NEW POSSIBILITIES IN SIBERIA ARE
 APPARENTLY NEAR
Anti -BoIshevik Leader Sem enoff Preparing to Attack Provisional Government
 in vladivostok
By Associated Press

Picking, July 3.--Hostilities be- tween the followers of General se- menoff, anti boshevill deader in eastern Siberia, and General Marlsu- loff, head of the provisional govern ment in Vladivostok, are imminent, it is indicated in dispatches received. Semenoff is at Grodekova. near the Manchurian. frontier, Ii which city he retired after having been refused admittance to yladivostok He was accompanied to Grodekova by Jap anese convoy, and 1t is said that many of his followers who attempt to leave vladivostok and follow him were arrested by the provisional government there.
 A detachment of Semenoffs troops is said to be advancing from Inman toward vladivostok and MerkulRf is reported to be concentrating troops in the outskirts of the city.
 Merkuloff is declared to be all most as unpopular as Semenoff be- cause of his acts of repression and the confiscation of goods by his men. There is a growing demand for the reconvocation of the peoples assem- bly which was dissolved by Merku- loff.
 Intercepted telegrams from Gem eral Tachibana commander of the Ia y,a frr <,,.tt ( t&.sa province, to the war office in Tokio are said to have declared that con sular opposition to Semenoff, fric- ton between Semenoff and General Merkuloff and the failure of the n- vasion of southern Siberia by Gem eral Baron n[Stefnberg have led to an alteration of Japanese plans and forced "conciliatory at titude" toward the government of the far eastern republic at chila.
 Conspiracy Reported
 Tokio. July 3.--Discovery of a conspiracy among followers of Gen eral Semenoff, the anti -boishevik leader in Siberia, to overthrow the Merkuloff government in Vladivos- tok is reported in newspaper dis patches from that city. Twenty three persons, including three offi- cers, have been arrested in connec- ton with the alleged plot.
 Arrest Threatened

 The action is interpreted to mean that the Japanese will not permit Semenoff to inaugurate an armed local revolution.

about Insurance

wish to say to my friends and
policy holders and prospective pat
rons that there is no question
about the quality of Insurance put
out IN my Office. All companies
have been tried and tested for
years, and have many living and
enthusiastic policy holders. Many
policy holders have had losses and
been paid by company, Did you
ever hear of any one who was not
satisfied, in case of loss? Some
agents sell experimental policies
cheap but cannot show forty years.
business record and no lawsuits
or dissatisfaction. Just at this
time the company is extending
payment of notes coming due to
policy holders who have never be-
fore asked extra time on their
notes; and company pays losses in
cash, and no. discount for cash.
Talk about it not taking money to
run insurance business! 1t takes
lots OF money. Over $4,000 worth

Ma and Her Check Book

u =
Ma has a dandy little book that's
4 full Of narrow Slips
An when she wants to pay a bill a
page from it she rips;
She just writes in the dollars and
the cents and signs her name,
An that's as good as money though
it doesn't look the same.
When she wants another bonnet or
some feathers for her neck,
She promptly goes and gets 'em,
an she writes another check.
! don't just understand it, but l
knows she sputters when
Pa says to her at supper: "Well!
You're overdrawn again"
Mas not a business woman, she is
much too kind Of heart
To squabble over pennies or to
play selfish part,
An when someone asks for money
she's not one to stop and think
OF o little piece of paper an the
cost of pen an ink.
She just tells him very sweetly il
he'll only wait a bit
An be seated in the parlor, she
will write check for it.
|She can write one out for twenty
just as easily as ten,
An forgets that Pa may grumble
"Well, you're overdrawn againY
Pa says it looks as though he'll
have to start in workin' nights
To gather in the money for the
checks that mother writes.
He says that every morning wher
he's summoned to the phone,
He's afraid the bank is callirg to
make mothers shortage known
He tells his friends if ever anything
our fortune wrecks
They can trace it to the moment
mother started writing checks
He's got so that he trembles wher
he sees her fountain pen,
And he mutters: DO be careful
You'll be overdrawn again!"
