Helsingfors, Sept 27. There is a
1 Russian boy-prince in Helsingfors
who goes practically barefoot. .His

Jiis way over the hard, cobbled
meets.
The Barefoot Prince.
The barefoot prince typifies the
plight of many of the best Musco
vite families. The silent suffering
nd unshed tears of these people
the flotsam of the old regime
Vould niakt a story full of pathos
fit to raise the pity of many a har-r
dened class fanatic. There are
thousands of Russian families en
suring the direst hardships of pov
erty and the agonies of long months
of mental and physical torture just
because their gentle birth consti
tutes them the hated enemy of the
Russian proletariat. Some of them
are living in misery under the Red
terror, ' daily awaiting the execu
tioner; others are enduring a bitter
exile in' iscanciinavian countries, anx--iously
looking forward ot the day
of their deliverance. Many.of them
' would help themselves if they could,
, but they were never taught to earn
their living, so nobody will employ
." them. ' f
Second Violinist.
The barefoot prince is but a rung
i lower on the ladder of misfortune
j than many of his kind. In the
busiest restaurant in Helsingfors a
J gray-haired man of aristocratic
l bearing play second violin, He
J U an ex-colonel of the - Russian

' , figure. " i

i a squalid courtyard in Helsingfors,
' there is a .Russian nobleman who
, has put all the splendor ,of the past
behind him and now keeps the wolf

He works at night, and his wife re
t. tails the cakes during a daily round,

Nurses Consider 12
Hours Long Enough
For Full Day's Work
San Francisco, Sept. 27. Eight
hundred nurse9 belonging to the San
Francisco County Nurses' associat
ion are planning to demand more
fay and shorter hours on the first
of the coming month. Announce
lent to this effect has just been
:ade at the headquarters of the as
ociation. . . ,
. The, increase is made necessary
by the mounting prices of living ne-i
tessities and it is expected that it
will be granted. There will be no
strike nor threat to strike. The
nurses will merely refuse -to take
rases where the demands are not
met. .
The nurses will demand $5 a day
for, a 12-hour work day on ordinary
cases and $6 a day on maternity
cases. At the present time the
nurses receive $30 a week for ordi
nary cases and are subject to ca1
during the entire 24 hours. They
are supposed to have two hours off
. during- the afternoon, but say they
eklom have this..
' The new, schedule will not affect
patients in hospitals because they
are entitled to treatment at all
.hours and will receive it, but the
attending nurses will not be on duty
such long hours. In cases where
' patients desire to have special nurses
it will be necessary for them to em
' ploy two or be satisfied with the
special nurse for 12 hours each day.
In home cases , if constant atten
tion is desired two nurses will have
s to be employed. " i
Harvard Medical School
. . Swamped With Applicants
' Cambridge Mass.,V Sept. 27.--The
greatest number of applications ever
-made' for admission to'the Harvard
- Medical school, three times more
; than the school can accommodate,
have been received. Of the 400 apj
plicants, 280 must be refused, and
even with this culling there is an
increase of -30 over the previous
limit of 90 for first-year students,
i Harvard officials' explain the great
, Increase by the . work of Harvard
medical men in the war, which they
-say has brought the school to a po
sition of. pre-eminence among the
. colleges of medicine and surgery in
this country.
Des Moines City Detective Is
"I . -Shot and Killed by Negro
. Des Moines, la.. Sept. 27. (Spe
rial Telegram.) Con J. McCarthy.
" night city detective, was shot and
' dlled early this morning by a ne
gro whom "he had placed under
sfrest. Officers arrived on the scene
; -soon after the shooting arid ex
' hanged shots with the, negro, who
scaped after being chased several
blocks v ; ;. , -

suspicion of being a house prowler

Prayer by Compass; .
Musselmans Locate
East In London Fog
.London, Sept. 27. Praying by
compass may have its disadvantages
and all that, but if you were a .de
vout Musselman from the hinter
land of Sudan and found yourself
housed for the first time in a Lon
don hotel you'd either have to pray
by compass or not at all.
Sir SaidAli El Morghani, Said
Abd 1 Rahman 1 Mahdi and their
dark-skinned companions of the Su
danese diplomatic mission to King
George find themselves in this pre
dicament. Wherefore when the
prophet's sacred hour of prayer
draws near and each Sudanese gen
tleman gets out his little prayer rug
to lav between the rosewood clothes
press and the brass bedstead in the
Hotel Savoy's more or less palatial
royal suite, the single jnagnetic
needle brought along from Africa as
part of the company's necessary
equipment points unerringly to the
blessed east. ' ?
. So each devout follower 6f Mo
hammed knows just how to place
his prayer rug in relation to that
part of smoky London revealed by
the windows.
The visits of the chiefs o tribes
in the Sudan to Buckingham palace
drew a large crowd to the-gates to
see these very stately and imposing
personages in their flowing white
dress. They came from the Sudan,
wherenot many years ago Kitchen
er was leading a British army, to
congratulate the king on the victory
of the allies. The head of .the mis
sion is Sir Said Ali El Morghani,
whose loyal address to the king was
interpreted from the Arabic by Sir
Reginald Wingate.
One point in the speech was that,,
whereas former wats only decided
the fate of belligerent nations, this
war had involved the future of all
weak nations, among which was the
Sudan. He spoke also of the loyalty
of the Sudanese during the war in
spite of the intrigues of the enemy.
Then a beautiful gold sword was
presentd to the king by Said Abd El
Rahman El Mahdi, who is a son of
the Mahdi whose fame was once so
great, with oriental expressions of
fealty and submission.
The king replied at some length,
asking the, chiefs to convey to the
tribes in the Sudan his appreciation
of their loyalty and wishes for the
welfare of the country. The chiefs
received decorations and on leaving
the palace drove to the York House.
There is, of course, considerable
political importance in this ceremo
nial visit.
South Dakota Boasts
First Memorial Park
Washington, Sept. 27. Davidson
county, South Dakota, is one of the
first counties in the country to re
port a memorial grove planting to
the American Forestry association.
Hitchcock park, at Mitchell, will be
turned into a memorial park by ad
ditional tree planting and a boulder
placed in the center with the names
of the county heroes. The American
Forestry association is registering
all memorial trees in a national
honor roll.
Corsets to be Dearer. -
London. Corsets will cost still
more next spring, owing to the
higher wages paid workers and trTfe
increased price of steels from the
United States. Already the cheaper
qualities are three times the pre-war
price, and the new advance will
very nearly quadruple the 1914 sell
ing price.

