JullV OLD SALT IS
The lin«s '".Hail. Hail, the Ceng's All Her®," whlcb enticed Eugene R. Hees, storekeep«c. tirat ciass, U. S. N, to vi^it his home town, proved a delusion And a frrvare in his case as far as seeing his old comrades axid associates. Mr. Hose, wiUi Mm. Hess, arrived in Terr* Haute Wednesday noon anticipating a visit with his brother, Oliver Hess, and iamily as well as old acquaintances. only to find that many of them had died or moved away. Mr. Ilees is what might be termed a "charter member" erf the navy. He enlisted la October 2. IHT9, with twenty Others from Terra Haste, who were rounded op by CoL 111 chard Thompson while serving as secretary of the saw?. To day, he wears gold stripes. 4rMch he mirthfully designates as "Btripoa of honor" for good conduct and not a tfemlnh against his coadoct •r serrJoe in tbs navy,
Kr. Be.« 1m been offered aa offtcer*» sntfoon as ensign, which booor fce has refused on account at an averHi» to Urine np to the dignity imposed thereby. Mr. Hens la a "Jolly good fellow" aad his greatest deUgM la to mingle with the boys and serve aa «ntnrtainer. He stngs and dances to a manner which certainly Igoea over" with the "boys" and has proved magnet to draw nren Into enlistment ^t v*rinu« times daring his service.
Tfc is said, hnwovirr, that a still higher honor is Jusl about to be conferred upon Mr. Hess, which he will accept. KoTlowtog his enlistment In '79 he was honorably discharged 1n April of '82. He re-enlisted at the beginning of the Spanish-American war. and served until It.* elrae. He has been doing recruiting duty for two years and re-en-listed into active nervlr* in .January of last year. Between times he has made his home in Kansas City, and at present Is detailed after a 20 days' furlough to report, for duty as assistant recruiting officer at Kansas City on Monday Of thig wreTc.
At Big Family Reunion.
With Mrs. Hess he has been in attendance of the Hess family reunion held recently at Oakland park, Bethlehem, Pa., where 400 of thai family gathered for an annual meeting. While in New York, he witnessed the performance of Maude Hosford. a former Terre Haute actress, who is at the age of fifty starring at one of the larger theatnjs in New York City. Mr. Hess Snd Mips Hosford wero school mates. Mr. Hess declares that he has been in country and every clime, and Jin* Rh"Mirjeied and elhowed every reee. He wears a cap which represents an innovation in hats and caps, thirty•erven years apj, Mr Hens made and *mbroid»Ted this cap, which boasts a •tar-like decoration in black on the t»Ioe felt, along with his unifoi-m which he wore at that time, y«t today it is •stylish" in the navy. This cap has a S*rlee of hands bearing unique history. One bearing the name "Trenton." Immed for the ship which was sunk On a reerf at Pokapnla. one of the Islands of Samoa while he was a member of the crew. Mr. Hess.still wears this hand tiikVt rover of his latter day for sentiment sake.
Another historical feature, at least to Mtr. Hess, U the fnet that while at TPyre*. Greece, Queen Olga and the king «T Oreoee arammoned him that they tulgjit examine the embroidery work 4V»ne by him on hie cap's crown. While •he qut*m was looking, the cap blew Into tho sea to her distress and while quote Mr. Ho«s" the hat only re«*»r«d a good ducking without' any "Iterai to it. t-he next day sent htm a hwgo cluster of flowers a« a token of her regret.
Mr-
Hess spoke tenderly of CrvT.
Thompson, saying that while none of *1» other hoys from Terre Haute stuck *»the navy, it was Mr. Thompson's •wonrag-ement and enthu«iasm which had kept hhn fliere. ^Hshas been across seats twice and «rpw*s to go again soon. He has been Wtationed at the Great Lakes training Htation and reports that the outgoing «*»mpany at present is the new cora|»any added recently in honor of fomWiodore Rtep»»en B. T.nee, deceased Heaa la the son of Francis J. Hess dealer in implements on South Fourth street in the early seventies and eightlee'. Mr. Hess died seven years ago after hsmoving to California.

