ARRESTED LADYS WHEEL
Who Owns Bicycle Locked Up
AT Station House?
ABANDONED ON WEST ST.


Awaiting claimant, or the owner
of the woman's bicycle, picked up
on West street at an early hour yes
terday morning, a bicycle is locked
up at the Station House, Duke of
Gloucester street.
While Sergeant Holiday was max
ing his rounds on Sunday night. and
early Monday morning, he noticed a
bicycle in front of the old store of
Frank Stromeyer on West street.
Upon closer investigation he found
the bicycle was woman's wheel. and
is painted black. Seeing no one about,
the Sergeant arrested" the bicycle
and took it to the station house.
All day yesterday an effort was
made to find the owner of the wheel,
but without success. The hour of
the arrest" was 2.30 in the morn
ing, and the question that is puzzling
the police authorities is, what a
woman's bicycle was doing there at
that hour in the morning."
1t has been suggested that some
woman may have been in hurry to
make the last train out of Annapolis
on the W, b. & A. Electric Line.
whose depot is not far from the place
where the bicycle was found, and may
have ridden the wheel to the point
near the station. there abandoning
the bicycle. However. the police au-
thorities are holding the wheel for its
owner and are hoping the right party
will claim it soon.

 The United States government can render services of the highest value to humanity, and to America itself which would suffer from a worldwide crisis.
 Italy needs above all things raw materials and foodstuffs. Italy has an immense reserve of manpower. In a fey years time-I am never tired of repeating it-Italy will be one of the richest countries in ;he world, be- cause she will use to the fullest extent that immense waterpOwer she pos sesses, besides her great man-power
 But We must overcome the present difficulties and take the first step, and in doing this we count upon the friendly and loyal help of the Ameri- can people.
 With regard to the Adriatic ques- tion, as in all other political ques- tions, Italy has always wanted, and still wants, to be restored as a power in favor of peace anu democracy. America, or at least a considerable portion of American public opinion, has no conception of the efforts and sacrifices made by Italy during the war. Italy is country which entered the war animated by sentiments of the purest ideahsm. She suffered the most severe losses. She joined in the was spontaneously and received the least compensation for the havoc the war brought. "The discussion over the Adriatic problem has been bitter because it is largely a matter or sentiment In fact, the territorial dispute has no eco homie reason. In the agreements made in Paris and London, Italy showed the most forbearing and friendly spirit We looked upon the Jugo-Slavs as friends. We are dis posed to collaborate with them in the future. They are our neignbors; we desire that our relations with them may grow ever closer.

 Oh, yes, they're Rangers, all right. They wear big white five-gallon hats, fancy sewed or 'inlaid" boots, and flannel shirts a-plenty. They carry an average of three guns apiece, which they use expertly.

BETTER THAN CALOMEL
Thousands Have Discovered Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets

Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets-the sub stitute for calomel-are q mild but sure laxative, and their effect on the liver is almost instantaneous. These little olive Colored tablets are the result of Dr. Edwards determination not to treat liver and bowel complaints with calonel.
 The pleasant little tablets do the good that calonel does, but have no bad after effects. They don't injure the teeth like strong liquids or calomel. They take hold of the trouble and quickly correct it. Why cure the liver at the expense of the teeth? Calomel sometimes plays havoc with the gums. So do strong liquids. It is best not to take calomel. Let Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets take its place.

 All of them are tall, well built, and chafe under the enforced inactivity of waiting for the deputy sheriff of Wichita county to come and serve the injunction issued by Judge George Calhoun of the Fifty-third district court of Texas. Rangers do not serve civil papers. Judge Calhoun has is sued an injunction similar to the one issued by Judge Frank Mathews of Tillman county, Oklahoma, across the river.
 Both injunctions give possession of the disputed property to the state of ficers of their respective states. Both injunctions put the property in the hands of a receiver, who is to operate it until the courts definitely establish claims.
 But the Rangers do not worry about injunctions. One fashioned a checker board, and labeled one side Texas" and the other Oklahoma" Then, using cartridges as checkers the hard boiled gentlemen who are the terror
