AIR IN CITY WATER
That Is What Causes 1t To Have Gas
Discoforation.

DlSNOEOEullOHs
1t is not contamination or harmful
material of any kind that is discolor-
ing the city water-just merely air
According to Commissioner Stanfield
while employees placed a "T' in the
main suction line Sunday morning, II
was impossible to keep quantities OF
air from being pumped into the
mains. The air pumped into the
water gives it the milky, frothy look.
If the water is allowed to settle for
minute or so the air bubble come
to the top and the water soon clears
up. There is nothing at all harmful
in it
Saturday night at midnight the
crews of the city water plant and the
electric light plant. under the direc-
ton of Commissioner Stanfield and
Superintendent Painter. went on the
job of installing the T in the suction
line. Owing to the Importance of the
work both Stanfield and Painter were
on the job until it was finished about
noon Sunday morning. During the
time the main suction line was cut
there was very little diminishing in
pressure. Commissioner Stanfield saw
to it that the reservoirs were full and
all ways of putting the surplus water
into the mains were arranged so as to
work with the highest efficiency altho
the main suction line was cut out. In
this way pressure in the city was
kept up.

With S65 of a S100 fine unpaid in a case in which he had pleaded guilty of an irregular cattle transaction; in jail on a charge of passing a forged check, he was arrested yesterday on the complaint of John Lively, charging him with lar ceny by bailee of ten head of cattle that had been committed to his care and which he is accused of converting to his own use.
 Bond was brought beSore Justice Wheeler, who had issued the warrant. He gave signs of that physical break down which usually attends his ap- pearance in court. He first assured the justice that he need not worry about the balance of the S100 fine; he was going to pay that he was man who always discharged debts of honor. and he felt that he ought to pay that one.
 The court advised Bond that he ought to get out of the cattle business and stay out of it. Cattle have been turing him to jail for years, and he ought by this time to know that he should avoid association with them, he was told He was held in the sum of $1,O0O

THE CAUTION OF KNOWLEDGE

The cable brings word of British ship building unions debating an of fer of the government to sell them, at much less than cost, a great shipyard. There is much doubt as to the deci- sion.
 At the moment when untrained, poorly organized and lily disciplined workers in Russia, Hungary and Italy are seizing industries by violence these well organized. trained and self-dis- ciplined workers debate on offer of ownership.
 These shipbuilding unions are not conservative. They were the center of radical activity during the war. They. have been jealous of every right and quick to resent every wrong. A majority of them have declared in favor of 'socialized industry. A large percentage are co-operators, engaged teaches the difficulties of industrial management.

TO SELL QUEEN BEss's RING
Telegranhl

GDilADi4 L NISS AdpIJ
 Everyday in these changeful times the news comes of new men succeed ing to old acres, and coincidentally the stream of old art treasures flows into the market The mandates of taxation are incalculable. Shortly the Earl of Homes collections of old sil- yer, furniture and objets dart, includ- ing Queen Elizabeth's mother pearl ring (with enamelled portrait of her self and her mother Anne Bolevn. in the bezel of iD. will be sold at Christie's, the Scottish castles of Bothwell and Douglas, and of the Hirsel at Coldstream having been stripped of these noble heirlooms. The Home family first received their grant of lands from William the Lion before 1214. The first lord was ambassador to England in Henry yrs time The third led the van at Flodden. and afterwards embraced the English in- lerest The fifth fought Bothwell. and protected James I in his youth, com ing with that monarch to England in 1903 as a privy councillor, and being created an earl in 1905.
 Rich and rare as the Home silver trophies will prove to be, popular in- terest will be centered in Queen Eliza beth's ring, which. it is highly probable entered the family possession through James Is henchman and protectO- the first earl This mother-o pearl hoop is overlaid on the shoulders with bands of gold set with rubies The gold bezel has six table diamonds forming the initial F., with a pearl and rubico This bezel opens and shows minutely chased and enameled portraits of the queen and her ill., fated mother. A diamond and ruby mark their costumes. On the inner side of the loop is a tiny gold plaque, delicately enameled with Queen Eliza beths hadge-a phoenix-and with a crown in translucent colors The chasing of the portraits was probably executed by that Italian artist, who worked the historic ring which the queen gave to the unfortunate Earl of Essex. This memento, it will be 1 recalled, created a furore when of fered at the Thyme sale, 1911. The late Lord Michelham paid $16,250 for | the frr7orS sardOnvx cameo.

