GREATEST HORSE TRADER IN
THE WORLD.

"Since the European war began,
saws a writer in the American Maya
zine. 40 Nugent, of st. Louis and
Des Moines, has sold approximately
100000 horses, the worlds biggest
order for horse-heSh, and he has bullt
I'D the worlds greatest horse market
to supply the allied nations demands
for horses. His business with the
foreign governments has totaled more
than S1.OO0,O00 a month for the last
ffteen months, and the orders on
hand, and others reputed coming
will keep him busy. His daily IN
come is said to be one of the most
successful of the many war babies
which are making scores OF new MIL
lionaires in America. In view OF the
fact that Nugent has easily cleared
over s1.OOO,000, his earning capac-
itv has become one of the seven won
ders of his profession.
"Nugent can tell at glance
whether an animal submitted for sale
is serviceable for the cavalry or gun
running service in Europe, no mat
ter how> much of the smell OF the
soil there may be about a pillow morse
And if you ask Nugent why ne ma,
! been so successful he will tell you IL
is because he knows horses better

not conceit that makes him say this
but the Nugent system which IS:
"'Know one thing better than al

Suspension by the railroads during

ARMY OF MILLION MAY BE ASK.
ED FOR.

A special from Washington, on
Wednesday, says: "An American
army of 100000 men, for service
abroad at once, instead of the $780,
600 contemplated for the first draft,
is foreshadowed by the government s
request for an additional $,5000,000,-
600 made to the Senate Finance
Committee.
The first million men. are to be
made up of the first draft army of
100000, the national guard, and the
regulars. 1t is improbable that the
first draft will be increased, but the
government is arranging it's finances
for other drafts without the neces-
sity of going to Congress for the
money.
Secretary McAdoo, committee
members stated, told the finance COM
mittee that it was estimated that an
additional credit of $2,00O,0OO,OOO
o be loaned to the Allies, also would
be requested"

THE WAR.

The American public has not heard
much recently regarding German u
boat activities, being so intent on its
own affairs, with Congress beating
the air in fancy word battles over
food control and other matters.
The latest news from abroad gives
evidence of renewed activities by
these hornets of the sea-"
The British submarine GA has
been sunk by submarine, it was Off
cially announced Wednesday. The
sole survivor was taken prisoner.
The Handelsbald (Amsterdam) re-
ports that the German steamship
Norderney, with a cargo of coal, was
| torpedoed on the North Sea on Mon
day. She is aground off the south
coast of TeXel, Tristan Islands.
The British merchant cruiser Of
way was torpedoed and sunk in moth
ern waters on July %. Ten men
were killed. The remainder on board
were saved. This announcement was
made officially Wednesday.
N. S., Wednesday, who claim to have
| been among crew of vessels in the
vicinity of the transports which con-
veyed the first American troops to
France, say they were creditably in
formed that German submarines
made concentrated attack and were
beaten off with a loss of six U-boats,
only one submarine escaping.
The sailors said they were within
three miles of the transports and
witnessed heavy and continuous fire.
The men were on three former Dutch
vessels, which had been taken over by
the British Government, and were on
their way to Europe.
An explosion Tuesday on the sub
marine AT at Cavite, Philippine
Islands, killed five men and injured
three of the officers and crew. The
explosion from a preliminary eXamin-
alton appeared to be due to the lg-
milton of gas within the ship. The
cause of the ignition of the fumes has
not been reported.
A dispatch to the Exchange Tele.
graph Company, of London, England,
! from Amsterdam, says telegram
from the frontier announces that
English airmen during the past two
nights, have bombed the Zeebruggs,
the German submarine base and the
town of Bruges, Belgium. Explo-
sions and fires followed the attacks.
A submarine shop at the Zeebruggs
was damaged, according to the dis
patch, and it is probable that sub
marine was blown up.
Twenty-one British vessels of more
than 1900 tons each and three of less
than 1900 tons each, were sunk last
week by mines or submarines, &C
| cording to the weekly admiralty re-
port on shipping losses. One fishing
vessel was also sunk.

THE SPIRIT OF re.

Millions are familiar with that Gel
ebrated painting called "The Spirit
of Seventy-six." Yet probably only
a handful know who painted it, or
anything about the story back of it.
Everybody's for July has short and

famous drum and fife trio-came
from the brush and genius of Archi-
bald M. Willard, who is still living,
and has attained the age of 80 years.
The artist emerged from overalls
and Wellington, o., wagon shop. A
picture called PLUCK No. 1" display
ed in a Cleveland art dealers win
dow, attracted the attention of the
discriminating, and paved the way
to kind of partnership with James

ahead and painted ITSELF" The old
man whose flashing eyes inspired
this change of conception was the
artists father, Rev. Daniel Willard,
a man of Revolutionary stock.
