Summary of News.
(Continued from page four.)
weeks ago the State Department sug
gested to Great Britain and her allies
that in future merchantmen be un
armed. The proposition met with dis
favor in every allied foreign office.
Formal rejection of the plan is ex
pected from London, Paris, Rome and
Petrograd. Now Germany and Aus
tria, however, complicate the situation
by accepting without reservation the
proposition made to their enemies.
While the United States regards ac
ceptance on the part of the central
powers as a victory for its contention
that unarmed merchantmen must not
be sunk without warning, the condi
tions of acceptance are such that end
less complication hardly can be pre
vented.
At San Francisco Friday twenty
seven indictments were returned
against William F. Boyce assistant
United States immigration commis
sioner here, other immigration officers,
employees of the Pacific Mail Company,
and a San Francisco custom house
broker charging them with conspiracy
to smuggle Chinese into the United
States. The indictments followed an
investigation by the grand jury into
the dscovery of eighty-six contraband
Chinese on the liner Mongolia when
that vessel arrived October 17, 1915,
from the Orient.
The Amsterdam Courant states that
Prussian causalty lists Nos. 420 and
429 show 19,339 dead, wounded and
missing and lists Nos. 430 to 439 show
18,349 dead, wounded and missing.
The total Prussian losses are computed
by this newspaper as 2,377,378. The
German military losses include 335
lists of casualties of Wurtemberg for
ces, 247 Bavarian lists, 248 Saxon lists
sixty navy and some lists concerning
German officers and noncommissioned
officers in the Turkish service.
Disposition of the British liner Ap
pam, brought into Hampton Roads by
a German prize crew, has been decided
upon by the United States and will be
announced soon. Although there is no
official confirmation, the indications
are that the ship will be permitted to
remain in American waters as a prize
of the Germans indefinitely, under the
terms of the Prussian-American
treaty.
President Wilson practically won his
fight for ratification of the Nicaraguan
treaty in the executive session of the
Senate today. Some of its most vigor
ous opponents said the administration
WILL YOU DO SO?
When you want something
very badly you put into it all
your heart and soul and
energy. You give it your
time—your thought— your
attention. Is there anything
that is worth as much energy
as accumulating money in
our Bank? Is there any
thing which will give you
more satisfaction in the fu
ture? Why not make up
your mind to use your ut
most endeavors to build up a
big Bank Account here? You
can do it—if you will.

necessary two-thirds and they pre
dicted its ratification. The treaty pro.

Rather than be captured, twenty
seven men of the crew of a German
submarine trapped in the English
Channel off the Isle of Wight killed
themselves, according to Dr. M. S.
Inglis, a Canadian army surgeon, who
arrived in New York Thursday. He
said each of the sailors was found to
have a bullet wound in the head. Dr.
Inglis said he was in Dover when four
German submarines were brought in.
With a British naval officer he went
down into one in which the crew were
shot. The periscope of the craft had
been broken off by a chain drag of
British patrol boats. Dr. Inglis said a
British naval officer told him that
fifty-nine German submarines had
either been captured or sunk.
Each day of the last month 1000
men have enlisted in Canada for
service over-seas. Trained men are
being sent across the Atlantic at the
rate of almost 500 a day. The number
of officers and sergeant instructors is
increasing rapidly through training in
Canada and the return of disabled men
from the front. Military camps will
be opened in each province as soon as
the weather permits.
Aniceto Pizana, alleged leader of the
“Texas revolution,” who is declared to
have been responsible for the border
trouble last summer and fall, was
captured late Thursday afternoon and
brought to Matamoros, Mexico, oppo
site Brownville, Tex., for imprison
ment, according to an official report
today to Col. A. P. Blocksom, com
manding the United States border
patrol. With Pizana were captured
four other alleged Mexican bandits.
All are being held incomunicado in the
Matamoros Jail.

States senator from Illinois, was in the

An autopsy was performed Thurs
day night at Chicago by the coroner’s
physician on the body of Miss Marion
Frances Lambert, the 18-year-old high
school student which was found in a
wooded section of Lake Forest, 111.,
and enough poison was found in the
girl’s stomach to have caused death.
Detectives today continued their
efforts to find the man who accom
panied Miss Lambert into the woods.
His foot prints were found paralleling
hers to the spot where the body was
found. From there the tracks led to
the tracks of the Chicago and North
western Railroad, where the taril was
lost.

COMFORTING WORDS.
Many An O’Neill Household Will Find
Them So.
To have the pains and aches of a
bad back removed—to be entirely free
from annoying, dangerous urinary dis
orders, is enough to make any kidney
sufferer grateful. The following ad
vice of one who has suffered will prove
comforting words to hundreds of
O’Neill readers.
J. J. Lingel, farmer, Page, Neb.,
says: “I had a lot of trouble from
backache and an almost constant sore,
ness just over my kidneys. If I took
cold, the pain got very severe and left
me so lame for a few days that I
couldn’t work. I tried several medi
cines but with no benefit. Finally, I
used Doan’s Kidney Pills and they
cured me.
Price 50c, at all deaiers. Don’t
simply ask for a kidney remedy—get
Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that
cured Mr. Lingel. Foster-Milbum Co.,
