HAVE YOU HAD YOUR BONDS
CONVERTED YET?

The Tazewell banks call especial
attention to the fact that the time
limit for the conversion of bonds of
the first and second Liberty Loans
will. soon expire. The Bank of Clinch
Valley and the Tazewell National
Banks have carried an advertisement
in this paper for the past month call
ing the attention of the people to
the fact that bonds should be pre-

you fail to do this you lose the in

NORTH TAZEWELL "OVER THE
TOP

The Town Council of North Taze-
well, at recent meeting, found that
there was balance in the treasury
of $1,000. The question came up,
"What shall we do with it?' Some
body said, BUY War Savings Ger
tificates," and without discussion, or
at least very little, it was so ordered.
So far as known here, North Taze-
we'll is the only town in this county
or in this section to do such thing.
The municipality of North Tazewell

DIR. CLAFLIN AT THE METHOD
IST CHURCH.

DR.. Claiiin, the representative of
the Anti-Saloon League of America,
made n strong address in tho Mthod-
ist church last Sunday night. There
was large audience.
The speaker presented his cause in
an unique and striking manner by
comparing the war in Europe and the
"war" in this country against liq-
uors.
First, as to the cost in money. The
cost Of the war to America, for the
next year, he said, if it continues, will
be between thirty and forty billion
dollars; not millions" mind you, but
billions, an inconccivnble amount. The
cost of liquor in America for the last
% years, interest Mt per cent COM
pounded, amounts to more than I5O
billion dollars.
Second, as TO cost in human life.
If the American army numbers ms
many as two million men next year,
the number of fatalities, he said, will
be about Ill 900 men.
The number of deaths, accrding to
the best authorities, due to liquor,
reaches the enormous amount of 500,-
600 year. That is to say, about five
times as many men arc slain by booze
yearly as are slain in battle in the
greatest war of history. These tell
ing facts made n deep impression on
the audience.
AT the close pledges were asked
for the work and the sum of $4,000
was pledged, to be paid in monthly
lnstalments. At Pocahontas, $257.00
was given. Al Richlands OH Monday
night, $4,000. DR.. Clafin was dis
appointed keenly in the amount of
Tazewell's subscription.

CLEVELAND TRACTOR DEMON.
STRATION.

All who saw the demonstration on
Monday Of the Cleveland tractor, by
S. j. Peters, county agent, feel sat
isfied that this tractor did work that
no other four-whcel tractor can do.
One man openly expressed regret
that he had not seen the Cleveland
three months ago. Remarkable, his
expression! Don't buy tractor be-
cause it is cheap. Buy one that will
do your work. To those who were
unable to attend the demonstration
as well as those who desire further
particulars. Phone S. j. Peters
agent for TaZewell and Russell coun-
tics. You cannot realize the many
uses Cleveland is built for or any
conception of it's power or ability un-
til you have seen one.-Adv.

LIBERTY LOAN DIRECTIONS AND
SUGGESTIONS.

Tazewell County's allotment has
not been made at this writing. The
amount will be about twice that of
the Third Loan. This means that
the man who bought a one hundred
dollar bond last time must buy two
one hundred dollar bonds this time,
or find buyer for the other 100-dol-
lar bond.
You can pay in instalments if you
choose, but pay cash if possible, even
if you have to borrow the money, in
order to save the banks extra trouble
and expense.

his brow.
Ere you close your eyes in

Justicia Second
Largest Victim
OF German Boats

The Justicia, reported sunk off the
Irish coast, was vessel Of $4,000 tons.
Only one larger ship, the Britannia, a
White Star liner of $4,000 tons, has
fallen prey to Uboats. The Lusitania
was a vessel of about $4,000 tons. The
Justicia was returning to an American
port after landing a large number of
American troops.
Officials of the Holland America Line,
for which the Justicia was built and
to which the ship would have reverted
was valued at s10,0oo,oOo, and was
built to be one of the finest passenger
ships in transatlantic service. She was
supposed to be as nearly unsinkable
as modern ship construction would
make her.
On her last trip from an Atlantic
port the Justicia was commanded by
Captain A. E. S. Hambleton, and car
ried nearly 10000 troops, from 1000
tc 5000 in excess of her rated capacity,
and $4,000 ton cargo She was a
triple screw turbine driven vessel,
capable of eighteen knots, and had a
double bottom fore and aft, with eleven
watertght bulkhcads extending up to
the bridge deck. The ship had nine
steel decks and three tunnels and was
no feet long. Her crew numbered 500

