No ono OF several Wall street

but while some dismissed the propo-
sition as utterly absurd" many de-
clared it might prove a solution "ii
It were carried out to its logical con
clusion." A summary Of the view of
the latter group was:
Universal disarmament would not
be sufficient price for cancellation Of
ten billions Of dollars in debts nor
would It normalize industrial and
commercial conditions.
To bring about the economic
stabilizauon sought even more inn
portant than disarmament would be
the requirement for our debtor ma
tions 20 agree on balancing their
budgets by increased taxation and
governmental economy. d.
In the event such a move were
undertaken. the United States would
have to supervise the economic and
financial policies OF some Of the
debtor nations through special COM
missions.
one banker declared that the plan
lacked merit because it did not touch
on the "sore spots of the world

GIVES UP HIS ROYAL RIGHTS
Zulu Noble, Now Bootblack in Cali
fornia, Discards Ancient Privi-
lege to Become Citizen.

"It is my intention to reIounce for
ever all allegiance and fidelity to any
foreign prince, potentate, state or SOY
ereignty, and particularly to King Bogo
of Zululand, South Africa"
If you should ever happen to meet,
as you go to and fro in the earth and
walk up and down in it, a very dark
kind of very dark conference.-the
large round holes in the upper parts
of his ears, try to remember what Ii
is that plain, ordinary American
citizen is expected to do when he I'M
expectedly meets up with one Of the
royal family of Zululand, observes the
New York SUM-
For those holes in. the upper part of
the ears-the upper part, mind you
are enc of the royal prerogatiyes in
King Bogo's realm. The dark-meated
clansmen of the plain plug variety are
allowed to bore holes only in the low
er portions of their ears.
But there is one member of the
royal family of Zululand who will take
no more pride in having large round
holes in his hearing apparatus. His
name is Musa, or "Umsa" Bryan, and
his declaration, which stands at the
head of this item, was made the other
day before Naturalization Clerk ]. j.
Kingston Of Oakland, Cal.
Musa Bryan says he IS son of
Fundy Bryan, once a king of the
Zulus, and nephew of King Bogo,
the present ruler He left Zanzibar,
South Africa, in 1894, when he was
fifteen years old, and came to Oak
land, where he became prize fighter,
and is now working as bootblack.
HI, is married and proudly boasts that
his wife. Louisa, was born in Texas.
King Bogo of Zululand has lost
subject, and Uncle Sam has gained
one, slightly damaged, it's true, but
one who aims to shine.

REMEMBERED FATE OF BABY
Small Wonder That Winfred Feared
for the Health of the Precious
Neighborhood Newcomer.

When the stork arrived and left
Betty Lou on the doorstep of the Jones
family, she was at once the wonder
and delight of the entire neighborhoOd
OF children.
And why not? She was the first
baby that had happened in the COM
munity for eight long years! Louise,
being the last, and now little old
woman, was among the first to call
and pay her respects to the new baby
When Betty Lou had reached the
sedate age of three weeks, she was
wont to decline for hours in her brand
new buggy on the front porch Of her
home. This was quite a subject of
gossip among the children and in some
eases caused quite little comment.
1t is needless to say that the children
were never very far away from the
Jones porch, and one day Winifred
and Louise were heard discussing the
matter in whispers and with much ami
nation.
Winifred impaired TO Louise in
tones of great solemnity the terrible
tale of how she once knew a teeny-
weeny baby that had everything "just
lovely" but when it was only two
weeks old it "tOok ammonia and died
of too much ir."--Indianapolis News.

Radio Waves to Mars.

The question has often been raised
as TO whether it will ever be possible
to communicate by wireless with the
inhabitants of other planets. The
wireless waves in the ether 20 on for
ever, so there will be no reason why
people cannot communicate with other
planets if the inhabitants have the
proper receiving apparatus. Some or
the planets, however, are so far away
that electric wave. travelling at
speed of 1O6,000,OO0 miles per second
would take several thousand years to
reach them. There is very little
chance of these remote planets hear
ing the nightly radio concerts sent out
from the wireless test station at the
East Pittsburgh works of the West
inghouse Electric and Manufacturing
company. They are now known TO
several thousand amateurs all over
the United States and having a wave
length of $50 meters are readily
picked up.

Lilies Used for Food.

Growing water lilies for food is
new idea in America, though it has
been practiced on large scale for
centuries in the Orient. Scientists
lately have been making a study of
the food value of the lotus lily, the
big yellow water lily found in many
lakes, ponds and rivers in the eastern
and middle western United States.
This lily was highly priced as food
by the American Indians, just as its
pink cousin, the lotus of China, India
and Egypt, is a favorite food there.
Peeled and boiled, the American wa
ter lily is as farinaceous and whole
some as a potato and delicious TO the
taste.
Propagation of the American lotus
is not difficult, declare scientists, and
there are numerous ponds and lakes
in nearly every state, remarks an eX-
\change, whose waters are suited to the
profitable culture Of the lotus lily.

TrackIess Trolley Car.

The wireless trolley car has not yet
arrived, but the trackless trolley car
is here, and in successful operation.
II is the invention of a Viennese, Lud-
wig Stoll, and no less than six differ
ent lines are operating in the cities of
what was formerly Austria-Hungary.
> flexible cable instead of rigid pole
conducts the current to the car, and
the vehicle can thus move as far as
GA feet to one side Of the wire itself,
and accommodate itself to any condi-
ton of traffic. The current is returned
through a negative wire which runs
beside the positive wire, and is SINH
Iarly connected with the car. Well
built. smooth roads are required; Civ
en- these, the running Of the cars is
said to be very successful.
