Much the same condition prevails in Wyoming.
 A number of Chinese who followed General Pershing's force from MeXi- co and who registered yesterday were on their way tonight to San Antonio to serve in the quartermaster's depart ment, having offered themselves to the country. Returns in Colorado, in cluding Denver. gave a total of 32.546. Denver's share of this was 1S,1O9.

HEAVY TAX IS AIMED
 AT TICKET SCALPERS
Consideration of Re-Drafted War Revenue Bill Will Not Be Taken Up In Senate Un- til Next Week.
(By Review Leased Wire. )

WASHINGTON, June 6.-COnsidera tion of the re-drafted war tax bill will not begin in the senate until next week. After nearly two weeks spent in revising the house bill downward the senate finance committee today abandoned it's plan to nave the meas ure ready Friday Instead, Chairman Simmons said the committee hopes tC complete its revision Saturday. Print ing and preparation of the report will take several days.
 Decisions on important taxation questions still pending were deferred today, details and minor tax rates alone occupying the days sessions Rates on incomes and excess profits are to be left to the last. Any rev. enue needed to make total levy of S1,500, 100000 probably will be secured by the income or excess profits taxes.
 As to the tax upon publishers, which may be settled at tomorrow's session, committee sentiment apparently ia vors adhering to the tentative decision for per cent advertising levy and against increasing postage rates.
 Among mnor questions agreed upon today was a tax aimed at theater tick ct scalpers, imposing a 50 per cent tax upon profits on tickets sold at news stands, hotels, or other places.
 Exemption of bona fide Chautauquas and lyceums from the amusement ad- mission taxes, when operated by local concerns, was agreed to. The commit tee, in addition, amended the eXemp- tion from admission taxes provided for agricultural fairs to include all re- ceipts.
 Officers of the American Sugar Re lining company protested today against the committees announced plan to repeal the present law allow ing re-exported drawback" allowances on sugar imported, refined and then exported, which aggregates s19,0O0,0OO annually Senator Simmons said later the question would be subject to change.

DECLARES BELGIUM I
DEMOCRACY OF woe
Rev. Dr.. J. L. Gordon Uses Hugh
Gibson's Book as Theme.

Rev. DR.. James L. Gordon. pastor
of the First Congregational Church.
received an autographed copy of the
book, The Rape OF Belgium. by
Hugh Gibson, and he took the book as
the subject for his evening sermon,
using as a text 2 Sam. lao: Tell it
not in Gath; publish it not in the
streets Of Askelon, lest the daughters
OF the Philistines rejoice, lest the
daughters of the uncircumcised tri-
umph."
After picturing Belgium as a re-
fined. cultured and peaceful nation,
protected from invasion by interna-
tional pledges. he told OF the Ger
man invasion. The speaker referred
to Belgium today as "a democracy Of
woe"
Then he turned back the pages of
history to 1870. when the German
Paris, only to find them deserted.
The foe had conquered France, but
not the spirit of Its people, declared
DR.. Gordon. and this same spirit Of
revolt dominates Belgium.
Anger, not fear, has taken posses
sion of the Belgium people. and a free
people can never be enslaved, he said.
Belgium's hope is in America, and
faith that the. United States Is COM
ing - save has grown into a prayer.
Should the Kaiser with his army Of
savages come to Washington. moth
ing could subdue the American spirit,

wifey Was Rash.

-s- "AesrNab hu1h.
Once there was a man who used tc
get up every morning and make the
kitchen fire. He didn't mind watkins
on the, cold oil cloth with his bare
feet.
His wife usually got I'D a few min.
utes later. The fire would then be
roaring. Hubby would go back tc
bed.
i One morning when he was pouring
coal oil on some wood to start the
fire, wifey came in the kitchen fully
dressed. '
Hubby almost burned himself. He
was so surprised. But wiley had a
reason. She was going to read the
riot act to him. -z.rs.
Hubby had not yet turned over his
pay envelope. Most of 1t he had in
his pocket, the rest Of 1t had been lost
In crap game.
Wiley surmised this; hubby felt that
lecture was coming. Balancing q
piece OF wood very neatly in his hand,
he brought 1t down over. her head
something shameful.
She cried and she cried, but who
wouldn't>cry when they had q hair
pin driven into their head?
Hubby was nabbed wifey had her
head bandaged. And so the court
fined Henry Edelin, SO and told him
never to do it again.
A Sweet Mess.
Some people buy sugar. others steal
sugar and some have sugar thrust
upon them. Sweet business, all OF
this.
Last summer Ellen Campbell busted
herself with putting up a lot Of fruit
and vegetables. She had on hand
then a fifty-pound sack OF sugar.
Last week she came across ten
pounds of this in cracker box in the
pantry. 1t was like finding money.
She told some Of the neighbors about
IT. They came in to take a look al
the wonderful discovery.
Thursday night she opened the pam
try door to fiil up the sugar bowl
The sugar had vanished. Ellen was
very angry.
Friday morning she listened to some
very interesting gossip. Everything
cleared up in n minute.
She went around to the house OF
Roberta. Jones and hit, her; on the
head with a brick. Roberta hadn't
StOlen the sugar. fteT 0eau, JACK
Crumm did, and hid 1t in her ice box
Jack was sent to jail for thirty days
Ellen was fined SO for hitting Roberta.
Now it's all straightened out.
Pearl Had the Shiyers. f,
We may be able TO keep warm with
out coal. but we have got to have
warm clothes.
This problem was worrying Pearl
Carter almost to distraction. She
couldn't get even a piece OF coal.
So she stole into the house Of a
friend and swiped a nice warm WOOL
en- skirt. 1t fitted her exactly.
When she went in this house. Henry
Banks, one of her Eeaus was sitting
in the kitchen He saw her come out
with the skirt.
The owner OF the skirt complained
TO the police. Pearl was pinched. She
swore that Henry gave her the skirt
