AS William Had
Planned
By II. IRVING KING
70 BY Mcclure Newspaper syndicate.)

&c by Mcclure Newspaper syndicate)
Most young men while in college
map out for themselves their future
life. William c. Ralston was not an
exception. He decided to study law,
become judge and marry an heiress.
This highly commendable program
William c. did not keep to himself,
but openly announced TO his intimates
at college.
Having been graduated from law
school, he returned to his native town
"a very considerable Midwest city
and attaching himself to well-known
firm of lawyers, and was soon re-
garded as a rising young barrister."
His chances of ultimately reaching the
bench were excellent.
In less than years time he was
making favorable progress in the sec
ond-but by no means secondary
part of his program having managed
to maneuver himself into the posi-
ton of acknowledged sutton for the
hand of Eleanor Monroe, the daughter
and only child of Stephen Monroe, the
capitalist"
But he had never brought matters
to the crucial point of popping the
question" Two or three times he
fancied that Eleanor had tried to help
matters to the crucial point, but, for
some reason which he could not ex-
plain to himself, he had always SHE'D
off.
Then one day, as they sat out a
dance, Eleanor said: william, l have
the lOvellest girl coming to visit me.
Shed be just the one for you If she
only had money-but she hasn't Uncle
John, her father, writes things about
American archaeology and-and that
sort Of thing. Oh, l should explain
Her name is Edith Arnold, she is my
cousin--and from Boston. Yes, Edith /
is charming girl, but OF course you
are going TO marry money-and sit on j
the bench" 7
William blushed and began to STAN G
mer incoherently, but Eleanor put in h
with "Oh, don't be so disturbed. / a
won't betray you. Do you remember {
Henry Winston In your class at col v
ege? l met him at Bar Harbor last h
mentioned your name to him
md he told me of the announced am h
'ition of your student days. Perfectly
legitimate aspirations. 1 can't help E
'ou to place on the bench but

And before William could frame q II
eply she was off on the arm of a a
Dung man who came to claim her for in
he next dance, leaving William won

ist remark. He should have his r,

Commissioner Wants Anal

Smoke Screens by U. S.

Commissioner oyster today called
upon the chemical warfare service of
the Army to assist the police in COM
batting the smoke screen, latest
weapon of Washington bootleggers.
in a letter to Brig. Gen. Amos A.
Fries, head of the chemical warfare
division, Commissioner Oyster re-
quests that experts Of that service
make an analysis of liquids taken by
had used the smoke screen.
The Commissioner told the general
that he has received information that
this barrier of smoke may contain
dangerous gases in addition to blot
ting out to the pursuing officers all
view of the bootleg automobiles.
Chemists of the District health de-
partment sought to analyze q guam
tity of liquid obtained from a bootleg
car, which was supposed to consist of
a mixture of oil of ammonia and oil
of creosote. The local chemists, how
ever, being unfamiliar with these
warlike "contraptions." were unable
to make much headway.
The Commissioner suggested to
Cen. Fries that his men, who gained
experience and distinction during the
war in gas weapons. might be able to
inform the police just how dangerous
this latest weapon Of the bootlegger
is.
On several occasions recently rum
runners have succeeded in eluding
Commissioner Oysters mon by throw
ing out this cloud of smoke from a
tank under the car, operated by the
man at the wheel.

The Navy Department has an
nounced that the United States viii

struction program despite the delay
in the final ratification OF the wash
ington conference naval treaty. 1t is
the intention of the authorities to fol-
low this procedure until the status OF
the agreement is definitely settled.
Announcement of this renewed de-
cision came in connection with the
transfer to the War Department or
ammunition intended for the main
batteries of the seven battleships ana
four battle creuisers whose construc-
t;on was stopped by the 5-5-3 naval
ration agreement. More than sixty Oh
the new l6-inch 50-caliber rifles were
turned over to the War Department
after the conference for installation
in continental and insuiar coast de-
fenses, and when the reQueSt LOT am
munition for these guns hrst came
from the War Department, secretary

posed of.

Publicity recently given TO the prac-
tice in the Navy Department or strip
ping the Navy vessels temporarily
laid up under the naval treaty to
equip other ships has resulted in an
order from the bureau of operations
calling for careful survey of such
activity to prevent permanent injury
to the decommissioned ships.
Two thousand shells, 100000 pounds
of special powder and 5000 tanks,
