CAPTURED BY FRENCH

PARIS, Anp. 27.—Lieut Schwieper. the man who sank the Iusitania, has been captured by a French patrol boat in the Mediterranean, according to

La-

Journal^ A large submarine, of which he was second In command, had just *orprdoed a British steamer between Malta, and Sicily. The German was Waiting to see the vessel sink when two French patrol boats emcrped from the fog and sank the IT-boat. Of the crew of 75 only one officer and four men were rescued by the patrol boats.

While bein* taken to Toulon, the officer appeared 111 at ease. When he thought no one was? looking he tried to throw some papers overboard but a sailor seized his arm. He refused to answer quest ions. but. an examination ,cf the pap«xs explained bis uneasiness.

LaJoumal asks if the man who committed "the most vile, the most barbarous ami the most cowardly act in the annals of war," is merely to be sent to a prison camp.

A dispatch from Toulon last Friday, "Which described the sinking of a German submarine, in the Mediterranean by patrol boats, aided that the mate of the submarine attempted to commit suicide when brmitrht on board the rescue ship. The man appeared to be Insane and was reported to have declared that the lost U-boat had torpedoed the TAisitanta.

The (German admiralty, according to a dispatch from I»ndon, Ausrust 10, has admitted that Lieut. Schwieper was kiHed when aU-boat that he commanded struck a mine in the North sea. The difrpatrh said that his death occurred in September. 1916.

ROTHS HEAR LOT ABOUT WAR (MSN

Also Initiate Harry Hassinger and Joe Bannigan, New Comers la. Town.

Rev. A. R. Brown, Rotarian garden superintendent, grave out some very interesting tacts regarding city gardening in his report submitted to the Rotary club at their weekly luncheon today. During the summer oyer 902 lota were donated of which 796 were given out and many others were donated but not through the office. Six hundred and thirty-nine people called at the office for consultation regarding gardening, this does not include the hundreds of calls over the phone. He visited 3,958 city gardens. There were 4,172 lots under cultivation and 4,412 back yards and 2,000 outside the city limits, making a total of 11,084 in all. Rev. Brown said a conservative estimate placed the value of each garden at 516, making a total of $167,760. The number of gardens increased over last year was about 40 per cent, and over 70 per cent over two years ago.

W. C. Lommel, of Purdue college and head of the State Garden Extension work, took exception to the estimate of the value of the war gardens and placed the amount at $30 to $40. He based his estimate on the amount produced in his own garden which is 33x40.

Dr. Lyman P. Powell, of Hobart college, New York, made a short address. He told of the democratic spirit which existed in the trenches in France where he spent many months as a part of a commission.

Supt. L. N. Heinz, superintendent of the Crawfordsville schools, spoke of the conditions that are bound to exist after the boys return from the war which he said would mean that they would control the city, county and country and there would be no room for men who have not done their part in this great struggle.

Food Conservator Ahlgren was called upon for a five-minute address and in a bri^f way told of the pleasures and sorrow connected with the office which he holds.

Harry Hassinger, who started nineteen years ago as messenger boy of the Western Union and is today the new manager, was one of the baby mem bers and will hereafter answer to the name of Harry.

Joseph Bannigan, of the Commercial Solvent Corporation, would like to have been called "Joe," but owing to the very fast automobile which he operates he was given the name of "Speed." He was the other baby member.

To this statement the objection is urged that it ignores Germany as the author of the war. Another passage to which objection has been made is one which the author quotes the kaiser as saying: "Summoned to the throne of my fathers, I have taken up the reins of government looking to the King of Kings. I have sworn to God to follow the example of my fathers and be to my people a just and firm ruler, to nurture piety and the fear of God, to cherish peace and to be a helper of the poor and oppressed and a faithful guardian of justice."
