GOVERNMENT OF
GERMANY NOW IN
IIANDS0F ARMY
Monarchist Reaction Reported
"Growing1 in Berlin and
Military Controlling the
. New Government.
London',' March 17, Special dis
patches from Berlin report that the
suppression of the recent Spartacan
outbreak there has shown thai a
military aruj monarchist reaction is
growing and overshadowing the
new government.
The Berlin correspondent of the
Mail, who on February 27 sent a
dispatch, , outlining plans for a
monarchist uprising in Germany,
has arrived in London, having left
Berlin on March 14, after a resi
dent there of three months. He
reiterates the statements made in his
dispatch, saying that President
Ebert, Chancellor Scheidemann and
Minister of War Noske are merely
puppets. He declares - that for the
purpose of retaining power they
nave allowed menibetrs of the mili
tary caste to reappear as organizers
of the new republican armies.
"These men are the real gov
ernors of Germany," he says. ''They
make the edicts and Chancellor
Scheidemann and his colleagues
willingly sign them."
Army Rules Again. j
Similar testimony is given 1 y other
correspondents in telegraphing from
Berlin, some stating that the cap
ture of the suburb of Lichtenberg
lias been intentionally prolonged
with a view to exterminating the
Spartacans, whose treatment at the
hands of government troops is said
to be sharply condemned. While
alleged atrocities are attributecT to
the Spartacans, details which have
teen given are doubted or denied.
be much exaggerated'. The corre
spondents concur 'in the statement
that extreme bitterness has been ere.
ated against the government troops
and that further trouble is inevit
able. According to a dispatch to the
Mail, the Spartacan revolt will cer
tainly recur in ever increasing forces
unless a miracle happens. It adds
that Herr Noske's forces have been
recruited by bribes and promise of
big ration and that to this may be
attributed some of the food shortage
in Berlin.
Little Importance
Attached to Tien Tsin
Trouble by Minister
Washington, March 17. Minister
Reinscii at Peking advised the
State department today that all wa
quiet at Tien Tsen, where there was
trouble last week, between Ameri
can soldiers and Japanese, and that
he, was sending a full report of the
incident by mail. The department
instructed him to report all impor
tant facts by cable immediately.
The minister ,has made po men-
tion of the nature of the difficulty.
The fact that Minister Reinsch
thought it unnecessary to send his
report by cable is regarded here as
indicating that he did not' attach
great importance to the matter.

Halifax. N. S., March 17. Port
officials were notified last night by
raidio that the Cunard line steam
ship Carmania with 3,000 Canadian
troops and many . civilians, enroute
to the United States, on boaard, will

intended that the vessel would go to
New York. On board is Canada's
famous fighting battalion, the "Prin

that left here shortly after war was,
declared, only eight men and one
officer, Lt Hamilton Gaut, of Mon

THREE MILLIONS
MORE ASKED FOR
WAR INSURANCE
Forty Million Dollars Now
Being' Paid Out Monthly,
Say$ Secretary Glass
of Bureau.
Washington, March 17. Secretary
Glass has asked President Wilson to
set aside more than $3,000,000 from
the presidential war emergency fund
to cbver the cost of continued opera
tion of the war risk Insurance bu
reau for the next few months until
congress can remedy its rectnt fail
ure to appropriate funds for the bureau-
The president has not yet
given an answer and if he does not
make the money available, the ac
tivities of the war risk bureau may
be greatry curtailed.
It was officially stated today that
the bureau has funds to cover allot
ment and allowance checks to be
sent out during the remainder of
March and during April. This really
means March allowances, since the
checks are distributed one month
late. Unless some available funds
are found by early in May, allotment
and allowances may be delayed.
The funds asked of President Wil
son will be sent only for administra
tive expenses of physical operations
of the bureau and not for actual cov
ering of allotment and allowance
checks. With approximately 15,000
employes the bureau's payroll now
is more than $1,000,000 a month.
About 1,200,000 checks for allot
ments, allowances,' insurance and
compensation now are mailed
monthly, amounting in the aggregate
to more than $40,000,000. Nearly
half of this sum comes from the War
department and represents soldiers'
allotments. There is no shortage in
the funds for allotments since this
is deducted from soldiers' pay, buts
the funds available for allowances
added to the allotments are limited.

year on that price,", she said.
Miss Towns drew attention to the
poor balance in the social life of the
school, a condition which she said
the school could not remedy.
!'ome of our girls have too much
social life while, hundreds of girls go
four years through high school,
never attending one party or ever
speaking to a boy. 1 his is not right
Every girl or high school age should
have some recreation, but the teach
er who gives an algebra lesson
should not chaperone a dancing
party. The teacher does everything
else but putting the child to bed and
hearinar its oravers. iht commu
nity should take over the social life
or our young people.
Miss Towne made a strong plea
for support of girls who are forced
to give up school for financial rea
sons.
"I wish people with money would
stop giving it to colleges and uni
versities for a little while and give
some to high sehopls. Last year $60
kept two girls in school. Other girl
whom we had no funds to assist
wept bitterly for weeks because they

"The big surprise to me is that
our girls are as good as they are
borne of them have bad manners,
some of them are silly, write notes
and about six out of the 1,000
use rouge, but we have never had any
serious moral problem in the 20
years of my connection with Cen
tral High school, with an average of
1,000 girls in school each year." '

Wears Corner of $50 Bill
in Coat Lapel for Saint
The verdant decoration worn
by City Treasurer Frank T. True,
a corner of a $50 bill pinned on
the lapel of his coat, attracted
much attention by those honor
ing St. Patrick's day. The valu
able bit of gree ; was not the re
sult of the conscious mutilation
of any of Uncle Samuel's cur
rency; bnt it was found several
years ago after the heavy re
ceipts of the qays cash had been
sent to the bank, lying on Treas
urer True's office table. Efforts
to find the bill from which it had
been detached failed, and the bit
of paper has remained undisturb
ed in his possession. Each year
he religiously pins it to his coat
and "points with pride" to his de
votion to the memory of Ireland s
patron saint.

