perse During Fire

Services in Warshauer Synagogue,

last night by detonation in the base

gan to seep through the floor and
walls.
Max Himmel, of 887 Hunts Point

no immediate danger, it would be

There were about 400 persons in the
building, and they walked out without
confusion. The firemen extinguished ID
the flames before they had gained
headway. The fire is believed to have
been caused by defective insulation

Police Limit Holy Rolling
Must Stop at 9 p. NJ, Chief of
Waukegan Orders
Special Dispatch to The Tribur


WAUKEGAN, ILL.,, Aug. 2.-"No more
Holy Rolling in Waukegan after 9
p. M" was the order issued to-day by
Peter McDermott, chief of police. The
Pentecostal Church was stoned last night
and one of the missiles went through the
" ndow of a neighbor, JAMS Jacobsen,
the police reported. This church has
been complained of as a place where
the religious services sounded more
ike riot. 1t is patronized by whites.
The Holy Roller church conducted by
negroes also has been the cause of
complaint to the police, it being
charged that the "rolling' continued
far into the night upon many occasions
The noises must cease at 9 p. M
the chief declared, cor arrests will be
made, although we dislike to put the
soft pedal on religious meetings."

In Budapest Minister of Finance Kali
lay summo oned the countrys most i'm

cuss ways and means for the preven-
tion of further depreciation in Hun

In the bankers opinion the panic
stricken public is contributing to the
fall of the crown by endeavoring to ex-
change Hungarian money into foreign
currency. They, however, dssuaded
the government from prohibiting free
trade on foreign exchange. The Fl
nance Minister asked the bankers to
refuse loans to spectators in ex-
change, and proposed to bring under
the supervision of the big banks the
transactions of 500 smaller nstitu-

London, will not be favored either by
Republicans or Democrats in Congress-
according TO the tone of comment
about the Senate to-day, fnasmuch
as the funding act specifically forbids
the cancellation of any of the ndebt-
edness, II would require action Of Con-
gress to permit the debt or any part
of 1t to be cancelled.
This fact was pointed out to-day by
Senator Hitchcock, former chairman Of
the Foreign Relations Committee. He
said that in view of the funding meas
ure specific authorization of Congress
was required before there could. be
any cancellation.
The present temper of Senators
seems TO be not to give any serious
consideration to legislation of this sort.
Moreover, there is strong sentiment
among both Republican and Democra-
tic leaders in favor of using proceeds
from the foreign debt to finance the
bonus measure.
Senator Moses, of New Hampshire.
Republican, said:
at is a foolish proposition. The
political party that would advocate it
would not live over night. Public SEN
timent in this country would not stand
for cancellation"
"We never will cancel our war
debts" said Senator McCumber, chair
man of the Finance Committee. Each
nation must meet its own obligations
Great Britain is morally bound to pay
her debts to us regardless of the coll
lection of debts owed to her. The col
lection of her debts is her problem,
not ours. There is strong sentiment
throughout the country that our war
loans be collected as soon as possible"
Senator Watson, of Indiana, Repub-
lican, said:
This country is opposed to eancella-
tion of the war debts"
"It will be a long time" said Sena-
tor Hitchcock, of Nebraska, before
Congress authorizes the cancellation
Of the war debt. 1t never will author
ize it unless the American people are
convinced there is no other way to save
the situatio If they see American
trade destroyed and American business
hurt and all other efforts to restore
stable conditions fail, then they might
consider it."
In some quarters the view was ex-
pressed that the pronouncement of the
British government on the inter-Allied
debt was aimed rather at France than
at the United States. 1t was pointed
out that Lloyd George is to see Poin-
care next week and that he will then
seek to bring France to terms on sew
eral propositions. One of these is the
French fortifications at Tangier, which
are felt by the British to be menacing
to Gibraltar. AS paving the way for
this conference, Lloyd George, accord
ing to this view, is holding out to the
French the prospect of their debt to
Great Britain being cancelled

