BEARS WHO CHANGED PLACES.

Once Man went to a small town,
said Daddy, with two Bears who did
tricks and performed around tho
| streets. The Man would sing songs
in queer sort OF voice ard in q
| queer sort of language, but at the end
he would always say:
Moneys for the fine tricks Of my
Ba ars' He always said Ba'ars in
stead OF Bears, and he said it with a
long drawl as If it were a great, long,
long word. Then he would pass around
hat and the People who had stopped
to watch him would throw in pennies,
nickels and dimes. For he always
would add, Throw in your pennies,
nickels and dimes
One day a little Girl said. How
about ten cents?' But the man didn't
know what ten cents meant-he had
only heard them called dimes, and in
the country he came from they had
quite a different name altogether.
AT any rate he stayed in this town
for quite few days and made a good
deal of money for his Bears did very
fine tricks and the People enjoyed a
change.
You must admit, you know, that
Bears are not as common to see as
Cats for instance!"
Both Nick and Nancy laughed at this
for they had never seen Bears perform
in the streets. They had only seen
them IN the zoo and at the circus. And
or course they saw Cats all the time!
We'll, to continue" said Daddy,
"one Of the Bears was quite happy
walking around the streets and do
ing his tricks every day. His Master
was kind and he gave him plenty of
food. And he got better food than
ever on the days he did his tricks
best. OF course you can understand
that, fer on such days the Man got
more money and he liked to give his
Bears nice things to eat.
But the other Bear hated walking
around small towns. He thought they |
were very stupid and dull, and Peo-
pie didn't interest him at all.
He always got rather mad that he
had to climb Pole. II he had been
asked to climb at all, he thought, they

DARLING LITTLE DJNKS."

Down near South Manassas, in the
Valley OF Bull Run,
Stands an humble old log cabin, which
was built in fOrty-one:
And the sweet Virginia Creepers, with
the suntiOweTs are immense,
As they cluster round the doorway,
and trail along the fenceI
When the cows are coming homeward,
and the hour is getting late,
A little girl is standing with her daddy
at the gate.
And as he takes her by the hand, the
doting father thinks
There never was another kid like
Darling Little Dinks!
Oh! Dinlsy is a darling! She is daddy's
precious one,
Just the sweetest little girl in the
Valley OF Bull Run.
Her eyes are like the summer sky,
her cheeks are like the rose.
With just the dearest dimple, and a
stu6by little nose!
Now Dinks is full Of mischief. as the
dog is full Of fleas.
She'll pull your hair, and pinch your
chseks-an awful little tease.
But II there's any fault to find the
old folks are to blame,
No matter what their Dinky does,
they love her Just the same!
She let the chickens loose today, and
now they're in the hills:
She gave the poor old hound dog Tray,
box of Brandeth's pills!
In fact she's busy all the time, in
cutting up high jinks,
But there never was another kid, like
Darling Little Dinks,

The Sufragists Appeal.

In appealing for a new trial, and
asking for a legal adjudication of
plcketing on it's merits. the leaders of
the National Woman's party are
showing sound judgment.
II they genuinely believe in theh'
right to petition the President for a
redress of grievances" through hold
ing banners aloft at the gates of his
official residence. it is only logical
that they should demand a legal rul-
ing on this phase of the difficult sit
uation in which they find themselves.
II their banner-bearers go once
more to Occoquan, let them go not on
an incidental issue such as "obstruct-
ing traffic" but because the court
rules that picketing is beyond the
pale of the law.

The War Situation.

