WASHINGTON, Aug. 21 The Ger
man government now rests on the
"left" or radical side of the Reich'
etag. This Is the information brought
to the United States past the censor
ship by no less authority than Miss
Emily Green Baich, formerly pro
fessor at Vassar, and now one of the
two American members of the League
for Continuous Mediation at the
Hague.
The fact Is probably more lmpor-
taut than it might appear to many.
The power of government comes
through the parliamentary body
which In Germany Is the Reichstag.
For years the German government
has beon sustained by the support of
the "right" or conservative groups.
These are composed of representa
tives of the upper and middle classes,
the propurty intorests, the church and
the business men and banking in
terests. The "loft" or radical groups
are mado up of the socialists and
liberal representatives of the working
class and the peasants. The Reich
stag, like othor parliamentary bodies
In Europe, Is not controlled by any
single political party, but depends for
a majority on combinations made be
tween political groups. Only in this
way can the appropriations and taxa
tion measures bo passed, and without
taxation no government can exist,
The Chancellor Is the responsible gov
ernment official, who must secure the
support of a majority In the legisla
tive body. i
The significance of the passing of
power to the radical groups is that
the German temper toward peace is
apt to be much altered as a result.
The Socialists and progressive groups
are much more favorable at an early
peace than are tho groups represent
ing the military clement the junk
ers and other conservative repre
sentatives. In this connection, I am told by
Charles R. Crane, who Is probably one
of tho best informed men in tho
United States on Russian affalr.i, that
at the present time the Duma Is the
real Russian government. When the
war broke out the Duma was a repre
sentative body only :n name, tho real
power resting In the ancient Russian
bureaucracy. This bureaucratic gov
ernment ha3 failed to meet the crisis
and for the first time In its history
the government of Russia rests on
the Duma.
TO
, MADRID, Spain, Auk- 21. An in
crease in the Spanish army to IHU.OOO
inen on peace fouling is provided for
in n military reorganization hill which
soon will be presented to parliament
by the minister of war,' General
Luque. This calls for an increase
over the present force of 10,(10(1 men.
Vnder the new plan (18,000 men will
be garrisoned in Morocco.
The reserves of the active army will
permit rnpi.l mobilization of .100,000
men. The project provides for offi
cers sufficient for a reserve army
of 000,000.
BABES ARE DYING
4 ClIlfAdO, AuK. -M The headless
body of Mrs. Hosario Cosentino and
two children, a baby about six
months old and another child a year
old, apparently dying from starva
tion, were found in an apartment in
West Twenty-fourth street today.
Police believe the woman bail been
(Implied to death with an axe or
liati'bet. There were no wounds on
the children. The woman has been

FIRST AUTO RIDE KFLLS

SAI.KM, Va., Aug, 21. A. W.
Garner of I)ruersvil!e was AO years
old before he ventured to take a ride
in an automobile, and today he is

"Hold your horses, the elephants

the giddiest, gnyest, erandest.
glitteringest galaxy in the whole
wide, wonderful world is trekkina this
way and will spread its acres of tents
here on Monday, September 11, for
one performance only, Saturday at 10
u. m. If one doesn't infer from this
that reference is made to tho Bur
num & Bailey greatest show on earth
the publicity man will regard the case
as hopeless. 1
The first advertising ear is in this
eily today and more than a score of
experts are spreading with tack and
hammer and pasto and brush the
flaming- lithographic tidings of the
approach of the big truvcliuir amuse
ment institution. They arc under the
direction of Arthur E. Digss, a well-
known circus advertising specialist.
This is the innovation of novelty
year, the greatest of all seasons. More
railroad cars arc required to trans
port the show, bigjfor tents nre rais
ed, more area is needed to accommo
date the show than ever before. In
fact, the circus litis reached a point
where it is the despair of many of
the smaller railroads and taxes their
facilities to the limit, for cighty-nino
cars arc needed to convey the gigan
tic canvas vugrnnt from town to
town. . ,
There's material enough in this
year's circus to make a dozen cir
cuses of the . old days. A "big top"
080 feet long, nearly IfiOO employes,
three rings, four elevated platforms,
icres ot aerial apparatus, n 108-eage
menagerie, 750 horses, forty elo
phants, a street parade three miles
long!
The stereotyped "grand entrco,"
with which the circuses were content
to open their program for many
years, has been permanently elimin
ated from the Barnum & Ilailey tour
nament. This season the nreniu en
lertninment is inaugurated by the
pectaole, "Persia or, the Pageants
of the Thousand and One Nights."

seventeen deaths and thirty-two new
cases.
BOSTOX, Mass., Aug. 21. Sprend

been cheeked temporarily at least,
according to reports received by the
state department of health today.

n the last forty-eight hours, offic

'aMany peoplohave a weak spot.
Too often it's a bad back.
Twinges follow every sudden twist.
Bull aching keeps up, day and
night.
Backache is often from weak kid
neys.
In such a case a kidney medicine
Is needed.
Doan's Kidney Pills arc for weak
kidneys.
For backache and urinary Ills.
Wedford people recommend the
remedy.
W. W. Mansfield, fih and game
warden. 121 Roosevelt ave., Mcdford
says: "I used to he subject more or
loss to kidney trouble. My kidneys
acted too freely and during the nisM
I was obliged to get up every little
while. My back ached and at times
I couldn't get in any position to ease
the misery. Finally I began taking
Doan's Kidney Pills and I found that
they were all that was represented of
them. After I finished a few boxes,
my kidneys were normal and my bark
felt as strong as ever."
Price 50 cents at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for a kidney remedy get
Doan's Kidney Pills the same that
Mr. Mansfield had. Foster-Milburn
