TO DEMOLISH OLD PRISON.

Leavenworth, Kan, July D. The passing of the old federal penitentiary at Fort Leavenworth will come this summer, according to Col. Sedgwick Rice, commander of the United Ctates diciplinary barracks. Plans for the rebuilding of the shop and office hous- ing have been completed, which will do way with the structure built in the civil war period.
 The original penitentiary was ab- andoned by the federal authorities when the new prison was constructed some years ago and was taken over by the army to become an institution where offenders against military law could be confined. Later, when the treatment of army offenders was changed, the institution became known as the disciplinary barracks.
 A few years ago, a part of the old prison structure was rebuilt and mod ern cell houses installed. Imprisoned men at the barracks are to be used to carry out the reconstruction.

PEACE HITS JAPAN HARD.

Correspondence of Associated Press.
 Tokio, June 5.-A number of Japa- nese "narikin" or men who have wor great wealth in building or selling steamers during the war, have lost their fortunes owing to the advent of jeace. Some, even, have incurred debts and are in serious difficulties
 Another group of "narikin" how ever, is anticipated. It depends en- tirely upon Germany's resources. If Germany can meet the Allies claims for shipping indemnity some of the Japanese shipping mangnates will re- ceive reperation for vessels they lost in the war. hs
 Thirty-one Japanese vessels, totall- ing 128,417 tons,, were sunk by Ger man submarines during the war, and for this loss an indemnity of $125, ,0O0,- 900 has been demanded from Ger many.

GERMANS SEEKING TO CURRY FAVOR
 WITH IT ALIANS
BuelOw and BernstOrff Inter. views Intended to Regain
 Trade.

l Correspondence of Associated Press) Rome, June 2.-Already German influence has been exercising itself in Italy in an endeavor to win back it's pre-war trade, which annually amounted to nearly two hundred mil lion dollars-exports and imports.
 Interviews have recently been pub- lished in Italian papers which en- deavor to establish the idea in the Italian mind that had Germany been consulted in the matter of Italian claims at the peace conference, Italy would have secured all that had been asked. This has been interpreted by many prominent Italians as purely a subtle bid for Italian patronage an- ticipating the resuscitation of friend ly commercial relations between Italy and Germany.
 Chief among the interviews ap- bearing in Italy were those of Prince Von Buelow and Count Von Bern storff. The former was married to an Italian and maintains in Italy one of the most celebrated villas. Ital- ians contend that it was his object to solicit Italian favor when he said:
 Plume is an Italian town and must go to Italy. All its inhabitants are Italian except small minority. Ev- erything in Plume is Italian. In fact, most Hungarians living in Plume are more favorable to Italian than to Jugo-Slav rule."
 Count Von Bernstorff seeks in his interview, intended for the Italian people, to forgive Italy for allying herself wit hGermany's enemies. He admits that had the ancient German despotic rule won, Italy would have been forgiven but that the new Ger many is ready to forget the past and start over again.
 His interview given to the Giornale d Italia recently has been treated in the same light as that of Prince Won Buelow while Italians are say ing of it, Eve prefer to trust in vic- tory than alternatives"
 Count Belnstorff failed to arouse any great enthusiasm among the Italians for the proffered forgiveness.
 But the Germans have not been asleep in Italy. Already German goods are finding their way into the Italian markets. A Milan newspaper recently announced that large ship ment of German jewelry had been re- ceived at the frontier destined for all parts of Italy. German printing products, tourist guidebooks and sta tionery have been on display in shop windows for weeks. Some of them were pre-war stock but by far the greater part is new.

RATS AND MICE EXTERMIN ATED

] Rats and mice, enemies of mankind everywhere, and one of the most pot
 ent agencies of destruction anywhere,
 have been banished from the orphan age at Oxford, N. c.
 1 This spring they appeared in vast numbcrs-little brown mice and big gray rats. They gnawed their way into the cupboards, And were playing havoc with the grain in the barn. Traps they avoided, and the usual poisons they spurned.
 It was just about this time that War Saving Society was organized in the orphanage, but not vast num- Der of Thrift Stamps were bought, be- cause the inmates were not burdened with an overplus of money.
 But the superintendent had an idea. He had two ideas. He wanted to get rid of the pests and he wanted his charges to acquire habit of thrift. l Therefore he declared war on the yer min.
 For every casualty in ratdom or mousedom he offered bounty of one cent per head. And the little boys got busy and the little girls overcome their aversion for the pestiferous rodents, and war of extermination was declared.

Correspondence of Associated Press)
 Berlin, July 5.--The illicit trade in cigarets has grown to such propor- tions in Berlin that the authorities are considering campaign against profiteers who sell them for double and treble their value. Cigarets now have become so scarce that one of ordinary quality readily commands 15 cents and, while the price is plainly marked on each cigaret. they are daily sold in the streets by peddlers for much higher prices.

Now is the time when all the femi-
nine world Is talking suits for spring
We are browsing about among the dis
plays and estimating the worth of the
several distinctly different styles Of
fered. Designers and makers and buy
ers have been occupied for weeks as
sembling these exhibitions, that will
put to the test the virtues or the de-
fects of the models chosen. There IS
variety enough, especially in coats, to
provoke controversy and to give oppor-
tunity for suiting individual taste.
One feature which skirts have in
common is that they are longer than
they have been. The very narrow
skirt has been heralded, sometimes with
much adverse criticism, but it is not
by any means universal in spring suits.
Skirts just full enough to allow free
dom in walking, and plain, show no
signs of being superseded by the hob

been on the way for some time it was
delayed because the short skirt had
much to commend 1t and would not
pass without struggle-but now
skirts are longer.
