 WASHINGTON, July 14.--Reported evacuation of the city of Sac Paulo by the Brazilian federal auth0Fities was confirmed in official dispatches receiv- Cd today+by the state department.
 One dispatch. undated, from Sac Panlo, described the withdrawal of the SederaIs to Santos where. it was said; prepaFaslpns wege well advanced for n rene wed attack upon hs state capital. Troops were already in mo- tion with this object in view when the message was sent,
 This dispatch and another from San tos, undated, emphasized the belief of the departments informants that American lives and property would be adequately safeguarded by both fac tions. All means of communication, with stores of arms and ammunition were commandered by the federals, the department was informed, and the gov ernment was being pressed to declare moraFitium in the affected area for at least one month.

 The government troops attacking the rebels at Sac Paulo are maintaining their position and have made notable advancesp at several points, it was said in ah official cOmmunique receiv- ed today at the Brazilian embassy.
 I've believe" the dispatch added, ''that the rebels have already made without result, their decisive effort. Great disc6ufagenent prevails among them, In the principal cities of the state the people are enthusiastically or ganizing volunteer companies to assist the troops"
 Recapture Suburbs
 A telegram received in official circles late today and bearing the date of the evening of July 12, declared the fed eral troops had recaptured the suburbs of the city of Sac Paulo. Local au- thOrities anticipated several days of fighting sbut were optimistic, the mes sage said.
 Up to the time the dispatch was filed there had been no American casu- alties in the area of revolt and casual ties of all kinds were said to be small. Santos was reported to be quiet, but all shipping had been diverted owing to port restrictions. Prices were rising, the message said, and the local hotels were jamined,

He also made the same decision on the final count which charged Sinclair with re- fusing, to answer any questions.

The next great advance was the
opening of the New York Denver line,

AMERICA LEADS
WORLD IN USE
OF TELEPHONE

There were over 100 telephone con
versations during 1921 for every man,
woman and child in the United States,
a considerably larger average than in
any other country in the world. Ac,
cording to the best information avail
able, Denmark and Norway, whose
telephones are operated partly by pri
vate companies and partly by the re.
spective governments, rank next to
the United States in per capita tele-
phone conversations; but in each of
these countries there were forty fewer
calls per. person during 1921 than in
this country. Sweden, where govern
ment ownership prevails, follows with
an average Of only 81 telephone con-
versations per inhabitant during the
year. France and Great Britain,
whose entire telephone systems are
government.owned, are eleventh and
twelfth, respectively, each country
averaging less than 20 calls per per-
son during 1921.

LINEMAN'S FIRST AID
SAVES HUNTERS LIFE

The timely arrival of Joseph Lee,
an Ohio Bell Telephone Co. lineman,
saved Delmer Bair, of Findlay, Ohio.
from bleeding to death after acct
lentally shooting himself in the arm
while hunting, says the Cleveland
jOhio) Plain Dealer.
Lee was working on a telephone
line and heard BARS mother calling
a physician. Lee, possessing a knowl
edge Of first aid through a course
given him by the company, broke in
on the conversation and offered his
help when the doctor said he could
not reach the Bair home for half an
hour
When the physician arrived, Lee
had BARS wound treated so that the
flow of blood was stopped.

WOULD HUMANIZE
BRITISH WIRES
London Post Assails Telephone Ad.
Manifestations "Coldly Formal"
Attitude.

In recent series of articles under
the heading "No Progress with the
Telephone" the London Morning Post
severely condemns the British tele-
phone system, both as to development
and quality Of service.
Twelve years have passed since the
telephone system of Great Britain
came entirely into the hands Of the
British government, which operates
1t in connection with the Post Office
Yet, says the Morning Post, "the
general consensus of opinion is that
no material progress has been made
in the direction of cheaper and
more efficient service" London, it
declares, is far behind American
cities in telephone facilities.
The Morning Post protests against
what it describes as "the coldly for
NAL treatment that prevails in this
country Great Britain), as contrasted
with the personal contact established
in those countries where the tele-
phone is a matter Of business enter
prise" It declares that "since assum.
ing control our government has done
nothing to popularize the telephone
or make known it's utility: but EN-
phasizes the fact that "in comment
ing on the service or contrasting its
working with that OF other countries,
It Is not suggested that individuals
are in any way to blame, but the
system by which they are governed
and which, like the majority Of State
operated departments, . is devoid OF
imagination, elasticity, and apprecia'
ton of public feeling"

