GOTTIN'S GRUDGE AGAINST FRENCH PREMIER AIRED Would-be Murderer. Resented Act in Stopping Radicals Meeting During War. PARIS, April IS. The chief grievance which Cottln, the would-be aasasin of Premier Clemenceau, who was sentenced to death, appeared to have against the latter, according to the testimony given by the prisoner at his court-martial, la that Clemenceau stopped discontent meeting of workmen In the national capital when the Germans were within 60 miles of Parla. The testimony given by the prisoner indicated a mind unbalanced by the teachings of extreme radicalism. Cottin, thin and extremely pale, answered questions in a piping voice, and seemed to exult in the attention which he was attracting. "Reference to his library upon which he had expended the sum of 600 francs or approximately $120, brought out the fact that he was exceedingly vain of it. Among the volumes were Homer, Marcus Aurelius, Auguste Comte side by side with "Comrade" Lorulot, Jean Grave and Zola. Aim, to Destroy Society. "I have been called a poisonous flower," he said. "This Is the first . time I have been treated thus. Those who insult me in this manner are poisonous themselves. This Is a personal insult, an Insult to the whole party.

"It is said I have received only a primary education," he continued. "I waa brought up a bourgeois. My parents were not anarchists. , I possessed the positive philosophy of Auguste Comte and Flammerlon's astronomy. These are not anarchist works. It has been said I had a destructive system. That is not true; 1 only wanted to destrop society." Kvldence was given that Cottin had been dismissed from his workshop for anarchist talk. This Cottln denied. The same witness the chief of the information service of the Prefecture of Police stated that Cottln had said "Clemenceau is a brigand," when talking of the visits of M. Clemenceau to the front when the war was still on. Dr. Uoublnovitch, testifying as to Cot tin's mental state, declared that there was excitement of the nervous system, but no physical trouble. "He

has an excellent memory and sometimes Judges sensibly. . Cottin is not suffering from persecution mania. He 13 of average intelligence, but he has been ill-guided and illdirected. He Is self-willed and has no aptitude for speaking. He recognized this, and to satisfy his pride resolved to act."

DANGER SEEN FROM FLOATING MINES

CONSTANTINOPLE, April 18. Floating mines In the Dardanelles and Sea of Mamora still constitute great danger to navigation. Several ships have been lost since the armistice through mine explosions. The armistice required Turkey to indicate all mines, but it has not been possible In all cases to give their exact location. Mine-sweepers have been at work for some time, but naval author

ities say it will be many months be-j

fore vessels can proceed tnrougn ine straits with safety. No navigation is permitted at night. On passenger vessels lifeboat drills are held regularly, Just as In days when submarines menaced the seas. Even in the broad stretches of the Aegean Sea the greatest precautions are taking against floating mines. In .certain areas passengers are required to wear life preservers, and narrow lanes of travel have been marked out for pilots to follow. But it Is In the Black Sea that the greatest danger exists. Not only are ttfore numerous floating mines there, but extensive unmarked mine fields laid indiscriminately by the Germans, Russians and Bolshevikl. They are a constant menace to shipping. The steamer bearing the American Red Cross Mission to Roumanla narrowly missed a floating mine while proceeding to Constanza. Often these mines are carried down by the swift current In the Bosporous Straits to the Sea

of Mamora, where they are an everpresentd anger to the hundreds of naval and merchant vessels. Naval authorities say it will be reverul years before the waters of Europe are entirely free of floating mines. Many of the German mines

destroyed ay Aineu trawlers were funnd lr havA hp(n mnnril hv innr

When the rope rotted the mines broke from their moorings and drifted in many cases to the main line of steamer travel.

I was numb with suffering the day I left New York as Tom Haskall's wife.

Words cannot describe the travail of

spirit I had gone through, the battle I had fought to expel from my heart a love which had become a torment. I can speak of It now to you. Janet I could even discuss it with Walt himself! If my victory were not bo complete you would not be hearing from me. I write not alone for my own sake, but to set your doubts at rest, dear, and Walt's. "I seem to understand the alchemy purification by flame, for on my soul, Janet, I came through the lire cleansed of much that was evil. In renouncing one love I gained many. In casting out bitterness, sweet and undreamed-of experience have come to me. In giving up accustomed work, new work, fresh hopes, have crowded in. "In the old days I used to divide men into two classes those who were attractive and brilliant and those who were not. Now I sort them according to character. My eyes are opened to the fineness of a really good man. I did not know many men 'ike Tom Haskall when' I was Lucy Benton. Life had dealt me many blows and I was skeptical of men's goodness. Now I see that goodness belongs to no

sex. Tom Haskall is the- best and kindest man I have ever known. "There are different kinds of love, Janet. You were right; love born of respect and gratitude is nc good a love to marry on as any oher. Perhaps better. I have, never been so happy. As fey my work, that, too, is going with gay success! Write me quickly of yourself. My heart is hungry for news. My hands eJasp yours.

