STOMACH BITTERS
New York.—In the arrest of Albert
Fay, a lieutenaat in the German army,
and Waller Schulz, his brother-in-law,
police and federal secret service
agents believe they have detained
leaders in a plot to wreck American
munition plants and ships carrying
munitions.
According to Captain Tunney, of
the New York anarchists squad, Fay
confessed that he came here to work
out a plan for stopping the shipment
of munitions. He said, Tenuey avers,
that he was supplied with $2000 for
carrying out his operations. Papers
found iu his room showed he was a
German secret service agent.
A vast quantity of high explosives
were found in the prisoners' room in
Weehawken, N. J.
Both men are held on technical
charges of disorderly conduct. An ad
ditional charge of attempted bribery
may be made against Fay. He is said
to have offered $1000 to a police offi
cer for his release. He is said to have
offered an advance payment of $00
when the officer agreed to his proposi
tion.
Police who have been watching out
going vessels for explosives caused
the arrests.
Explosives and survey charts of New
York harbor are said to have been
found In their possession.
The men are declared to have been
testing a bomb in a small grove when
apprehended.
Five steel mines, said by the police
to belong to the prisoners, later were
found In a West Hoboken storehouse
Each was packed in a separate wood
case, and fitted with an attachment
which might be fastened to the Btern
of a ship by a wire. Contact with the
propeller of a ship, it is said, would
explode the mine.
Two cases found in the men's room
in Weehawken were filled with ex
plosives, letters written in German
and official looking documents. Among
the explosives were small sticks of
dynamite and various kinds of acid
used in the manufacture of explosives.
One of the papers, It Is asserted by
the police, showed Fay to be a lieuten
ant in the German army and connect
ed with the German foreign office on
the Wilhelmstrasse.
The police assert that the prisoner
had admitted the ownership of a high-
powered automobile and a Bpesdy mo
torboat, both of which are in Wee
hawken.

What a Bosche Is.
Until the war broke out few Ameri
cans had heard the word bosche or
boebe, the French soldiers’ nickname
for a German. It doesn’t appear In
the Academy's dictionary or in such
editions of Littré as most of us can
get hold of. In Delvau's slang diction
ary Its definition is "Mauvais sujet,
dans largot des petites dames, qul le
preferent au niuche” ; which last word
Delvau defines as “jeune hoinine poll,
doux, amiable, reserve." A letter from
Thomas Ogilvy to the Spectator sup
plies some additional information He
says M. Theodore Joran is his author
ity for saying that Littré does define
bosche, and defines it as ulcer or pes
tilential tumor. M. Joran thinks it
related to the Latin bu> ca, which
means first the cheek, regarded as a
puffabie thing, ami then, according to
Harper's Latin dictionary, "one who
fills his cheeks in speaking, a declaim
ed bawler." and also "one who stuffs
out his cheeks in eating, a parasite."

1000 Bulgars Killed in Bombardment.
London.—The bombardment of De-
deagach caused the death of ten civil
ians and more than a thousand sol
diers, and a large number of soldiers
were wounded, says a dispatch to the
Exchange Telegraph company from
Athens.
A large proportion of the military
casualties, the correspondent adds,
were in the barracks which housed
the Fortieth Bulgarian regiment. The
barracks were crowded with soldiers,
who were preparing for their meal,
when the bombardment was opened
at 1 o’clock with accurately aimed
shells, which demolished the barracks,
burying the occupants in the ruins.
Troops engaged in digging trenches
around the town also sustained heavy
losses.
Fires caused by the exploding shells
destroyed the railway station and sur
rounding buildings, doing enormous
damage. It is said that the entire loss
from the bombardment, which lasted
four hours, will be several million
pounds.
The correspondent says the bom
bardment was directed by aeroplanes,
Mrn. Mary Logan Tucker of Wash
ington, daughter of the late Gsn. John

