Khaki, field grey and German green as invis ible colors for armies are dismal fail ures. Fourteen months of war in the field has proved that the most invisible army of all would be one whose soldiers were clad in models of Joseph 's eoat. Such at least is the verdict of a high British officer, who in months at the front has made a study of the invisibil ity of colors. In clothing an army, the highest point of invisibility he says would be obtained by garbing each man in a dif ferent color; one in green, the next in blue, another in grey, one in red and so on 'alternately, according to the col or expert's scheme.-If this proved im practicable each man should be dressed in a combination of soft toned colors. Either scheme, says the officer, would enable an entire army corps to merge inconspicuously into any background. Like the Scottish kilts, tho olive-drab khaki of the British army today is based on custom, not science, he de clared. Khaki originated in the British Indian army and later got to England. The Europeon war has shown that it is far more satisfactory on tho Indian plains or the African veldt than limned against the landscape of France or Belgium. Observers unanimously have reported that against the snows of winter or the green foliage of spring or summer, the khaki-clad Tommy is a conspicuous tar get. The same is declared to be true of the greyish green of the German uniforms. l?n9l!?!rM A HewllerbalSkinBalm 1W UJrl&v.

In addition to this sum 1567 days of volunteer work were contributed by the residents of the different districts of the countv and 005!4 days of volunteer work were done with teams. A total of 52,910 yards of gravel were hauled and spread upon the roads of this county xluring this time and 20, 384 yards of crushed rock were hauled and rolled. County Clerk CieMhar is at present editing data from the different supervisors of tho county as to the amount of work done in their respective districts but their reports will not be in for several weeks. Mr. Gehlhar yi instituting methods to find out exactly what it costs the county to plnc a yard of gravel in any particular '.ipot in any particular road in this ctjinty and by his system he hopes to be able to show the super visors how to get the most for their money, borne supervisors are doing more work than others for the same amount but all have different condi tions snd circumstances to meet in their own districts. The county court con siders that it will be of great value in estimateing the cost of rebuilding or re pairing Bny road to know how much it costs to deliver crushed rocks or gravel in that vicinity and also the figures will be of uso in comparison with other methods of building road. The total amount expended on the roads of the county for the first 11 months was apportioned as follows: Macadamizing $ 44,994.97 Graveling 80,744.96 Bridges (over 10 feet) 13,910.70 General repairs 57,li34.t6 New tools and machinery . . 14,045.06 Supervisor's salary 12,795.56 Total $251,922,26 Number of yards of gravel hauled 52,910.

The witness stated that this train crossed the bridge daily and carried hundreds of passengers. He said that, if tho job had been carried out, the train, ns well as the bridge, would have been destroyed nnd many lives sacri ficed. J. J.

Trial Resumed of Steam ship Officials Today (Cortinued from rage One.) For this rcnaon, it was further hint ed certain evidence connecting him with supplying German commerce raid ers nny not be introduced. The department is reported to haw Informed I'nited (States District Attor ney Marshall that Bny-ed acted within his rights In distributing certain funds for supply purposes. Moreover, it was understood that the department sug gested it would be displeased if Boy wl were given prominence In the present trial. "The government fan hardly expect to classify Boy-ed os one of the al leged conspirators, " Defense Attorney Kand said today. "Suppose he did ask that supplies be transferred to Maria Queszadaf Does that show any connection of the Hamburg-American lino with her clear ance papers!" Hand steadfastly denied that the de fendants had anything to do with this vessel, which has appeared in this case as clearing out of Newport News as supply ship for raiders, with Boy-ed as the paymaster for her venture Judge Howe ruled that evidence con cerning that vossel will be stricken out at the conclusion of the government's case unless tho defenders are definitely linked up with the transaction. George Atkinson, of Baltimore, who had something to do with coaling here, admitted that as far as he knew, the defendants had nothing to do with the Queszada. Claim Juror Talked. New York, Nov. 20. Because, it is alleged, a juror talked of the case, there appeared today a possibility of h, mistrial in the hearing of the govern ment charges against officials of the Hamburg-American steamship lines for alleged customs violations in supplying Gorman commerce raiders. Counsel on neither side, however would discuss the possibility. The defense, claiming that the gov ernment has proved no conspiracy against the officials nor against Cap tain Boy-ed, naval attache of the Ger man embassy, is considering "stand ing pat" without oifering evidence. Boy-ed admits that $1,500,000 which was spent on 12 suppH- ships which was cont out b-' tne liambiirg-Amcrican men was an "emergency'" fund which the German government sent. ' Crowely Is Arrested. San Francisco, Nov. 26. Charged with implication in anti-ally bomb plots, headed by German Lieutenant Robert Fay, at New York, C. C. Crow ley, investigator for District Attorney Fickert, and formerly head of tho Southern Pacific secret service, was arrested here today by federal officials and they claimed he traveled about the country arranging the placing of bombs on ships and in munition fac tories. In addition to the claims that he was arranging these matters, Crowley is charged with fomenting strife in plants wliere munitions are made. He was enabled to perform hiB alleged work more readily, it is said, because of his role of detectives. He was arrested two days ago, but the fact was kept secret whilo the gov ernment authorities obtained furthor information. Startling disclosures of activities in San Francisco are expected soon. In vestigators are said to have informa tion of plots to wreck ships leaving here with munitions or supplies. Officials intend to grill Crowley thoroughly in tho hope of learning who are the "higher ups" in the Fay plot. It is thought here that wealthy Germans may have had a hand in the alloged conspiracy, and officials also want to know if Naval Attache Boy-ed of the German embassy had any con nection with Crowley's alleged activ ities, Tho case is under direct observation of tho Washington government which recently dispatched a special investiga tor to unearth all possible evidence. Crowley hns been specially watched in what authorities suy were a number of mvstifving trips. Authorities suspect that Crowley niny have had a hand In destruction of a barge, loaded with munitions, at Se attle recently, while they think ho was directly concerned, too, in explosions aboard ships leaving N'ew York nnd in eastern munitions idants. Al'U'r Crowley s nrrest, Walter Westman, of a local launch nnd tug boat company, told of a man claiming to be a stevedore who tried to rent a lanucii while the barge, Inter destroyed at Seattle, wus taking on munitious here, Westninn refused to rent one. Officials now believe the alleged stevedore Inter secured another launch an-l placed a time bomb, causing the Seattle explosion. Westman will try to identify Crowley as this man. tHher information tended to make officials believe Crowley had worked at the Hercules I'owdor iconipnny plant to gain a knowledge of explosives. While it is understood tho govern ment will not prosecute Crowley if he divulges the names of "higher ups," his case will probably be pressed to the limit ii' he refuses. Tho warrant diarizes Crowlev sent $250 to a man in Seattle to accomplish the destruction of the Seattle barge and $fl0 twice to the same innn at Ta coma to wreck war munitions. Crowley declares ho is innocent of the charges against him, but if he has made nuy detailed statements the gov ernment authorities have withueld them. German Consul Bopp, declared this afternoon he did not know Crowley and suggested Ksy at New ork was the Crowley's alleged activities.
