WHERE HE LOST INTEREST Working Man Couldn't See Where There Were Any Bones to Be Left From His Sunday Joint. For half an hour the working-class audience had listened patiently In the talented lady who was speaking to them nliout economical and nourishing cookery. She had talked about egg less puddings and buttorless cakes, and now said, witli a smile: "I will now toll you about a splendid soup which can he made for next to nothing. Take the hones left over from your Sunday Joint " At that a man In the middle of the hall rose to his feet with a disgusted look on his fnce, nnd said to his mate : "'Ere, Bill, let's get out o' tlits." "What's wrong?" asked the other. In surprise. "Don't you like soup?" "Aye, I like soup well enough," wns the grumbler's reply; "but how many bones does she think there are In a half u pound o' liver?" London Tit lilts. ' ) '"-; WOMEN! IT IS MAGIC!

Anti-draft demonstrations, crippling of war industries by so-called labor disturbances, burning of crops and continuous preachment of anti-ally sentiment, intended to embarrass tho government nnd retard tho oxcrclso of its full strength in prosecuting tho wnr, appear, from recent disclosures, to liavo been Included within the ocopo of the alleged conspiracy.

NEWS REVIEW OF THE PAST WEEK Government Finally Closes Down on Industrial Workers of the World. MANY RAIDS AND ARRESTS Italians Continue Victorious Progress Toward Trieste Germans Take "" Riga and Great Naval Battle In the Gulf of Finland Is Expected. By EWARD W. PICKARD. Its war Industries hampered, Its dig nity outraged and its patience ex hausted, the government of the United Suites arose in its might last week and began the process of squashing the dis reputable and disloyal Industrial Workers of the World. In more than n score of cities, mostly In tbu middle and far West, their headquarters and printing ollices were raided and great (luuntltios of material seized. The department of Justice prepared for this action secretly ami carried it out swiftly and skillfully, and Is now ready to have the leaders of the organization Indicted If the documents taken war rant this. In some cities many arrests were made. Prosecutions may bo started under the new csplouugo law, or any ono of sevcrnl other laws. Two of tho things that caused Undo Sam to get ufter tho I. W. W. wero tho preaching of sabotage tho wllfull de struction of property and the uso of "stlckerettcs" designed to obstruct en listing, which were plastered nil over tho country. They aro also accused of misusing the malls to send out mat ter advocating treason, Insurrection and forcible resistance to the laws con cerning the currying on of the war. The documents seized show that tho I. W. W. wus planning u nation-wide strike which, It hoped, would tie up munition plants, railroads and lumber mills, nnd the sabotage advocated wus to bo practiced In connection with this strike. Thero Is a well grounded belief that the leaders of the I. W. W. aro con stantly supplied with funds from Ger man sources, but the greut mass of Its members no doubt are merely Ignorant nnd misled creatures. The national headquarters of tho Socialist party In Chicago also wero raided and hooks and papers seized. "Big Bill" In Eclipse. Another "prominent" opponent of the government William Hale Thompson, tho mayor of Chicago enmo n cropper last week. In dt'dniiftt of the orders of Governor Lowden, he compelled tho police of Chicago to give protection to u meeting of tho pacifists who had been barred from Wisconsin, Minneso ta und other states. Thereupon tho governor sent troops to tho city to pre vent repetition of tho offense, tho city council of Chicago formally rebuked tho mayor, tho agents of the depart ment of Justlco begun inquiries Into his conduct with a view to his Indict ment, the press und peoplo of tho country donounccd him, und his in fnntllo boom for tho Illinois senator- fillip collapsed utterly. IIo did not go to tho Kankakee fair, whero thut boom was slated to bo started. It Is dlfllcult to write of Thompson, Mason nnd oth er still moro prominent foes of their country In printable language. Those who combat tho government's war ef forts "glvo aid and comfort to tho enemy" and oxusperated loyalty won ders why they aro not subjected to tho penalties prescribed by tho law against treason. Great Victory for Italians. When