MEXICAN BANDITS WRECK TRAIN,
BURN TRESTLE AND KILL TWO
Brownsville, Tex.— Mexican bandits
early Wednesday held up and robbed
a St. Louis & San Francisco passen
ger train, killing two persons and
wounding three others, near Olinlte,
seven miles north of here.
The dead:
H. H. Kendall, engineer.
United States cavalryman, name un
known.
The injured:
Dr. E. S. McCain, Cameron county
physician, probably fatally shot.
Harry Wallis, seriously wounded lu
abdomen.
Conductor P. E. Morgan, slightly
wounded.
Trestle is Burned.
A long trestle half a mile south of
the wreck was set afire half an hour
after the train was held up and almost
destroyed.
This hindered the progress of the
first detachment of troops which was
sent in pursuit so that the bandits had
ample time to flee into the brush.
Passengers who reached here on a
relief train said that the train was de
railed, that Mexicans poured Into the
coaches shouting “ Viva Pizana” and
commenced to shoot at the passen
gers.
Pizana. the man the bandits were
cheering, is supposed to be the leader
of the so-called “ Texas revolution”
nurtured under the "plan of San Die
go.” which last year contemplated the
seizure of border Btates and returning
them to Mexican rule.
A negro reached his home four
miles from Brownsville and gave the
first report of the wreck and killings.
Four companies of United States In
fantry were rushed to the scene by
special trains, followed by two troops
of cavalry.
The bandits were passengers and
set fire to the train. The Mexicans
severed the telephone line between
Brownsville and Villa Nueva, five
miles from here, which resulted not
only in delaying information reaching
Brownsville, but also Interfered with
communication with troop B, of the
Thirtieth Cavalry, on duty near the
scene of the holdup.
Strange Tragedy Comes to Light.
Canyonvllle, Or.—How an old trap
per. with his leg caught In a big bear
trap, perished alone and miserably in
the forest 17 years ago, was revealed
by the finding of a skeleton with a
bone held in the rusted trap, on the
Fortune Branch Creek, and reported
here Wednesday.
The skeleton Is believed to be that
of a once well-known character named
Blynn, who had a cabin at the head of
the creek, about a mile from where
the skeleton was found. The place la
about half way between here and Glen
dale.
Patriotic Appeal ia Made.
Los Angelee.—Going further than
merely serving notice that an embargo
has been declared. E. M. Blanford, a
special agent of the federal govern
ment, directed an appeal to arms and
munitions dealer! In the west to help
President Wilson atop further blood
shed In Mexico. "The Mexicans can
shoot away in a day all the ammuni
tion Mexican manufacturers can make
in a month," said Mr. Blanford, “ and
with the assistance of American deal
ers, further fighting in Mexico can
be promptly stopped.”
Churchman Bara Hatred.
London.—“ The wall of a church is
not an appropriate place to perpetuate
hatred,” was the reason given by Sir
Philip Wllbraham, chancellor of the
diocese of Cheater, when refusing to
permit a memorial tablet to a victim
of the Lusitania In a Holyoke church
to bear the Inscription, "who was mur
dered on the Lusitania by the Ger
mans. ” The chancellor then suggest
ed that the inscription should read.
“ Who lc.it his life when the Lusitania
waa torpedoed by the Germans." This
was agreed to.
Hanging Called Decorous.
Springfield, 111.— Mayor Davis, of
Murphysboro, III., said Thursday that
he would preside at an Indignation
meeting as a proteat because Governor
Dunne granted a 30-day reprieve to
Elston Scott, who was 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.
Serbian Women to Fight.
Chicago.—John R. Palandech, Serb
ian leader and editor, addressing a
meeting of Serbians here, declared
that an army of 250,000 Serbian wo
men. equal In number to the entire
regular Serbian army, would soon be
on the firing line against the German
and Austrian forces.
"N o women In the world are more
courageous than the Serbian women,”
Mr I’alandcrh said, "and thev are not
going to alt at home and see their
fathers husbands and brothers driven
out of Serbia.”

