Every Recognized Party Represented in Briand Ministry (By Daily News Leased Wire.) PARIS,~t.H*t.' 30.—A new French cabinet headed by Aristide Briand as premier and minister of foreign affairs came into existence last nlglit. The action taken yesterday In forming the cabinet was the culmination of deep popular senbirtient that at the supreme crisis of the war party division should give way to united action by all the parties in common support of the. government. As the result of the cabinet of Rene Vllianl being representative of only a few political parties the ministers presented their 'collective resignations and President Poincare immediately *'dia,rgq*d Aristide Briand with the formation of a new organization combining all elements. The new cabinet in personnel includes such venerable figures as Charles de Preycinet, who was one of Gambetta's aides in the upheaval of 1870; Jules Mellne. a former premier, who instituted the protective system of finance and' Leon Bourgeois, who ls known as the "grand old man of the Itadicul party," which has the largest membership in parliament. The jnodern element is represented by conspicuous leaders of all the political groups of the country. Thus t'he new coalition brings together the, elder and younger statesman, of France and in personnel represents all the history of modern I-Tance since the fall of Napoleon 111. The new body also Is notable in ha^iQB the popular military leader Cen. Gallieni, as head of the war office, and Rear Admiral Lacaze as head of the ministry of marine, borh of whom replace civilians.

NE WYORK, Oct. 29.-A special copyright cable to the World from London says: "A neutral just returned from residence in Germany today told the World correspondent that internal conditions tre are much'more serious than the world knew about. The food supply la causing trouble. The recent street riots in Berlin were ugly manifestations of the spirit among the people, especially the dependents of soldiers. Women attacked the pgllce. Many were Injured as well as many arrested before the riot was quelled. ''Soldiers' dependents have only 14 marks a week allowance, while butter Is four marks a pound, meat three, with other provisions proportionately dear. A state food monopoly, this observer claims, is surely coming, but the authorities are delaying It owing to the alarm lt would cause.

SERBS MAY RETIRE 10 MONTENEGRO MOUNTAINS Government Authorizes Aiv Other 100,000 HORE THAN 100,000 Action Follows Appeal By Kin£ for Recruits—175,- 000 Now Under Arms (By Daily News Leased Wire.) OTTAWA, Oct. 29.—Canada is to have an army of 250,000 men. The government tonight announced that it would authorize the raising of 100,000- additional troops, over and above the official authorization of 150,000 on July 6 last; This will bring the Canadian forces up to 250,000. While the number authorized up to July 6 last was only 150,000 men, 173,000 have already enlisted to date, the official authorization having thus been exceeded. An official statement issued by the government places the number ot- troops which have gone overseas, including the Bermuda contingent, at 101.5(H). In addition there are said to be 71,500 in training in various parts of the Dominion. The official statement says:' "Tlie government received through the governor-general on Oct. 25 a cable message from the secretary of state for the colonies.'setting forth the recent, appeal made by the King for an increase in the forces of the Empire whicli are required -to secure victory and enduring peace. "Since that date the government has secured fronj the various camps and enlistnte'tit"depots in Canada a statement pf the number of men already enlisted and under training in this country* as well as complete confirmation respecting the number despatched overseas."* Over 101,000 Are Overseasa. The estimate based on this information is as follows: "Forces despatched overseas, including small garrisons at Bermuda (St. Lucia), 101,500. Under training and on guard and outpost duty in Canada, 71,500. Total 173,000. "The forces actually authorized up to July 6 were 150,000 men. Having regard to the appeal issued 'by his majesty and taking into consideration the necessities of war, the government has concluded to increase tlie authorized force by 100,000 men. Accordingly an order in council has been passed increasing tbe authorized Canadian forces for the purpose of the war to 250,000. Steps will be taken in the immediate future to enlist the additional number of men required to bring the Canadian forces up to tlle number thus fixed." SYRIANS ARE IN DIRE NEED OF ASSISTANCE Twentyfive Thousand Mountaineers Have Taken Refuge, More Expected, Reports Consul in Persia. (By Daily News Leased Wire.) LONDON, Oct. 29.—The foreign- office has. received information from Consul Shipley at Tabriz, Persia, which says that 25,000'St?fan~mQuntaIneors from the Tyari and adjacent districts have taken refuge in Salmas and that 10,000 more are expected there. AU are destitute and unless help is received many of them will perish, as winter Is close at hand. Conslu Shipley adds that the American relief commlsslonj under the presidency of the United States consul, is endeavoring to do all that is possible but that the funds are entirely inadequate to meet the requirements of the situation which justifies ari.urgent appeal to the charity of Great Britain. Mr. Shipley suggests that all funds be sent to him for distribution through the American commission, which, ho believes, is the best agency for giving effective relief.* , * CROATIAN DAILY AND IRISH VOICE DENIED THE MAILS (By Daily News Leased Wire., OTTAWA, Oct. 29.—Tho privileges of the Canadian mails have been denied tho Nnrodni List, a Croatian daily paper published in New York, and the firish Voice, a weekly paper published In Chicago.

THOMAS IS SILENT AS TO SHELL ORDER Representative of Lloyd George to Leave for Home via New York Tomorrow. Offers Spirited Resistance to Their Enemies INTO BULGARIA (By Dally News Leased Wire.) _ OTTAWA, Oct. 29.—D. A. Thomas, personal representative of David Lloyd George, who has been In Canada and the United 'States for some time, in connection with the purchase of munitions of war for the British government, expects to leave for New York., on Sunday, en route for home. When seen tonight and questioned in regard to the lotting of orders for big shells to the value of $80,000,000, Mr.' Thomas declined to say anything. While satisfied with tho course events have taken, Mr. Thomas apparently does not propose to make an announcement as to the details of the award of tenders. It is likely, however, that a general statement will be made by the shell commission relating to tho letting of the contracts for big shells. There has been no further developments relating to the reorgaiiiza'ieii of the shell commission. Despito Col. Cantley's denial that he has resigned as a member of the committee, tho opinion prevails here that the manager of the Nova Scotia Steel company will not again be actively associated with the work of tho commission. As a matter of fact, the control o£ tho orders for shells has passed largely to the representatives of the British government now in Ottawa, who will work in conjunction with Gen. Bertram and the other members of the commission. As all the orders-handled by tho shell commission are for the British government, no one in the capital is disposed to take any. exception to this; It is agreed that as the money to be spent belongs to the British government, its repiesentatives should have tho final say* in regard to all purchases made. $10,000 BREACH OF PROMISE CASE HEARD AT OTTAWA (By Daily News Leased' Wire.)

