Reichstag Committee Votes to Amend
German Constitution.

German CONSTITUTION,
Amsterdam, May 5.--The first move
to curtail the Kaiser's power has been
taken by the recently appointed con-
stitution committee voted to amend
the German constitution so that here
after all DEGREES ard ordinances Is
sued by the Kaiser must be counter
signed by the imperial chancellor,
who thereupon becomes responsible
to the Reichstag itself for the orders
therein.
Philip Scheidemann, the Socialist
leader, was recently appointed presl'
dent of the committee which was
chosen by order of the Kaiser himself
to rccomment changes in the German
form of government. Its recommen
dations must be approved by the
Re!chstag itself, and presumably aist
by the Kaiser.

broke loose from where it was tied
near May and Sons store, corner
King and Lee streets. this afternoon
at three o'clock, and ran up King
street. attached TO light buggy.
Arriving at Waricld's drug store,
corner King and Pitt streets. the
horse plunged into the doorway of
the store, smashing one Of the doors
into pieces and scattering the glass
in every direction. When the horse
finally came to standstill it was
inside the store, trembling from
fright and bleeding from cuts II
had received apparently from the
broken glass. The horse broke from
the buggy when the wheels struck
the curb or outside of the store, the
thrills being broken off. !:
Myrtle Clark. little girl residing
at 80 north Alfred street. saw the
horse coming and ran inside the
store to get out of its way, but was
struck and injured, sustaining a cut
on her head and bruises on one o
her legs.
Mr.. Saum says he tied the hors'
| near May and Sons store while he
went inside on business and doe
| not know what caused it to run ava!
unless it was because the anira
might have been frightened by ;
small cart which was run past by
little boy. The runaway caused mucI
excitement as King street was quit
crowded with people at the time tn
accident occurred.

STEP TOWARDS DRAFT
Governor Stuart Calls for Services
of sheriffs, Clerks and County
Boards of Health.

The first official step in Virginia
looking to the prompt enforcement
of the draft feature Of the army
bill as soon as it is reported by the
conferees and signed by President
Wilson, was taken yesterday by Gov
ernor Stuart with the dispatchlng
of the following message to hundreds
of county officials.
"Hold yourselves in readiness for
the performance of national duties
of the highest Importance, the exact
nature of which will be telegraphed
to you by me in the next few days
"All papers please copy"
"HENRY C. STUART,
"Govermnor'.
The telegram itself does not in SO
many words refer to the exercise OF
the draft. but there was no neces-
sity, in the circumstances, for more
explicit allusion.
For several days there have been
in the hands of Governor Stuart ana
his military advisers full details OF
the plan which will be followed in
carrying out the War Departments
scheme for drafting the States male
population of arms-bearing age, ana
as soon as the pending army bill
becomes Jaw it will be made public.
Local officials have already received
the blank cards that all men of mill
tary age will be required to fill out
and file with the authorities intrust-
ed with enforcing the draft.
Federal registration OF Virginia
men for service in the armed forces
Of the United States is expected to
begin few days after the army bill
is signed. President Wilson will is
sue formal proclamation as soon
as the measure is law, calling all
men within the minimum and maxi
mum age limits to the colors. The
indications are that the House and
Senate conferees will fix the draft
age at from twenty-one, to thirty.
All men, without regard to occu-
patton or claims to exemption, if
they fall within the age limits fixed,
will be required to present them
selves to the authorities and fill out
the approved registration cards. En-
emptions for physical disability, or
for any other reasons to be declared
acceptable by the War Department,
will be made by the proper authori-
ties after registration has taken
place. Attempts to evade military
Senate conferese will fix the draft
tration, or by falsifying as to ones
age, will be punishable by heavy
fines and Imprisonment.

Now, then, a word about the Pianos.
1t is almost impossible to find language
to give you the proper idea of the gem
eral smash of prices in this department.
Just think of Pianos for $500 and
$4,000. And for $500, $500 and
$500 and $115.00 there are fine Up
right Pianos here now on sale and are
being sold daily to satisfied customers.
For $175.0O, $198.OO, $246.0O, $265.OO
you can find fine Upright Pianos that
would cost you ordinarily something
around the $4,000 mark.

MEN
 UNEMPL PLOYED|N
 CLIFTON FIELD

One thousand men are unemployed in the Clifton district and Phoenix has become a clearing house for these. Through the efforts of Charles Hart man, state manager of the free em- ployment bureau, maintained jointly by the federal state and municipal authorities, two hundred of these men, mostly MeXicans with families, were taken yesterday from condition of unemployment to one where they Will be able to support their families.
 When Hartman received a telegram yesterday from Frank Brown, federal representative of the government em- plOyment bureau, who had just reached Globe from the Clifton dis
 trict, stating that 1000 men were idle in the Clifton district, he became busy at once. Last evening he was able to announce that he had succeeded ill placing 200 fthe idle men in the em- ploy of the Arizona Eastern railroad, to engage in construction and repair work at various points along the lines
 of that company
 In this connection, Hartman issued an appeal to the cotton growers and other employers of labor to commun- icate with him at once their needs for help, and by this means he hopes he will be enabled to place a large proportion of the unemployed through out the state. A glance at the report | of the state bureau issued jointly by | Hartman and Brown indicates that much good is being accomplished | through this agency. During the past month over 500 men have been found
 employment through the bureau which
 has headquarters in this city.
