PARIS, June 28. Special Cable.)
At 1:10 o'clock this afternoon the treaty
of peace formally ending the great war
was signed by Germany and the allies
at Versailles, but a new and furious
battle broke out a few minutes later
the battle of Paris. In this everyone
joined. It was one of those battles
where the feminine population played a
great role.
How is one to describe the wild
scenes enacted In Paris tonight? How
can one picture the enthusiastic, cheer
Ing crowds which swayed back and
forth along the great boulevards, while
songs and shouts broke out from the
far-away Latin quarter to ilontmartre
even the camera pictures would give
but a faint Idea of these manifestations
when everyone was happy and relieved
to know that the terrible suspense
which has been hanging over the city
for more than eight months was lifted.
Crswas Pill Taorsaghfares.
The frolic started from the Place
de la Concorde, opposite the American
peace mission's residence at the Hotel
Crillon. when, to the accompaniment of
booming guns and the howling, Inhar
monious sirens which so often during
five years warned- us of danger - from
airplanes, a crowd of young students
3 pulled out one of the French trophies
of war a big German howitzer and
rolled it along the boulevard.
The signal thus given was rapidly
heeded, and an hour later all traffic
along the main Paris thoroughfares had
to stop to make way for the Joyfu
crowds. The celebrations were even
more eothusiastie than those on ar
mistice night, for peace had been
aigned and many doughboys have re
turned home.
TVIlasa Is Seagal.
The latter were the center of all the
fun. for their Joyous spirits were only
equaled ly those of the Mldinettes who
had Just luft their dally round of work.
Old Glory came into its own again with
the I'arisiennea when scores of them
led a huge procession of frantically
cheering and singing crowds.
One huge procession headed by the
French tri-color made for the Hotel
rlllon. where It was believed Presi
dent Wilson was holding a meAing
with his advisers. As the minutes
passed by the crowd grew bigger, until
the Place de la Concorde was one huge
mass of humanity come to pay homage
to the man who had helped to build up
the treaty which the incmy had signed.
President la Cheered.
As the president emerged from the
Hotel Crillon the crowd broke n on
him, cheering wildly. He had the great
est difficulty In reaching his car. Then
the crowd marched up the boulevard,
where the strains of 'Madelon. the
Pol I us" song. mlngleJ with allied an
thems and soldier marching songs.
Around the squares hasty orchestras
were got together, around which
danced happy couples, undisturbed by
the clouds blowing around them.
The government has organized a
series of celebrations. All shops are
closed and the workers will get a two
or three days holiday in which to cele
brate the allied victory over a cow
ardly, unrepentant enemy.
"Is this right about tne Germans
sinning?" a doughboy friend just asked
me. 1 said it was.
"Glory be.- he yelled. "Maybe I can
be home by Thanksgiving."
Just at that moment guns began to
boom far up along the Seine and from
the American mission headquarters at
the Hotel Crillon and from the minis
try of marine across the way eager
heads peered forth from open windows
Mldlaettea Start Celebration.
It was SO o'clock, the time the
shops and dressmaking establishments
begin closing and to pour their masses
Into the grand boulevards. Hue de la
Pais, the Palace de L'Opera and other
central thoroughfares. Instead of hur
rying helter-skelter down Into the sub
way to take homeward-bound trains
the throngs lingered on the sidewalks
to give an excited ear to the guns
booming in celebration of the advent
of peace.
The midinettes, those effervescent
hand maidens of Pame Fashion, with
linked arms tripped merrily through
the streets chanting the "Madelon" and
the "Marsellaise." It is always they
who "start something." In the line of
joyous celebration the doughboys In
the Paris of today are close seconds.
The crowd swathed the Strassburg
monument on Place de la Concorde in
tricolor flags. Sirens screamed their
hideous wail, which, with the barrage
like bursts of cannon, was reminiscent
of an air raid rather than a welcome
to peace. Carnival reigned far into
the night.
Crowds at Lille staged a celebration
quite as enthusiastically. Houses were
decorated and crowds of merrymak
ers thronged the streets. At Brest
and Toulon the news was given to the
people by the firing of guns by the
naval craft in those harbors.

