Who Owns the FLAG.

If any American citizen has no owner

Thoughts Of Today
A FIy's Age.

I have in my possession fossil
specimen of the larva of the Dobson
fly l have ventured to name it Ann,
so that everyone may have the privi-
lege of guessing it's age. The rock of
which it is composed is piece of blue
paving stone. l picked up the speci-
men at the side of the road on the
south shore of Lake Erie, near Cleve-
land, some years ago. 1t had been
dropped off load of quarried stone.
The slab is about nine inches square.
Adjoining the insect are the frOnds of
a fossil fern, upon which it might have
been resting. Every child should be
encouraged to look at ordinary objects
with interest, because a treasure may
be passed over by the unobservant. In
fact, many of my friends today say,
"How did you manage to see it?''

Law Officers VS.. Brigands.

Mr.. Bryan's suggestion that the sub
ject of peace or war being submitted to
a referendum of the people may be
by imagining the Germans
being asked to wait for referendum
to the Belgian people before King AL
bert could decide! When war comes it
comes without warning. The attacker
tries to catch the victim off his guard.
Only by quick return blow can safety
be assured to the defense. That is the
trouble with these professional paci-

force, but would wait until an accumu-
lation of crimes of violence took place
before training a policeman and then
call a town meeting, whose decision
should be referred to popular vote at
the next election as to whether the
criminals should be resisted or not
Soldiers and sailors of nation are but

ton is to keep peace between peoples.
England's navy is but an ocean traffic

New York, but Owner
Is Fined.

New York.-Joseph Weiss, thirty
five and married, who runs a candy
store at 4S9 East One Hundred and
Sixty-ninth street, was arraigned be-
fore Magistrate Nolan in night court
on a charge of disorderly conduct in
having kissed eighteen-year-old Fran
ces Heckler when she went into his
store to buy some candy kisses.
Magistrate Nolan fined Weiss 50,
which he paid. The magistrate, in fix
ing the amount of the fine, said in a
judicial aside to the clerk, KISSES are
cheaper now since the boys came back
from the war;"
Miss Heckler was in night court in
a state bordering on Mysteries and
testified that she had gone back to
the counter at Weiss invitation to Sc
lect what she wanted when he put his
arm around her and kissed her Wig
orously upon the mouth.

A Fable, but Not a Fabulous One.
Two doctors were sent to relieve
sick man. They said, "How badly he
looks! !" So they decided to make him
look better They cut his hair, shaved
and trimmed his mustache. "Now."
they said, she looks better, and we'll
see how he looks in the morning." But
in the morning he was worse So they
sent for two other doctors, who said:
'"Those fellows don't understand their
business. It is his unsanitary sur
roundings." So they mopped the floor,
busted the furniture, put clean sheets
in his bed and said, "Now, he'll do"
Still the man did not get well, so
third consultation of new doctors was
called. "Oh," they said, che has a cold
in his head" So they gave his chloro-
form and cut his head off, thus getting
rid of the cold, if that was the trouble.
But when they tried to get new head
they couldn't get one that would fit nor
so good as the one they had removed.

SALE is STOPPED
Temporary Injunction Against
Hun Ship Auction Granted.
to Hold War Prizes
in Congress Soon.

Washington, Feb. ia temporary
Injunction against the sale of ex-Ger-
man passenger liners by the United
States shipping board was granted to-
day by Justice Bailey of the District
of Columbia court.
Hearings on the question OF making
the injunction permanent will be held
later, probably some time next week.
Bailey declared that present laws
showed no intention on the part of
congress to grant to the president or
any of his appointees power to sell the
ships.
This question, Bailey said. was the
sole one raised by the government in
opposition to the application for the
injunction.
Advocates of government ownership
of the merchant marine were called
today before the senate commerce
committee which is investigating the
proposed sale of German liners.
Legislation which will give to the
government permanent power to pre-
vent transfer Of American ships to for
eign flags and appropriations to guar
antee operators against loss If they
keep vessels in trades allocated by the
board, are expected to be sought in
. congress within the next few weeks.
Chairman Payne of the shipping
board announced that an appeal from
the temporary injunction order would
be filed Immediately. Meantime he
said it was expected that Mr.. Hearst
would be required to furnish bond to
protect the board against loss by rea-
son of the ships lying idle.

GOES INTO BONDING BUSINESS.
Plan Offered to Make Surety Bonds
for Postoffice Employees Easy.

Washington, Feb. IA plan for a
surety insurance system for postoffice
employees, enabling them to obtain
bonds without going to surety con-
Germs, is-contained in the senate sub
committee draft of the annual post
office appropriation bill. An assess
ment would be levied upon employees
of the service from which losses would
be made good.
The subcommittee decided in favor
of extending to first class mail the
prepayment system used in connection
with the second class mail which
obviates the use of stamps in certain
cases. A saving to the government
was expected to result.

