and against a general demurrer filed
by the Chicago Tribune against the
city of Chicago's suit for $4,000, 900
libel damages were heard beofre
Judge Harry NJ Fisher in circuit court

counsel for the newspaper, announced
that he would finish this morning his
plea 10 have the demurrer sustained.
The answer of the city was in the
hands of Chester Cleveland, special
counsel.
Mr.. Kirkland addressed himself to-
day to technical considerations Of the
right of municipality TO sue for
libel He took the ground that since
the city possesses no trade, business
or other inherent earning power it
could not suffer damage lin the manner
set forth in the declaration.
He also took up the accusation that
publication in the Tribune of aIlega-
lions that the city was in financial
straits had affected adversely the mar
ket for its bonds. He maintained that
the safeguard of the law governing
bond issues were such that their value
could not he so damaged.

GARDNER AND
GUILFORD MEET
Will Play Off To-day for

Championship
GARDNER WON FROM
WILLIE HUNTER, "a
While Guilford Found
Chick Evans Sadly Off
His Game

st. Louis, Sept. 24.-Robert Gardner
of Chicago, twice holder of the Amerl-
can amateur golf title and runner up
in the British amateur championship,
and Jesse Guilford, a Boston golfer,
who has been trying for the premier
golf honors for ten years or more, to-
day played the final round of 80 holes
for the national championship at the
St. Louis Country club, having yester-
day won their semi-tinal matches in
a driving rain.
Gardner defeated Willie Hunter 3
and 4, keeping the Briton down all the
way after the fifth hole. He out played
Hunter from the tee and through the
green all the time and, after the first
few holes, putted as well or better.
Hunter showed his mastery of the run
up shot, but it was used mostly in get
ting a half where the loss of hole
seemed imminent.
Guilford won his place in the final
by defeating the present champion,
Chick Evans, 7 and 5. Finding Evans
sadly off his game, especially on the
greens, the Bostonian played good
enough golf to win over better vari-
ETY. than Evans displayed yesterday
Guilford made only two errors, topping
his brassie to creek on the ninth, and
heeling his mashie approach out of
bounds on the Goth hole.
To-day's contestants have the repu-
tation of being the longest drivers in
the United States if not the longest in
the world.

And Backache Stopped After a Short
Treatment with "FRUIT .A.TIVES"

Moretown, Vermont, March 9th 1918.
81 am warranted in having the
strongest faith in 'Fruit-a-tives' after
receiving such wonderful benefits
from them. Foryears, I was sufferer
with Kidney and Liver Complaints.
My back ached; my liver was
sluggish and my whole system
seemed out of order.
'Fruit-a-tives' was the only remedy
to help me. They strengthened the
kidneys, made my bowels move
regularly and freed me of all the
distress caused from the kidney
trouble, constipation and indigestion.
A few weeks treatment with
'Fruit-a.tives' made me feel as if I
had new lease on life, and am glad
to make known the great value Of
these Fruit Liver Tablets.

English Statemar1
Also a Naturalist
(By Associated Press)

Berwick on Tweed, Eng. - Viscount
Grey of Fallodon, formerly Sir Ed
ward Grey, wartime secretary Of the
foreign Office, who was temporary
British ambassador in the United
States in 1919, and who has just re
Gently re-entered the political arena,
is a naturalist as well as statesman.
In an address before the Berwickshire
Naturalist association he gave an ac-
count Of his personal observation OF
the wild fowl which he has reared at
~Fallodon for the last 81 years.
He said that the Carolina of North
American wood ducks were monogram
GUS and domestic life was highly de-
veioped among them.
Lord Grey was unable to confirm
the statement that wild geese paired
for life and that, on the death Of one,
the survivor took no other mate, but
he called to mind remarkable case
of the kind with pair Of red-crested
prochard ducks.
The drake kept with his mate until
she had to be killed after meeting
with an injury. 1t was expected that
he would then mate with another fe-
male Of the same kind but he ignored
her and after two or three weeks rest
lessness he flew off and was not
seen again.
at was as if he had gone off on an
endless search to find the mate he had
lost" remarked Lord Grey.

