Shovel on the Snow.

Do unto others as you would be
done by.
There was a strong chance for many
Topeka people to apply the Golden
Rule today by cleaning the snow from
their sidewalks. A believer in justice
pointed out that it is not right to
walk on your neighbor's clean walks
and to leave your own covered with
snow for said neighbor to walk over.
And, besides
Police Chief Harbaugh says, "Get
Busy
The Topeka statutes attach a pen
atty Of $40 to $25 for failure to have
the snow cleared from your walks
within "a hours after it has fallen.
The time is up, and much complaint
was coming in to the police depart
m 1s1r. today of failure to clean the
Police say they are about ready to
round up some of the delinquents to-
day-even tho 1t is Christmas-and
to assess a fine for the neglect.
So, If you want to save yourself SO
to $25, clean the walks today.

his immediate attendants.

in her apartment. not even going into
the gardens within the surrounding
meats.
This morning a Christmas tree was
brought into the castle for tonightss

pretentious affair. Those participant
ing besides the ex-emperor and em-
press will be a number of officers who
resigned their commissions in the Ger

Several of these officers were busy
turnout the day arranging the details
Of the celebration in which the Count
Won Bentinck will participate. They
purchased presents which the former
empress will exchange according to
custom and also gifts for their at
tendants. The ex-emperor is as yet
undecided about making a public
declaration and still declines to re-
ceive any correspondents.

ing by Postmaster w. o. Rigby. There
was one mail delivery this morning by
the carriers, while the rural carriers

Thinks War VIII
End This Year
Senator Lewis Tells Of M. CIemsn.
csau's Opinions Of Word War.

PARIS, Aug. 2O.-It is the belief
Of Premier Clemenceau that a COM
plete triumph win be won during the
present year by the arms of the en-
tente allies and that the war will have
ended before another year has passed,
according to the understanding
reached by the United States, Sem
ator ]. Hamilton Lewis, of Illinois,
of remarks of the premier during
lengthy conversation with him. The
gist of the conversation, with the
consent of M. Clemenceau, has been
given to the Associated Press by Sen
ator Lewis.
Premier Clemenceau paid high tri-
butte to President Wilson as a con-
structive leader and said he was very
greatly impressed with Newton D.
Baker, the American secretary of
war, as a man of great resource. The
premier declared that when the Am
erican troops arrived uncertainty ex-
listed as to whether they could bring
their undoubted courage into imme-
date action after having been trained
to a life of peace. The first showing
of the American troops had amazed
France with their bravery and sol
diery perfection, he said.
The premier declared the work of
the American troops on the battle
field did more to terrorize Germany
than any other thing the enemy has
met. He said France had every con-
fidence now that this war was on the
way to immediate victory.
Senator Lewis said Premier Gle
menceau gave him messages to Presi-
dent Wilson and the people of the
United States.

Left to Die by Sub

LONDON, July 3O.-Nine sailors,
four Of whom were dying Of wounds,
left by German submarine COM
mander to perish on ramshackle
raft in the North sea where eight Of
them died, is the story of Hun bar
barity told by Haakon Gibson, the
sole survivor Of the Norwegian bark
Eglinton, now recovering in British
naval hospital. When near death
Gibson was rescued by British mo-
torboat patrolling in Helgoland blight
The Eglinton was carrying coal to
Norway when attacked by the sub
marine firing shrapnel The captains
right arm was shattered, the steward
was badly wounded in the leg, sea-
man was shot through the body and
the second mates arm was town to
splinters.
The ship filed rapidly, but the
crew put out a raft made of FIVE
planks and supported by barrels. A
barrel of water and case of biscuits
were placed on the raft. The SUBJ
marine came up, fired into the sink
ing bark and passed within twenty
feet Of the unfortunates as it cir
cled about the raft.

could see our wounded and the plight
we were in. There was stiff breeze
blowing and expected the raft to
break up. The submarine steamed
away.
"The wounded seaman died soon
afterward and we threw his body

sleepless night for all, the steward
died and then the second mate. We
showed their bodies into the water
also. On the third day the captain
died. Then / must have lost count of
time, for on the afternoon of the
fourth day ! found myself alone with
the chief mate.
Il did my best to cheer him up,
but he only said, 4 am going down
into the cabin to get my pipe and
knew his mind was going. He died
that afternoon, and ! managed to
get his body clear of the raft.
Zone of the barrel buoys had
leaked and that end Of the raft set
tied ow in the water. Brine got into
the biscuits and into the barrel of
fresh water.
II was alone on the raft for five
days." Gibson went on. Il didn't
see single ship all that time. /

cause I'd lose count of the hours.

On the ninth day he heard distant