Berlin, Feb. disqualification that
the entente powers had recognized
Germanys contention relative to the
physical impossibility of surrendering
men accused of violation of the laws
of war was expressed today by for
eign office official. =. He said that it
was inevitable that internal chaos
would result from such a step and de-
clared the German cabinets position
was materially strengthened as the re-
suit of the decision reached by the
supreme council in London.
I'VE do not for a single moment de-
lude ourselves with the assumption
the government has scored a diplo
matte victory in persuading the en-
tente to recede from its original atti-
tude on the extradition ISSUE" he said.
while we are all gratified, inasmuch
as the allied note permits the conclu-
sion the entente is inclined to smooth
the path for other negotiations, we are
fully conscious of the dangers and diff
ficulties to be met with in the trial of
war criminals. In this connection it
is hoped the very scant evidence pre-
scented in the extradition list will be
supplemented by specific testimony or
that cases for which no tangible evil
dence is adduced will be abandoned"
Only Monarchists Dissatisfied.
The general impression prevailed
here today that the former kaiser will
remain in Holland. the Dutch govern
ment possibly establishing certain
safeguards to prevent his possible es-
cape or dealings with German mon
archist plotters.
Newspapers printed the last allied
note to Holland on extradition of the
| former emperor, the Dutch reply to
the first allied note and the German
| note to the allies side by side, hail
ing the allied decision to allow trials
of the war guilty in Leipzig as COM
plete victory for Germany.
Only the monarchist Pan-Germans
| failed to look upon the allied decision
as a complete about face. The moderate
press insisted the German government
will carry out fair trials of all the
accused.
In government quarters, it was
| learned sefni-officially that the gov
eminent considers the crisis has pass
| ed. Officials said the real war guilty
will be brought totrial but indicated
| the allies will be informed later that
it is just, as impossible to try some
OF the accused at Leipzig as any other

BUTTER TRADITION COSTLY
Makers Insisted Upon Tubs Made of
Ash Wood and Added Cent Per
Pound to Price of Their Product.

Chicago, Feb. 1s.-Elimination of
packing butter in tubs of ash wood
will reduce the price of butter at least
one cent a pound, F. w. Bouska, Chi
cago, secretary of the American Asso-
citation of Creamery Butter Manufac-
turers, declared today. Butter manu-
facturers in session here agreed to
eliminate ash tubs and pack their
products in boxes of nen-odorous
wood.
Packing butter in tubs of ash wood
is tradition" Bouska said. The sup
ply of ash trees is practically exhaust
ed and the result is that this kind of
wood is at a premium.
Five years ago. butter manufactur-
ers could buy ash wood tubs at S5
cents apiece, today they are So cents.

the results of an exhaustive study he
has made on this point, he said today.
Such action is favored by Representa-
tive Volstead, Minnesota, chairman of
the judiciary committee.
Democrats Fear Politics.
Democrats apparently believe Fess's
amendment is more of a political
move with the view OF reflecting upon
the recent illness of the president
than an endeavor to meet any emerg-
ency and for that reason hopes for
the approval of his or any similar
plan at this session of congress appear
slight. A two-thirds of both houses
is necessary for the amendment. Tess
is chairman of the Republican con-
gressional committee.
Another Bill Introduced.
Another bill to deal with a situation
arising from the inability of presi-
dent to transact his duties was intro
duced today in. the house.
Representative Madden, Republican
Illinois, offered a measure empower
ing the cabinet to determine when a
president is disabled.
Like other similar measures intro
duced yesterday, it would not be APP
plicable to President Wilson, as 1t
would not become effective until next
March 4. Mr.. Madden's measure pro-
poses that after a president had beSn
unable for six weeks, thru physical
disability or absence from the country
to perform his duties, the cab1net
could declare the disability and call
upon the vice president to act. The
vice president would remain in office
until the ca binet should declare the
presidents disability ended.
Mr.. Madden said he was moved to
introduce his bill because Mr.. Wilson
had esta bIished a precedent in CON
tending that cabinet meetings could
not be held without his order and that
definite laws on the subject were

night that it was hard for me to get
any sleep. l was constipated the worst
kind and so weak and dizzy at times

II finally began taking Tanlac from
hearing so many people talk about it,
but the first bottle didn't seem to help
me much and I Thought of giving it
up. But then L concluded there must
be something to it, or so many people
wouldn't say II had helped them. 50

feel like a new man. 1 did not feel
any great difference until I had fin

actually gained twenty-eight pounds.

five pounds and am still gaining both
iE weight and strength every day, My
stomach and kidneys are both in good
shape, my spains are gone, and my
nerves are calm and steady. My wife
also took Tanlac after a spell of influ-
enza and it was just wonderful how
she regained her lost weight and
