WASHINGTON SCOUTS
BASELESS RUMORS.

Washington, Oct. 29.-Undefined
rumors, generally current through
out many sections of the country to-
day purporting to hint at some dis
aster to Americas war forces, are
ascribed by officials to the same pro-
paganda which several weeks ago
flooded the country with similar false
reports calculated to dampen the war
spirit and spread distress and dissat-
isfaction among those at home. Any
casualty reports, it was reiterated to-
day, will be made public promptly by
the government.

WOMEN DOING MEMS WORK.

One of the most striking results of
the great war in Europe, is the extent
to which women are doing the work
of men. Travellers to England and
France report that practically every
able-bodied man is in uniform and
women by the thousands are engaged
in doing mems work-acting as con-
ductors and drivers on the cars and
doing all sorts of heavy work besides.
This shows unexpected possibilities
in what has been mistakenly called
the weaker sex. Women are subject
to ailments which men do not have,
and when so ailing become weak,
helpless sufferers But remedy has
been found. For forty years, Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
has been making such women well
and strong, and as able to do work as
any other woman.-Adv.

LATE STRAGGLERS
BEING ROUNDED UP

Police are rounding up a lot OF
stragglers each night, on account o.
a lot of petty stealing which has beer
complained of quite recently. Two
negro youths who were picked up ear
ly Sunday morning by Officers Har-
per and Marques were fined $40 each
when they couldn't satisfactorily ex-
plain the reason they were running
at full speed when the officers halted
them.
In this instance, it seems, patch
of sugar cane out near ST. Michael's
cemetery, was visited by eight or ten
young negroes, according to the
stories told the police by the owner
but they left in a hurry when the
owner opened fire to brighten them
off, He accomplished his purpose
Il seems, for the officers have the
names of some five or six others
whom they are hunting for as sus-
poets.
