The lhousaiids of civilians interned hi Uernmny and Kng:lund may be released and the difficult problem of concentration camps solv ed altogether if n phui now under consideration is adopted. The idea is to exchange all civilians on parole not to serve during the war. For some time the (.lerman and Itritish authorities, tli rough the in termediation id' the American ambas sador at Iterlin, James W. (ierard, have been working on a proposal to exchange nl interned civilians above the military age, l". While negotiations in regard to ex change of Ihe older men were hang ing; fire and new difficulties and tie lays were arising, it was suddenly discovered the (lerman authorities were willing- to take into con-idera-tion a proposal for a -general ex change under parole. "HOI 1 SISTER IS PLEASING FEATURE To watch llesate Harrlscalo play a role that calls tor depth of feeling, .seriousness of thought and yoncerlty of purpose Is always a pleasure.

It was rumored that the horses were wanted for the crack cavalry troops of Italy, noted for their brilliant horse manship, and secret agents of the gov ernment havo eben Investigating the mat tor. both with a view of preventing violations of neutrality, and to see that tho supply was not depleted so as to cripple the cavalry forces of tho United Stales tu (heir operations along the Mexican border, hut yesterday, as the outcome of a quiet but thorough inves tigation by a reporter of this paper, the mystery was solved and the fact ascer tained that these horses were being sought for the cowgirl race at the corn ing Jackson County Fair, September K! to Hi. each contestant having her boosters on tho lookout for the very best horses obtainable.

A curious exchange arrangement has been made between Dutch and Belgian farmers on the'frontier. Last year the German troops in Belgian territory made it exceedingly diffi cult for the Dutchmen, who owned or rented land over the border to harvest their crops and, profiling by the experience then gained. many Hol landers have this year, at any rate lu the province of Liinhurg, entered into agreements with Uelgiaus owning lands on Dutch territory under which the latter are harvesting their crops and vice versa. Tho parties con cerned do not always get their xeeat share, hut the electric frontier bar rier, wjilch runs along the enlir? Bel gian frontier up to and along the river Mcuso, has practically forced the respective owners to make ar rangements whereby each can remain in his own country. For nothing of any sort or kind is allowed over or through the five-fold row of wires that stands about seven feet 'high. So anxious are the Ger mans that, n close paling is placed oven in the little brooks that run over the border Into Holland, so as to exclude any possibility of parcels of letters or documents being flouted down to the Dutch side, i Aviator Pays Foe Homage ISF.ULIX, Sept. .").

Sept. li (On board tho president's apoela) train) President Wilson wan return ing to Washington today enthusiastic over the reception accorded hliu in Kentucky, West Virginia nnd Vlrr Itinia yesterday, lie is duo to arrive at the national capital at two o'clock this afternoon ant) will remain there until Friday when he goes to Atlantic City, N. J., to address the national Anierlnun Woman Suffrage Associa tion. Then he will motor to hong Branch, X. J., and docs not expect to return to Washington for more than a month. With the' present session of con gress practically over, the president considers tho campaign on from his standpoint. Last night ho pawed through the territory In which Charles IS.' Hushes, tho republican presidential nominee, speaks today. At Lexington, Ky a crowd of several thousand persons with a band cheered him continuously until his train pulled out. N Today tiie president continued to refuse to make political speeches on the present trip because he went to Hodgenville. Ky., to honor Abraham Lincoln. He expressed his attitude to a crowd last night nt Winchester, Ky., which demanded a speech. "I did not come down here on a speech-making tour," ho said. ,"God bless you all." The cheering of the largo crowds at every station through which the president passed, caused him to smile broadly and shake hands with as many as possible. "I never re ceived such receptions," he remarked. After the Atlantic City speech ttie president has no engagements until September 20, wliea ho goes to St. Louis. During his. stay at Long Branch, M. J., however, he will see many delegations and write several political letters. (Wenutcheu Daily World.) 'Wenutehee is drawing some of Medford's most skilled packing-house foremen,'' .said Arthur M.
