A patient German statistician has
calculated that a patient who coughs
once every quarter OF an hour for ten
hours expends energy equivalent to
two hundred and fifty units of heat,
which may be translated as equiva-
lent to the nourishment contained In
three eggs or two glasses OF milk. In
normal respiration the air is expelled
from the chest at the rate Of four feet
per second, whereas In vic y cough
ing IL may attain velocit, of three
hundred feet. This waste of energy
Is especially important, because 1t oc-
ours, for the most part, In persons
whose asslmllative functions are al
ready working under difficulties; con-
sequently the ingestion Of the corre-
spending quantity Of nourishment by
no means compensates for the exer-
ton. 1t follows that persistent cough

there are many other factors which

Fireworks on Independence day are
denied the children and grown folks of
Alaska for the simple reason that the
July nights are almost as light as the
days and 1t does rot pay to attempt
pyrotechnic displays II there is no
darkness TO show them of by contrast.
Consequently 1t has become the Gus
tom in many Alaskan cities, including
Fairbanks, to hold Fourth Of july

nights are still very long. Then there
is abundant opportunity for displaying

Wealthy Fleeing From
Petrograd in Fear of
Advancing German Hosts
By Associated Press

Petrograd, Thursday, Sept. Al
though Petrograd in the opinion of
various military authorities is in no
immediate danger on account of the
fall of Riga, preparations are being
made agalns- the eventuality of an
unexpected descent by the Germans.
The temporary government has ap-
pointed a special civil commission
with authority to preserve order,
suppress seditionary meetings, sus-
pend the publication of newspapers
ana where desirable clear the city OF
undesirable elements. The cabinet
has decided that there is yet no noed
for the government to be transferred
elsewhere.
Although there are no signs of a
panic there are elements in the
population, particularly members of
the wealthy class who are leaving,
CT attempting to leave in large num-
bers. Many business firms are con-
sidering transferring their products
to Moscow, Mini or some
other provincial city.
According to the newspapers the
present Russian front represent the
arc of a circle from the mouth of
the river Aa southeastwards about
forty miles from Riga. Dvinsk, qc-
cording to reports, is still holding

POLITICIANS AID
KAISER IN WAR
Pro-Germans in America Said
e, to Be Responsible For
Loss of Riga

Minneapolis. Mimi, Sept. THE
American Alliance for Labor and
Democracy expected to conclude the
business of its three-day loyalty
meeting late to-day and adjourn to-
night after Il public mass meeting.
Most of the eastern delegates will
return to their homes on the red,
White and blue" special train. Lit
erature will be distributed along the
way, telling of the work accomplished
here in the first drive of the big
campaign to make American labor
loyal and clear the land of pro-Ger-
man propagandists.
Charles Edward Russell, member
OF the Russian mission and until re-
Gently member of the Socialist
party, was one of the main speakers.
Mr.. Russell said:
when the kaiser gives out the
declaration of victory he should give
full credit to these three men, SEN
ators La Toilette. Gronna and Stone.
They an dthe Peoples Council and
men like the mayor of chicago are
doing more TO prolong the war and to
slaughter American soldiers than all
the soldiers of the kaiser.
Russian Lines Importance
1T is of the utmost Importance
that the Russian line should hold,
1t can hold only by the energy and
the interest of the Russian people.
The Russian army does not fight be-
cause 1t is the will of the czar, but
because it is the will of the Russian
people. The interest of the Russian
people in this war has been steadily
undermined by copperhead senators
and representatives in the United
States Congress-.
Every disloyal resolution passed
by combination of German agents,
who call them selves a Peoples Coun-
ell IL America; every time the mayor
of Chicago turns that city over to
copperhead meetings, it is interpreted
as meaning that the United States
does not want to fight. 1t weakens the
faith of the Russian people in the
United States and encourages the
feeling in Russia that the United
States is getting out of the war and
the thing for Russia to do is to beat
the United States to a separate peace.
These are the reasons why | say
that Riga was captured by La Fol-
lette, Gronna and Stone, the Peoples
Council and the mayor of Chicago.
They should be mentioned by the
kaiser in his declaration"

nance of the Bianzizza pleateau and
tn = country far to the south, making
it possible to push his way into the
Chiapovano valley and drive a wedge
between the two Austrian armies,
virtually isolating the southern
army which directly bars his way to
Triest. Several times the San Ga
briele peak has been in Italian hands
but the Austrians have battled des-
perately for this vital position and
each time surged back again.
There has been no let up in the
Italian pressure, however, and it now
seems as if the decisive phase of the
battle had been reached.
The continued retreat of the Rus
sian armies has not yet caused the
Russian authorities to fear seriously
for Petrograd, according to current
advices, but apparently has had the
effect of Weakening most of the rad
ical elements in the capital to the
necessity of strengthening Russia's s
powers of resistance. Their newspa-
pers are now urging the dropping
of internal political quarrels, enforc-
ing discipline and presenting a united
front to the enemy.
