Paris, March 15.-A subCommis-
sion of the commission on RESPONSE
bility for the war reported yesterday
that, strictly and technically, GRIM

brought about the struggle were

chinery to deal with those who plan
ned the war"
The subcommission received evil
dence which clearly analyZed the
facts relative to the origin of the
conflict, it was stated.
Another subcommission which has
dealt with violations of the laws and
customs of war also submitted it's

of its criminal jurisdiction, be
blocked by considerations OF rank
The commission, it was ANNOUNCE
ed, is considering these reports.

BUCCANEERS.

The first act in the long and bloody drama played by the buccaneers of the Spanish Main was staged at Tortuga PSI years ago today, when the Spaniards massacred all the set tiers they could find on that island. Tortuga was then the headquarters of the buccaneers, who were at that time sea traders and smugglers rath- CT than sea robbers. About 300 of the buccaneers were absent from the island at the time of the slaughter, and when they returned and found their comrades butchered. they rais- ed the black flag and declared war on Spain and the Spaniards. Driven from Tortusa, the buccaneers found refuge in Jamaica. and from that time they constituted a mercenary navy, ready for employment against Spain by any other nation, on condi- tion of sharing the loot obtained from Spanish ships. France and Eng land employed the buccaneers at yari- ous times, and they also acted inde- pendently against Spain. In the course of time the profession of buc- cancer was fi'owned upon, and the sea rovers turned pirates, preying 6r the commerce of all nations. Spair paid dearly for the massacre at Tor. tuga-

GERMAN TONGUE
 WILL DISAPPEAR

Milwaukee, Wis, Jan. z4. - The teaching of the German language in Milwaukee grade schools may dis appear entirely when the new se- mester begins in February. In only one school in the city now Is German being taught, and, under the reso- lution of the school board abolish ing foreign language instruction, 1t would be discontinued at the end of the term in June.
 In 1916, 200 teachers were em- pioyed to give instruction in the Ger man language to 3O,000 pupils and at the end of 1918, only one teacher was employed to instruct 400 pupils in the German language.
 One of the final instances in con- nection with the elimination of Ger man instruction came with the recent announcement that Leo Stern, assis. tant superintendent of schools 1T charge of foreign language depart. ment, had resigned. The school board last August voted to abolish the for eign language department, at the ent Of the present year. MT. Stern's term expires June 30. MT. Stern in hi. letter to the school board said tha-

EVEN GROSS, SICK CHILDREN LOVE
 SYRUP OF FIGS
If feverish, bilious, consti, pated, give fruit laxative
 at once.

Don't scold your fretful, peevish child. See if tongue is coated; this is a sure sign It's little stoE-ach, liver and bowels are clogged with sour waste.
 When listless, pale, feverish, full of cold, breath bad, throat sore, doesn't eat, sleep or act naturally, has stom- ach-ache, indigestion. diarrhoea, give 8 teaspoonful of California Syrup of Figs and in a few hours all the foul waste. the sour bile and fermenting food passes out of the bowels and you have a well and playful child again. Children love this harmless fruit lax ative,' and mothers can rest easy af- ter giving it, because it never fails to make their little "insides" clean and sweet.
 Keep, it handy, Mother! A little given today saves a sick child tomor- row, but get the genuine. Ask your druggist for a bottle of Cali Eornia Syrup of Figs" which has di- rections for babies, children of all ages and for groWn-ups plainly on the bot i tie. Remember there are counter feits sold here, so surely look and see that yours is made by the California 1 Fig Syrup Company" Hand back with ! contempt any other fig syrup.-Adv.

 Leases are being sold for a few acres at vastly larger sums than en tire farms would have brought { year ago and enormous invest1nent have been made.
