Woman Suffrage in Italy.

Italian statesmen. having been ask ed to go mile in granting new priv neges to women. have gone twain. Minister Sacchi has recently 1ntro- duced a bill to abolish marital author ity-and the parliamentary commits sion has completed it, and added an article, intended to recognize wom- ans right to exercise all liberal pro fessions and be eligible for all posts of public employment except judicial functions, political rights, and the mil itary defense of the state." The com mission will demand, among other things. that qualified woman lawyers be allowed to practice.
 This movement has already received the support of a large number of dep uties, says a correspondent, who will present a resolution that if the govern ment passes the martial authority ab- olition bill it may include the amend ments put forward by the commission.

MAN UNABLE TO OUTD0 SUN
Greatest Artificial Light in Woz ;, h. stalled at Niagara Falls, Far
 Short in illumination.

One of the biggest artificial lights in the world Is the 50,000,O00 candlepower light installed at the Falls of Niagara. When this gigantic installation was made it was claimed to be the nearest approach to real sunshine ever devised by man. and that may be true. But 1t is interesting to ascertain, if possible, how much it fell short of the actual output of light by the earth's great luminary, and, strangely enough, there are figures in existence which enable q comparison to be made. Yet it may be stated at once, observes a scientist, that these figures are so stupendous as to leave the human mind absolutely 'in the dark"
 Scientists have made calculations, based upon careful and repeated expe- ciments, of the total quantity of sun tight given out by the sun, and found it to be quantity represented by can 1les running to 28 ffgures-candle- power being the official unit.
 How many lights equal to the Ni- agara installation would it require to match Dame Natures big installation which appears above the horizon so regularly day by day? More big fig ures It is estimated that it would require 31 300 0O0.000,0 0,0OOo0O,O00 lights just as powerful as the biggest man has accomplished. So Uncle Sam will have to try again. The Niagara illumina- ton is "some" light but old Sol is equal to 311a trillions of them!

Glass Fruit Knife.

The ordinary steel or plated knife, as every housewife knows, is attacked by the acids of many fruits. making a
 stain that is removed only with con- siderable labor. A glass knife is now on the market which is quite imper- vious to the most active fruit acid, and it takes good edge, though of course,
 in view of it's brittleness, a somewhat thicker one than we are accustomed to. With a little of the care in washing which even now must be bestowed up- on the china gravy ladle and similar objects, this knife should prove very acceptable for cutting grapefruit, lem ons, oranges, etc-Scientific American.

Estimate of the 1917 Rice Crop

The following is the estimate of the Southern Rice Growers Association of the rice crop of 1917 and indicates a total produc ton of 8.638, ,72I sacks. divided as follows: Arkansas. 1,458, 7l6 sacks; Louisiana .198 TO sacks; Texas 1892, 442 sacks; California Bag of 187 lbs.) 1,336,893; all other states 52, 800 sacks.
 The acreage used in compiling this report and upon which the yield per acre is estimated IS the planted and not the acreage har- vested. It was impossible to de termine just what acreage was abandoned, as a certain percent age of the abandoned acreage produced small quantity of rice.

DRAFT MACHINERY
NOT TO BE STARTED
NEXT MONDAY
Only Eight States Have Their 0rgani-
cations Complete-Delinquents Will
Cause Postponement to Middle
of Week

Washington, D. c., July Prospects
of setting in motion the draft machinery
for the new national army by Monday,
as planned by Provost Marshal General
Crowder. were regarded to-day as re-
mote, since the organization is complete
in only eight states. The delinquent
states will probably make it necessary
to defer the drawing until the middle
of the week.
Administration officials still maintain
strict silence as TO the method to be
followed. With the recent statement by
Secretary Baker that the drawing would
be held in Washington, however, coupled
with the stress laid upon the serial num-
bering of registration cards, the general
outline of the plan is clearly indicated.
1t is understood that it is proposed
to place in a single jury wheel in Wash
ington one complete set of numbers.
When number is taken from the
wheel, the man in each exemption dis
trict whose card bears that serial num-
Der will be drafted. Thus, as each num-
Der is drawn, approximately 10000 men
will be drafted, or one in each exemption
district. If 100000 men are to be
called before the exemption boards in
the first selection, which seems highly
probable, only 40 numbers would need
to be drawn.

