into China and bolshevik' agents cross the 7oo-mlle Gobi desert in their trips to and from the Vladivostok district.
 1t was this old-world caravan route that the Associated Press correspondent used to enter Siberia, travelling by train, automobile horse and steamboat from Pekin to Verkhne- Udinsk on the Selenga river where travel by the Trans-Siberian Railway again is possible.
 Wireless dispatches from Moscow state that Ataman Semenoff has ceased his apti-boshevik activities; has. it is report ed, even asked that his forces be incor- porated in the bolshevik armies. Such action would mean an open way into Si- beria.
 But Asia never will compete with Flu rope for the favor of the battlefield tour ist. There can be no few days tours of the battlefields in Russia. There war is a science of great spaces, as well as of guns and men and strategy. In a day Russian armies can advance or re- treat over more ground than some Flu ropean armies covered in years of war.
 The retreat of Admiral Kolchak forces from Perm and Ufa ended at Chita, 5VW niles to the rear, the distance across the United States from Maine to California the longest retreat in military history. And the distance from the koichak iroIe in the Urals to the other Russian rrohtS is that of the breadth of Europe

ORNAMENTS SIDEWALK
New Post for ''Screever III water
 loo Place Near German Embassy

London October 0.-tReciprocal News Service. )-A woman screever. or sidewalk artist, has taken up her place in Waterloo place. between the Ger man embassy on Carlton terrace and the Athenaeum at the corner of Pail Mall.
 She has the usual collection of scenes in colored chalk; a blue mountain rising in a green sky; raging sea; matched cottage in the country; bunch of grapes with some bananas; also some portrait and foreign types At one end of her gallery is this ap- peal in scrolly script:
 "A Woman's Endeavor to Elucidate The High Cost of Living
 With Myself and Child to Maintain. These Pictures are Made on the
 Stones Without the Aid of Sketches
 At the other end she sits with her collection box awaiting the pennies. And she gets many, for Waterloo place has many well-to-do passers by as welt as easy -come-easy-go spenderse ern ployed in government offices.
 American tourists marvel at the number of these screevers all over Lon don. Not because they are tolerated, for they do add interest to the streets. But it is extraordinary that London alone of all the big cities in the world has these sidewalk artists, and London has rain every few days that washes away in a minute this art in chalk.

PASSPORT OFFICES
Changes in Both American and Ger.
 man Bureaus in London

London. October 10.-( Reciprocal News Service.)-Since October 1 the American passport office, which has been a part of the mbassy has been discontinued and all functions of the bureau transacted a the American con sulategeneral in Gavendish square. This is in keeping with the practicce adopted some months ago in Paris. which has proven successful.
 Five embassy clerks were trans ferred to the consulate and the others were absorbed by other sections of the embassy. For some time the embassy passport office has been in charge of a chief clerk, rather than a third sec retary, as the work has narrowed down to the extension and issue of passports. These applications are now freely approved.
 Although the consulate has an in creasing flood of applicants for visas. it's work too has greatly diminished as no visas are now required of Amer ican citizens for returning home. The procedure today is almost wholly that Of registration and collection of fees. The German embassy simultaneously transferred it's passport staff to a special office in Bedford square near the French consulate. In the cluster of Bloomsbury squares there are now located practically all of the passport bureaus of the principal nations. In cidental1y the German embassy on Pail Mall Is having a new coat of white paint and other refurnishing.

RUSSIA IS STILL
 CLOSED ID TOURIST
Only Way to Get Into Country Is Through China and
 Mongolia
Rx Associated Pres.

