HEIR OF ROMANOFF'S
A BRITISH OFFICER

London, July 29.-The former
Grand Duke Dmitri Paplovitch, cous-
in of the late Russian emperor, has
Just been appointed an honorary cap
tain in the British army. Dmitr, ac-
cording to the Daily Telegraph, was
present at the famous supper at the
palace of Prince Youssoupoff in Pet
rograd. which resulted in the death of
the Priest Rasputin. He was arrest
ed on the order of the Russian en-
press and banlshcd to the Persian
front. Dmitri owes his personal safe
ty to the fact that he was on the Per-
sian front when the revolution broke
out
The Daily Express says that if the
report of the death of the former heir
apparent, Alexis, is true, Dmitri is
heir to the Russian throne as the sons
of Grand Duke Vladimir Alexandra
witch lost their right to succession
some years ago.

DO FEW WOMEN

From the small attendance on Mon
day al the canning and drying demon
stration at the Woman's Club. it would
appear that few women care to can or
TO be instructed in the latest and most
scientific method of food conservation.
But a handful of women were pres
ent at the demonstration given by the
County Demonstration in Home Econ
omics. Mrs. Joshua Linthicum.
Mrs. Linthicum demonstrated in a
most interesting manner the method
Of canning Swiss Chard, and used the
pressure Gamer, giving timely talk
while demonstrating. 1t takse about
sixty minutes TO can with the pressure
Gamer. and about fifteen in the ordi-
nary way.
Besides canning Swiss Chard, Mrs.
Linthicum canned pears and apple
sauce, and she also demonstrated dry
ing apples.
On Monday afternoon next, it is pro-
posed to can red peppers if these can
be procured, and also to put up apple
jelly.
These canning demonstrations are
very instructive and helpful to the
housewives, all of whom should avail
themselves of the opportunity and
privilege the Woman's Club affords.

SECRETARY DANIELS
DOUBTS BOTTLE STORY

Loss of the American naval collier
Cyclops remains a mystery of the war,
Secretary Daniels told newspaper cor
respondents yesterday when asked re-
garding reports that a message saying
the Cyclops had been captured by a
German submarine had been found in
a bottle floating at sea. Mr.. Daniels
said the Navy had no information re-
garding such message.
Nothing in this war is impossible,
the Secretary said. when asked if the
Cyclops could have been taken to Ger
many as a prize. but he added that it
did not seem within the realm of prob
ability that such craft could have
passed between the Gordon of British
and American naval vessels guarding
the gateways TO the enemy's coast
Mr. Daniels personal opinion is that
when coming up from the coast from
the West Indies under one engine, the
Cyclops encountered rough weather,
which caused the shifting Of her cargo
of manganese, turning her over.

REINA TEAM TO PLAY
FIT. HOWARD SATURDAY

The baceball huskies of the Reina
Mercedes, station ship at the Naval
Academy, which is a strong contender
for the inter-service championship
among Army and Navy stations in
Maryland, will try conclusions with
the Soldier nine at Fort Howard on
Saturday of this week. The game,
which will be played at Fort Howard,
will, in the opinion of local rooters,
see the bacon brought back to Annapo-
lis. Through the loss of several of
their speediest and best players in a
recent transfer of men from Annapo-
lis, the Reina lads lost their game with
Edgewood Arsenal last Saturday and
dropped back into second place in the
league. At the time they were tied
with Fort Howard for first place. The

APPARENT SHORTAGE OF BUT
 TER

Indications are that there will be a shortage of butter the coming win ter unless the American public promptly increases the conservation of this commodity. This was em- phasized by the Food Administration which pointed out that in families where lunches are put up daily, 1t would be well to prepare against such a shortage.
 According to the Home Economies Department of the Food Administra- tion, apple butter is extremely palat- able, one of the best fruit products, and is easily made at a small cost. It can be produced cheaply because i'm perfect or inferior apples can be used and because no sugar is requir- ed. Many housewives make large quantities of it in place of jams and marmalades to use as a sandwich fill- ing as well as to serve with meats.
