The temporary Injunction enjoined

But he successfully evaded giving
any details of where the Seeadler AMI

cocting the story that the German
raider had been burned at sea. He
said the fire occurred 1000 miles from
land and that he and the five others
were the only ones who had escaped.
His story was so plausible it was ac-

tece and put to sea. If it had not been
for the subterfuge used by Count Won
Luckner it is probable a cruiser would
have gone Immediately to Mopeha and
have captured or killed the balance of
the German raiders.
Count Luckner was incensed when
he learned that he had been captured
by an unarmed vessel, the Amra,
Luckner asserted he surrendered will
lingly because he thought the Amra
was armed. All the Germans were
also Disguised when they we're told
that the Tahitian police craft carried
no large guns.
Since the 81 Germans in the Lutece
left Mopeha island nothing has been
heard of them, although the American
sailors marooned there have since
been rescued. Allied cruisers are still
believed to be searching for the Lu-
tece in the southern Pacific.

FISHING RIGHTS
ARE PROBED BY
COMMISSIONERS

That steps should be taken toward
the condemnation of all private fish.
ing rights in Hawaii SO that the pub.
lie might be free to use them, thus
breaking up the monopoly on these
grounds which is reported to now be
in existence, is the contention of the
territorial food commission, and cir
cular letters are now being sent to
the owners of these rights asking
them to furnish the commission with
all information concerning them.
The fishing rights in question are
those created under the Organic Act.
The food commission believes that,
after condemnation. they should be
taken over either by the territorial
or by the federal government and
thrown open to the public. thus max.
ing the fishing and bait grounds free
to all.

WATER WAGON LONG WITH US
Institutions, as Shown by Old Petition.

The water wagon started on its jour ney through this country longer ago than most persons realize. I offer you, says Girard in the Philadelphia Led ger, a proof of this assertion which was 236 years old last April.
 It is in the form of a petition to a royal governor signed by twelve men who were determined that the brewers big horses shouldn't run over them:
 "Whereas, wee ye inhabitants of ye neu Seated Towne near ye falls of Del laware (called Crewcorne) finding our selves aggrieved by ye Indians when drunk, informeth, that wee be and have been in great danger of our lives, of our houses burning, of our goods stealing and of our Wives and Children affrighting, Insomuch that wee are afeard to go about our Lawful affairs, least when we come home we finde you and our concerns damnified.
 "These things considered, wee doe humbly & jointly desire that the sell ing of brandy and strong liquors to ye Indians may be wholly suppressed, when if done wee hope wee shall live peaceably."

PROHIBITION HELPS.

T. J. Greer. president of the Louisi- ana State Federation of Labor, de- clares that the wages of every craft in Shreveport has steadily increased since the city went dry. "The reason We have been able to organize so sue cessfully here" he says, lis because the liquor interests have been removed from union politics." Senator Richard Jones of Duluth, for IA years union labor man, furnishes the following sig nificant data:
 In 1908 the city of Shreveport, La., voted dry.
 Since Shreveport went dry, the mem- bership in labor unions has increased from 1900 to 3,70O.
 Since Shreveport went dry, union la Dor men owning homes in that city have increased 40 per cent.
 Under the wet regime the single brewery in Shreveport employed six nonunion brewery workers.
 Under the dry regime that same brewery has been turned into an ice plant and employs 40 union ice mak- CTS.

HEAT REGISTRATIONS.

At the request of well-known med ical journal, Dr. Karl Meyer and Dr. Harry Gauss, both of the Cook coun- ty hospital, Chicago made study of the causes of heat prostration. Their report is based on an examination of lo5 cases taken to the hospital dur ing three days of July, and shows that "a case of heat prostration without an alcoholic breath is rarity"
 Doctor Gauss questioned 25 patients suffering from heat stroke. All but two had drunk some alcoholic bever- age during the day. The 23 confessed to libations from one bottle to one gallon of beer besides stronger drinks. Most of the victims admitted the habitual use of intoxicants.
 Doctor Meyers statement, as quoted by the Chicago Tribune, is that ''99 per cent of our cases were directly or indirectly due to alcohol Beer and booze have two effects. They increase the bodily supply of heat and they lower the power of resist ance. The heat regulating center in the brain becomes deranged and the almost inevitable result Is prostration. If 1t weren't for alcohol these people probably wouldn't have been here. If alcohol was taken out of the world, believe the number of cases of all kinds at the county hospital would be reduced by half. After what I've seen in this hospital don't under stand how any doctor can sanction its use."

