, PETROGRAD, Aug. 8. The "Bourse frlazette" complains that the consumption of alcohol Is again increasing alarmingly throughout Russia, In spite of the restrictive measures taken by the government. To prove its assertion the paper publishes statistics obtained from the rniastry of the interior which show that during the first five months of the present year, 7,669,706 gallons of alcohol were sold, against 1,386,281 gallons in the corresponding period of the last year. ) PALLADIUM WANT ADS PAY

BOARD RULES UPON BARNEY'S PROTEST Fate of Barney Lichtenstadt's protest of the Richmond-Hagerstown game played here a week ago will be decided at a meeting of association baseball board this evening. It is not known what action will be taken in the matter. HUBS INVADE RICHMOND. Third of' the series of county title games will be played at Athletic park Sunday afternoon, when the Hagerstown Hubs, Lichtenstadt's club, invade the stamping ground of the Richmond garrison. The ConnersvilleRichmond game announced for next Sunday will be shifted to a later date. LARGE ADDITION Continued from page One be folly to build only for present needs. "Tentative plans provide for the construction of a wing to the present building. Such an addition could be well used right now because the present arrangement for the handling of maternity and operative cases Is far from satisfactory. However, there are no funds available for such an improvement. The hospital must wait until an interested public rallies to its support." Arrangement Unsatisfactory. Hospital attaches declare that the present arrangements for the keeping of maternity cases with other cases Is, to say the least, unfortunate. Prospective mothers who cannot afford private rooms are placed in the women's surgical ward. The nursery where the new-born children are kept is located on the second floor and their cries while not disturbing to their mothers, greatly disturb other cases on the same floor. A maternity department Is declared to be the greatest need of the hospital. This would provide a maternity ward, a number of private rooms and a nursery. Another important need, It is stated, Is a department for convalescent surgical cases, absolutely Isolated from the operating room. With the proposed plans for the enlargement of the hospital a modern heating plant and a nurses' home of Increased size would have to be incorporated. A staff of twenty-two nurses now has to be maintained and there are three young women quartered in each room of the small nurses' home. An enlarged hospital means more nurses and the nursing staff cannot be increased until more rooms are provided for the nurses' home. PRIVATE SCHILLER PLAYS U. S. SONGS IN PRISON ATLANTA, Ga., Aug. 8. Ernest Schiller, the German private who single-handed seized a ship off New Jersey coast, and was sentenced to life imprisonment In the Atlanta federal prison, is adding to his musical repertoire by learning American folk-lore songs. He plays a clarinet in the prison orchestra. "Swanee River," "Old Kentucky Home," "Old Black Joe" and "Tenting Tonight," are some of the songs he has mastered, but his favorite is "Home, Sweet Home." Since his recent daring attempt to escape, Schiller has changed from a bright spirit to a morose, saddened prisoner. The average inhabitant of this earth jprobably uses more than two pounds of provisions a day.

An increase of $4 a week in the average wage of workers in Indiana is reported by the Indiana Industrial Board from September, 1915, until the present time, in a review of the activities of the board for July. Probably the heaviest increases were in Gary, where the munitions and steel plats have given bonuses to employes. During July an increase in the number of accidents also is shown, although many large employers have installed safety devices. There were 3,589 accidents during July, eighteen of which were fatal. One reason assigned for the increase is that many inexperienced workers are now being employed in machine shops. SON ENTERS ARMY FOR SECOND TIME After having caused the army to release his son two months ago because he had misrepresented his age, the father of Forest Eadler, 16, signed the necessary papers for him to join the infantry corps yesterday. WThen the law was passed in June allowing recruiting officers to take boys 18 years of age or over without the consent of their parents, young Eadler went to the recruiting office and representing himself to be 18, was accepted. The young man's persistent pleas finally gained his father's consent.. Two Hagerstown boys, Lloyd E. Brown and Raymond L. Wiggins, entered the infantry service of the army today.

AMADOR'S CONDITION REGARDED AS SERIOUS MEXICO CITY, Mex., Aug. 8. The condition of Juan Amador, sub-secretary for foreign affairs, who has been ill with the fever for some time, is critical. He was originally designated as a member of the commission to the United States, but his health would not permit him to accept the post. THI KBIiiT

