Mixed Ale" Marty Weeps Over
Prospects Of Dry, Dry Town

He sat alone on a bench in City Hall
Park yesterday, a picture of unhempt
and pcnniless age and grief. The chem
istry of uncounted years had turned his
battered derby green. His clothing,
rent, patched and frayed, huddlcd in
unscemly bulges and wrinkles. Between
the down-tipped brim of his hat and
turned up lapcls of his coat only his
nose and a bit of mustachc peeped
forth. The nose WAS an WHOLESOME
red, the mustachc yellowsh white.
He was mixed Ale" Marty Donahue,
cX-Bowery houncer, and the blcared
eyes which the hatbrim concealed were
contemplating with watcry gaze q news
announced that the country was going
dry in nine months. The muttering
lips of MIXED Ale" Marty were pro-
nouncing the doom of the world, and
his eyes, the only aqueous feature in
his alcoholic ensemble, were oozing
tears.
"'Tis the end of the world" said
"Mixed Alc' Marty, in tones Of gloomy
conviction. 81 knew twas comm, but

Martyrs own pre-Lexow world came to
an end long ago, but Marty has refused
to recognize the fact and was mourn
ing yesterday over the approach of
fact long accomplished.
For before mixed Ale" Marty Dona-

in alcohol he lived by his wits in the
world whose sun was a -globed light.

With twinkle in his eye and mock

BUSY BUSINESS MEN
Science Helps Them Out After
Recklessly Abusing the Stomach

The most reckless man in regard
to health is the busy business man.
At noon he rushes out for a bite to
eat. He bolts his food without prop
er mastication, and heaps on his
stomach an extra burden greater
than it is able to carry without
breaking down.
His overworked stomach is crying
for help; it appeals to him for re-
lief in various ways: Expulsion of
sour gas, waterbrash, sour taste in
mouth, heaviness after eating, short
ness of breath, bad breath, etc.
One Mi-o-na tablet taken with or
after each meal will help any suffer-
er from dyspepsia wonderfully. 1t
aids the stomach in the work of di-
gestion which it must perform.
Mt-o-na tablets are sold by H. C.
Kennedy with rigid guarantee to
overcome dyspepsia and all stomach
troubles, or money back. They make
eating a pleasure.
Mi-o-na cleanses and purifes the
stomach and bowels and puts vigor
and strength into the overworked a
tissues. 1t is the surest stomach
tonic in the world.

Hats FOrcibly Removed
by Crowd When Wearers
Refused to Dof Them

w. H. Hayes will know enough
to take off his hat when the Star
Spangled Banner" is played in the
future, If police have anything to
say about it.
During the excitement attendant
upon the receipt of the news of the
American victory last night, Hayes
is said to have refused to take off
his hat during the playing of the
national anthem. A party of pa
triotiC citizens passing ordered him
to remove his hat, and when he
failed to do so it was knocked from
his head. Police say when he
stopped to pick it up he struck one
of the women in the crowd who had
ordered his headgear removed.
Threats of mob him" and lynch
him" flew thick and fast for a few
minutes, and the man was taken to
the police station. where he declared
he had struck the woman accident
ally while reaching for his hat. Po-
lice held him under a $25 forfeit. 1t
is said his home is in New York, and
he is a Pullman conductor.
A number of other hats were for
chilly removed and crushed under
the feet of the crowd last night
when their owners refused to re-
move them. Police, however, affirm
that the crowd, as a rule. was or
derby and no other misdemeanors
were reported.

of New York gave the one great
recognition. of that patriotism and
that service that lay in their hands
to give; equality of opportunity and
of expression in the political life
of our state.
THE men of New York have
ceased to restrict the women to the
four C's of the Kaiser, church, chill
dren, cooking and clothes. They
have accepted and will use to the
advantage of the state our aptitude
for governmental as we'll as for home
work.
Now we are in the war and our
one effort is to win it. The Declara-
ton of independence stands for
most of us for something greater
than the freedom of the body, it
stands for the freedom of the spirit
and that is what we are fighting for.
Because of that desire for the free
dom of the spirit, comes the pas
sion of patriotism.
Politics is patriotism on the job.
No man or woman can be a patriot
who does not seek to express his or
her love of country through the
coUntry's political system. This can
not be done by proxy. Men ana
women themselves must vote, them
selves must assume the response
bility of the vote to be practlcal
patriots, and in the onrush of these
times it is only the practical appli-
cation of patriotism that counts.

Hun Prisoners, Sent Back
Home, Shocked by Brutality

London.-Ger who are sent
back to Germany after having been
interned in England, are shocked at
the treatment they receive and at
conditions prevailing in their father
land. This is shown by letters recelV-
ed by friends of some of the prison.
ers who have been repatriated.
About 10 o'clock in the morning,
writes one, I'VE left for the good old
fatherland. The first stop we made
was at Gochinery, where we were
kept six days for examination. From
there | was sent to Dortmund, where
! was forced by the military to work
in a munition factory. l stuck 1t out
for three days.
We'll, you know in what condition
l was when | left England. | had to
handle hundred pounds of shells
and more. l tried my best, but l was
not strong enough for the work, so
the third day / told them l was too
weak and left the place.
Il was then ordered to do only
governmental work, as otherwise l
should be taken for the army; well,
l thought this took the cake after
being interned three and half
years. l thought l would get my lib
erty in the fatherland, but / really
was worse off than at the English
camp.
II sold all my things as quickly as
l could, and on the night of the
| deserted into Holland. 1t was
foggy night and a long and danger
Gus march. Well, dear friend, l think
you would have done the same.
Il give you word of advice:
whatever yo udo, don't apply for re-
patriation. You get less to eat in Ger
many than where you are at present.
l was fool for going back"
Another repatriated prisoner
writes:
Il have been here about ten days.
But what a disillusion. Things are
not as they used to be; everything is
strange, and one rushes about like
lost sheep. Yes. so it is, Paul, and
consider we'll before you act. Our
business here is absolutely dead. My
new boots l can easily sell for a hun
dred marks (S25), my suit of clothes
for about 200 marks $500. l need
say no more. The prices paid for
food are unheard Of"
The following is a message sent to
a prisoner in England from Ger

You are in heaven as compared
with us. Don't come to the father
land if you can help it. We are all

to eat in camp than we here"

TO DECIDE ON
TRAFFIC LAWS
At Meeting Tonight Pending
Measure Will Get Final
Hearing

Members of Council at a conference
to be held this evening, win attempt
to decide finally what action to take
on the traffic ordinance now pending
Weeks ago the ordinance, combining
all of the present city regulations, of
right-of-way streets, one-way
streets. and other rules, was intro
duced by Mayor Keister. The speed
limit in the measure was fixed at tif-
teen miles an hour.
Some members, at the time, said
they would oppose the ordinance if
the fifteenmile limit was retained,
as they declared it would he i'm
possible to handle traffic in the city
with the speed limit fixed that low.
Increasing traffic in the business
district may result in the use of
semaphores, Chief of Police Wetzel
said to-day. Catalogs of various
manufacturing companies have, been
sent for and another conference of the
mayor and police officials will prob
ably be held soon to go over the costs
of the equipment.
Motorists, using the city highways,
declare that the semaphore system