Admiral Warns Against
Noise When Troops Sail

BOSTON. July 24.-Rear Admiral
Spencer S. Wood, commandant of the
First Naval District, in statement
tonight, called the attention of all
ship masters and factory managers to
the danger to which troops and sail
ors are subjected as result of the
blowing of whistles, ringing Of bells
or of any other demonstration in cele-
bration of the sailing of troop tran
sports from American ports"
at is we'll known by ALL" the state
ment continued, that an enemy sub
marine is lurking in the waters adjac-
ent to this coast, that the sinking of
coal barges and fishing vessels is mere
ly incidental to the real mission.
"To sink our transports, to train
machine gun fire mercilessly on our
men who may be struggling to save
themselves from drowning, is the real
purpose for which this submarine was
sent 5000 miles from her base.
ut is therefore the plain duty of
every American not only to refrain
from any demonstration whatsoever in
connection with ship sailings, but to
refrain even from the discussion OF
salllngs, or preparations for sailings
which may come to his attention.
"1t must be remembered there are
persons in our midst who would, if op-
portunity offered, make traitorous use
of any information of naval or mill
tary character"

German Duplicity
To Irish Revealed
by The Associated Press)

DUBLIN, July 24.-The press censor
has issued for publication in to-mor-
rows papers important documents con-
tanning the original detailed reports of
various Irish volunteer leaders in
Cork, Kerry and Limerick, explaining
10 the Irish volunteer executive their
actions during the rebellion.
The reports are dated September
1911, and are said to show "the utter
1utlllty of the rising and the treachery
and caliousness of the Germans toward
their unfortunate dupes."
The DOCUMENTS we're seized by the
police during a search in May last of
the offices of the Association for Afford
ing Aid to Rebellion Sufferers. They
narrate the confusion of plans, follow
ing the failure to land an army and
Sir Roger Easements arrest.
Colonel Wet, of the Limerick Volun-
ters, concluding his report, says: con
Monday morning Lieutenant Whelan
returned from his second trip to Ira
lee, having seen Monteith Captain
Robert Monteith of the German army,
who was landed in Ireland from a Ger
man submaine i, and brought word
from him that no men were coming,
that the arms sent to us were gone,
that the Germans were out for cheap
Irish blood and that the best thing we
could do was to try to bluff through.
About 1880 Monday l received from
Pearse Patrick H. Pearse, "Provisional
President" of Ireland, who was exc
cuted a message beginning, as we'll as
| remember: The Dublin brigade goes
into action at noon to-day, carry out
your orders'"

Arrest Is of More Than
Ordinary Importance,
u. S. Officers Say
Internment Probable
Federal Authorities Decline
to Associate Kunhafdt
With U-Boat Raids

BOSTON, July 24.--Oswald Kunhardt
formerly German and Austrian consul
in this city, was arrested to-day as an
enemy alien at his home in Manchester
and brought here. Federal officers re-
fused to comment on report that the
arrest was connected with submarine
activity off the coast.
1t was admitted, however, that in
formation in the possession of the Off
cials indicated that the arrest was OF
more than ordinary Importance.
Mr.. Kunhardt's apartments in Man
chester were searched by agents Of the
Department of Justice. At the office
of Judd Dewey, Assistant United
States District Attorney in this city
it WAS said that Mr. Kunhardt probably
would be interned for the duration OF
the war.
Up to the time this country entered
the war; Mr.. Kunhardt was a member
of the Tennis and Racquet Club, ar
exclusive organization. He also was
representative here of the Berlin Ami
line Works, which controlled a large
part of the business in German dyes
in this country.
After the declaration of war Mr.
Kunhardt resigned from the Tennis and
Racquet Club. He continued his con-
sular work for time, representing
Austria until relations of the United
States with that country were severed
In registering some months ago as
an enemy alien, he said that he had
been in this country nineteen years
and was fortytwo years of age. He
is unmarried
