OFFICIALS QUIET ON GREY REPLY TO U. S. PROTEST German War Zone Declaration Renders Valueless Many Points Made in Original Communication.

APPREHENSION EXISTS

Washington Hopes Kaiser's Submarines Will Spare American Ships Sailing in Blockade Area. BY LEASED WIRE. WASHINGTON, Feb. 18 Comment on Sir Edward Orey's full reply to tbe American protest against the British interference with neutral shipping today was withheld in official circles. It is known, however, that the strength of the British position is recognized. It also is conceded that many of the contentions that the United States raised in the original note have been rendered valueless by succeeding events such as the German war zone declaration and the complete blockade of all German ports by Great Britain. There is said to be no disposition in Washington now to pursue further the diferences with Great Britain over the difference with Great Britain over States vessels in view of the much more dangerous problems before the United States government. Hide Apprehension. With Germany placing her submarine blockade of England into effect, United States officials hide their real apprehension over the situation under a spirit of confidence that no disaster could possibly follow United States merchant vessels in British water. Germany will not recede from the position she had taken, but it is confidently predicted that neutral ships will be taken care of by the German submarines. This confidence is not based on any interchanges between the United States and the German governments, but only upon the belief that Germany does not desire wilfully to antagonize this nation. It is expected that the test of the German submarine campaign will come within a week. Should Germany not wreak substantial damage to British shipping in this time, the United States authorities will breathe easier.

DOES DECEIT PREVENT DETECTION WHEN GIRLS VIOLATE DISCIPLINE? Members of High School Faculty Believe Members of Gentler Sex Break Rules with Impunity Others Believe Women Submit to Restrictions Without Rebelling Against Them.

Are girls more adept at covering up their infractions of the high school rules than boys? Has the art of deception which is believed to be one of woman's chief weapons begun to de--velop in girls of the high school age? These are questions which teachers of, the high school found themselves facing when discussing the deportment standing of the two sexes. : ' . "More boys are sent to my office for, misbehavior in classes than girls," said Principal F. G. Pickell, who represents the final court of appeal in all questions of discipline. "I have never collected any data to show that boys ard harder to control than girls, but I believe the girls get into trouble with their teachers less often than the boys." Prof. J. H. Thompson admitted that more boys were sent up on the green carpet, but said that it might be possible that the girls were possessed ot more ability to cover up their misbehaviors. He refused to commit himself when asked if this were really the

case, but said he would offer it as a possible solution. - "I do not think that the boys mean to be more unruly than the girls," said Superintendent Giles, "but I believe they are naturally more restless under any kind of constraint, while the girls are more submissive to regulations of any kind." Miss Helen Fox, librarian of the school, and chief assistant to Mr. Pickell, and who is often called upon to arbitrate between pupils and teachers, believes that the girls are more skillful in covering up their unruly actions, and does not give them credit for being better behaved than the boys. "Most of the boys when they get in trouble and are sent to the office, make a clean breast of their offense, and take the consequence," she said. "But the girls try to place the blame on someone else, and evade the issue in that way." Miss Fox also ventured the opinion that the girls were more, apt to try to play upon the sympathy of the teachers.

SPIRITUALIST COMING. The ghost will walk at the Gennett Sunday night not only one but many. Dr. Hume, the noted spiritualistio medium will give a seance at that time for the purpose of demonstrating spirit power in the light. Dr. Hume is said comes to Richmond with indorsement of the Royal Society of England, which tested him for three months in every conceivable manner that human ingenuity could suggest. Dr. Hume, it is said, has igven his seances throughout England, Germany and France and is now making a tour of the United States attracting widespread attention. He courts fullest investigation and conducts his operations and experiments in the strongest light surrounded by a committee. In the seance at the Gennett Sunday night he will give his famous "dematerialization" test which has involved a great deal of comment among scientific men. Questions written and retained by the interrogators will receive full and intelligent answers. Supernatural visions, slate writing. There will be other manifestations of his power and the affair promises to arouse the keenest interest in the subject of spiritualism.

Theatrical Notes Promises of the Press Agent.

MURRAY THEATER. The Murray Theater Stock com pan v will present for the first time in Richmond the great western play "Cheyenne," starting with a matinee this afternoon. The amateur cabaret last night proved to be a big success and afforded plenty of amusiment and comedy for the large audience that was present. On Friday night will be another country store. The country stores are becoming more popular each week. Watch for the big surprise in store for patrons of the Murray theatre next, week which will be announced later. "BRINGING UP FATHER."

(Continued from page 1.) not authorize any rates for the two local plants which would not protect the investors in the $900,000 bonds issued by the Light, Heat it Power company as they had purchased these bonds with the understanding that the commission had recognized the assets of the company to be in excess of a million dollars. "The commission then approved rate schedules which the two plants are now using, with the understanding that these rates should prevail until an appraisement of the two plants had been made. One plant has now been appraised and the appraisement of the other is in progress. Means Plant's Death. "Mr. Bond knows that the commission insists upon rates which will protect the Light, Heat & Power company, because he was present when the commission made the ruling which I have just referred to. Therefore I

do not understand why he thinks there is any possible chance now to influence the commission to issue an or, der permitting the city to derive its entire benefit from the city plant in the shape of the lowest possible rater the plant could afford to charge and still operate, for such an order would also be the death warrant for the competing plant. "Chairman Duncan, of the commission, this week informed members of this committee that in establishing new Joint rates for the two Richmond plants the former policy of protecting the Light, Heat & Power company at the expense of the patrons of the municipal plant would not be pursued., Rates, he said, would be established on the basis of the plant having the lowest valuation and which produced, current at the smallest cost. That means if the Light, Heat & Power has a plant which is not as efficient as the city plant and watered stock figures into its plant valuation, it will have to bring its plant up to the efficiency of its competitor and squeeze the water out of its valuation if it desires to compete with the city on a basis profitable to itself. Under no circumstances, however, would the commission authorize rates which would not net the plant used as a basis for rate making six per cent on its plant investment." Improve Plant. It has been reliably reported that the Light, Heat & Power company will start work within a very short time to increase the efficiency of its electrio plant. It is said another building will be erected by the company and a 1200 k, w. turbine generator and two 609 horsepower boilers installed. The company hopes to close a contract for supplying current to Brookville, Ind., as well as Liberty and New Paris, and it has been reported that it is trying to close contracts for supplying current to Fountain City, Hagerstown and other small towns.

The only sure way to get rid of dandruff is to dissolve it, then you destroy it entirely. To do this, get about four ounces of ordinary liquid arvon; apply it at night when retiring; use enough to moisten the scalp and rub !t in gently with the finger tips. Do this tonight, and by morning most if not all of your dandruff will be gone, and three or four more applications will completely dissolve and entirely destroy, every single sign and trace of it, no matter how much dandruff you may have. You -will find, too, that all itching and digging of the scalp will stop at once, and your hair will be fluffy, lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and look and feel a hundred times better. You can get liquid arvon at any drug store. It is inexpensive and never fails to do the work. adv.