cause the side pockets are such handy
places for hiding one's valuables in be
fore retiring. A millionaire from Alas
ka bespoke the top shelf In the Hotel
Secor"s largest refrigerator, and
Pittsburg capitalist has wired on to
make reservations of a couple of out
side bins In the main coal cellar. The
broader balustrade rails of the main
staircase were all taken weeks ago,
and the narrow ones on the upper
floors .are going fast. ' The last boot
black stand in town was rented yes
terday by a wealthy Butte miner, who.
according to report, is to pay $50 for
tha privilege of reposing on it from 11
P. M. until 6 A. M.
A strong bull movement In old church
pews Is also reported. Carpenters,
benches are growing scarcer by the
minute, and bathtubs in boarding
houses will be occupied in shifts by
persons fleshy enough to sleep on por
celaln without bruising themselves.
Good airy livery stables stalls are not
to be had at any price.
Transients Poor la ts Toledo,
Although announcement was made
weeks ago that transients would do
well to stay away from Toledo this
week, every train brings In optimistic
persons who booked no accommodations
n advance, but who coma filed with
the deluded fancy that the Providence
which guards the fall of the sparrow
will look after other birds, too.
One of these hopeful parties entered
hotel lobby this morning and de
manded a room, with or without a bath.
He would be willing to forego the bath,
but he Just naturally must have a room.
His advent failed to create any excite
ment; on the contrary, calmness pre
vailed upon the part of tha clerical
force. Two weeks ago he would have
been greeted warmly, and a youth in
buttons, answering to the name of
"Front," would have sprung forward
he entered the door, intent upon
relieving him of his hand luggage. One
week from now the same will be true
but not this week. The hotel staffs
are just naturally fed up on persons
who demand rooms when there are no
rooms. Why a city like Toledo would
be put to it to provide hotel accommo
dations for all those Individuals who,
during tha past month, have been men
tioned as the possible referee of this
fight, or who have mentioned them
selves for that post of honor and re
sponsibility, let alone taking care of
the thoussnds upon thousands of others
who pile off the incoming trains.
well, anyhow, the upshot was that
the trusting stranger who wanted a
room with or without bath was given
he address of a number of lodging
houses and boarding houses and livery
stables and such, and he departed on
his quest. Inside of one hour he re-
urned.
H.tel Clerks Iadepeadeat.
"Nothing doing outside," he said to
the clerk.
"Nothing doing Inside here," said the
clerk. "Five minutes after you went
away the last fire-escape balcony we
had left was snapped up by a party of
four from Salt Lake City."
"8av." demanded the applicant. "I've
rnt to live somewhere, haven't IT"
"Not necessarily." said the clerk
rnlrilv.
Such Is apt to be the experience of
the casual traveler who drops in un
announced and unexpected and un
booked these midsummer days on the
city of Toledo.
As vet I have not visited the train
ing camps of the two most prominent
people in the world. I have the prom
ise that as soon as one of the bellboys
finds time he Is going to show me up
to a room that is being spill iour ways,
and when I have found out which end
n - Kn.&n hod has been assigned to me
and have taken formal possession of
my half of U. I propose to pay visit
to the big fellow and the other fellow.
I am told that it is not necessary to
send In one's card. Any one who has
a half dollar is welcome. Managers of
pugilists are nothing If not hospitable.
I hear from an expert who haa Just
cmoe back from the two training qui.
ters that both are agog -wim ttnc
ment. Kvidently life this week for all
of us Is going to be Just one gog after
another. .
It suits me. Let the goga be un

AMERICAN IEGIOX STRIKES AT

E. C. Boom, First Commander of
State Organization, Popular
With ex-6oIdiers.
BOISE, Idaho, June 28. (SpeclaL)
The Idaho branch of the American La
glon, organized at Boise last 'week,
made it clear that an attompt to mix
politics with tha affairs of the legion
would not be tolerated and that it Is
proposed to remain free from tha en
tanglements which political wire pull
ing affords. Tha legion is mads up of
veterans of tne reoent war who propose
to remain free lances In matters of
public interest and policies, taking
hand In them at such times as it is be
lieved this is necessary.
The legion struck boldly at slackers
and aliens who refuse to fight for the
country of their adoption after enjoy
ing its benefits. It also went on rec
ord as in favor of the passage of the
Mondell soldier land settlement bill
which advices from Washington now
say is in Jeopardy. The enemies of the
act were condemned in no uncertain
terms.
The first state commander of the le
gion, E. C. Boom of Moscow, is held
in the highest esteem by the ex-sol
diers. At the age of 4T hs enlisted in
the army as a volunteer and went to
France with Company D, 18th railway
engineers, u. s. A.
The constitution adopted by the
league provides that the executive
power shall be vested In the executive
committee to be made up of one mem
ber from each of the 10 Judicial dis
tricts in the state, the state commander
and state adjutant; that the officers to
be named by the legion shall be state
commander, state adjutant and finance
officer, state vice commander, state
historian, state master at arms and
state cnaplaln. But one of these offi
cers Js to be on a salary. That is the
adjutant, who is to be paid 12500 per
annum.

sweet, sad perfume, congregate those
whom our English cousins in the front
part of the past century were wont to
denominate as the "fancy." Former
aspirants fo,r championship honors who
now are past the first flush of youth,
but are still In the four-flush period of
their careers, are to be met with upon
all sides, every one of them gogging
away like a house afire.
Heavyweights predominate; that is
to say. most of them strike you as be
ing heavyweights from the collar line
down. Above that point they mainly
are in the phantom class. With them
gogging generally assumes the form of
being exceedingly knoweidgeable,
toothing on the relative chances of
Messrs. Willurd and Pempsey. Just
after reaching town 1 heard of one
such gentleman who was prepared to
bet thousands against hundreds on
Willard to win on points or with a
cleaa knockout, or something. I could
not get the exact terms of the waiter
proposed' because shortly after outlin

would be willing to risk so goodly a
sum he hsd gone off to try to borrow
breakfast money from a stranger.

Morlllia Lenlton of No. 202 Union street.
Bloomlngton. 111. She says:
"I had a severe attack of influenza
and it left me so weak and run down
that I could hardly get about. I was
susceptible to colds, in fact I was set
dom without one, and had a bronchial
cough that worried roe. My head ached
a great deal, causing loss of sleep. I had
little appetite and my stomach was
weak.
One day I decided to try Dr. Will-
lams' Pink Pills and it proved a fortu
nate decision, for In a little over a week
my appetite Improved. My stomach was
also better and I was able to eat
hearty meal. I continued the treatment
until my headaches and the cough dis
appeared. I have gained strength and
feel almost as well as I ever did. I have
told many of my friends about Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills, for I eannot rec
ommend them too highly."
