tional defense, with a Secretary of War
at Its head, should be created by Con
gress. Report Is Warning.
Th report of General Wocd marked
"confidential" dealt with thes sub

of more or less common knowledge
among Army and Navy experts In this
country and abroad. In fact, the real
significance of the document I that
it makes official admission of condi
tions already well known anions Army
and Navy officers.
General Wood, before the House mil
Itsry committee, furnished Interesting
Informstlon. He discussed the whole
subject of National defenses; told
where the weak points lay, and laid
particular emphasis on the possibility
of attack from the enemy. He did not

DOZEN PORKERS BEWILDER, SO
NOSE IS KILLED.
James Morgan Had Just Got Used
to New Plate, but Must Renew
Trip to Dentist.
VANCOUVER. Wash'., Dec. 14. (Spe
cial.) To see his only set of artificial
gold teeth disappear Into the mouth of
a fat little pig was the ordeal of
James Morgan, a farmer living a few
miles out from . Vancouver. Morgan
does not know which little porker is
guilty of the theft, so he has decided
It would not be profitable to kill them
all to recover his teeth.
Morgan came to town today to have
another set made, although the teeth
he lost were less than a month old and
just beginning to feel comfortable.
Mr. Morgan was eating a delicious
chicken dinner at his home on the
farm Sunday. He got a small bone
fastened In his new store teeth. Re
tiring from the tablo lie went to the
back door, where he gave the bone a
Jerk that hurled his teeth through the
air.
In the yard were a dozen or more
little porkers being fattened for sau
sase, and when they saw something
shining fall they were all after It in
an Instant, and that was the last Mr.
Morgan saw of his new set of gold
teeth.
While waiting for his new set Mr.
Morgan is eating soup.

he produced and is said to have also pur
chased a lot at low prices during th
early part of the season. Other growers

some of them stiU have fair stocks oa

degrading evil or evils" then harrasslng
mankind.
British Aid Expected.
As Mr. Carnegie read an informal deed
of trust announcing at length the general
purpose of his gift, there was prolonged
applause. He then . explained the inci
dents which inelred the gift at this time,
and declared with emphasis that if the
English-speaking race in the United
States and Great Britain once consoli
dated in the movement for international
peace, the success of the measure In the
reet of the wprld would be assured.
That Great Britain stood ready to co
operate with this country. Mr. Carnegie
said he felt certain, and all that was
now needed was the concurrence of the
President and the S?nate In promulgating
the movement on behalf of the United
State.
Thanks Are Voted.
A resolution of thanks was presented by
Joseph H. Choate ex-United States Am
bassador to Great Britain, which was
adopted.

mously elected permanent chairman and
James Brown Scott, solicitor of the State
Department, was chosen permanent sec

organization is effected.
Mr. Carnegie declined to be included
In the future organization, but expres
sions of gratitude were uttered by many
trustees, who look forward to continued
advice from the donor.
ATlde Discretion Given.
The feeling of delight at the mani
festations of appreciation was plainly
visible' in Mr. Carnegie's speech and
throughout the meeting. Exactly what
