HUN THIEVES BLAST VICTIMS
German Looters Are Hurled into
Eternity When Munition Trains
Blow Up.

London, Nov. 23.-An explosion of
munition trains at the station of Ha-
mont, Belgium, caused casualties esti-
mated at between 1900 and 1000.
One hundred and fifty dead already
have been counted. The destruction
in the vicinity was enormous. Assist
ance is being sent to the stricken re-
gion from all directions. Dutch mill
tary aid has been sent across the Dor
der.
The trains were standing at the sta
ton at lamont when the explosion
occurred and the entire region was
soon a sea of fire. NeighbOring
houses collapsed, burying their occu-
pants. Three German ambulance
trains caught fire and one was de-
stroyed, Is of the occupants being
burned to death. Most of the victims
we're German soldiers who had been
plundering the trains. A few Dutch
soldiers also were killed.

DEMOCRATS IN SENATE
FIX 1920 TAX LIMIT
Republicans Object and Bill May
Be Held Up for Extra
Session.

Washington, Nov 26.-By partisan
vote of 9 to 6 the senate finance com
mittee fixed the total amount to be
raised by taxes in 1920 to $4,00O,OOO,-
600.
Amendments to effect the necessary
reduction will be submitted to the
committee by Chairman Simmons.
All the Democrats on the committee
supported the cut, suggested by Sec
rotary McAdOO. The Republicans
voted against it, including Lodge, Pen
rose, Smoot, McCumber, Dillingham;
and La Toilette.
The committees action makes it
extremely Improbable the revenue bill
will be passed at the coming short
session of congress. The Republican
senator's announced they will block
any attempt to put the. bill through
with such a provision which, in their
OpiniOn, would tie the hands of the
incoming Republican congress.
If the bill fails, as seems likely,
President Wilson will have to call con-
gress in extraordinary session soon
after March to enact a tax bill.

RISK LIVES TO CATCH FISH
indian Boys Get Rich Harvest From
Breaking Waves Off the Coast
of Washington.

Even the lads of nine and twelve
years at the old Indian settlement OF
La Push, nesting behind the pinnacle
rocks that rise out Of the Pacific ocean
off the mouth of the Quillayute river
in Washington, are doing their share
toward winning the war. The lads
half dressed, dash across the beach
to meet the incoming tide, wade into
the water and wait for the waves to
break with fish. AS the combers break
the lads dash into the boiling surf
and rake the ocean for fish, FIRE.
quently the waves dash over the boys
heads, but they never lose their foot
ing and the danger of the work does
not excite more than passing attention
from the old women weaving baskets.
During the day the Indians at La
Push village average fully a ton or
fish caught with dip nets. The older
men help with the curing when their
days work is done, but it is the boys
task to capture the fish.
With each tide thousands Of smelt
are driven inshore. Each lift OF the
dip nets from the surf generally
brings basketful of fish.
Three of Quillayutes are now in
the military service. There are now
$50 men, women and children In the
little settlement, but each is doing
his or her share with fishing, war
gardens and other activities to help
win the war;

COAL HELD TO BOOST PRICE
Senator Reed Charges Producers
Stored Anthracite When Too
Much Was Mined.

Washington, Nov. 26.-With J. B.
Neale, director of anthracite produc-
ton for the fuel administration on the
stand, Senator Reed attempted TO
nroye that anthracite coal operators
always have limited fuel production in
order to keep up prices. Neale. him
self a millionaire coal operator, con-
tended that anthracite operators prior
to the period of government supervis-
ion always were able to meet the de-
mand. ''But there never was a sur
Mus" Reed observed. There never
was a surplus put on tie market. The
coal was stored if it was evident too
much had been produced, in order to
keep up prices" Reed added. Seventy
per cent of the anthracite coal is pro-
duced by seven railroad coal COM
panies, Neale said.

When Busy Little knitter Ap-

Two girls travelling on Il train
through Hoosierdom could have learn
ed lesson from plain little Indiana
school teacher, had they been wise
enough to do so. They were going on
a pleasure trip and determined to have
pleasure all the way. On the train
they munched candy, read magazines,
played rhum and tried in every way
they could to attract the attention Of
two uniformed young men near them
but all in vain.
The little school teacher, who was
on her way to attend a county lnstl-
tute, got on the train at little country
town. Shyly she entered the car, quiet
ly she took a seat across from the TWO
girls, who were rather noisy in their
efforts to gain notice, and Immediately
after she was settled she began to fin
ish beautiful knitted soldier sweater.
IndustriOusly she worked-sO intent
on her work that she noticed no one.
But the people noticed her and ap-
preciated her zeal and the quality OF
her patriotism. They smiled whenever
they passed her seat and prOffered her
the loan of their papers and books.
And before many miles had been trav-
eled one of the khaki-clad youths was
beside her and the other one opposite.
The sweater had been examined, the
process of making it explained to the
youths, and now they were telling the

AMERICAN SPIRIT
RELIED ON TO WIN.

In the light of succeeding events 1t
is interesting to recall the confidence
with which the United States Food
Administrator viewed the gloomy out
look in July of 1917, when this coun-
try had been in the war for less than
four months and the Germans were
steadily sending the western front
nearer and nearer to Paris.
"Even though the situation in Eu-
rope may be gloomy today" he de-
clared in a public statement, mo
American who has knowledge Of the
results already obtained in every di-
rection need have one atom Of fear
that democracy will not defend itself

Winnipeg's Growth.

Prior to 1916 Winnipeg was nothing
more than a chief trading post OF the
Hudson Bay company, whose head
quarters were at Fort Garry Greeted
in 1885, on ground now included in
the city. The first house of the ham,
let was built in 1866. The city was in
corporated in 1873, and its growth
since has been marvellous. The area
of the city by 1912 was 1900 acres.
The population in 1870 was 800; In
1916 it was 1872 500.

is effective throughout the State. He

That gardening is seven-eighths COM

the most significant statement made 10y
Miss Marion Exley of the Amber School
of Horticulture, yesterday afternoon, IN
the first of series of lectures on garden
ing, offered free TO the public by the New
Century Club. There was an audience
yesterday that filled the club parlors and
il is hoped that a larger number of per-
sons will take advantage next Thursday
afternoon 10 hear Miss Exley talk on
Organic Manures. Yesterday the
preparation of soil was taken up by Miss
Exlcy and she stated that the best time
10 start garden is in the fall, when the
ground should be fcrtilized and plowed
md left in rough state all winter. Then
II can be narrowed very early in the spring
and the planting can usually be done a
month earlier than when the plowing is
eft of TIL spring
The depth OF the plowing is important
and IL should be varied from year to year,
/ inches one wear, 5 another and if pos
sihle another, so that the same strata OF
earth will not he turned over continually.

Decsyed manure should always be used
m the spring, and never undecayed
Leaves that are not used for plowing in,
IN the fall, can be piled up for decom-
position and used as fertilizer in the
spring.
Miss Exley believes in constant
cultivation OF the soil, and in little If any
artificial watering She stated that cult
waiting daily is much more beneficial than
the same amount of time spent on water
ing. The soil should, however, never be
cultivated when II is wet.
Lime for soil was taken up by the lee
turer, and she advised IL not oftcner than
once a year, usually once in two or three
years being enough. Clayey soil needs
manure rather than lime. Air Stacked
lime is preferable to water Stacked. and