 VABBED BY POLICE
 IN ALLEGED THEFT

Four young Mexican boys ranging in years from F to l6 overlooked the fact that machine sitting in front Of the Boston store last night contained d man with a well developed sense O.. public duty The young lads, who ac- cording to the police have heretofore had a rather shady reputation, worked havoc with the jewelry department of the Boston store, picked up nearly everything which was not tide down, left the store, stopped outside to divide the spoils, and were spotted by man sitting in an auto.
 Report Was immediately made to the police that the lads were seen dividing their loot and that they had gone south on Second avenue and evidently turned on Jefferson. Detective M. Joe Murphy, and Special Officer Moore set out in pursuit and over took the lads in a va cant lot rear the Jefferson hotel.
 They gave their names as Charlie Collins, aged IA, Gabrielle Fansica, 16, the leader, Vmcente Salves. IA, and Albert Salvos, 12. The younger boys claimed that Fonsica,s who is much larger, forced them to steal under pain of a beating. This Fonsica emphatic ally denid and claimed his reputation is peaceful.
 Upon the approach of the officers, the lads hurriedly started scattering watches, gold knives and chains over the landscape. collection was made and the boys brought to the police de- partment where it was found they had in their possession three watches, one wrist watch, three gold knives and six gold chains, as well as plentiful sup ply of cigarettes and matches.
 At first under examination they claimed they had bought the jewelry from various sources, but soon perceiv- ing the benefits to be derived from tell ing the truth. they admitted that two of the watches had been stolen from the Thayer hardware store, and that still another one had been sold that day to an unknown Mexican for one dollar. The eldest lad had the dollar in his possession. The wrist watch was identified as coming from the Boston store and the boys admitted taking the knives and chains from the same place
 It is the opinion of the police that they have cornered a gang of lads who have been committing depredations for some time. The eldest of the lads Gabrielle Fonsica is said to have been In trouble with the police before

HELENE DELIGHTED
 ID PAY FUR HIS FUN

Jim Damalas, a Helene, never part cd with money more cheerfully in his life than he did yesterday when he paid s25 in hand to Justice Wheeler. He said that he had value received; so pleased was he with the transaction that he thought of making another similar investment.
 The transaction was the putting of a head on J. D. Christy, a Greek with an un-Greek name. Both of them are employed at a cafe. Christy is said to be of a nagging disposition, and it was stated that he had picked upon Da- malas until the temper of the latter let go yesterday morning.
 Within the ensuing few minutes Christy was badly beaten and he looked like a veteran ia Balkan war when. he appeared in court to recite the occurrences that had befallen him.

has taught that changing ownership does not always transfer an income It may stop all production and income
 While these shipbuilders are op- posed to working only for wages they have TO desire to work without wages or to stop production and starve while waiting for a theoretical millennium.
 They hesitate to take possession of the industry with which they are most familiar. They carefully examine the teeth of the gift horse to make sure that he cannot bet his prospective owner. If after such hesitation and study the industry is taken there is reason to believe it will continue to produce an income.
 Labor is impatient of long suffered evils. Its heart is sick with long de- ferred hopes It is eager for voice in the business by which it lives. It wishes to enjoy the wealth it produces. It is told that the short cut to trium- phant peace and plenty lies through violent seizure of industry by em- ployes. Great populations are eagerly trying this plan.
 It is significant that the less peo- pies know of industrial management the quicker they appeal to violent seizure This is true not only of na- tions but of groups within nations. The advocates of sovietism in America are almost exclusively non industrial "intellectuals, or unorganized un- skilled, often iuiterate immigrants, who have endured much and learned little.
 Organized, skilled labor is little in fected with this philosophy It has been vaccinated against 1t by an in- jection of experience and information.
 The impetuous haste of ignorance does not bring progress but destruc- ton. Fools rush in where angels fear to tread

GERMANS DECIDE
WILL sign TREATY
PEACE ASSURED BY VOTE OF
NATIONAL ASSEMBLY
AT WEIMAR.
THREE RESERVATIONS ARE MADE
BY THE NEW CHANCELLOR
HERR BAUER.

Weimar, June 23.-The German
National assembly voted this after
noon to accept the peace treaty by
vote of 237 to 1873. Five members
declined to cast their ballots. At
this time also vote of confidence was
gwen the new government with Chan
cellor Bauer as the head. Fifty-fve
members declined to vote on this issue.
Bauer declared in a speech that the
Germans would sign but that they
would not recognize the terms which
placed the sole guilt for the war upon
Germany nor would they recognize
the right of the allies to demand that
private citizens, even though former
rulers of Germany, be turned over to
other nations for trial. The keynote
OF his speech was a warning to the
German people that they would suffer
less by signing the terms than refusing
them.
News Reaches Paris.
The German note, Paris accepting the
peace terms, was presented to the allies
at 5;25 o'clock this afternoon, less than
two hours from the time limit set for
presentation.
Authorized To Sign.
A Geneva dispatch to the Journal
declares that the German national
assembly has given Herr Haniel Won
Haimhausen full powers to sign the
peace terms.
Wednesday or Thursday.
The peace terms will not be signed
before Wednesday or Thursday, accord
ing to announcement. The Germans
have stated that additional plenipoten-
tiaries will arrive for the ceremony.
Wilson To Start For Home.
President Wilson's plans, which are
conditional on the signing of the treaty
tomorrow, are that he will leave Paris

What are we to think now Of that high
standard Of French civilization for which
America supposedly entered the war and
for which she had many thousands Of
her bravest sons slain on hearing of the
stoning Of the German peace delegates
by a Versailles mob? This illustration
surely is characteristic in the light of
the rawlings by the allied and American
press against so-called "hunnish'' acts
committed by the Germans. So far we
have not seen any condemnation OF the
French behavior by the same press.