Cattle There were no cattle of any con
sequence here today, the week'a total of
63,700 head, while over 10,000 smaller than
a week, ago, was a little larger than" moat
traders expected. The heaviest feeder de
mand of the Beason featured the market
thla week and stockers an feedera of all
classes aOvanced 60c to 31.00. The heavy
buying of stockers and feedera made such
inroads on the supply of fat cattle that
packers also had to boost prices In order
to get stuff enough to supply their needs,
and as a result western cattle of all de
scrlptlon are generally 40o to 61.00 higher
for the week. . .

Corn Continues to Slump.
. During Last Week's Trading
Chicago, Sept 27. Notwithstanding as
sertions In some quarters that farm com
modities have of late dropped to. a point
probably below the real cost of produc
tion, the downward slide of the corn mar
ket has made further progress this week
Corn prices this morning showed declines
varying from c to 3c a bushel compared
with a week ago. Oats were unchanged
to . 0 lower. In provisions, the dif
ferences ranged from $1.60 decline to
tl.22Vi advances . ..
One of the main reasons ascribed for the
fresh setback in the value of corn was the
prospect that this year the new crop
would be ready to market much earlier
than usual. In this connection, a good
deal of notice was taken of the fact that
one shipment of new corn was slated to
arrive In Chicago MOnday, beating pre
vious records by about two weeks. Be
sides, reports Indicated that new corn was
conditioning rapidly in all sections, and
that to an Important extent, the plan by
which producers would systematically cur
tall offerings had failed to meet with
general acceptance. The bearish lnflu
enence ot the steel strike was completely
discounted before hand.
Oats were steadied somewhat by a
bulge In foreign exchange rates.
Lard rose owing to a big decrease In
the warehouse stock of the commodity
here.. Other provisions weakened with
corn.
'. v Chicago Grain and Provisions.
Chicago, Sept 27 Week-end adjust
ment of trades led to a material advance
today In the value of new- crop deliveries
of corn, but September showed weakness.
The market closed unsettled, c net
lower to 3c gain, with December $1.26
to $1.26 and May $1.23 to $1.23. Oats
finished lWc to 2 He up, and provisions
varied from 40c decline to a rise of $1.60.
General covering on the part of shorts
In December and May corn kept those
months on the ud grade throuehoht the
session. It- was apparent, however, that
noiaers 01 aepiemoer contracts were liq
uidating and that, although September
deliveries had been smaller than exoected.
any prospect of a squeexe In the remain
ing days of the month was not looked
ttpon by many dealers as serious. On the
other hand, the smallness of the Septem
ber deliveries and the lightness of offer
ings tended to make shorts uneasy as to
wnetner new crop supplies would come
forward freely. Besides, hog quotations
were higher, and bullish sentiment waa
Indirectly encouraged by an advance In
foreign exchange rates likely to stimu
late the export of oats and provisions.
- Oats displayed Independent strength aa
a i result of enlarged seaboard Inquiry,
supposed to be for Scandinavian countries.
Provisions averaged higher with grain
and hogs. Packers bought lard. ,
FINANCIAL
New -York, Sept . 17. Wall street ex
pressed today Its strengthening belief In
an early settlement of tha steel strike
by heavy purchase of leading stocks,
most -of which rose to highest prices of
tha- week. ,,".,,'. ,

and Bethlehem, which rivaled, it in point
of activity, rose T points. vV'l
Crucible steel was the central feature,
however, lta extreme advance to the new
high record of $3.17 being accomplished
at the further expense of -the shorts.
Crucible made a net gain of 11 V4 points,
or a total of 16 since Thursday's final
quotation. . .

dwarfed all other developments of the
week In the stock market, but the upward
rnurae of prices In the later dealings In
dicated strong hopes that normal rondl
tlonc In that Industry soon would be re
stored, , ...
Shares of the irlany manufacturing con
cerns largely if not wholly deperldent upon
stability in the steol trede maintained a
firm tone with pronounced strength and
several sensational advances In specialties.
Metal reflected a moderate revival of
speculative Interest although trade con
ditions indicated by the poor earnings of
the Amerlcsn Smelting company and lower
prices for refined copper were not en
couraging. . ,
Ralls were again the one Important
group to show little animation. Interest in
that quarter being limited to shares of
which gains were mostly cancelled.
Industrial unrest retsrded new financ
ing, the one large offering consisting of
American Telephone notes amounting to
$50,000,000 taken bye a prominent hanking
syndicate. It is understod thht several
foreign loans and commercial credits are
nenrlng consummation. , . ,
. General domestlo trade ss reported by
the mercantile agenclea continues to be
adversely influenced by strike disorders,
there having already caused cancellation
of orders and In other ways checked com
mercial expansion.