Pass Through Htrnmitza-r Uskup Unsafe for Invading Forces (By Dally News Leased Wire.)' LONDON, Oct. 29.—The Germans, with their Austrian and Bulgarian allies, are still making an attempt to cut off the retreat of the main Servian army, which is offering such spirited resistance to tho invaders. While Von Mackouzen's force advances slowly from the north the Austrians have crossed the western border of Servia south of Vishegrad and are moving eastward and the Bulgarians aro marching westward on a wide front from Pirot, which lies southeast of Nish, to Valjecar, to the northeast of. Nish. It is, of course, a long way across and the country is difficult to traverse, but the Servians are bound to defend it as long as possible, as their arsenal at Kraguyevatz is situated in this area and they will doubtless hold oil with the hope of making an eventual re-- tirement in the mountains along tbo Montenegrin frontier and into that country. To forestall this the Austrians are "also attacking in Monte- ncgro but have made little progress, as the Montenegrins, under their veteran fighting king, have had a long time to prepare for just such an event and thus far have beat off all attempts to throw them back."~ In fact, tho' Montenegrins hold some strong positions In Austrian territory out of which they will have to be driven before their own country is invaded. Germany Says Rumania Joins Allies There is no change in the southern area, of Servia so far as is known. The report that Uskup has been recaptured is hot confirmed. The French, however, claim to have cleared the Bulgarians out of the Veles district. If this is true, It would render Uskup an unsafe place for tho Invaders in the opinion of military1 men. In what other way Servia'is to be assisted has not yet been disclosed. . Some British troops are cooperating with the French In the south and others arc on the way, but where they will be used remains a secret. Servla's plans have not yet been disclosed, although from German sources it is reported that Rumania is about to throw in its lot with tho entente allies, and will allow the pus- sage of 500,000 Russian troops through its territory to attack Bulgaria from the north. Greece has assured the allies that its neutrality remains friendly to them (Continued on Page Two) NO ECHO IN BRITAIN TO PEACE RUMORS Public Believes That Despite Mistakes Allies Have Gained a Vital Supremacy. (By Daily News Leased Wire.) LONDON, Oct. 29.—By P.-A. McKenzie.—Peace rumors find absolutely no echo here, Tho British public, recognizing the! various mistakes in our war administration believes that despite thoso mistakes we have secured a vital supremacy. Numerous independent reports from German* sources si-Tow the acuteness of the food problems thero aha every week adds 'force to the situation. Pressure upon tho enemy every week during* the winter must increase the advantage of our position despite tho German advance and local successes in the southeast, NEW- WAR COUNCIL WILL HAVE EXECUTIVE JPOWER (By Dally News Leasod Wire.) LONDON, Oct. 29.—By P. A. McKenzie.—The probable membership of thb new war council Is Premier Asquith Sir Edward Grey, Eari Kitchener , Lloyd George, A. J, Balfour. Bonar Law and either Lord Curzon or Lord Lansdowne. The""maln difference between the new council and thfe prosent war commission ls that the new council will posses executive power, its decisions being immediately enforced without reference to the full cabinet. Th necessity of some Improvement in our administration machinery is now almost universally admitted. Thus the Chronicle today says: The commons and the country want more efficient conduct of the war; some provision: in our policy for coordination in diplomacy and' arms. The government's "want of forethought ln thei Near East and gross mismanagement of the Dardanelles affair, has profoundly disturbed the country." Much comment is aroused by tho probable non-inclusion of Winston Churchill in tho new council and his retirement is freely hinted. Tho agreement to the change In tho French cabi-' n&t indicates even more severe prosu* cution of tho war than before. Austrian reports declare the French have landed 150,000 troops ut Saloniki. Some well Informed Servians still maintain that if the allied armies advance rapidly the road to Nsh can bo cleared, the vital supply route for tho allies made safo and the main body of tho Servian army saved. DENIES KAISER HAS CREDIT AT BANK OF ENGLAND AMSTERDAM, Oct. 30.—The North German Gazette, official organ of the German government .gives denial to a report that has been in circulation to the effect that Emperor William has a private credit of $1,000,000 Ih the Bank of England.

SATURDAY, OCT, EW TENDER AS IT WAS TOO LOW One of Kelly Family Tells of Law Courts Contract—Refused to Go Ahead. (By Daily News leased Wire.) WINNIPEG, .Oct. • 29.—The two branches of the Kelly family In Winnipeg, headed by Thomas Kelly, partner with his sons as contractors, and Michael Kelly, whose three sons are stockholders in the National Construe. Hon company, were not oft good terms up,to the summer of 1912, according to evidence today given by James M, Kelly, son, of Michael, before the law courts commission.' The witness said that about that time a better understanding was -bolng arranged between the two branches of the family, which bad hitherto hardly been on speaking terms, and the National company sub- lot tq Thomas Kelly & Sons a contract for supplying the'cut stone for the law courts building. Thomas Kelly Sons also tendered for the law courts and their figure was second lowest. When the National company, the lowest, tenderer, refused to sign a contract, the Kelly firm also declined to go on with the work, Stat-, ing that it had a contract for cut stone work which would keep its plant busy. The witness .said that he did not know of any large ^ut stone contract let at ahout that time other than tlie one for the law courts. James Kelly secretary-treasurer o.' the National company, was on tho stand all this afternoon and his evidence will be continued when Commissioner Mathers sits again on Monday. On many points his recollection seemed to be faulty and the commis- missioner told him he was "getting vague" in his evidence. Tendered Too Low. The witness sent with his tender on the law courts on'behalf of the National company a marked check for $38,198, being 5 per, cent, as required in the provisions of the government. This was on June 8. The company was offerod the contract at its own figure, upon which James Kelly wrote the government that, owing to a clerical error in the tender, he declined to sign a contract. The government thereupon returned the marked check, which was despoited to the company's account. Mr. Kelly said he considered a deposit of this kind 'a mere matter of form," though the government had the privilege of forfeiting the check of any tenderer who refused to sign a contract at the submitted figure. The witness said that the "clerical error" simply meant that the tender was too low. "Your tender waa low and you wanted to get out of it?" suggested Mis Pltblado. "Yes'," agreed, the witness, who sstld that he had decided the day he put the tender in that he would not take the contract if it was offered him. Kelly stated that he had nover inquired as to the fate of the tender he wrote out and signed for C. H. Simpson, president of the National Construction company, at $890,105, and which .was the one accepted by the government. He said he did not know that if Simpson got the contract he would sub-let the work to the National company. This, in fact, was done on Aug. 14, at $854,107. FRENCH CABINET ISCOALITION (Continued from Page One.) ARE WELL FQUIPPED, Despatch to Toronto Papers Announces He Has Supplies for Two Years and 100 Dogs. TORONTO, Oct, 29.—The following despatch has been received by the Toronto Globe from Viljhalmar Stefansson, the Canadian explorer in the Arctic, reporting his departure for further exploration. "Cape^Kelk-tt, Banks Land/Sept. 3, via Circle Alaska, Oct. 26.—Thc North Star sailed on Aug. 24 under command of Wilkins of Adelaide, Australia, the only Britisher beside myself now in the northern section of this expedition. -The destination of the North Star Is Prince Albert Land and Melville island, via Capes Alfred and 1'oUcsley.* Pour men are under the command of Wilkins. . "The Polar Bear sails today under my command with 10 white men and nine Eskimos, bound north.* ' The expedition now has 100 dogs against 20 odd last year, and its equipment and prospects are belter than at any time since the Karluk drifted off. With duck no worst- lhan in previous season we should finish the exploration of the ice to the west of the 145th meridian and to 82 north latitude. Expect to return south ljext year, but have supplies to last" two years and even after that no worry need bo felt on the score of starvation, though other accidents arc naturally possible." The latitude and longitude given by Stefansson is several hundred miles deep into the great stretch of territory marked* on modern atlasses as' ".unexplored." This point Is north and west of the land discovered by Stefansson June 18, the location of the landing point on tlie new land being 78 degrees north, 117 west. Thick weather prevented observations during the three days the explorer fbllowed the new coast line eastward except one day, when he recorded 77 degrees 43 minutes north and 115 degrees 43 minutes west. It is this new land that Stefansson intends to explore on his latest expedition. The unexplored tract comprises an area about the size of Greeland and something the same shape, with the point around the* north pole. It Is greater In extent than Manitoba,. Saskatchewan and Alberta combined.

