BIG BUSINESS PUTS STOP TO LIQUOR EVIL Anti-Saloon League Speaker Points Out - Modern Efficiency as Big Foe of Strong Drink.
TEMPERANCE GAINS ... European Countries Banish Intoxicants From Army Systems to Make Soldiers Fit Fighting Machines. ATLANTIC CITY. N. J.; July 8: Dr. Louis Albert Banks of Delaware, O-i, declared here today before the convention of the Anti-Saloon League that the difference between the present temperance movement and previous attacks on liquor lies in the fact that the big business men f every community are now dead set against the liquor traffic. The modern cry of "efficiency," he said, is strictly incompatible with the use of strong drink. He traced the world-wide movement against alcohol of the last twelve months as follows: "At the beginning of the war, Lord Kitchener declared that whatever else was sent to English soldiers there would not be a drop of strong drink. If he could have organized the English working people on the same basis, England would have been in an infinitely happier condition today, and we would not have Lloyd George uttering his desperate cry that England is fighting three enemies Germany, Austria and drink and that 'drink Is the worst of the lot,' an which our own Mr. Bryan very shrewdly comments that England has found out that the aeroplane that drops bombs from above and the submarine that shoots torpedoes from beneath, bad as they are not nearly so dangerous as the schooners that slide across their own English bars. It is the opinion of the leading public men of England that she must come shortly to absolute prohibition, and in that she is only following the example of other nations. Blunder of France. "France has been breeding a peculiarly idiotic race of drunkards with that strange drink of hers absinthe for many years. Her medical and scientific people have thundered against it, but nothing practical was accomplished until they came up against the wall of the German army, and had to have men with steady nerves, who could see straight, and shoot straight or the nation must die. Then it only took a few hours for the government to abolish that drink for the war. Since then the French congress has abolished it forever, and are prohibiting all kinds of intoxicating drinks for the rest of the war. "Some of you remember how only a few years ago it was the world sensation for many days when the Kaiser went dry. He got scared about the drunkenness of his officers in the army, and became a teetotaler even from beer. He preached total abstinence from one end of Germany to the other. When the war broke out they soon locked up all their distilleries and cut down their breweries to half strength in their beer. Since then one thing after another has been eliminated until that half strength beer is all there is left. Russia in Lead. "But Russia leads the procession. Never since that other Czar 60 years ago, set 50,000,000 of serfs free with one ukase, has there been anything to compare with the wor kof the present Czar in the redemption of Russia from strong drink. When the Czar closed every saloon in the empire at the beginning of the mobilization of troops, it was thought by himself and by everybody else to be only a temporary expedient. But a wonderful thing happened. The closing order was made permanent." 1,587 PERSONS OWN MOTORS IN COUNTY State automobile license returns show that during the year ending July 1 there was a twenty-four per cent increase in the number of automobiles in Wayne county over the number for the year "ending July 1, 1914. This is one per cent more than the total increase for the state. . In Indiana on July 1, this year, there were over 81,000 cars. On the same date last year there were over 66,000 cars. In Wayne county July 1, this year, there were 1,587 cars, and on the same date last year there were 1,203 cars. There are only eight other counties in the state which have more cars than are owned in Wayne. It is estimated that 60 per cent of the cars in Wayne county are- owned by Richmond people, which would indicate that there are now in Richmond approximately 950 automobiles, or about one car to about every twentysix residents of the city, estimating Richmond's population at 25,000. Fixing the average investment in cars owned by Wayne county people at $700 the total investment in machines on July 1 would be fl,110,900. And with the same average investment as a basis it would indicate that during the year ending July 1 Wayne county people spent $268,800 on automobiles. APPRAISE GOLD FARM Another appraisement of the Thornburg "gold farm" near Economy was petitioned for today by the Dickinson Trust company, as commissioner. The trust company declared that the appraisements, $8,400 for one piece and $4,800 for another piece of land is excessive and no bids equal to twothirds of the appraised valuation could be secured.
Asquith Loses Favor . As Prime Minister
I I i z&ti 1 t; i- - I
The popularity of Premier Asquith is steadily diminishing, and it is probable that if the war were to end tomorrow the prime minister's career could be reckoned in weeks rather than months. His assurance, constantly repeated, that all was going well at the front has angered Englishmen. Especially are they obscenced over his denials that there was a shortage of high explosive shells, which came at the time the lives of thousands of young Englishmen were being sacrificed in Flanders to this very short-sightedness on the part of some one or other. While Asquith's friends are diminishing, the following of Lloyd-George is increasing. On several occasions the two brilliant leaders have directly contradicted each other in speeches. The chancellor of the exchequer, now minister of munitions, was crying aloud for the workmen of Britain 10" produce more shells at the very time the premier was denying that any 1 reason for trepedation on the subject of shells existed.
LORD MERSEY DENOUNCES DESTRUCTION OF FALABA Hands Down Verdict that Submarine Torpedoed Boat Without Warning and Crew Made Little Effort To Save Passengers.
LONDON", July 8. A verdict holding that the British liner Falaba was sunk without warning in March, and that the failure of the . German submarine which destroyed the steamer to afford the passengers an opportunity to take to the boats, was responsible for the heavy loss of life, was handed down at Westminster today by Lord Mersey, who presided at the investigation. Leon C. Thresher, an American, perished when the Falaba was sunk, and his death formed part of the basis for the protest made by President Wilson against the German submarine policy. "It is our province to decide whether the submarine was within its right in CHRISTIAN ENDEAVOR CONVENTION HEARS LIQUOR DENOUNCED CHICAGO, July 8 "Drinkers of the cheapest grade of booze to the most expensive wine that ever bubbled in thin glass are headed back to hell," according to the message delivered to the World's Christian Endeavor convention today by Rev. Ira. Landrith of Nashville, Tenn. Thousands of Endeavor delegates from all parts of the world oheered-the speaker as he launched into a heated speech against liquor. His address marked the swinging of the convention into its full stride. Sectional and state meetings in various churches and hotels occupied most of the day's session and the mass meeting of the convention did mot get under way until this afternoon. Politicians are beginning to realize that the saloon must go, declared Dr. Landrith. The entire trend of public opinion is in favor of the elimination of the liquor traffic. Dr. Landrith Is one of the flying squadron that has been touring the country in the interest of prohibition for the last year. In the Falkland Islands there are five men to every woman.

