DRASTIC PENALTIES FAIL TO STOP SPREAD
 OF GAMBLING MANIA

Berlin, Oct. 10.-The government is trying to halt a gambling fever which has been sweeping Germany for many months and which authorities say continues to spread at a surprising rate despite hundreds of arrests, the confiscation of millions of marks, and the Imposition of heavy fines.
 Close upon the heels of the gam bling and speculation mania which appeared among the people of all manipufators, race track touts, buck ct shop proprietors and organizers of get-r.ch-quick betting associations, who, starting with small sums sub scribed by working men and women, shtortly were able to open luxurious gambling houses
 At least a dozen such establish ments operating in Berlin, Hamburg Dresden and smaller provincial towns have been raided and closed by the police.
 Sums as high as 12,Ooo, ,oe0 marks have been found and confiscatd by apparently were catering only to the smaller gamblers The proprietors hlwe been held on charges of fraud. The horse racing season, which has been unusually successful, offered the crooked gamblers and promoters a chance which they promptly took ad- vontage of and it is known billions of marks were waged on alleged tips. Some of these prom oters became widely known as reliable inform arts and made so much money for their clientele that they became pop u1ar idols.
 Following the breaking up of a number of the more prosperous bet ting clubs, the board of governors of the Grunewald race track, near Der lin. which rceives the patronage of hundreds Of thousands of persons during the week, barred three of the | best known jockeys for life and sus- pended others for alleged crooked riding, betting on other horses in races in which they rode and similar offenses. In a final effort to curb the gam bling evil the authorities have, an- nounced they will hold accom- offices the owners or promoters ot houses in which the gamblers are permitted to operate.

UNITARlANS UNIQUE

Detroit, Oct. 10-The Unitarian Church stands unique among the reli- glous movements of the world, Rev. William M. Taylor of Chattanooga. Tenn, declared on the closing day of the General Conference of Unitarian and Other Christian Churches here
 not by offering salvation by regres- sion to an Hellenic perfection of the past nor by the prospect of an apoc- alyptic paradise of the future but by the unification of them both in an world of reality he said.
 l. Never in the history of civilization has humanity sought more earnestly, diligently and desperately for a pf1ito- sophy of life and a religion suffici- ently broad, deep and secure to jus tify men in the loyal commitment of all their faculties and powers than now, said MT. Taylor.
 'tMen and women everywhere are crying for deliverance from the stress and strain of analytic differentiation, specla l1zation and particu1arization and the demand for technical effici- ency which are resulting in fragmen- tarineSs of thinking, frigidity of emo ton, emaScu1atfon of will, detach- ment of affections, split in conscious ness, irritation of temperament, null t1plicity of personality, inward COZ f1ict between motives, strife among peoples, and war between nations. or from the hundrum and monotony of repetition which lead on to a sense of inferiority, somnabuIism, illusion delusion, halIucination and insanity of body and mind; else to apathy to- wards reality resulting in stagnation and death
 Normal people are no longer satis- fled with compartm ental living which makes private life one thing, family life another, religious life another and political life still another; keeps science and philosophy strangers to each other and stimulates anta agonisms between education and religion so that to be both religious and intellf- gent is to practice hypocrisy"
 Unitaria nism comes to this world of strain and stress, according to Mir Taylor, mot with authoritive dogma and academic methods for superposi- ton of extraneous burdens which add to misery of man but with the world of reality applied according to genetic and biologic methods which inspire life and add the joy of dominion.''

ELIGIBLE MEN PARTIAL TO WIDOWS WHO HAVE
 FURNISHED ROOMS
Doctors of Good Physique
 Are The Latest Paris \ Style in F'iances.

Paris, Oct. 10-The woman with an apartment, preferably a furnish ed one, is most in demand as a fan cee, says the Excelsior in it's account of an interview with the mana ageress of a. Paris matrimonial agency charac- terized as one of the better sort. The war widow, if young and agreeable, remarrieS much moro easily than a young girl making her first venture on matrimonial seas.
 A physician between the ages of 30 and 40. well educated and of good physique was called the first prize among men. Parents demanded en- gineers, architects, professors or law yers for their daughters husbands, while the girls themselves, wished above all for an artist but the cupid broker reported this homo genius as extremely rare.
 The fortunes offered with the French women varied from 50,000 to 25o,o00 francs. The directoress proudly stated that she had arrang- ed a marriage between an engineer and a country girl where the bride brought 100000 francs to her hus- band.
 Daughters of rich peasants who have retired and wished to live in town formed the largest clientile of the bureau, in which the women ap- p1icants outnumbered the man two or three to one.

IN THE THEATRES
PLAZA

Science. thrills and beauty abound in the new photo-play "Wet Gold" which is being shown at the Plaza theatre. At the first presentation of this picture by J. Ernest Williamson, who has made a specially of under water motion pictures, 1t is hard to say whether the novelty of seeing men actually at the bottom of the sea was more al1urtng than the struggle within the submarine, or the horse race at Havana, where the beautiful A11ene Burr sees her fathers favorite colt beaten. This event leads the old Southern Colonel to back the hero Ralph Ince-ip search of a hidden treasure that band of pirates had hidden in an old wreck at the bottom of the sea. A pretty love story is also woven through the play. It Is pie ture that has been given massive presentation for a great deal of money has apparently been spent on the va rious scences, and 1t will also be re- menfbered for many months to come because of it's unusuafness.

MEXICAN LAKES DRY UP AND
 FISH ARE LEFT STRANDED

Mexico City, Oct. 1O.-Brethren of Isaak Walton here are worried oyer reports of the vanishing of lakes in the north, ..1e to the-drought, and the aunihiliation of millions of fish.
 It is said that San Pedro lake, in CoahuiIa, has become almost com p1eteIy dry and that the ground which was once the bottom of the lake is filled with dead fish, some in piles, where hundreds had perish ed as the last puddles had dwind1ed to nothing.
 The odor from the dead fish taints the air for miles.
 San Pedro lake has been a famous place for fishing and the. destruction of the fish has been unpleasant news to fishermen.
 Other lakes are reported to be in the same condition as San Pedro lake. Many that are not actually dry are said to be so low that fish can be caught with the hands