FRENCH ADVANCE ON OLD BATTLE GROUND Champagne, Over Whi-h Thay Drove Germans, Was Scene of Great Reverse for Huns The Champagne country means to most of us a smiling lund of vineyards, says an exchange. But when you read of the fcreat French advance between Auberhe and Villc-sur-Tourbe, it is more to the purpose to think of Salisbury Plain. For all this fighting i.s in the Champagne t'otillleusc. a country which grows neither vines nor anything else. It is a barren, desolate region, without any marked characteristic but a pervading dreariness. There arc no hills to break Ihe outline. It is an undulating country, which never rises or falls more than a couple of hundred feet. Thc soil la chalky, and even a French peasant cannot make much of it. Attepipts have been made, chiefly, we believe, during tlio Second Empire, tn persuade It to grow timber. The results are to be seen in Innumerable patches of pines. But the tree* -seem to dislike their situation and remain spindly and .scrubby. As a natural conse<]uenoe, the district Is sparsely populated nud traversed by few roads nnil railways. The conditions which have rendered agriculture difficult or impossible naturally recommend the district to the military authorities. Just us we hnve mude Aldershot and Salisbury Plain training centres. Napoleon HI. established a great camp at Chalons. The country to the north of that centre In which the recent advance has been mnde ls minutely familiar to French troops. Although roads arc scarce, the nature of the terrain allows artillery and transport tn move with a fccilltv quite impossible in Flanders or Artois. On the other hand, heavy rain converts the whole plain into a sea of mud. As we know that the first French attack was delivered on a wet day, Its, signal success is the more triumphant. But If the f-halk Is easily churned up-Into a grey iiuag, on the other hand, it dries ntllckly enough. T!TO)ri> the days of trench warfare it wus held that the opportunities which lhe district offered for mancuvriiig across country, combined with tlie chances of concealing troops In the. undulations and patches of woodland, made it ideal for military operations. Attila .and Valmy Many a famous fight has boen fought In or hard by the Champagne Pouil- leuse. One of the few' buttles which have decided the fate of a civilization was fought close Jiy the shattered Gorman trenches. Away to the north of Chalons you may see a huge oval earthwork, which- is called * Attlla's camp. No doubt it is far older than Attila. But somewhere In the plains hard by Roman and Frank ano>*'i8l- goth clashed with the horde of Attlla's Huns and rolled back the tide of savagery. Marvelous tales are told of the slaughter on that freld; 100,000 200,000, 300,000, tlie chroniclers record as the number of the dead. However little you believe in the figures o^ the dark ages, lt is certain that that hard- fought fight saved Europe from a slavery to barbarism. The plains pf the Champagne Pouilleuse have evil omens for the German arms. Twenty miles away to the east Is the field of Valmy, where the France of the Revolution first met the Prussian tradition and shuttered Its fame. But If there are memories of victory In those rolling plains, there are also .memories of disaster to bo avenged, lt was ..through , (ho Champagne Poull- Ipusfc by the roads which rim north through RQthel and Vouzlers, that Maetyahon marcher) to tfcj.disaster,ot ^edan. The weather was wet, thc roads auagmlrea, transport failed and starving ,,troops coi^ld hardly drug themselves op. But |t ls a very different army add a very different staff which fight for France In 1915. The advance now' in progress In,- of course, not the first which has boon made In the, phampagne country this year. Throughout the latter half of tfehruai'y the French . were attaching the perman lines in the neighborhood .of .Perthes aud Le Mesnil. But ttioifo operations were. Insignificant compared with the present assault. The gain In F^briiivry was upon a front of oi»ly five miles, the greatest .advance was less than a mile, and .prisoners were counted by hundreds, it will be! seen that the German lines Just captured were drawn so as to defend and em- plnj> the branch railway which hms1' froin the line between Whelms- qnd Retliel, nt Bazniicoiirt to Champagne, on the borders of the Argonne.* DISCOVER FAY PAID Bf American Federal Official, ',',., nouncement Covering Bombl rages at New York, I (By Dnlly News I,e,*i«(.fl wi NEW YORK, Oct.29.—Fed' cials made It In ,»*ii ,0d,*iv I government was In p'ossesglojil formallon that Koberi *,,.*,. und)j rest in connection «*ii!i p*,, ,,„ splracy, received firm Germany, but it was connection hal nnl )„■ official In Eur,,," confessed lhat he "'. with funds before ," United States' Attor iterated the -prevfou the government f'oiit,*!ii;.;aiF*,| n| thor arrests at present nltMi^l was convinced thnt lhe f:\<- nnl ready arrested wer,* not ;ill -Mt pliciued.

And neutrals must be extremely careful.In their criticism of what Germany Is doing In the fl-pld. Several neutrals, Including an American, were sitting at a table ln a cafe during my visit. Suddenly the American snid something about German fighting to his friends which displeased an officer at the next table. In two seconds the officer's friends rose and walked over and presented a card to the American, who was asked for his. "Say," he answered gaily, "I've no time for duels. I've got too much business arjd sense *'<HMiumor." The officer came—Across and said very politely but firmly that if the whole party didn't clear out he would not say that bo might not sabre them. They then withdrew. On "Tommy Atkins" A German friend who is an officer and n. man of title and some social altitude was talking frankly with me —you occasionally succeed in finding a German who ls not an "organized" gramaphone record—about the war prospects. I had just told him that I saw a great difference In the spirits of the Berllhers since the last time 1 was there. I asked hlm how this was, for the Germans then looked like dealing the Russian army a smashing blow. "It is only natural," he replied. "Every family in Berlin is mourning some lost one. Some have lost all their sons, and now fathers. 48 years old, are called out. It ls a time for sadness." "But your armies ar doing well?" "Certainly. But I should have said you were a poor prophet a jear ago if you had told me the Russians would still be holding out. We have invaded them. But think of what our poor devils will have to suffer in their swamps and snows this winter," "Well, you are still firm in the west." "For bow long? What does this day by day bombardment of our trenches mean? I will tell you. The French and the British are catching up with us in gun and shell power. They are nuturally not using it all up. It means that the number of shells they are using in a day is the number they can make In a day. When the guns stop the French and the Tommies will hurl themselves at us." "But you are good defenders." "So; yet the French arc a continual surprise. We thought them effemin ate, played out. But the English Tom mles. are the Very devils." "Why do your comic papers always show- them running away?" Keeping Back the Truth "Why do the comic papers ih all countries show the things that people like to- believe instead of the things that are? Besides, you can see that we do not think it wise to let our common people know the whole truth about ou_r jCQjponents." "You say so?" "Well, it would not help us telling them that the Tommy Atkinses are the best -infantry ln the war. They are marvellous. Our men dread to go against them. Our fellows fight because they have been drilled to It. They fight because they like It. It Is like a game to them. Our men can not understand it. They hate the English. Perhaps there is a little of the hate that comes with fear." "What are the qualities of Tommy Atkins that they report?" "Diabolically good shooting. Their snipers are positive artists. They are natural bayonet fighters. They certainly run well—but ln advancing. They are all too difficult to make run the other way." I have talked with a dozen privates and non-coms, lately, who said honestly enough that they didn't want to go back to the western front to fight "EngllBh Infantry. He confessed in another talk that the sequel to the big artillery preparation (which everyone discussed with foreboding, by the way, in Berlin) might be a vast infantry attack, which as likely as not would pierce the German lines seriously. I see It has come true, and I should like to be ln Berlin today to hear what the people are saying of lt. Lon-, don I find tremendously buoyant. Berlin is hard, grim, gloomy, apprehensive. There is a deep fear and resentment of a second winter campaign, and the Germans hate you all the more bitterly for -believing that only England's participation has made it necessary, 'here's a fine cod," said the fishmonger admiringly, as he held up a large and flabby fish for his customer's Inspection. "Hum," replied the lady doubtfully, "how much Is It?" 'I'llghlpence a pound, ma'am,' the fishmonger said in the tones of one who Is making a terrible sacrifice. The lady examined the fish more closely. 'It's not very fresh," she murmured doubtfully. "Oh, yes, ma'am" protested the seller. "It's a beautiful fish." But It's quite flabby and soft." That's right," Bald the fishmonger angrily, as he saw he had failed to make a sale; "go on insulting It. It'a diaij and can't answer back." 'She—Can you manage a typewriter?

