SETTLING WITH NORWAY.

When this country entered the war t was careful to look to it's welfare con cerning ships. It was in need of them for it's own use and tt was desirous of keeping all such out of the hands of the enemy. or those who were involved in trade with the enemy. Norway was one of those neutrals that was engaged in such trade and there were Norwegian in terests that were having vessels con structed in this country at the time Of cur entrance. These vessels were seiz- ed, with the expectation of course that they would be paid for, but in the ma.- ter of reaching a basis of settlement it was impossible to agree. The result was that it was submitted to The Hague tribunal for arbitration.
 There have been certain phases of that arbitration to which this country has taken exception. Possibly for that reason it is not more reconciled to th5 award that has been made, but by the decision which the tribunal has render ed neither side obtained just What) il contended for.
 The amount awarded to the Nor wegian shipping interests totals s12,eoo, 900. Norway asked for more with com pound interest while this country be lieved that a full adjustment of thF matter did not warrant such a largi sum. It was of course for the purpos, of reaching fair settlement that aro; tration was resorted to and for that req son it is probable that the award vii be paid. That at least is what is ex pected when the solution of dispute i attempted in such a manner. Thi country hasn't attempted to shirk it's re sponsEbility or just debt. The aim ha been to decide what that was and fo that reason there can be no surprise a the attitude of the shipping board in be ing disposed to accept the award as f nal.

That dingyfl

Most people who brush teeth in old ways have 6lm-coated teeth. A yiscous film clings to the teeth, enters creWces and stays. That film becomes discoIcssd, paricu- larly with men who smoke. Then 1t forms dingy coats Tartar is based on film.

SIMS, RErEBEsrENr.

When Admiral Sims rearhsd the age that calls for retirement it did not mean that he vas by any means na- oapacita4ed. Like many other naval and army officers it found him in excellent mental and physical condition and the lpphcztion of the rule means the de ps7ment loses the services of q highly valuable officer.
 Nevertheless it is necessary to have such rules and to follow them for the sake of making room for and developing he younger men. It is by such limita- hon of tbe period of service that stag nation is avoided. Old men are not per mitted to clog the way for those below even though in some instances it would be to the advantage of the department were some of the old men who react he retirement age permitted to remain b the active service.
 Ret1remept upon reaching the age lin t doesn't, however, mean that the de partment has lost the services of noted or valued officials. They retire from active service but they remain in thu pay of the government and they are sub feet to call if occasion arises that re unres them. This was done in the lat var and it is done at other times. s that while Admiral Sims has complete; bis active service it Is possible for tn department to draft him if such shoult bs deemed necessary. Like a loyal na val ohicer he Is s1bject to call.

PARTY FEELING
HIGH IN BRITISH
POLITICAL CRISIS

London, Mar =. O}y y. 1)-Illc
political situation has undergone no
change today. The prime minister
was we'll cnought 10 preside over the
cabinet council, but not sufficiently
recovered to start for Criccieth to-
morrow. His departure has been de-
Gcrrcd until Friday.
Strong party feeling still exists it
was shown today by two incidents.
The first was a fierce encounter te-
tween Lord Carson tic former Ulster
unionist leader. and Lord High Chan
ccllOr Birkenhead, in the House of
Lords. Lord Carson tainted the gov
crnmcnt with having left its former
faithful servants, the Irish constab-
ulary. TO the tender mercies OF those
who had been formerly treated as reb-
els and murdcrers, which he charac-
tclized as ''the most ab5ect humila-
ton for any country that had ever
been witnessed" His speech was
full of bitter reproaChcs of the gov
crnmcnt's Irish polioy'.
Lord Birkenhcad warmly defended
the government. arguing that the
oFtl w iicIliiilS litdioIl|F VI tilt
people were behind the treaty and
that this would g shown if the gov
crnment should still be driven to as
certain from the country whether it
was right or wrong in the policy it
had adopted. He reiterated the con-
viction that public opinion in ireland
was consolidating itself behind the
provisional government, and conClud-
cd by telling Lord Carson that the
taunts he employed were unworthy
of the great position lie filled.
The second incident relates to the
publication of the correspondence be-
tween Austen Chamberlain and Sir
Alexander Leith. chairman of the
central committee of the nationalist
unionist association. The cores
rondcnce, is interesting as showing
that there is still great friction be-
tween the government and the union
ist party concerning the tactics to be
observed at the elections, Leith trying
to hold Chamberlain 20 an undertake
ing that the coalition unionists and
liberals shall go to the polls indipend-
emily, and Chamberlain appealing
to Leith to use his great official and
personal influence "to prevent split,
which is threatening not only between
the allies but in the ranks of our own
party"

Rivers in N. H.

