Americans Have. Part In All the
Wars of the World.
NEW YORK, Oct.; 13. .Michael
Zooimovitch's "army'' of Servian-
American volunteers," is slowly be
ing organized. With Captain Les
kovac, Sergenat Sharko Radrojevitch
and other patriots, he is enlisting
fellow countrymen for service in the
Balkans, in the event of Servia going
to war with the Austro-Hungarian
empire. The recruits now number
12 ranging in age from 18 to 35 years.
King Peter calls for troops and the
"Army" will sail on the first steamer
leaving New York for an Italian
port '" .,?' v--;-'
"In case of war we are all going,"
said Captain Leskovac, "and if the
State Department at Washington
tries to stop us at the behest of Aus
tria on the ground that we arc armed
belligerents ert route from a friendly
conntry to fight a power friendly to
that country we will simply register
on the steamship passage books as
'Persons off to visit relatives in Ser
via,' and then they will have to let
us, .go. '.:i.:-
"In the event of war we expect to
sail from Italy, landing " either at
Naoles or Genoa. There we will take
passage for a Turkish port and then
proceed overland to Belgrade, where
we will put ourselves at the dispoosal
of your fatherland." " !. ' )
Caotain Leskovac says that volun
teers are being gathered in Pittsburg
and Chicago also. Each volunteer,
he says will pay his own way to Italy
and the rest of his fare will be paid
by the Servian government. They
have already notified the ruler of
Servia that they are prepared to
leave on a minute's notice. t s if

ESCAPED TO FRANCE.
Principal Offenders In "White Slave"
Traffic May Jump Bail
CHICAGO, Oct 13,-That the
great crusade that the federal gov
ernment, through the district at
torney's office, is waging against the
"White Slave" traffic, has suffered a
defeat in its most important case,
was discovered yesterday . when it
was learned that Alphonse and Eva
Dufour, two of the principal offend
ers Indicted last July, had slipped
through the net of the law and es
caped to France.
They were held in prison for some
time because they were unable to
furnish the bail, which was fixed at
$25,000 for each of them. In August,
however, they succeeded in having
the amount reduced to $25,000 for
both of them. This amount was
turned over to the government in
cash and property and they were re
leased. ' They are now in France.
The United States has no extradition
treaty with France, covering the
class of offense with which they are
charged..
Proceedings leading to the for
feiture of their bonds will be started
before Judge Landis' today. The
court will set a day for their trial
and if they do not appear at that
time their bond will be forfeited.
VANITY OF CONVICTS.
The Way 8om Mm Sprue Up In th
Penitentiary.
"The ralnest lot of men I ever did
know ore jiehlnd these walls," remark,
ed a convict In the penitentiary. "For
fastidious dressing and cleanliness I
have never seen anything like It Those
who hare been accustomed to sleeking
up on the outside grow much worse In
here, and those who never even combed
then hair on the outside have It as
cleanly parted as they can. I know of
a hundred Instances where convicts
have risked being paddled or having
time taken away Just for the sake of
sharing. They get bold of a razor or
Improvise one and keep it in their cells.
They all have mirrors in their cells
along with the calendars.
"I know of one Instance of a trusted
prisoner who begged for weeks to bo
allowed to wear a hat instead of the
prison cap because he thought be did
not look well In it Whenever they get
an opportunity they press their trou
sers. They save collars for Sundays
and appear very clean and neat and
nice In chapeL I guess it Is all be
cause they have time to think abou
i
themselves more than ever. If a ma;
has nothing but himself to think about
he takes more pride In himself. Or
maybe thoy want something with which
to pass away the time In their cells."

Blanket of Bark.
In Ecuador, one of the South Ameri
can republics, the bark of a tree which
grows on the slopes of the Andes is
utilized for the making of blankets.
The blanket is over Bis feet long and
over five feet wide and Is as soft and
pliable as though It were made of flan
nel. It Is about the thickness of a
good flannel blanket and can be rolled
up and put In a strap without hurting
or injuring It. Thte tree or bark blan
ket is merely a strip of bark cut from
a section of the trunk of. the blanket
or demcjagua tree. The Indians make
a cutting nroifml the trunk to get It.
and they prepare It by soaking It In
water until it Is soft. It is then pound
ed so that the rough outside can be
stripped off and the inside alone left,
The Inside, is of flue fibers so Joined
together by nature that It makes a
beautiful blanket, warm enough to be
used as a cover and soft enough for a
mattress.. :;".'".
