ADMIRAL w. s. SIMS: BORN TO TROUBLE

Rear Admiral William s. Sims, U. s. N., appears to be born to trouble as the sparks fly upward. You see. he has the sailors habit of speaking his mind A year or so before the war he was given an official reprimand for publicly stating that American and British battleships would be found side by side in the hour of danger. Just the same, this same sailorman not long afterward was in command of the American fleet that went to the aid of England-and did some admir- able work.
 On his return to this country Ad- mirable Sims wrote a series of articles on the American navy abroad. He fell foul of the Sim Feiners in Ire land and raised another rumpus.
 And now Admiral Sims declines to accept the distinguished service medal awarded him, and practically accuses Secretary of the Navy Dan iels of gross favoritism in making the awards. It appears that Secretary

American history. MT. Wilson is a combination of Achilles and Ajax, sulking in his tent and defying the lightning There are no reasons for his attitude. He offers none to defend it. Except for the timorous and be- wildered loyalty of a group of Demo- cratic senators to the autOcratic No" from the White House, he has no SUD- port.
 The people who were misled by grandiloquent phrases and by unspar- ing criticism of American patriotism are having their eyes opened.
 Europe, which is suffering because we do not make peace, tells us that the Lodge reservations are good in principle. We are told we are within our rights. We are told that the league wants us upon the terms Lodge offers.
 The world is begging for peace. It can not have 1t because an American President who gave Great Britain, France, Italy and Japan everything they wanted will not have peace until the United States gives up rights and powers which make it a free nation and gives them up in spite of the fact that no nation wants the surrender made
 If the senate continues to be par alyzed by this astonishing alteration it will condemn itself as unequal to it's duty to the nation, unable to act in it's proper function when the chief magistrate can not and will not.
 The senate can give the peace which the United States and the rest of the world wants and must have, and then if MT. Wilson interposes himself some thing else will have to be done about it and should be done.-Chicago Tri- bune.

French Barber
Possesses Strange Gift

Paris, France, April zS-What the
artist himself calls a supernatural
manifestation and what one French
writer confesses he does not under
stand at an is reported from the vii
lage Of Carrieres-sous-P oissy. near
Paris. In his dingy little barber shop
an old man named Foreau creates by
direction Of heaven" images OF Jesus
Christ and Jeanne dare. which adorn
all the walls.
Watch me-" said the old barber to
q french Wspaperman who was sent
TO the village TO investigate his pc
culiar powers I take this piece Of
glass. I cover It with a little am
monia salts and some tincture OF
Iodine. Then I place my fingers on
the glass like this and think Of Cod. -
The old man closed his eyes for
several minutes and bowed his head
on his chest Finally he arose, went
TO the doorway and exposed the plate
Of glass TO the sun for several min
utes- When he returned the glass
bore family traced image Of Jesus
One OF his images. OF which he IS
most proud bears a faint resemblance
to Marshal FOch with a girl standing
behind him with both hands resting
on the marshaFs shoulders. The girl.
roreau declares, is Jeanne dare.

AMENDED PUBLIC WAREHOUSE
LAW BOON TO CATTLE MEN

Austin. Texas, April 2S.-One OF the
greatest moves for economy OF the
cotton crop in Texas within the past
few years was the enactment Of an
amended public warehouse law by the
called session Of the legislature, ac-
c0rding TO F. c Weinert- Commission
er OF markets and warehouses Tn
der the amended law a public ware
house Is defined as "a house. building
or room IN which commodities are
stored and protected from damage by
the action Of the elements" The old
law defined public warehouse as a
lot or parcel Of land fnclosed with a
lawful fence, the gates or entrances to
which shall be kept locked securely at
night"
The result OF this open storage IN
der the old law has been a deprecia-
ton OF S10,000,000 in the value OF the
cotton. says Mr.. Weinert- With this
new definition OF a warehouse, It will
be possible for farmers TO store their
crops, knowing that they will not de-
preciate in value and the result viii
be, he says, that the products VIII be
put upon the market over an extend
ed period, as the public demand calls
for them, and the farmer will be able
TO reap the fun value OF his crop.
There Is very little uso in asking
farmers to produce more farm crops

cation methods may be revolutionized
as a result OF experiments conducted
by the army signal corps, described
before the National Academy Of
Scientists by Maj. Gen George A
Squier. chief OF the corps.
Explaining how the army had OBJ
tanned almost perfect results both in
telegraphinE and telephoninE over
bare wires laid in the water and on
and under the ground Cen Squier
predicted expensive heavy insulated
land and submarine cables would be
replaced by single bare wires, over
which several telegraph and tele-
phone messages would be sent at the
same time.
As ocean telegraphy has reached a
limit and submarine telephony is
virtually impossible. Gen Squier said
the hope for Improvement lies in
adoption Of bare wires laid in the
water using high frequency currents