SPEEDERS CAUSE RESTLESS NIGHT FOR GOUNCSLMEN

It was as hot as the land of the classical hinges in the Council chamber last evening but that did not prevent council from going to the hotter attic to see ; if the traffic ordinance corpse needed attention. Lawrence Handley kicked the dead one in the ribs by wondering If there was an ordinance penalizing automobilists who do not respect the turtlebacks. Before the other members of council quit the topic, a mighty lusty wake had been held around the old corpse, and the city attorney and the ordinance committee had been instructed to put a few more trimmings around the corpse. Copious Tears Shed. The tears of some of the councilmen when the corpse was shoved into ! the middle of the room were copious. No one believed so much anguish of mind and soul could be turned loose on a hot night. Councilman O'Neal observed that r, pedestrian had no rights at all. He almost was run over twice last Saturday when he joined the throng along Main street's board walk. Councilman White reckoned that some automobiles went across the Doran bridge so fast that they just hit the two ends, and that's all. If all the speed violators were arrested, there would be a drove up at the city hall right now. Horses must walk across that span, but automobiles beat it across at a clip of fifty miles an hour. Goodwin Wails Reply. Chief of Police Goodwin wailed that the police had no ordinance to back up an arrest for a violation of the stop order at Eighth and Main. But Clerk Bescher arrested the chief's weeping by drawing the city code on him and showing that an ordinance hardly two years old covered just the point the chief said was uncovered. That quieted the chief. Says Councilman Howells, "If the police would just clean "up on the autoists for violating the law, they would stop disobeying it." This gave Mayor Robbins a thought to add to the obituary for the corpse. "If we would arrest the autoists who violate the law, the whole town would be in here kicking about it." (Parenthetically, it might be noted that the maor a number of times last night referred to the unkind citizens who dare criticize what his administration does.) Bond Joins Mourners. Since the buck of a corpse was to be handed to City Attorney Bond that official joined the mourners. "WlAt do you want in that ordinance? Can the gentlemen tell me what points to cover? Hasn't the corpse flowers enough now?" Councilman , O'Neal believed the whole corpse ought to be embalmed again in an ordinance that would cover every, topic pertaining the good conduct of automobilists. " When the ordinance committee reports back, it will hand the council a mummy instead of a corpse. HUGHES HITS Continued From Page One. three months from now? My friends, the trouble is that this administration has written such a record that no matter what it says, you do not know whether it will stick to it. "We have had an exhibition during the past three years which, I confess, I filled we with a deep sense of shame, j I have not a particle of militaristic j spirit in my system, but if I am elected president I will see to it that American rights in Mexico are respected." American Rights Abroad. Mr. Hughes assailed the administration's course toward upholding American rights abroad during the European war. "When I say that I am an American citizen," the nominee said, "I ought to 6ay the proudest thing that any man can say in this world. But you can't have that pride if American citizenship is a cheap thing, if it is not worthy of protection this wide world over. There is no man who could successfully present to an American community the platform that an American citizen's rights stop at the coast line and that beyond that American life is to be the prey of any marauder that chooses to take it." Hits Civil Service Raid. The nominee cited the Republican platform'E declaration that 30,000 government' positions had been taken from the operation of the civil service law during the present administration, and declared that "that sort of thing has got to stop." He told of an instance where, he said, "an eminit scientist" the coast and geodetic survey, "a man of very eminent rank," had been "displaced to make room for an excellent stock breeder and vererinary surgeon." The federal trade commission, Mr. Hughes charged, "was fairly emasculated with the law by the men. for the most part, who were appointed to places upon it." RUSSIANS DESTROY HARVEST IN BUKOWINA LEMBERG, Aug. 8 Fugitives arriving here from the Bukowina report that the Russians have completely destroyed the harvest in the districts reconquered by them. All cattle in the province has either been killed or transported across the border to Russia. The whole crown land is a howling wilderness once more. i ...... w .uina mi i 4 d .S Klnm. aiui ir.fiMta i r-...7.-s ... t 1 THE MINX K THE SOUBCI OPVIOUNT M1NEBAL DRUGS j " (jaw r,T , ;

