Has Been Done Hubert.
George Gregory. the employer Of G.
w. Hubert, whom the police arrested
Wednesday as suspect in the Wins
low holdup. has rushed to the defense
OF Mr.. Hubert, whom Mr.. Gregory
declares to be an honest and industrt-
Gus working man. Mr.. Gregory feels
that the police department has done a
great injustice to Mr.. Hubert, and
wants the public to know what he
thinks Of Hubert. In communica :
ton to the Times Republican Mr..
Gregory says:
Editor Times-Republican: ! would
like to occupy little OF your space, to
correct as far as possible a great In
justice that I feel has been done to
a steady, honorable, Industrious, and
honest working man, his wife, and
family.

Gus Karas, the Greek railroad laborer
arrested for shooting Mr. and Mrs. E.
r. Winslow in the attempted holdup OF
the grocery store Tuesday night, was
I the gunman who held up G. NJ. Whit
ing, street car motorman. at the
south end Of the viaduct Sunday night.
This. and the release Of two Of the
suspects, were the important develop
incnts in the case. over night.
Mr.. and Mrs. Winslow are gaining
steadily at st. Thomas hospital. Their
physician thought both would be able
to sit up and make an EFFORT to iden-
tify Karas within the next twenty
four hours.
Voice and Cost Identified.
Whiting, taken to the jail to see
Karas late Wednesday, identified his
voice before he saw the prisoner as
: the voice Of the man who held him up
at the point Of q gun and took his
money from him. Karas was talking
10 another prisoner in an adjoining cell
when whiting entered the Jail. After
seeing Karas. Whiting was not posi-
tive as regards identification Of his
person. He thought Karas resembled
the holdup man, but he was more Ger
tain Of the Identification Of the voice.
According to the police James c..
Blackburn, superintendent of trans
portation OF the Iowa Railway and
Light Company, identified the coat
xaras wore when arrested as a coat

and has paid for small home with
the exception of about 800. This should
prove his industry and thrift.
II have never heard a suspicion that
he was ever connected with any trans
action Of a questionable nature, and
was never more surprised In my life
than when was informed OF his ar
rest.
Vie reached home Tuesday evening
about SEQ o'clock and was not away
from the house until he started to
work early Wednesday morning. This
can be established beyond the question
Of doubt !. Whatever reason there
was for his arrest 1t would seem that
some one acted very indiscreetly. to
say, the very least Mr. Hubert was
at his work as usual and where he
could have been reached at any time
that sufficient evidence was at hand to
warrant his arrest. 1t would appear
TO me that man who has lived
here for ten or more years, has steady
employment. a respectable family. and
owns home, would be entitled to
much more consideration than this man
received. or that would have been ac-
corded to the most suspicious tramp
who might be passing thru.
Il understand that one of the Wins
lows told an OFFICER that the man
looked like Mr.. Hubert. II she had
said that he looked like Mayor Mil
lard, or Judge Cummings. would either
of these been taken on John Doe"
warrant? Is a man who works every
day and uses his earnings to provide
for and rear a family. entitled to any
less consideration than the most promi-
nent citizen of our community in mat
tiers of this nature?
The public expects that officers will
do their duty, complains IL wrongs are
not redressed and criminals apnre-.
hended, but the arrest Of innocent men
without even reasonable suspicion and
only lessons the chance Of apprehend-
Ing the real criminal The following
of a false scent usually leads directly
away from the true one. The arrest of
10p innocent men only increases the
cause for censure at allowing the
guilty one to escape.
Mr.. Hubert has good wife who
cares for her home and is doing her
full duty in rearing a large family Of
bright children who would be credit
to any home. He feels very keenly this
disgrace that has been so thoughtless
ly, tho no less cruelty, brought upon
him. and his very estimable family,
and feel 1t my duty to do everything
in my power to correct any unfayorable
impression that this wholly unwar-
ranted action may have caused.

Our Food Counted on by
German High Com
manders
ADMITTED BY
REICHSTAG LEADER
Embargo on Neutrals Is a
Blow to Teutons, Who
Are Now Frightened

London, July 24.-That high German
command had based its calculations on
food supplies which America has been
sending to neutrals became known, ac-
cording to the Daily Mail, through the
statement of Herr Arzberger, head of the
Catholic party in the Reichstag, made
before a secret session of that body.
The newspapers referred to this address
as a 'bombshell." Herr Erzberger re-
marked that although Americas entry
into the war is of little military value
it was important owing to the extent
to which Germany was dependent on the
neutrals for food and other supplies.
He said that America had decreed that
she would not permit exports to neu-
trails as long as these neutrals exported
to Germany. Consequently, Herr Err
berger said, Germany would very shortly
lose its source of supply. The terrible
fact, he said, had to be faced that the
authorities had too entirely fig
ured on these supplies and that nobody
in authority could find an answer or
give any idea from where these supplies
were to come.