tho Italian armies on Tuesday stormed nnd captured Monte San Ga brielo they took tho lust mountain fort ress burridg their way toward Laibnch and an ndvnuco thut would separate tho northern nnd southern Austrlnn armies. Such a movement probably will compel tho Austrluns to ovneunto Trieste, which has been under shell (Ire from tho water for days, und ulso Is likely to result in tho tuklng of Tol- mlno by Ciidoriiu's forces. In fact, n general retirement of the Austrluns on that front was predicted. In the bat tles on the Itaiuslzza plateau the Ital ians captured Immense quantities of arms and munitions, for tho enemy lied In haste nnd disorder. Nearer the coast, the fortress on Monte llermnda .still held out against furious nttneks, keeping the Italians from advancing on Trieste by that route. Riga Taken by Germans. lllga has fallen, the kaiser rejoices and the war-to-victory party In Ger many has a new argument. Hut this, like the (lulleliin affair, Is rather a cheap victory over a disorganized nrmy, and wits expected. The Uusslans hnvo retired beyond ho Hlver An, lighting fairly well as they veit, and the tierce bravery of tho liattallon of penth enabled them to prepare a new line of resistance. The taking of Itlga gives Germany complete command of tiie Baltic and Ihi) way lies open for an advance on Petrograd by laud, but It is not at all certain the kaiser will go on to the Husslan capital. The route is long and through dilllcult country, nnd the ad vantages of possessing Petrograd might bo offset by such un extension of his Hues Just us winter Is at hand. At the time of writing, It nppenrs like ly that the Gorman P.alt!c lleet will meet tho Russian sen forces In battlo In tho Gulf of Flnlnnd. It Is believed the fortified island of Osel at the head of the Gulf of Riga nnd tho port of Iteval, which guards tlto entrance to tho Gulf ot Finland, cannot lipid out long, und the Itusslan Hoot thus' Is like ly to bo cooped up under the guns of Kronstudt, the great fortress that pro tects tho port of Petrograd. Part of the German fieet already has been sighted nt tho cntrnnco to the Gulf of Finland. Germany's offensive against Russia nppcurs to have been timed to coincide with un expected counter-revolution plunned to restore autocrucy In Russlu. Tho plot, however, was uncovered and mnny urrests of grnnd dukes and oth ers have been made. General Alexlcff, former commander In chief, und General Vassllkovskl, commuiuler of the Petrograd garrison, agreed Thursday that tho full of Riga did not threaten Petrograd and was of moral but not strategic Importance On tho Western Front In France and Flanders tho week brought Ilttlo change In the positions of the opposing urmlcs, though tho fighting was uninterrupted. Tho Brit ish deluged the German lines in Del glum with shell flro that Indicated an other drlvo, and thero wero reports that Crown Prince Ruprecht was pro paring to executo another "strategic rotrcnt" to tho Courtrul-Thourout lino und thus give up a strip of territory cast of Ypres from ten to twenty miles deep. This would help the allies on their way toward tho German subma rine bases at Zoebruggo and othor ports on the Belgian coast. Tho Germans made sovoral air raids on England, killing a number of por sous, especially at Chatham, and ono of their U-boats shelled Scarborough. The British press exhibits somo un easiness lest tho Germuns have "got tho Jump" on the allies in tho matter of Increased nlr forces. Tho United States, howover, is coming fast in this respect, building machines as rapidly us posstbio and training a big army of aviators, hero and abroad. Again on Thursday night tho Gor man aviators devoted their attention to the French hospitals behind the Verdun lines, bomburdlng them for six and a half hours and killing 10 soldiers who already wero sovercly wounded. If u cablegram from Shanghai Is to bo believed, China is about to entor Into active participation In tho war. Tho Twenty-fourth army corps, com posed of 16,000 picked troops from tho northern provinces, Is said to be mobil ized for Immediate departure for Eu rope, probably through Siberia to tho eastern front to assist tho Russians and Roumanians. Tho corps includes several companies of engineers offi cered by Chinese graduates ot Ameri can colleges, and an aviation corps trained by American nnd French air