One of the most disastrous condi-
tions, according to the officials Of the
United States Department OF Agri-
culture, that can occur IN the brood
ing of chicks is to allow them to
crowd together. Crowding is caused
either through the chicks becoming
overheated or chilled, usually the lat
ter. Crowding may not only cause
loss through death Of many chicks,
but many others may suffer to such
an extent as never to regain normal
health. Crowding is an indication of
improper methods of brooulpg, and
the normal development of ne chicks
is interrupted.
In order to prevent chicks from
providing employ the following sug7
gestions given by the department:
Be sure to have good ventilation
in the brooder, but avoid drafts. Ii
there is danger from overheating,
bank the fires in the coal brooder
stoves or burn lower fame in the oil
burning brooder. Open the windows
slightly, but be very sure to avoid a
draft over the chicks or they will
catch cold. On the other hand, if the
chicks are chilled they are bound TO
crowd. When they are first put in
tie breeders tie temperature should
be about 80 degrees F., and it should
be maintained fairly constantly for a
week or so, depending upon weather
conditions. AS the chicks get older
the temperature should be lowered
gradually; the cooler the weather the
less the temperature is lowered. If
the chicks start to crowd, it is fairly
certain that they are too cool and
more heat should be supplied. Watch
the brooder room carefully and try to
.eep the chicks comfortable.

SPECTACULAR STORM
DESTROYS TELEPHONE
COMPANY'S PROPERTY

A recent snow, sleet and wind
storm played great havoc in the terri.
tory of the Chesapeake and Potomac

Of Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia
and the District of Columbia. Rain
followed by sleet and a high wind
caused widespread destruction to
Wire and Pole lines.
More than 700 Telephones, 800
Poles and 10000 miles Of local and
long distance circuit was put out of
commission, resulting in an estimated
damage to the plant of the c. & p.
Telephone Company of approximately
$15O,OOO.
AS soon as reports were received Of
the storm damage, men and materials
were rushed as fast as possible. In
many cases repairs were held up by
high waters. the rivers having over
flowed and blocked the highways.
Necessarily, the work of RECONSTRUCT

difficult circumstances, but after SO

100 of the 142 long distance circuits
out Of order had been restored to the
service. Within three days service to
all points had been restored through
the use of 100000 feet of insulated
emergency wire and new poles.
The storm was one of the most
spectacular of recent years. In the
extent of it's widespread destruction
and it's natural aspects of picturesque
ness it was particularly distinctive.
During the night trees and telephone
poles had succumbed to the weight of
ice and crashed to the ground amid
the pistol-like reports of swapping
wires; when daylight came the scene
presented was most fantastic. The
CLEAN of the ice on tree and pole had
transformed the storm-swept area into
scene of SURPRISING beauty. Even
the discomfort suffered through this
unwelcome visitation was partially
forgotten in the compensation afforded
by glimpse at this marvellous mani.

OH Oh otnef cities OF the country.
Dempsey is throwing the polished
stun to the queens taste. He is very
careful in his choice of language and
clothes, and in every shade of de-
meanor he is putting forth the i'm
preston that when he entered the
prize fight game the country club.
the hunt club, and the Fiftn Avenue
drawing room lost a shining orna-
ment.
The theater is packed at every per-
formance and Jacks reception is up
to anything that Gen. Pershing would
get were he to appear. Then he
saunters to his hotel and holds court
for the brightest and best in the city
The mayor of Newark personally es-
corted Jack to the Walker-Malone
fight-which, by the way, Dempsey
walked out on in the tenth round, as
though he had done enough to help
this vulgar affair by staying as long
as he had.
Jacks new nose gives him sort of
a sappy look. That is, the old Demp-
sey with his dented beak and the
snappy pug effect at the tip was the
real type of fighter, but now you
wouldn't know what to pick him for.
The champion has evidently no
thought of fighting any one, although
he says he is only going to spend
five or six weeks on the stage and
then be ready to meet all comers
All of which bunk helps fill the
theaters, but doesn't fool the wise
guys. If Dempsey ever fights again
it will surprise most of his friends.