The Married Life

And it war the men who had the money who sponged off him most. The more prosperous, tJhe' less apt tney were to do their part.
The crowd was thinning now. Half the tabta« were vacant, when Helen to forestall a third order murmured a reminding: "Deer, what time is it—It must be
"Oh, It's early yet." Then glancing at Ms wsttoh: "Half-past 12! 5 Jove, didn't know it was near that."
The waiter, his other tables now vacated. was hovering about expectantly. At Warren's signal he placed the check face down at his elbow.
Mr. Hewitt, wh was ax&ntiatf&g n the boos fishing along the Rideau. did not seem to see the check as Warren corered it wfth a bill. "Tee, there's no end of Osqogos all through these lakes. Oreat sport casting about the stumps," enthused Warren. "Haven't been up there since I was in college—but I'd like to get another whack at m."
Everyone rose as the orchestra now swung into "The Star Spangled Banner,'* tvhile a search-light was thrown on a breeze-fluttering flag.
The final notes of the national anthem. and they made their way out through the latticed archway and down the shrub-linned corridor to the elevators. "Too hot for the subway—let's have a taxi," suggested Mr. Hewitt when they came out through the hotel lobby into the heated street. "Here's one," Warren beckoned to a waiting cab. "Why not go np on the buss?" proposed Helen fearing Warren would also have to pay for the taxL "Too crowded. Come on, we'll drive through the park.*
At any other time Helen would have enjoyed the d^ive through the nightscented park. But now her mind was riveted on the fact that they lived a few blocks beyond the Hewitts. That would mean that the Hewitts would get out first, leaving them to drive on and pay the fare. "Tired, Mrs. Curtis?" asked Mr. Hewitt, solicitously. "You're so quiet." "No, I'm not at all tired," with a curt frigidity which she hoped he would notice and properly interpret.
The grinding of brakes and the cab passed before a pretentious apartment.
TO SELL LIBERTY BONDS
Newspaper Publicity Will Be Defended Upon Largely for Success of Loan Campaign.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 5.—Newspaper display advertising will be relied on more than ever to sell bonds during the fourth Liberty Loan campaign which opens Sept. 28. In full page and part page advertisements designed by trained advertising men, the story of Liberty Bonds will be borne home to newspaper readers. The campaign will be one to advertise the war as much as to sell bonds.
Frank H. Wilson, publicity director for the loan, today announced his plans for newspaper advertising.
Designs and copy ftr the ads already have been prepared and will be sup plied free in the form of newspaper mats to daily or weekly publications. The government will not pay newspapers for the publication but local committees will canvass merchants ami business interests in each community to pay for the i^paoe.
Probably the first of the standard ads to appear wiil be the full page autographed copy of President Wilson's appeal to the American people to support the loan to be published on Sept. 28, the opening day. The headlines of the ads and others are: "Knemy is weakening. The supreme moments of our struggle with Germany have now come,'' by Secretary Baker "Dollars that fight," by Senator Lodge. "The army and navy wm dig th Huns' graves—but we must furnish th« spade," by Billy Sunday. "Money makes the ship go," by Charles M. Schwab. "W hat do yon mean 'afford T" by George Ade.
Rudyard Kipling, Samuel Gompers, Wilbur D. Nesbitt, Dr. Frank Crane and George M. Cohan are among those who have written copy for the ads.
Late Wire Flasher
WASHINGTON Emergency agricultural appropriation bill with its rider for national prohibition from next July 1 ufitil the American armies are demobilized, passed by senate without roll call.
WASHINGTON—United Fruit Co.'s steamer Almirante sunk in collision with United States supply ship Hisco with loss of five lives nine miles southeast of Atlantic City lighthouse.

