MAUD ALLEN,
LONDON', May DO. During the
trial totlity of Noel l't'iubcrton-KiN-ing",
member of parliament for Knst
Hertfordshire and publisher of the
newspaper Vigilante, who is charged
with libelling Maud Allen, u' dancer,
and J. P. Orein, niiinaficr of the In
lependcnt theater, in connection with
n proposed production of "Salome,"
Miss Allnn testified on cross-examin-itlion
that site was a sister of Theo
dore Dtirnnt, who was handed in Cali
fornia in Juntmry, J 8(18, for murder.
Maud Allan is an American dancer,
who first won renown in London in
1008 with a "Salome dance," in a tiiu
fin hall of the English capital.
The man who she admitted in the
trial at London was her brother, was
convicted of killiriLT Ithinciie Lnmont
in April, 18!).", and burying her body
beneath the flooring ill Kninianiiel
church, Herkelcy, Cal. Previous to
liis ari'c.st for this murder, lJuranl
had been tuken into custody on sus
picion of connection wilh the death
of Minnie Williams, another young
pirl, whose body was found in the
tower of Kninianiiel church.
SAI.KM, May 30 Ilecause of the
lack of n (piomm the slate emergen
cy board did not convene Tuesday to
consider declaring a deficiency in the
fund of the stale lime board nnd milk
ing provision of n fund of $10,000 to
complete and operate the plant at
Gold Hill. Governor Withyconibc,
Secretary of Slate Olcolt, Slate
Treasurer Kav and K. K. Kubli,
chairman of the lower house, were
present. Five members were neces
sary tor a quorum.
Governor Withyconibc snid the
hoard is not likely to he called again
for a stcctnl purpose of considering
a fund for the lime hoard, but that
the question doubtless will have to
remain in oheyance until Hie emer
pency board is called for some other
purpose, when the. hmc Itonrtl's prti
imj-iiI also cau be taken up.
ROME, May 30. The trial of a
"new count of Monte Crlsto," now
In progress In Rome, has created
extraordinary Interest principally by
reason of the fact that Pope Benedict
figures In It.
Count Luea Cortese . of Naples,
whose splendid mode of life gave him
the title of "Luke the Magnificent,
is accused of defrauding the Latium
Central Credit bank out of $1,250.-
000 by means of worthless bills in a
sealed envelope.
The pope's Interest in the case
arises from the fact that the bank's
depositors consist largely of Catholic
peasants. Wishing to prevent the
failure of the bank, the pope came
forward and covered the deficit.
Count Luko created a sensation by
his cov.rt testimony. Ills profound
studies in metempsychosis and other
eastern lore, he said, havo led him to
the conviction that he Is destined to
restore Italy bo her ancient primacy
among nations.
He was a remarkable Ron Juan.
Ho traveled over Italy with a re
tinue ot beautiful women and 14
secretaries, who, he said, attended
only to "the .formal part" of his dut
ies. He was a grand figure In aristo
cratic society, and claims to have
dictated a fine tone to the morality
ot the Italian stage.
"Winsome smiles and passionate
courtships of lovely ladies put fresh
life into me." says "Luke the Magnif
icent." He confessed naively that he ex
pected King Victor to name him for
the senate in recognition of his patri
otic propaganda.
He sponsored -"vast syndicate
schemes, 'being aided, it is charged,
by an ex-magistrate, an ex-mayor
and others, who are on trial with
him. Several, hundred witnesses,
among them many famous persons,
are to appear, and the trial, which
is arousing as much Interest In Italy
as the Calllaux and Bolo Pasha cases
did In Paris, is likely to last all summer.
L
DAY OF PRAYER
WASHINGTON', May 30. Memo
rial Day this year hits taken on n
deeper significance. The day is con
secrated anew to the thousands who
recently have given their lives in per
haps the noblest cause for which
America ever has fought.
The nation thus commemorates the
sacrifice of her khaki-chid sons who
sleep in France and of her hoys who
were swallowed up in the cold waters
of the North Atlantic when German
torpedoes found Ihcir mark.
Although even the vanguard of the
expeditionary forces lias yet to ob
serve the first anniversary of its ar
rival in France, and even though a
great part of the lime the American
armies oversees has been given lo
(raining, the casualty list has began
to mount into the tlioiisnrtds. The
blood of American youth has been
spilled for the first lime on an F.uro
pcun battle field.
President Wilson formally has pro
claimed the day one of public huniil
ialion, fasting and praver. Through
out (he land, people are asked to
gather at their places of worship anil
pray for the victory of Hie American
armies.
