MANY YOUNG CONNECTS

One outstanding fact from socio- logical standpoint is the large num- Der of convicts in the state of draft age. Alabama has less than 3100 men in the state prisons. while 1272 regis tered under the new draft law. This means that more than one-third of the persons now in prisons are between 21 and 91 years old. When cards for the convicts were sent out by the mili- tary department General Hubbard fig ured that per cent would register, based on the estimates of the census bureau, and sent out cards for this number. Daily demands for cards were made until the number had been in creased by 10 times the original num- Der

The case then took sensational development when Pink Malone, husband of the dead wonsan, was placed under arrest with her dea 4. and Belle Selby, a negress, was arreEed in connection with the homicide. TA Ma lone woman was shot four times ana tsr- ribly carved with knife while in D3d, the killing being one of the most brut1k;1 in the history of the county.

SECRETARY DANIELS. ADDRESSES NAVAL CLASS AT ANNAPOLIS
Tells Young Men Just En- tering on Careers Pessim- ists and Croakers Have
 Been Discredited

Annapolis, Md, June 2S.-America is demonstrating to the world that democ- racy of 00,0OO,OOo persons can wage war efficiently and with unity of spirit Sec retary Daniels declared today in a conl- mencement address to nearly POO mem bers of the Naval academy, third-year class, whose graduation was advanced by a year to provide officers for fighting ships
 : FALSE PROPHETS
 Those who prophesied that America would not go whole=heartedly into this war, have been, discredited," said the Secretary.
 "Our traditional policy has been against any but voluntary military serv- ice. When conditions demanded the se- lective draft, 1t was written into the law. There were those who told US men of military age would not enroll and riots would mark the day of registra- tion Instead it was a day of consecra- ton, and the enrolment was larger than the census figures indicated.
 CROAKERS FLUSHED
 Congress authorized the issue of s2,- GOO, ,Ooo00O of bonds for war preparation. The bond issue will be failure, crooked few pessimists Their croak- ing was drowned by the multitude of voices offering hard savings as freely as surplus wealth.
 Upon the teels of this unprecedented investment, the Red Cross society launched campaign to raise $100,00O, GOO for that beneficent worldwide work or mercy It is impossible was the com ment of few. The faith of the noble men and women with visions was more than justified when more was given than had been asked.
 Congress is now engaged in writing a taxing bill. There is no division in Con- gress, except as to the sources of taxa ton, and the people will pay without pro- test whatever it may cost to carry rnrs war to successful conclusion
 PROBLEM OF NAVY
 Tn the navy and in the marine corps the chief problem has not been to secure the man-power needed. but rather have the navy's resources been taxed to house and uniform and equip the thousands who flocked to the standard at the Presidents first call and the army is securing all the men who can be trained.
 We are going to war without passion. without hatred, without lust for land. without trace of vengeance. We do not hate the people we are to fight. We hate only the autocracy which harnesses them to the juggernaut. Our victory will not only make the world safe for democ- racy, will not only strengthen self-gov- ernment and end the fiction of divine right, but it will also bring to the Ger man people new breath of liberty and hope for the day when they will govern themselves and be no longer the pawns of militarism."

Counter Revolution
 May Be Attempted h
 Petrograd Sunday
Law Abiding Citizens Are Assembling For De. fense of Provisional Government on Occasion of Great Demonstration Which is Being
 Planned by Anarchist Element

which stated that the Durnovo palace, which is the headquarters of the anarch-
 st authors of last Saturdays unsuc- cessful attempt to overthrow he govern ment also is being used for conferences of the reactionaries. The report added that the council daily was in receipt of fresh facts proving that an attempt will be made to convert Sundays demonstra- tion into a counter revolutionary out break.
 INFLUENCING IGNORANT
 Similar statements have been made to the executives of the regimental commit tees of the Petrograd garrison-that the agitation is being pushed by the reaction ary Black Hundred among the more ig- norant soldiers, the representatives of whom openly declared that the plan is to massacre the middle classes of the pop ulation. This representative is reported to have added, 'It is all the same to us who rules Russia, even If it is Kaiser William"
 Newspaper comment indicates that the reactionary plus the anarchistic agitation is being taken seriously, but that it is likely only to have the effect of emphasiz- ing that Sundays demonstration will be of a pro- government and pro-revolution- ary character.

on London are reported. A man re-
turning from the country, where he
had got present of dozen eggs, was
in strain that was bombed in Lon
don station. He heard the first bomb
dropped as the train came in, got out
hurriedly, and from a distance along
the platform he saw bomb strike the
carriage he had been in. Several
people were killed in 1t. He left the
station and was about to enter a tube
station when another bomb burst, and
he had another narrow escape He
was rushed into the tube by the crowd,
and ultimately reached home. When
he opened his basket he found all his
eggs safe.

Scarcity OF Hirds in France.

In M. Andre Godart's book, sLes
Jardins Volieres," the scarcity of birds
in France is considerable scarcity due
to inefficient protection and so great
as to be responsible for a loss of 40
100000 francs to the grape growers of
the Gironde in 1910 and so discourage
ing a decrease in the oil produce of
Southern France that the olive growers
talk of abandoning their industry. M
Godart proposes that goldfinches,
bullfinches, linnets, yellowhammers,
thrushes, blackbirds and starlings,
Which nest readily in garden aviaries,
be reared in large and specially de-
signed ayiaries, and released when full
grown to repopulates the now deserted
woods ard fields.
