HORATIO BOTTOMLEY, SPECTACULAR FIGURE, i BEHIND PRISON BARS
By CHARLES M. MeCANN (United Press Staff Correspondent) LONDON. July 3. (By Mail to United Press). Oa the blue and gold afternoon recently all London paused and grabbed at newspapers with which panting boys raced through the streets. The placards. "Bottomley Verdict," or, somewhat more significantly, "Bottomley Sentenced," appeared magically in front of the newstands. For an hour afterward no one walked about London or went into the clubs, or the houses of commons or lords, in the former of which the news was officially announced, without hearing shocked, half-incredulous murmurs of: "Seven years seven years. . . . how old is he?" It meant that Horatio Bottomley. the most spectacular figure in British life, leader of his private Independent party in commons, financier, banker, owner of several newspapers, perhaps the kingdom's most persuasive speaker, a writer who as a sideline of his countless activities received $1,250 each for weekly newspaper articles of a column or two, proprietor of a huge racing stable and self-appointed godfather of British ex-service men had been sentenced to seven years' penal servitude for fraudulent conversion of sums estimated at $750,000. Means Seven Years Seven years over here means seven
years, with three months of .each year remitted in the event of good behavior. To Bottomley.it meant-r-as he stood
stone-like in the dock with his pudgy little hands on the rail before him; as the warders put; their, hands on his shoulders and he turned snapped out a vicious parting jibe at the judge and slamming behind him the door to the cells to him it meant the end of everything. He left his shining tophat lying en the table and started for "Wormwood Scrubs prison, the half-way house to the first offenders' penitentiary at the quiet, sunny little town of Maidstone. - He must have thought as he went in a taxicab with warders of what England said of him: That he could have been prime minister, or lord chancellor.

ONLY SIX BELGIUM
WAR DOGS SURVIVE
(By Associated Press) GHENT, Belgium, Only six of Belgium's "War Heroes" remain.' They are not human heroes, but brilliantly intelligent and daring dogs who distinguished themselves for valor and fidelity on the field of battle. Originally there were 16, but 10 proved
that even dogs can be martyrs. Three were killed in action at the front, three died of wounds, two were poisoned by the Germans, one died of grief over the loss of his soldier master, and one was mercifully put out of his
misery when the enemy came to seize him. The six survivors were proudly exhibited by their owners at the Palais des Petes recently. Some have gallant 'acts of peace to their credit as well as honors of war. They have saved children from drowning, stopped runaway horses, caught burglars,
protected sheep and stood silent guard over their masters' lives -and homes. Three of them have the Cross of War for heroism and devotion in the field?

DECIDE TO REMODEL HAGERSTOWH SCHOOL HAGERSTOWN, Ind., July 3. A de
cision to remodel the old grade school
building at Hagerstown was recently reached by the schol board here. This
buildinc was constructed about 45 1
years ago and has since served to
house the grade schools as well as the high school. The remodeling of this structure is a part of the general construction program of the Hagerstown school board, which includes a new high school building now under construction. The plans for the remodeling work are being worked out by Werkin & Son of Richmond and include a change in the lighting by putting in new windows on the north, new floors throughout and an improved ventilation system. The window sashing will all be of steel and the entire exterior will be stuccoed. The estimated cost of the improve

Egypt's Crops Threatened; Nile Abnormally Low (By Associated Press) ALEXANDRIA, Egypt, July 3. To lower Egypt irrigation is of the utmost importance, and the water for this purpose comes from the Nile. This year the water level of. Lake Albert and the White Nile, whence Egypt gets 80 per cent of its irrigation water, is abnormally low. In 1914 the Nile was at its lowest record; this year it promises to be lower. The Blue Nile, another contributor, also is very low this spring as the Abyssinian rains were late. As a result the distribution of water in July will be strictly limited. Trench levels will be low, and it is feared that
irrigating machines will have to be used as in 1914.
