What Bosche Is. , Until the war broke out few Ameri cans had heard the word bosche or boche, the French soldiers' nickname for a German. It doesn't appear In the Academy's dictionary or in such editions of Llttre as most, of us can get hold of. In Delvau's slang diction ary its definition Is "Mauvats sujet, dans l'argot des petltes dames, qui le preferent au muche"; which last word Delvau defines as "jeune homme poll, doux, amiable, reserve." A letter from Thomas Ogllvy to the Spectator sup plies some additional information. He says M. Theodore Joran is his author ity for saying that Llttre does define bosche, and defines It as ulcer or pea tilential tumor. M. Joran thinks It related to the Latin bucca, which means first the cheek, regarded as puffable thing, and then, according to Harper's Latin dictionary, "one who mis nis cheeks in speaking, a declaim er, bawler," and also, "one who stuffs out bis cheeks In eating, a parasite,' xne new Kepuuiio.

Hanging Called Decorous, Springfield, 111. Mayor Davis, of Murphysboro, 111., said Thursday that he would preside at an Indignation meeting a s protest because Governor Dunne granted a SO-day reprieve to Elston Scott, who wa to have hanged Friday. The governor reprieved Scott because of reports that a recent hang ing had been a spectacle. "The gov ernor was misled. Everything at the hanging of Joe Deberry was conducted with the utmost decorum," said the mayor. Portland. Dollar wheat was again in evidence In the local market. Ten thousand, bushels of November blue- stem changed hands at the Merchants' Exchange at this price. Another sale of 10,000 bushels of bluestem for this month's delivery at S9Vi cent was posted. Country dealing at about the same basis or higher has been report ed for several days. One lot was bought in Eastern Oregon, a special transaction, at equal to 11.02. By consistently holding out for high er price the farmers of the North west have succeeded in forcing the market up 8 to 10 cent a bushel since the first of the month, and this In the face of a steadily rising freight mar ket.

WILL SUPPLY OWN MUNITIONS federal Yards Will Compete to Stop Excessive Profits. NO INTENTION TO MONOPOLIZE WORK Secretary States Auxiliaries Manned and Supplied by Americans Are Necessary to Good Navy. Raleigh, N. C Secretary Daniels In a speech at the North Carolina State fair said that the administration nro- posed to equip It shipyard and ar senals so they could compete with pri vate plant under the national defense program. No monopoly was Intended, he said, but this measure would be adopted as a check against excessive profits for private manufacturers.

Henry nodded, and as he handed his order to the waiter, said: "Yes, and bring the lady a hassock." "One hassock?" asked the waiter, with what Henry thought more than ordinary interest, as he nodded in the affirmative. Still the waiter did not go but brushed the tablecloth with a towel and rearranged the articles on It several times, while hi face got red. i Then he came around to the hus band's side, and, speaking in a whis per, said: "Say, mister, I haven't beep here long, and I'm not on to all these things.

Among the reoelpts were several ship ment of good Tokay, which brought 90 cent to SI a crate. Concords were scarce and sold at 15 cents. Califor nia grapes were unchanged. Huckleberries continue more er less of a drug on the market, and though Quoted at 4 if 5 cents, are hard to move. with government yards. This tend to secure competitive prices and ore- vent combinations among private cor porations to charge higher prices than conditions justify." Mr. Daniels said that the govern ment paid 80 cents a pound to a gov ernment manufacturer a tew years ago to make powder, but the navy was now making It at a cost ot about 25 cents a pound. Torpedoes and mines, he said, were also being manufactured by the government at a great saving of money. "It has been ascertained by a special commission that the navy," he contin ued, "with a modern plant, can manu facture armor plate for 8230 to $260, as against the non-competitive prices of $425 to $486 a ton charged in the last contract. Experience in Europe teaches that the navy should no longer rely on private manufacturers for DroJectllea. If congress approves, we will erect a large factory which will turn out a large product of 14-Inch armor-piercing shells, as well as smaller projec tiles, this will insure better shells and better competition." Tbe secretary particularly directed attention to the lack of ship in the American merchant marine to carry American products to those who need it and are willing to pay for it. "What the navy needs, and in case ot trouble would need sorely, he add' ed, "are auxiliaries properly built and equipped with trained Americans. A merchant marine with foreign crews is not an American need, either for commerce or lor defense." string of kites to an altitude of 1,600 feet, Message transmitted from the set of Held wireless attached to this kite-supported aerial were received 160 miles away with distinctness, al though tbe ordinary range of the set was only 25 miles.
