Diplomatic ethics, at least, also requir

As Berlin Reports It.
Berlin, via Sayville wireless. .March
I Evacuation "for special reasons" of
part of the Gorman advanced positions
on both sides of the Anere, were re
ported in today's official statement
from German headquarters.
Troops which were removed have
been placed in other positions, already
prepared, it is stated.
The statement says:
"Carefully acting rear guard posts
hindered the enemy troops, which grop
ed forward with the greatest hesitirt ion,
from occupying without fighting a strip
of land which was abandoned by us and
which is now lying in ruins.
"Yielding in the face of a numerical
ly superior attack, which had been or
dered, these niiunr detachments inflict
ed considerable sanguinary losses to the
enemy and captured 11 officers, 174
men from the ranks and four machine
guns. They still dominate today the
forefield of our position."
In the eastern war theatre there was
nothing of importance reported.
To Make No Distinction.
Amsterdam, .March 1. There is to be
no distinction made by German sub
marines in sinking neutral ships in the
barred zoue and the fact that the Am
erican steamer Orleans safely passed
through the danger zone is not to be at
tributed to any w ithholding of Oer-,
ninny's weapon. Comment's of Berlin
newspapers received here today, made
this clear.
Nearly all quoted Foreign Secretary
Zimmerman as asserting:
"We make absolutely no distinction.
Our determination is unshakable, since
that is the only way to finish the war
this summer, a desire in which we all
join."
The Berlin newspapers assumed that
fogs, which were officiully reported ns
having delayed the Orleans' arrival,
also hindered operation of the subma
rines. The fact that the I.aconia was
sunk at night, contrary to usual sub
marine eperntious, was referred to as in
dicating the adaptability of submarines
nnd the difficulty all vessels will have
in escaping them.
ienn troops were standing off a street
inob in April, 1910.
After the battle General Jose Do la
l.uz. Herrera, commander of the Car
raaziftl garrison, made affidavit be
fore American army officers in which
he charged that German Consular
Agent Koch at I'arrnl had "worked ui
I the fight." The affidavit has been
filed with the war department at
Washington.
Sinee Villa 's latest mysterious dis
appearance, nuthentie information as
to the bandit chieftain's wherealiouts
has not been obtained. A report has
been received here that General Mur
guia, Carranza commander, has ar
rested Dr. A. Schroeder, :i phvsieian at
I'arrnl, charging him with hiding Villa
and giving him medical treatment.
Villa whs said to have been wounded
in a skirmish with government troop
before his "disappearance."
Mother-Made, Quick i
I Acting Cough Syrup

Mothers, you'll never know what 'ou
ate miRsing until you make up this in
expensive, quick-acting cough syrtrp and
try it. Children love its pleasant taste
and nothing else will loosen a cough ot
chest cold and heal the inflamed ot
swollen throat membranes with such
ease and promptness. It's equally ae
good for grown-ups as for children!
This splendid cough syrup is made by
pouring 2V4 ounces of l'inex (50 cents
worth), into a pint lnittle and filling the
bottle with plain granulated sugar
syrun. This gives you a full pint a
family supply of much better cough
remedy than vou could buy ready-made
for $2..r)0 a clear saving of $2.
The moment it touches the inflamed,
cold-congested membranes that line the
throat and air patc.iges, the healing be
gins, the phlegm loosens, soreness
leaves, cough spasms lessen and soon
disappear altogether, thus ending a
cough quicker than you ever thought
possible. Hoarseness and ordinary
coughs are conquered by it in 24 hours
or less. Excellent for bronchitis, wbt op
ing cough, spasmodic croup, bronchia!
asthma or winter coughs.
Pines is a highly concentrated com
pound of genuine Norway pine extract,
combined with guaiaeol and is famous
the world over for its quick heating