Helen tried to crush down her increasing animosity toward Mr. Hewitt aa Warren ordered another round. Why let it spoil her evening? If only she eomlcl learn not to care when Warren paW the checks. That was hie pie&ytire. never noticed how almost everyaoo took advantage of his hosrttab»« geoerosity.
Warren
"I'm going on to Washington Wednesday,'' announced Mr. Hewitt, as they got out. "We'll have to get together some evening the week after." "Fine!" agreed Warren. "Well go out to Long Beach for dinner."
A moment later they were speeding on alone. "Nice party," Warren leaned hack his feet on the seat opposite. "Glad we ran into them."
Helen made no comment but her silence was eloquent of her disapproval.
Several blocks further on and they drew up before the portal lights of their own doorway. While Warren paid the driver, Helen's anxious glance read the meter—$2.60! "I tell ycu what," he yawned, as they left the elevator and entered the stifling heat of their closed, darkened apartment. "We won't go to Long Beach—we'll take them out to that roexihouse near Sheepshead Bay. Best shore dinner anywhere around—they'd enjoy that."
All Helenls resolutions to repress any comments on the one-sided expenditures of the evening were now forgotten In a rush of hot rebellion. With unnecessary vigor she flung up the windows, and t&cn turned with fierce vehenaonce. "Why should you take them to dinner? Why should you take them anywhere? Youll have to pay all the hills—as you paid them tonight. That taxi—oh, that waa the boldest J.hlng! For him to order a taxi—and let you pay for it! No wonder they can go to the Costmore almost every night! Did you hear her say that? Well, we could too—if we'd sponge on all our friends." "Are you all through?" there was a grim note in his voice. "Why—what do you mean?" "When you're through raving about a few dollars—T'll hand you some cold facts. Remember that Wagner case I had this spring—where I got a 11,500 fee? Well, Hewitt is Wagner's brother-in-law—brought him into the office and introduced him. Made It a point to give me that case. Now. how about it? Want him to halve up on a few drinks "But Warren, I didn't know! How could 1 "That's Just it," he exploded. "You never know—but you throw a fit—turn half a dozen back somersaults every time 1 spend a few cents! Great guns, the men 1 know aren't beats. Because they don't divide up on every 6-cent piece, doesn't mean they tlon't hold up their end. Huh," with intense scorn, "s'pose you'd want 'em to split on a postage stamp!"
To Be Continued Monday.
VICE SQUAD GATHERS THEM IN ON FRIDAY
Day Is TTnluckj for Some-- Police Believe They Were deceived.
A rush over the top, minus the usual garb generally worn by the masculine gender when traveling from one spot! to another, was brought into the limelight of publicity Friday afternoon in City Court, much to the embarrassment of Mayor Charles R. Hunter's morals and vice squad, when the case of Anna McReynolds, charged with operating a house of ill fame was called.
Edward Smith, colored, and Get* Andrews, likewise colored, who wore arrested in the McReynolds house on North First street by the morals Fquad a few night ago on charges of prostitution and associating respectively, were placed upon the witness stand as state witnesses against the McReynolds woman, after the patrolmen had been called and testified that another colored man and another colored girl had been found in the bouse but not arrested because they were both asleep in different rooms at the time oi' the raid.
The Andrews gfrl loosened her tongue and said that she and Smith had rented a room for immoral purposes and that another couple whom she did not know were In the room next to them. When the police arrived she said the man in the next room crawled over a partition between the two rooms, minus his trousers, and that the girl becoming excited put them beneath the mattress on the bed, and then crawled in and presented to be asleep, while the man pulled the same stunt in the recently vacated room beyond the partition. The morals squad appeared somewhat chagrined to learn that the old "possum" trick had been pulled upon them.
The McReynolds woman was fined SoO and cost and given a 30 day woman prison sentence, when found guilty by Judge Paul R, Shafer. The cases against Smith and the Andrews girl were continued so as to have them as witnesses when the case which was appealed is called in Circuit Court
