Such a pile of shells as shown in photo does not last long these days during the British offensive in the West ; It is not easy work piling up these weighty death-dealing devices or is it easy unpiling them again, but the smiles on the faces of the Tommies show that they are pleased at the prospect.

TOSS OF COIN WINS FAIR BRIDE FOR LUCKY TRAVELING SALESMAN

There was a merry dinner party in progress at a Cincinnati hotel last Saturday evening and Miss Opal Pyle and Clarence Randall, both of Richmond, sitting side-by-side, became greatly interested in each other, so much so, in fact, that the other members of the party suggested that they "take a trip across the river to Covington" and visit a marriage squire. "Dare you to tosa a coin to see whether you get married heads you do, tails you don't," someone shouted at the young couple. Randall produced a coin and looked inquiringly at Miss Pyle. It is reported that Miss Pyle flushed a little, then nodded her head affirmatively. The coin was flipped and came down with the head up. Always Had Good Luck "I always was lucky," remarked Randall. The dinner party was abruptly adjourned: there was a "trip across the river" and a few minutes later Randall and Miss Pyle were pronounced man and wife by a squire. The dinner guests then escorted Mr. and Mrs. Randall back to the Cincinnati hotel and there a midnight wedding supper was served. Sunday Mrs. Pyle who has been working in Dayton recently, visited her mother, Mrs. Eliza J. Gist, 8 South Tenth street, this city, but she made no mention of her marriage to Randall. When Mrs. Gist was in-

Women Writes Letters Some time ago the Congressional Vnion, a woman suffrage organization, wrote letters to all of the various candidates for United States Senator and Congressmen in the state, asking them to define their position with reference to the proposed Susan B. Anthony amendment to the Federal constitution for equal suffrage throughout the nation. The Congressional Union favors this amendment and universal suffrage, and it is opposed to the proposition to permit the suffrage question to be settled by the separate states. It wants the whole thing or nothing. It was anticipated when the letters were sent out that they would cause tome squirming and side-stepping on the part of some of the candidates and much Interest has been manifested in the answers that might come in. A few answers have been received by th Congressional Union, but a majority of the candidates have not yet answered the letters. Senators John W. Kern and Thomas Taggart have not answered. Harry S. New said that he was not yet ready to make a statement on the subject. James E. Watson answered that he stands on the Republican national platform on this question, as on all other questions covered by that document.

Contributed $30,000. In the first place, he was the chairman of the Democratic finance committee in the campaign of 1912. According to the report furnished by the Democratic national committe, as reported in the Congressional Record of Aug. 10. 1916 (see Page 14394), he contributed to the McCombs prenomlnation fund to secure the nomination of Mr. Wilson the sum of $20,000, and then to the general fund for Mr. Wilson's election the further sum of $10,000 or $30,000 in all. Penfield Makes Gift. The embassy at Vienna appears to

have bestowed upon another extensive contributor to Mr. Wilson's campaign fund. Fred C. Penfield was the happy recipient and he had contributed, according to the same authority, to the McCoombs prenomination fund $12,000 and to the fund for Mr. Wilson's election $12,000, being $22,000 in all. The embassy to Germany, the most important of all our foreign posts, except England, was bestowed upon James W. Gerard, who had contributed, according to the same authority, $13,500 to the Democratic campaign fund. Mr. Gerard, like Mr. Morgenthau, was absolutely without diplomatic experience. Not a single element of diplomatic qualification is his career. He was even earlier than Mr. Morganthau in securing his place, for he was appointed ambassador to Germany in July, 1913. The gist of the matter was that the President had appointed a man without experience who had contributed $13,500 to the campaign fund. Many Other Examples. Many more cases could be cited. William F. McMcCoombs contributed $11,000 to the prenomination fund and is offered the ambassadorship to France. Charles R. Crane contributed $50,000 for political purposes and is offered, but declines, the ambassadorship to Russia. Another man contributed $5,000 and is made minister to Uruguay. Of twenty-two members in the diplomatic service displaced to make room for others, hardly any of the new incumbents had had any experience.

Clark Sustains Point. "Representative Adamson made a point of order against the Sterling amendment, on the ground that 'it was not germane.' Speaker Clark sustained the point, of order. The house then f-ustained the Speaker. Prior to the Speaker's ruling Representative Mann, of Illinois, the Republican leader, had made a plea for the Sterling amendment," contending it was clearly in order, in that it carried out some of the recommendations made by the president, recommendations which Mr. Adamson's committee had ignored. This is the ruling of Speaker Clark, found on Page 15877 of the Congressional Record of September 1, 1916: "The Speaker: 'The chair is ready to rule. The gentleman from Illinois (Mr. Mann) suggests that the presi-' dent made six representations in his message. That is .true. Of course, the chair, like every one else, has a great aeal of respect for the recommendations made by the President of the United States, but the chair is surely not expected to rule on the six propositions submitted by the president in that message. It might take six bills, it might take four, or it might take three. In the bill before the house there are two of the recommendations that the president made and both of them affect the question of wages and do not affect anything else. Critically considered, the speaker might have cut the message up and referred various parts of it to various committees, but he did not choose to do that. It was a hurried proceeding all around The chair does not think the

motion of the gentleman from Illinois (Mr. Sterling) is germane, and therefore sustains the point of order made by the gentleman from Georgia (Mr. Adamson).' Sustained by Vote of 204 to 87. "Mr. Mann appealed, from the ruling of the chair, and the speaker's ruling was sustained by the vote of 204 to 87. "Yet President Wilson and other Democratic speakers now set up the contention that the Adamson law is what its title seeks to convey an eight-hour law. The president even goes further, and asserts that the Adamson law is founded on the eighthour principle. "President Wilson and Speaker Clark are not in accord.

