Charles Kucera, a Bohemian, Jailed
for non-support of his wife, Is Just
Kettlng adapted to being out of Jail
again. He haa been a regular reel-
dent of tho county baatllo for nine
months.
Along last winter, Kucera was
charged with tho crime of letting his
wife and children go hungry. He
was tried, and sentenced to nlnfl
months. Tho Jail officials treated him
like other prisoners for the first
three or four months then Kucera
bocamo a trusty.
Deputy Low tells how he was sent

away that ho couldn't get back be
fore Low wanted to go home, and the
deputy would have to wait an hour or
so for his trusty to come trooping In.
Ho novcr ran away in fact, he would
not run away If given the chance.
The nine months slowly passed,
and the date of Kucera's liberation
drow near. At last It came, and tho
doors were opened to the Bohemian.
He sighed a few times, and walked
out.
And the best part of It was that
whnn he was cood ana outsiae ne
didn't want to go. He hung around
outside the Jail gates all day, like a
lost bird, wanting to get back to his

ly waited to be shut up again.

NEW YORK, Nov. 4. This winter
U going to be a very fine time for
everybody to keep well, because the
drug famine precipitated by the
European war has greatly increased
the high cost of being HI.
"Some of our best professional In
valids have experienced sudden recov
ory recently, and we have reason to
believe the experience was superin
duced by the prices of prescriptions,"
remarked a New York physician.
The big drug firms, In spite of in
creasing prices on some drugs of more
than 300 per cent, cannot supply the
demand, because there Is no supply.
Quinine has Jumped from 30 cents
to $2.25 an ounce; glycerine, from 20
to 58 cents a pound; cod liver oil,
from S40tof80a barrel; sage, from
5 cents to 35 cents a pound. Sweet
herbs, bromides, potassium perman
ganates, olive oil, sarsaparilla, and
many other drugs have gone 'way up.
Some drugs cannot be obtained for

SEAMAN'S LAW
IN EFFECT TODAY
LA FOLLETTE BILL WILL DRIVE
AMERICAN SKIPPING FROM
THE SEA IS CLAIM WILL TRY
TO REPEAL MEASURE
United Press Service
WASHINGTON, D. C, Nov. 4.
The La Follette seamen's law, which
shipping Interests have complained
will drive American shipping from the
seas because of the alleged unreason
able equipment and life saving appar
atus required by It for all American
registered ships, goes Into effect to
day-
There haa been much discussion
and several opinions by government
officials concerning various phases of
the law.
An effort to have tba law repealed
by congress this winter will be op
posed by the legislators who drafted
tnokUJ.
United Press Service
WASHINGTON, D. C, Nov. 4.
Secretary of Commerce Redfleld, dis
cussing the seamen's act, that Is caus
ing so much discussion at shipping
points, said that whatever the effects
of the law may be, the fact Is un
deniable that during the last six
months an increasing and unprece
dented number of ships for foreign
aud domestic trade have been ordered I
by American builders.
"More ships are being built in the
American shipyards today than ever
before in history," he said
Redfleld stated that leniency wilt
be shown the violators of the act
until ship owners have time to meet
the conditions.
According to reports from San
Francisco, many experienced sailors
were unable to ship because of fail
ure to qualify under the seaman's
act. Many protests have been made
against the measure.

LONDON, Nov. 4. An early fall of

the Bulgarians occupy th city. ,, The
Austro-Germans and the Bulgarians
are but a- few miles away, and it Is re
ported the outer fortifications have
fallen. $ Tt
It Nlsh falls nothing Is left the
Serbs but retreat to the westward, If
the way Is open. Otherwise, it" is pre

STORMS
NEARING
SAY OLD TIMERS
LONG BRIGHT DAYS OF FALL
NEARLY OVER, ACCORDING TO
WEATHER PROPHETS HARD
WINTER PREDICTED
According to the "old timers,"
who have watched Klamath weather
since the days of the Modoo War, the
fall days are Just about over and
snow Is just in the offing. They have
various ways of knowing most of
which are beyond the understanding
of the "cheecvaco," but they are sure
that the warm, sunlit days that hare
been so numerous recently are Just
about over.
They say that the clouding up o
mornings and the clearing off at noon
with a bank of cloud again at even
ing, are infallible Indications. They
know It by the way the geese are
flying by a thousand other little
things beyond the wit of everyone
but an "old timer."
According to the Indians, as well as
other old residents, a hard winter
can be expected. Snow deep enough
for sledding, and loe thick enough
for skating, and much rainfall In the
beginning, are some of the predictions.
United Press Jervice ta
PARIS, Nov. 4. The Nlsh
mlnique, dated Sunday, says that, the
Austro-Germans were attacking; om
thesiorthrn front,, particularly, om
thsuxlghuwlaj, -where': ts'attlr la
fierce. The Serbians at the Morova
River positions were assaulted,, bnt
with no results.
The .Serbians took positions in-
South Kragujevac. In the NIanwa
Valley the allied left was forced' to
retire, but in the center we repulsed
the Bulgars, who retreated toward
Bela and Palanda.
Thus on the fall of Nlsh depend
the fate of Serbia, The Teutonic al
lies will without doubt make n des
perate effort to take this stronghold,
for it means that the Serbian amy Is
practically trapped, with but one way",
to the west, open, and a strong, army'
to combat on this front.
Apparently the Serbs are resisting
fiercely, and although the outer fortl
flcatlons have fallen, the city has still
a good chance to withstand the as
sault. Whether It will prove Invul
nerable to the German siege guns Is
an issue that may decide th entire
outcome of th war.