men. These troops would bo tho first Mongolians to fight In Europo since tho time of Genghis Khan, 800 years ago. Argentina two weeks ago wus rejoic ing over u supposed diplomatic victory over Gcrmuny In tho matter of U- honts. Now the South American re public Is in tho throes of a great rail way strike which Is certainly fomented and financed by Germans. Thousands of workmen have quit and there baa been serious destruction of property and considerable rioting. From 'an American port" comes nn exciting story of a concerted attack by seven German submarines on a lleet of lit: allied merchantmen west hound. Four of tho largest of tho steamships wero sunk by torpedoes, but the guns of tho others destroyed thrve of tho U-boats. The battle toolq place SO miles off the coast of Ireland Organized Labor Loyal. Organized Inbor In tho United States, determined to assert its loynN ty, met last week In Minneapolis, to gether with many radicals nnd Social ists, and formed tho American Alliance for Labor und Democracy. Under the leadership of Samuel Gompcrs, Frank P. Walsh, John Spurgo nnd others, tho delegates declared alio new organiza tion firmly hnclc of the armed forces of tho government In their fight for "a victory which will mean the coming of the greatest world democracy ever dreamed of.rt Definite reports hnvo been circulated that iaborltcs are plan ning to cripple various Industries by, strikes, especially tho fuel Industry These reports, Mr. Gompcrs declares, do not relnto to tho American Federa-' tlon of Lnbor. They ure, howover, too well substantiated to be Ignored. Tho British traded union congress by a vote of 2,804,000 to 01,000 declared Itself opposed to participation In the Stockholm congress, and this, tnkeni witli tlto refusal of mnny countries to grunt passports to delegates, probabl will result In tho entire nbnndonmeal of tho gathering In tho Swedish city. I Pope Preparing Second Note. Not wholly discouraged by tho fall uro of his pcaco note, Pope Benedict Is preparing a second proposal for ths ending of tho wnr. Premier Rlbot, speaking on tho Marne battlefield, de clared that a requisite In any peace treaty acceptable to Franco was tho restoration of Alsace-Lorraine. Tho German press continues to heap abuse and rldlculo on President Wil son for his reply to tho pope's note, declaiming loudly against his demands that tho government of Germany be democratized beforo pcaco can be mado with It But tho rclchstng ma jority is Insistently demanding just about tho reforms tho president con siders" essential. Dispatches from Switzerland say the central powers have determined on tho partition of Poland. According to tho plan, Germany is to take about ono-tenth of Russian Poland to rectify her frontier, and Austria will annex the remainder, unite It to Gnllcln and, proclaim tho territory tho united king dom of Poland, with Emperor Charles as its king. It is to have its own par liament, but Its foreign policy, finances and army aro to bo controlled by Aus tria. This plan does not pleaso Hun gary, because that country thinks Its Influcnco will bo lessened If tho em pire becomes a triple kingdom. Led by President Wilson and mem bers of tho senato and house, and es corted by thousands of soldiers and; sailors, tho young men of tho District of Columbia selected for service In the National army paraded tho streets of Washington on Tuesday, and similar' parades took place In hundreds of, cities and towns. Next day these men; of tho National army began streaming from all points of tho compass into, the 10 cantonment camps built for their training and Instruction. They are tho first 0 per cent of the 087,000 men selected by tho draft. Tho long wranglo In tho senate over war profits' taxation ended In the de feat of the high tax group and the adoption of tho finance committee's provisions for a total levy of $1,280, 000,000, or about a third of this year's war and normal excess profits. This would muko the bill total $2,522,000, 000. Thursday night the house passed, unanimously tho big war credits bill authorizing $11,538,045,400 In bonds nnd certificates. Every effort of a group of Republicans to limit Secre tary McAdoo's control over theso Is sues wns defeated, but an amendment by Congressman Cannon wus adopted, exempting from taxes interest on bonds not In excess of $5,000. n rzz.vui jLdsai