IDUBtULN, .Ireland—(Ireland is now a* work on a large scale in the manufacture of munitions of war. For several years past there has been only one large Irish factory of war material, Kynoch's in County Wieklow. it is an off-shoot of tho Birmingham firm of which Arthur Chamberlain, brother r of the famous English statesman was the head. But the necessities of the war have In i'eland, an in England, turned other trades into the munitions business. When the demand waa made in Great Britain for greater extension of the manufacture of all sorts of war materials, Mr, Redmond saw to it that Ireland shouldi have a share in the plan. Representatives of Mr. Lloyd George's new department came over to Ireland and got into touch with leading business men In Dublin.and throughout the country. The Dublin chamber.of commerce gave active assistance and formed a special munitions committee. Tlie work is now well in hand and no less than 175 firms In Ireland are engaged in it. Large orders have been placed ln Dublin and one firm has got in order for £20,00(1— a_smalL£igure on the general scale of this war, but a good deal of money for a city where employment is scarce and industry backward. Mr. Lloyd George has established in Dublin a branch office, which ls expected to insure not only the execution of war contracts but a continuance of government work after the war. A central arsenal is being constructed and equipped with special machinery. Every available machine is being pressed into the service, even those used in tlie city of Dublin technical schools for the training of pupils. The employees at the new works are to be divided into five classes, skilled and unskilled men, skilled and unskilled women and auxiliaries who will work at times when the regular hands are resting as at weekends. Em ployment Is not to be restricted to men outside military age, the Idea be ing that _t!i& munition worker Is as useful as the soldier. Output of Shipping. Belfast; whose main activity in tbo war interest has been the increase in the output of its shipping from its famouB yards, M8 also gone seriously irtto the munitions business.. Cork and Limerick and even some of tho smaller towns throughout tlm country arer-also employing all the. machinery they can command ln making shells or parts of shells Munitions are not the only branch of war trade of whllh Ireland has do-. manded and received a share. Some of the textile factories have bad g I orders for clothing matreials. Ireland never has ln the past secured a fair share of government.'expendltu.-,.. and at the beginning of the war was great*: ly hampered in competing i'or Con- tracts by the fact-that tile depots for examining and receiving* goods wero in London. Agitation, however, led to the establishment of a depot in Dublin where certain classes of goods of Irish manufacture are dealt with. Hut tlu-i-a, aro still restrictions limiting the class of. goods' and efforts are being ipaiW to widen the utility of the depot by admitting to it all the goods produced in Ireland which are required for military and other government services. Must. Remain Agriculture. Ireland's chief industry is and must remain agriculture and one of the most indispensable of war munitions is food. A vigorous campaign has been instituted under government auspices to increase_the_output of food products in Ireland. Sho used to be told that her'function was to be the fruitful mother of flocks and" herds. Now the cry is all for tillage. The difficulty is that the grazing ranch system which belongs to thc old theory has not been abolished, and the people have not complete access to the land, They are puzzled by the two voices with which tliey are addressed on their duty in the war. On the one hand they are told that It Is the duty of the farmers to enlist,'that the statfe bus done a good deal for tho Irish farmer And that his time has come to show his gratitude by shouldering a rifle, in the new armies. Comment is freely made on the fact that the farmers and the farmers' sons have not enlisted ln the same proportion as other classes. The complaint is true as regards farmers of all parts of Ireland and of all parties and creeds. It is true of Englahd as well.,- Rut, now there is a new campaign for increased food production which cannot be worked if the men leave the land for the armies. So the recruiting sergeant and the government agriculturists are getting In each other's way. ., j. , . That there is roorn for a considerable development of Irish agriculture is evident from the fact that according to the statistics given by ,he head of tbe agricultural deparmfuit, Ireland actually, imports an annual average of 111.000,000 pounds wortii of foodstuffs which could easily be replaced by. the home grown articles. He had pointed out that If Germany had tilled as little of her soil'as Ireland sho would .have been exhausted. in six'months, Germany tills flfi per eentjof'liei- arable land, whereas, he says, Ireland tills orily 16 percent. The inevitable topic of the American exchange und the" balance of trade crops up here even, and the Irish farmer is appealed to by ihe agricultural minister to help keep down the price of thc dollar by'importing less Ahierican food and producing more* of bis own. ONE-DAY TRAGEDY OF C2ENST0CHOVA The Novoye Vranya of petrograd ro. ports, from -information received via the United States, the gruesome tragedy which has taken place in Czen- stoohqva, . the southwestern Polish town in German occupation, where is lhe old Roman Catholic motiuslety^. possessing the famous "miracle-work- ! ing ikon of the Mother of God,", held In reverence by all Poles * When a Prussian garrison, replaced 111'- Austrian, Saxon and Bavarian Iroops (which had originally occupied ■tlio town), the German, commandant, vii) Edllch, informed the monks that the monastery and church had been j mined, and would lie blown up in case of military heed. Therefore the ikon would be removed to Berlin or Cologne where care could be ttifcen of it. . 'I'he monks refused to give up their holy treasures. They would rather be blown up with the monastery and the ikon than dellCTer.it Ihto the German hands. Meanwhile the news of tho Germans' Intention to .remove the sacred ikon has spread. With the fall of night crowds of agitated people gathered. nr: ""ii hands net fire to several German barracks, repair shops, supply stores and hayricks, and in dark streets and lanes the cowds set upon,.the German pati-oW-Shouts of "Kill the pro- l'aners!

Next morning Gen. von Edllch placarded the town with an appeal to the populace to preserve calm," promising them to leave the ikon intact in the monastery.

CANADA PLACES NO LIMIT ON AID TO EMPIRE Authorization.' of the recruiting of 100,000 additional troops and the increase of th'e Canadian overseas forces to L'HO.OOO men is the answer of Sir Robert Borden's government to Ilie King's appeal for more men. to enable decisive victory to lie won. It is for Canacfa's young men to make good this response by enlisting in the new battalions which are being raised.'

PACIFICISTS WORKING TO SAVE A MILITARY MENACE When Germany endeavors to turn military defeat into diplomatic victory by securing a premature peace it maybe taken for granted that it will be supported by not a few clamorous , pacificists. Peace advocates who give their support to the central empires in-endeavoring to end the war before Germany and -Austria have been completely crushed aro in a typically illogical position.

They are striving to conserve, behind a shadow of temporary peace, the most dangerous militaristic system the world has ever seen.

NEED SEPARATE PORTFOLIO OF MINES The renewal by the Revelstoke District Conservative association of the request to the Dominion government Hint a separate portfolio of mines be created is opportune. Seldom has the activity in mining in llritish Columbia, been as great, seldom have the prospects heen as favorable, as at the present time. As the Revelstoke Mall-Herald points out, the Borden government has been responsive io the representations -whlclr'have been made at Ottawa on behalf of mining by R, P, Greeni Mp> and others well versed in theneeds of the Industry but it i.s not to be expected that a minister who has charge also of another -department of the Dominion's affairs can give the full attention to mining that could lie given by the holder of a separate portfolio. Referring further to the question, the Mail-Herald urges on sound grounds that the province is abundantly justified in asking for the creation' of a sepnrate portfolio of mines and tlyu it has the right to expect that the s^t shall be filled by a representative, of BrH-mh- Columbia who is acquainted with the problems which be dealt with.

To the' thoughtful observer who has read the newspaper attacks upon Great Britain i'or her'tise of the mastery of the. seas, what will lie most striking is not what she has done in the matter of delayed cargoes or prize court condemnations, but what she might do. So far as we are concerned, she can operate what amounts to a virtual monopoly in such products as tin, wool, pepper, nutmegs, tapioca, cloves, shellac, rubber,.Indian tea, cocoa and many other things which to us are not merely luxuries or comforts, but necessities. What is to prevent Great llritain, so far as tier-crown colonies are concerned, from putting an export duty on all these articles? ^fc?he commands this seas. Bne can virtually monopolize the freight for that reason. Uy transferring the ships with the necessary insulation instalment from the chilled and frozen meat trade of Argentina to that of Australasia she brought the American packers to their knees, in spite of their majority control of the Argentin^i.*outpnJ.. With a like command of the export 'movement of the world, what would Germany not do? . ■— There, is historic precedent in the attempt to tax what were then the American colonies for the benefit of the mother country, which apparently traverses this suggestion. Hut India is nofa commo'nwealth, nor are the Straits Settlements, from whence our canning industries derive their indispensable tin. The self-governing' colonies of the British Empire properly make their own tariffs. But the British mercantile marine even more, in a* sense, than the British navy, holds the mastery of the seas. When the New York World, with the best intentions, and with entire justice, calls attention to what Great Britain has done in this respect, it forgets what she might do. She is fighting for her life, as a nation and an empire. She knows that while the domestic consumer pays the du'ies in a protective tariff, the export duty falls upon the foreign consumer, as we discovered for ourselves In the case of Brazilian coffee. When the allies are fighting for those things we hold dearest—the sanctity of treaties and government by- consent of the governed—suppose we take into our own hearts their surprising moderation, in view of the overwhelming strength of their position so far as our own export and import trade are concerned? What might Greut Britain do? What couldn't she do If she were as unscrupulous as her adversaries? DAD SPANKS THE GROOM AND SHATTERS YOUTHFUL ROMANCE DETROIT.—A sound spanking given the bridegToom by his father 'broke up the ..youthful romance of Meyer and Lillian Ixiekmaftn, iV' was testified in Judge Lamb's court iTere, Meyer's people Jare rich and Lillian's are poor. The twain met, loved and eloped to Windsor and got married, avoiding the stern wrath of the wealthy parents and the watchful eyes of Justice Marshall ln Denrborn'by so doing. Meyeris 19 years old and weighs less than 100 pounds. Lillian Is 17 years old, good to look upon and weighs more than her husband. "We are taking steps now to have the marriage annulled. They never lived together," cried the legal representative of the scion of wealth ln trying to get his client free from the necessity of paying alimony and solicitor's fees pending the annulment hearing. "They -did live together for five weekB,' contended Lillian's counsel. "Then Meyer went home, got spanked and stayed in his luxurious home without leaving a cent for the care of his young wife, who was sick. She was compelled to seek shelter from 'her parents, who Are not so well endowed with this world's groodB as the bridegroom's." - Judge Laftiib ruled that a spanking, no matter how severe, did not absolve a" husband from the duty of supporting his wife and ordered temporary alimony of 12.50 a week. f HENRY FORD WAS THE DUPE f I OF SHALLOW TALK I ■4 Himi, mumn i Canadians who talk -to Amerieams should proclaim the truth that every leader of the British people loves peace and hates war just as truly, and far more effectively, than Woodrow Wilson or William Jennings Bryan, Britain and her allies might have secured a friend Instead of an enemy in Henry.Ford if Rev. .1.

