A second requisition of church bells
has taken place in Austria to the sor-

necessary. with the result that the
church has had to sacrifice many more

With 1917 farm products valued at
more than $l45.5oO. 900. as compared
with SOL 100000 in 1916. the farmers
of the Centennial state have answered

tural districts that this nation and the
allies might be fed while their sons
are fighting for world democracy.
The 1917 crops were Of the bumper

KAISER GAVE HIM
TITLE Of won"

NEW YORK, Aug. 2o.-Proof that
Df. Frederick A. R. Won Strench had
been on intimate terms with the Ger
rlan foreign office resulted yesterday
IN q recommendation from Rufus w.
Sprague, head of the New York Port
Enemy Alien Bureau. that the doctor
be interned during the war.
DR.. Won Strench, who had an office
on Washington Heights, was arrested
three weeks ago on a Presidential
warrant. Papers found in his posses
sion showed a plot to invade Canada
with 10000 German reservists in the
United States.
Or. Won Strench denied he was re-
lated to the German Emperor. He
said he was the son of a Wurttem-
berg merchant and that after receiv-
ing a gift of 100000 marks from his
father he was directed in 1886 by the
old Emperor to so into Togoland and
make q commercial survey.
After his return the Emperor told
him he might carry a won" before
his name thereafter.
In 1891 he came to the United
States and studied at Georgetown Uni
Versity and the Baltimore Medical
school. He made money in giving
a nerve treatment and after getting
his Baltimore degree began the reg.
ular practice OF medicine. He said
that after the start Of the present wal
he repeatedly wrote to the Emperor
Offering his services, but never re
eeiving q reply.

SLEPT WHILE HIS
$500 WAS GROWING

NEW YORK, Aug. 2o.-Felix Kar-
tinski, twenty-five years old, was
locked up last night on charge OF
grand larceny after a chase of five
blocks.
According to Anthony Lyzchka.
Kartinski was introduced to him last
December as a Polish count in polit-
icaI exile. After several days, he
alleges, he was induced to draw his
5000 savings from a bank and place II
in a money-making machine, which
would double the amount
He said the Count" brought two
machines to his house, one for his
money and the other for his sisters
money. But the sister did not draw
her savings, he said.
After he placed the money in the
machine they had some drinks,
Lyzchka said, and he remembered
nothing further until his sister awak-
ened him two days later. The ma
chine, the money, and the count"
were gone.