Manchester, N H., March S-The
rivers in the northern part OF the

At Wilton, today, the Souhegan
river, which is the highest ever
known, took out railroad bridge

not possible to repair the bridge for

At Franconia. the Gale river has
overflowed it's banks, and the ice
came down to the bridge in town,
forming a big jam. This set the
water back until it overiloWed two
streets and the Dow academy
ground. 1t was necessary to break
the jam by blasting.
At Lincoln, three paper mills have
been obliged to close down. owing to
the river rising suddenly and filling
the mills with sticks and stones. The
shut down has thrown out all the
employees.

The Ashuelot river at Keene and
all streams flowing into that river
have overflowed their banks. filling
the meadows, causing freshet on
highways and roads. Many cellars
in Keene have been flooded. The ice
has broken up in several OF the
streams in Cheshire county, causing
the water to set back.
At Claremont. the washout has
caused much damage by filling cell
lars.
At Franklin, the Winnipcsaukee
river is running bankfull. The water
in the PemkeWassct river is running
two feet over EastmanS Falls dam.
Since Saturday, 2.7S inches of rain
has fallen in this sector.

Antigonish Ghost
Is a Bit Timid
with Strangers About

Caledonia Mills, N. S., March S.
Antigonish today had two mysteries
the famous ghost whose uncanny
pranks drove Alex Mcdonald and his
family from their comfortable farm
and DR.. Walter Franklin Prince, Amer
lcan scientist who came here to bait
the eerie one in his lair.
The difference between the two was
one of degree only. The ghost kept
out of sight entirely. and the ply
sician. though visible as he scurrjed
here and there proved almost as much
of problem for the members of the
party of spook takers.
BY way of beginning the day right,
DR.. Prince announced this morning
that his first night in the haunted
house had passed. uneventfully. But,
working on the logician's axiom that
no amount of negative observations
prove the non-eXistence of the object
of scientific study. he refused to take
this to mean that there was no ghost.
His first care of the day was for
the strange contrivance of string and
little bells. constituting the ghost trap
with which he surrounded himself last
night. This he carefully wound up,
examined and tucked away into a case
with a Thoughtful air.
But if his magic bells told him any
thing he was distinclined to make con-
fldants of the newspaper men and 9TH
ers who make up his entohiage. All
day he remained inscrutablc.
The scientists visitors wore a dis
appointed air. They, mostly provin-
cials, appeared annoyed that the
spoois had not seen fit to live up to
the prospectus that was the basis of
DR.. Princes journey. They all agreed,
however, that a great number of
strange people were distasteful to
ghosts in this part of the country and
indicated that the ghost probably
would take hand in the battle OF
wits as soon as he became used to the
new faces
Others-but these were facetious
people-suggested that the ghost was
unable to transport fireworks such as
started strange blazes among Mac
lytlldlu - tutCtS, oiI dthpuil VI VIC
rainy weather.
After his mornings investigation
DR.. Prince sought quarters in a farm
house about two miles away anil
started work on his report Of the pro-
ccedings thus far.
According to the housewife. he was
working all the afternoon at pro-
digious rate as if he had something
momentous to set down or was making
his will before he defied the spbokS
another night.
Today Macdonald was asked to
bring his family back to the house
but he would make no decision until
he had talked the matter over with
his wife. DR.. Prince indicated he was
in no hurry, saying he preferred to
spend another night in the house with
out Mary Ellen and her foster-parents,
and that if nothing happened then he
would use his best eloquence to per-
suade the women to return.
