FEW DANCERS GO
TO THE MASK BALL
Social Leaders and Governor
Chaperon Event, Which Waa
V on Elaborate Lines.
NUMBER IS DISAPPOINTING
The mask ball at the Den last night
was a pleasant affair, but the attend
ance , might have been much larger
without taxing the capacity of the
building."; In fact, there were only
about 150 spectators. There were,
possibly, 250 to 300 dancing. ' -
There was a big orchestra and all
the beautiful settings of the castle of
the king, just as they were the night
before when the king was crowned.
The mask ball started off, like the
coronation ball, with the appearance
of sixty dancing girls in flowing robes
of green and yellow and red, sugges
tive of woodland colors. Several of
the girls were only 3 to 5 years old
and their dancing and pirouetting won
great applause. '
The evening dress of a number of
social leaders blended with the cos
tumes of the other maskers, the nurse,
the bad man of the west, the Mexican.
Dutch boy, iockey, toreador, "rube,
lady of the harem, Japanese, convict,
Arab and so on.
The Ak-Sar-Ben t governors Were
there also in their evening togs,
among those noticed being Messrs. .
Buckingham, L. ( C. Nash, George
Brandeis, and their wives.
The fact that the turnout was a dis-
appointment was not concealed r by
those in charge of the ball.'

CAPITAL IS STIRRED
BY U-53'5 VISITS
Naval Officials Greatly Inter
ested in TriJ of Armed
Subsea Across Atlantic
DISCUSSvirS SIGNIFICANCE
Washington, Oct 8. While the fly
ing visit of the German war submarine
to Newport harbor was ' the main
topic of discussion among navy offi
cers tonight, it was the probable mis
sion of the submarine which interested
them rather than the mechanical fea
tures of the submersible or the signi
ficance of its trip from Germany as it
might affect naval warfare. t: ;
The distance covered by the sub
marine from Wilhelmshaven is well
within the cruising radius of much
smaller vessels than the U-53, includ
ing some of the older craft of the
American navy. . However, it is be
lieved that even the big "U" boats
could not carry enought fuel oil for
a round trip across the Atlantic as
well as for a tour of cruising duty on
this side. For this reason many of
ficers appeared to believe that the
purpose of the U-53 must have been
more to give a demonstration ot the
possibilities - of submarine warfare
than actually to lie in wait for British
or Canadian vessels plying across the
Atlantic.
, Much Greater Sensation.
The merchant submarine Deutsch
land crossed the Atlantic and i re
turned, but it is realized that the ap
pearance of an armed naval under
water boat will create a much more
profound impression, particularly
upon the public mind in this country.
It was expected that the visit would
revive immediate rumors of a German
submarine base on the north Atlantic
coast and of . secret radio . stations
maintained along the American coast
line by German interests for the pur
pose of communicating with the un
dersea boats. ,
For a submarine patrol off Ameri
can or Canadian ports, provision
would have to be made to supply the
fuel, -torpedoes and food supply. The
average submarine carries not more
than, ten or twelve torpedoes at most
and since the chances are that several
of these would be fired for every hit
recorded, it would seem necessary
that a reserve supply be kept close at
nana. -

The Old Ant Lion
" ' Gives a Fetv Lessons'
(All th incidents described hava actual