Canadian Conservation.

Ottawa, Ont, July 24.-To gain es-
sential food supplies for Great Britain,
the allied armies and nations, a new
conservation plan has been set in mo-
ton in Canada, according to an official
announcement yesterday. Solution of
food problems will become operative
through central advisory committee of
government representatives, churches, la
Dor organizations, educational depart
ments and institutions, urban interests,
farmers, rural municipalities and mems
and women's organizations. Between
the food controllers Office, the federal
and provincial governments, the national
and local organizations of public char.
acter, there is to be close cooperation.

Lemons Written and
Beautify the Skin!
Make Cheap Lotion

The juice of two fresh lemons strained
into bottle containing three ounces Of
orchard white makes whole quarter
pint of the most remarkable lemon skin
beautitier at about the cost one must
pay for small jar of the ordinary cold
creams. Care should be taken to strain
the lemon juice through fine cloth so no
lemon pulp gets in, then this lotion will
keep fresh for months. Every woman
knows that lemon Juice is used to bleach
and remove such blemishes as freckles,
salowness and tan, and is the ideal skin
softener, smoothener and beautifer.
Just try it! Make up quarter pint
of this sweetly fragrant lemon lotion and
massage it daily into the face, neck,
arms and hands. 1t should naturally
help to whiten, soften, freshen, and bring
out the hidden roses and beauty of any
skin. 1t is wonderful for rough, red
hands.
Your druggist will sell three ounces of
orchard white at little cost, and any
grocer will supply the lemons.-Adv.

Italian Minister BissoIati Sees No Hope

form.

Rome, July 24.-The naming of DIR.
Michaelis as German chancellor shows
there is no hope of Germany democrat
izng herself, in the opinion of Minister
BissoIati.
His Speech" the minister said in an
interview yesterday, has caused col
lapse of the illusions that Germany her
self would find strength to correct
her own defects.
"The facts now prove these can only
be corrected by outside action. That
outside action must be applied by tile
allied nations. 1t must be applied in
the interest of international well being,
founded on the principles of right and
justice. That aim necessarily means
we must repress all brutal, aggressive

Women Too Ambitio IS

Excessive ambition leads all sorts OF
women to exert themselves beyond their
strength. The girl striving for honors in
school. the busy housewife, the shop
girl. the society climber or leader, all
overtax their natural powers Of endur-
ance. Then came nervous troubles, back
aches, headaches. frequently organic trou-
bles, which reduce them almost to de-
spsir-.
Women suffering thus should first rec
ognize the necessity Of putting on the
brakes and slowing down. Besides this,

their health, the best reliance is upon

Coal seems to be rather an uninter-

illuminate and to heat our homes is
product OF the distillation OF coal VAL
liable chemicals, such as benzine. naph-

TO TRY QUEBEC SPAN AGAIN.
New Bridge May Be Put in Place Next
Fall

Montreal, July 24-It is stated by an
official of the Dominion Bridge company
that the new central steel span for the
Quebec bridge over the st. Lawrence riv-
er, between Quebec and Lewis, Que, has
been completed and that assembling will
begin at once. The officials state that
the span will in all probability be float
ed in the early part of September, posi-
bly, on the anniversary of the fall of the
first span last year as it was being put
into place.
No change has been made in the style
of the construction of the span and the
method of putting it in place will be
practically the same as that employed
last year. The engineers state that they
know of no new or more feasible plan
than the one employed. The Canadian
government has delegated several expert
inspectors to test the daily construction
of the new span that no defects may
creep in.

MOUNTAIN CLIMBING.
Joys That Come In Reaching the Peak
and Getting Back to Camp.


A great deal has been written by
mountaineers about the joys of climb.
ing, says Walter Prchard Eaton In
Harper's Magazine The Joys Of climb
ing are often a good deal like those Of
heavy dumbbell exercises. In Glacier
park you want to sing the Joys of COM
ing back to camp in the afternoon and
loafing on a bed Of balsam boughs, with
your tent flap open wide to the view OF
lupines and vioiets In the meadow and
distant snow capped peaks beyond. You
want to sing the Joys Of fragrant food
and steaming tea, Of twilight slowly
gathering as though SO fair day were
reluctant to depart.
To ascend a peak, to see the tumbled
world at Its widest. to sit again I'm
camp tired and warmed with food, to
hear with one ear the camp cook tell
ing bear stories, with the other the
birdlike calls of the ground squirrels,
to smell the rssinous wood smoke and
the balsams, to catch now and then the
tinkle OF little ice water brooks from
the snowfelds. to watch the sunset
blush ON Heavens peak and the stars
come slowly out above the battlements
of the divide-well, that Is, fear, to
spoil you for any other life.
The little ice water brooks sing a
siren song In the uplands starred with

happy again east Of the Great Divide.
