government has been formed by the
conferences in agreement with the
great majority OF the reichstag and
that the chancellor speaks in the
name OF the German government
and OF the German people was re
garded as being susceptible to almost
unlimited speculation. What has
become of the kaiser was the ques-
tion asked on every hand as that
phrase was read. The world knows
very little of what has been going
on in Germany during the last few
months when, with armies steadily
beaten at the front, things at home
have been going from bad to worse.
1t was regarded as not without the
realm of possibilities that the great
power OF the kaiser, who brought
on the war, has been taken from
him.
Authenticity Was Doubted at First
At first, there was some DISPOSE
ton to regard the text of the note
as received here as possibly unau-
thentic. The manner OF its pub
LEGATION, although OF official acct
dent, was so irregular that many
thought of some sort OF a bit OF
German "hnesSe' in diplomacy.
There has been an opinion in some
quarters that the German peace Oh
fer at this time had for one OF its
objects the Encouragement OF Am
orleans in the Fourth Liberty Loan.
Military men have expressed the
view that it Wa framed for its pos
sible effect on the morale of the
American and entente troops in the
field and the workers at home beng
pressed to do their utmost Tor the
prosecution of the war. The first
thought tonight was that the dis
patch received here was something
of move Of that sort.
But when it was established be-
vond doubt that it has been picked
up from the great German wireless
station at Nauen, and has been made
public. even though by accident. by
the important diplomatic mission,
which is we'll known os having ac-
cess at all times to the important
foreign developments, all these
doubts disappeared and as its gen
uineness was readily accepted.

TRANSPORTING OUR TROOPS

The world has been astonished at
the great number of American SOL
diers transported to Europe in the
last half year. The number now ap-
proximates 100000, and the loss of
life in transporting them has been al
most infnitesimal.
The success with which we have
moved our troops from the scattered
camps in this country and across
5000 miles of ocean to the. battle
front is great evidence of American
efficiency. We have not only surpris-
ed our enemies; we have surprised
our friends and ourselves.
The British controller of shipping,
Sir Joseph Maclay, speaks of this
movement across the sea as ga trans
port miracle" We have been inclin-
e to attribute this achievement sole
ly to our Navy and our shipping, but
the British controller speaks in high
praise of the share the American rail-
roads had in the work. He says:
eff the American railroads had not
been operated with success the whole
transport movement might have fail
ed, because it was essential to quick
transportation that the troops should
Le ready for the ships "
Director General McAdoo seems
justified in his statement that while
the development of the policy of the
Railroad Administration requires
time, progress has been made toward
the goal.

MEAN TO STAMP OUT 0BEAH
Authorities VIII Put Stop TO Practice
Too Long Prevalent In the
Virgin Islands.

The American officials OF the Virgin
islands have taken steps to deal with
the novel but serious crime OF Obeah,
which has long been practtced In tim
islands. Matilda Francois has be Bh
arrested and incarcerated as an ODE All
woman, and announcement has been
made that prompt action will be taken
by the Americans to show that this
wicked ana shameful practice must
cease.
The obeah is a sort Of first cousin
of the voodoo of darkest Africa, which
&c said to be still practiced in the in.
terror Of Hayti. and which has not
been entirely stamped out in other
islands Of the West Indies group. The
Obeah man or woman sets up as a sort
OF witch doctor processing to cure all
Ills by use Of charms, to be skilled in
the preparation of love philters, and
OF concOefions that are believed to be
certain to bring harm to the enemy of
the victim who pays.
Superstition still has such strong
hold on the minds { = those who be-
heve In obeah that they pay their good
money and protect them In court until
obeah cases at times have become the
bane of officials. Often convictions
are only brought about through deep
laid plots and skillful work on the
part of the police.

Eucalyptus Valuable Tree.

Eucalyptus viii grow under many
adverse conditions, SO long as they are
protected from frost The young srees
cannot stand frost, and this fact has
restricted the growth of the species
to certain favorable sections of Cali
fornia and the Southwest. On the
other hand, the trees will thrive on
very poor soil and they do not require
very much attention. Some OF the
largest commercial plantations, main
talned by railroad companies for tie
making purposes, are located along the
shores OF the Pacific ocean near San
Diego, where their principal moisture
comes from the heavy fogs that roll in
from the sea. and which are absorbed
by the leaves.

CHEAP BUT NOT DESIRABLE
Excellent Reason Why Cinnamon Are
Averse to Calling in the Aid
OF Physician.

The cost of a DOCTORS visit ia China
ranges from 5fto 10 cents. One would
think that, inasnueh as they arc so
cheap, nobody would be without doc
tors visits III China, but, as a fact, the
Chinese get along with as few Of them
as possible. The reason is said to be
that the MongolIan doctors Use such
abominable medicines. Extracts of all
sorts Of creeping things enter into The
Chinese drug list, and people are
averse to taking Them, except in case
of extreme necessity.
1t is possible that doctors have pur-
posely provided themselves with these
offensive remedies as means of self
protection. 1t would be very wearing
to be popular physician at 5 cents
visit; he might run his legs off and
get no sleep. He accordingly makes
himself unpopular thrcug h the tue-
dunn of medicines detected of beetles
and grasshoppers and such things.

complicated with running about.
