SHERIFF BRINGS SHUPE BACK
TO ADJUST AUTO MATTER

Sheriff Thunderstorm arrived home
last Sunday morning from Laramie,
Wyoming. accompanied by res
dent of the former place, and in the
employ of the Union Pacific Mr..
Shupe will be remembered as hav-
ing been engaged in the restaurant
business here for some time. In
company with his family some six
weeks or so ago, Mr. Shupe vamoosed
in the wee hours of the morning, and
with his departure he left number
of creditors here "holding the sack :"
Among the articles the Shupe fam
lily took with them was a Ford auto
mobile upon which the Julesburg Mo-
tor Co. held mortgage, and upon this
count sheriff Thunderstorm induced
Mr.. Shupe to return to Julesburg and
settle matters, or stand consequences
of prosecution. Arrangements were
made whereby Mr.. Shupe will adjust
the automobile matter, but his other
creditors. who have no recourse, are
still "holding the sack" as a reward
of gratitude for their having extend
ed to him credit Mr.. Shupe returned
to Laramie Sunday.

Every sugar beet producing COM
munity in Colorado should begin at
once to induce the planting of sugar
beets upon scale equal at least to
that of last year. Local industrial
welfare and national war success de-
pend in great measure upon the pro-
duction Of large sugar beet crop for
1918. Farmers may argue that the
nation and our allies are crying for
wheat, and that the decreased beet
acreage is due, in part, to the effort to
increase wheat production.
1t is true that the need of wheat is
mperative-but SO is that of sugar,
Both are of vital need to the sucsess-

Wheat is strictly limited. There
Is little barley and rye left in the
country. Cornmeal, oatmeal, pota-

The United States Food Admins

observe the following rules:
Households not to exceed one and
one half pounds Of flour week for
each person-flour in Victory bread,
macaroni, pastry, cakes and other
wheat products all combined.
Public eating places and clubs to
keep within the same allowance for
every twenty-one meals served, and 10
serve not more than two ounces Of
wheat flour or other wheat products
to guest at any one meal
Retail purchases to be limited to
2ii2 pounds at time to town GUS
toner and forty-nine pounds to a
country customer at any one time;
every purchase of wheat flour to b.
accompanied with at least an equal
weight Of other cereals.
Bakers and grocers to hold down
their purchase of flour to 70 per cent
of their former average, three-quarter
pound loaves to go a. far as a pound
loaf formerly did in the family.
No wheat to be used in manufacture
for anything but food.
There is nothing in this program
that need interfere with. wholesome
diet. Those who are in position to
do it can get along perfectly well with
next to no wheat at all-and they
ought to give margin for those who
cannot adapt their circumstances to
so large a proportion Of substitutes
Until harvest these restrictions are
necessary. They will be supported by
strict regulation or distribution as far
as the law gives authority, in order
that the supply may be adjusted to
needs as eGuitably as possible. After
harvest it should be possible to relax
the restrictions; until then your gov
ernment asks for the patience, sacri-
flee and cooperation of the distribut-
ing trades and of all citizens.

Liberty Loan Pledges
Coming In Very Slow
Continued from first page)


On the street you will hear man
say, 81 gave $4,000 or 100000 this
time" as the case may be. The fact
IS ne did not give penny. Our Gov
vernment asks our boys to give. 1t
only asks Us to lend 1t is a wond-
erful investment that is offered. 1t
is big opportunity. We must
&c: away from the idea that our Lib
erty Bonds represent sacrifice.
The report has came that smooth
stock statesmen prey upon this mistak-
en- notion and go throughout the coun-
try taking Liberty Bonds in payment
for their contracts for stock. When
a man feels that his bond is not worth
what he paid for it, the sale of worth
less stock is made easy by offering to
take the Liberty Bond in exchange for
it. Don't let these people work you.
Your bond is worth what you paid for
it. 1t is just as good as money and
then it draws interest. Every one Of
US owes it to his country, first, to
buy bond and second to hold the
bond even in spite of adversely. The
greater duty of the two is the duty
to hold the bond because when you do
that, you are transferring your buying
power to your Government and that is
really what the Government is asking
for and that is just why it is willing
to nav YOU interest.

