HOUSTON SHRINERS
TO COME BY WATER

Plans for travelling to the Mystic
Shrine Imperial Council session here
next June have been supplemented by
Arabia Temple, of Houston. Tex,
which is arranging to send a repre-
sentation OF 200 members. including
band and patrol, to Washington by
water. This information was received
by the Shrine Convention headquar-
tiers here in a letter from George H.
Pruter, potentate of Arabia Temple
The ship which will carry the Shrin-
ers will encircle the Gulf of Mexico,
and touch at Havana, Cuba, for a
short stay. 1t will then proceed up
the Atlantic Coast to the Potomac
River. Anchoring as near to Wash
ington as possible. the ship will be
useed as hotel for Its passengers
during its stop here.
The innovation and suggestion made
by Arabia Temple was met with en-
thusiasm at the Shrine committee
headquarters in the Homer Building,
inasmuch as 1t provides a method for
relieving the prospective congestion of
the railroads and also assures good
housing accommodations, which are
rapidly becoming scarce. It is thought
that many other temples will make
use Of this idea.

CUSTOMS SLEUTHS
BARECANE FLASKS
Tourists no Longer Able to
Use Them to Smuggle
Booze.

PARIS. Oct. "a surprising
number Of hollow walking sticks,
suitable for the secret transporta-
tion OF liquids, are being purchas I'd
in Paris by American tourists.
I'VE have just discovered that the
manufacturer of these canes has
sold more than 5000 this spring"
said an American customs service
agent. He used to make hollow
canes containing rapiers or rife bar
rels. but his new line of canes for
American tourists is keeping his
factory so busy that he has aban-
doned his old lines.
The whisky canes are so heavy
that they have a capacity of one
pint. The liquor Is contained in a
mstal bottle. which fits inside the
cane. The exterior finish of the
cane Is so natural that one would
with liquor.
canes has become SO brisk that one
can find them exhibited in a dozen
windows around the Opera and the
Palais Royal"
The practice of the tourists has
apparently been to load UP their
prize walking sticks just before en-
tering the three mile limit at New
York. and than twirl them under
the very eyes of the customs in
spectors. The canes are made in va
rious styles. and a tourist might
have several others among his lug
gage.
Thetrick is now doomed, however.
as the customs agents In Paris have
already tipped off the customs ssrv-
Ice at New York, which will prob
ably be drilling holes in all suspect
ed canes soon.

Harry 5 Baldwin. president of the
association. urged upon delegates
the necessity of making their res
Ntaurants attractive. He also laid
stress upon the need of reducing
manu- prices to the lowest point con-
sistent with good business. This
can be done, he said. by exercising
average care in the selection of
foods and in teh administration Of
the business.
The public eating place takes
the place of home for a short space
Of time" President Baldwin said.
Hundreds of thousands of Amer

their meals. 1t Is the duty OF every
restaurant keeper to provide the
best nOurishment possible so that
the wheels of commerce may be kept
turning"

WARNS OF ARMS
AT VLADIVOSTOK

TOKYO, Oct. e.-The Japanese
government is considering formal
ly notifying America and Great
Britain that 1t is evacuating Vladi-
vostok on October 81 and suggest
ing that they send forces to guard
the vast munitions supplies there,
which mainly consist of American

There is no great expectation
that either will agree to dispatch
troops, but Tokyo Is considering
these measures in order to relieve

Hayes mistook the couple for Pearl

He asserted that Hayes mistake

Schneider denies that he or Hayes
cut Mrs. Mills throat or that they
arranged the bodies in the careful
manner In which they were found.
