Ross" Ham, as r. P. Ham of
Bath is known to thousands, has a
wide acquaintance and a wonderful
memory for faces, acquired largely
through his many years in the news
paper business. The Times says he
was standing last Saturday morning
in front of a Boston hotel and there
hashed into his mind. while thinking
of the Bostonians he knew 20 years
ago, the name Of Lewis, at that time
a Hub policeman. who was accus-
toned to pass his vacations in Bath.
AS he was thus 'ponderins, along
came an old man whose face had
familiar look and he spoke to the ap-
preaching man, addressing him as
Mr.. Lewis" 1t was indeed his
former acquaintance and the Boston

who had gone out to pass the night
in the woods for whatever game they
might scare up, records the bath
Times. Their dogs, two airdales and
a spaniel scared up a loupcervier,
long tailed species of the Canadian
lynx. and chased him up tree. The
barking of the dogs attracted the
four hunters to the tree and there
perched up on a high branch they
could see the piercing glitter in the
eyes of the furious beast. \ shot
brought him to the ground. but he
was apparently uninjured- The
dogs jumped on him but he was able
to beat them off and for several min

to direct a shot at the beast without
striking one of the, dogs. Finally the
animal shook off his pursuers and
started through the woods but well
directed shot put an end to his career
He measured 3 feet. inches long and
weighed As pounds. He was imne-
diately skinned and the hunters eX-
pect to realize a good sum from the
sale of his pelt.

AUSTRIA FACES MANY
SERIOUS PROBLEMS

Vienna, Jan. 1.-THE Austrian re-
public faces it's second year with fore
boding. Both the political and eco
nomic situations are believed here to
have grown daily worse since early
autumn.
The holiday season found Vienna
with a reduced bread ration, virtually
no fats and without fuel The expect
ed supply of coal from Checho-Slovak-
la has not been received and public
utilities were keot partly in operation
only by great effort. and economies.
High hopes had been entertained
from the visit Of Chancellor Renner
to the supreme council at Paris. The
people expected that Austria would
obtain sufficient credit, food, fuel and
raw material for the resumption of
their industrial life Now that the
result of his journey has become
known the newspapers sound note of
despair. One of 6hem remarks that
the decision of the supreme council
that Vorarlberg may not separate
from Austria means that that pro-
vince is condemned to suffer along
n
mary native will have hardly suffic-
lent for food and clothing becomes a
luxury for even the comparatively
well-to-do.
Other provinces are seeking to free
themselves from the burdens of Aus
tria and turn elsewhere for help.
There have been Tumors of an i'm
pending revolt and declaration of in
dependence in Tyrol. 1t is charged in
some quarters that the whole separa-
tion movement in the Austrian pro-
vinces has been inspired BY German
propaganda with a view to establish
= ing a corridor between Germany and
Austria.
While Austria seems unable to OBJ
tain foreign credit for rehabilitation,
there has been much comment here
upon the fact that foreign private
capital has been diligently exploiting
the country. 1t is asserted that the
country has virtually been stripped of
articles deluxe while its remaining
factories are unable to obtain raw ma
terials. According to common report,
foreign interests. principally Italian,
have acquired enormous holdings of
stock in Austrian industrials and
mines.
The government is evenly balanced
between socialists and conservatives
and thus far has been unable to give
birth to constructive legislation look
ing to the solution Of many internal
problems facing the country.

SPECIAL DRY ACT STICKS

Tallahassee, Jan. 6.-The supreme
court today upheld the validity of the
"quart-a-month" act passed by the
special session of the legislature held
in the fall of 1918 The decision came
in the case of w. H. Neisel. plaintiff
in error, VS.. d. w. Moran, as sheriff
OF Dade City, defendant in error, from
Dade county. This case was a habeas
corpus proceeding brought by Mr..
Neisel to test the constitutionality of
chapter 7736. acts of the special ses-
sion of the legislature held in the fall
of 1918, being the act to make effec-
tive the new prohibition article of the
state constitution.
Mr.. Neisel was convicted in Dade
county of having in his possession 81
quarts of whisky. The information
against him also charged the offense
of transporting the 81 quarts of whis-
ky from Jacksonville to Miami. The
case was before the supreme court
upo ma writ of error to the order of
the circuit judge remanding the peti-
ton. to the custody of the sheriff by
virtue of such Tampa
Tribune.

AN ALL-AMERICAN CANAL
Along the California Border Would
Open for Development Thou
sands of Acres of Land
ASSOCIATED PresS)

Washington, Jan. 7.-Construction
o fan All-American canal along the
California border to remove from
Mexico control over the system of the
Imperial Valley, the largest irriga-
ton prosject in the United States, is
contemplated in a bill Representative
Kettner of California plans to intro
duce in the House. 1t viii make pro-
vision fo ropening to purchase or set
tlement by honorably discharged SOL
diers, sailors and marines with war
war service of 100000 acres of public
lands on the east mesa of the valley,
which will be irrigable from the pro-
posed canal.
The bill is a redraft worked out
during the holiday recess by sub
committee of the House committee OH
irrigation of arid lands. which has
had several measures designed to re-
lieve the situation existing in the I'M
perial Valley under consideration.
Hearings before the committee
brought out that the crops of the I'm
perial Valley. which residents said
reach a value of $60, ,0O0, 900 annually,
are dependent upon the uninterrupted
flow of the main canal of the irriga-
ton system which, from the diversion
point on the Colorado river, swings
through Mexican territory for forty
miles before distribution is made to
the American ranchers. The water
users on the Mexican side, where over
10000 0acres are being irrigated, do
noG wish to join in the maintenance of
the main canal and the protective
works in Mexico, according to testi-
mony presented to the congressional
committee.
Relief is sought through the build
ing of a highline canal entirely on
! American soil. making necessary cut
/ through a low range of sandhillsl
which the present canal avoids by the
detour into Mexico. Approximately
400, 900 acres of withdrawn public
lands, similar in quality to that OF
Imperial Valley but lying above the
present Imperial canal system. will
come under the proposed All-Ameri-
car canal, according to reclamation
service estimates. Under the Kettner
bill 100000 acres would be opened to
purchase by war veterans at $1.25 an
acre or, at the discretion of the secre-
tary of the interior, be reserved fol-
opening under such soldier settlement
/ legislation as Congress may enact.

STRIVING TO MAKE
A CLEAN STATE

Jacksonville, Jan. S.-"Your efforts
for a clean state have my hearty en-
dorsement. You can count on me TO
help you carry your fight to a finish" "
wrote a prominent lumberman In the
southern part of the state to DR.. Lorin
A. Greene, acting assistant surgeon
OF the United States Public Health
Service, and head of the venereal dis
ease bureau of the State Board of
Health, the other day.
The lumberman referred to the
anti-venereal disease campaign the
State Board of Health is waging from
end to end of Florida. He declared
that in his position as owner Of mill
employing several hundred men he
had many opportunities of seeing the
effects of vice and venereal disease,
and felt that as citizen of Florida
he wanted to do his part toward
stamping out the grim menace that is
taking its yearly toll of suffering IN
the state.
eff l could have such a pledge
from every man in Florida would
see the end of our fight in sight" DR..
Greene declares. "And it is a pledge
] believe every man would give if he
informed himself of the far-reaching
effects of venereal disease and the
untold suffering it can cause.
"How many men know that syphilis
