shot and probably fatally wounded
Mary Powell, 40 years old, of Lexing-
ton, and Andrew Johnson, SIS, of
South Elkhorn, Tuesday night to save

Laffan declared, she made arrange
ments for him to meet a girl. In
stead the woman seized him and &C
cused him of trying to break into
her home. Laffan said, and while
two civilians held him, the woman
beat him on the head with a piece of
lead pipe. He said he drew his
weapon to save himself. One bullet
pierced the woman's abdomen and
another Anderson's chest. Neither
are expected to live. Laffan's head

The Art of Living Together.

This thing of living with folks is
certainly complex business. If ev-
-erybody were as bright as We are, if
they had the good breeding and the
good sense that adorn our personal
ity-then, of course, it wouldn't be
any special stunt to get on with
folks; and, verify, life would be one
glad, sweet song But folks are
not like me and yOu-they're queer
ny ideas.
Truly, folks are not alike. Here's
the CHEEKY, sunshiny chap; and
there's the glowering, gloomy
Crouch. And the trouble is that
we've got to live with both of 'em.
1t doesn't make any particular diff
ference, either. wherein lies the diff
< ference between the two. They're
here, and it's up to you and me to
live with them as they are. And
opinions differ.
What seems to us the eternal truth
and the final word about some given
matter, may seem to the other chap
the yeriest claptrap and the most
utter blather. In vain do we strive
to make him see the thing as we
see it-he looks upon us as bone
head. So, we turn away from his
fragrant stupidity and his arrogant
conceit. And he from us, and our
stupidity and our conceit. OF
course, if everybody, individually
could just go away off and flock py
himself; if we could just be indc
pendent of everyone else in the world
If, in a word, folks didn't have to
live together, life would be much
simpler thing.
But because the old world doesn'l
wag that way, and everybody is tied
UP to and dependent upon everybody
i else, living with folks calls for some
thing of art and fineSse. And it So
falls out that art must be acquired
The doing of anything artisticall
well calls for practice. And 1T +
even so in the art of living witt
folks. This is but saying that W.
live by learning; and we learn th'
art of living together by practiciDs
the urbanities and lying hold of th'
amenities (for further particular
5 see Webster.) Higher than any art
more difficult of requirement thar
: the art of music or of painting, il
lust this art of living with our fel
lows.

only. $1.10. BY having these arti-

ments as soon as they appear, and
thereby avoid the more serious dis

Chairman Hurley Of Shipping
Board Tells Of Our Grow
ing Merchant Marine

Chicago, June 2S.-Chairman Hurley
of the United States shipping board de-
clared here today before the Illinois
Manufacturers association that the close
Of the war will find the United States
with big merchant marine and vast
opportunity for world trade.
:" A thousand trade jams and dams all
over the world will 90 out with roar
when peace returns" he said, "re-
leasing stored agricultural products,
raw materials, manufacturing facilities.
We shall be in an advantageous posi-
tion then, because we will have ships
with which to take our place in the
world trade. But ships will be of little
use unless the American business man
has by that time learned to think in
terms Of ships and world trade. He must
learn to regard the whole world as his
market"
He revealed that the president is n
student Of manufacturing costs and that
he has kept personal account Of the
$100,000,000 emergency fund given him
by congress.
Charlie NJ. Schwab, director general
OF the fleet building corDorstion, told
the business men that ships are being
completed rapidly. Between 90 and 100
will be launched July 4, he said, with
out holding back those ready for the
dip before the Fourth.
"They will make splash that will
be heard around the world schwab
declared. He repeated assurances that
the U-boat is beat and that ship con-
atrudtion is outstripping destruction
by submarines
Sehwab made hasty inspection OF
Chicago war plants in company with
Edward n. Hurley and Chirles Piez.
He expected to visit lake shipbuilders
later.

Chaos Resigns In Former
Empire Hating Plans Of
Allies to Assist
By Carl D. Groat

(Uni'nd Press Staff Corresponding
Washington, June 28.-Delay in Am.
erican aid TO Russia is due to lack of
a strong government or party there
with which to deal.
Government officials said today this
situation is proving one of the main
obstacles, as it means that any fac.
tion ignored by the United States would
probably turn on Americas bitterly and
perhaps dangerously.

The attitude of the German press and
the German people toward Austria as a
result of her failure to overwhelm the
Italians is declared to be bitter. The
Germans intimate that the Austrians
were materially aided by their allies in
advance of the proposed Austrian Of
fensive with reserves, guns and supplies.
italian authorities interpret the feel
ing in Germany as result Of the real
ization that Teutonic arms, as well as
the Austrians, have been dealt blow.
The German press is reported unani-
nous in demanding that Austria take
immediate revenge on Italy.

WHEAT PRICE AT
PACIFIC COAST PORTS
REMAINS At $2.2O
Telegram Received at Port
land From National Food
Administration

Portland, Or, June 2S.-The nation
al food administration intends to main
tain the present price of 1920 on wheat
at Pacific ports, but may increase the
price of wheat at New York efsome
ten to twelve cents a bushel,' - it was
announced here today at the office of
the Oregon food administration.
This information came to the Ore
gon administration in a telegram from
the food administration at Washing
ton.
The telegram stated:
sit is understood that the shipping
board finds that the rate of $3.50 per
don upon wheat from Pacific coast
ports to the Atlantic has proved to
work out alt loss, and that the board
will find it necessary to advance the
rate. The matter is Still under consid-
Grafton.
Furthermore, the insurance rates
on both ships and cargo have been tre-
mendously advanced, and the ihsur-
ance rate on wheat products have in
creased by virtue of submarine actiyi-
ties ON the Atlantic seaboard, further
increasing The cost of the sea haul
from Pacific northwest ports to Allan
tic ports.
"The net result is that it NAV cost
as much as - cents bushel more to
transport wheat from Pacific north
west ports to Atlanta ports than has
been contemplated. In the meantime,

Air Raid Over Paris Kills
Fourteen and lnaiCtS
Much Damage

With the Americans on the Marine,
June 2S-(2:25 p. m)-The total num-
Der of Germans killed and wounded in
Tuesday night S battle in Belleau wood
is between 100 and 1900, according to
a careful checking up of official re.
ports today.
This big proportion of casualties was
due to the barrage fire of the Ameri-
can artillery, preventing the boehes
from fleeing the wood.
There was brilliant moon last night
and numerous patrol encounters result
ed. The Germans shot up with machine
guns one of their own patrols which
was running from an American party.
Another incident was the use of gas
shells against a small American patrol.
