In the bin for the stimulation OF ag-
rieulture, which went over mainly be-
cause Of the prohibition amendment
which 1t contained there were many
provisions of various kinds. One in re-
gard to rodents caused Senator Pen
rose of Pennsylvania to make inquiries
OF Senator Gore of Oklahoma, who had
charge of the bill. 81 am curious TO
know why this amendment has been
stricken out" said Penrose. ''If 1t had
been mereA rodents II might have
stayed in. but to strike out a noxlous
rodent struck me rather unfavorably."
Peoples tastes. Of course. change"
blandly replied Senator Gore. "and
probably we are more fastidlous in
CHASING them as noxious rodents"
"Can the senator tell me just what
varieties Of rodents are described as
noxious?" asked Penrose.
II may say to the senator" remark
ed Gore, 'as he seems to have a very
statesmanlike curiosity on this sub
ject, that the department intended to
make an assault on rats and mice In
dwellings. We thought perhaps that
was going a little too far In these
strenuous times and we would leave
the individual and our great indIvId-
ualistic theory to combat the mice, at
least for a time"
They have temporary immunity"
commented Penr0se.
"Since we are to have woman suf-
frage," further explained Gore, ut
was thought the women ought to COM
bat the mice. At least that was the
argument that was made before the
committee"
All Of which shows that senator's can
indulge In some very trivial CONVERSE
ton during very strenuous times.

With perfect confidence the treasury

for the fourth Liberty loan and no
doubt is expressed about putting this
over with the same success that has
attended every other loan thus far. II
is believed that the people have been
getting the habit" Of doing whatever
Is necessary to make the war a sue
cess. Money is one Of the chief req
uisites, and while we may have more
than a million men in France now, with
possibly 100000 year from now, It
is absolutely necessary to pay their
expenses and see that they are sup
piled with everything necessary to beat
back the German army. That the
fourth Liberty loan is going to be a
success there cannot be the slightest
doubt.

While there was a good deal Of OPP
position to the resolution taking over
the telegraph and telephone lines by
the government, yet everything yielded
to military necessity.
There has been suspicion for a
long time that both the telegraph and
the telephone have been used by Ger
man agents for the purpose of furnish
ing information to Germany regarding
the movements of troops and the YES
sells of the United States as we'll as
Of merchant shipping. This suspicion
grew during the time the U-boats were
operating off the Atlantic coast. IT
was believed that many innocent
sounding messages sent over the tele-
graph wires and verbally communi-
Gated over telephone wires were really
notifications Of German agents as to
the disposition of American troops and
Of intended movements OF American
vessels. When this idea was talked
about in congress there was not much
hesitation in giving the government
authority to absolutely control such
fnes OF communication.

the creation OF large crop Of Great

For years after the Civil war Union
army men dominated politics in the
North and held most of the Offices. In
the South only men who had Confeder-
ate war records were recognized for
any political position. In the North a
Union war record was for 20 to 30
years great political asset. In all

The 18th aero squadron, OF which
Walter E. Wicke and Mallory Sims,

commended in a letter written to the
commanding officer of the squadron by
Maj. Fl. I. f. Yates, commander Of the

ter. which was published in "Plane

by the squadron, is as follows:
Il have to thank you for your letter
OF the Bird instant. 1t is difficult for
me to find words that will effectively
express the complete satisfaction that
the 137th Aero Squadron's work gave
while under my command A keener,
more willing, bigger hearted lot OF
men than those that comprise the
above squadron it will be difficult to
find. Their capacity for work is enor-
nous; the more l gave them to do
the more they asked for, and always
did it with a willingness that showed
1t was done for the sheer love of it,
and 1 shall always be prepared to back
them, for work, discipline, and ap-
pearance, against all corners. My opin-
ion Of the squadron is completely
summed up as follows:
II should be proud to command them

MURDER IN SECOND DEGREE
VERDICT FOR GRACE LUSK

Grace Lusk was found guilty of the
murder of Mrs. Mary Newman Roberts
at Waukesha Wednesday evening. The
jury returned verdict at 1914 O'Clock
Wednesday night of second degree
murder, which means Imprisonment
from fourteen to twenty-five years.
Judge Martin Lueck withheld passing
sentence, probably until today, be-
cause Thursday was a legal holiday.
When the verdict was announced.
Miss Lusk, crazed by the fate that is
hers, leaped at Prosecutor D. S. Tul-
lar. 'He lied! He lied!" she screamed.
Grasping the throat of Mr.. Tullar, who
is more than 60 years old, in both
hands, she shook him back and forth
in his chair at the table for counsel.
Court attaches dragged her away. She
struggled free, stood glazing at the
crowd and then fell in a faint.
Recovering a few minutes later, her
aged father, tears streaming down his
wrinkled face, and one of her attor-
neys attempted to lead her from the
court room, but she fought them, her
hair, unfastened, tumbling about her
face, as she was half dragged away.
"I'll die!" "IIl die! That mans son
lied. He lied! He lied! Maurice Tullar
swore my life away" she cried
