CORP ORAL SMITH
DIES IN ARMY?
WORD Received
Father, III. c. Smith of Woodmen
Office, Gets Letter Merely Stat
ing Son Had Died.

Word has been received by H.
c. Smith, 314 Ninth street, that his
son, Corporal Sterling C. Smith,
81 years. is dead. Just where the
death occurred is not known, as
two conflicting stories have been
received by Mr.. Smith One letter
received from Miss Helen Ira
Wis" presumably a trained nurse,
conveyed the information that
Corporal Smith had died while in
hospital in England. The nurse
said that she had been informed
of the death through friend, a.
soldier, who had been a patient in
the hospital which Corporal Smith
was in. No particulars as to the
cause of death were contained in
the letter.
Mr.. Smith Immediately wired the
nurse in an eastern camp and re-
ceived the word from hospital To-
Gated in Pittsburgh, Pa. to the eff
fected that the letter was correct
and that Corporal Smith was dead.
Where he died was not made plain,
however, and the wire message in
tIuldtCu LIldI NOi POl al AJAlI4LAl A1ElA
died in Pittsburgh. Mr.. Smith still
holds the hope that there is a mis-
take somewhere and that his son is
still living. ~
Last Word May 3.
The last word that Mr. Smith
received from his son was on May
8. and then he received a post card
from Dublin, telling of his expect
ed early return.
A previous letter from Corporal
Smith was dated April 90, and he
was in England at that time,
Was Volunteer.
Corporal Sterling C. Smith was
born in this city Il years ago and
received his education in the
schools of this city. April. 1917,
he enlisted in the Canadian Over
seas Battalion and was assigned
to the Twenty-first regiment. He
had seen much action and had been
wounded while at the front. A
brother, Lieutenant H. c. Smith,
recently returned from overseas
duty, is now at Camp Custer await
ing his discharge.

COURT ORDERS
DISPOSINC OF
LIQUOR STOCK
Federal Judge Holds Owners May
Have Reasonable Time To
Claim the Booze.
Especial to The Argus.l

Peoria, Ill, May 10. - Judge
Louis FitzHenry in the federal
court here today issued an order
for disposal of the immense guam
tity of liquor stored in govern
ment building in Rock Island -
The beer. wines and whisky con-
fiscated in federal raids is to be
given to the Red Cross, following
a reasonable time given to former
owners to call for the liquor and
claim it.
Notice to former owners of the
liquor is to be published three
times in The Argus. Suggestion of
the United States attorney general
that the liquor be sold at public
auction was held impraeticable.
The liquor stock of William
Spelter, former saloonkeeper,
seized by mistake while stored In
the barn of J. J. Mandel, is ordered
returned to the owner. Mandel
sometime ago pleaded guilty to
carrying liquor into the arsenal.

BIRDS DO NOT MAKE BIRDS
EYE MAPLE,

What makes the bird s-eye maple?
That Is a question which you have
asked yourself when you looked at
a BEAUTIFUL piece of furniture made
Of this wood, says the American
Forestry Association, of Washing
ton, d. c., which is campaigning for
the planting of memorial trees.
There have been number OF
theories but the real reason is
simple.
Tho favorite theory has been that
sapsuckers, by pecking holes
through the bark of young naples,
make scars which produce the
birds eye figure in the wood during
succeeding years. Bird-pecked hick-
DRY is often cited as an analogous
case, yet who ever saw birds eye
figure in hickory, though the bark
may have been perforated like
collender by the bills of energetic
sapsuckers? The effect in the case
of hickory Is the opposite of birds
eye in maple; the wood is discolor-
ed and unsightly. Some attribute 1t
to the action of frost but no such
connection betwee cause and eff
feet has been shown to exist.
The explanation of the phenom-
enon is simple, and a person with
good magnifying glass can work it
out for himself The birds eye
figure is produced by casual or aD-
normal buds which have their or
igin under the bark of the tree. The
first buds of that kind may develop
when the tree is quite small. They
are rarely able to force their way
through the bark and become