Early in the war France decided that little if any .effoi^.s toward- -the poKinancnt rebuilding of these" towns and farmhouses would be made until tlle great struggle should He fully ended. Meantime, however, there was the problem of finding shelter, both for man and beast, and that as quickly as possible. The situation was squarely faced. Now, after a year's, experience, the government's set of experts can run up a town over night, even more quickly than the erstwhile American boomers, could produce one on paper for'the seduction of avid victims. The condition in-wliich the German invasion left the .houses of France has been inost aptly described by *M. Mir- maii, prefect of the. 'department of Mourtlie-et Moselle. M. Mirmun himself has supervised the erection of nearly 1000 temporary homes in his own prefecture. Houses "Wounded." .' There were houses," said M. Mlr- man, "which the German invasion merely wounded, and then there were others, whicli under the bkjws of the ■barbarians were left quite Sead." The government ln confronting the problem decided that the houses which had been merely "wounded" should be repaired nt once. This would offer quick shelter lo their former occupants and prevent further deterioration of the property. But where the houses had been left quite "dead" by the Germans, France decided it would be better merely to provide temporary dwellings until such a time as the government could undertake the rebuilding oh an adequate basis. In Its work along this, line France found a valuable -and unexpected source of aid In the. Quakers and' the Friends of England. Their religion *does n.ot permit them to go to war—to engage In bloodshed. They therefore asked France that they be permitted to take over the task of repairing some of the ravages of* war. They were given the department of the Marne, where the havoc wrought on French homes in the battle that first burned back, the side of German invasion was terrible. The list of casualties in this department showed very few houses "wounded." They were all "dead." Quakers Volunteer Services. The Friends and Quakers offered to buy their own material and to take under their charge the workmen. The bulk of these were furnished them from the army. They confined themselves to the erection of a single type of temporary dwelling. The house has a depth of 12 feet and is long as the needs of the family render necessary. A -barn Is built out from one side. It costs from $120 to J140. Upon the hopeless heaps of ruins which is all that remained of dozens of once prosperous French villages and towns, the Quakers and Friends have returned at least to the sites of their former homes and resume something of their former routine of life. This work of the Friends and Quakers has been followed largely by the French government in the devastated departments. Variation Is offered only in the size of the little" shacks. The government provides for temporary homes of three, four and five rooms, according to thc size of the family. The cost scldoms runs above J2O0, although a few more elaborate buildings are being permitted at a cost up to $400. Where the families are utterly without means as a result of the destruction of all their property, during thi Invasion, they occupy the little homes without cost. When the occupants have means they pledge themselves to pay "back the original cost. Already this work has had a wonderful effect In Inducing refugees to return to their former home and resume work. It has decreased lmemasurably the government's task of caring for refugees: In addition It has revivified scores of townB and villages where life had all but ceased to-exist. These places are taking on an air of rude prosperity not unlike that of the little iploneer towns of the early west ln America, and the ruin and devastation wrought by war Is gradually losing its naked,.pt!tllnes.

A number of prairie amateur hockey, stars are anxious to catch on in the l'acific Coast league. . ;, NURSES Eddie McGflor.ty,l the American mid- delweight, who has beon in Australia for some time aiid who suffered a severe setback when he was stopped by Les Darcy in 15 rounds, is coming back into his own. Eddie decided that he could not make the middleweikht limit for a match and began fighting in the lelght heavyweight class, with the result that he has scored three knockouts within the last six weeks, stopping Joe Bonds in one round, Billy Murray in four and Harry Reeves, he English heavyweight, in six. McGoorty has been anxious to get on another match with Darcy, but if he does it will not be at the middleweight limit, for no one knows better than the Osh- kosh boy himself that he cannot make that weight and be strong. Therefore, if the match is made it will be a case of -Darcy giving away weight, and if he does he is liable to bump into a surprise party. There are none of the middlew-eights who can afford to give away a lot of poundage to a man like McGooty and hope to beat him. If Darcy is a legitimate middleweight he will make a serious mistake in trying to meet McGoorty at catch weights, or rather as a lelght heavyweight. LIONIZED CANADIAN BUGLER 4 '■ McGOORTY—D'ARCY SCRAP SAID TO HAVE BEEfg FRAMED The near future may see the .Australian authorities put the lid down tight on boxing, if there is any foundation for the persistent rumors viw current that the McGoortv-D'Arcy Scrap was framed. Aecording'to members of the crew of the R.M.S. Nia- gara, which arrived from- the Antipodes, tho fight was the rawest kinfl of a frame-up, and the authorities are preparing to put the lid down on the game. It is alleged that McGoorty was unable to make the required weight for the Australian and that he threw the battle, D'Arcy being credited with a 16Tround knock-out victory. A local prize fight enthusiast received details from a friend who was in Sydney and ,saw lhe flg'ht, and ho is said to have had knowledge,that McGoorty had agreed to throw the fight previous to the commencement of the battle. Australians ure noted for their keen ■interest in sport, but will not permit frame-ups, and as soon as the authorities sjoLwind of the McGoorty*-D'Aroy Jllegt'd fake they will undoubtedly 'open an Inquiry. If the boxers are found guilty of such an affair, they will certainly iinve to wander to new battling grounds for their meal tickets. Jeff Smith committed a minor offense when he fouled D'Arcy, and, following an inquiry, he was barred from participating in further bouts in the Antipodes.

Judgment in favor of the plaintiff was given. Another' case wherein W. B. McFarlane was plaintiff and Leo P. Sullivan defendant came before .Magistrate Arnold. The plaintiff in this case claimed interest on the amount of *the account arid the defendant disputed the account on the ground that the account which he- had received from the plaintiff had not mentioned any interest.

FERNIE RAISES Systematic Method of Collecting Subscriptions Results Well—$1200 Per Month Secured. He Had Leave from Firing Line and Paid Visit to Cliveden. LONDON.—The staff and patients of the Duchess of Connaught's Canadian hospital at Cliveden were keenly interested in a young visitor who arrived thore straight from the front. He was dressed in khaki whicli gave evidence of recent association with the trenches: he bore a rifle, and carried a soldier's pack. The youth was a puzzle to many, who watched hlm with amazement. He had not come for treatment; he was sound in wind and limb, and marched like an "old hand." It was not long before the boy soldier was the center of an admiring gtjoup and he speedily revealed the object of his visit. He was Anthony Glnley. the boy bugler of the Royal Montreal regiment, whose persistence won for him a place at the front, and whose work—so we 'have been informed—has resulted in his being rec-. ommended for the D. £', M. Worked on a Farm. The lad was searching for Captain Richardson, lhe hospital quartermaster. He was introduced to he officers' mess, and very shortly after the nurses had him in tlieir parlor. A photographer then appeared. The boy, in fact, was the lion of the institution, and produced a thrill of pleasurable excitement in all the wards. Ginley is of Scottish parentage, but an orphan. His father died when he was about 18 mouthy old, and he afterward went with his mother from Scotland to Canada. The mother died about three years *ago, and Major Woodside, of the Canadian Heavy Brigade, took an interest in tlie lad, engaging him to work on a small farm which he has near Ottawa.. When war broke out Major Woodside volunteered for active .service. The boy was also en gel 'W&o, but aa he was so young' his employer did not feel able to consent. The lad was so Insistent, however, that Major Woodside agreed to his joining the 14th Montreal battalion as a bugler. Keen for Service. With the battalion Glnley came to England and crossed with them to Prance last February. He was as keen as mustard for active servlco, and prayed to be allowed to accompany the men to tho trenches. He was told that he would have to shoulder a rifle, and declared himself quite equal to it, ln the time he has been in France, Glnley has grown three Inches. He was present aMioth battles of Ypres and also at J?eBtul>#rt. Once Spokane and Calgary via the Crow's Nest Pass line, the trains being known as Nos. 03 and 64, will he discontinued after Nov. 1, when the dailv service over this lino will be again reduced to one train eaoh way, which was the system in force during, the winter months last year. .,' Provincial Constables Collins and Goi-man left on Thursday in charge of A.

