he obtained, and was sent to Camp Kearny. Testimony at this point showed, as was known, that Smiths first sentence of three years was cut in half. Mason was acquitted, but was convicted afterward of perjury in his first trial.
 The question where there was ade- quate protection for the enlisted man in case of complaints was taken up. Colonel Ansel and MT. Johnson took the ground that if man made a complaint which was not adjusted he remained still under the same of ficers against whom he had com plained, and this was not fair situa- tion.

 Certain SufTragists visited Jefferson City to urge the ratification of the Susan B.

 General Kreger's report said that at the time First Lieutenant Arthur J. Gagnon, Mexican Corps, 15Sth In fantry, and Second Lieutenant VII liam T. Sullivan, of the same com mand, were under charges regarding conduct toward prisoners in detention
 camps, but no record of their trial had been received.
 Specifications in the case of Ser
 geant Bush show among other things that he was accused of striking about twenty different prisoners in the face.
 The reviewing authority said Of prison farm No that testimony was introduced showing the conditions at the farm as terrible. There were as many as 1,200 men there, while there was only billeting for 45O. It was also said that the morale of the prison was very low, due to the muddy con- dition of the camp.
 Sergeant Joseph Smith. who was acquitted, was charged with striking prisoners with a loaded blackjack, and also in the face with his fist, and telling a corporal to beat up" a pris- oner.
 After the documens had been read into the record, Representative John son asked General March if the Chief ] of Staff could approve a court-mar- | tial system by which responsible off, cers were let off with light sentences or acquitted, while a sergeant re- ceived heavy penalties
 | General March replied that the Ser geant had received but six months and the reviewing authorities did not | consider this sufficient.
 Would you not say that some one l in command of the lieutenants and l sergeants was responsible ?" asked | MT. Johnson.

DANISH CATARRH.
Breathe Hyomei for Two Minutes and Re.
lieve Stuffed lip Head.

If you want to get relief from catarrh,
cold in the head or from any irritating
cough in the shortest time breathe Hyo-
mel.
1t should clean out your head and open
up your nose in two minutes and allow
you to breathe freely.
Hyomei often ends cold in one day,
and brings quick relief from snuffles,
hard crusts in the nose, hawking, spit
ting and catarrhal mucus.
Hyomei is made chiefly from a sootb-
ing, healing antiseptic oil, that comes
from the eucalyptus forests of inland
Australia, where Catarrh, Asthma, 3ron-
chitis, Tonsjlits, Influenza, Pneumonia
and Consumption were never known to
exist.
Hyomei is pleasant and easy to breathe
Just pour few drops into the hard rub
Der inhaler, use as directed and relief is
almost certain.
A complete Hyomei outfit including
inhaler and one bottle Of Hyome, costs
but little-at A. A. HoWes & Co.'S and

own an inhaler you can buy an extra bot
tie of Hyomei at druggists.

Experiences OF Submarine

Joe W. White of the Royal Naval Re

one method of submarine hunting which
was adopted during the wal. The North
channel was set out in sections. each
divided INTO number of SQUARES and
each square numbered. All the patrol
vessels were fitted out with hvdrophones
OF various types-some had as MANY as
four different types
On squares one to SIX trawlers would
patrol, on squares seven to twelve a sec
ton would use hydrophoues, and so on,
one section patrolling and one section
using the hydrophone, and each ship
working on her own allotted square.
Now, If vessel on square fifty-fou

once wireless message would be sent

sells, and also headquarters.
The vessel that had heard the sound of
the submarine would signal to the next
two vessels, the one on his staTboard and
the one on his port side. If neither of
these had heard the submarine they would
close in on the one who had until one or
the other picked up the sound, and from
that they would sometimes be able to de
fire the course the submarine was steer
ing and send out the warning again 10
the other vessels.
Then the senior officer CT the three
ships who had picked up the sound would

A UNIQUE STRIKE

A unique sort of strike is reported in
the Worlds Work as occurring at Troy,
N. Y. Not long ago electricians a5ked
for IS cents an hour. Some contra tors
refused to pay it and the electricians
struck. They were too busy on WORT for
other contractors who had acceded to
the new scale to spare any members of
their union for picketing, SO they en-
ployed number of non-electricians as
pickets at so cents an hour. When these
pickets discovered tie objects Of the elec-
tricians' strike they decided that they,
too, were underpaid, organized themselves
and struck for more pay. They got it,
while the electricians eventually Won

manufacturing furniture for the ref

newspaper states that "a request by the

feel she is called upon to extend any

not in force.
