Allies Blocking the U-Boat Georges Leygues, French minister of marine, made a statement to the naval committee of the Chamber of Deputies that is a complete answer to the bombastic claims of Vice Admiral VonCapelle, the German minister of marine, who is trying to convince his own people that the submarine arm of the German navy is winning the war. For several months word has come from Germany through channels that have not been stopped, indicating that the German people are losing confidence in the submarine. Men like Vice Admiral VonCapelle have not been able to convince them even by making extravagant claims. M. Leygues offers statistics showing that the Germans greatly overstate the actual loss of shipping and that in February, March and April this year, 3,723 French steamers and 788 French sailing vessels passed through the danger zone without a single one being sunk. A few months ago the weekly losses from the submarine in this same danger zone were very heavy. M. Leygues stated moreover that the allies have destroyed more submarins this year than Germany has been able to build. While this is certainly a situation very favorable, M. Leygues makes the timely observation that it does not warrant the allies in slackening efforts to meet the undersea menace. The statistics of M. Leygues indicate that the mastery of the sea is more firmly established in the hands of America and her allies than ever. I

If Germany can not starve England and France and prevent America from sending a big army across the Atlantic this year, she certainly can not win victory by force of arms. With the output of American ships and destroyers of various types increasing steadily Germany's use of the submarine will become more restrictel. Indianapolis Star. Intoxication Decreasing From the Indianapolis News
NTOXICATION might be expected to decrease in In
diana, because the state now has a prohibition law in effect, but in New York, where in addition to citizens
thousands of visitors, who do not drink at home, indulge in intoxicants, one would not naturally look for any great decrease In drinking. However, there is a decrease there. Either that or the drinkers are getting able to carry their liquor better. In 1916 there were 17,078 convictions in New York on charges of intoxication. In 1917 the total number of convictions dropped to 14,12. For the first quarter of last year the number of convictions was 5,408, while for the first quarter of the present year the number had fallen to 2,017. if this ratio is maintained, New York officials bciieve that there will be 7,000 fewer arrests this year on plain drunk charges. ' Various reasons are advanced for the change. One is that the country is thinking in terms of sobriety. Another is that the price of intoxicants has increased until the average man can not afford to get drunk any more. In Boston the price of a glass of beer has been-advanced from 5 cents to 10 cents. As a result of this increase the waiters say that their tips have fallen off and they are demanding higher wages. Figures at the Indianapolis police headquarters show a reduction of 35 percent in the number of arrests for all crimes since the state adopted prohibition. Temperance workers declare that the reduction shows a much higher percentage elsewhere in the state. While excellent results are shown in Indiana by a

(By Hal Pod) The city editor called the cub reporter into his private sanctum, and told birh to meander forth and get a story on a wedding that was to take place that afternoon In a M. E. church. It was to be quite an affair, for bride and groom were well known. So the cub sallied forth upon his mission. Two hours passed and the cub reporter had not yet returned to the office. An hour remained before the deadline, after which time not a line of news could get into that day's issue of the paper. Soon the city editor began to wax Impatient. Fifteen minutes sped by, 30 minutes. 45 minutes, and there remained but 15 more of grace. Just eight minutes before the deadline the cub reporter meandered into the office, only to be summoned gruf(fly into the city editor's private sanctum. "Look here, young man," the C. E. bellowed. "I sent you out to get that story three hours ago and here yoit come back just eight minutes before press time. Sit down at "that typewriter now and get that story out mighty quick or somebody will be out of a job." The cub smiled. "But, my dear sir," said he. "How can I write the story when there isn't any story to write? That's why I didn't come right back." "Isn't any story to write?" thundered the C. E. "What do you mean?. Why isn't there any story to write?" "Well, you see, sir, there wasn't any wedding. The bridegroom never showed up." ' Second call for wheezes on swatting the fly.

"Oh, no, miss; that's just his 'pen' name." During the extended drought down in the land that inspires the ragtime song writers the "Rev'end" George Washington called to supplicate the Lord for rain. Before he opened his sermon the "Rev'end" surveyed his congregation very critically and with increasing dissatisfaction. At last he lamented: "De lack ob faith ob yo' niggers is scandalous and sinful, and makes my heart sore and weary, and plumb afear'd for your souls. Heah we hab gathered to beg de Lord to stop de drought dat is burning up our fields, and to bless us with rain in abundance. And not one, no sah, not one of you disgraceful sinners, had faith enough to bring an umbrella to go home with." The foreman of a construction gang was walking along his section of the railway one day when he came upon one of his men asleep in the shade of a fence. Eyeing the man with a stern smile he said: "Slape on, ye idle spalpeen, slape on! So long as ye elape ye've got a

CIVIL WAR TESTAMENT IS GIVEN NAVAL RECRUIT
A testament which was carried throughout the Civil war will accompany Raymond Ctemple, naval recruit, when he is called into service. The Bible was the property of Arch Bell, who served during the Civil war, and was presented to the grandfather of Stemple after the war. When Stemple enlisted he was given the testament by his mother who had received it from her parents.
Among other things new we have the fightless champion. Boy, page Old Marvtn Hart, please. A staid New York paper, whose opinion is always good, says: "The Republicans will take over the next