POLICE BELIEVE Mounties Know Nothing of Lost Prospectors—Case Nothing to Do With Slain Explorers (By Dally Newa Leased Wire.) OTTAWA, Oct .29.—That the .report from Thc Pns of the murder of two priests and two prospectors by Eskimos is but another version of' the •story of the. disappearance of Fathers Rouvier and Leroux. Is the opinion of Controller FoMe'scue of the R. N, W. M.P. The-report states that the scene of supposed murder was in Hudson bay district, whereas the official report received here some time ago slates that it was In the district of Great Bear lake. The two priests left Fort Norman touring the summer of 1013, intending to go on an extended journey through the Great Hear lake district but since have not been beard from. The report reached the police at Fort Resolution that Eskimos wearing priests robes liad been seen In this district'and later reports said that the two priests from Fort Norman hud been murdered. The police know nothing of tlie prospectors reported killed and believe they would be notified if such a report.was being investigated. "I have no doiibt the report of the murder pf the two priests is true enough," said Mr. Fortcscue. However, the comptroller explained that there was no foundation, for tlio supposition- that this murder had anything to. do with the killing of Had d Street. . was ldvkin. sponsible for the deaths of these tw< men. Tho department has a strong party in the tiiu-tli looking into the reported murder ■ of the priests.

C, Oct. 2D—Alfred Cum. mings. secretary of the Fernie District Patriotic, fund, has issued the report of that organization covering the period Aug. 27 to net. 27. The report includes the announcement that a new- method has been ad-opted by the patriotic fund committee, witli the consent of those who have been engaged in collecting subscriptions for other funds, such as the Red Cross fund, the tobacco fund and numerous others, whereby a systematic canvass of the entire district is being made and the donors requested to enroll on the subscription list for a stated monthlj_am- ount, this usually being a uniform percentage of the income, and by) so doing they are not obliged to be continually subscribing to the various.funds. This method, in atlditionTo eliminating the annoyance to the contributors, also abolishes the expenses which have heretofore been a moans of reducing the aggregate contributions, as those organizations other than the patriotic fund in order to raise funds for the respective purposes liave had to Continually exert themselves by arranging concerts, ttig days and other schemes, and all of which required a great amount of labor aivl expense on the part of tho promoters, while contributing direct to the patriotic fun4, in view of all the work in connection therewith being voluntary without remuneration, the ultimate result should prove very satisfactory to all concerned. The secretary's report shows that for October the disbursements to the dependents In this district of the boys at the front will be $1600. The total disbursements to date have been $7,7*12.80, while since the inception of the local branch of the fund, whicli is less than a year, the receipts have been $6109.16. A noticeable feature of this last mentioned amodnt is that when the last report was issued the total receipts shown were $3588.30, making a total increase in receipts since the inauguration of the systematic method of canvassing the district of $2520.86 for the period or over $1250 per month.

Notice to American Citizens Americans in the Kootenay district are requested to communicate with me at earliest convenience-giving number in family, occupation, and place of former residence in the States. LONDON.—Hilaire Belloc, writing on the military situation, says: The strategical analysis of the Bulgarian position Is, In its first elements, an exceedingly simple matter. Bulgaria hblds a 'bridge. The Austro-German forces cannot reach Constantinople and their Turkish allies save with the aid of Bulgaria. They could, if Bulgaria were willing, pass multlons in^o Turkey by railway. But It s very much more than the munitioning of Turkey which they are after. ""• They want a regular corridor through which they can communicate freely, passing troops in any number. The fn-Jtory at Tophana outside Constantinople can manufacture enough shells to maintain the position in Gal- liliuli Indefinitely and to prevent the opening of the Dardanelles. What is chiefly wanted is the opportunity for prosecuting larger designs toward the south and east The German . colonial secretary has already spokan of an* attack on Egypt and of a thorough reorgnization of the Turkish strength by a direct con- neevtion with Austro-Turkey. Bulgaria alone can furnish that direct connection. *,!'■'• I say that these first elements are obvious, but there are others almost as important. %. Want Adj Thomas D. Bowman American Consul ( . Fernie, B. C. BISHOP SHOD WITH HOT IRON BY TURK FIENDS LONDON.—A long, iii'c-oiint hy an eyewitness of Armenian atrocities is telegraphed by the Renter correspondent with the Durduiu-lles fleet. The statement Is from an official source, the correspondent ex-plaining that it ■was given to the British .staff by an Armenian serving in the Turkish army who was taken prisoner. This account begins at Ezertitn, the principal oity of Turkish Armenia, last -March. It covers travels aliout variuus parts of Armenia and gives details of various utronities,along familiar lines—how the Bishop of Si- Vai was shod with shoes of red hot Iron by a village blacksmith at the order, pf Tin*!.*:, how men at Tokat ■were tied tog.'ilie.- in groups of foin- and token oul 100 tti marshy dlsirii-ts for how the decl.ti*.n ion at Zlle included the all Armenian property. The accounts describe how ' women frere tied to the tails of ox carts and expose,I to hunger and rough weather until they accepted con version to Islam or death, how many mothers were bayoneted before the eyes of their children, how Armenian* girls were distributed as chattels among civil and military officials. ... - The prisoner says that as a soldier he was compelled tu assist in many massacres, being on one occasion member of a party of 10 soldiers which superintended the.death 'of 800 Armenians. Ills account closes as follows: "There is reason to believe that German advisers of the Turks have urged upon them the undesit-ubility of allowing a large alien aiid presumably friendly population to Inhabit parts .which lie open to Russian attack"." Nish Strategic Point on Line. Note in the first place, the nature of the railway trajectory whereby communications once open can be maintained. With Nish, the obi capital of Serbia, in. the hands pf the Austro- Germans, the: continuous line of Constantinople is in their power. But it is not only in their power. It Is more defensible than any other of the great strategical lines upon which the present .war has depended. It so happens that neither ln the east nor in the west has there been a strategic line essential to the pro- visionment of either party or one which Is capable of permanent and prolonged defense. But in the case of this nil-important International line from the heart of Bulgaria fo Tur- koy-ln-Europe J and Constantinople yod 'bave a geographical situation playing directly into the hands of the Austro-Gormans. , For the line runs through a sort of natural corridor, defended by mountains to the north nnd to the south. The line everywhere follows one valley until Adrianople is reached* and beyond Adrianople there is no danger of its being severed. The defenses to the north of that natural corridor need not be considered until, or, If, Rumania mobilizes. Rumania shows now signs of mobilizing, for it Is the chief effect of the Austro-German advance in the east during the last four months that the Balkan states are now. so far as vague general sentiment Is concerned, Converted to a belief In the ultimate victory of the central powers. Formidable Wall of Mountains. South of this corridor there exists a formidable, wall lending Itself beyond most such natural obstacles to defense—the Rhodope mountains. Without a contour map, one can appreciate what the Rhodope mountains are by the absence of roads. I believe thero Is not between the Bulgarian frontier south of Sofia and the coast road from Kavalla through Gumuljina and So up to Adrianople. anything along which you could drive a battery. From Sofia tu Jumaya It was metalled and workable; thence up to the time of the Balkan wars It was hardly a modern avenue of communication. a lime to the massacre, and of martini law confiscation of A man was charged before a magistrate with disorderly conduct. The police constable who had brought him t,, the station was asked if tlie prisoner had been Intoxicated. "Well," replied Robert, "I can't say, your worship, that he was exactly drunk, but he was insufficiently olhei-wise." At any rate the southern defenses of this corridor are formidable. A successful attack against lt, even lf the allies could land sufficient force to be, in conjunction with (he Greeks, superior to fhe Bulgarian forces here, would haifiiy force the-watf of the Rhodope mountains. For food Supply there is no avertue of cbmiiunication save the railway and road system which runs north from Saloniki to Nlsh directly and, in a. roundabout way to Sofia. From Kumariovo over the Dpve Balr Pass to. Kustendi there Is' a workable road, and -at Kustendi you Tina the railway which leads you 'down the water to Sofia. (Indeed this railway' has recently been prolonged beyond Kustendi towards the frontier;) j ,;„ But this combination of the one road and the one line through vary difficult mountainous country ls not sufficient for any considerable attempt to turn the defensive line of the Rhodope mountains. In a word, the allies se?m unable to help Servia save by direct advance along the main line -to Nlsh,, and an attempt to hold the northeastern belt of Serbia'gainst the combined pressure of :the Austro-Germans - In the north and the Bulgarians upon the east This chance of gettig astraddle of the-jlnternational line and maintaining the corridor uninterrupted would seem to .be' the only strategic chance open. But the factor of time is heavily against the allies even in this, and even supposing they had at present forces sufficient to meet tpe five "br six, army corps which the Austro- Gfermans can snare from the norlh and the eight or nlnp for their equivalent) which Bulgaria may put into the field. It is self-evident that long before help is actively nresent in northeastern Serbia the Bulgarian army, with its very * great numerical superiority, will have -begun its advance upon the international railwny. We may be Confident that Bulgaria will not mobilize more than that normal maximum of'one-tenth upon which any nation can count as its main effort In time of war. Tn neither the first nor second Balkan war—when Bulgaria was certainly putlins- forth her very utmost en- deavnr—did she arm and ration 10 per cent of her population. Rumania's Entry Vital Factor. That population has suffered heavily by the two great wars, and one may safely county on a force of no greater than 350,000, even from new Bulgaria, with its exttnded boundaries. But that is formidable. Serbia cannot now put into the field more than two-thirds of such a force. Greece, with, her newly' extended boundaries, could'mobilize more men than she did in the Balkan wars, were these trained, which they are not, 3r were her military organization alrejidy exoanded to meet the new population, which lt s not. The truth is that in all these steps there wll always be one decisive last factor, _ which is ' tihe ' ■Rumanian army. 'Some in this country affect to despise that force because Rumania civilization does not appeal to them. I have no experlehct of this moral factor, but we hear upon all sides of t'he excellent Rumanian military arrangements, and the factor of numbers Is very strilcfng. Rumania can put Into the field more mep than Serbia and Bulgaria com bined, and perhaps as men' men, or nearly as many, as Serbia, Bulgaria and Greece combined. Rumania has not moved, and she khows her own business. She has profited In the past by not moving until the last moment.

