CLEVELAND EX-MAYOR CHOSEN WAR HEAD

N. D. Baker Appointed Secretary of War to Succeed Garrison —Senate to Act Tuesday. Washington, March 6.—Newton D. Baker, former mayor of Cleveland, has been selected by President Wilson for secretary of war. His nomination will go to the senate Tuesday and administration leaders expect quick confirmation, so the new secretary may take active charge of the war department's plans for army increases and reorganization. Mr. Baker is a lawyer, and, as a leader among Ohio democrats, has been a warm supporter of the Wilson policies since the pre-convention campaign in 1912. An offer of the war secretaryship was made to Mr. Baker by telegraph several days ago after the president had spent more than three weeks carefully going over a long list of those suggested to succeed Secretary Garrison. Mr. Baker accepted and upon being notified today that he would be nominated at once telegraphed that he would be in Washington Thursday. Mr. Baker, who is forty-four, will be the youngest member 'of President Wilson’s cabinet by more than five years. The president will not select an assistant of war to succeed Henry Breckinridge until he has conferred with Mr. Baker Thursday.

“CHICKEN” FLOTILLA BLOCKADED AT PORT

Fair Craft Armed With Powder Piiffs and Peroxide Turrets Must Take New Taek. Philadelphia, March 6.—Saucy feminine craft, decked in war paint, that bear down on the Jack Tars at the League IsJand navy yard with the avowed intention of taking the jolly mian-o’-war’s-men prisoners, will have to veer away and tack anew, for Lieutenant-Commander L. P- Davis has declared war against this type of cruiser, known as the “chicken” flotilla. ; , Not satisfied with abolishing spoon- I ing on the gundecks and other forms of love ashore for the fellow who has been afloat, this enemy of Cupid has raised an edict against other types, which went into farce recently. Craft that come to League Island stripped for action with lipsticks and vanity bags, powder puffs and peroxide turrets will be repelled at the gate. Commander Davis has issued orders to the sergeants and their corps of guards to look every girl over that tries to get in. If she shows cheeks that have been toudhed with the carmine of the rouge chamois, if her eyes show where the black pencil has supplied an aid that nature denied, out they go. “Chickens” are taiboo, and, while the naval city .is open for inspection of the fair ones, the one whose real complexion is submerged will not get a berth inside the gates.

Considerable complaint. has been made over the damage to the roads resulting from heavy autos using the roads while the frost is coming, from the ground. This is especially true of the heavy oil trucks, the damage done by them being almost beyond repair. It was thought that they did not come under the heavy hauling law. At the request of the commissioners, County Attorney Williams has interpreted the law and he has held that autos come under the law as well as wagons and other vehicles, the combined weight of the auto and load beng taken as the basis. The limit of weight is 3,800 pounds, and anyone found using the roads with a load overthat weight while the frost - is coming from the ground will be prosecuted. To he entitled to that heavy a load the tires must be a,t least 5 inches.

KOKOMO MAN SAYS TANLAC FITS CASE . I J. F. Nutter Declares He 1 Feels Stronger than He Has for Years * ' i •» Kokomo, Ind., March 6, 1916. —J. F. Nutter, a well known glass worker, who lives at 749 South Union street, Kokomo, recently said, regarding Tan lac, the Master Medicine; Constipation and stomach trouble caused me great annoyance and pain for months. I suffered intensely with indigestion, had frequent severe headaches, and was very nervous. I felt nauseated most of the time and had a very poor appetite. Almost everything I ate produced nausea. I was extremely restless at night owing to my nerves being unstrung, and I got very little sleep. “Tanlac appealed to me because I knew of the good it was doing others. I decided that a medicine that was doing so much good for others ought to help me. Since taking Tanlac I sleep better than I have for years, and the headaches have disappeared. My nerves also are in good condition now, and the stomach trouble has been relieved wonderfully. Tanlac just fits my case. I feel better and stronger than I have for years.” Thousands of Indiana people are now deriving benefit irom Tanlac. It is especially beneficial for stomach, liver and kidney troubles, rheumatism, loss of appetite, catarrhal . troubles and the like. Tanlac is now sold exclusively in Rensgelaer at Larsh & Hopkins' drug store. ' . ■ -‘***»,j '
