Today's stock market was of no
great interest to anybody, reflecting,
as it did, conflicting currents set in
motion by the professional operators,
who were more or less puzzled by what
appeared at intervals to be good out

The result was wavering market of
very tame aspect, with prices narrow

by brief period of frmness, there

BAD FOR THE HAIR

x < X x X x x x x * x x x X x
Soap should be used very carefully,
If You want to keep your hair looking
its best. Most soaps and prepared sham
poos contain too much aIllali This dries
the scalp, makes the hair brittle, ana
ruins it.
The best thing for steady use it Just
ordinary mulsified coeoanut oil (Which
is pure and greaseless), and is better
than the most expensive soap OF any
thing else you can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls will cleanse
the hair. and scalp thoroughly Simply
moisten the hair with water and rub
it in, It makes an abundance of rich,
creamy lather, which rinscs out easily,
removing every particle Of dust, dirt,
dandruff and excessive oil The hair
dries quickly and evenly, and it leaves
the scalp soft, and the hair fine and
silky, bright, lustrous, fluffy and easy

Open Season Now On
For German Submarines

San Francisco, April 17.-That a
hunt for German submarines and sub
marine bases off the coast of Lower
California and Mexico is now in pro.
grss, under the direction of the navy
department, was reported this after
noon. United States warships have ben
cruising in these waters for two weeks,
the reports stated.
Captain GiImer, head of the Twelfth
naval district, would not confirm these
reports. 1t was stated in other quar-
ters, however, that such a hunt is in
progress.
1t is understood the navy department
is striving to put to rest rumors that
have been circulating on the Pacific
coast for two years regarding subma,
rine bases and coaling stations on the
Mexican coast. Small coves and nina
ture bays there are said to have been
examined.

German Socialists
Want Action and Not
After War Promises

Amsterdam, April 17.--German Of
ficial promises of governmental reforms
without any steps in fulfillment, have
resulted in formation of new anti-gov-
ernment party, Berlin dispatches an
nouneed today. The new group, an off
shoot from the regular German socialist
party, is to be known as the indepen-
dent socialist democratic party. Its
platform is democratization of the Ger
man government. Hugo Haase and
George Ledebour, active leaders in the
new reform movement, are bitterly op-
posed to the supine manner in which
their brother socialists have received
mere promises Of electoral reform with
out any action to this end.
The Berlin dispatches today said
there were at least 15 socialists in the
reiehstag who formally subscribed to
the principles of the new party.

Alaska Pleased at
Killing Of Krause

Juneau, Alaska, April 17,-The body
of Edward Krause, escaped murderer,
who was shot and killed Sunday after
noon by Arvid Franzen, was brought
into town yesterday afternoon and a
sigh of relief spread over southwestern
Alaska.
With a bullet in his body, Krause still
had enough strength to make desper-
ate attack upon Franzen, though he
finally was brought to the ground with
a second shot. Franzen told the story
of the capture of the murderer to a cor
oner's jury here, which exonerated him
and recommended that the 81 900 re-
ward offered by Governor Strong for
Kause, dead or alive, be paid to Fran
zen.

prove that the court martial
investigated all the circum-
stances with care and passed
on the merits OF each case. 1t
was proved that the thirteen
who have been executed dis
obeyed the orders of their su-
perior officer, invaded Hous-
ton and killed fifteen persons,
They were guilty both of NUT
my and murder.
The law gives the depart
ment commander final author
ity to approve sentences in
time at war. In these cases it
it was we'll that there was no
public notice of such approval
until the sentences had been
carried out. This course shut
off a nation wide agitation by
sentimentalists for clemency.
Clemency in such cases is un
thinkable in war time. 1t is
different with respect to sleep
ing pickets, farmer boy who
never learned to stay up late"
as Lincoln put 1t. Circnm-
stances surrounding even de
sertions occasionally justify
clemency. But open mutinies.
especially when they are &C
companied by murder. as in
Houston case, cannot be con
doned without danger of such
a disintegration of the army
as has ruined Russia. 1t
makes no difference whether

unproven wrong. The least
that can be said at this time is
that the Negro soldier IS en-

sore a set of square men of
his country. Why Austrians,
our country's enemies have
been led to think they can
take the law in their own

with impunity in Wyoming