Not Much Candy
for Russ Children
(By Associated Press. }

Petrograd-Christmas will bring lit
tie candy or other sweets to Russian
children. In fact a great percentage
Of them will not even have enough
black bread, much less ginger cookies
and chocolate cellars.
Russia's sugar crop this year amount
ed to only slightly more than 200,-
100000 pounds, for 10000 900 persons
less than two pounds for each per-
son. And the Importation of sugar is
practically nil.
These figures are from the official
reports of the government. The Rus
sian pound is only IL ounces, or one
fourth less than the American pound.
Consequently the sugar crop for this
year is not much in excess of 100000
600 American pounds,
In pre-war days Russia used to ex-
port about as much sugar as it now
produces, and it's annual production
was over twenty times what it is to-
day. The population was about $780,
100000 before Poland, Finland, the
Baltic states, Georgia, Armenia, and
part sof Siberia were created into new
governments. So in pre-war days
there was per capita consumption
of over twenty Russian pounds of
sugar annually.

CORONER SEEKS
CAUSE OF DEATH
George Mattern Dies at
Wilmot After Siege of
Strange Illness.
WELL KNOWN CITIZEN

An inquest into the nature of the
illness which caused the death of
George Jacob Mattern, aged 40, well
known resident of the village of Will
mot. who died on Thursday evening,
was started this morning by Coroner
T. T. Parker. The deceased had been
failing in health for several wesks but
had not been under the care Of regu-
lar physician. For this reason it was
necessary for an inquest to be made
into the cause of the death in order
that a proper death certificate might
be filed in the records Of the case.
The deceased several weeks ago was
taken with an illness similar to pneu-
monia but was said not to have had 3
fever, one of the necessary symptoms
for q diagnosis of this disease. He
was not believed to be seriously i'll
and died on Thursday evening before
medical care reached his bedside.
Aided Search for Drowned.
One report from the village of Will
mot declares that the mans illness had
been augmented by a heavy cold con-
tracted several weeks ago during the
excitement in the village of Nilmot as
result Of the drowning of Harry
Beck. Since that relapse the deceased
had grown steadily worse, according to
reports.
George Jacob Mattern was born in
the town of Paris, September IS, 1881,
the daughter, of the late Mr.. and Mrs
William Mattern, pioneer residents of
the county. He had lived in Kenosha
county the greater part of his life,
having been for many years in the en-
ploy of one of the ice companies at
Silverlake. Surviving him are broth
err, William Mattern of Wilmot, and
five sisters, Mrs. S. G. Curry of Evans
ton, Mrs. F. J. Smith of Waukegan.
Mrs. G. Paulsen of Chicago, Mrs. J. C
Dahl of Mellen, Wis, and Miss Marie
Mattern, teacher at Somers.
The funeral services will be held or
Sunday afternoon at the home in Will
mot, the Rev. Rosemurgy Of Burlington
officiating. Interment will be made in
the family plot in the Wilmot GENE
terry.
Because Of this inquest it was
found necessary to postpone the in
quest into the death of John Neu-
bauer which was to have been held in
the Municipal Court at ten o'clock this
morning, to determine whether a cor
oner's jury would hold that Neubauer
had died a suicide or had been shot
by another. The continuance of the
inquest into the death of John Clint
off. which was to be heard this after
noon, was also postponed. Both Of
these hearings are now to be held on
next Saturday at ten o'clock in the
morning and one thirty o'clock in the
afternoon, respectively.

Knitting Wave is
Sweeping Country
icy Associated Pressl

Philadelphia - The knitting wave
among women and girls has set the
spindles and yarn mills in every Sec
ton of the city working day and night
Many spinners have orders to keep
them busy for some time to come AS
a result thousands Of workers will
not have to worry about the coming
winter.
But on top Of this an appeal Of the
Red Cross to the knitters to take up
again the needle to make sweaters,
comforters, Jackets and pulse warm
ers for distribution to the needy will
cause a demand for millions more
pounds of wooden yarns. This holds
true not for Philadelphia alone, but
also all over the United States.
And while the cost of knitting is
small to each person in the aggregate
it means millions. And as long as the
demand continues workers will be kept
busy at the mills.

Counteracting Printers Poison.

There is something in printers ink
which poisons those who have to work
in it and the Public Health Service has
been conducting some experiments
with the view of overcoming it. The
result of these experiments is a recon-
mendation that mixture of lanolin
and olive oil, half and half, be kept in
the washroom where printers change
their clothes. Before entering the
pressrooms each worker should be re-
quired to rub the stuff we'll into the
pores of hands and arms. At the end
of each shift he should remove the
ink with mixture of soap and saw
dust, which will accomplish the OBJ
ject readily and without injury to the
