Jack is the hero, the strenuous star and his college chums indulge in a celebration that gets the village con- stable on their trail Jack is driving a cab, but forsakes it when the chase becomes too warm for the top of an automobile. From there he jumps to the roof ofa moving street car; from the car to the top of another trolley moving in the opposite direction; drops off the back end and makes a run for viaduct from which he drops onto a freight train. There the con stable catches up with him and a tus- sle takes place and the official and Jack come near falling off.
 Later in the story he stages fist fight with college enemy that sent the latter to hospital.
 Then comes a real boiler explo- sion with Jack on the scene and really taking chance of losing life and limb.

Holland To Send Food
 To Germany
May Violate Trade Agree ment With the Allies
 by Action.

Washington, July 2.-Official an- nouncement from The Hague that the Netherlands government had agreed to export potatoes from the new crop in ejual quantities vo sne belligerent nations brought the dis closure yesterday of the fact that the United States government has in formation of Hollands intention to export 50,000 tons of potatoes to Ger many.
 Officials here believe that in ex- pressing willingness to export pota- toes to each of the. belligerents Hol- land is undertaking to disguise her in- tention of supplying large quantities of food to Germany alone. Shipments Germany already are under way cording to cable advices, the move ment following closely upon the an- nouncement in Germany of the reduc- tion of the potato ration from seven to three pounds weekly.
 To furnish Germany anything like 50.O00 tons of potatoes, Holland, it was said yesterday, not only would be yio- lating an agreement with Great Britain to supply that country and Germany each with 5000 tons of po- tatoes yearly, but also probably would be imperiling her food agree ment with the United States.

CONSTABLE SAYS
 HASN'T REFUSED
 SERVE WARRANTS
Green Declares That Muni- cipal Court Judge and
 Clerk Boycott Him.

Constable Clint c. Green declared yesterday that the statement made by
 Municipal Judge Earl s. Wood be- fore the city council Monday to the effect that the constable department had been given 15 or 20 warrants in months past and they "were not serv- ed, tho the parties were walking around the streets" was not true. The constable further declared that the first thing did this morning af- ter reading The Graphic was to go to the courtroom and ask him (Judge WoodD about it, and he denied saying it." According to Constable Green, Judge Wood said he referred to only one case" As there were one mayor, eight councilmen, one chief of police and one city attorney as we'll as The Graphic representative and the muni- cipal judge in the council chamber
 Monday night during the discussion, the question as to whether Judge Wood was correctly quoted in The Graphic is hardly debatable.
 Constable Green charged that not
 only did the municipal court clerk,
 presumably at the orders of Judge Wood, give to the sheriff's depart ment for service warrants in cases "worked up" by the constable's de-
 partment, but that the clerk had sought to dissuade plaintiffs in some civil suits from having the consta-
 ble's department serve summons.
 Mir. Green said he made this charge
 in the courtroom yesterday, that Court Clerk Lee denied it, and that he then cited instances, and offered to substantiate his charge by going before the persons named.
 Constable Green said that in the
 one case where he had not served a
 warrant, a colored woman from the country made complaint against her husband and gave an address 1n ho-
 boken. Hd found there was no such address, and was unable to locate the accused, he said. \ This occurred about six weeks ago.
 That he is ready to cooperate; that he was misrepresented by Judge Wood in the latter's statement be- fore the council, and that he so told the municipal judge in court yester- day were other statements made by the constable. who declared that in- stead of not cooperating he and his men are not being given opportunity
 to cooperate. |,
 Here we are" he sair, "doing nothing sometimes, and they'll pass Us and take the papers over to the sheriff's office"