Merit System.
The progressive merit system is
expected to be facilitated by the
form of prison architecture adopted
in the new penitentiary.
Under plans, the eight prison
houses, two of which are complet-
ed will be built in a circle, with
concrete corridors leading to a CEN
trail dining hall. The chapel is set
off to one side of the cell circle,
with a special cell house for soli-
tary confinement standing opposite.
Workshops, warehouses, power
houses and wells, and the prison
laundry will be situated at the
north end of the huge enclosure.
The isolation hospital is at the
southern end of the yard. Outside
the walls, to the south, all admin
istration buildings and dormitories
for employees will be constructed.
All buildings will be connected
by concrete corridors
Beside the two cell houses, sew
eral wells, one cold storage ware
house, and the special cell house
which are complete, many of the
other buildings are under compile
ton. These include the third series
Of eight large cell houses, the din
ing hall, the bakery, the kitchen,
several of the warehouses, some OF
the corridors, some of the work
shops, and smaller buildings. Dur
ing the construction of the main
dining room, one of the warehouses
is used.
When the full series of eight cell
houses is complete, it is the plan
of the prison authorities in their
Illinois idea" to have each house
represent a degree or class. and
prisoners will be advanced in To-
cation with their advancement in
class.
The building provides an ar
rangement, complete in itself for
the segregation of the different
classes of grades of prisoners
! whereby it is possible to house,
feed, work and allow recreation to
each grade or class by itself com
pletely as though each were con-
fined in separate institution.

BOY
SCOUTS
II Fl
Conducted by National Council of the Boy
Scouts OF America.)
TWELVE YEARS OF SCOUTING

In a recent issue of the Survey
Chief Scout Executive West writes Of
his twelve years experience as a lead
er Of boys. Among other things, he
mentioned the fact that what seems
most remarkable In scouting Is the re-
sponslveness of the boys themselves,
their power and willingness to assume
responsibility and to live up to the
obligations of the scout oath and law.
"When we said that a first-class
scout must know what to do in case of
fire." he writes. probably none Of us
remotely imagined that during one
year 5,77S scouts would qualify In fire.
manshlp; that in fifty or more cities
scout troops would be regularly au-
thorized aides to the local fire depart
ments; that In one state alOne-Penn-
sylvanla-scouts would be cited for
destruction by fire over a million dol
lars worth of valuable timber. Nor
could we in any way have visualized
the large number of striking individual
instances where scouts or groups of
scouts have risen voluntarily to meet
the emergency of the hour In fighting
fire, resruing persons from burning
buildings, rendering first aid to per-
sons overcome by fumes of smoke, be-
sides their signal services in helping
prevent fire by conducting city clean
ups, distributing prevention litera-
ture and reporting fire hazards and
violations of fire laws.
IL want particularly to stress that
word cooperative; for, contrary to the
ideas of those who do not fully COM
prehend scouting and its motives, the
movement Is dedicated to cooperation
with all other forces working for pub
lie betterment. 1t has no wish to SUI
persede the work of church, or school,
or home, or Of any social service
agency. 1t merely places, its splendid
boy program, its organized and
trained power for service, It's large and
enthusiastic active membership at the
disposal of the community and the
nation. to help wherever help Is need
ed or desired.
1--WE have learned in our twelve
years of experience with boys that
there is no boy problem that terrible
bugaboo which has frightened the
world so long. Our boys, given half
chance, will, In nine cases out of ten,
rise to whatever we expect Of them;
nay, go beyond what we expect OF
them, IL only we men will In turn do
our duty-provide for them the oppor-
tunity for clean, happy useful, healthy
life, which Is their birthright as young
Americans"

Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble and Never
Suspect It
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected.

Judging from reports from druggists
who are constantly in direct touch with
the public, there is one preparation that
has been very successful in overcoming
these conditions. The mild and healing
influence of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root is
soon realized. 1t stands the highest for
its remarkable record of success.
An examining physician for one of the
prominent Life Insurance Companies. in
an interview on the subject, made the as
tonishing statement that one reason why
SO many applicants for insurance are re-
jected is because kidney trouble is SO
common to the American people, and the
large majority of those whose applica-
tions are declined do not even suspect
that they have the disease.
DIR. kilmer's Swamp Root is on sale
at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes,
medium and large. However, If you wish
first to test this great preparation send
ten cents to DIR. Kilmer Il Co., Bingham
ton, N. y, for a sample bottle. When
writing be sure and mention this paper.