London, September 23.-Russia remains the one country sealed to the postwar tourist. Until an Associated Press cor respondent and another American recent l5 made the 5,Oo0-mile journey from Vladivostok. Siberia, into Russia proper. through Moscow and Petrograd, and out across the Finnish frontier, no Amer jeans had crossed Russia for more than two years.
 After Admiral Kolchak's defeat last year, Russia and part of Siberia again were united, but the red forces did not follow up their successes beyond IT, kutsk. Scattered remnants of Kolchak's forces retreated on foot to Chita where they joined with the Cossacks and legion aries under Atamon Semenoff and there again established an anti-bolshevik bar rier.
 Then Vladvostok the Siberian port, fell to local revolutionists, who expressed tteir sympathy for the soviet regime, but it was understood in vladivostok the attempt to establish soviet regime in far eastern Siberia was to be postponed until after the departure of foreign 1T oops
 Thus Siberia remained divided, the bol- <sheviki flag flying in the Lake Baikal and Maritime provinces, while between these districts Semenoff and his Cos sacks continued to hold the "black spot" of Siberia, as the bolsheviki term the Cos sack territory.
 Thousands of refugees from boisnevism are gathered in Irkutsk. Their one desire is to get out of bolshevik territory, but the Cossacks will not allow them to pass along the railway zone, fearing bol- shevik agents in their numbers. On the other side of the Cossack barrier reru- gees who have gathered at Vladivostok and Harbin during the last three years try in vain to cross the Cossack belt Into soviet Siberia. Difficult living conditions in vladivostok have made them ready listeners to the stories of bolshevik agents about ideal life under the soviet regime Each group of refugees wishes to be in the others shoes.
 One way is open into Siberia. de- tour of 2,0oO miles. through northern China and Mongolia, across the Gobi desert brings the traveller into Siberia across the northern Mongclian fontisr. Over this route thousands of Chinese la borers and small shoplzeepers have re- turned to China since the establishment of the bolshevik regime in Siberia.

Delivers This Pathe to Your Home

the JeWeled Pa the There five distinct and definite reasons why you should own the genuine jeweed Pahe in prefer ence to all other phonographs And this great na- tionwde Demonstration Sale is to prove the super iority of these points, beyond the question of doubt
 1.-Because the full, clear tone of each individual ly toned instrument is reproduced by the pure tone chamber and the famous Pathe Sapphire Ball The music flows from the records. It isn't scratched off
 2.-Because there are no needles to change on the genuine Pathe. The Sapphire Ball never out, neither does it out the records 3.-Because the Pathe plays all makes of records, and plays them with more natural and lifelike tone than any other Monograph. The entire wealth of the phonograph world is available to you, if you own the Pathe 4.-Because the Pathe is always ready to play Just slip on record and the Pathe is ready. s.-Because the Pathe Controlla enables you to play any record loudly or softly with the same Sapphire Ball.

SELLING LIVE STOCK
IN RURAL DISTRICTS
Simplest Plan Is Where Buyer
Visits Producer.
Farmer 10 at Disadvantage Because Of
Lack Of knowledge Of Market
Conditions or In Quality and
Quantity Of Animals

The simplest method of disposing OF
live stock prepared for market Is that
in which the buyer visits the producer.
examines the stock and gives the pro-
ducer an opportunity to make a sale.
In the more denseIy populated farm
ing sections local butchers and stock
buyers travel through the country
looking for stock. These buyers, as
rule. purchase stock at prices which
are below current market quotations,
in order to allow for shrinkage and
expenses connected with delivery.
They may also endeavor to drive hard
bargains with producers who are at
disadvantage In any respect, as. for
instance, In knowledge Of market con-
ditions or in the quality and quantity
of the stock they may have to sell.
Underfed or low-grade stock is almost
sure to find q purchaser who will raise
objections to Its quality and fitness for
market or slaughter. say live stock ex-
perts Of the United States department
of agriculture. and will demand
maximum Of accommodation In the
handling and delivery Of the stock.
The buyer may or may not require
delivery to the local slaughter house
or stock yards. much depending on the
demand Of the market for the class Of
stock sold. Some feeders sell rather
regularly to the same buyer, plan
which has certain advantages for both
buyer and seller. II the buyer feels
quite certain Of obtaining well-fnished
animals which he can use to advan-
tage, he will b likely to make liberal
concessions In regard to the DISPOSE
ton of the stock after sale; and the
stockman fnds 1t more convenient ~
well a. agreeable, to sell to man
with whom he Ii acquainted, In whom
he has confidence. whose methods
be understands. and on whom he
can cali Wheneyer he II ready to
sell.