sinking the Falaba," said Lord Mersey, in his decision, "but she was bound to afford the men and women aboard an opportunity of getting into the boats. ' The submarine did riot do so, however. "The ship was unarmed and carried no means of defense of offense. The boats and lifesaving apparatus were in good order. The captain, officers and crew were competent and efficient. "The cargo was an ordinary one. It included thirteen tons of cartridges and gunpowder for the government's use in West Africa. This was no more than usually carried in times of peace."

TIIA17 REMJS CALM IN FACE OF QUESTIONS NEW YORK, July 8. After two and a half hours of cross examination at the hands of Deputy Attorney General Cook today Harrk K. Thaw at luncheon recess of court was as fresh as a daisy, calm, unexcited and amiable. He failed to lose his temper at any point and answered all questions calmly and concisely except In one or two instances when he refused point blank to answer at all. The examination took place before a court room crowded to its capacity, mostly by women. Thaw will probably be on the stand all of today and tonight's session. , Thaw mentioned his wife only onee during the morning and then he betrayed no feeling. He referred to her as ."Evelyn." His reference to his estranged wife who likely will appear under arrest tomorrow to testify against him came when he was asked about Dr. Allen McLain Hamilton, an alienist once in Thaw's employ. "He betrayed all the information he got from me and Evelyn." he said. Asked About Alienists. "Did you read Dr. Hamilton's report that you were in his opinion insane at the time of your second trial." Cook "No." replied Thaw.

Most soaps and prepared shampoos contain too much alkali, which is very injurious, as it dries the scalp and makes the hair brittle. The best thing to use is Just plain mulsified cocoanut oil. for this is pure and entirely greaseless. It's very cheap and beats soaps or anything else all to pieces. You can get this at any drug store, and a few ounces will last the whole family for months. Simply moisten the hair with water and rub it in, about a tea-, spoonful is all that is required. It makes an abundance of rich, creamy lather, cleanses thoroughly, and rinses out easily. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and Is soft,- fresh looking, bright, fluffy, wavy and easy to handle. Besides, it loosens and takes out every par. tide of dust, dirt and dandruff. LYNN, FOUNTAIN CITY, and RICHMOND AUTO LINE Headquarters Knollenberg's Annex. Owned and Operated by J. H.