HAWKINS BARN BURNS

; WHITEWATER, Ind., Aug. 8. Lightning caused the destruction of the barn of Oliver Hawkins, south of here, Saturday afternoon. The stock, hay, grain and some of the farm implements were saved. The loss Is partly covered by insurance. STORM CRIPPLES WIRE TRAFFIC OUT OF CITY Long distance telephone wires out of Richmond were not in commission today because of the damage by the heavy storm last night. Before night, however, most of the wires will have been repaired. This morning, neither Cincinnati or Indianapolis could be reached without relaying. New Paris and Greensfork lines were also down. PLEAD GUILTY TO VIOLATING FOOD RULES Pleas of guilty were entered in city court today in three pure food law violations, two being made under protest. John Zwissler, a bakery and restaurant owner, and James Pontos, owner of the Central Chop House, pleaded guilty to selling milk below the butterfat standard. Each was fined $10 and costs. Clem Thistlethwaite, owner of five drug stores, pleaded guilty, through his attorney, to selling ice cream below the butterfat standard, which is eight per cent. This was a second offense on his part and he received a fine of $25 and costs. Zwissler and Thistlethwaite pleaded guilty under protest. Zwissler said he was a victim of circumstances. He said he purchased the milk believing it to be up to standard and that no cream was removed from it. "Tomorrow I may get some more milk under standard and find myself in trouble again. I have no way of determining the amount of butterfat. Under this law a man could be fined out of business. The man who sells the milk to restaurants should not escape prosecution. Technically I am guilty, so I will plead guilty," Zwissler told the court. The milk depot man from whom Zwissler purchased his milk has 'been in trouble before, once being arrested for selling dirty milk to some factory employes. Thistlethwaite's attorney produced bills showing that the creamery company, located in Anderson, from which Thistlethwaite purchased his milk, guaranteed the milk delivered to contain twenty per cent, butterfat. "Thistlethwaite is the victim of the infamy of some one else," said Attorney Holescher. He added that civil and criminal actions would be filed against the Anderson creamery company by Thistlethwaite. Dairy Inspector Clem stated that he had received reports on two tests of ( milk samples received from the Ander-! son company, one showing 20 and the; other 20V2 per cent, butterfat. He j said, however, these samples were ! taken following the filing, of charges against Thistlethwaite. I ROOS CASE DISMISSED The case of Leo Roos against Walter S. Aydelotte, asking for judgment of $98 for money loaned, was dismissed from the circuit court today. Denouncing Medicines Wholesale denunciation of proprietary medicines is no more justifiable than wholesale denunciation of the medical profession. It is no more true that there are reputable physicians who unselfishly devote their lives to an unending struggle with disease than that there are standard remedies which do as good a work; often where the work of the good physician cannot reach. A good example is Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, which has for forty years been alleviating the sufferings of women and curing the ills peculiar to their sex. Adv. rm

ROBBINS LOSES VERBAL BATTLE WITH WEISHAUPT

Mayor Robbins essayed the role of an attorney examining a witness last night, when he tackled Councilman Weishaupt who complained that the electric arc trimmers do not keep the globes clean enough to let the light penetrate through them. "Can you name some specific incident?" asks the mayor. "I knew you were going to ask that very question," popped back Weishaupt. "If you want to come along, I'll take you along many streets and show you how the brilliancy of the lights has been cut down by the dirty globes." The mayor then began a cross-exrim-ination which left Weishaupt master of the situation, and forced the mayor to refer the complaint to the board of works. Resolutions Ordered Drawn. Councilman Walterman introduced a resolution ordering the city clerk to draw up resolutions concerning the death of Mrs. George Knollenberg, wife of the street commissioner. He complained about the light at Fourth and E. Councilman Steinbrink said the catch basin at .South Eighth and F streets was stopped. He requested the board of works to order South Tenth from Main to A street picked and rolled. Councilman Wilkins asked that the pole on the alley between Hunt and Ridge streets be moved. An ordinance requiring cess pools and closets to be connected with sewj ers and providing a penalty of $1 to $25 for each offense for each day wa. advanced to second reading. The failure of the street car company to brick its right of way at Third and West Fifth provoked a kick from Councilman Waidele. The company has put in cement which Waidele says ean be "kicked loose with your shoe." The mayor referred the matter to the president of the board of works with instructions to take it up with the company. Ordinance is Advanced. The proposed concrete alley from C to E between South Tenth and Eleventh street, ordered improved to abate a nuisance, was advanced to second reading, after City Attorney Bond explained that if the board of health declared the condition of the alley a nuisance it was necessary for ! the city to abate the nuisance or run the risk of standing a suit. Councilman Williams wanted to know when the asphalt was to be LAST TIME TONIGHT Wm.

SANITARY FOUNTAINS ORDERED FOR PARK Council rushed to the defense of the abused public last night, when it considered the awful calamity visited upon visitors to Glen Miller park by the removal of drinking cups, pursuant to an order of the state board of health. The board of works was ordered to have a plumber attach extensions to the pipes, making sanitary overflows similar to the ones on the sanitary fountains used in business houses. Councilman Williams believed the state authorities were getting to be a little too cranky. "They send over dirty containers for the milk they want tested, so I guess we've got the right to use tin cups if we want to." "The crazy doctors will soon invent a contraption to purify the air," was the sage commentary of Councilman White. YOUNG BOY HELD FOR MURDER KOKOMO, Ind., Aug. 7. Cecil Young, 17, in jail charged with shooting bis brother-in-law, today planned to fight the charge on the ground that the deed was justifiable.
