An Ancient Superstition.

enemy an Irish colonel was but reV1V-
ing a superstition which dates back to
the ancient days Of Thrace, where the
custom originated of marking lucky
days with white stone and unlucKy
with a black one In its early youth
Rome adopted the custom, and, al
though chalk, not being Indigenous
was chiefly known, as it's name, Creta'
implies. as an import from Crete, 1t
was generally used for the marking OF
lucky days. According to Horace the
marking was done with chalk for gooo
and coal for bad luck.-London enron

JAPANESE STEAMSHIP |. COMPANY DECLARES ENORMOUS DIVIDEND
Directors Decide to Sell Ships to Avoid Loss by Subma- rines - Stockholders Get $500 for $2.5O.
(By Review Leased wireI

KOBE, Japan, July 2S.-A striking example of the Japanese fortunes made in the war shipping business is found in the recent decision of the Chuyetsu Steamship company to de- clare a dividend of 2.000 per cent. One of the steamers of this company re- gently was sunk by the Germans. off the Spanish coast Thereupon the officials decided, rather than run fur ther risks, to take advantage of the high price and dispose of its remain ing vessels.
 At liquidation each shareholder who had originally paid but $2.50 for one share of stock received $500 per share.
 A number of other Japanese ship owners. preferring to profit by the present extraordinary demand, are selling their steamers and placing their capital in some other business. One of Kobe's new shipping million aires recently, sold few steamers at profit of nearly s3.0O0.0O0.

What Is More Valuable Than
 Gold in Russia
(By Review Leased wire)

PETROGRADE, July 2s.-How is Russia to induce its peasant farmers to part with their precious stocks of wheat That is the question which is wrinkling the brow of the minister of supply, NJ. Peshekbonoff. Discussing the subject before the all-Russia con- gress of workmen's and soldiers deie- gates, he said:
 'The greatest difficulty or the food situation just now is that the peas ants refuse to give up their wheat. In the old days, wheat was to be had in exchange for money. But now money is cheap and there is little to be got for it. The peasant is there fore extremely unwilling to exchange his wheat for mere money. The peas ant population has lost it's faiCn in money and sticks to the one thing which it has in its hands.
 There are plenty of things which the peasant needs more than he needs his wheat, but unless you can make those things available to him in his
 markets you won't be able to get his wheat. The forcible seizure of wheat from many million peasants is impos- sible. Yet something must be oone to prevent starvation in our cities If starvation should come to Petro- grad no power on earth could prevent the collapse of whatever government happens to be in power.
 The task before the ministry of supply, then. is to secure for the peas ants supplies of manufactures anu wares which they need. It is getting back to first principles of barter. The task will be difficult because of the lack of raw materials and the disor- ganization of industry. Meanwhile the peasants are hiding their wheat in caches so unsuitable that serious loss is certain to result"

NOah's Ark Bill
 May Be Solution
 Hard Problem,
fRy Review Leased Wire.l )

MEXICO CITY, July 2S.-A project recently was submitted to Rafael Nie- to. under-secretary of finance, which evolved a new idea for the financial betterment of the poorer agricultural classes of Mexico. Among the em- ployes of the department of finance 1t is known as "the Noah's Ark bill" Ir proposes that the government either give to each agricultural family or aid each family to buy two pigs. two goats. two rabbits. a hen and a rooster. a duck and a drake and pairs of other farmyard animals. The project asserts that with but little care and expense the natural increase of these families would speedily drive the wolf from the doors of the Mexican agricultur- ists.

WANT TRAINING CAMPS
 FOR NEGRO STUDENTS

WASHINGTON. D. C.. May 2S.-Gen- eraI Isaac Sherwood, is calling atten- tion to the department of war that ne groes are admitted to the officers training camps that are now opened end urges that they be given a train ing camp to train officers to command the colored regiments. His letter to Secretary of War Baker follows in part:
 T sincerely hope you may have this ruling recinded. as past history will disclose the bravery and loyalty of the negro. which record undoubtedly will be sustained during the present crisis. I believe they are justly entitled to a training camp, to be allowed the oppor- unity of training their officers. One thousand negro college students and graduates have already pledged them selves to enter such a training camp immediately, which will assure you of success"
