any eriven today by Stephen Plchon, the
foreign minister, at which all the
members of the French cabinet were

"Endeavoring to induce President
Wilson to intercede for her." Pre

evades the plain, blunt question of
the president, hoping to gain time to
extricate herself from her fatal pos!
tion and to save the kaiser and the
German kings and princes In the last
stronghold of kings and military des
potism.
"Germany must rebuild the ruin
ed French and Belgian cities, replace
the stolen machinery, restore the
patterns and trade secrets and com
pensate the manufacturers and work
men. intil then we cannot and will
not admit ber to the family of na
nous nor give ner a snare or our

Daylight Saving.
Ben Franklin thought of saving
daylight a long time ago. In the year
1784 he wrote from England to a
friend In America:
"In a walk through the Strand and
Fleet Street one morning at 7 o'clock
I observed that there wns not one
shop open, although It had been day
light and the sun up about three
horns: the Inhabitants of London
choosing voluntarily to live by candle
light and sleep by sunshine; and yet
often complaining a little absunlly
of the duty on candles and the high
price of tnllow."
Old English Names.
It would he Interesting to know how
certain places on the edjie of St. Louis
and Franklin counties got their names,
Mich as St. Albans, Melrose, Chester
field. Manchester and so on, all good
old English names, while the majority
of the names on the letter boxes on
the Manchester and Melrose roads are
German and undoubtedly many of the
reople of this part of the state are of
German descent, although among the
most loyal of the Americans of the
present day. But who was respond

Wars That Made History.
The Civil war In America wag fol
lowedIn 1800 by the Prusso-Ans-trlan
campaign in Bohemia, which may
be said to have lasted only seven
weeks, since Austria was completely
brought to terms by her first crushing
defeat at Konlggratz. The logical se
quel to the Prussian war of 1866 with
Austria was the German one of 1870
with France, though, Indeed, it may
be said to have been practically de
cided In less than one month at Se
danthe rest of the time being bat a
long-drawn-out agony of fighting des

RANG OUT ALARM OF FIRE
As Late as Civil War Days New York
Employed Bells to Warn Citizens
of Danger,
Not longer ago than Civil war days
fire alarms were rung in the city on
great bells hung In towers erected for
the purpose about the town. The bells
indicated the district In which the fire
was and sometime a good deal of
ground was covered In looking for a
fire. The First district, for Instance,
in Civil war days extended from Twenty-second
street north to YorkvUle' and
from the East river to the North.
The bell ringers were constantly on
duty In the towers watching for signs
of a Are. An Inventory of the contents
of the old Marlon street bell tower In
1805 shows the equipment then In use.
It is as follows: "One bell, weight 11.-
00 pounds ; one striking apparatus,
one stove, table, clock, one spyglass,
one field glass, one slate and book."
The fire bells of the old citr could
be heard all over the town nnless a
gale of wind was blowing. The largest
belt was in the City hall tower. Its
weight wag 23,000 pounds. New York

Amusing Trick Is Simple.
One of the most amnslng tricks In
fireworks is the serpent's egg trick,
where a little pellet when lighted turns
Into a horrible snake, many, many
times the size of the Dellet How
awe-inspiring It Is to the youngster I
Most people have no Idea what In the
world causes the snake to appear. The
explanation is gltrfple. Mercury sul-pho-cyanld
burns with a voluminous
ash. The little pellet Is nothing more
than some metcury sulpho-cyanld.
The heat causes the ash to move off
so quickly from the burning pellet that
it writhes and distorts Itself Into the
shape of a miniature snake.

American troops have crowded hundreds of ships this spring and sum
