NIGHT SCHOOL ON TAP

DOUGLAS, Sept. 11.-At meet ing of the public school board at which Superintendent Greene was present last night the matter of op- ening a night school was discussed and favorably considered. There is considerable demand here for such a school, principally among foreign CTS who are desirOus of acquiring sufficient education, together with a knowledge of the English Ian guage, to enable them to do business and get along a la American. While a night school, if opened, will be under the supervision of Prof. Greene, the regular staff of teachers, or any part of it, will not be em- ployed, they already having all the

TREADWELL MINER HELD A PRISONER
 IN GREAT BRITAIN

DOUGLAS, Sept. 11.-It was on August End, 1914, that Germany start ed her army across the Belgian bor- der and on the same day the Aus tria- Hungarian army marched on Ser bia. At that time Jack and Paul Turkovich, brothers and Austrians, were employed at Treadwell in the mines. Paul, fired with the spirit of patriotism and love for the dual monarchy, to which he owed alleg lance, lost no time in starting for his former home, leaving on August 3 for Seattle en route to the land of his nativity.
 Atlantic across the United States, then a neutral country was without incident as was that across the At ltntic from New York to London,
 But when Paul Turkovich reached
 England that country had declared
 war on Austria and he was arrested and detained as an enemy. That was
 more than three years ago and Paul is still a prisoner of war in a Brit
 ish detention camp.
 According to a letter just received | by Jack from his brother Paul, the latter is not reclining on flowery beds of ease, but Is experiencing
 rather hard luck. The letter says
 he Is insufficiently fed and that
 money, usually and under nearly all conditions, an open sesame, will not
 purchase the necessities of life in that part of England where he is held prisoner; that $50 sent him by Jack was duly received but of no use to him there The letter urged ! that something to eat be sent at once something substantial and nOurishing
 Jack Turkovich went shopping yes terday and when he completed his purchases he had invested .$2S in timed meats, sea bread and other substantials which he at once con signed to his brother in the hope that the latter will endure his un- enviable surroundings until the ship ment arrives.

PRO- GERMANS ARE SEVERELY SCORED
 BY JAMES GERARD

HELENA, Mont. Aug. 27. (By mail. )-James w. Gerard. former am bassador to Germany, delivered a stirring address here before $500 people gathered at picnic given by local farmers, the Council of De- fense and the Helena Commercial Club.
 Mr. Gerard paid his respects to the pro-German element in the Unit ed States by asking:
 What do these people want? Do they expect to share with Germany In the conquests of the field?
 The discussion of some Irish in America to favor the German cause brought forth the wish from the speaker that such people could have been with him in the German prison camps where Irish war prisoners were confined.
 When these prisoners were first brought to Germany" he said. they were separated from the others, bet ter treated and given a chance to join Germany against England. Sir Roger Basement was sent to a camp where 2.700 of these men were con fined to urge them to join the Kaiser. He made some thirty con yerts. Then the Irish prisoners proved true to their oaths and threw him out.
 Then" he continued. "persecutions of the Irish began. and if the ex- ponents of Prussianism in this coun- try could have seen those men shot with little or no excuse. dying of tuberculosis brought on by starvation. and go insane from abuse. their op- inion of the matter might change"

PORTO RICO HAS NEW PROPOSITION FOR THE WOMEN
Bill Designed to Allow Them to Hold Office but They Will Not
 Be Given Vote.

SAN JUAN. Porto Rico. Sept. II. A bill designed to give Porto Rico women the right to hold office, but not to vote has been introduced in the House of Representatives by Fulgencio Pinero, Jr, and Antonio Pinero, Unionists, and has had ita first reading.
 Mrs. Ana Duprey, founder of the Suffragist League of Porto Rico. an nounced after a recent conference with the former legislator that she informed him that the women Of Porto Rico objected to the measure and that if 1t became a law in it's present form there would burst ov- CT his head and the head of his party such a storm of righteous fe- male indignation that 1t would be q long time before they recovered from it." Predicting that the bill would not come up for a second reading, Mrs. Duprey said:
 There are two things we are determined to have. suffrage re-. stricted to literate women and the right both to vote and to hold of flee. As the Pinero bill now stands 1t would only place the women of Porto Rico in the most degraded kind of politics instead of giving them an opportunity to show their capability and patriotism"
 A Senate bill provides that women of Porto Rico may both vote and hold office

WORLDS LARGEST AVIATION FIELD FOR THE J. s.
Camp in France Will Be Ten Miles Square and Will Accommodate
 15,0O0 Men.

AMERICAN TRAINING CAMP IN FRANCE. Sept. 11.-America is to
 have the biggest aviation field in the world. The site of the aviation camp is ten miles square and the barracks now being erected will

 men. In sixty days sufficient hang ,ars will be completed to accommo date 1,500 airplanes. The remainder will be finished by January. This is the first announcement tor view of the aviation camp to be permitted by the American military authorities. Hundreds of young Americans are already there in train ing.
 War Plans Take Shape Americas gigantic war prepara tions are just beginning to show |their true extent Tours of inspec ,tion of the organizations of the American quartermaster and the med ical units behind the lines as well as the sites for the permanent aerial establishments strengthens afresh the conclusion that the part of the Unit. led States in this war is going to be tremendous.
 Hundreds of young Americans are now receiving aerial instruction. One training school has been set aside temporarily by the French for use by the Americans until the Ameri- |can plant for training is completed.

ment chairs and the cheerful recOg-
milton and friendliness flashed from
their eyes and back again as quite
a number of girls passed by.
The noticeable thing here was the
equality on which they met. The
smile was as ready and candid on
one side as the other; the girls
looked and laughed toward the sol
diers as naturally as the soldiers
(who have become entitled 10 do so
bv virtue of their calling) looked
and laughed at them: and il was
