Cyclone In Italy.

ROME, July 30. - A cyclone has

Stories Exaggerated.

Reports of thousands of devout
catholics making painful pilgrimages
to churches are exaggerated. The Mex
lean masses are not at all addicted to
religious overzealousness. The wealthy
classes simply use the church for
personal ACKNOWLEDGMENT and as a
political machine.
The mayor of Nochistan was lynch
ed by a catholic mob according to re-
ports. The clergy are openly melting
their superstitious followers to acts of
violence.
Labor Backs Government.
The entire labor movement OF the
republic is rallying to the government
in the struggle against the church.
The federation Of labor declares that
the workers above all others have
been the greatest sufferers from the
activities of the church.
Just as soon as catholic priests
leave the churches the buildings will
be taken over by the government and
used as schools, theatres, labor union
halls.

About two months ago cyclone

Policy of Silence
Makes FerU Enemies

A keen observer recently remarked
that harsh words in the English Ian
guage have more synonyms than pleas
art words have. A little turning of
TIE pages Of the dictionary bears him
out.
If you sag man tells the truth you
have said it all. There is no neat and
forceful way of emphasizing and en-
Iarging upon that. But if you say he
lies you will find a hundred subter-
fuging ways to say it. From the
short and ugly" to "equivocate.r
"quibble," ''prevaricate" and the like,
the list is long, says the Montreal
Star.
One politician made himself famous
by saying of another that he "was
economical in the use of the truth to
the verge of parsimoniousness." Such
n statement draws a smile. 1t is
bland it is suave, 1t has the mild
sting of vinegar, not the burning ero-
sion of yitriol.
Even better than such elaborate Cir
cumlocutIons to express thing which
mt best we should have left unsaid is
to forego for the moment being clever,
and keep our peace. The world will
think more highly of us for it.

RARE BIOLOGICAL
SPECIMENS HERE
Naval Observatory Expedi-

for Smithsonian.

With the return of the United States
Naval Observatory expedition from
Sumatra, where 1t went to observe the
total eclipse of the sun last January,

rection of the Smithsonian institution
Incomes possessed of the finest collec-
ton of biological material brought 10

Lieut.. H. c. Kelers. Medical Corps,
T.. s. ~, was detailed to the expedi-
tion bv the Navy Department 10 col

the cordial cooperation of the Dutch,
he collected, roughly. 5000 specimens
Of reptiles, birds, insects, crustaceans,
n,ollusks and mammals--iiving ana
dead.
A l6.foot python is included among
the live animals brought home. Df.
Kellers caught this reptile i'm tree
while it was in a dormant cohAitioh
after feeding. He also caught another
pvthor measuring - feet, but it es-
caped from its pen at night and caused
considerable damage among the local
poultry wards before disappearing INTO
the forest.
Queer Birds Here.
Among the IS living birds brought
back to the National Geological Park,
which is also under Smithsonian ad-
ministration. are a pair OF black
crested horn-bills Aside from their
weird shrek, these birds are dis
tinguished by the habit which the
male has of building a mud wall to
seal the female up in her nest during
the nesting period. He leaves only
small hole through which to. pass food.
At night the female sticks her beak
through the aperture, effectively
plugging it. The purpose OF TINS
extraordinarily intelligent maneuver
is to protect the eggs from snakes.
The Draco. a flying lizard. cOlored as
beautifully as a butterfly. was ore OF
Dr. keller's catches. He captUr~1
also a coral fish off the Island -
Pocloetlcus, 20 miles from Sumatra.
This is very rare species. From the
same island he brought back water

are all poisonous. A fiat tail dish

The insect haul numbers several

A BASEBALL DRAMA

"Life's Greatest Game" sixth of the famous F. B. o. series of pictures produced by Emory Johnson and writ ten by the directors mother, Emile Johnson, comes to the Liberty Thea tre Sunday. A baseball drama with wide human appeal, including in it's fast action such a monumental event as the sinking of the transatlantic liner Titanic" the vivid portrayal of character and incident make this the biggest of the Johnson pictures; which is taking in lot of territory when such films as "The Third Alarm and "The Spirit of the U. s.