J
WITH TDK AMKIilCAN AliMY IN
KKANTK, May 2S. (My the Asso
ciated Press.) Many of the Ameri
can soldiers who took part in the
sm ssl'til attack against the Ger
man lines near Montiliilicr today also
participated in (he repulse of the Ger
man raid against the American lines
Monday.
One participant in Monday's affair
is said to have been found today in
a shell hole in No Man's hind wilh
two wounded Germans as his pris
oners. He was unable to net hack to
the American lines Monday night, so
he stood guard over them until the
attack this morning liberated him and
secured (he prisoners tit lite Ameri
can". Lieutenant Irving W. Wood of Oak
land, Calif., said he did not see one
American fall during today's at
tack. "It was more exciting than a foot
ball cube,'' he added. "Wo have got
the Huns on Hie run. All we need is
more Americans and then wc shall
lick tliciu." ,
PARIS, May 30. In a little ceme
tery on a peaceful hillside near Un
American front are three graves,
each surrounded by a little wooden
lulling wilh a cross at one end.
Uefore them is n tablet bearing
this inscription in French:
"Here lie Hie first . soldiers of the
illustrious Hepnblic of the 1'nitod
Stales who tell on French soil for
Justice and Liberty, November 3,
1017." v '
The crosses hear the identification
discs of Private Hay of Glidden, la.,
Private F.nright of Piltslimg, Pa.,
and Private liresliaia of Kvansville,
!ml.
The resting place of these first
Americans lo give Ihcir lives in the
I'iglil for democracy has become a
shrine in the hearts of the French
people.
It was the scene today of a solemn
service in honor of the American he
roes. American and French soldiers
united in paying lliciu profound re
spect. Salutes were lired over the
graves mid they were buried under
floral tributes. The ceremony was
only a part of France's observance
of America's most solemn holiday.

MOSCOW, May 23. (By the As
sociated Press.) General Count Von
Mirbach, the German ambassador to
Russia. haB of late repeatedly assured
the soviet government of the dispo
sition of Gernianv lo cease its ag
gressive policy toward Russia, - and
there have been oilier Indications of
a change In the German atltude, in
the softened diplomatic relations.
Regardless of the ambassador's
promises, however, the German
troops are daily violating the bound
aries established by tlio Mrest-litovsk
treaty, and excusing such violations
by various pretexts.
Finnish white guards are now
pressing the Mourmau railway bard
at many points, with Gorman sup
port, but have been repulsed by the
red guards.
The Finish government Is strongly
urging that the Karelia government
in which Moorman Is located, be an
nexed to Finland.
The soviet government declares
that it is not willing that Russia
should be wholly at Germany's mercy.

A Business Man Says
NL1JOI. LABOR ATORIHS,
STANDARD OIL CO. (New Jersey),
BAVONNE, N. J.
Gentlemen: :
I have now much pleasure in stating, with full knowledge
of the importance of such a claim, that the benefit I have received
from the use of Nujol is incalculable.
While I am in the prime of life, I had suffered for a con
siderable time with constipation in an aggravated form, partly
induced fiom a sedentary occupation.
My knowledge of mechanical affairs responded to. the sug
' gestion of lubricating parts of the human system, and with the
idea in mind, I sent for a supply of Nujol.
A vrry few dixes affected a marked change in my condition,
but to thoroughly rehabilitate my system, I extended the treat
ment to more than one bottle, wilh the result that within a sur-
prisingly short time, regular and proper movements were obtained
and my health w.is improved generally.
I intend to always keep Nujol on hand for the correction
of any slight irregularity, and firmly believe that all cullering from
constipation and elderly people particularly will find it invaluable.
Vours very truly,
January to, 1917. (Name and address on request)
1
Enjoy the same healthful relief frrJm constipation that
is now benefiting the writer of this letter and thousands of
other grateful users. Simply try Nujol a few doses are
generally effective and mark how gently and surely ic
restores the natural regularity of the bowels.
Nujol relieves without artificial stimulation, griping, or
dangerous reaction. It is absolutely pure and drug-free.
Pleasant and safe to take, even for infants, invalids and old
folks. Obstinate or occasional cases soon yield to the action
of Nujol. Use this wonderful remedy and be "regular as
clockwork."
ABSOLUTELY HARMLESS
There are no substitutes there is only Nujol
At fvtry drug store. Send 50c. and wc ill ship
