Word has just been received from
Nr. Straus that if necessary, he will
divide the town into delivery routes,
and see that these routes are enforc-

as a patriotic duty to our Govern
ment. with the stores in making the
saving in man power and they are
asked to take note of the stores who
are displaying official hangers, signed

created by men going to the front and
other war positions. Customers, if
for nothing else, for at least patriot
ism, patronize the stores following

at Camp American University.

Prfvates George Shafer and John
w. Kover. the two soldiers who were
injured severely about a week ago
by the bomb explosion at the test
ing field of Camp American Univer-
sity, were last night reported to be
in q fair way to recovery from their
wounds at Providence Hospital,
where they had been taken soon af-
ter the accident
The two men were guards at the
entrance to the testing grounds, and
challenged a private who had un-
dertaken to go through without ex-
hibiting his pass He was carrying
a loaded bomb at the time, and laid
it down temporarily while he went
back after his pass. remarking that
he had forgotten it.
The bomb exploded with consid-
cradle force a few moments later,
fracturing Kover's right leg and in
juring Shafer's right foot to such
an extent that portions had to be
amputated.
Soldiers at the camp are making
daily experiments with explosives
and gasses Of various kinds, and be-
cause workmen are engaged in con-
structing additions to the camp, no
person is allowed entrance to the
grounds without a pass, signed by

chine Confident Recent
Test a Success.

Boston, Mass, June 3o.-Happy and
confident Garabed X. Giragossian, Ar
menian inventor, Is satisfied with the
results Of the secret governmental test
Of "garabed." his fuelless machine,
which generates unlimited energy
from the air.
Although the experts In electrical
engineering chosen to make the test
at the instance Of Congress- admitted
that II was contrary to natural law
what its inventor asserted for Il from
the outset-it is believed that they
were satisfied that the machine is at
least worth another Investigation,
owing to the tremendous Importance
OF the invention should Il prove sue
cessful, the test was conducted with
the utmost secrecy. and the result is
known only TO those who witnessed
the demonstration in an unnamed
building here. Franklin K. Lane,
secretary of the Interior, will be in
formed of the scientists report and
take any action that he may deem
necessary.
Mr.. Lane has announced that the in
vention. should IL prove Of value, will
be protected by the government and
up to the present Il has been carefully
guarded by its inventor and govern
ment agents. Tho premier test, which
pleased Mr.. GIragossian, may be fol-
lowed by ahother before the govern
ment decides TO take action, as II
could not be learned here whether the
experts report would be founded upon
what they had already seen or
whether they would ask for another
demonstration.
Any announcement on the result
will be made from Washington, where
1t was said that the investigators
were chosen by the inventor and ap-
proved by Mr.. Lane.

CLERK WANTED
But Its Only. a Joke; Pa
triotism Knew No
Bounds.

The real Of clerk in one Of the
government bureaus for the war saw
ings stamps cause furnished one OF
the most amusing incidents OF the
on the last day Of the crive.
He conceived an idea which. while
striking in Its originality, proved
somewhat expensive to him and was
also the cause of his spending . very
uncomfortable half hour.
Finding that the stamp sales At a
neighboring BULLET booth had slack
oned, he approached and bought one
hundred thrift stamps and then on
nounced in true ballyhoo fashion, that
he would resell the stamps at Is cents
each, standing a personal loss of 10
cents on each. In an astonishInsly
short time. in fact as quickly as he
could hand them out. they were dis
posed OF to bargain seekers. Then he
returned to his desk with the con-
seriousness of q patriotic duty well
performed.
Secret Service After Him.
A few moments later, his desk tele-
phone jingled and q strange voice In
formed hir1 that he would shortly be
waited upon by q Secret Service agent
with orders to explain why he had
been guilty Of selling government
bonds below par. a crime punishable
by a minimum fine OF 5000. With
cold beads Of perspiration on lis brow
the clerk sought the advice Of his
chief" The latter listened gravely.
hAr
that resulted in the information that
the clerk had been a victim of q prac-
teal Joker in his own bureau, who
had been responsible for the telephone
message. and that the "crime of SELL
ing government bonds below par" was
at least not recorded on The statute
books.
