The Australian federal parliament has ap-
pointed a committee with authority to in
vestigate and approve a plan for the estab-
lishment of direct wireless communication
between Great Britain and Australia.
Interest in the undertaking has been
stimulated by the facility with which Aus
tralian stations received President Hard
ings ''round-the-world'' wireless message
and by the fact that press associations re-
ceived without relay messages sent from
Carnarvon, Wales, last week.

Ohio last month the New Hampshire board
of publicity started a campaign designed to
persuade Ohians to immigrate to New Hamp-

The situation of the numerous Spanish
prisoners in the hands of the Moors is caus-
ing much anxiety to their relatives, reports

tribes. Many of these were subsequently

give order for all prisoners to be concen-
trated at Anual This order was not every
where obeyed. Since the Spanish advance
began many prisoners have been coming in
twos and threes. The political bureau has
also been busy, and many prisoners have
been rescued through the good offices of
friendly Moors.

Annual Camp 745 men and 40 w-men and
children, while at Axdir within view of the

Booze at Zion
Right in the heart of Zion, ILL.,, has been
found an abiding place of the demon rum
| and great excitement prevails.
Neighbors complained to the Zion police
that certain queer doings had been noticed
| at the home of Mr.. and Mrs. William Doar.
The chief of police pinned on his big tin star,
and, thanked by his trusty deputies, swoop-
ed down upon the house. After painstak-
ing search the willy chief finally lifted the
top of duo-fold couch, and there, nesting
| securely in the big orifice, were thirty-two
quarts of homemade hootch, seventeen bot
ties of beer, quart of 'White Mule" two
one-gallon crooks of beer and two-ga1lon
jug of stuff that might be used successfully
as varnish remover.
The vile hoard was removed to the station
house and later destroyed, and the holy city
is redolent with the pungency Of antiseltics
and other methods taken by the authorities
