Can You Beat 1t?
A short time ago in Rochester, n. 7.
something new in the bicycle stealing
line was pulled off by i4-year-ola lad
of foreign birth. This lad had such a
desire for a bicycle that the tempta
tion of a number of the two-wheelet'
beauties parked In front of the Gen.
trail Y NJ. C. A. proved too much for
him. He borrowed one that suited his
taste without the owners consent.
however. and rode same to the canal
towpath and there took the wheels and
handle bars off and cast the eomplet6
biclcle piece by piece into the canal.
Several days later he invited several
Of his ehums on a fishing trip, telling
them that he knew where carp and
suckers were plentiful. The boys az
companied him to this spot in row
boat where all proceeded to catch some
of the promised carp. After fishing
for some time the leader got bit.
but however, there was not much mo-
tion to his catch when he landed same
as il proved to be the front wheel of a
hicxcle After fishing While longer
the rest of the bicycle was hauled in.
4 detective from headquarters learning
of this wonderful catch accosted the
Iuckv fisherman and after much quiz
ling he finally admitted he had stolen
the wheel.

The fact is that It is hard to get the
farmers assembled at any kind OF meet

that they feel every minute must be
made to count. Those expressing their
sentiments seem to believe that any
present officeholder, though he may
have made mistakes from being new

best for the country, is not apt to do
any worse and might do better than a

their farms, almost as though they

KAISER, If 0USTED,
MAY LEAD REVOLT

WASHINGTON. Nov i5.-The kaiser's
next move, IL shorn OF power but not
forced TO an immediate abdicatlOn, will
be TO initiate korniloif.
With the kaiser at the German head
quarters, ii will be possible for him to
rally around himself all the great lead
ers Of the German army and some Of
the crack household regiments.
KornilOff at the Russian headquarters,
succeeded In enlisting all the profes-
siOnal soldiers that he could reach with
his secret call 10 arms, and with them
he started on his march toward Petro-
grad, after demanding, by wire, that
kerensky and his radicals quit their
places in the government.
The kaiser, in making such a move,
would undoubtedly be able to enlist a
large force Of the professional sol
diers OF Germany. but, IL Germany has
beeR whipped soundly enough by the
allies. he will find that the amateur sol
diers, the men who had not followed the
profession OF arms for a livelihood, will
not follow him.
He might, by a show OF arms. menace
the government in Berlin, but hunger
and strikes and lack off railroad service,
which would grow out OF civilian unrest,
would soon cause his army 10 disband.
Whether the kaiser has determined 70
try the KornilOff move remains TO be
seen.
II he does. he is doomed 10 greater hu-
initiation and defeat than he would
otherwise have faced.
