Chicken Had Unusual Dressing.

A roasted chicken enabled two pris-
oners to escape from the county jail
at New Brunswick, N. j., despite the
inspection of their cells every ten
minutes and the armed guards who
surrounded the building. To outward
appearances the fowl, which was sent
to the prison by brother of the men,
was brown, appetizing and innocent. 1t
was learned later that, instead or
bread crumbs and spices, its interior
held saws and files. When keeper
made one of his inspections the men
were snoring loudly on their cots
Ten minutes later he found that they
had disappeared by way of the win
dow from which they had wrenched
the bars. Still later the brother who
brought the chicken. and his high pow
cred automobile, were also found to
be gone.

WANTED
BADNESS DUE TO PET DOGS
Doctor Holds CANNES Responsible for
Epidemic Which Has Appeared
Among Women In London.

From London comes a warning to
women who. have pet dogs. Since the
start of the war many English women
have found that they were losing their
hair. A West End hairdresser, observ-
ing that he had had more cases of fall
Ing hair In the last year than ever be-
fore, regarded worry and grief as the
cause. but a physician advances an
other theory:
"This explanation Is partly correct"
says this physician. 1.-THE depressing
effect on vitality of fear, anxiety and
sorrow reacts with serious conse-
quences on the hair. But In my opin-
Ion the epidemic, If there is an cpl
demic, is to be traced mainly to infec-
ton from dogs.
Every hair expert knows that In
nine out of ten cases the premature
loss of hair is due to dandruff. That
condition often results from the pres
ence of microbes whose great source Is
the dog. Ordinary cleansing with soap
or shampoo preparations is of practi-
cally no use, but simple antiseptics,
such as boric ointment, usually bring
about a speedy cure. AS q preventive
measure dispense with the dog"

M|CHAEL|S' POLICY
REMAINS unknown
NEW GERMAN CHANCELLOR HAS
GIVEN NO INDICATION OF
HIS PEACE POLICY.
Receives Representatives of Two d.
vergent Groups and Permits Them
to Explain Respective Stand
points Without Comment.

Copenhagen.--Dr Won Bethmann
Hollweg's successor. DR.. George
Michaelis, is Germany's first common
chancellor. a bureaucrat without even
noble won" before his name. DR..
Michaelis has as yet given no indica-
| ton of his policy regarding reform and
peace. Neither the conservatives nor
the liberals have ventured to call him
their own. Whether or not Germany
is closer TO peace with the allies as a
result of the resignation of DR.. Won
Bethmann-Hollweg is still a question
to be decided by future events.
The new chancelIor's first step,
which might be interpreted as an in
dication of an open mind, was to re-
ceive representatives, of the two diver
gent groups in the reichstag and per-
NIT them TO explain their respective
standpointS the chancellor playing the
role of listener to the conversations
conducted by the vice chancellor, DIR.
Karl Helfferich, and the reichstag rep
resentatives.
The German papers unite in charac-
terization of his energy and fair-mind-
edness, but are most reserved in their
predictions of his probable policy. The
papers aligned for the so-called Ger
man peace are perhaps a shade more
enthusiastic about the political posi-
bilities under the new regime than the
radical and socialist organ.
The appointment of DIR. Michaelis
undoubtedly means new deal of the
cards Berlin papers which were pub
lished before the appointment of Dr.
Michaelis was known, throw further
light on the circumstances of Won
ethmann-Hollweg' retirement. They
show that the emperor was confronted
by the necessity of dropping the i'm
perial chancellor or virtually the en-
tire Prussian cabinet, the members of
General Won Stein. soldier, not pol
itician, submitted their designations, |
declaring that they could not remain |
# Won Bethmann- Houweg was re-
tanned
The Cologne volks zeitung, the Cath
says DR.. Michaelis undoubtedly stands |
nearer the right than the left parties.
The line of the comment, evidently en-
mating from the Wilhelmstrasse, is
hat the new chancellor regards as his
mission the restoration of the internal
harmony of the nation, whatever pol
cy may be adopted No matter what
Use may result, the change will I'M
mean the disappearance of
he Won Bethmann-Hollweg peace pro-
ram.
DR.. Won Bethmann-Hollweg's policy
egarding the ultimate aims of the
var had from the beginning been a
personal one. in which the chancellor
bove the parties had formed a pro-
ram above parliamentary parties. the
Military authorities and the emperor
like, and he endeavored by gentle.
teady pressure and suggestion to inn
ose it.

CHANCELLOR GIVES

WHEN PRINCE INTERVIEWS IN

Emperor William Has Postponed De-
eision as to Whether He viii Accept

Berne, Switzerland. The Vossiche
Ieitung of Berlin says the German
imperial chancellor, Or. Won Bethmann-
HoIlweg has resigned Emperor VIII
Ham, the newspaper adds, has post
poned his decision whether to accept
the chancelor's resignation.
A telegram from Berlin on July II
said thar II was the Intervention Of
the crown prince that caused the
chancellor 10 tender his resignation.
An official communication issued In
Berlin says Emperor William ex-
pressed the opinion that the political
aud constitutional reforms demanded
by the rclchstag are such that they
concern not merely himself but his
successor, In us much as they would
be permanent. For this reason the
emperor summoned the crown prince
TO attend one or more crown councils,
at which final decisions regarding the
extent to which the crown and the
government will make concessions to
the reichstag will be reached.
A rumor has reached Holland that
the entire German government will
resign with Imperial Chancellor Won
Bethmann-HolIweg, the main com
mittee of the relchstng having refused
to vote war credit unless the gov
srnment declares its policy regarding
peace and reform. which the govern
nent has declined TO do. An imperial
is considered imminent.