automobiles can secure charters and

this bill weaker than the present law

are convinced that this is a most in

nelles In all, the Cassard acting gen.
orally as convoy to troop ships, but
one trip was much like another. and
! cannot remember all the details, SC
will give only certain incidents OF
the voyages that you might find inter.
esting. We never put into the Darda'
nelles without being under fire-but
besides saying so, what is there to
write about In that? 1t was interest
ing enough at the time, though. you
can take 1t from me.
Coming up to "V" beach on our
third trip to the Dardanelles, the
weather was as nasty as any l have
ever seen. The rain was sweeping
along In sheets-great big drops, and
driven by the wind In regular volleys
You could see the wind coming, by the
line Of white against swell where
the drops hit.
AS we rounded the point, the seas
got chopper, and there were cross
currents bucking the ship from every
angle, It seemed. You could not see

mission, he was free to think that II
he wanted to. II seems as though he
did take II that way, for he gave me
a note to the sub commander and sent
him another note by messenger. l
wanted Murray to GO too, but the Old
Man said one was enough.
So, two days later, I went aboard
in the morning and had breakfast
with the sub crew and good break
fast IL was, too. After breakfast they
took stations and the commander went
up on the structure amidships, which
was Just under the coming tower, and
/ squatted down on the deck beneath
the structure.
Then the gas engines started up
and made an awful racket and shook
the old tub from stem to stern. I
could tell that we had cut loose from
the dock and were moving. After a
while they shut off the gas engines
and started the motors and we began
to submerge. When we were all the
way under l looked through the peri
scope and saw Dutch merchantmen.
We stayed under about half an hour
and then came back to the surface.
One of the garbies was telling me
later on that this same sub had gone
out of control few weeks before
and kept diving and diving until she
struck bottom. 1 do not know how
many fathoms down 1t was, but 1t was
farther than any commander would
take sub IL he could help It. This
garby said they could hear the plates
cracking and 1t was a wonder that
they did not crumple up from the
pressure. but she weathered It, pres
sure button and all, and in a quarter
Of an hour was on the surface. While
on the surface they sighted smoke,
submerged again, and soon, over the
horizon came eight battleships, es-
corted by Zepps and destroyers.
They tested their tubes before they
got IN range. Finally they let 60 The
first shot missed, but after that they
got into it good and the garby said all
you could hear was the knocking of
the detonated guncotton.
About five minutes later they sight
ed five destroyers. two on each bow,
and one dead ahead. The sub steered
in at right angle zlgzags and the de-
stroyers stayed with their convoy. The
sub launched two torpedoes at less
than mile before diving, to get away
from the destroyers and the garby
said at least one of them was hit
These ships must have been some
of the lucky ones that came down
from the North sea. The garby said
he thought they were Off the Dutch
coast at the time, but he was not
sure.
But this cruise that I was on was
only a practice cruise and we did not
meet with any excitement in the short
time that we were out.

hardly any sleep, no water, sometimes
no food. They made mark there at
Galllpoli that the world will have TO
go some TO beat.
Our boys were on the job, too. We
held our part of the works until the
time came for everybody to quit, and
il was no picnic. The French should
he very proud of rhe work their navy
did6there in the Dardanelles.
On our sixth trip ] saw II. NJ. y.
Goliath get II. She was struck three
times by torpedoes and then sheled.

the water, with shrapnel cutting the
waves all around them. Only hun
drcd odd of her crew were saved.
One day, of Cape Helles, during
our seventh trick at the Dardanelles,
we sighted sub periscope just about
dinner time. The Prince George and a
destroyer sighted the sub at the same
time, and the Prince George let go
two rounds before the periscope dis
appeared but did not hit the mark.
Transports, battleshlps and cruisers
were thick around there, all ut anchor,
and it was great place for sub
TO be.
In no time at all the destroyers
breezed out with their tails In the
air, throwing IA smoke screen around
the larger ships. They hunted high
and low, all over the spot where she

hold of stanchion and took deep
breath and held on. When my head
showed above water again the other
end of the wave was just passing over
the place where the garbies had been,
and the officer was shouting "Un
homme a la merl" He shouted before
the man really was overDoard, because
he saw that the wave would get him.
/ rushed back to the port bow and
looked back, for the wave had carried
him clear across the decks, and saw
the poor lad In the water, trying to
fend himself OFF from the ships side.
But 1t was no go, and the port pro-
peller blades just carved him into bits.
On our homeward voyage we re-
ceived word again by wireless that
there were Zeppelins at sea. We did
not believe this and II proved to be
untrue. But there were other stories
and taller ones, told us by one of the
wireless operators. that some of the
