treaty now is absolutely certain" the
Berlin Gazette said today, the entente
cannot refuse to take into account the
ministerial crisis and grant a delay,
as 1t is impossible to sign before the

Paris, June 21.-Rapid political de-

to result in formal announcement to-
day that Germany will sign the peace
treaty, more than two days ahead OF
expiration Of the time limit.
A new cabinet, replacing the fallen
Scheidemann ministry, was believed
here to have been formed overnight.
This body, supposedly pledged to ac-
ceptance of the terms, was expected to
communicate its decision to the Ma
tional Assembly today for ratification.
In spite of the optimism in peace
circles here, allied military and naval
authorities continued preparations for
possible resumption Of hostilities. The
British fleet was reported to be ready
to swoop down upon the German coast.
Marshal Ferdinand Foch, General
Tasker Bliss, General w. E. Robertson
and General Cavelere went over the
military plans with the Big Four last
night. Foch's plans were said to have

SPEEDY ACTION
 IN MURDERERS OF POLICEMEN

Wilmington, Del, Nov. 1.-The customary quiet prevailed in Whining ton this morning, the excitement incl dent to the murder of Policeman Zeb- ley and wounding of Policeman Pierce by Lemuel Price, negro, yes terday, having subsided. The fact that Price and his two accompices, John and James Price, his brothers, had been taken to Philadelphia for greater security, removed the direct object of the peoples wrath and the agitation was further stilled by the proba bility of a speedy administration of ustice.
 Today Attorney General Rhinehardt will ask the court of general sessions to call special session of the grand Jury, which concluded it's regular ses- sion last week, for next Monday. Then, in the event of the indictment of Lemuel Price and his accomplice, he will ask for a special session of tha Oyer and Terminer Court for an inn mediate trial. All this may take place during the coming week.
 Evidence has been secured that shows three negroes were concerned in numerous burglaries and thefts in this city recently.

SEN ATE .ADJOURNS IN HONOR OF
 SENATOR MARTIN

Washington, Nov. 1.-The foreign relations committee reservation to Ar ticle Ten of the League of Nations covenant stood today in the Senate as a part of the pact in face of Presi- dent Wilson's declaration that it would cut the heart out of the coven- ant.
 The reservation, which has caused exhaustive debate in the senate, was adopted late yesterday by vote of 46 to 33, in the exact form in which it came from the committee. Four Democrats oined the Republicans in voting to adopt the reservation while the opposition was composed entirely of Democrats.
 The reservation provides that the United States shall assume no obliga- tions to preserve the territorial integ- rity or political independence of any other country or to interfere in con- troversies between nations. The senate was adjourned today because of the funeral of Senator Martin at Charlottesville, Va.

Uses, perhaps in an adjacent apartment,
there may be someone who has gone
to sleep without going into the silence.
This interfereS materially with the
working Of all anti-insomnia devices.
If there is no neighboring obstacle of
this sort it is a much easier matter.
And yet, even after the silence is ar
ranged, the mind is apt to go on pro-
viding its own disturbance. Arithmet-
ical and alphabetical diversions only
accentuate the tumult. The only thing
to do is to regard the very center of
the mind as a Hypothetical hole, or vac
uum, contract the mind until 1t is all
pulled into this hole, and then pull the
hole In after it. And there you are.
OF course if there is certain degree
of reality in this imagined condition,
one does not have to exercise the n.y.
pothesis, and that makes ii so much
easier.-F. H. Young in Providence

MEMoRY'S 10Y AND SORROW
To the Properly Balanced Mind the
Scales Will BE Found About
Evenly Arranged.

