following walk out of the employees
of five large manufacturing plants.

span, when all apparatus of the Fire
Department was called, the Home
Guard was hurriedly modified and
reserves from five adjoining towns
arrived by automobiles to aid the
Waterbury police.
Not until the City Guard had put
its machine guns in position at the
entrances to all the factories involv-
ed in the strike were the police able
to halt destruction of property and
get the situation in hand. At least
half of the injured strikers are suf
fering from bullet wounds and the
majority Of the others are suffering
from injuries inflicted by police clubs
as the city forces drove the strikers
to their homes with repeated charges.
Soon after o'clock the whistles
throughout Waterbury sounded riot
call and within half an hour traffic in
all central streets was halted as the
fire apparatus and the police reserves
started for Brooklyn. They were
confronted by more than ten thous
and men upon arriving at the fac

scores of the firemen and policemen
were injured in hail of missiles
which greeted them Immediately upon
their arrival. In the meantime the
men overcame the guards protect

President Ebert Asks Socialist Leader Herman
Mueller To Form A New German
Cabinet
ERZBERGER TO HEAD DELEGATION
URGE SPEEDY SIGNING OF TREATY
Several Members of the Old Cabinet Will Remain in
! Office, Among Them Will Be Ministers
ia David and Bell

President Ebert has requested Her
man Mueller, the majority socialist
leader to form a new German cabinet,
according to advices received by Am
erican peace delegation. Matthias Err
berger will probably head the Ger
man Peace delegation. Opposition to
the attitude of democrats and nation
alists concerning treaty probably will
exclude Won Brockdorff- -Rantzau
from government. German provin-
cial press is strongly urging speedy
signing of treaty. Advices summarize
ing situation show sentiment Through
out Germany for signing.
WEIMAR, June 81 (By the Asso-
ciated Press Ebert will
remain in office temporarily, it was
said here today in connection with
the changes the German govern
ment. The portfolio of Matthias Err
berger in the new cabinet to be form
ed will be minister of reconstruc-
tion and fulfllment of the treaty."
The new cabinet will presumably
settle. the question of signing the
treaty. 1t is expected to accept the
allied terms although experts, who
have considered the treaty have unan-
imously rejected it as impossible.
One of them, Fritz Thyssen5 the coal
magnate, said to the Associated
Press:
Germany cannot honestly sign and
hope to fulfil her obligations. It
would be far better to pay larger
indemnity but leave coal and other
economic possibilities of production
by which alone the payment Of the
indemnity is possible"
Several members of the old cabinet
will retain office, among them Eduard
David and Colonial Minister Bell.

FAIRY TALE T /
PINkY'S POLITENESS.
1y Nary Graham Bonner ,.I,

Pinky was feeling quite warm In the
sunshine, as 1t was really the first
warm day OF the season. And the
first warm day of the season always
seems very, very warm as we all
know. Pinky and Glover were two
nice rabbits.
Now Glover had a special place to
lie in when the sun was hot and that
special place was at the side OF her
little home where there was some
shade.
She used to lie there stretched out.
Her eyes would gradually close and
many nap would she take there.
Pinky had gotten up to- look at
something which he thought he could
see If he Jumped to the top of his
home, and then Glover had followed
him, for she wanted to see whatever
he could see.
Glover decided that the top Of the
house would be a nice place for her
to rest, though she first tried the top
of another smaller house which they
had, too, and which their little master
had built for them.
So Glover stayed on top, but 1t was
too warm here for Pinky. He jumped
down and went in the corner where
Glover always stayed
He had fine little nap there and
soon after he had jumped down he
was dreaming of castles made of car
rots and turrets and towers made Of
lettuce and of great courtyards with
clover growing everywhere.
The dreams he had were really ex-
tremely nice. extremely. But after
awhile Glover was too warm ON top
of the house and she decided to come
down. So she jumped down and was
about to lie down next to Pinky when
Pinky jumped up from his place, quite
wide awake.
'Oh," said Glover, 81 am sorry to
have disturbed your Sleep"

show that he meant it was all right he

And that dear, unselfish little rabbit
made Glover take her usual place by
the house while he took his old place
beside her.
They were both so unselfiSh and

their children friends and so fond Of

afraid to tell the truth. He's just
common savage, with lust for blood
the principal part of his makeup"
Eleanors lack of definite knowledge
was easily explainable by the fact that
he lived In Jackson, which was 60
miles from her home city of Kalama-
zoo. He came over every Saturday
night to spend the weekend and she
saw nothing of him on the intervening
days.
Wien he had casually remarked that
he cArked in a store she had taken it
for granted he was telling the truth.
At that time she could conceive of no
reason for his classifying, but now she
could comprehend his evident reluc-
lance to discuss his work.
"That settles 1t" she fumed as she
left the attic with the pink sheet in
her Rand "There won't be any an
uouncement party. He's coming over
tonight, as usual, and I'll meet him at
the station as if nothing had hap
pened; but when l get him up to the
house I'll confront him with the evil
denca of his perfidy."
SO when Albert Gleason stepped off
the interurban car he was greeted with
smiles from the girl of his choice for
she concealed her disgust or abhOr-
renee or whatever her new feeling for
him might be termed, and apparently
was as glad as ever to see him.
To tell the truth, she experienced
some difficulty in keeping that repug-
nance uppermost in her mind; for AL
bert was exceedingly good to look up
on. Broad of shoulder, with arm mus
cles that clothing could not conceal,
and with red, healthy cheeks and Il
head of luXuriant, tOusled, yellow hair

teeth-yes, he was a good-looking spe-
cimen, one that would show off well
in evening dress, at an engagement
party, for instance.

The Pink Sheet
r.
By r. RAY BAKER

tCopyrlght, 1918, by the Mcclure News
paper Syndicate)
One means of wrestling a living from
the world that Eleanor Ferguson abb
horred above all others was prize fight
ing. She had never witnessed any pugi-
listic bouts but She had heard enough
concerning them to form a conclusion
that they were brutal and savage and
that no one who possessed the YES
tige of self-respect could bring himself
to engage In such an encounter.
Consequently, when she found the
man she most admired gazing up at
her serenely from pink sporting page
with the cOgnomen kid Gleason"
stretched above his head the feeling of
disappointment-of well-nigh despair
that swept over her can well be I'M
derStoOd.
Eleanor came across the pink sheet
while rummaging in the attic for some
long-discarded household utensil that
she suddenly felt the need of in prep
aration for the party at which her en-
gagement was to- be announced. The
pink sheet had been used to wrap
something in and she came across it
quite by accident.
ITO announce my engagement" The
Phrase had lost it's pleasant sound.
Now 1t seemed more like the knelling
of q church bell at funeral. And the
pink sheet was to blame for it all. If
only she had stayed away from the
attic she would have continued in
happy frame of mind, she thought. On
the other hand, 1t would have been
much worse to have become the bride
Of the man and then have the knowl-
edge of his means Of livelihood sud-
denly thrust upon her-when 1t was
too late.
"a prize fghter!" she walled, and
she seated herself crosslegged on the
attic floor and buried her head in her
arms and wept. Anything but prize
