DISTRICT BOARD DENIES APPEALS OF NEWLYWEDS Thirty-five Married Men With Dependent Wives Are Discharged.

Notice of the discharge of thirtyfive men, whose' names had been certified for service to the district board from the Richmond conscription board, was given local officials Thursday by William D. Foulke, the government's attorney, who returned Thursday morning from Ft. Wayne. Most of the cases, where discharge was granted were those of married men who had dependent wives but no children, and whom the local board had certified for service. The action of the district board in granting discharge to married men was the result of the note or President wnson, asking that as far as possible married men be excused from service. Recent Grooms Must Go. "The district board seemed to follow the hint made in the president's order and discharged most of the married men," Foulke said Thursday. "The board exercised some care in the discharge, however, and there was some discrimination against some of the men who were married very recently." No instructions have been given the local board concerning those, men who were denied exemption on account of a dependent wife, but who failed to appeal their cases, although it is probable that some ruling on these men will be reached by Friday. Following is a partial list of the married men certified for service, upon whom some action was taken by the district board, or who failed to appeal their claims: DISCHARGED Richard Mann Race, local board recommendation.

The Dutch General Staff as well as one or two foreign military attaches, are evincing considerable interest in a new armor material devised by an Inventor here. Eroadly stated the principle on which it is basod is that of distributing the pressure of projectiles and explosives as rapidly as possible with tho aid of a particular material specially fitted for that task. The armor consists of a system of double plates with more or less space between them ac cording to the nature of the projectiles it is intended to serve against. Such spaco is filled with a material which is very similar to sand, but is of extremely fine grain and at the Fame time extraordinarily hard. It further possesses a high specific grav. Ity, easily absorbs heat and has a high melting point, so that the separate grains do not change their form even at high temperatures. It Is likewise in a great measure resistant to the oprratlon of acids. Superficially regarded, the device shows considerable similarity to the existing armor-plate system, whereby a filling of sand is introduced between two solid plates with the object of smothering the projectile in its course and thus rendering it innocuous; but demonstrations are said to have clear ly shown a difference. The inventor expects a great deal of his new protective armor as a defense against aerial bomb attacks, believing that it will prove capable of resisting the biggest projectiles. , PAGE ON VACATION LONDON, Sept. 6.-Thomas Nelson Page, tho American ambassador to Italy, passed through here from Sectland today on his way to Rome. Mr. Page said he was on a vacation and that his visit hero had nothing to do with politics.

AUGUST IS BANNER MONTH AT NURSERY August was the banner month at the Day Nursery. Although this month always has the largest attendance, year's attendance has been larger than ever before. During twenty-seven days of August, 474 children were cared for. The largest number cared for in one day was 27 and the smallest 10, with an average of 17.59. There were 51 different children at the nursery, a total of 27 families represented. Plans for a large attendance this winter are being made. It is expected that girls from Garfield school will offer their services in assisting at the Nursery as they did last year. Richmond's Day Nursery is one of the many which are established in larger cities throughout the United States. In a recent report it was found that there are 700 active Day Nurseries in the United States. The movement was started about thirty years ago and has grown very rapidly during the last few years. Older children are cared for during the summer than in the winter. The

DISLOYAL SOLOMS CAPTURED RIGA, SAYS RUSSELL

MINNEAPOLIS, Sept. 6. Charles Edward Russell, member of the American mission to Russia and a delegate to the loyalty conference of the American Alliance for Labor and Democracy, In a formal statement to the convention today declared the interest of the Russian people In the war had been undermined by the activities of certain members of Congress and pacifists organization with pro-German parties. The statement followed the readir.i? of scores cf telegrams from labor leaders in all parts of the country do nouncing pacifists and pledging support to the movement undertaken by the Allies to solidify labor in the successful prosecution of the war. "To Prolong "War." "Riga was captured by United States Senators LaFollette, Gronna and Stone." Mr. Russell asserted. "When the kaiser gives out the declaration of victory he phould give full credit to these three men. They and th people's council and men like the mayor of Chicago are doing more to prolong the war and slaughter American soldiers than all the soldiers of the kaiser. "Every disloyal resolution passed by a combination of German agents "who call themselves a people's council cf America, every time the mayor of Chicago turns that city over to his loyal meetings It Is interpreted to the Russian people as meaning that the United States does not want to fight. It weakens the faith of the Russian people In the United States and encourages the feeling In Russia that the United States is getting out of the war and the thing for Russia to do It to beat us to a separate peace. These are the reasons why I say that Riga was captured by LaFollette, Gronna and Stone, the people's council and the mayor of Chicago. They should be mentioned by the kaiser in his declaration."
