Honest Man.

Annis Burke of the ClaypooI hotel
believes that Diogenes did not need a
lantern to find the proverbial honest
man. Burke discovered that individ-
ua1 when he received a letter from a
man in Louisville, who, several DAYS
before, had been a guest at the Clay
pool.
In his letter the man explained that
when he left the hotel he had procured
what he thought was a pair Of his over
shoes from his checkroom. He did not
notice that they were not his until he
got TO Louisville. He then discovered,
he said, that the shoes he had obtained
were not his, but were a brand-new
pair, and worth at least 80 cents more
than his had been.
The guest said that he desired to do
the square thing with the man who
had taken his overshoes, and offered to
send the shoes back on receipt OF the
accessory postage. Burke said he
supposed the other man had never no
ttced the mistake-Indianapo News.

GIRkRD REACHES WASHINGTON
Former Ambassador to Berlin Reports
to State observation-disclosures In
different TO American Desires.

Washington, March 15.-Former
Ambassador Gerard reported to the
State Department today that when he
left Berlin there was every evidence
that Germany fully intended carrying
out its ruthless submarine campaign,
regardless of the prospect of war with
the United States, and that talk OF
peace had been abandoned.
Mr.. Gerard did not see President
Wilson because the President is still
confined to his room, but he conferred
with both Secretary Lansing and
Frank L. Polk, counselor of the State
Department, and went over with them
in detail events leading to the break
in diplomatic relations between Ger
many and the United States. Mr.. Ger
ard reported that German officials ap-
parent1y considered the effects and
consequences of submarine ruthless
ness before proclaiming it, and as far
as he could learn were confident Of
its success. When he left Berlin, how
ever, the campaign was only in it's
second week
Food conditions IN Germany when
Mr.. Gerard left were reported as Sc
rious, but not necessarily critical
This question is looked upon by the
American government as very impor-
tant because of its bearing upon the
possibility Of further peace moves by
Germany in the near future
One of the best observers who has
reported to the State Department in
months said that 20 million persons
directly connected with the army or
government, another 20 million in the
rural population and about 8 million
wealthy people are well fed, but that
the balance, about 20 million, are in
a serious plight.
The report made by the ex-ambas-
sador to the State Department was
understood to deal particularly with
the treatment accorded himself and
other Americans following the break
in diplomatic relations, the efforts of
the German government to get him
to reaffirm the old treaty of 1928 with
extensive changes, the general atti-
tude of the German government and
public towards submarine warfare,
peace and relations wit hthe United
States and conditions in Germany.

tor at Elsmore, was taken to the

nished by David Ard, his father; Ora

more with his father and brother. He
said he was not surprised at his ar
rest.
Immediately after Ards release on
bond the county attorneys caused

mer. 1t was served by Edward ]. Dun
fee, sheriff of Allen county, on the
girl at her home. This is the only
subpoena that has been issued for
witnesses to appear at the preIimin-
airy hearing.
Mrs. Ard was killed the night of
November 10, 1914, while driving a
motor car to her home, two and one
half miles north of Elsmore. Her sis
ter, Katie Latimer, was sitting in
the front seat of the motor car and
her husband was sitting In the back
OF the car. Ard stated at the time he
had one arm over the back of the
front seat Of the car, and that the bull
let was fired as the motor car topped
rise in the road adjoining culvert.
Both he and Miss Latimer testified
at the time that they heard no IN
usual noise, either of anyone ap-
preaching the motor car or leaving it.
The inquest was held behind locked
doors and all the testimony still is
locked in the county attorneys safe.
He has steadfastedly refused to talk
about the case.

Hands.

Canada today, with the great de-
mand that is made upon it for food
stuffs, finds itself almost in the throes
Of a labor famine. A novel means OF
solving the problem has been evolved
by the Canadian Government at Ottawa
on Wednesday last, when it was de-
cided TO practically bonus every farm
hand going to Canada, by giving him
160 acres free as a homestead, and to
allow the time he would be working out
for, the good wages offered, TO count a.

Actual Bullion Value

The United States realizes the diff
ference between the actual bullion
value. OF the gold or silver in the coins
1t issues and the money value it places
on them by coinage and by its stamp
OF approval. The gold and silver coins
issued by the government are not pure
gold on silver, but are alleged with
copper to the extent Of making them
900 parts fine, as required by law. Il
made Of pure gold or silver they would
be too soft and the copper alloy OF
100 parts In 1000 is for the purpose
OF hardening them. The difference be-
tween the nominal or face value OF q
coin and its bullion value ar the mo-
ment OF coming represents a profit TO
the government which is supposed TO
cover the cost of coinage.