her. deacrlbcd. Thi ant-lion, when It

' By. GARRETT P. SERVISS.
A large and vigorous ant-lion (it
was only half an inch long, but big
enough for its world), stood, as if
hesitating, in the midst of a sunny
sand plain, several yards; square,
across which a crazy-seeming ant now
and 'then ran a crooked course in
search of something it could not find,
while once a gilded chrysomelian
beeter, a dazzling, living emerald,
frolden green above and purple green
below, alighted for an instaiit,iily to
disappear in a flash of jeweled fire.
The ant-lion regarded the ants,
and perhaps the brilliant beetle,,
with satisfaction. Their appearance
seemed to put an end" to its hesita
tion.. It stretched wide its long,
forceps-shaped mandibles just once,
as a tiger will unsheath his teeth
,at sight of his prey, and then it set
itselt in motion, going DacKwaras,
after the immemorial fashion of its
ancestors.
It was an ugly beast, with its
large, square' head, and its oval,
dull gray, warty body shaped like
a wood louse, and its movements
were slow and deliberate, so much
so, indeed, that an onlooker might
have wondered what danger could
threaten such agile creatures as
ants from so cumbersome an enemy
as this.
The ant-lion had hardly taken its
first backward step when another
of its kind, evidently young and in
experienced, approached from the
shelter of a neighboring grass tuft,
and immediately the big fellow, as
naturally as if he had been a two
legged hoer of corn, stopped, and,
metaphorically leaning on his hoe,
fell into conversation with his
visitor.
"Good day," he . said. "It's good
weather for ants and there are Jots
of thenr. about here. They're good
eating, too. Have yon come to learn
how .to catch them? If so, now is
your chance, for nobody understands
that business better than I do."
I suppose I ought to know bv
nature," replied the youngster, "but
I'm willing to learn from such an
old headjas you." ,
i nen watch me.
The old fellow thereupon resumed
his scarcely begun labor, and his new
companion followed .all his motions
with curiosity. Thrusting the end of
his abdomen into the soft sand, the
worker plowed backward with all the
strength of his six stout, hairy legs,
and with a geometrical instinct ri
valing that of a bee marked out a
perfect circle about nine and and a
half inches in circumference, or three
inches across. .1
There I" he exclaimed when the
circle was finished. "That's done,
and you'll never see a better."
If he had been familiar with hu
man history (which no doubt he
would have despised as a jiack of
yarns about absurd giants) he might
have compared his teeatj with that ot
Romulus when he plowed the out
lines of his coming city. ,
Ihe next proceeding of the ant-
lion would have been a lesson to
canal I builders. He placed himself
at the inner edge of the circular fur
row and, moving Slowly backward,

while keeping ai accurately to the
curve as if his body had been the
tracing point of a pair of compasses,
he made a scoop-shovel of one of his
legs, with ' which he continually
heaped loads of displaced sand upon
his broad head and jerked them, with
powerful -exertions of the neck
muscles, to a distance of several
inches beyond the outer limits of the
circle. . , -
The young ant-lion looked on witn
sctmiratinn. and would have clapped
jiis hands if he had had any, while he
watched this living combination 01
excavator and dredger, reinforced
with the ejecting powers of a cata-
pult, sweep slowly round the circle,
regularly widening and deepening
the original furrow on the inner side.
Round and round went the won
derful insect, making circle within
circle, each at a lower level, because, -with
an instinct to which science
could have taught nothing, he always
used as inside leg to scoop up the
sand, and never an outside one.
Thus, when at length he reached
the center, he was at the bottom of
a conical excavation in the sand, all
of the materia! that had filled the
space having been thrown outside
the circumference of the bounding
circle. The depth of the excavation
was about two inches, so that the"
sandy walls were as steep as they
could be made without caving in.
During this triumphant exhibition ,
of the highest skill and knowledge '
of his race, the younger ant-lion re
mained at the brink of the circular
cavity, peering down with increasing
interest and receiving frequent warn
ings from the busy worker below to
keep out of the way and to stop roll
ing sand down. Presently, provoked
by the awkwardness of the visitor,
who incautiously sent an avalanche
down into the pit, the excavator mut
tered: "I'll fix you, young fellow!"
He had just come upon a pebble
in the sand half as big as himself.
With astonishing jstrength and skill,
lie worked it upon his head and,
exerting all his force, he hurled it
with unerring aim, taking the dis
turber full under the jaws, like an
uppercut in the prize - ring, lifting
him from his feet smd rolling him
over. But he was tough ant-lions,
naturally . are and no bones, or
their equivalents, were broken.
"Now." called the big fellow, "my
work's finished. Slide down and do
as I tell you. Burv yourself in. the
sand by my side, so that only your

sooner or later some curious ant or
other toothsome insect will put his
feet on the crumbling brink and
come down with a rush of sand, then

Why Bread Prices
Must Advance
A year ago we could make the Sc
loaf at a small profit. v
Flour was then $4.50 per bbl. Now
it's 18.00. Milk was $4.55 per 100 lbs.
Now it's $5.65. Lard was $9.00. Now
$14.70. Vegetable oil was 46He a gal
lon.. Now 88 2-3c. Sugar was $5.20
per 100 lbs. Now $7.00. Wrapping
paper was $1.38 per . 1,000. Now
$3.00. Gasoline (for delivery), Is dou
ble, fuel oil up 70 per, cent, horse
feed 25 per cent, machinery 25 pe
cent to 50 per cent.
Now, we must either materially re. I
duce the weight of 5c and 10c loaves,
or eliminate 5c loaves and reduce tht)
10c loaf only slightly.
Which do you prefer? YouH AL
WAYS get more and better bread fo
your money in 10c loaves than in 5a
loaves.
Won't you cast your vote by refuse
ing to buy 5c loaves in the futuret
