FIDDLE WHILE ROME BURNS

Some persons saw, or thought
they saw, signs of great religious
awakening as a consequence OF the
war. They thought the depths Of
the soul of man had been sounded
by the horrors and the agon:es OF
the years of unparalleled tragedy.
The only reflection of such feel
ing in evidence today is voiced in
certain poems. Instead of q true
spirit of thanksgiving there is a riot
of waste, careless living, extrava-
gance and hectic frivoling.
Germany, on the brink of an abyss
of debt and privation, which means,
perhaps, century of tribulation
and tribute, dances. While states
men study what it is possible for
Germany to pay, we hear of Ger
man gambling in the streets at day
and prancing about the floors OF
beer halls at night, despite riot and
civil warfare in many German cit
les by day and by night.
Great Britain, it is said, is not far
from bankruptcy. To the tremen-
dous costs of the war the present
disorganization of British industry
is added. Today there are more
than 100000 persons idle in the
British Isles.
The industrial prostration England
knew at the time of our Civil War
owing to being cut off from much Of
Americas raw material was trivia!
to what England knows today. yet
London never was so gay super
ficially. AS in Berlin, there is
craze for dancing In the great
town houses it has become the Gus
tom to have dancing parties night
after night with supper or break
fast at 5 A. NJ, to mark the closing
of the festivities. And yet in India,
the largest dependency of the Brit
ish Empire, there RACES one of the
greatest famines in history, and
there is rebellion in Egypt and near
rebellion constant in ireland.
In America there is extravaganza
unprecedented. The trade in jewelry
in the four months of December.
January. February and March is said
to exceed any twelve months on
record. There is I. barbaric demand
for diamonds, rubies, pearls and
such things. So, too, with fine furs.

Paris, May 6.-The Imaginary in

French was the prdtext for the decIa-
raticn of war ON France, says Gottlelb

Minister, in book which he has just

ported to tnc German s+afs by subor-

the staff communicated the informa-
tion to, the Government without at
tempting to ascertain the facts.
The former Foreign Minister Sc

VILLA AGAIN A MENACE
Rebel. Leader Threatens Entire
Northern Mexico

vi
Washington, May 6.-The situa-
ton in northern Mexico again is re-
fected as serious, in adyices received
here from Mexico City and the Dor
der. The State Department has
been advised that 5000 employees Of
an American mining company at
Santa Eplalia have been removed to
chihuahua City because of threats
by Villa, the bandit leader.
In the capture Of Parral, the entire
Carranza garrison went over to the
Villa forces which now threaten Chi
huahua City. Americans in the
state capital are reported to be en-
deavoring to OBTAIN passage to ri
Paso, as they believe the garrison
will join the Villistas in the even tan
attack is made on the city.
Torreon is said to be Villas next
objection and it is the belief here
the capture Of the city would clear
his road to the south. Reports from
the border say the Conchos bridge at
Ortiz, south of chihuahua City. has
been destroyed by the rebels, thus
closing the road for reinforcements
moving northward.

Chicago, May 6.-An advance OF
twenty per cent in bread prices IN
Chicago became effective last week.
Master bakers said the instance was
made necessary by higher cost OF
labor and materials. Some retailers
charged bakers had combined to boost
prices and said they would ask an IN
veatigation.
Frank Feick, commissioner of the
department of labor, who has been
investigating the bakers strike here
was said to have gone to Washington
to submit his report. Bakers, in some
larger shops are still On strike with
no prospect of an agreement being
reached.

Under no condition should fly

he evades your murderous efforts,
take five cents worth of the oil OF
lavender, mix it with the same guam
tity of water, put in common
glass atomizer and spray the rooms
where the flies are. This odor IS
very disagreeable to the flies but is
not unpleasant to persons.
Geranium, mignonette, heliotrope
and white clover also are offensive
to flies, while they particularly dis
like the fragrance of honeysuckle
and hop blossoms. Keep these love
~ fly preventives around your
house while you can, and there will
be no reason to bother killing them
According to French scientist,
flies have an intense hatred for the
color blue and rooms so decorated
will keep out these pests.

MUST PAY COST OF PEACE

Alexandria, so far, has subscribed
about one-half of her allotment OF
the Victory Loan. We had hopeu
to go over the top, and this may YET
be accomplished.
The Victory Bonds have been VIZ
tuallv placed within the means OF
the great bulk of the people. A man
or woman with small capital and
limited income can have part IN
this patriotic movement with but
little, if any, inconvenience. Fifty
dollar bonds can be secured by pay
ing five dollars a month. Hence
there is no excuse, as but re" can
sincerely plead that they cannot
meet such an obligation.
In the good old days of the Israel
itish thcocracy all were given an OPP
portunity to enter into the public
recognition of the Creator. The rich
could offer bullocks, but the poor
could bring two turtle doves or
young pigeons, or handful of
flour.
Victory Bonds are Within the reach
of all if they desire to avail them
selves of the opportunity Of secur-
ing the same.
While Alexandrians have not been
as quick to buy Victory Bonds as
they were to secure Liberty Bonas
while the war was in progress ours
is not the only city where apathy
is IN evidence. Let us shake our
selves and rally to the supporter
our government who needs aid IN

House Clerk Tells of Time lie
Tried TO Give Room TO Bill
PaitersOn's Elcphant

The old Putnam House, Twenty sixth
Street and Fourth Avenue, closed us
doors last night after more than hity
years. The building, a five-story brick,
will be entirely renovated at cost OF
$4,000, by September Is, and reopened
as a restaurant. Sam Glantz, VINO has
managed the hotel under the name Of
the Hotel Preston, made this announce
ment last night.
The Putnam House has been known
to New Workers for many years as
stopping place of circus and theatrical
stars performing at Madison square
Garden. 1t enjoyed the reputation OF
having one Of the best bars in the
city at one time.
Jack Frost, who has been the house
clerk for many years, last night told
the story of the time Bill Patterson,
who had charge of the wild animals
for Barnum & Bailey, asked for a
room for himself and pet elephant.
LET me have two rooms" said Pat
terson. 81 have my elephant with me
and really | can't afford to let HIM out
in the cold. He must have a place to
sleep"
AS Frost tells the story, Patterson
so impressed him, that, just to please,
Patterson being one of the best Gus
toners at the Putnam bar. he sent for
n block and falls to draw the elephant
up TO room Is, on the second floor.
THE fellow | sent after the block
and falls" said Frost, 81 think is on
the run yet. | guess he thought we
had all gone crazy"
