Salem Musical Talent
Forms Apollo Club

Considerable enthusiasm has beer
manifested among the male contingent
of the city's musical circles over the
recent organization of a Mems choru!
which appears, at last, to be q com.
plete union of all worthy male talent
Particularly assuring the success OF
the organization is the splendid per.
sonal voice ability and past expert.
ence in men s. choral work of Prof
John W.. Todd, superintendent OF the
Salem public schools, whom the club
has chosen as its director. Mr.. Todd
was formerly director of the Orpheus
chorus of Tacoma and has been identi-
fled with other prominent northwest
ern cholrs and men g chOruses.
1t has not yet been announced
whom the club has chosen as its pres
Iident but under the adopted plan of
organization this office will be oecu-
IPed by some person, not necessarily
singer or musician, but preferably
IAN admirer of the esthetic, aggressive
Iin civic affairs and a sponsor for the
clubs activities.
Presiding over the business deiber-
Iations of the Apollo club and serving
Iin the capacity of vice president, will
.be F. G. Deckabach, who for a number
'of years has been identified with the
'city's musical activities and who is
also a member of the choir of st.
Episcopal church.
Walter T. jerks was chosen as Sec
and treasurer.
Miss BeTnice Clark, pipe organist at
the First Congregational church, and
much admired by singers for her splen-
did ability as an accompanist, will
serve the club in that capacity.
Weekly rehearsals have been inaug-
urated and are held on Wednesday
nights at the vocal studio of Dan Ian
rgenburg in the Hubbard building.
While it is expected that rapid pro-
gress toward artistic harmony will be
made it is not the intention of Mr..
Todd to present his singers in public
before a high degree of proficiency has
been attained. Promise is given how
that an initial concert may reas-
be expected in the late sum-
mer or early fall. The members and
at present are:

PRESIDENT TO SPEAK
ON SIBERIAN QUESTION
Will Also Make II Plain Thai
ALI Talk Of Peace Is Now
Utterly Useless

Washington, Mar. 16.-A forcefu
war message to the world is expected
from President Wilson soon.
1t was officially indicated today tina
the president had determineG 70 end hi
silence in regard to Americas position
toward the proposed japanese expedi
ton into Siberia.
At the same time, it was plainly
stated that all talk OF peace now is idle
in view of Germany's activities in the
Near East and her ruthles invasion OF
Russia.
The United States and Japan are con.
tinuing to exchange views over Jap,
anese Intervention in Siberia, but the
American position of opposition to the
move is unchanged, it was learned off
cially.
This was the first time that this gov
eminent had made any positive officia.
statement on the Japanese problem since
it became known that our views were
against intervention.
Inc Japanese views were not revealed
The exchange, however, is i'll friend
ly fashion and it is assumed that Japan
is presenting arguments toS offset the
American claims of lack of necessity
and danger of q Russian upheaval if
Japanese troops land.
me lact that President Wilson now
contemplates a statement on the Siber-
ian situation is presumably due to the
Japanese views, TO the British official
limitations of support to intervention
and to the Russian tendency to be sus-
picious of any Japanese move.
In light of the news that the presi-
dent will clarity the confusion about
the Japanese question, coupled with
the fact that he has definitely set his
foot down on peace talk, officials and
diplomats here inclined to the belief
that the president will definitely die
tate that peace now must come by the
sword.
A stronger attitude on the part of
the American government has been
shown in it's determination to seize
neutral shipping needed to accomplish
it's ends.
Officials here strongly indicated dur
ing the last week that this government
is convinced Count Czernin, Austrian
minister of foreign afafirs is dominated
hopelessly by the German junker in
fluence-as indicated by his shameful
demands upon Rumana and his failure
to respond to the president s last speech
in the basic peace principles.
Bitter denunciation OF German hy-
pocrisy has followed the peace words
Of Won Hertling and the war acts of
Won Hindenburg in relation to Russia
and the Near Eastern situation. That
Germany is plunder-bent-drunk in her
conquest of small and rich territories
md mad in her invasion of all the prin-
'iples upon which civilized nations op
and live, has been the belief OF
officials and diplomats since Germany $
irusade through the Near East began.
How the president win speak to the
PEOPLE of this and other countries on
he great International problem con-
the allies, is not stated. 1t is
ssumed, however, that he will address
ongress.

LIFE nv BATTLES OF
JOHN L. SULLIVAN

stepped aside from a rush and drove
his right hand home to Sullivan s ear
lie enraged the champion with this
blcw, and sank to the turf when Sui,
aivan drove at him with a volley OF
right and left smashes.
The true Sullivan showed to the
spectators in the sixth round. Infuri.
ated by the fact that Kilrain had laid
This ear open, he rushed into the ring
with a win now or never expression.
His face and back were streaked with
the gore from the slit in his ear. His
bristling black hair, wet and g~listening,
stood ON end. His lips were curled back
in a cruel grin, and with his head be-
tween his shoulders he presented a ter
rifying spectacle. This was the cave
man Sullivan, the demon who had
crushed and hammered his way to vic
tories in the past. Kilrain attempted to
stave off the inevitable, by throwing
up his guard and backing away. Sui
livan smashed through Kilrain s guard
with his left, and barely missed driving
home that dubbed right hand that was
so dangerous. Kilrain made a brave eff
fort to stand and fight, but it was just
TO Sullivan s liking. Again That ripping
left hand swished down and tore away
the challenger's guard. The powerful
right shot forward, caught Kilrain full
in the mouth, and he was lifted from his
feet, to slide along the turf and against
the ropes, about out from the force of

YOUR HEALTH
Carbuncles.
By ANDREW F. cURRIER, M. D.

A carbuncle is first cousin to a
boil, it is sometimes difficult to tell
them apart, but there + distinc-
lions worth noting.
A carbuncle is a more deeply
seated Inflammation than a boil,
covers more surface, may not be so
much elevated above the surround
ing skin, and by its intense redness
may suggest e~rystpelas.
When it is ripe, 1t discharges
from many openings and the con
tinuance of this discharge means ex-
tensive death and sloughing of the
skin Those who have carbuncle are
usually greatly Frustrated by it.
1t begins with a chill, fever fol-
lows, there is intense tenderness and
throbbing pain and the adjacent
Emphatic vessels and glands become
read, swollen and tender.
II may accompany Bright's dis
case or diabetes and not infre-
quently results fatally.
1t is caused by a specific germ,
and may be located on any portion
of the body, but prefers the back,
abdomen. scalp or lip.
On the lip it is often fatal, espc-
'cially in the young.
In the aged or those who are suf-
fering from chronic disease, it Is
apt TO be fatal wherever located.
The great point in treatment is to
build up and sustain the strength.
The Datient shnuld remain in had
he fed with an abundance Of nu-
tritious food, especially rich milk,
and also get dry Port wine, and such
tonics as q~uinine, organic iron and
strychnia-
The diseased surface must be
kept moist with a strong solution,
say l to 500 Of bi-chloride Of mer-
curry. or it may be brushed with pure
earbolic acid.