"President Wilson and the house of representatives are not in accord. "Speaker Champ Clark, before the Adamson law became a campaign issue, made a ruling that is in strict accord with what Mr. Hughes now contends. "This is the same Champ Clark who, after reading the returns from the Maine election, frankly said: 'We got a durn good licking.' The one thing Champ Clark does not do is to try to disprove a self-evident fact."

HERE ARE SURE WAYS TO TEST TRUE LOVE

' Frolics and all kinds of mad gaieties are being planned by Richmond's young set for Tuesday, October 31, Halloween. . That ghosts stalk and supernatural powers rule on this night is the ancient superstition ' used to excuse all the pranks which are played. Masks, costumes, party games, unique candies, horns, cauldrons and all things which go with witches have made their appearances in windows of Main street business houses. There is always a big time on Main street on the night of this queer festival. But the day is not noted for this so much as it is a time when true love can be tested. All love tests are sure to prove true, they say, if tried before midnight, October 31. Here are some tests which have been tried and tested: Take three saucers. In the first put clear water, in the second soapy water and leave the third empty. Lead a blind folded maiden or man to make the test. A forefinger dipped into the clear water shows that a young and handsome bride or groom is on the way; a finger dipped into the soapy water foretells marriage to a widow or widower; but if the finger lands in the empty dish, single blessedness is sure to follow. Pare an apple round and round, whirl the peeling three times round your head, then throw it behind you, repeating: - ' "By this magic paring I wish to discover the first letter of the name of my true lover."

The turn and behold the twisted initial. Go blindfolded up to a table where there are vegetables of all seasons. If you draw celery, your future husband or wife will be tall and slim. If you draw cabbage you will have no difficulty in coming to the right conclusion.

court house at 7 o'clock. Chairman Bossert has already been notified that delegations from Henry, Union, Franklin, Rush and Fayette counties will participate in this parade. There will be at least five hundred people in the Union county delegation, Mr. Bossert says. Clifford Price, former Progressive county chairman, has been appointed chairman of the parade committee. He is going to arrange for every ward and township in Wayne county to be represented in the parade.

You Can't Brush Or Wash Out Dandruff

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 Hquid arvon; apply it at night when retiring; use enough to moisten the scalp and rub it 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 wil 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.

HENRI ROCHETTE

EMBEZZLER HELD PARIS. Oct. 18. After a search that extended to erery quarter of the globe Henri Rochette, charged with the embeezlement of nearly $40,000.000 has been arrested. News of the arrest was given out by the police today. Rochette was founder of the FrancoSpanish bank and various other financial organizations in France. His operations led to a French political scandal and indirectly to the murder of Gaston Calmette. editor of Le Figaro, by Mme. Calllaux. The career of Rochette has been both romantic and spectacular. He began life as a brush boy in a barber shop. Later he worked as a waiter in a cheap restaurant. Inheriting $1,000 he came to Paris and by his daring operations amassed a fortune. The Franco-Spanish bank of which he was the head had sixty branches in Europe and Latin America.

Exploiters Wanted Intervention I have no doubt that the disturbances in Mexico during the last few years have been due, in a greater or less degree, to an effort on the part of ambitious, cunning men to force intervention and possibly annexation to the United States. The exploiters of public utilities and of the mineral and agricultural resources of our neighbor have undoubtedly thought that they would gain much if they could force intervention by the United States. There are soldiers of fortune in Mexico who would undoubtedly welcome such a contingency. Sensationalists are adding to the confusion of the situation and making more difficult the solution of the problem. Intervention in Mexico is of course, not a matter to be considered lightly ; for intervention means war, and war means the destruction of human lives and the expenditure of hundreds of millions of dollars. Uphold Wilson's Hands It means, furthermore, the responsibility of the government of 20,000,000 people for an indefinite period: We are now engaged in governing 10,000,000 aliens as the result of the Spanish-American war a war which could very probably have been averted if we could have exercised a little more patience, patriotism and selfrestraint. If our speculators in Mexico suffer pecuniary loss as the result of recurring revolutions, that is a matter for further consideration,when stable government and

peace are fully established in that country. It is not warrant for shedding the blood of Americans. To sacrifice the life of one soldier for all of the dollars investors or speculators have ventured in Mexico would be the supremest criminal folly, without a deliberate affront on the part of the Mexican government, whether it exists de jure or de facto, is no good ground on which we would be justified in sending our armies beyond the Rio Grande. President Wilson is dealing with it (the situation) as best he can. We may not entirely agree that his course is better than that of his distinguished predecessor, nevertheless, we should endeavor to uphold his hands. There should be no difference of opinion as to that. By doing so we shall make his task a comparatively easy one. President a Safe Guide It is not an hour for either little politics or sensational journalism. The clamor of the jingoes should not be allowed to drown the voice of rational, deliberate statesmanship. It is a pretty safe rule, when we .come to deal with grave international problems, to put our faith in the President of the United States and follow Where he may lead. He speaks for the country when we come to deal with international affairs. The President of the United States is a safer guide than sensationalists and the soldiers of fortune who come to the surface whenever international controversies arise.
