AMT NATURE WONDERFUL!
Spelling
The fella who invented spelling is
the worst enemy artists have. We
bet the punishment inflicted on art
lists who visit the warmish places
(theTe won't be a few is to be rugged
up to a spelling bee for eternity.
The inventor must have got
rake-off from the paper, pencil and
ink companies for putting in letters
that don't do or mean anything
the letters that are silent, like dog in
sausage. Them words that sound
north and spell south. Dye get us?
Spelling is too much trouble. 1--WE
speak with authOrty) When, you
come across a word that you don't
know if it lie or eli or lie or ell, etc.,
then you have to look in the 'dictiOn-
airy.
We think it's all big frame-up, a
trust, as it were, this spelling bust
ness. Like the paper, pencil and ink
gag we just said, this dictionary
stunt makes it look all the stronger.
We're for words like they hear. None
of this eyether or neyether stuff. It's
eether, neither, garash, showfer,
etc.
If we ever get into congress lay
your money on us putting over spell
ing the way it listens.

PORT ADELAIDE IS
GIVEN NO WARNING
British Admiralty Says Vessel
Given No Notice Before
Being Sent to Bottom.
FROST WILL SECURE DATA

London, Feb. An official state
ment issued today by the British gov
ernment concerning the sinking by a
German submarine of the British pas
senger liner Port Adelaide says:
"The British steamer Port Ade-
laide, carrying passengers from Lon
don to Australia, was torpedoed
without warning on Saturday by a
German submarine. The passengers
were rescued by the Dutch steamer
Samarinda and landed at Vigo. The
master, however, was made prisoner
aboard the submarine.
"Germany's withdrawal OF its
pledge to the United States not to
sink passenger ships without due
warning thus has been emphasized
Page Sends Orders.
Ambassador Page today forwarded
t oWesley Frost, the American con-
sui at Cork, instructions from Wash
ington to obtain affidavits from mem
bers of the crew of the British steam
ship Eavestcne
The Eavestone, according to an Of
fetal report, was sunk by Germ;D
submarine, which shelled the boats as
they were leaving the sinking steamer
killing the captain and three seamen,
one of whom was Richard Wallace
an American negro.
The Central News says it has
learned that the Belgian relief ship
Lars Kruse, which was sunk near the
Belgian coast on Monday, was tor
pedoed

The crew of the British steamer
Palmleaf assert that after their vessel
had been torpedoed by German sub
marine the captain and chief engi-

mans, who left the other members

ONE WILD HORSE
MAN TO THE PEN
Terms in Jail or Fines for
Others Imposed by Judge
Woodrough.
TWO ARE TO TAKE APPEALS

One year and one day in the gov
ernment, penitentiary at Fort Leaven-
worth, kan, was the sentence i'm
posed upon Charles NJ. Thompson OF
Omaha, banker, real estate operator
and convicted conspirator in the Ari-
zona wild horse case, by Judge
Woodrough in federal court Wednes-
day afternoon.
Four other. sentences were pro-
nounced by Judge Woodrough, but
none Of the penalties were as heavy
as the one imposed upon Thompson,
A. c. Smith of Omaha was SEN
fenced to serve three months in the
Grand Island jail. Charles w. West
of Lincoln was fined $500, and upon
his inability to pay the fine was COM
mitted to the Grand Island jail. r.
B. Burwinkle OF Elston, Ia, and John
Bolecy Of Omaha were each fined
$500.
Postpones Action Two Weeks.
William Hinkly of Brayton, S. D.,
through his attorney, asked that the
court delay pronouncement of SEN
tence upon him because, although a
man of considerable means, his prop
erty is SO encumbered at the present
time it would take a few days for him
to raise the money to pay the, sum he
might be fined. Accordingly Judge
Woodrough postponed his case two
weeks. 1t is believed Hinkly will be
given a somewhat larger fine than
the others who were fined.
Sentence was not pronounced upon
]. Sidney Smith of Omaha because
Smith was taken i'll while on his way
to Omaha and had to be removed
from the train at Mason City, la.
Sentence will be pronounced upon
him later.
Thompson and Smith, it is under
stood, will appeal. Those upon whom
fines were imposed, it is believed, will
pay New bond for the same amount
must be given by Thompson, but
Smiths was reduced from $4,000 to
$4,000.

AMERICAN CRAFT
POSTPONE SAILING
St. Louis and St. Paul Again
Delay Departure on Word
From Washington.
NO PASSES FOR WOMEN

New York, Feb. Sailing Of the
American line steamships St: Louis
and St. Paul, now in the port of New
York, has been indefinitely postponed,
it was announced here tonight by p.
A. Franklin, president of the Inter
national Mercantile Marine.
The announcement followed an Of
fetal statement received by telephone
from the State department at Wash
ington declining to advise persons as
whether or not their ships should
start on voyages which would take
them within the war zones laid down
by Germany. The State department
pointed out, however, that neutral
vessels may arm themselves for de-
fense if the owners so elect and that
it is the right of an American vessel
to traverse any part of the high seas.
Mustn't Book Passengers.
The International Mercantile Ma
rine today sent out instructions to
its agents throughout the country re-
questing them to cease booking pas
sengers on American line ships.
Although there has eben no can
collation. of sailings OF British or allied
ships from American ports, it was
learned here today that the British
consulate is refusing to issue pass
ports for women and children on
ships destined to pass through the
war zone. No formal notice has been
issued, but applications for women
and children are refused
Evidence that the thirty-one Ger
man and Austrian ships self-detained
in this port have been disabled and
that most of their crews left them
prior to the placing of guard over
the ships by the customs authorities
on Sunday, is in possession of federal
officers, it was authoritatively learned
today The ships are so badly dam
aged that six or eight months will be
required for repairs
Over 1000 Vanish.
Figures that were made public also
show that more than 1000 members
of the crews have vanished. There
were $500 officers and men aboard the
vessels at the outbreak of the war.
The Holland-American Ryndam,
which sailed from New York January
%, is returning to this port, a cable
from the Holland-American's
lines officers abroad informed the
local officers.
There are ninety-seven passengers
on the Ryndam, sixty-eight in the
first and tweEty-nine in the second
cabin, Among the passengers is
Desire Derulle, American consular
agent at Luxembourg.

Asks for Half Million to
Aid Americans in Europe

Washington, Feb. An emer-
gency appropriation Of $5O0,0O0 for
relief, protection and transportation
of American citizens in Europe was
asked Of congress today by Secre-
tary Lansing.
The secretary did not mention spe-
cihcally the situation in which many
Americans in the Teutonic countries
are placed by the break with Ger
many, merely calling attention to the
continued extraordinary expenses of
the State department on account of
the war and suggesting that the nee
essary money be provided immedi-
ately "in view OF apparent develop
ments in the international relations
of the United States within the last
few days"

Union Pacific to Open
Up a New Scenic Spot

The Union Pacific has about COM
pleted the lineup for arrangements by
which during the coming season it
will take tourists into Little Zion
canyon, a section of country that,
it is asserted, contains more natural
attractions than the Yosemite Ma
tional park.
The Little Zion is seventy-hve miles
off the San Pedro line of road, this
distance south of Lund, Utah. Tour
lists will leave the railroad at Lund
and make the trip by automobile into
the canyon, where hotels are to be
erected. The road from Lund is
through fertile valleys and over
mountain ranges, ending in the can
yon that in places spreads out to
mile in width, with sides 1000 to
5000 feet high.
