Government Forces in WiIheImstrasse Are Expect
ing Attack Momentarily; All Berlin Is in State
Of Chaos, Pending Revolutionary Attempt to
Overthrow Present Government II
BOTH COMBATANSrTESS SEEM TO BE
EQUIPPED WITH MACHINE GUNS
Government Sends Out an Appeal to all Councils
Of Soldiers and Workmen Throughout Ger
many to Rally to Their Support; Fire Of Ma
chine Guns Heard Early in Morning

Berlin, Jan. 8-(By the Associated Press)-At this hour
Spartacan forces are being massed at several places where
weapons and armored motor cars have been concentrated. In
Wilhemstrasse, the government forces are awaiting an attack.
Government troops have been posted on top Of the Bran
denburg gate and adjoining buildings with machine guns. The
troops in the government buildings have been equipped with
flame throwers.
Shortly before noon the Associated Press correspondent
saw a troop of about 80 Spartacans, half soldiers and half civil
ians all armed and having with them one machine gun, march
through the Potsdammer place towards the Bolsheyiki gath
ering place.
The Spartacans are reported to be conducting operations
at various places on the outskirts of the old city, including the
Anhalter and Siesian railway stations. They captured the
barracks of the pioneer regiment in Kopenickerstrasse during
the night, and there was other fighting in which fifteen persons
are reported to have been killed.
Machine gun fire was heard at 10 O'Clock this morning
from the lower end Of the Wilhelmstrasse, where the SPARTA
cans have attempted to cross the canal with armed forces. Dr..
~Ilebknecht and his followers have complete possession Of p-
lice headquarters and Of the section around the royal palace
Meanwhile the government is sitting tight at the Wilhelm
stfssse, awaiting the expected attack.
The government buildings are strongly garrisoned while
the buildings along the street bristle with machine guns.
The government has issued an appeal to all the soldiers
and workmens councils in Germany for their support. 1t de-
clares the central executive committee armed the government
with extraordinary and plenary powers and that the govern
ment has firmly decided to employ all the force necessary to
establish order.
The correspondent learns that Premier Ebert held out for
a long time against the use Of force, declaring that among the
people the government was supported by SO great a majority
as to render the use Of force necessary.
He was finally convinced, however, that another way
would have to be chosen to put down Boshevism in Germany

Washington, jan S.-Congress and
not the president, should determine
when the railroads are to be turned
back to private management, said
interstate commerce commissioner
Edgar 3. Clark today, continuing his
testimony before the senate inter
state commerce commission at the
hearing on railroad legislation.
Yesterday he submitted a state
ment from the commission recon-
mending private operation of the car
riers under strieter government sup
ervision.
ITO state it blhntly," said Mr..
Clark, II think congress ought to
withdraw from the president the pow
er to turn back the roads on an
hours notice and congress itself
ought to determine when this shall

Private operation replied Mr..
Clark.

sioner.
Senator Cummins stated that a
resolution would be introduced shortly
which would have the effect Of pre-
venting the President from relinduish-
ing railroads from federal control
without giving congress an opportun.
ity to consider remedial legislation.
Under questioning, Mr.. Clark ex-
planned that the interstate commerce
commission had assumed the Prest
dent had power during the war to BUS
pend state rates under federal control
but the commission had not attempted
to define the precise source Of this
authority. He assented to Senator
Cummins' suggestion that the. govern
ment deficit arising out Of manage
ment Of railroads during abnormal
war conditions should be paid out OF
the treasury rather than from the

HOW TO TRAP SUCCESSFULLY
Two Ways Of Taking the Wary Mink
Snare Into Which "Brer Fox"
May Fall.

IF mink makes a hole through q
snowdrift he will use it again and a
nap set in it will catch him.
After cold weather sets in, when
setting in shallow water for mink
choose a place where the current runs
swiftly and is not likely to freeze up.
When trapping foxes use a No. .
double spring trap. This style of trap
is known as "the fox trap"
If you wish to be real foxy and
cunning yourself, try setting three
traps, one in an old path without any
covering, and one on each side, skill
fully covered The fox will give all
his attention to the uncovered trap
and by going around it may step into
one of those on the side.
1t is not much use to try to trap
foxes or any other such wary animal
without good scent.
An ear of corn stuck in the mud
near a trap makes an excellent bait
for coon.
One of the best places to look for
coon signs is in a corntield.

WANTED-H[RLSi

There is something that is getting to
be awfully scarce in this world. Shall
| tell you what it is? 1t is girls, Than
is what is missing outof the sentimental
breathing, living world just now We
have lots Of young ladies, and lots of so
iety misses, but the sweet, old.fashion.
ed girls of ever so long ago are vanished
with the pokebonnets and cinnamon
cookies.
We want home girls-girls who are
mothers right hand; girls who can cud-
die the little ones next best to mamma
and smooth out the tangles from the
domestic skein when things get twisted:
girls whom father takes comfort in for
something better than beauty, and the
big brothers are proud OF for something
that outranks the ability to dance or
shine In society Next, we want girls
of sense-girls who have a standard of
their own regardless OF conventional
ties, and are independent enough to live
up to it; girls who will wear what is
pretty and becoming and snap their fin
gers at the dictates of fashion when IA.
shion is horrid and silly; girls who will
not smoke or drink, or accept hospit-
atty from chance acquaintances.
And we want good girls-girls who
are sweet, right, straight out from the
heart to the lips; innocent and pure and
simple girls, with less knowledge OF sin
and duplicity and evil doing at 20 than
the pert little schoolgirl at 10 has all too
often; girls who say their prayers and
love God and keep His commandments.

Marie,s American Anthem

In far away France little Marie,
aged six, visited the Red Cross hos
pital near her home every day, and
became very popular with the conva-
descent American soldiers there. She
soon became very good friends with
the soldiers and they delighted to
teach her scraps of English. When
they sang she joined them in their
American songs. one day, in Marle's
school, teacher asked her class the
title of Americas national anthem.
The class looked blank, until Marie,
with a flash of inspiration, jumped to
her feet and announced, Hail HALL
the Gangs All Here" In quaint, rolling
English.

ACID TEST OF CHARACTER.

at is said that you must live with
people before you really come to know
them. Perhaps it is an even surer test
to have money dealings with them
The pocket book is like sensitive
nerve; touch ii and you will soon dis
cover whether the owner is unseifsh
or otherwise. Cash is an acid test OF
character" says David McConaughy in
"Money the Acid Test For in the
disposing of money no less than in the
making of it is the real man revealed
AS DR.. Theodore L, Cuyler used to
say, What young man earns in the
day time goes into his pocket; but what
he spends in the evening goes into his
character The spender then, may
discover what manner of man he is by
seeing for what his money is spent"