While the German crown prince
loses the last Of his gains around
Vcrdun, the Italian offensive on the
Carso Plateau gains in intensity, and
the British forces are slowly but sure
Iy lighting their way into Lens. The
entente have never faced . more IA
vorable military situation. The only
front which is entirely unsatisfactory
is the Russian.
1t Is betraying no secret to say that
Russia is practically out Of the war
for the present year, at least. All
that she can be expected to do is to
hold a certain number of German and
Austrian army divisions on the East
crn front. II she does this during
the summer and fall, the British.
French and Italians will hammer
away with impressive results before
the winter campaign sets in. Berlin
knows this, and is preparing to make
a desperate effort to put Russia en-
tireIy hors de combat. That is the
meaning Of the attack on Riga and
the reported drive on Petrograd.
The military story Of 1917 is by no
means finished. and before It is con-
cIuded Trieste may have fallen, all
Of Italia Irredenta and Dalmatia may
be in Italian hands, the French and
British NAV have reconquered a very
much larger portion OF the territory
now in the hands of the BoChe than
was counted upon six weeks ago. The
prospects of the Italians are most
promising. providing their munitions
and supplies are adequate for a sus-
tanned offensive. 1t is little wonder,
in view of the terrific pounding they
are getting on both the Isonzo and
the Trentino, that Austrian war

situation. But within the next four
months the armies already in the field

tain doom they are inviting by allow

A Police Problem.

The Washington Herald yester-
day printed a story calling atten-
ton to the fact that a certain place
in the southwest section of the city
was selling intoxicants to enlisted
men. The story also told Of the
degraded atmosphere Of the place
which is a distinct blot on the city
Maj. Pullman's only comment fol-
publication was the fact that he has
nothing to say"
other members Of his department
however, were not so reticent In
expressing themselves for publica-
tion. Most Of them said that the
place in question was selling near
beer" and they refused to make any
charges or investigation unless we
would prove that the liquid sold to
the enlisted men was beer.
This would entail a chemical an
aIysis, and we are not chemists
Moreover. we do not fntend to delve
for proof such as the police ask,
We have always considered the in
vestigation of such things the duty
Of the police department. Perhaps
we are wrong.
We have called the matter to the
attention of the police and further
action is up to them. We are will
ing to cooperate with them in any
way that they might ask.
As to the name of the beverage
which is being sold we quote a de-
scription given 1t by a disinterested
party who visited the place yester-
day:
It asked for beer. I was given a
glass Of something that looked like
beer, tasted like beer, foamed like
beer and had the same effect as
beer. Furthermore. there were
signs in the place advertising Capt.
tai beer on draft. light and dark,
There were no signs advertising
near beer" And I also noticed
bottles back of the bar that looked
as though they contained stronger
beverages than beer. There were
also several persons in an apparent
Iy intoxicated condition around the
place"
When The Herald printed the
story yesterday it was with no In
tention to start q cleanup Wash
ington" crusade, but from the num-
Der Of people who have communi-
Gated with us since the story ap-
peared, there is considerable work
for the police before certain parts
of this city can lay the slightest
claim to cleanliness.
And The Herald does not believe
that the selling OF beer to enlisted
men is half so dangerous to the
as the conditions under
which it is sold. They are just such
that led to the East St.
Louis and Houston affairs. Every
citizen Of Washington will be be-
hind any activity that will prevent
such an occurrence in Washington.

LOW RECORD MADE

Chicago. Aug. 25-The hog market
was generally weak today. Prices
went to the lowest point of the week.
Sellers had TO take SlL25 a hundred
for their stock. This was a drop OF
from 81 to $3.50 from the high spot.
There was a weak outlook for fu-
ture trading.
Cattle prices were steady on a small
amount Of business. The highest
mark of the week was reached WHEN
steers sold for $3.50. There was only
small trading in lambs. prices hold
ing their own, and in some instances
were a little higher than those OF
last week. Lambs made a gain of
80 to 20 cents over last weeks clos
ing levels, while range stock closed

Army and Navy News
Best Service Column I'm City.

The Chief of Staff has made
positive announcement that for the
present there will be no change in
the cut of the collar of the service
coat of the army uniform. Much
has been said on both sides of this
question, but for the present at
least there is no chance OF making
the change. Not the least of the
arguments in favor of retaining the
present style is the confusion which
would follow a change in all the
specifications for uniforms now
given out. In the hot weather pre-
vailing the rolling collar would
conduce to the comfort of officers
and men. but there is also an ocean
to be crossed and a winter in camp
to be endured, which is an addi-
tional argument in favor of retain
ing the present style of service coat.
The third class OF provisional
lieutenants to receive three months
special training will open at Fort
Leavenworth this week. They will
form separate battalion from the
young officers now in training
there. They will be QUartered in
