Power of Eloquence.

A story is told of the great Irish
orator, OConnell. An attack had been
made upon him In the house of COM
mons. When O'Connell arose to reply
der and his arm uplifted as If to strike.
Then, checking himself, he said. But
the gentleman says he loves Ireland"
Lowering his tone to the ripping muir
muir of summer brook, he continued,
II have no words of bitterness or re-
proach for any man who loves Ire

utterance of the last word brought
tears to the eyes of many veterans of
the house.

DARING MURDER
CASE SOLVED
Bandit Gives Up When the

$4,000 PAYROLL

Thousands See the Battle
Which Clears Deep
Mystery

Chicago, Sept. with Edward Vince
de and Edward Taylor in jail and al

recovered, the Chicago police yesterday
congratulated themselves on clearing up
one of the most daring murder and rob-
berry cases on record.
Noted for spectacular encounters with
highwaymen, Chicago experienced new
thrill late Thursday in the arrest of
Edward Wheede.
Following trail from the scene of the
robbery, the police surrounded Wheede's
cottage and called upon him to surren-
der. A revolver shot was the answer.
Reserves were summoned and the police
laid plans for siege. The bandit fired
sporadically from every window, and the
police response broke every pane of glass
in the cottage.
News of the battle spread quickly and
several thousand Chicagoans were look
ing on from the safety of nearby house
tops and windows when the bandit
walked out and surrendered. He is said
to have asked the leniency of a peniten
tary sentence, but the police made no
Wheede and Taylor left trail that
was easy to follow by stopping in vari.
ous stores and saloons after the robbery
and changing $40 gold pieces and large
bills into money of other denominations.
The robbery occurred Tuesday morning.

WHAT THE KAISER WILL DO.

"To understand the kaiser study Frederick the Great" is the advice to those who are puzzling their brains over the possible actions of Germany in the present struggle of nations, by M. F. Friend of Chicago, who under the pen name of "Boersianer," writes so wisely on international questions. world politics and finance. The big men of America, the statesmen, finan- ciers leaders of industry; all men who do things in the world. are all acquainted with "Boersianer" as one of the soundest thinkers and writers on world topics. Therefore, his advice quoted at the top of this column should be interesting to all WIG are puzzling over the question of what Germany is likely to do in the present crisis in international affairs
 Says MT. Friend: "If you want to understand the German emperor, study the character and the actions. of his ancestor, Frederick the Great. The kaiser looks mp to Frederick as Fred erick and Napoleon looks up to Caesar and Alexander. There is no doubt that in his intense adoration-some might call it slavish imitation--of the great Frederick. the kaiser is constantly asking himself, "What would Fred crick do in my place."
 The world and its hideous war largely depends on the kaiser. What will he do if reasonable peace is in sight? What will he do if reason able peace is impossible and he must choose between fighting on to de- struction and a peace that he would consider fatal?"
 When you read the reports concern ing the conditions in Germany and accept the view that they are des- perate, do not, however. decide that the kaiser will make nasty, unsatisfac- tory peace, even though all the stories coming from Germany of dissatisfac- tion and starvation are true.
 Accept the advice of Boersianer and read the history of Frederick the Great and remember that when you are studying Frederick the Great you are, as Boersianer says studying the kaiser, for the latter will do, as nearly as possible, what Fred erick did.
 Read again the story of the great Seven Years War and see there the great Frederick. fighting at the be- gining against Great Britain, France, Austria, Sweden and Saxony. Frederick went on fighting against this appar- ently overwhelming combination of nations when his little kingdom of Prussia was almost reduced to de- sert waste, even though the greatest powers in Europe were arrayed against him.

Liuuid Fuel Oils.

It has been shown that oil with a flash point of 230 degrees F. will not ignite if fired into with shell, and if dynamite Is exploded in a reservoir of this oil if only throws Up jets of oil which do not ignite. The only dan- gerous liquid fuel oils are those which have not parted with their volatile, infammable gases, such as absolutely crude oils.
 In all ordinary commercial fuel oils these portions are removed, and the oil is safe and contains no power of spontaneous combustion. Oil with a fire test of 1SO degrees to 200 degrees r. is as safe as coal, and 1t will not ignite when stirred with a redhOt poker nor when hot cOuls are thrown in it.
