Albany. April 11.-Adjutant General
Stotesbury to-day virtually turned
down the offer of the New York State
Suffrage party, made through its chair
man. Mrs. Norman De L. Whitehouse,
10 conduct free the state military cen
sus.
This does not mean, according 10
General Stotesbury. that the women
have been snubbed, but does mean that
the census will be taken under the
direction Of the state military authorl-
ties. They will receive the proffered
free aid of all the political parties, SO
cial and civic organizations and lndl-
yiduals unaffiliated with any political
faith.
General Stotesbury explained that ne
rejected the suffrage offer because the
labor could not be intrusted to single
political party The responsibility, he
thought, should rest on military OH
cials.
Opposes Working Method
Also. he is opposed to the working
method proposed by Mrs. Whitehouse-

Governor Whitman's scheme to organ
ize county committees to do the teld
work through enrolment depots will be
more efficient, and that slackers can be
checked up better by various local Off
GERS.
Mrs. Whitehouse kept the wires busy,
but received merely the assurance from
General Stotesbury that the suffraglsts
would be represented in the field work
OF taking the census. She pointed out
that she had political organization in
the $50 Assembly districts, subordinate
committees in the 5000 election dis

John Neville Boyle, Republican can
didate for Congress in the 18th Con-

his chances yesterday by announcing
that he favored woman suffrage. Bal
lots will be cast to-day at a special

Mr.. Boyle and Thomas F. Smith, hi.
Democratic opponent, closed their
campaigns last night with speeches
throughout the district. Every effort
has been made by both candidates to
get the vote out early, and an un-
usually heavy patty vote for special

SEVERAL LIVES LOST
Aztec Armed With Two 5-inch Guns
Manned by Naval Gunners Under
Warrant Officer.

New York, April 2.-The American
steamship Aztec, the first American
armed vessel to sail from port on
this side Of the Atlantic, was sunk
last night by German submarine
Off an island of Brest, France.
The cable message from the Ameri-
can consul at Brest that brought the
news of the ships sinking to her
owners, the Oriental Navigation Com
pany, gave no inkling as to the fate
of her crew.
An Associated Pressidispatch from
Paris said, however, that while some
OF the men aboard the Aztec were res
cued, a number were missing and had
probably perished.
Seventeen Americans.
The Aztec, under command of Capt.
Walter O'Brien, was manned by a
crew of thirty-nine. Seventeen of this
number, including the captain, were
American citizens.
Whether the Aztec fought losing
battle with her undersea adversary
has not been disclosed. Her owners
believe, however, that she had no
chance to fight because she was sunk
at 9:15 o'clock at night when heavy
sea was running.
The vessel was armed with two
5-inch guns, one forward and one aft,
manned by naval gunners under COM
mand of warrant officer.
In expressing the fear that the gun
ners on the Aztec had no chance to
show their skill, it was recalled that
the Cunard liner Laconia, sent to the
bottom off the Irish coast on February
25, was sunk at night and that no sub
marine was seen.
Slow l'reIghter.
Thhe Aztec, a slow moving freight
er of 3,727 gross tons, steamed from
New York for Havre March 18, with
full cargo of foodstuffs and gen
eral supplies, valued at more than
$500,00O. She was due at Havre to-
morrow and probably was less than
100 miles from that port when tor

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 ca
tarrhal deafness, and that is by a
constitutional remedy. Catarrhal
Deafness is caused by an innamcd
condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube IS
innamed you have rumblng sound
or imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed, Deafness is the re-
suit. Uulcss the inflammation can be
reduced and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroycd forever. Many cases of deaf
ness are caused by catarrh, which is
an inflamcd condition of the mucous
surfaces. Halls Catarrh Medicine
acts thru the blood on the mucous
surfaces of the system.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Catarrh Deafness that
cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh

HEALTH IS WEALTH"

Mr. citizen, have you taken into
consideration, in making pains for
your material welfare during the
coming summer and fall, that the
health of yourself and your family
may determine whether or not this
is to be successful year for you? Ii
you are a merchant, have you stop
ped to reflect that case of typhoid
fever in your family will affect your
assets in exactly the same way as
the loss of valuable shipment OF
merchandise? If you are farmer,
has it occurred to you that such
an illness may offset the value of a
bountiful crop on many acres of
your land? If you are wage earn
er have you considered that illness
OF yourself or a member of your
family will materially affect he
plans, you have made for the in
vestment of your savings?
You have thought, of course of
how unfortunate it would be for
such illness to happen" in your
family. You have insured your
merchandise against loss. You have
insured your house and barn
against fire. You have perhaps ev-
EN- taken out an insurance policy
to provide for the necessities of life
Tor your family in case you become
Ill. But have you given to the ques-
ton OF preventing such illness the
thought and study that so import
ant matter deserves? And many
OF our most serious and costly dis
eases are entirely preventable.

HOME ECONOMICS

The Colorado War Council is
making special drive this year
along the line of home economies.
This drive consists first in train
ing the housewife to the most econ.
omical use of food and the preven-
tion of waste. In addition to this
a comprehensive plan is under con-
sideration, which can probably be
worked out before the vegetables
and fruits are harvested which
will include the organization of a
number of flying squadrons" at
the State Agricultural college at
Fort Collins. These will be sent ov-
er the state to instruct the house
wives of Colorado in home canning,
community canneries and canning
clubs, the use Of evaporators, cellar
storage OF roots and tubers, pit
storage of roots and cabbage, farm
slaughtering and curing of meats,
storage of eggs by waterglass, pre-
serving of fruits and the making of
all kinds of jellies, pickles and rel
ishes
1t is the general purpose to have
these flying squadrons" visit the
various communities in each coun.
