Colonel Roosevelt and

AS. Mr.. Roosevelt frankly admits
that he has changed his mind about
making war between the United
States and Great Britain absolutely
impossible. it would be pointless as
well as nngfacious to refer to his
former opposition to treaties of uni
vversal arbitration. His present atti-
tude is that "under no circumstances
shall there ever be resort to war;
between the two countries, adding
that 'sno question can ever arise be-.
tween them that cannot be settled in
Judicial fashion. /" Here is certainly
a doughty reinforcement for the

KEEP HIM REASONABLY BUSY
Preacher Serving In Y. M. C. a. "Hutv
in Training Camp Finds His
Duties Many and Varied.

If there is notion that Z. NJ. G. A.
stamps and handing out pocket tesla
ments. let 1t be di3sipated at once.
One preacher, serving In a hut in
New Jersey camp, reports that he has
done almost everything under the sun
except preach.
He has built fires, swept floors,
looked after hundreds of packages Of
laundry, umpires basketball games, or
ganized glee club, stage-nanaged a
circus, sold ice cream at the canteen,
and driven a flivyer ten miles and
back three times week TO provide
said cream. He las written letters
home for boys who could not write.
and he has taught those same boys
their first lessons in the English lam
guage. He has been a repository for,
hundreds of heart secrets, and he has
served as trustee for the care of as
many as thirty Liberty bonds at a
time.
Perhaps oldest of his many tasks
was one that came his way on Il wild
and stormy night in April. when the,
master of arms at the military station
entered the "Y' hut after taps. carry
ing red box under his arm.
Say" said the master Of arms,
we've got lot of T. N. L. mines
stored at the station. Here's the det-
orators, in this box. There's consid-
cradle lightning around, and it isn't
safe to leave these things close to the
mines. Would you just as soon take
care of the box over night?"
The Red Triangle man slept that
night Tor tried TO sleepy with enough
high explosive under his cot to blow
him half way to heaven.

LEARNING WHITE MANS WAYS
EskInos Said to Be Making Crafty

sionaries' Teachings

On Herschel island, where the sun

not always clothed in the garments OF
propriety, writer in an exchange SAYS.
They had an idea that when the sun
came back its movements were direct
ed by an invisible power, but they had
no tangible conception Of God. They
had no belief in future life, either
Of reward or punishment. Today they
are religious, truthful, kind to their
children and to the aged. They are
ambitious to learn; they are practical,
extremely Industrious, sanitary in
their habits, well clothed and well
housed. Insanity is unknown, but tu-
berculosis is common.
They whale in summer and trap in
winter. They are clever in trading
good workers on land, water and ice,
and take excellent care of their house
hold effects. Tools, If broken, are
neatly repaired. When on Herschel
island or at Fort Mcpherson, they eat
the white mans food with great rel
ish. In summer they eat their fish and
blubber raw and in winter frozen. They
like food cooked, but it Is matter Of
Indifference to them. They will bar
ter for the white mans food, eat
hearty meal of it, and then go out and
eat blubber and raw fish as dessert.
The contents of deer's stomach they
consider great delicacy.

London.--It Is assumed by expert
military observers that the Germans
are about ready to being another drive,
the most desperate Of the war What.
ever Its magnitude the drive is apt to
be the decisive action of the war.
Whether 1t be on a wider front than

enemy, all things considered, made his
most powerful effort Of the year, or
whether II be of more limited proper
tions, the results should determine
which way the tide is turning
The landing Of 100000 Americans
In France has given the allies more
confidence than they have had at any
time since last March. Although there
are only 100000 of our men holding
sectors Of the battle front our reserves
will give the allies numerical superb
GRITTY la the next battle, II is believed.
The allies have attempted TO disar-
range the enemy's plans by a process
Of 'nibbllng." In reality the nibhles
have been rather large bites. Their
object has been to ascertain where the
enemy Is gathering his forces, to Sc
cure jumping off places" for the next
fights and generally to weaken the
enemy.
In this task French, American and
British troops have been engaged
Southwest of scissors the French made
several attacks, gaining ground each
time and taking hundreds Of prisoners.
The most pretentious action of the
past week was carried out by the Aus
trallans, assisted by some companies
of Americans at lie Hamel. 1t was
in the nature of n surprise attack.
Many tanks had been assembled back
of the lines and had been sent forward
at night. Instead of preparing the
way with artillery fire of long dura-
ton, the Australians opened fire just
two minutes before the infantry ''went
over the top" The bombardment from
hundreds of guns was fast and furious,
but the main feature of it was bar
rage of smoke shells. Behind the
try pressed on. The Germans kept up
a steady machine gun fire. but We're
shooting at random because they coulf
discern no targets. Finally, when the
targets appeared, the Germans We're

Chicago Grain.


 Chicago, April 6.-Fresh strength developed in the corn market today as a result of buying on the part of com mission houses with eastern connec- tion. Incentives for purchasing were found in the scantiness of arrivals and in the prospects that the movement from rural holders would not soon in crease, as field work appeared to be moncpolizing the attention of farmers. Opening prices, which ranged from IA to 12 cent higher, with May $1,26 5-8 to $1 ,26 7-S were we'll maintained in the trading which followed.
 Oats reflected the strength of corn, Favorable weather and crop news, however, tended to check upturns. Af- ter opening 1-8@1-4 cent off to a like advance with May S4 5-8 to S5@S5 IS, the market scored sligtht gain all around.
 Announcement that trading in new style contracts would not in any event begin on Monday eased the market a little near the close. Final prices were steady at IA cent net advance with May $1.26 5-8.
 Business in provisions was nearly at standstill. The tendency, though appeared to be upward on account of firmness in the value of hogs.
 Subsequently,, rise in hog prices gave a decided lift to provisions.