1t is remembrance that makes us
human, remembrance that gives ns
present immortality. without memory
there could be no progress, no ad-
vancing from low places to ths
heights; for It Is memory that brings
the past to us, and gives us a certain
immunity from the burdens Of the
passing moment.
Not In childhood. perhaps, but at all
other times memory is the mother of
hope. 1t may be true, as Dante said
and TennysOn echoed, that sorrnwIs
worst sorrow IL to remember a hap
pier time; bpt against this we have
to weigh the ,iiiimbarless Joys that men,
DRY confeFs, the lessons It teaches US,
the strengthen sgiyessns and the CO.
herencs. the sense Of completeness that
it gives to our lives.
1t is not well to live IN memory only,
unless In old age. when remembrance
may be the best treasure left to US.
We can easily become morbid and
weak by too continual a dwelling in
the past: the present and the future
both have their lnsIstent claims. But
any sane person knows that the abuse
Of good may always turn 1t into an
evil, and remembrance can be no ex-
ception to this law.

is a child who cannot grow up. He
has no sense of commercial values and
no liking for toll. The white man
found him Wretched worker and al
most unusable on the plantations that
were laid out In the islands.
That is the reason why the HindOO
coolie has been imported into Fiji and
why the Fijian is disappearing. The
native cannot stand the double strain
of softened ways of living and of COM
peting with the hardened native
of India.
One notes as a significant phase Of
the Europeans attitude toward the
changing conditions in Fiji, the recon-
mendations adopted at a recent meet
ing of the district synod, Methodist
mission of Fiji. These recommends
tons approved the further COLOMBIA
ton of the islands by HindOos and
suggested a number of regulations
which would better the situation of
these imported orientals. The i'm
pCrtation of women from India was
recommended, as 1t was stated that
women were disproportionately few in
the Fiji islands.
There has been some intermarriage
between the Fills and the HindOOs.
That, too, has helped bring about the
passing of the Fijian. Samoans also
have gone to Fiji in considerable num-
bers and have thrived there.

DAY over
Picturesque South Sea Islander
Is Disappearing.
Advent of the White Man, With His
Civilization and His Business
Ideas Too Much for Once
Dreaded Savage.

The Fiji islander, whose cannibal-
istic practices long made him a favor
lite with writer's Of fiction and humor,
is following the Malayan pirates and
the rowing pearl thief Of the South
seas into the realm of memory. A
turbaned half-caste Hindoo is replac-
ing the once bloodthirsty and always
picturesque native of the Fills.
1t is the white mans civilization,
along with the white mans vices, and
the Fijian's utter dissemination to
work that are blotting out the race.
The Fijian of today is no longer war
like, no longer a hunter and fisher
man. Instead he is lazy smoker Of
the white mans tobacco, a'lover Of the
white mans enlivening drinks and a
patron of the white mans moving pic
ture shows.
Time was when the war canoes Of
the Fits piled the Southern seas
when the Fijian warrior was a dread
ed person who displayed no fear in
battle and who enjoyed eating his slain
enemies once the conflict ended.
The Fijians, according to the early
travellers who came in contact with
them, were superlatively bad. The
very name Fiji became a synonym for
whatever was barbarous, inhuman and
cannibalistic. 1t seems that the eat
ing of human flesh was both a mat
ter of religious rite and of enjoyment
with the Fijian. Great feasts of this
sort were prepared, especially after q
successful battle.
The bad reputation of the Fijians
kept traders and missionaries away
from the islands till long after other
peoples of that section of the seas
were Christianized. Finally the white
man got a foothold in the islands
Trade of various sorts sprang up, fol

POOR WAY TO woo SLEEP
Man Who Experimental Pronounces
Insomnia "Cure" to Be at Least
of Doubtful Value.

A new cure for insomnia, we read. is
to 'list the first names of all your
friends and acquaintance, taking each
letter of the alphabet in order"
OF course this is only a variant of
the old device of counting imaginary
sheep jumping over wall. Personally
we never found that to work at all
We counted between 1000 and 1900
of these alleged soporitic sheep one
night, and then the alarm clock went
off and it was time to get up, which
we did with groan, headache and
pair of astigmatic eyes.
Making an alphabetical catalogue of
your friends first names is an even
more stimulating and nerve-exciting
process. We would be willing to wager
that no normal persons could get fur
Their than the Ms before being inter-
rupted by the first call for breakfast.
1t is doubtful, at least, If the night con-
the whole list from Alfred to Gorilla.
We should say that this might be the
surest way to Danish sleep altogether.
The best way to WOO slumber, we
have been told, is to go into the ST.
lence, relax all muscles and nerves, and
then in mental way, pull all the edges
of the mind into dead mental center
and fold them in. 1t is hard to say
just how this is done, but it sounds
plausible. Frequently, Of course, there
are some difficulties merely In going
