Lie No. 1-Newspaper Offices.
the government departments and
even the White House itself have
been bombarded recently by quer-
les from many sections of the
country concerning preposterous
stories about Secretary Tumulty.
Usually the questioner wants to
know whether il is true that the
presidents secretary has been
sent to Fort Leavenworth as a spy.
Now MFR. TumuIty is hearing
from his friends ON the subject,
and he authorized this statement
at the White House;
For several days friends have
written, telegraphed and tele-
phoned me from all parts of the
country stating that rumors are
being assiduousIy spread alleging
that | have been imprisoned at
Fort Leavenworth.
All sorts of fancifal tales are
being passed from mouth to mouth
by innocent persons who are thc
victims Of a systematic and insid-
ious propaganda to weaken conf
dence in officials OF the federal
government.
"Oficials Of the department of
justice are investigating the origin
Of this conspiracy TO determine
who have been guilty Of actually
starting this falsehood"
No one has been able TO account
for the circulation of these re
ports Most OF them have come out
OF the middle west, and apparently
they have been spread from one
end OF the country to the other.
The above story has been cur
rent for two weeks. 1t il a sample
Of the kind Of lies that German
sympathizers have been spreading
broadcast.
Lie No. 2-In several southern
and eastern training camps re-
ports have been circulated that
white troops were planning d gen
eral massacre of blacks. The re-
port made 1t almost impossible to
get Negro laborers to work about
the camps.

lated in every part Of the country

of our soldiers was never safe

HOROSCOPE.
Saturday, June 1s, 1917.

SAAuEuass June lop Iblds
Astrology reads this as an unfortu-
nate day, for Mars, Saturn, Uranus,
and Venus are all in evil place.
1t Is a day in which to guard against
discouragement and depression, for
planetary influences all tend to a pes
simistic outlook on life.
Mars rules with power, making for
growth Of the military spirit and in
crease Of patriotism through empha-
sis on national dangers.
The signs give foreknowledge OF
period of many army problems in.
which questions concerning promotions
and assignments of officers will bring
about criticisms in the public prints
as well as among soldiers.
Under this rule of the stars men
past 20 are belived to be at a dis
advantage Veterans will be super
seded everywhere by the young, for
this is written in the skies and II ap-
plies not alone to the fighting strength
Of the country, but to every branch of
activity.
Uranus In adverse mood is supposed
to make likely damage through ex-
plosions, and both New York and
Washington have a sinister direction
OF the stars.
Women should be exceedingly care
ful while this sway continues as they
may speak and act unwisely.
While the planets presage illnesses
of many sorts, especially diseases of
the nerves, the seers prophesy
through the growth Of knowledge of
mental control. .r
Socialists are warned of danger
through wrong leadership of peace ad-
vocates. Riots are indicated and
women as well as men may be in
volved. . 49, ...-
This is most unlucly day for con-
tracts or partnerships and II will be
well to delay signing papers Of any
sort.
Plotters of every kind gain power
while the stars have such sway as
rules this days horoscope.
Persons whose birthdate It Is should
beware Of their conduct with the op-
posits sex during the coming year.
They may expect anxiety over money
matters.
Children born on this day may have
troubles in both business and domes-
tic affairs, but they may enjoy periods
Of success and happiness. They are
likely to be investigators and fond Of
experimental science. 81

Justice, and progress.