German Stories of Mistreatment of Peo-

LETTER FROM /. A. c.
Wants to Know Why Other Public Places
Are Not Closed.

Editor, Times: The Italian Athletic
club feels that the authorities which
have so strictly followed the laws and
respected so carefully all the precautions
in order not to spread the infantile pa
ralysis with the stopping of the carnival
in Berlin street, does not do in the same
way as to forbid reunions in all the other
public places.
We understand ourselves that it is
proper to safeguard the health Of the
but we don't see why an open
is more dangerous than the other
conglomeration of people in closed places.
Seems to us that the stopping of the
carnival appears to be measure taken
just on account that it was promoted by
Italians Why this partislity?
The authorities have presented as an
excuse for the measure the conglomera-
tion of the public: if that is so, why
should it be permitted TO the public to
assemble at the moving pictures, dances,
etc?
If the authorities want to follow the
laws and enforce the health regulations,
il should be done in every case and not
only in one instance.

BONE DRY" CLAUSE
WAS VOTED DOWN
Senate Then Took a Recess in Turbulent
Fight on the Food Con-
troll Bill.

Washington, d. c., July AT the
close of day Of turbulent debate, and
after voting 81 to "a against the so-called
"bone dry" amendment, the Senate last
night recessed until day in the midst
of the prohibition fight on the food con-
troll bill
Defeat of the bone dry" proposal in.
sures that legislation prohibiting manu-
facture of intoxicants will be limited
to distilled beverages Whether con.
sumption as well as manufacture of dis
titled spirits shall cease during the war,
a new element injected into the contest
at the eleventh hour, completely disrupt
ed leaders well laid plans and caused the
recess for conferences on a compromise.
After roll calls showing a considerable
majority against stopping manufacture
of beer and wines or giving the president
power to suspend their manufacture, the
Senate voted 50 to 10 to prohibit the
importation of distilled beverages and
then by a vote of 45 TO 40 tentatively
adopted provision prohibiting with
drawals of distilled spirits now held in
bond for beverage purposes.
DUN PIVhlSIoHo IhoAkRu Nbleu bi sep

by Senator Cummns added to the So
called administration compromise sub
stitute of Senator Robinson of Arkansas,
prohibiting only manufacture of dis
titled beverages. The substitute was Of
fered for the clause as drafted by the
agriculture committee which would
place the question of beer and wine man
ufaeture in the hands of the president.
Many senators who had planned to
vote for the Robinson substitute prompt
ly expressed their disapproval of the
Cummins amendment, which they de-
elared proposed virtual coniiscation of
220,000,0 900 gallons Of distilled beverages |
in bond without conserving any grain.
They pointed cut that the government |
would lose next year between 10000, 900 !
and $500, 100000 in taxes and asserted 1
that banks with loans upon distilled /
spirits might be put out of business.
The prohibition forces, however, were
openly elated over the possibility of
stopping consumption as well as manu-
facture of whiskey and other "hard' bey-
erages.

RELATIONS STILL CORDIAL.
Between Japan and Holland, Says jap
anese Minister at The Hague.

The Hague, Netherlands, July Cor.
espondence-Asked if the relations be-
tween Japan and Holland had suffered
at all during the war, the japanese min
ister at The Hague, X. Ochiai. declared
in an interview: "The relations be-
tween the two countries have always
been of a very intimate and friendly ma.
ture, and have lost none of their former
cordiality during the war"
The question was inspired by all the
talk about japanese ambitions respect
ing the Netherlands East Indies, and the
concern occasionally aroused in Holland
by the writings of certain japanese jim
goists.
After assuring the Dutch people that
the writings of the publicist Yusaburo
Takekoshi, who advocates the seizure of
the rich islands of Java and Sumstra,
had found no echo in the Land of the
Rising Sun, where his publications in
deed were sharply condemned, Japan's
diplomatic representative at The Hague
concluded by suggesting that experts
should be appointed TO study on the spot
ways and means of improving CONNER
cial and shipping connections between
Japan and the Netherlands East Indies.
