Next Big Reform to
Hit Dope Fiends and
Cigarette Smokers

Now that. we have. prohibition,
what's the next big reform?
Three leading reformers in Chica-
go gave three answers recently.
Abolish the leg-that is, purify
the legitimate stage. Abolish dope.
Abolish the cigarette.
Each expert put forward his or
her pet reform as the most necess-
airy. They said:
r. Scott Mcbride, secretary of the
Illinois Anti-Saloon league:
Next we will go after the Illicit
sale of drugs. Prohibition will be
made complete in America and then
sweep the world"
Lucy Page CASTOR. anti-cigarette
leader: tThe cigarette and tobacco
in all forrhs-now sapping Amer.

Bismarck S Old Clock,
Stopped When He Left,
Is on Same Mantel

VERSAILLES. - (By Mail -For
nearly fifty years a clock in YER
sailles has marked the exact minute
that Bismarck took his leave, after
having made his headquarters there
for five months. The clock stands
just where it did in the winter 1870
1S71-on the mantel in the room
where Bismarck dictated Prussia's
peace terms to Theirs, the French
minister.
Bismarck took the pendulum with
him when he departed for Berlin
and that's the reason that the hands
of the old clock still show the time
1t was at the home Of Madame
Jesse, in the quiet Rue. de Provence,
that Bismarck set up his headquar-
ters when he entered Versailles on
October 5, 1870. The house and it's
surroundings are much the same to-
and still the property of the same
family. Henri Jesse, son Of Madame
Jesse, who was small boy when
Bismarck Communicated his moth
er's home, but who still remembers
the occasion, now makes his home
in this house.
The house, located between a
courtyard and garden, is isolated
from neighboring buildings and ap-
parently offered the security desired
by Bismarck. An additional precau-
ton. according to Henri Jesse, was
taken by the Germans in placing
guard companies in the homes scat
tered about Rismarck's chosen resi-
dence and in maintaining an elab-
crate military police Gordon all about
the neighhorhood.
Previous to his departure, Bis
marck attempted to buy the clock
from Madame Jesse, but the French
woman refused flatly to part with it.
On the morning of March 6, 1871,
Bismarck left Versailles. Noticing
the look of relief on the faces of
the French people who watched him
prepare for the trip, he remarked,
"Well, everyone seems to be glad to
see my heels" Then turning to
gardener standing nearby, he handed
him Borty francs and an address in
Wilhelmstrasse Berlin, saving, "This
is for the clock in case Madame Jesse
changes her mind"
On entering the house after Bis
marcks departure, the pendulum was
found to be missing.

dering pretty Frieda Lesser, his 20
year-old sweetheart, on the night be-

After week of preparation and in
vestigation, the scene was suddenly
shifted directly into the superior
court when the grand jury returned
an indictment charging New with
first degree murder.
The indictment had the effect of
eliminating the necessity of a pre-
liminary hearing, and, lawyers say.
seemed to assure News going to
trial first in the criminal court for
murder. rather than before a lunacy
commission for insanity.

"Cave Men" Are Now
Found AGAIN in Rome

"Covemen," relics of pre-histor-
is days of human housing, live in
Rome-poetically described as the
cradle of civiliZation-side by side
with institutions of art and learn
ing.
The caves are under the very
shadow of the British art school
and the italian College of Mod
ern Arts. Within a short dis
lance is the national stadium. On
the other side of the street. the
Porta Del Populo. through which.
before the days of railroads, all
pilgrims to Rome passed.
The reversion of Romans to the
caves is not retrogression; 1t Is
evasion. Rents in Rome have
been so extortionately high that
these Romans have sought refuge
in the Tufo Rocs of Rome. All
efforts of the municipal ~Nlice to
eject the tenants from the caves
have failed. The cavemen would
go away. but return as soon as
the attention of the police turned
to another direction.

The project of laying another sub
marine cable line between Japan and
the United States as a private enter
prise with a view to facilitate and
improve the Geographic communica-

reported TO be making Roadway. The
plan is said to have secured the
warm support Of Japanese govern
ment authorities and of over thirty
influential business men who are ex-
pected to finance the undertaking.
The investigators say that the
number of words handled on the

years shows a yearly proportionate
increase of about 35 per cent. About
