If there is any skeptic who doubts
the sincere patriotism OF the Amer
lean woman, he should have betaken
himself TO New Carlisle Friday and
halted before a 10-acre field belong
ing to ". j. Smith Of Hudson lake.
There he would have seen that the
process Of cutting silo corn was ap-
parently going on as usual, until per-
haps a distinctly feminine giggle in
formed him that the work was be-
ing done by some of the fair sex.
II happened in this way: Ten
members of the Delta Beta Phi Of
New Carlisle were anxious 10 raise
money for the Belgian babies, but
disliked 10 solicit as there are al
ready so many demands. So when
there was no one 10 help cut corn,
the young women decided that this

evening for murder in the first degree
for having shot. Harry Regenburg to
death Oct 20 last in Regenburg's
apartment at No. CSC Park Place,
Broklyin.
The jury deliberated forty minutes
Chapman showed the iron nerve he
had exhibited throughout the trial,
unconcernedly gave his pedigree and
was taken to Raymond street Jail to
await sentence.
Chapman faltered only once during
the trial That was when Justice
Kapper, in concluding his charge to
the jury, said:
Il instruct you that you must
either find this defendant guilty OF
murder in the first degree or acquit
him"
Chapman seemed about to weep
But quickly gained self possession
and asked for a cigarette. He said
to the deputy sheriffs in the pen
while the jury was out:
Il should worry. You've got to die
some time"
After the jury had returned the
verdict Chapman lit another cigar
cite and pulled nonchalantly until he
was led away. He would make nc

REFUGEES
FROM PAVE At
TAORM|N4 NOW

Taormina, Sicily, Feb. 1S.-Four-
teen hundred refugees from the coun-
try north of the Pave have found
shelter in this old Sicilian mountain
town, described by some Americans
as the most beautiful place in the
world. The hotels which cared for
tourists before the war have been
thrown open to the refugees. They
have rooms generally by families, and
club together for their meals in much
the same way that Italian immigrants
make shift on the emigrant steamers.
English and American residents
Joined with the town people in provid-
Ing clothing The two problems are
food and employment, and represen-
tatives of the American Red Cross
who visited here left fund with the
local war committee to purchase wool
and pay the refugee women for knit
ting warm socks and gloves for the
Italian soldiers.
Five hundred refugees arrived at
midnight at the Giardini station, two
and half miles below on the coast
line railroad, in the midst of a tor
rental downpour. The feeblest and
eldest were brought up in carriages,
hundreds climbed the steep foot path
ir utter darkness and in fear Of the
eerie height to which they were TAX
en-. A very few had bundles of simple
clothing, the majority only the clothes
they were standing in. Some had es-
capped in the night barely clothed.
Many had walked continuously for
five days and nights before reaching
the train, which took eight weary
days and nights to bring them here.
It was so packed that many stood up
the entire distance. Two little chill
dren succumbed to the hardships on
the journey. Many of the families
have missing members. Before reach
ing their trains they endured almost
cloudbursts of rain, the difficult cross
ing Of swollen streams and sodden
plains, with ever the horror of the
pursuing Austrians. During this time
families became separated children
lost their parents, and the few little
treasures from their homes were
gradually dropped aside to make ca,
sier their hurried journeying.

HOTEL AND COTTAGES
AT ST. SIMONS ARE
TOTALLY DESTROYED

Brunswick, Ca, Feb. 13.-F'ire
yesterday destroyed the New St. 81
mons Hotel and all of. the cottages be
longing to the hotel management on
the island. The fire was first discover
ed by w. Arnold, Jr., of the Arnold
Hotel, and he at once formed buck
ct brigade and succeeded in saving a
number of cottages,
Besides the hotel proper, which was
a large and practically new structure
tie bath houses, the machine house
one pavilion, three cottages and two
outhouses were destroyed, while four
or five cottages were more or less
damaged.
The loss is estimated at about $S5,
600, partly covered by insurance. The
hotel was the property of the Bunns
of Fairfax, who four or five years ago
built the handsome hosiery and which
has been successfully operated each
summer since.
The fire appears to be a complete
mystery, as there was no one any
where around the building at the
time. No fire had been in it for sew
eral months. Consequently it is be
lieved that if was the work of incen
diaries. No announcement has been
made as to whether or not the hote
will be rebuilt.

GRAVITY Of GRAIN
SITUATION IS MADE
PLAIN BY NJ ADO0

WASHINGTON, February 1S.-Th'
gravity Of the food situation was i'm
pressed today at the White House
the Senate and on Director of Rail
roads McAdoo.
To facilitate the movement of grain
| for the allies and home consumption
Mr.. McAdoo ordered preference given
to grain shipments throughout all the
pricipal granger states.
The Senate concerned itself with
debate on the CONSUMPTION of labor
for the farms and on approval that
one fast day each month must be estab
lished by law for the entire country.
President Wilson meanwhile re-
ceived delegation of farmers seeking
government aid to solve their prob
lens
Transportation priority for grain,
-four, cornemal and other grain prod
ucts in western and middle western
producing states was ordered by Mr.
McAdoo as a means of fastening to
market all grains, and particularly
the vast accumulated stores of soft
corn.
This corn, full of moisture as a re-
suit of last years growing conditions,
composed 40 per cent of the, stocks in
many sections, and is threatened with
rotting in the moderate weather OF
the last few days, unless rushed to
elevators and dried.
The order is intended also to insure
adequate shipments of grains to mills
to fill allied orders. The situation
was discussed yesterday at a confer
ence between Director General Mr.
Adoo and Sir Richard Crawford, Com
mercial aattache of the British en-
bassy, who expressed fear that bad
transportation conditions of recent
weeks in the United States would
seriously interfere with the allied
food program unless special efforts
were made to hasten grain to sea
ports.
Thousands of box cars will be used
for the grain movement and conse-
uuently will be withheld from indus
trial shipments. Unofficial preferen-
tial orders have been in effect through
out the western states for several
days, and the quantity of grain haul
ed has been far greater than in the
corresponding period of last year.
In addition to supplying more cars
and giving preferential movement,
| railroads were ordered to have their
station agents in rural communities
and traffic agents go to farmers and
explain the necessity of prompt load
ing and movement of their grain
stocks.
Senator Smoot, of Utah, urged in
the Senate the establishment of
monthly fast day to conserve food.
He said that by proper economy in
the observance of one fast day a
month a saving of $5O,00O,000 could be
effected annually by the United States.
Senator Borah, of Idaho, declared
that it is not question of fasting
or of conservation of food, but one OF
labor and transportation to produce
and distribute food.
