A TRICK INTEL AN EGG

Place two V shaped wineglasses of the same size near the edge of ta- ble. In the right hand one put an egg, just fitting the rim of the glass. Hold the bases of the glasses firmly down. the top rims touching each other. Now with quick, sharp breath blow upon the line where the egg and the glass meet. The egg will jump to the other glass. With a little practice this can be done every time. Be careful to blow in line with the left hand glass, or the egg will jump in the wrong direc- tion and land on the table.

NEEDLES TO GO DRY

A proposition of saloon keepers of Needles has been put up to the city council of that time in which it is in- tended that an ordinance be adopted closing the saloons on the first day of January next year. This is in an- swer to the proposal of the drys to immediately bring before the people a local option election for the imme- diate closing of all places in which liquors are sold. The saloon men are taking the right step and the people should allow the into at least close out their business.

Many Coconino boys were on the ill fated Tuscania, which was sunk by a German U-boat last Thursday, some of whom were known in this county. This is bringing the war close home, as many of our boys will soon be crossing the big pond for service in France and will be exposed to the perils of submarine warfare.

STEELTON
POLICE REPORT
MANY ARRESTS
Constables and Patrolmen
Have Approached Many
Negroes This Month

That southern negroes who have
arrived in the borough during the
last several months are creating more
disturbance in the borough than has
heretofore been the case in recent
years is emphasized by police reports
of arrests during the month of July.
The local police department has
taken every step in an effort to
break up disorderly conduct of ne
groes, but no improvement has been
noticeable, there being six arrests on
Saturday night and Sunday. Burgess
McEntee. in an effort to discourage
this practice, has imposed heavy fines
on the lawbreakers. but this has not
tproved to improve conditions. the
department continuing to make ar
rests in wholesale lots.
Not only has the local police de-
partment reported many arrests, but
constables working at the offices of
the local Justice OF the Peace have
apprehended a large number of ne
groes charged with assault and bat
terry and on various other charges.
Several times this month the bor-
ough lookup was crowded to its
capacity with negroes that had been
arrested by the local department and
constables. The situation is not
alarming, only that some action
should result soon in breaking up
the disorderly conduct of the ne
groes, in the opinion of officials.
Six negroes arrested on Saturday
and Sunday will be brought before
the Burgess this evening for hear

master General, in his annual re-
ports, has insisted that the wire COM
lmunication be taken over by the gov
ernment.
In the absence of any expressed
reason why we should put control of
the wire system in the hands of the
government at this time, l want to
go on record as saying that l be-
lieve it to be indisputable that the
government intends, as a matter of
governmental politics, to take the
railroads as we'll as the wire sys-
tens. over in peace time, as we'll as
in war
Il would like to ask the Senator"
interrupted Senator Harding, "1f he
does not know that industrial enter
prises throughout the country have
found themselves handicapped by
the lack of postal facilities during
this wartime?"
That is true" replied Senator
Wadsworth. And what is true of an
inefficient postal system will be ac-
centuated. l am afraid, in the gov
eminent control of the wire systems.
l am not consoled by the thought
that the wire communication is to
be taken over only ira emergency. We
might as we'll make up our minds
that it will be done, emergency or
not, and that the telephone systems
will be absorbed as we'll as the tele-
graph and cable. And once the gov
errment begins taking over the tele-
phone systems it cannot stop until it
has taken the last little farmers line
on the prairie. There will be no mid
die ground.
Il cannot follow that road. To me
| it means the eventual breaking
down of our system of government
1t means a bureaucracy. 1t means
government control of the working
activities of a great proportion of
our people. I do not think a gov
ernment can survive which puts
more than half of its working popu-
tion under it's own control"
But does not the Senator be-
lieve that the government" sug-
gested Senator Hitchcock of Ne
braska, after testing this control
in wartime. would be able to form
a Judgment as to it's practicability
in peace time?"
"I fear that bureaucracy, once it is
established, will not let CO." Senator
Wadsworth answered. After the
war there will be other problems,
such as we cannot now foresee. to
occupy the public mind. The gov
ernment needs. then, only to say to
the people to let things stand as
they are. to allow the control that
we have put in the governments
/ hands to remain until after war
conditions are adjusted. And the
people will not oppose, lit. They will
have their minds bent upon restor-
| ing the balance overthrown by the
war. And so government control of
public utilities will be made perma-
nent."
Senator McCumber, of North Da-
kota, opposed government control OF
the wire system saying that no log
ical reason had been advanced for
ttaking the step.

