AMERICAN SEIZED
 BY B0LSHEvlkI HAS DISAPPEARED

London, July 9.---Roya1 c. Keely, an American engineer, recently ar- rested by Bolshevik auth horitfes as he was about to leave Russia where he
 had executed an industrial commits
 sion for the Soviet government, in
 cured the displeasure of the So-
 viets because he told the truth,
 plain and unvarnished," Nicolas Is-
 nard, chairman of the All-Russian
 Central Council of Trade and Indus
 try, said upon his arrival here. Is-
 nard fled from Russia where, he de- clared, the misery and dislocation
 of life is complete"
 The fate of the American has not
 been learned. According to Isnard,
 Keely went to Russia in September,
 1919, at the invitation of the Bolshe-
 vik government, and as an expert on
 technical and industrial organization
 was asked to make a complete report
 to the soviet government Ion ways
 and means to save the Russian in
 dustrial situation"
 'fOn his arrival in Russia, Keely
 was received with great honors and
 exceptional facilities were afforded
 him to travel all cver the country
 Isnard said. ssHe visited the indus trial concerns of Petrograd and Mos COW, travelled to the great textile
 
 the coal mines of the Donetz, and completed his trip by a tour in the Ura1s.
 Upon his return to Moscow in January, 1920, Keely was lodged in the comnissariat of foreign affairs in the famous palace where other distinguished visitors latef found a sumptuous welcome and the Krem- lin intimated it's great desire for his report. Here the American com mitted his first and greatest mistake In his report he told the soviets the truth, plain and unvarnished. The gist of his report can be resumed as follows:
 tThe industrial concerns of Petro- grad and Moscow are ruined com pletely, and it will need years to get them into some sort of working or der. The machines and tools are ir | a disorderly condition, rapidly de teriorating, and many vital parts are lacking. All skilled labor seems te have disappeared completely. The Donetz coal mines are in very bad position also, and will need two ol three years to put them straight The work in the Urals are in a bet | ter condition and could be tuned LII | quickly. But nothing useful can be achieved until all decrees agains property and personal security are apnulled.''
 Isnard declared Kee1y, in an ex planatory note gave "extra ordinary examples of Bolshevik administrative 1 incompetence" one of which wal l that boilers of the electrical station l in Petrograd were kept going fo some time by stoking them with al l the great stores of mahogany ac 1 cumulated in the car-building shop there.
 | After this report Kee1y's position l changed completely, Isnard contin ued, and although he prevailed upo1 1 the foreign commissariat to giv l him a, permit to leave the country I he was arrested at the frontier, ant | since then nothing has been hear about him.

A HUMMING BIRD WARRIOR

'tOne morning sudden outcries from the chickens brought me to the win dow, rifle in hand, for such a racket had only one meaning" writes R. I. Brasher in his story of a hum ming bird family, "A Gallant in Ruby and Gold" which appears in the July number of Boys Life. "A Cooper Hawk had made a dive, but the wires surrounding the yard spoiled the swoop and he lit on one of the fence posts to figure out a more effective as swift as a bullet Sir Ruby shot at him. The hawk drew back his head with ruffled feathers and as stunned a pose of .frfghtfulness' but it was no go-the attack became more vicious. more insistent and to save his face also his eyes, he dived for the woods twisting and turning to escape the demon which followed with persistent jabs at the back of his head.
 We had been losing chicks from Lady Jane's in the orchard for some days. I attributed this slaughter to the gentleman just defeated. That evening another chick was gone. AL though a shy but persistent chicken thief, it did not seem probable that after his experiences of the afternoon the hawk would return the same day. I had been out of doors most of the time and heard no hawk tocsin sounded. At daylight next morning Sir Ruby suddenly left his sleeping perch just over the nest and darted into a clunp of blackcap bushes at the end of the grape arbor. A se- ries of short rushes and out sneaked a brindle cat. So that was the chick en thief! The .25 ended his career. We lost no more chicks.
 'One morning as l watched the evolufions of a male Marsh Hawk Ca pair of which had bred every year in our valley his S-yrations-a gigan- tic imitation of Sir Ruby's half-ciscle amorous exhibitions-were suddenly brought to a halt by the onslought of a Kingbird whose mate was at work on a nest in nearby valley the con- queror returning with elated twitter- ;ngs of triumph to his vantage post near the nesting site. Alas his vic- tory was short-lived! for with an inn petuosity which knows not discretion, Sir Ruby shot at him, and flight ignominious fight-was the only al- formative of the erstwhile hero.''

GROWN PRINCE
 HAD ENCOUNTER
 WITH SKIPPER

London, July 1o-The recent death in Vancouver, B. C.. of Captain John Johncox, once s weli-known British yacht skipper, has recalled here the story of two encounters the skipper had with the late King Edward when he was Prince of Wales.
 The German Grown Prince, after ward Emperor William, and the Prince of Wales had disagreed and were settling the argument with fists on the sands at Cowes when Johncox separated them and stopped the fight. The Crown Prince was said to have been SO. enraged that he boarded his yacht and returned to Germany.
 On another occasion the Prince of Wales playfully ripped up Johncox at dusk on the Royal Yacht Squad ron Green and the skipper used his fists freely against the future king. It was said Johncox failed to recognize the prince.

FARMERS DEMAND
 U. S. OWNED SHIPS

Washington, July 10-Government ownership and the operation of ships should be permanent, the Farmers National Council declares in a state ment issued here yesterday in oppost- ton to the policy of the Merchant Marine Law directing sale of vesselN.
 The council declares exports of ag- ricultural products have increased since the government has been run ming the ships. Secretary of Agricul- ture Meredith is quoted as having said the agricultural products exported last year amounted to 55 per cent. as against 34 per cent. fin 1916.
 "we understand" the statement continues "that the Shipping Board is required to carry out the policy adopted by Congress in the Shipping Bill, but the fact remains that great and very serious hardship will be imposed upon the farmers by this policy, and it is imperative that this act of gross injustice to farmers be repealed at the earliest possible mo- ment."