'If you deny the people of Ireland

"The history of Ireland has been
written in blood and tears. She has
been fighting the battles of others
for centuries. She has always play

of civilization and has ever stood
like a bright star in the heavens
to guide and light the .way of down

Henry Starr, Bandit
and Bank Robber, Out
After Serving 5 Years
Oklahoma City, Okl, March 17.
Henry Starr, 48 years old, bank rob
ber and bandit, arrived in Oklahoma
City today, paroled from the state
penitentiary at McAlester by Gov
ernor Robertson. Starr had been in
prison since 1915, when he was cap
tured after a series of bank robber
ies in Oklahoma,' Kansas and Ar
kansas that were marked by ex
treme boldness.
The capture of Starr was effected
at Stroud, Okl., in March, 1915.
Paul Carry, 16 years old, shot Starr
in one hip while the bank robber
and his men were escaping after
robbing a bank.
Starr pleaded guilty and was sen
tenced to 25 years in prison, with
the agreement, Governor Robertson
said today that he would be paroled
within five years. I he parole, the
governor explained today, is merely
rarrvinar out the terms ot the aarree-
1 ment entered into by the prosecu
tion at the time of the trial.

Berlin, Saturday, March 17. (By
the. Associated Press.) Fifty-five
persons have been killed and 170
wounded in the riots at Halle. Two
hundred and eighty persons have
been arrested , for pillaging. The

the sections of the country outside
of Halle, a state of siege has been
proclaimed over Uitterfeld, Ue-
litzsch, Muencheln, Merseburg and
Koennern.
Rioting on the part of peasants in
Windschlag, ' near Offenburg, Ba

ings. We haven't a single building
in the city which would be fit to
house an -audience for a concert or
grand opera.
"Jit his article Mr. Rosewater told
enough about the barn-like appear
ance of the building. It is my aim
to tell of some of the fundamental
faults of Us construction.
"First of all, it should have
portable stage, which could be
moved to suit small conventions
and concerts, which under the pres
ent construction of the stage are
virtually lost in the hall.
second 1 he entire basement
should be excavated. At the present
time only about one-fourth ot tne
basement is used, and if the whole
space was excavated it would mean
a room approximately lZx64 feet,
out of which a boiler room would
have to be constructed. The boiler
room, however, could be placed un
der the sidewalk on Howard street.
Ceiling Should Be Built.
"Third A ceiling should be built
to improve the acoustics and the
appearance, of the building.
.fourth Ihe building needs an
entire new roof.
"Fifth The front and north side
of the building should be finished.
Sixth The lobby should be re
arranged. At the present time the
manager s office is on the second
floor. It should be transferred to
the main floor.
"Seventh New arrangements of
ramps in the balcony should be
made.
"Eighth The dressing rooms
should be removed from over the
stage and placed beneath it.
Ninth Ihe entire house should
be rewired. Under the present sys
tem new wires have to be laid each
time a show, exposition or conven
tion is held."
Lesson From Show.
The article Mr. Powell refers to
follows:
"One lesson of the present Auto
show should not be lost upon us
Omaha people, and that is the possi
bility and practicability of making
our Auditorium artistically attrac
tive m contrast with its customary
barnlike appearance. What has been
done in the way of decorating the
ceiling and walls' has completely
transformed the interior of the
building. If this result can be ac
complished for the moment with the
use of temporary material, it surely
could be matched and improved on
by permanent work. Having put all
that money into the erection of the
structure and then having turned it
over to the city at a small part of
the cost, it ought to be worth while
to do the rest needed to give ns an
auditorium that will be attractive
and comfortable as well as servicea
ble."

Prices Paid for Hogs
Chicago, March 17. The food ad
ministration has not authority to fix
hog prices but may and does limit
profits on pork food products," ac
cording to a telegram received to
night by Everett C. Brown, chair
man of the hog prices committee in
Chicago from f". S. Snyder, chair
man of the meat division of the
Food administration in Washington.
The telegram was in reply to one
sent last Friday by Brown, follow
ing a conterence here between
packers and representatives of the
Food administration regarding fix
ing of a maximum price for hogs.
Brown said he was confident the
farmers would be pleased if a maxi
mum price of $17.50 to $18 would
be set. These were the sums sug
gested at the conference and an of
ficial announcement was expected
from Washington soon, Brown said,
Lightweight and Easy Move A
Some of Holmes Features-
The Holmes automobile which
embodies several engineering feat-; '
ures brought about by the aeroplane ,(

attention to the extreme lightp

with which it can be rolled.
Light weight and ease of move ment
are vital factors in the afters

Mr. Holmes, manufacturer of the!
Holmes automobile, in addition to
several other individual features,
paid a great deal of attention to the
things that mean much to the op

Your Other Brain
Down in the abdominal cav
ity lies a great "plexus" or
network of nerve centres,
that has been called the "abdominal-brain."
It cannot
think. Its functions are to
superintend and keep in
operation various mechan
ical processes, such as the
proper secretion of mois
ture by intestinal glands and
adequate action of intestinal
muscles in the walls of the
bowels.
It receives messages from
nerves in various regions of
the body, but being unable to
reason, it often acts blindly,
imperfectly, or improperly.
It may stop secretion, lessen
muscular action and the
result is constipation.
Castor oil, pills, salts, min
eral waters, etc., do not
reason with the abdominal

effort, until the bowels

Nujol is not a drug, does

Nujol acts mechanically to

regular intervals.
Nujol supplies neoetsary moisture
