WAsHiNGroN. Sept a-Swedens ac-
tion in forwarding to the Berlin Foreign
Office messages of Count Luxburg. tho
German Charge d ATaires at Buenos
Ayres. is characterized in Entente diplo-
matte circles here tonight as IAN act
of war"
The gravity of the offence has. II any
thing. increased since yesterday and IL
IL generally predicted in responsible
quarters tonight that the only alterna-
tives remaining to the swedish people
are to eliminate the Government lesderA
responsible or to accept a position OF
open enemies of the United states and
the Entente. ANY middle ground is re-
garded as impossible.
Meanwhile dispatches received in neu-
tral diplomatic circles indicate that Of
ficials at the Stockholm Foreign DfHcs
are pleading ignorance of any knowledge
of the kilograms and are attempting to
impugn the authenticity of the informa-
tlon given out by Secretary Lansing.
Hints Of an investigation being ins'i-
tuted at stockholm. however, show that
Swedish officials apparently are not TOO
sure of their ground in making denials.
sweden Nny OHer Defence.
The matter is regarded as ~ such
immediate and prime importance that
every bit OF information which can he
obtained is being telegraphed here In
response to inquiries.
The consensus tonight is that the
/ swedish Government Will not persist
long in empty deniols. but prepare to
make some defence, possibly admitting
| that 1t is no longer neutral but on the
/ side Of Germany This. il is pointed out
might he the only desperate chance
which the responsible officials could
| TAX" in the situation, AZ this would put
! the matter Of Judging of their acts
! squarely up TO tho swedish people.
| Efforts t. bolster M defence are
! meantime being checked by orders TO
/ British and French ceusors NOT to pass
messages in Swedish code from Ameri-
/ "a into Stockholm. The diplomatic

CATARRHAL DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure catarrhal deafness and that is by constitutional remedy. Catarrhal Deafness is caused by anintlamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube IS intiamed you have rum bling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, deafness is the rssult. Unless the inflammation can be reduced and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever. Many cases of deaf ness are caused by Catarrh, which is an an infamed condition of the mucous surfaces. Halls Catarrh Cure acts thru the blood on the mucous sur faces of the system.
 We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Catarrhal deafness that cannot be cured by Hall s Catarrh Cure. Circulars free All druggists 15c.

SHORE BIRDS ARE MYSTERY
Haunts and Habits Than of Any
Other Feathered Tribe.

Swift and tireless Of flight, late in
May, the hordes Of migrant shore
birds are gone as suddenly as they
appeared. No one sees them go; prob
ably the start Is in the evening. But
by the time we miss them they may be
a thousand miles farther to the north
that is, when they have really decid-
ed to be on the move. Previously they
may have fed leisurely along from
beach to beach, and marsh to marsh,
recuperating from their long flight
across southern seas. But now the YER
nal influence sounds the clarion call,
and they forthwith strike the real limi-
coline pace.
Where do they go? Less is known
about the breeding-haunts and habits
of this mysterious tribe than of any
other In the system Of ornithology.
While very few Of the species linger
on our southern coasts, the great mass

Nor do the bulk Of them stop till they
are where the curiosity of man can
seldom disturb their privacy. The eggs

these species are hardly known to sci

DRESS NOTES

The tunic fashion, united to the
blouse, is specially useful for children.
One mother is making little mauve
and butcher blue, rose pink and pale
tan cotton crepe and easement cloth
slip-on blouses which are practically
tunics as well as corsages, and are
very adaptable to skirts Of last year,
the first freshness of which has been
outworn.
The satchel coat and the satcheI
frock are two Of the most useful pro-
auctions of the year, because pockets
of this shape are really practical. They
are always slung upon the belt and
have safe fastenings. One girl has
made two or three to be worn with
one-coat frock. No valuable time was
wasted in making these belts, for they
were contrived out of pieces of en-
broidery on hand and in one case Of
fooled leather.

SUMMER DISEASE OF CATTLE
"Pinkeye" Is Especially Troublesome

Results in Blindness.

