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

You apply a few drops di

Freezone Is wonderful. It

asked whether It is necessary to hnvo

on tho ground that his wife Is depend

"Won't nnyono else do?" tho Inquirer
asked. "My wife says sho won't sign

Tho board member told tho man that

be fast accumulating to support tho

that its ramifications hnvo extended
into virtually every staato and that
numerous autl-war aactlvitics which
appeared to emanate from mnny
sources In reality had their fountain
head In a single group of conspirat

of war industries by so-called labor

continuous preachment of anti-ally

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.
