- NEETS MUCH DIFFICOLTY IN IS FUNCTION Nearly Every “Minister” Is Fugitive and Stands Liable to Arrest CABINET MANAGES TO HOLD SECRET SESSIONS Finance Commissioner Mike * Collins One of Them; Seems to Be in Bad By Webb Miller (United Press Correspondent) Dublin (By Mail)—In spite of the utmost viligence of the British auth- orities the “government of the Irish Republic” is still functioning to a certain extent. Since the orders for the suppression of all Sinn Fein or- ganizations and the Dail Efreann, or Sinn Fein parliament, the ‘‘govern- ment” has been carried on witn the greatest difficulty: Altho nearly every “‘minister” is a hold a furtive secret meeting occa- sionally.

Singapore knew them, and Port Said, and Cal- cutta, and the Ivory coast, and the isles of the Pacific, and the Arctic, and all the lands and waters visited by men who go down to the sea in ships. Fifty years—and finally the sea lost-its charm for the two old shipmates. They retired and went to Chicago te live.

The aged men were found in their cottage at the rear of 3213 Clifton avenue by Ernest Lindbloom, a son-in-law of Johnson, who lived next door. The gas was escaping from a plate in the kitchen stove. Both men were widowers. Six months ago Jacobson, who did odd jobs- in a shop near his son’s house, had left the latter's home tg establish bachelor quarters with his old seafaring friend. A Lindbloom told the town hall police he had called at his father-in-law's door to ask him to watch for a number of Christmas packages. An open win- dow indicated that death had been accidental.

Miller was a Bemidji the purpose of hearing reports of the jshopper Thursday. activities of the different depart- ments and keeping the organization intact, Four Being Hunted At the present moment four mem- bers of the “cabinet” are being hunt- ed by the British government author- ities. They are: D. J. Barton, minis- ter of agriculture; Countess Markie- viez, minister of labor; Ernest Blythe, minister without portfolio, and Michael Collins, minister of finance. Several of these men are still in Dublin but kept under cover so clev- erly that the government, agents are unable to put their hands upon them. Only a few days ago two of the mem- bers were seen on the streets in dis- o guises by acquaintances. Within the past week Collins walk- el boldly- down Sackville street, the mainthoroughfare, and met face to face with two government secret ser- s vice men who immediately recognized kg him. Collins coolly shoved his hands in his hip pocket and walked between the detectives. Knowing his reputa- tion as a desperate and daring fighter, the detectives feared to tackle him. Within a few minutes the district was swarming with police but Collins had vanished. Daring Escape In the last ‘“round-up” of woinn Fein leaders in which the government planned to make a clean sweep of the “cabinet,” Collins had a close shave. Although forewarned of the impend- ing raid he waited too long and when the party of police arrived at the Sinn Fein headquarters in Harcourt street Collins was inside and the building was surrounded. With only a few seconds to spare ue succeeded in reaching the roof and thence crossed to the roof of a hotel next door and calmly watched the raid. After the police had departed Col- lins siarted to descend but fell thru a skylight into the hotel and almost into the arms of a Britisn officer, who raised an alarm. In the confu- siqn Collins got away. As Minister of Finance, Collins is .handling the funds and campaign for the “Irish Republic” loan. Although the exact status of the loan is un- known it is reported that it has reached the sum of several hundred thousand dollars. For safe keeping this is said to be distriputed among a I:rge number of persons in small amounts, so as not to arouse suspi- cicn. BEvidences of the activity of Collins’ “ministry” are visible.to any casual observer in the streets of Dublin. The walls and signboards are plaster- ed with appeals to ‘‘buy bonds of the Irizh Republic.” With an eye to permanency the loan advertis.ng .s Ipainted in biack stenciling. One of the favorite positions for the appeal is over Lord French’s proclamations, and with characteristic Irish humor ‘ someone painted one on the police 5 ] The lath mill commenced operation Thursday.

MAKES NEW USE OF ECHOES Inventor’s Idea May Do Away With the Old Practice Known as “Heaving the Lead.” An inventor in Oakland, Cal.,, has found a new and practical use for echoes, and as a result the time may come when the practice of “heaving the lead” at sea will be known only in historical novels and old maritime history. The marimeter, as the new device is called, sends a- sound from the keel of the ship to the bottom of the sea; the sound comes back as an echo, and the journey, automatically recorded on a diaphragm, is translated into terms of lengfh. The report shows the depth of water between keel and hottom, calculated from the known speed of the sound-wave in salt water, and the knowledge may be acquired at the rate of four ‘soundings a minute, which Is very much faster than by the older methods. The marimeter, to be sure, has only recently gone to sea, if indeed the steamer Governor, which station walls. Newsoapers Sunpressed Several Dublin weekly newspapers were suppressed for publishing the advertising for the Irish Loan. Next after Collins, the British gov- ernment is most anxious to get D. 1. Barton, the minister of agriculture. Barton has had a romantic career. At the time of the Easter rebellion he : was a British army officer. He was 4 placed on guard over some of the Sinn Fein prisoners and through conversation with them became con- verted to Sinn Feinism. Since then he has been one of the bitterest ene- mies of the British government in Ire- land. One of the many mysteries of Dub- lin Castle’s actions is the freedom al- lowed Arthur Griffith, the acting pre- sident of the “Irish Republic.” Since the wholesale sweep in 1917, Griffith has not been molested. Other Sinn ‘- 'Feiners declare that the government is afraid to arrest Griffith vecause it would precipate an uprising. Mean- while. Griffith comes and goes more | or less freely about Dublin and is ! ,readily accessible to visitors. IR will carry the first of them, has yet left dry dock in Seattle, Wash.

Some years ago a French-Canadian rancher was rambling about a distant part of his land when he noticed a plece of rock which glistened in the sun. Out of curiosity he picked it.up and took it home with him. Its weight convinced him that it was mineralized rock and he took it to a specialist, who found it to be almost pure silver. Since then that ranch has yielded between 50,000,000 and 60,000,000 ounces of sil- ver, Expensive Leather. The finest and most expensive leather goods are produced at Chan- Chan-Foo, in' China. The leather is made from lizard. shark, dolphin and snake skins, which are very strong and durable. Snake skins are used for canes, pipes, purses, pocketbooks, etc. ——— e e Mrs. Urban Was Too Nervous to Look After House— Quickly Restored By Tanlac “Tanlac has done me more good than all the other medicines I. have taken in my whole life before,” said Mrs. Frank Urban, who resides at 831 Magnolia St., St. Paul Minn., re- cently. Continuing, she said: “For five years I have suffered from stomach troublée and extreme nervousness. I had scarcely any ap- housework without becoming tired except in a natural way, and the headaches and dizzy spells 2re things of the past.” | Tanlac is sold in Bemidji by the City Drug Store, in Kelliher by Mrs. R.