"Pinkeye' Of cattle Is common
disease, especially during summer
months, and sometimes results in total
blindness. It is undoubtedly infec-
tious, and Is believed to spread from
one animal to another through the
medium of flies. The disease runs its
course in ten days or two weeks, az
feeting one or both eyes
A profuse flowing Of tears Is the
first evidence of the attack. The ami
NAL keeps the eye constantly closed.
for it Is very sensitive to light. Grad
ually a film seems to form over the
eye and the ball becomes clouded.
Care at this time is very necessary
and may save the animal from blind
ness. Confinement in a comfortable
stall with all light excluded Is the
best. Laxative food will put the ami
NAL In good condition to ward of
complications. If flies are allowed to
irritate the sore eyes they will prob
ably spread the infection to other ami
mails.

CHAPTER III.

It was, after all. the assistant rector
of Saint Jude's who came up the hill
that hot August day. The news of old
Hilary's death had come down from
the city on an early train. The rector
was away on his deferred fishing trip,
where, having exchanged his clerical
collar for none at all and having bis
tered the end Of his ecclesiastical nose
he was quite happy.
The assistant, Mr.. Ward, whistled as
he climbed the hill. As the hill was
steep, this proved two things-his
vouth. and his lightness of heart. True,
old Hilary Kingston was dead, and vio-
lently done to death. But to Mr.. Ward
death was but the gateway to larger
life: and only very sad In the young
who have not yet lived.
Mr.. Ward was young, broad-shoul-
dered young man, with clear, rather
daen.set ewes, and a firm mouth. The
people of Saint Jude's prophesied that
the world would hear Of Mr.. Ward.
There was only one bar to his progress
ba had too much humor. 1t seemed to
the people of Saint Jude's that religion
Is a serious thing, forgetting that good
cheer is one of the things it must BRING
and it be religion. -,
Boroday met Ward in the hall. oid
Hilary was upstairs by that time, lying
- bis great bed. All the doors and
windows were open, and sunshine filed
the rooms. Ward thought 1t an I'M
usually sane house of mourning.
"Tm glad to see the sum-, ne salu'
$50 many people close things up"

turbed,"

ton and the annual gift to Saint
Jude's.
AS a matter Of fact. the Agrarian af-
fair was calamitous in several ways. It
bore too close resemblance to st.
Louis matter Of several years back, in
which Boroday had come under sus-
picion.
On Tuesday morning, the cash be-
ing more than the bank cared to have
about, two hundred and ten thousand
dollars was sent to the clearing house.
Two clerks from the bank accompanied
the messenger, who went by taxicab.
There are two direct routes to the
clearing house: one along one Of the
great avenues, the. other through the
newspaper district. Here, at ten-thirty
in the morning, things are rather quiet,
and except for vans delivering rolls of
paper, there is little traffic.
The taxicab went by this latter route.
Opposite the Record Office, where the
presses stood, silent monsters waiting
to leap, old Hilary Kingston was
standing, kidgloved and wearing the
gray derby hat he affected. AS the
taxicab bore down toward him he
hailed it.
"Taxi!" he called.
The taxicab slowed down. Old Hill
airy, seeing it occupied, waved it off
| with his stick. But it had come to q
full stop. There was an alleyway be-
side the Record building, and now three
men ran out from there, and thrust re-
volvers through the open windows of
the cab. After that it was hot work.
Marshall of the bank went back with a
bullet through his lung. The bank
messenger fired pointblank, and missed
his target; but old Hilary, gray derby
and all, went down where he stood,
twenty feet away. The uninjured clerk
had an automatic gun, and swept q
| circle with it over the bag which lay
| at his feet. There was no getting in
| side that ring of death. The bandits
retreated, firing as they ran, and
climbed into an automobile up the
street. When the reporters in the Rec
ord Office wakened to the fact that
there was a story under their windows,
the street was clear. Only old Hilary
lay dead on the pavement, with bullet
I Ia his head.
The chauffeur Of the taxicab drove
madly to the hospital with Marshall,
who was dying. and then to police
quarters, where he gave himself up. He
was released, Of course. His name was
Walter Huff. He was shown to be a
new man. but sober and industrious,
one Of the best drivers In the employ
of the taxicab company. It was also
