to forego that satisfying feeling
which he experienced while the
amazons were marching to the front,
he expressed the following hopeful
conviction in Chicago:
al shouldn't be surprised II IN
the course of time American women
should do the same as the Russian
women. American women are just
as noble. lust as illustrious as Rus
sian women. And when the time
comes-I shall not be surprised wnen
IL comes-we likewise shall see Low
American women sacrifice their blood
on the battlefield ~
"Well. we do not believe that Mr..
Roots desire will be fulfilled. This
country does not send its women
to- the slaughter, even when IL
kuld produce pleasure to Mr.. Root:
For the present there are plenty Oh
men in America. And these men do
not think the same way as MI. hoot
did in his youth. Even MI. Root was
a young, healthy and strong man
once upon a time. And 1t IS surprls,,
ing that just at that time the 0iVu
War broke out, but Mr.. Root tailed 70
volunteer as a soldier. And lnoeed
the country called him very earnest
ly. the same country, one OF whose
most prominent, most reactionary,
richest and most manly statesmen IS
Elihu Root, former Senator, former
Secretary of Foreign Affairs, to whom
at his arrival in New York the com
mittee that was organized TO MS
honor will present a gold medal. ,
would it be impossible, instead OF
a gold medal, TO arrange some pleas
ing murder to his honor"

Broadway Reproduced at
Narragansett Pier Ball

NARRAGANSETT PIER, R. l., Aug.
1O.-A small but lively slice of the
Great White Way was reproduced, even
to the traffic policeman at Times
Square, at the Broadway ball, given to-
night in the Casino under the direction
of Talbot Hanan, of New York, for the
benefit of the Navy Comfort League OF
Rhode Island.
The Casino was ablaze with lights
and resounded with the din and clatter
of Broadway as the dancers in gay
costumes, representing stage celebri-
ties and girls from the "Follies," one
stepped from Forty-second Street al
most to Columbus Circle.

CHICAGO, Aug. 10.-The Kaiser was
extirpated from the Chicago public
school speller to-day under circum-
stances that sizzled with possibilities
for trouble. Efforts to bar taxpayers
and newspaper men from the room in
which the elimination of the objection
able page was staged brought hot en-
counter on, in which Trustee Anthony
Czarnecki was partly victorious.
He managed to gain admittance to
the scene of operations, but failed to
get the others in, and was overridden
in an attempt to have the work done &C
cording TO his own plan. Police were
on the side of the faction in possession
of the spoilers, and for a time refused
to let any one pass except school Off
Gals.
1t was scheduled that Superintendent
Shoop, Trustee Czarnecki and Business
Manager Guilford should meet at the
supply house of the board this morning
TO decide on the method Of taking out
the page containing the Kaiser's eulogy
and TO start the work. Other plans
we're laid by Vice-President Severing-
haus, who led the fight at the last board
meeting against a resolution request
ing 100000 parents TO have their chill
dren cut the Kaiser out of the spelling
book.
Trustee Czarnecki in vain protested
against the summoning Of the police
and the refusal TO admit taxpayers to
the premises. Mr. Coffin said the work

OYSTER BAY, N. Y, Aug. TO-
Colonel Theodore Roosevelt to-day
added his voice to the growing demand
that the German-language press of this
country should either be suppressed at
once or else forced to print it's publ
cations hereafter in English.
He also directed blast against paci-
fists and pro-Germans, "who," he said,
stand to-day exactly where the VAL
landighams and Copperheads stood in
I the Civil War.
"This applies" he added, "to Sena-
tors. Congressman and newspaper edi-
tors as much as to any one"
Opposes Papers in German
"As one first STEP" the Colonel con-
| tinued, 81 trust that Congress immedi-
ately will pass law refusing to allow
any newspaper to be published in Ger
man or in the language of any other
of our opponents while this war lasts.
at is all very we'll to stop The APP
peal to Reason and similar Socialistic
papers, but at the same time let US
make the 'New-Yorker Staats-Zeitung'
and the illinois Staats-Zeitung' and
other German papers talk in language
ordinary Americans can understand, so
that we shall all know just what they
are saying and doing.
"In this country now there is no room
for 5000" men, who are half German
and half American. We must all be
Americans or all Germans, and nothing
else. Many of the best friends have,
and the best Americans | know, are of
German blood.
"These men, who, like myself, have
German blood in their veins, but are
nothing but Americans, are entitled ex-
actly to the same treatment as other
Americans, and we challenge it as our
right. In return we demand that every
German-American become all American.
IF they stay at half or quarter Ger
man-Americans they should be shipped
back to Germany where they belong"
Explains Meyer Dispatch
In commenting on a dispatch from
Amsterdam, in which DR.. Kuno Meyer
is quoted as saying that Colonel Roose-
welt told him a German victory would
entitle the empire to compensation and
indemnity, the Colonel said:
What | did say was that if Germany
were victorious she would undoubtedly
exact the utmost limits of compensa-
ton and indemnity she could wiring
from all of her adversaries, including
the United States, and added that she
would take them from the United
States, whether we went to war or not"

of eliminating the page would begin
with the police guard on hand, and that
if Mr.. Czarnecki did not like it he could
join the men on the outside who were
barred from the building.
Louis Hess and other employees In
the supply department, together with
Mr.. Guilford, were present TO receive
the instructions as TO the method Of
tearing out the pages from the 10000
spoilers in the storeroom.
After the plans were decided upon
and the orders given TO go ahead and
cut out the pages in accordance with
the sample work shown by Superin-
tendent Shoop and Trustee Czarnecki
the school officials went to the board
rooms, but not until fat refusal was
made by Mr.. Coffin to have the police
removed and the newspaper men and
taxpayers admitted.
At the board rooms, when the citizens
who were barred from witnessing the
work OF cutting out the page made a
protest against the treatment and the
police guard, Trustee Czarnecki was
their sponsor, and voiced his objections
in no quiet or subdued manner.
ave will keep our word and do the
work of cutting out the pages, but we
want no more publicity about this
thing" said Mr.. Coffin.
at is an outrage, low-down trick
and an insult to keep reputable people
from entering into the supply house
merely because they are true Ameri-
cans and anti-kaiserites," said Car
necki. "These editors and heads Of or
CARNATIONS of taxpayers are as repu-
table and law-abiding as any member
on this board, and II is n disgrace to
make this demonstration against these
elements in this way"

Mobilization in
The Kitchen

August is not too late to plant spin
ach, lettuce, radishes, beets and tur-
nips. Early kinds that mature rapidly
are the ones to plant. A thorough
preparation Of the soil, either new
ground or soil which has produced a
crop, is urged. Straight rows, 1t Will
be remembered, make cultivation a JOY,
and turnips, radishes and beets should
be planted with but half inch Of soil
over them. Spinach and lettuce do not
need that much.
After being up nicely the plants
should be thinned to about these dis
tances: Beets and turnips, three inches;
lettuce, six inches, and radishes and
spinach. one inch. However, beets
should be thinned first to one-half or
one inch; then later on, after half to
two-thirds of them have been used for
greens, the remainder should be al
lowed TO mature. In the case OF let
tuce, young, tender leaves may be pro-
duced by not thinning.
