THOSE FINNIcKY WIVES.

Even on days when we either don't
drop any Bull Durham on the floor or
succeed in cleaning 1t up ourselves in
time, we generally are unfortunate
enough to spill smidgen or two of
tooth powder around the bathroom
and thus a day never passes when we
get credit for being nobler charac
ter than we really are. We are seri-
ously thinking OF giving up tooth

SEIZE ON oFFERINGs.

New York, June 1.-THE Times SAYS:
The market has seized upon the one
outstanding fact in the midst of so
many uncertainties that expenditures
on such a grand scale can't be made
without bringing up the earnings of
nearly all industrial companies and
particularly those directly engaged in
the production of articles consumed by
war The movements of trade are In
teresting as showing to what slight
extent so far the actual entrance of
this country into the war has altered
business. The weekly reviews have
found more contraction OF activity re-
sulting from the unreasonable weather
than from preparations for the move
ment of hundreds Of thousands Of men
TO Europe.
IN most of its branches manufactur-
ing has gone on practically at maxi
mum capcity, the needs OF the govern
ment having served to Offset any fall
ing OF in ordinary demand where such
has occurred Mills and factories have
been unable to accept additional or
ders to their oversold condition.
New york. June 11.-Notwithstand-
ing q good deal Of profit taking last
week, there was heavy pit buying
showing appreciation OF the great ex-
pansion OF business and probability or
further imitation. Such conditions are
likely to carry stocks higher this week
In connection with the war loan which
promises to be oyer-subscribed: The
belief prevails that many subscriptions
are being held back. Various consid-
erations make for optimism. President
Wilson's message to Russia should pro-
duce a good impression in that country
and bring Russia into closer union with
the allies. on the whole Russian news
Is fairly good and German influence
appears to be waning. We viii hear
good deal this week about large war
orders with probability that rate adj
vances will come within q fortnight and
q more aggressive attitude by the Unit
ca states towards Germany. Stocks may
Be bought on any little setback.

ALLEGED ADDUCTORS
IN KANSAS CITY JAIL
Prisoners Had Marrow Escape From
Lynching by Mob at Springfield, Mo.

Kansas City, June Combination
of the report that cletus Adams and
Claude Piersol, two of the alleged
Springfield abduction plotters. have
been brought to- the jail here, was OBJ
tanned today from officials from
Springfield who were here en- route to
question the other Taylor
Adams, his wife and one son and Sam
McGinnis, who were understood still
to be held at Stockton, Mo-, the lit
tie town where a mob early threatened
the lives of the six suspects in an I'M
successful effort to make them confess
they had kidnapped and killed little
Lloyd Keet.
Springfield, Mo-, June IL. Fears
that the six persons who were arrest
ed here in connection with alleged
abduction plots would be taken from
Sheriff Webb and lynched by irate
Springfield citizens. apparently abated
last night, when it became known that
the prisoners were safe somewhere in
the Ozark hills north of here.
Their guard of deputy sheriffs was
overpowered at Stockton, Mo-, early
yesterday by leaders of the Infatuated
Springfield men but the terrified
prisoners saved themselves from the
moose by denying stoutly any guilt Of
the disappearance and death of little
Lloyd Keet. AS a result Springfield
was quiet last night and talk Of
violence hushed after the wild fury
of yesterday morning when thousands
Of persons crowded the public square
here awaiting the expected return and
lynching OF the suspected six.

France Buying Old Copper
Collection Parties Securing
Country for Metal

PARIS, Aug. 30 Correspondence Of
The Associated Press France is now
in the market as purchaser OF copper
at home in the shape of utensils. For
the present the government is seeking
principally old copper "alambics" or
liquor stills of n almost obsolete pat
tern that are found in some regions,
although it purchases any copper object
offered for sale.
Since copper stills cannot readily be
shifted from point TO point by their
owners, the government has organized
series Of collection parties, each
under command of an officer, which are
touring several of the departments and
picking up such copper as is offered
for sale. The government offers four
francs so cents per kilogram.
The half dozen departments where
the collection tours are taking place
have been notified of the exact day and
hour when the collectors may be ex-
pccted to arrive. In all, III towns
were visited during the latter part Of
August.
Meanwhile. the government main
tains in Paris a sort of old copper
headquarters at > Avenue de SAKE,
where utensils and objects OF all kinds
made of red copper may be turned in
at four francs the kilo.

Washerwomen Organize
With c. of L. Higher $3.50 a
Davis Demanded in Chicago

CHICAGO, Sept. l1.-Lsundry women
made their first timid bow to-day as
an organized unit OF labor
At the office of the Women's Trade
Union League, Miss Agnes Nestor an
nounced to-day that the movement
among the washerwomen had gained
strong foothold.
1--WE arc out working now to solidify
the organization" she said. THE high
cost of living has struck hardest at the
most humble. The S21O which has
been the price for doing up Monday
wash, a sum usually half of what The
laundries would charge. is insufficient
in this day of l5-cent loaves of bread
and l2-cent bottles of milk.
among all the various trades the
wagherwomen have remained longest
out of unionism. Last year the effort
to organize the washerwomen failed.
But the consistent increase of food
prices has at length been felt. The
price of the washing has gone up 20
$3.50, an increase Of half a dollar.
This will be the demand of the Wash
crwoman's Union as soon as we obtain
its charter"
