Well. Doesn't See II Through.

An edifying little wrangle between
Messrs. Wells and jerome has been
adOrning the correspondence columns
of the London Daily News. Mr.. Jer-
ONE wrote something about "Lengue
Of Reason" Mr.. Wells then snddled
Mr.. Jerome with the elegant reprOach
Of "slobbering with love and forgive
ness abOpt the neck Of the kaiser, the
crown prince, Reventlow and the
Krupp family" Mr.. Jerome, very
naturally, retOrted that he had done
nothing OF the sort, whereupon Mr..
Wells criticised Mr.. Jerome for hold
Ing opinions which Mr.. Jerome sub
sequently stated he did not hold.
After few more lnterchunges of com
pliments the editor of our contempO-
rnry has printed further letter of
Mr.. Jerome's. despite pressing In
vtntiOn OF his for further remarks by
Mr.. Wells, with the intimation. "This
correspondence is now closed" This
embargo places Mr.. Wells In the un-
usual position of being unable to have
the last word.

FIRST NEWSPAPER in BERLIN
In the Year 1861 Weekly journal
Was Published. Edited by the
Electors Physician.

The first Berlin newspaper was
printed in 1861 In the reign of tie
Elector Of Brandenburg. The paper
was edited by Cornelius Bontekoe, a
Hollnnder, physician to the Elector.
Robert Voelker and Elias Locker book.
sellers, were privileged TO sell the
paper. 1t was weekly and appeared
Sunday morning; the clerks Of the
booksellers would sell the papers, in
winter before. and in summer after
church, which was held In the open
from May to September. Those of the
young men who could not get seat
were allowed to climb In the trees to
listen to the sermon.
With his wife, Louise, and the chill
dren and the household, the elector
went regularly to church. He would,
rs a rule, remain standing, while the
.electress and children would occupy
seats under the trees. After the clos
ing prayer the newspaper sale com
menced at the entrance gate. Rupert
VOelker, the first bookseller of Berlin,
was allowed to give the elector copy.
After church the electress and children
would return to the palace. while the
electOr would enter palanquin and
he carried to the Lustgarden. There
he would read the paper. and then
give audience to artists and other
learned men.
One Sunday man wns introduced
who entertained the elector (who be-
leved in the appearance Of the devil
in some form or another) with story
which had happened to farmer ut
the Berlin gate.
AT the Berlin gate" he said, "the
farmers horses stopped suddenly He
left his wagon to coax them to go,
but cOaxing and cursing would not take
them step farther. The farmer
turned his head and saw an ugly wonl-
nm on his wagon, blasphemng God and
promising the farmer wealth. Then
the farmer said: All good spirits The
woman did not move. The farmer got
angry and said: viii you ride? Then
ride In Jesus name and the womhn.
the devil, vanished from the wagon"
The electOr was greatly interested In
the story and ordered the physician
editor to have the story published in
the next issue of the paper as les
son to others not to be tempted by
riches. Current news was not allowed
to be published. Court functions and
fables would find more favor with the
Berllners. A bookseller from Leipzig
came to Berlin to publish another pa-
per. which was promptly forbidden by
the elector. who considered one news
paper sufficient for Berlin.

WAR STIMULATES
USE Of FISH AS
FOOD IN THE j. 5.
Many Kinds Of Fish Unknown
As Food Are Found To Be
Excellent.

WASHINGTON, June 1-One of the
most curious anomalies of the present
war, which has been called the great
est destroyer in the worlds history,
has been the addition of many thous
ands of dollars to the national wealth
of the United States through the utili
Zation of fish foods which were thrown
away as worthless until necessity de-
manded their conservation. Fishing
communities on the Atlantic Gulf and
Pacific coasts and even on the inter-
ior lakes have found their income aug.
mented materially by the public readi.
ness to eat fish, which formerly was
regarded with prejudice through ig-
nOrance of the foods tastiness and nu-
triment.
The radical change which has been
wrought by the war in the fishing in
dustry is reflected in the Fisheries

British Geological Pictures.

A committee OF the British Asso-
citation for the Advancement Of Sci
ence has been engaged for many years
In forming national collection of
photographs illustrating the geology
OF the British Isles. According to the
last report the collection now includes
upward of 5000 pictures. More than
u thousand of these were taken In
Yorkshire. A collection of the same
character has been made by the geo.
logical survey Of Great Britain, which
has recently published a list of Its
Scottish pictures. Both the Il. A. COM
mittse and the geological survey offer
prints and lantern slides for sale. and
printed lists of them are available.

Kansas City, Omaha. Minneapolis st.
Paul, Milwaukee, Chicago and Indian
apolis to stimulate the use of fish. A
bulletin containing recipes for cooking
carp was prepared. State commission
of Minnesota, Wisconsin and Indiana
co-operated in the work. The result
was greatly increased demand for
carp, which continued to grow in fav-
or as the public became acquainted
with its value. More than 100000
pounds of carp were sold from Mime
sofa lakes, and in Milwaukee the
weekly consumption reached $4,000
pounds.
On the Pacific coast there Is a grow
ing demand for sharks, rays and
whales Sharks sell for 10 to IL cents
pound. 1t is said to be especially
delicious when salted or smoked. Mum.
erous canneries have undertaken to
preserve the meat.

John McLarnan, In A. E. F.,
Says Gas Is Huns
Worst Enemy
SUNNY FRANCE IS JOKE
Declares In Letter To Friend
That Weather Is Far
From Pleasant

The following letter from France
has been received by b. i. West from
John w. McLarnan. formerly of this
city, who is now at the front with the
American Expeditionary Forces:
Just got your letter few days ago
and will try to send you few lines.
We are still at the front so you may
know we have plenty to do. II is not
so worse" though, as long as one
manages to keep out of the way of
the kaiser's shells. That is not very
hard to do for when they get to com
ing too close we can go into our dug
outs and stay until he gets through.
The gas is the worst, but we do not
get much of that; have to keep our
masks with us all the time so we will
be ready. The infantry gets most of
it.
We have been having some awful
weather-wet and rainy and chilly all
the time. have begun to think "sun-
ny France" is more or less of Joke.
Some parts may be all right. but they
have evidently sent us to another part.
II the old United States did not fur
nsh us with plenty of clothes, etc,
1t certainly would be disagreeable.

trouble because Of cOrrosion. hut this
has been largely overcome by alter