Raleigh, N. C.—Secretary Daniels in
a speech at the North Carolina State
Fair said that the administration pro
posed to equip its shipyards and ar
seuals so they could compete with pri
vate plants 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.
"The government has invested many
millions of dollars in navy-yards," said
the secretary, "and unless this invest
ment is utilized for new construction,
much of it is wasted. If the govern
ment is prepared to construct naval
craft, private shipbuilding companies
in making contracts must compete

with government yards. This tends
to secure competitive prices aud pre
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 few years
ago to make powder, but the navy was
now making it at a cost of 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 Davy," he contin
ued, “ with a modern plant, can manu
facture armor plate for $230 to $260, as
against the non-competitive prices of
$425 to $486 a ton charged in the last
contract. Experience iu Europe teaches
that the navy should no longer rely on
private manufacturers for projectiles.
If congress approves, we will erect a
large factory which will turn out a
large product of 14-Inch armor pierc
ing shells, as well as smaller projec
tiles. This will Insure better shells
and better competition.”
The secretary particularly directed
attention to the lack of ships 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
of 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 for defense."

Yale Bara Club Drinking.
New Haven. Conn.— Notices have
been sent out by the Yale faculty to
all clubs, secret societies and "frat"
organizations to which Yale under-
grad uatea belong. Informing them that
after November 1 they will not be al
lowed to serve liquor In their elub.
society or "frat" house. The faculty
order is expected to put an end to so
cial drinking of undergraduate*. A
new state law provides that all club*
and similar organizations which wish
to serve liquor must secure a special
license.
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 99>4 cents 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 $1.02.
By consistently holding out for high
er prices the farmers of the North
west have succeeded In forcing the
market up 8 to 10 cents a bushel since
the first of the month, and this In the
face of a steadily rising freight mar
ket. The last steamer reported taken
was at loos, but It Is stated that own
ers are now asking, with the Canal
closed. 120 to 12Ss. Exporters con
tinue to buy, howevor, and they are
compelled to pay the prices farmers
demand.
The blueBtem purchases at the Ex
change were at advances of 1 to 1 Vi
cents over Mouday's prices. Other
bids for the near months were un
changed.
December offers, which
were too low when first posted on
Monday, were adjusted to bring them
Into line with the other deliveries.
Barley bids were raised 25 to 60
cents. Oats were irregular, from 25
centR lower to 25 cents higher.
Patent flour was still available at
the former price, but the market was
firm. The export market waa reported
inactive.
Reviewing conditions In the Euro
pean wheat markets, Broomhall says:
“ Strength In wheat Is due entirely
to American advance and heavy Con
tinental takings, but the advance Is
considered extraordinary in the fare
of big American crops and strong
freights. Importers are obliged to pay
unexpected prices and It la feared that
this advance will continue, or at least
as long as Continental buyers follow
the advance."
Northwestern Hop* In Demand.
Portland.—About 1000 bales of hop*
were bought In the Northwest Wed
nesday. All the details of the tran
sactlons were not available, but It Is
understood the price# were the same
as those current for the past week
or inure. Ix>uis Lachinund purchased
300 bales more of the MrLoughlln crop
at Independence. The McKay lot of
180 bales at Ht. Paul waa alao sold.
Two lota of Western Washingtons,
those of George Richter and Fremont
Annls. were disposed of. Yakima sales
included the Stewart crop of 125 bales
and the Slavin lot of 76 bales.

"W ill you have oysters?" asked the

“ Yea," said the little woman, as she

floor, "and, Henry, I want a hassock."
Henry nodded, and as he handed
his order to the waiter, Bald: "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 his face got

Paper Shirts for Soldiers.
Paper shirts, made in Japan, are
now being served out to the Russian
soldiers for use in the cold and wet
weather, which Is rapidly approaching
on the eastern front. A number of
these paper shirts wore used by the
Russians last winter, and they proved
to be much warmer and cheaper thau
ordinary shirts.
The paper used Is called "hashlkl-
razu" and Is made from the bark of
a mulberry tree. It lias been used by
the Japanese army and people for
many years, its only drawback being
that it can not be washed.
