sighed Puss Junior,
little Soaphy Soapbubble has come
to sad ending just like Humpty
Dumpty." And then on went the
trolly car with our little traveller and
by and by they came to the end of
the line and Puss got of.
OF course he was now in the coun-
try, and there were few houses to be
seen, but Puss was accustomed to
lonely roads and deep forests, SO he
trudged along whistling a merry tune,
for he knew, how to whistle by this
time as well as a canary bird. And
after a while he came to a stile and
there stood a funny little man with a
fishing pole.
Good day, Mr.. Fisherman" cried
Puss. touching his cap like a soldier.
The little man looked up and smiled.
And how is my good Sir Cat?" he
cried. and then he took a little silver
fish out of his basket and handed IL
to Puss.
Cats are fond of fish. I know for
certain laughed the funny little
fisherman.
You are right. my good SIR" said
