CALLED OUT TO
STOP PAIR FIRES

Two fires, Saturday evening, re-
suited in a loss aggregating $500,
despite the quick response by the
city fire department.
The first alarm was sounded at
6:12, when CHIEF Gattis and his corps
of fire fighters, braving a cold wave,
answered a call to the residence at
oil Colorado avenue, occupied by
D. M. Long. This blaze was caused,
Chief Gattis says, by an explosion
of a kerosene container. The loss
was placed at $3.50. The house was
owned by R. e. Link.
AS the clock registered 10:4O, the
department answered another call to
the home of Mrs. NJ. NJ. Porterfield,
where a blaze resulted in a damage
of practically $3.50 to the contents
OF a storehouse. The origin of the
blaze is unknown to the fire depart
ment, the chief said this morning.

ENDLESS CHAIN NOT MYSTICAL
Doctor Fighting Influenza Explains
How Curative Serum Went From

RIFLE THAT BOONE CARRIED
old.FashIoned Flint Lock Said TO Have
Been Brought to Wisconsin
Town by Southerner.

Daniel Boone's rife, genuine old
fashioned flint lock, carried by Boone
on many a perilous trip in the dark
and bloody hunting ground of Ken
lucky and on his famous Indian hunt
Ing expeditions, was recently brought
into a hardware store In q small town
In southwestern Wisconsin for much
needed repairs. 1t Is now the prop
erty of Mr.. Rafter formerly of Mis-
slssippi, who recently traded his $500
acre plantation for Wisconsin property
and has moved his effects north. The
rifle was given him by a doctor, to
whom 1t had been given by an aged
hermit living in the mountains Of Ten
nessee.
The rifle is q formidable affair,
real 'long rifle" one of the type that
gave the nickname of the "long rifles"
to our western frontiersmen. 1t has
a barrel 46 inches long, is As caliber,
a flint lock with a patchbox of In

HUGE HOAX WORKED
ON GERMAN SPIES
BY United Press.

BY United Press.
LONDON, Jan. 1S.-(By mail)-
True spy tales which make works
of fiction insignificant are gradually
being unfolded by the British secret
service One of these shows how
Great Britain put over a huge hoax
on German spies an dtheir govern
ment.
At the outbreak of the war the
English channel was unprotected by
mines and submarine barrages.
Neither was it possible to take the
necessary precautions in time and
the admiralty feared that if once
the enemy was aware of this lack
of defense they would seek to make
immediate use of their U-boats.
So keen-eyed admiralty Official
detailed a plan, showing how effec-
lively the channel could be mined.
The plan was given to a pretended
oiitiSus IdllOI' WIZ COOh IL 10 a
German agent, known to the gov
ernment.
With much secrecy the traitor"
told the German that the admiralty
had succeeding in mining the chan
mel. The agent asked for proof and
the traitor" let him have a glimpse
of the detailed plan. Finally \sle
German Offered $3,5OO for the plan.
The offer was accepted.
Every facility was then secretly
given the German agent to get the
plan to Berlin where the government
was so impressed with the effective
system" that it didn't attempt for a
long time to invade the channel BY
that time the British admiralty had
perfected its defense.

: OUR GREATEST PERIL

The retirement of William G. McAdoo
from the enormously important post OF
director general of railways leaves the
nation confronted by one of the gravest
perils of its existence.
This is not exaggeration. 1t is SIM
pie statement of the consensus of opin-
ion of the ablest men in Congress, irres-
pectiye of party. These are the facts on
which they base their opinion. When
President Wilson, in his last message to
Congress, observed concerning the rail-
way problem, Let me say at once have
no answer ready" he was, as is now OBJ
vious, merely quibbling. He meant, not
that he had no answer, but that he was
not ready at that moment to state it. This
is proved by his immediate endorsement
of Mr.. McAdoo's recommendation OF a
five year extension of government con-
troll. And in the light OF his now obvious
purpose, his threat to restore the rail-
ways to private ownership ''even before
the extension Of statutory period unless
there should appear some clear prospect
in the meantime of legislative solution"
assumes a new and menacing Signifi-
canoe.
For two years from March A, despite
the Republican majoHties in Congress,
Mr.. Wilson will possess the veto power
He is committed to, the extension for five
year of Federal control, and, unless he
should change his mind, no matter what
legislative measure the congress might
pass, there would be no Clear prospect
Of legislative solution.
Entirely gernane to this situation are
certain highly significant if less import
ant facts. On the day Secretary McAdoo's
Recommendation was made public he
caused the office of Railway Administra-
ton in Washington to give to the news.

that, of course, if Mr.. McAdoo's recon-
mendation were carried out there would

ident Wilson has asked Congress for an
appropriation of $100,000,000 to defoat
Bolshevism in Europe. If, as indicated,
this money will stem the tide of Bolshev-
ism it will be wisely spent. Z.
Nevertheless the plan savors of an ex-
pertinent which carries no guarantees ex-
cept increased taxes at home. The re-
quest is based on the theory that Bolshev-
ism is the result of~staryation. 1t does
mot seem to consider that starvation. is
the result Of Bolshevisrn.~ Russia was
lost to the allied cause largely as a result
of our effort to render material assist
ance without proper military protection.
Before the fail OF the Kerensky regime
the allies felt that Russia could establish
order and stability if provided with suf-
ficient supplies and equipment. We de-
clined to surround our shipments with
military protection with the result that
our efforts availed us nothing. The ex-
pertinent was failure and prolonged the
war, if it did not actually give Bolshev-
ism its first foothold in the world.
Bolshevism threatens the peace of the
world. There can be no doubt but what
hunger makes new converts, notwith-
standing the fact that many are hungry
only by reason Of the presence of Bolshev-
ism. We cannot ignore the situation
which confronts the world; neither can
we provide food for the hungry ana leave
them to the Bolshevih. If the Bolshev-
ili do not seize the food shipments, they
are likely to seize the rights of these peo-
pl In our efforts to feed the world we.
must make certain that we feed no Boil
shevik. Fat Bolshevih are as dangerous
and hungry civilians.
We cannot agree with the statement OF
president Wilson that force avails moth
ing jim the fight against Bolshevism. Boil
sheNism is essentially, an element of force
and must be fought with IT'S own fire. To
subdue it with kindness is bound to prove
as futile as our efforts to tame Germany
by forgetting the national insults to tame
Germany by forgetting the national in
suits she heaped upon us before our entry
into the, conflict The Bolshevik desires
share in our food benevolence, we finance
his campaign. Our relief expedition must
be safeguarded by a force which will
guarantee that nothing will be wasted on
