Beaches American Embassy
at Berlin.
LEWIS DEFENDS U. S. NOTE
Berlin, Jan. 5. (Via London.)
The official text of the entente reply
to the peace proposals note finally was
received by the American embassy by
the roundabout route of Washington
and Copenhagen. It will be presented
by Ambassador Gerard to the foreign
office this afternoon. There is no nr.
gency with respect to the presentation,
as tne Swiss minister presented the
official text received from Italy Tues
day. v
Second thought in official circles
confirmes the impression expressed on
the day the press version of the note
was received here that the note rinta
an end for the present to all chances
ot peace and Germanv and its a lies
Lmust buckle down to the task of con
tinuing tne struggle witn all energy.
May Not Entirely Close Door,
It is considered in some nn:irr.r
that the reply of the entente will not
entirely close the door to the possibil
ity or peace discussions, inns whn
hold that belief contend that thi could
oe done either in response to a further
invitation from President Wilson to
both sides to state theip terms simil
taneouslyand confidentially, or ner-
haps through an open declaration of
their terms by the central powers.
Conference of Sovereigns.
London, Jan. 4. Prominence is
given in London newspapers to re
ports ot conferences to be held in
Vienna and Berlin. The inference is
drawn that, as the war staffs are to
take no part, that they will relate to
policy rather than to conduct of the
war.
Emperor William. Emneror Charles
King Ferdinand of Bulearia and the
sultan of Turkey are to meet i.. Vien
na according to the newspaper reports
while the foreign ministers and presi
dents of the parliaments of the Cen
tral powers will assemble in Berlin.
The latter conference has been fixed
for January 19, while that of the sov
ereigns probably will precede it.
Senate Debates Peace Note.
Washington. Jan. 4. The American
note to belligerent powers, suggesting
a discussion oi peace terms, was de
bated again today in the senate but
two hours of attack and defense failed
to bring to a vote the Hitchcock reso
lution endorsing President Wilson's
action in sending it. The resolution
will come up tomorrow, with the pros
pect of further antagonistic speeches
by republicans.
An effort by Senator Hitchcock to
secure unanimous consent for a vote
late tomorrow failed on objrxtion of
Senator Brandcgee.
Lewis Defends Wilson's Action,
The principal speeches todav were
made by Senator Lewis who defended
the president's action, and by Senator
Lodge, who, concluding his attack be
gun yesterday declared the adoption
of the resolution would be a leap into
the dark into international negotia
tions into which congress had no legal
concern and no knowledge.
Senator Lewis answered in detail
the criticisms of the Massachusetts
senator. Replying to the assertion
that tne note had been taken as a fa
vorable move for Germany, he said
it was but natural that one side or
the other to such a controversy should
Tagore III at St. Louis;
Omaha Lecture Date Changed
Sir Rabindranath Tagore, Indian
poet, philosopher and dramatist, who
was to nave lectured at the Brandeis
theater this evening, has been taken
suddenly ill at St. Louis and will be
unable to fill the engagement. Word
of the famous Indian poet's illness
was received in Omaha last night.
A later telegram, however, stated
that Sir Rabindranath will probably

will be on the boards at the Brandeis
theater on that date. Sir Rabindranath
will deliver his lecture in the ball

If Cuticura did no more than
soothe and heal eczemas, rashes,
itchings and burnings, bringing
speedy comfort to tortured, dis
figured men, women and children
it would be entitled to the highest
praise. But it does more. By
using the Soap exclusively for
toilet purposes, allowing no other
soap to touch your skin, with
touches of Cuticura Ointment now
and then to soothe and heal the
first sign of skin troubles, you will
in many cases prevent these dis
tressing experiences. It is always a
pleasure, not an effort, tousethem,
they are so pure and delicate.

Assails Lodge.
He strongly dissented from the
iew expressed by Mr. Lodge that the
adoption of the resolution would
mean the dragging of the United
States into European politics with
c'anger to the Monroe doctrine and
important domestic policies and ac
cused the Massachusetts senator of
incorrectly reciting hist ry to put a
democratic president in a bad light.
Mrs. Cornwallis-West to
Keep More in Background
London,' Jan. 5. The Daily Mail
learns that Mrs. William Cornwallis
West, who has been severely censured
by a court of inquiry in connection
with army affairs, has decided to re
tire from every kind of public work.
Get, at any drug store, a bottle of
zemo for 25c or $1.00 for extra large
ize. Use as directed, for it does the
work quickly. It kills the dandruff
perm, nourishes the hair roots and im
mediately stops itching scalp. It is
pure, reliable, antiseptic liquid, is not
greasy, is easy to use and will not stain.
Soaps and shampoos are harmful, ai
they contain alkali. The best thing to
use for scalp irritations is zemo, for k
is safe and also inexpensive.