dear, and Walt's, in deep affection and friendliness. ' LUCY." "Lucy, darling Some telepathic, transcontinental wave must surely have flashed to you our joy at receiving your letter! i read U through tears blessed, comforting tears, the kind we women love to shed. Walt, cursed with the human male's inability to cry, paced the floor and blew an emotional nose with gusto. "You ask for news. Well, I have it, though it carries no message of

splendid victory like yours I am learning the lesson you left me. Lucy. I am learning how to bo to Walt what you were to him comrade, helpmate, working partner! Yes, madam, let your eyes bulge as they may; I am 'becoming a writer,' as the correspondence school puts it. I am not only collaborating with my husband on a serial story, but I have written three articles on home subjects and. sold them for real money! "It was not easy, Lucy. In working together, -Walt and I had many tilts. At first it frightened me. I thought we were disagreeing seriously and would have to end the experi

ment. But our differences and disputes have been the best of lessons. They have made me think. They have taught me what no smooth sailing ever could. "Never be impressed, Lucy, with persons who say they have 'lived together forty years without a cross word. Such people are either zero mentally or awful liars.

EPISCOPALIANS TO SUBSTITUTE SOCIAL CENTER FOR SALOONS

NEW YORK. Aprl 18. A program of church extension work entailing an expenditure of $20,000,000 and including among its proposed activities "a definite attempt to provide a real substitute for the saloon," as a social center, has been adopted by the Episcopal church in America, according to an announcement published here today on the authority of the church's federal boards. . Of the funds appropriated, more than two-thirds will be devoted to undertakings . in the home field, such as work among immigrants, social service and education. The balance will go to foreign mission expenses, one of whose features will be an increase in the salaries of missionaries. Headed by Bishop Arthur S. Lloyd of the board of missions, the Rev. Ernest M. Styes and Stephen Bakei, of New York, the Rev. Alexander Mann, of Boston and Mortimer Matthews of Cincinnati, the executive committee of the board of missions, issued the following statement: "Many problems and- tasks of unique, and compelling interest thrust upon us by the present world emer-

Building Is Still Being Held Up in England (fty Associated Prpss) LONDON. April 18. With the signing of the armistice it was expected that building operations in London, suspended by the war, would be quickly resumed. But so far there are no signs of a renewal of work on a dozen or more huge unfinished structures in various parts of the city. Labor unrest is the cause asigned by one big contractor for this state of affairs.

"Most of the art objects will eventually be given to the government," said the official announcement of the display. "The United States has so far taken no steps to form a museum dealing exclusively with the great war as have the other allied governments, and the Liberty loan committee feels that these objects will make a splenaid nucleus for such a collection at the end of the drive."

The cause ot this over stoutness is that our stomach converts the food we eat into fat because there Is not enough oxygen in the blood to produce a proper combustion to destroy the excess fatty tissue. Fat people will be pleased to learn of a simple home method that is wonderfully efficient in reducing weight, quickly and easily without a starving diet, violent massage or strenuous exercise. Go to any drug store and get a box of Phynola: take five grains after each meal pnd at bed time. This treatment will often give quick relief from overburdening fat. Phynola taken at meal time assists the stomach in giving you the benefit of ,the food you eat; at the same time dissolves the fatty

tissue from any part of the body where there is excessive fat By this method many have reduced their weight a pound a day and there is no flabbiness left. Conkey Drug Co. can supply you with the genuine Phynola at a small cost. Adv.

Wonder-Working Hats

Years ago when the grown women of today were little women in pinafores, Easter Sunday was the great day of the year. It was on Easter that the spring bonnet made its first appearance. Spring bonnets and Easter are no longer contemporaries. There's no set date any more for the blooming of spring hats more of them appear in February than in April. Like the siren song to the navigators of the golden age, is millinery to the modern woman. She can't resist its lure only she doesn't call it a lure. She would probably say, "Cut awoman never has

enough hats, you know." As to why a woman "just loves hats" we can only give a woman's reason " because " that's all.

Any mere man who has the hardihood to peep into the millinery stores and departments about now will quickly realize why this is so. For the styles are wonderfully fetching they were intended to be. That's one of the ways of a hat, one of the reasons hats occupy so large a share of a woman's time and attention. Now, Mister, perhaps you'll be willing to admit that women's hats are worth what they cost after all. You see,-it isn't the trifle of velvet and straw and ribbon that makes the price of a hatit's the mar

vel that happens when the hat is wcrn. Women find wonder-working hats at prices that make the milliner's bill easy to pay if they
