Embezzlement Suit by
Powell Evans Against
w. S. Leib in Tax Case

PottSvilIe, Pa, May 3.-Suit was
brought yesterday against County
Commissioner w. S. Leib, charging
him with embezzling funds given by
Powell Evans, of Philadelphia, 10
pay State taxes on SchuyllSill Elec-
trio Railway. The original deficiency,
$4,000, was reduced to $4,000 by
payments by Leib last week when
suit was threatened.
Leib's attorneys say securities were
deposited with Evans to cover the
entire amount, but this has not pre-
vented action. 1t was on this trans
action that it is alleged the name or
John Fertig, former Pottsville law
yer, now a departmental chief at
was forged. Bail was
fixed at $4,000.
The suit was brought before AL
derman McCool, Of this city, who
denied knowledge of the case. The
suit follows action by Attorney Gen
eral Schaffer, charging eibL with
forgery.
Leib's arrest followed ten days
strenuous efforts to locate him by
writ servers, according to Powell
Evans, who last night said the in
ability of the officers finally aroused
suspicion that their search was not
very exhaustive. Finally dispairing
of serving the warrant, Thomas Rey-
burn White. of Philadelphia, coun-
sci, and James D. Evans, vice-presi-
dent of the Schuylkill Electric Com
pany, journeyed to Pottsville and
personally served the warrant. Mr..
White last night promised a state
ment to-day covering the charges
against Leib in detail.

can governments"
Naming about dozen steamship
lines that are already operating
from American to German ports, the
article adds:
"a study of the ships being
operated to Germany by the lines
named shows that they are sailing
under many flags. Some of the
vessels are the property of the
United States Shipping Board and
were among those built to overcome
the menace of the German U-boats.
Others are privately owned under
the American flag, and the others
include ships Of Swedish, Norwegian,
Spanish and even Japanese registry.
BY far the greater part. however,
are Shipping Board vessels.
"There is no belief, however, in
shipping circles that all Of the lines
enumerated, or even any stable pro-
portion Of them, are working in the
interests Of Germany"

One Oysters Breakfast

"THE London Daily Mail" tells
l. the story Of a fish merchant,
John Symonds, Of Marine Parade,
Great Yarmouth, who on opening his
premises one morning recently
found that an oyster had trapped
and killed a fair sized mouse:
1.-THE oyster was on the top Of a
large hamper. The mouse had ap-
parently touched the oyster, which,
closing instantly, squeezed the naouse's
head and neck quite fat. When Mr..
Symonds took up the oyster, the mouse
dropped out.
"By touching the shells of several!
live oysters, he yesterday showed how
they close. The oyster with wide open
she'll. he said, is dead, and has no
power to close. While the oyster is
alive, it can bring together it's shells
quickly enough to catch anythir " try

Great Britain lost nearly twice

There were sixty-nine years Of
wax among the various nations in
the 1T years prior to 1910.
"As nearly as can be learned,
5,098,097 men lost their lives in
those wars.
"That would mean 1885 lives lost
year, or about 200 day.
"In the late war there were 200

production to replace the vessels
sunk in her illegal sea warfare, there
are those who believe she is planning
to become the owner of an amount
estimated at, at least, 100000 gross
tons. None of this tonnage flies
the German flag; it is problematical
when it will do 50, but it is pointed
out that this is a mere matter of
detail if the vessels are to be oper-
ated by or in behalf of Hamburg
and Bremen capital"
In England, "The Rudder" points
out, the charge Of German penetra-
ton has been made in it's most I'M
qualified form. In a recent issue
"The Syren and Shipping," of Lon
don, states:
THE secret German feet is over
100000 tons, and to-day it flies the
American flag. AS regards vessels
transferred during the war to neu-
trails, these transfers have not been
recognized, and some of the ships
have already been handed over. AS
regards shipbuilding enterprises, it
is true that Germany acquired or
started dozen or so neutral yards,
but in every case the German inter-
est was forced out and in some cases
the yards were shut up. The only
doubtful yards left are in the United
States"
"That Germany has a secret feet
of 100000 tons that to-day flies the
American flag is much more
sweeping estimate than any that
has yet been made in this country"
says "The Rudder." cit even ex-
ceeds the total tonnage of all the
vessels now operating from Ameri-
can to German ports, and by no
means all Of these are under Ameri-
can registry. And Of those that are,
the bulk are the property of the
United States Shipping Board. Is
it to be assumed rom the statement
of the British publication that Ger
many controls the tonnage, or any

Wagir'g The Fight
On Lady Nicotine

OF the most popular slogans raised at
all the relief meetings. But if the drive
against tobacco is now on as a post
war campaign there is nothing like
having it out in the open with the
issue frankly joined"
"The New York World" which
fought prohibition from the start of
the agitation, even in this early
stage CT the nationwide canapaign
against Lady Nicotine regards the
issue as serious enough to imperil
the tobacco user. Says this paper:
THAT tobacco would next receive
the attentions of the forces of right
eousness was to be expected. once
alcohol had been put under ban. Is
not tobacco the twin evil Of self-in-
dulgence? Yet it is disconcerting to
have the day of its Punishment fixed
and advertised in advance. On March
70, 1924, occurs the fiftieth anniversary
OF the Woman's Christian Temperanco
Union, and what more appropriate Gel
ebration Of the jubilee could be de-
vlsed than to make it the occasion for
demanding that Congress submit to
the states constitutional amendment
prohibiting the growing, manufacture,
sale and use Of tobacco?
School children now recite pieces
against the filthy weed extracted from
". c. T. U. pamphlets, ana one choice
selection, entitled Not Fit To Be
Kissed contains the verse:
~ want to kiss papa, love him 80
we'll,
But kisses don't taste good which have
such q smell.
It's nasty to smoke and eat 'bacco and
spit,
And the kisses amt good and amt
sweet, not Bit
Can the most hardened smoker re-
main proof against. this rebuke? Little
Robert Reed never brought such an
Indictment against tobacco. He mere
ly recited that it fouls the mouth and
soils the clothes And makes a chimney
Of the nose
But campaign engineered by the

cooperation OF the Anti-Saloon League
and insidiously introduced in the

There were nineteen major wars
fought in the world in the III years
from 1893 to 1910. The late war
cost so per cent moro in lives and
lost 700 per cent moro in money
spent than the whole nineteen other
wars put together.
"The most costly in lives of the
previous wars was that between
England and France, l793-1S15, a
total of 100000 men having per-

next came the war Of 1896,
IN which England, France, Sardinia,
Turkey, Austria and Russia fought;
609,797 men were killed.
"The more recent war between
Russia and Japan came third, claim

"1n our own War Of the Rebellion
both sides together lost 494, 400
men, ranking fourth in loss of life
in the great wars previous to the
late one.

and Germany, so disastrous to
France and which played very i'm