Just on the edge of the stretching forest of Pnrroyt in the beautiful country of Lorraine and midway between "thb French and German lines there Stands the remains of a farm building' surrounded by walls, a useful enough covering for attackers valuable to the attacked a place much coveted by both sides and at last utilized by the French but that only at night for by day the place came under the German rifle and shell fire and was quite untenable. The French method was to send a party of dragoons at night to hold this farm. Just as evening fell they would steel from the lines and take up careful positions in this vantage post in order to prevent its occupation by the Germajis. Only when day Was dawning would those cavalrymen leave their post. The strategem was eminently successful, for at night the Germans advanced to within 40 yards of the place, only to be driven back by a hail of lead that hit Into their ranks and sent them helter-skelter. Vain Bombardments. Then during the day, the Germans, thinking the French were still in the building, would waste a prodigious amount of ammunition of all grades on the perfectly empty building, thus causing much amusement to the French and saving them a great deal of bombarding. Things went en like tills for a week, the French holding the place at night and evacuating lt by day. The enemy at last, realized the danger of this Farm of Parroy and determined that, as they could not capture It, th«y would render Its being held by the French an impossibility. One day, just as the French dragoons were falling back a battalion of Saxons were seen advancing on, the semi- destroyed building with the object, so it wan thought of attacking with Infantry InBtead of bombarding as was their wont. In the half light their figures were Just discernible and immediately the French artillery opened fire upon them. Suddenly a startling thing' happened; a sheet -if flame shot up. The hayloft, the hayricks; everything began to blaze. The Germans had set lt ort fire. Awe-lnBiilring as this sight waa, it was son dwarfed by another vision, u terrible one, for suddenly the French were horrified to see masses of men running to and fro like madmen and completely enveloped in flames. Like so many fiery will o' the wisps they looked, dreadful flaming creatures, ghastly ln the half light Standing out in red relief against th6 blue-grey dawn. - It was not until the French, uu.-iid,. fd bear the sight of such suffering, had under the fire of the still watching enemy at a distanct, rescued one ot 'the Iflamiiig men, extinguished lilq fires, that from his dying lips they understood this terrible thing. Nemesis—vengeful fate had taken a hand In that contemplated diabolism Set Themselves Alight A German battalion had been ordered forward to take the farm at all costs and with the attacking forces had come a score of men carrying in- 'cendiary material—a kind of (compressed powder in the shaipe of pastiles, macaroni and little laths of wood Their work was to fire the buildings Everything went quite well. The attack and the burning of the old farm was well In hand when one of the Incendiaries was unfortunate enough to allow the flamels from the hayloft to reach his clothing and the bag in which he carried his pastiles. Only seconds elapsed and then the man became a living tdfeh. He waa enveloped in flames and cried out as he felt the agonies of the burning, terrified by the awful death that had come so close with its livid horror. His comrade^ many of whom were intoxicated, rushed toward him to help extinguish the flames. In a moment like a fired powder train the tongues of* fire had spread to the helpers, and jtHe petroli thety carried flared (up, the powder they bore exploded, to send a'dreadful death In all directions. It was a, veritable orgy of extinction by fire, a dance of death, whilst all the time the French, bullets were whistling past, sometimes to send some poor euffcrer out of his agony. The story teller' confessed that the scene beggered description and the (horror that struck those who watiched .outdid their imagination as to 'what it was like to be a victim ot that fire- wrath. Today the German lines are farther ■away than ever from the farm of Parroy and only a fe* rough mounds bear witness to one of the moat ter rible moments ln this war, when ingenlousness of the German proved his own undoing, ARTICLES FOR SALE (Say you saw it In The News.)

'-to' PURIiy FLOUR SCOTCH FLAVOR TO I Fine Program-Given by Local Artists in Aid of Patriotic Fund Followed by Dance. : There was no lack of enthusiasm iu the greetings'accorded' each of the artists Who took part in the concert, whicli preceded the dance given by ''Ian Johnstone In al*d of the patriotic fund in Eagle hall last night. Fourteen carefully selected numbers made up the program of the concert which was opened to the "skirl o' the Pipes" wielded 6y Past Chief W Mc-' Leary, whose performance on the national instrument of tihe. clansmen was much appreciated. With' the exception, perhaps of the selections rendered by Mr. Kay who drifted' far from the bonny Deo side, when leading a quartet in a Hawaiian love song, most of the selections served to keep up t'he "hellund" atmosphere by .extollng the praises of the bonny land o' haggis and heather. One of the successes of tlie evening was scored by Clansman John bundle who, scorning the services of an ac- compapjst kept the audience laughing witli an amusing song anent t!ie~ad-, ventures of three friends, a bottle of "Scotch" and two policemen, which he rendered to t'he air of "By Yon Bonny Ranks,'! with a chorus beginning "Then ye tak his held, Jock, and I'll tak his feet." * Two pretty numbers were charmingly sung by Miss Meta Bowles, the first being "The Stars that Shine, in my Garden" and, us an. encore^ an uippealing little ballad called "Jean, My Jean." Dressed* as a jolly Jack tar Ernest Welsh performed wonders in the hornpipe and Highland fling and received a splendid reception on both numbers. A song which found instant favur dpfl vifas delightfully sung was "Scotland* Yet," by Miss I'hlllips.. Following a selection .by the orchestra entitled "Bonny Scotland," E. ", "W. Clayton sang "Up from Somerset" and Miss Fairbanks won her way to the hearts of-the audience by her rendition of the «ld Scottish home song, ''My Ain Folk." An excellent piece of work, which found great favor with the audience was done by a quartet composed of O. A. Brown, E. W. Clayton, E. Lupton and Mr. Kay, who sang the "Hawaiian. Love Song."^ Mr. Kay leading with the native instrument. Following tills number from the island of the summer sea, Miss Annable brought her hearers buck to the blue hills und the misty burns with her delightful rendering of the old favorite, "Annie Laurie." Past Chief Leslie Craufurd scored a hit* with his song entitled, "Ta-ta, My Bonnie Maggie, Purlin','' and a duet, "The Moon Has Raised Her Lamp Above," sung> by Miss Bowles and Miss Fairbanks was well received. The concert closed with the swinging old favorite, "The Boys of the Old Brigade," sung by E. Lupton. P. ll. Morey acted as accompanist. After the musical portion of the evening wan over,* -Oie^chuirs were- qulckly moved into the galleries und the floor cleared for dancing after which refreshments were served.