A Big Shipment Of Open Stock
Dinner Ware Cancelled by a
Jobber Transferred to Us
Alto Per Cent LesSThdn Regular Prices

Patience is virtue these days of uncertain
deliveries. A jobbing house in the West noted
for its volume of business in china and sundry
articles had long waited for the delivery of
big order of open stock dinner ware. Finally,
the delay became irksome and the order was
cancelled
Then the manufacturer with the goods al
most ready for shipment looked around for an
outlet for this big lot, and his first thought was
of our stores. The price was attractive as is
evident by the values We had hoped the din
ner to be here for the opening of the Mill

Friday. The pattern is a neat border with a
wreath of pink and blue flowers with black
edge-each piece gold traced.

Feeding the PEOPLE Piffle.

Arthur Buzzbrain, William r
Hearst's high-priced editor, is always
babb1ing about democracy Like
other eminent apostles of democracy,
he is for it when the people vote his
way, and doubtful about it when the
people decide against his wishes. In
an after election editorial whining
about the election Of a republican con-
gross the distinguished Buzzbrain
says:
''The election being over the. world
knows little more than it did before
about the intelligence of the voter, and
the success Of popular government"
This is the way Buzzbrain feels
about it now, but two years hence he
will be at the old JOB of telling the
people how wise they are, how compe-
tent to govern themselves, and how the
bosses and the plutocrats and the re-
publicans in general are trying to put
it over on them.
The biggest reflection on the intel
ligence of the American people is the
large circulation of newspapers that
feed them piffle of this kind. -Nation-
al Republican.

BOYS COMING HOME
Indications That Some of the Prince
ton Boys in France Will Soon
Return to America,
Local Registration Board Winding Up
Draft Work and Will Soon
Close. Its Office.

General March announces that three
OF the Minnesota regiments now serv
ing in France are to be sent home i'm
media' Aly They are the 135th infan-
try 18th infantry and 125th field ar
tillery. General Pershing, it is stated,
has designated these Minnesota regi-
ments among those which will not be
needed for the army Of occupation.
The 125th field artillery was formerly
the third Minnesota infantry and a
number Of its members belonged to
Company G of Princeton.
Iii this program is correct we scarce
" think that the boys who were held
at Camp Cody and Fort Sill for year
gand half or more will take kindly
to .the arrangement. Why not send
the first men over back first and per-
init those who went across last to con-
stitute the army of occupation? We
are confident they would enjoy this
important duty and that the boys who
have gone through hell would be glad
to return to their homes. But, of
course, the great generals know that
which is best. Amen.

Bumper CrOns Seen

Government experts say that next
year Minnesota will plant 100000
acres of spring wheat, while 100000
acres of winter wheat has been sown
in the state.
They also estimate that Minnesota
farm lands next year will yield 85,OOO,-
900 bushels Of wheat, the figures based
on the acreage of wheat lands in the
state and the average yearly yield.
Shipments Of wheat abroad for next
year are roughly estimated at 400
100000 bushels. The prophesy is in
teresting in that Minnesota's estimat-
ed yield for 1919 being 85,OOO,OOO the
figure reaches close to the quarter
mark of the country's total export.
The government estimates place an
increase Of from 10 to Is per cent in
the coming winter wheat acreage over
the normal planting.

Winding Up Draft Affairs.

The local war department will soon
be an Institution of the past In &C.
cordance with orders from Provost
Marshal Crowder the officials of the
registration board are now busily en-
gagged in winding up the affairs of the
draft. Voluminous statistics are be-
ing tabulated and reports compiled
probably for the governments future
reference, and missionaries filed
away in freproof cases for shipment
to Washington. It is expected that
the board will be ready to close it's
office by December 10.
During the existence of the local
board all work has been kept in ship
shape order and every detail promptly
attended to. This has been labori-
Gus task for the off cials and they are
deserving of more than passing praise
for the manner in which they carried
out the war program. The registra-
ton board is composed of County At
torney W. C. Doane, Sheriff Harry
Shockley, DR.. G. R. Galley, Miss Eta
Reichert and Miss Emma Griep.

Next Loan Smaller.

Government war bond selling in the
future will be along distinctly new
lines. Bonds will have short maturi-
ties and Secretary McAdoo explained
that. this is meant from three to
seven or eight years. In addition, is.
sues will be smaller than in the past
and probably will be marketed more
continuously.
War savings organizations through
out the country will assist in placing
the bonds in more direct manner
than in past Liberty Loan cam
paigns. The 41-4 per cent interest
rate borne by the last two issues may
be changed, depending on other
terms of the securities.
The heavy over-s subscription Of the
Fourth Liberty loan with a total Of
$6,959, $4,000, or 16.48 per cent more
than the Sc, Oo0, OO0D 900 sought, will en-
able the treasury to postpone the next