TESTING ALL ROAD MATERIAL
Hardness, Toughness and Binding Power of Rock Should Be Deter
 mined-QuaItes Defined.

Prepared by the United States Depart

 Counties or communities intending to build water-bound macadam roads run considerable risk of failure un- less they have the rock they are to use tested for hardness, toughness, and binding power. These are the quali- ties, In the opinion of the engineers of the office of public roads and ru- ral engineering of the department, which experience has shown to be most essential to the endurance of road. In a recent technical paper de- signed to assist engineers in making accurate laboratory tests of road ma terial. the road specialists define these qualities as follows:
 Hardness is the property Il rock should possess in order to resist sue cessfully the abrasive action of traffic, especially iron-tired vehicles, which tend to grind to dust the individual fragments of rock forming the wear ing course of macadam road.
 'Toughness is the property u rock should possess to resist successfully fracture under the impact of traffic.
 Binding power, or cementing values as 1t Is more frequently called, is the ability which the dust of a rock should possess or develop by contact with Wa ter, so as to bind or cement the larger rock fragments together and prevent their displacement under the shearing action of traffic. This property is es- pecially valuable in water-bOund macadam construction, since 1t is de- pended upon to maintain the integ- rity of the wearing course as the road surface is worn off by traffic."
 The use of rock suited to withstand the wear of traffic Is regarded as so important that the department offers

In the New York Medical Record, Dr. J. Barkley Percival of Paramari- no, Dutch Guiana, discoursing on Primitive Medicines" advances the idea that certain plants resent their use by animals by secreting juices that are more or less poisonous; that Ny persistence these feeders become immune and are able to feed upon the poisons. It is by this secretion of poisons, this theorist maintains, that such vegetable species are preserved though the preservation is not com plete. He also recognizes that disor- ders and disease are common to plants as to man and other animals and that such diseases are due to the provision made by nature for eliminating the weak and unfit. He notes that as soon as a plant or animal Is injured there begins struggle between the recuperative powers and those scav- engers that are always ready to dis pose of the dying and the dead; that If there is enough internal power to heal the injury or overcome the sick ness there Is recovery, otherwise death ensues.

The dawn of trousers for women is sighted by Prof. Warner Brown of the department of psychology of the Uni versity of California, who sees in the advancing feminine movement the dy- Ing out of extravagant attire for wom- en, says San Francisco Bulletin. Tn a lecture to his students, Professor Brown placed the blame for women's overdressing upon men. ''The origin ot variety and extravaganza in attire were regarded as property" said Pro- lessor Brown. "The more splendid they appeared the more 1t reflected credit upon their owners. Men even today still glory in the dash and beauty of their wives. When the eco- homie necessity of securing husband Is eliminated and when the feminist era is completely realized, one big motive for extravaganza and quickly Snlfeng styles will lose its force.

ALWAYS IN DEMAND.

Al least twice year the newspa ners print letters about work for women and discuss the subject al length. The weak spot in these in exchanges of opinion is that most of inc women and girls do not wish to become producers of real wealth, says Now York Commercial. Most of them wish to become actresses or opera singers; authorship and newspaper work come next in favor and stenog- raphv and teaching stand third. Women are well-fitted for all these vacations, but all women who must earn a living cannot find places in this limited field. Brushing aside all other occupations, the woman of av- craze strength and intelligence can make more money as cook than in my other way. No woman cook earns as much as Maude Adams or Melba, hut every cook can get job at more than living wages and can save more money than even the leading footlighi favorites usually do. If cook has no business and executive ability she is still sure of employment. If she pos sesses these qualities she can go into business as keeper of boarding house or restaurant. HouSekeepers who know how to cook receive large salaries in hotels. The cook cnn still cook if her business venture proves disappointing, but the singer or act ress, whom she perhaps envies, soon sees others take her place on the cleo tric signs and In the hearts of the people.