Impression of relative geographical positions. It Is now admitted that the earth cannot be studied properly without a globe. In Ihe same way efforts have been made to depict the heavens upon a flat map, with the result that many of.the constellations are so distorted as to T\ positively unrecognizable. Some time ago n writer In the Scientific American suggester thnt a common umbrella might serve as a celestial globe, or'^t least half a globs, by having the stars painted on it ln their proper relative positions, This would provide. a very handy star map, which could be carried to the point of observation in folded position and then opened out to semi- sphortoal form representing the apparent form of the heavens. By pointing the umbrella stick at the north star, the umbrello could he readily moved to a position corresponding with the heavens at the particular time, and then it would be a simple matter to pick out the various constellations.' Used in China The idea has been further improved upon by O. F. Barcus of Shanghai. China. A dark blue silk parasol is used, and on it the stars are either painted or embroidered. lOach pufii- sol represents one-half of the celestial sphere, and by using two a map of the entire heavens is obtained. For the purpose of teaching astronomy to school children tbe parasol may be set in' a table. The plane of the observers horizon is represented liy the table top, which has an opening cut in It, through which part of the parasol projects. The umbrella .flick is pointed directly toward the north pole of the heavens, and makes an angle with the surface of the table equal to tlie latitude of the place. By means of clockwork the parasol is revolved at the same speed as the apparent revolution of the heavens, aiid a small Image of the sun placet! ln Its proper position on the parasol (as may be found by referring to it mimical almanac) shows by Its meridian the time of day'ori the dial lit tlie back of the pnrasol.

A young officer of one of the flying services recently was ordered to fly to Prance from a certain place In the south, so he followed the coast to the east looking for the corner where the direction of the coast line changed and indicated that he was at the Strait of Dover. Somehow he missed the corner and went on along the coast. His compass showed him that he wns going north, but being skipper ot the ship, he told the compass It was m-rong and went ahead title he did come to a corner. There he struck out across the sea and after the regulation twenty minutes or so found himself over fand again. Flying on, he came to some tents and when he had spotted a good field near them he landed In lt to ask his way. A number of peasant arrived and surrounded the machine. He oponed on them with his best French and they replied in come Incomprehensible tongue which he took be Flemish. Presently a British sergeant and a couple of men with fixed bayonets came up. As soon as they were within earshot the officer said, "1 say sergeant, enn you tell mo the way to our headquarters? I can't make these tiU lowp understand French." "French," yelled the sergeant, "I should think not. Why, you're about four miles from X mentioning a town ln the eastern counties) and these folks thought you was a German and sent td fetch us." i .* The officer had bravely flown across the Thames at Its mouth and landed in IDssex.

Those who understand the physiological effect of worrying, know this advice should be taken more seriously than It 2. Whenever the complexion begins to look worn or withered, use ordinary mercollzed wax for a week or two. Apply nightly' ihte cold cream, erasing it mornings with warm water. This gradually absorbs the thin film of surface skin, revealing thel fresher and younger skin underneath. An ounce of the wax obtainable at any drug store, ls enough to rejuvenate any complexion. 8. When the tell-tale wrinkles appear, or cheek and chin muscles begin to sag. bathe the face once a day for awhile ln a solution of powdered saxo- lite, 1 oz., dissolved ln y, pint witch hazel. This has a remarkable effect in "firming up" and smoothing out the skin. "Why ajl these toot* as you pnss that village?" Inquired the flremnn. "Toots Is my wife's pet name," explained the engineer.

L. E. Borden Accepts Two Recruits for Regiment at Winnipeg. As a result of tnejclosing of recruiting for the 54th Kootenay battalion, two men anxious to go to the front on active service who applied to Capt. L. E. Borden at the Nelson recruiting offices yesterday were enlisted for service with the Strathcona Horse. -Ttie men are John Plemming, .a veteran of the South African war, who haj been In the United States for some time ajitL crossed back to Canada In ordf**t*o enlist with the 54th battalion. The other ls D. C. White, of Trail, who came to Nelson with the same intention, but upon finding that the 54th battalion was up to strength decided to go with Fiemming to Winnipeg, where they will be taken on the strength of the Strathcona's Horse. Some time ago power was given to Capt. Borden to enlist men for other regiments in Canada beside' the 54th battalion and he states that although no more men are needed for tliat regiment he expects that be will still continue to have applications for enlistment and will be able to place a large number with other. Canadian regiments, furnishing transportation ' to them to the point where the particular body may be quartered. TOR TRENCH, PRISON Gifts Will Be Directed to Each1 Nelson Soldier Personally by Members of Women's Institute Over 100 Christmas hampers have been prepared by the Nelson and District Women's' institute, according'.-to the statement of the president, made at a meeting yesterday afternoon. These are to be sent to the Nelson and district soldiers in the. trenches and in German prison camps. The meeting was for the purpose of placing before the members the question, of the best method to be employed in sending the gifts to the men. It was stated that if the hampers were sent through the Hed Cross society the freight charges would be paid by that organization, but that in this case the society would not undertake to see that they reached the particular men to whom they are addressed, as the hampers would have to be considered a part of the general Red Cross work to be dealt with at the discretion of the executive of the association. It was felt by the members that, lf this course were followed, the chief purpose of the hampers would be lost. as it was the wish of the institute that every man from Nelson and the vicinity should receive a Christmas hamper from the friends at home, addressed to himself personally. It'was therefore unanimously decided that If the negotiations which have been opened with the. Canadian comforts commission to have the gifts shipped free of freight charges should not prove successful the institute would bear the expense, which it hus been estimated will be about $70, in order that the men wil] not be disappointed. Each of the hundred or more hampers contains a home-made Chrlstn-ks cuKe, clothing, home-made candies, and a great variety of little comforts and necessities which have been carefully thought out by the senders as being of most use to the men at the front and in prison. CORSET DEMONSTRATION , - - ATTRACTS MANY LADIES An appreciative audience was most delightfully entertained at the Hudson's Bay Company's Store yesterday afternoon When Mrs. McMlchael,' Canadian representative of the H. W. Gossard Co., Chicago, gave a talk on Scientific Corsetry and an exhibition of the beautiful Gossard Corsets on several living models. Mrs. McMichael explains, in a most logical manner,' how women can protect their health and improve their appearance by the Uso of the proper corset. She lays much, stress upon correct poiBe and the supporting corset which Induces this, and shows in a most convincing manner how the Gossard corset procures for women these beneficial results In health und comfort, and at the same time gives the utmost in style. 'Mrs. McMlchael announced that the H. W. Gossard Co. would soon be supplying the Canadian trade from a Toronto factory, and that unusual servlfce will be given Canadian women because all the stores selling GosSard corsets would have especialy trained corset- ieres, since training schools for this purpose will be held periodically at thc larger Canadian cities. Mr. Gibson, in. his usual progressive manner, is taking advantage of this by sending Miss Kirtley to the Calgary school, which will be held In the near future. ThiS insures the ladies of Nelson of corset service far superior to thut usually given in larger cities. Tea was served at the close of the lecture and all present voted the afternoon a pleasant ami most profitable one. The lecture wlH be given this afternoon, introducing new features and arrangements ure-being made to accommodate a larger audience. . An interesting feature of this afternoon's lecture will be advice to mothers on the corseting of young girls and the Gossard Junior wih be featured by ■Miss Htllth Thomson.
