Tremendous Responsibilities Rest on Vice Admiral to Protect Ship Lanes.

TTASTTTNGTON, J.jr.o A brief WPair from Im'lon Tnisday brought the navy l-;)artrnent its flrt r.fws of th a pnolntnvnt of Vic Admiral cln;s to command th allied naval fore In Irish waters lurin? th af'vrfiiro of tho roratnanoVr of that district. Th department had no othr information a to the new responsibilities placed on th American officr-r. Sim Hn.s Wi'lo Pourrx. The "Washington govern rt'.ent his Kiven Admiral Flms vblo powers to enable him to meet any situation that may arle. Tleraue of th distance from "Washington to th scne of operations, no effort w?.s made to hamper the ofner with requirement that he report for orders. Th admiral has full authority to act on hi own Initiative In disposing the forces at 1:1s command so as to o-

cur the i:ratr-t ro operation with U.M Kr nii ;tn1 Hritih navies and als the uaxirrium rfünmey in the b.ittlo a train st (If rmm submarine. Much of hn time has ben spent in London and Pari and today's advices are the first that he has hen at sta with his ships. It wa said at the department, however, that the officer determined for himself the M-st f rurse to pursue and would spend all his time aMoat if he r:cMrKl that as advisable. Sr-nLit On I1auliip. The statement that Admiral Sims had hoj-tefl his flair us senior allied n.t'.al otfirer in Iri-h waters led to much speculation as t what American warship he mU'ht he usinp as a Üasship as presumably he would hf-ist hi J'ai; only ahoard an American v s-sei. The only facts disclosed by tho department as to vessels now in Kuropein waters have been that destroyers have been sent to British ports and the naval collier Jupiter to a French port with supplier. Tremendous responsibilities have been placed on Admiral Sims' t-houl-ders. The tale of torpedoed ships in Irish waters is an often repeated one. It has been said that even without the American vessels, the r.ritish have had thousands of destroyers, submarine chasers of all sizes and kinds, mine sweepers, aircraft and every other known method of combatting submarines posted

In these waters tn the effort to keep open the hhlppinK lanes. All of thc-Mj forces are now under Admiral Sims. On him also rests probably the duty of arrant;inK for the arrival and departur of commercial vessels, both trans-Atlantic and coastwise, that ply Irish waters. The Iintish admiralty exercises rigid control over all f-hip movement and no vessel leaves port until the naval commander reports the seas free of the enemy. In nome quarters it was pointed out that the announcement that the American officer had been placed, even temporarily. In command of British forces greatly superior to those lander the American fla.? in these waters misht have a political effect in Ireland, where the situation is turbulent with tlr approach of the Irish convention period. It micht tend to show beyond question, it was suggested, that the British and American governments were in perfect accord.

House of Commons Votes To Grant Women Suffrage

IOXPON. June 20. The house of commons Tuesday nicht by a larpe majority passed the final reading of the clause in the electoral reform bill dealing with the question of women's suffrage. It is expected that a proposal now will be made that the franchise he conferred on women on the same basis as men. The majority by which the house of commons reaffirmed its adhesion to the principle of woman suffrage

'astonished the warmest supporters

of the measure. They anticipated a victory, but none seemed to imacin? that there would be such a sweeping triumph. This was partly due to the

Steel ships differ from those of wood in that their hulls are made of steel plates ri. t'd together, instead of the old method of using wooden planking. They are enabled to float because, being hollow. . they have what is called buoyancy. A steel ship displaces a volume of water equal in weight to its own. The principle buoyancy may he tested hy lloating an iron pail in a bath tub full of water.

lack of Interest fhown at time In the Ions: drawn out debate. The government left the question to the unfettered judpment of the house, not attempting to Influence opinion in the leapt decree.

CHICAGO, June 20 The Countess Eleanor Patterson Gizyeka. formerly Miss Fleanor Medlll Patterson of Chicago, testified in her suit for divorce Tuesday, telltn a story of neglect and unhappines-s on the lonesome Russian estate of her husband. Count Josef Gizyeka, tiiat llnallj won from Judse Charles M. Thomson the announcement that he was satisfied she should receive her decree. The ancestral estate of the Russian nobleman which lie had

. described vividly before their mar

riage in Washington in 1904. proved to be a tumble down, ramshackle castle, surrounded by peasants liuts und hve miles from a railroad. Countess Gizyeka testified. The imposing array of 70 servants proved to be a hoide of Russian peasant t oys and plrls, who received no pay, but their food and a trifling present at Christmas. She declared that hr husband's life was centered on huntinpr. drinking and women, that his father had died insane, that the servants lived in constant terror of him and that he had married her Hoiely for her niont-y. The countess stated that she wished to be known as Mr.?. Gizyeka and wanted to lose her title forever. All of her income of $J0,0 a year had been used to maintain her titled husband's establishment rhe continued.

Don't Let Soap Spoil Your Hair

When you wash your hair, be careful what you use. Most soap." and prepared shampoos contain to" much alkali, which 's very injurious, as it dries the scalp and makes the hair brittle. The best thing to use is just plain mulsified cocoanut oil, for this is pure and entirely grensele-;s. It's very cheap, and beats the most expensive soaps cr anything else all to pieces. You can get this at any drug store, and a few ounces will last the whole family for months. dimply moisten the hair v:lth water and rub it '.n. about a teaspoonful is all that is required. It makes an abundance of rich, creamy lather, cleanses thoroughly, and rinses out easily. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and is Gft, fre.h Iookin.r. bright, fluffy, wavy and easy to handle. Resides, it loosens and takes out every particle of dust. dirt and dandruff. Adv.

TT "FERE is a record of "Old" Black j Joe' by Louis Graveure, the JL JL world-famed baritone, thnt i

a perfect gem of inspired song-interpretation. The very soul of the old dying darkey speaks in moving tenderness in each phrase. "Carry- Me Back to Old Virginny" voices the longing expressed in the words with

rare, touching and true expressiveness. Of the same class is Lucy Gates' rendering of "Aloha Oe," the Hawaiian farewell song, with the sweet sound of

bringing out the tender beauty of her voice; Francis Macmillen's first recording of two of his own violin compositions; and the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra's recording of the "Barcarole" from "The Tales of Hoffman." These are indeed unusual Gems of Vocal and Instrumental Art
