The announcement was made in the House of Commons last evenihg by the minister of munitions, David Lloyd-George, who told of the prog- ress made by his department in over- coming the shortage in shells that hed prevented the army on the con- tinent from doing all it might other- wise have done. g Factories Near Arsenals, ¥ These 'new factories '‘are being erected in the vicinity of ,u;’ arsenais and the existing armament’establish- ments, and, according:to'Mr, Licyd- George, when the . government has completed in a few weeks the devel- opments on which it is now engaged, the supply of shells would be doubled. “This,” sald the minister of muni- tions, “will not merely emable us to support our men, but will enable them to cleave their way through to vic. tory.” ¢ - Mr. yd-Gleorge explained thay until the new ‘factories are built, the work of his department ‘will be di- rected to speeding up existing con- tracts. At first the government hed been faced with a grave labor short- age, and some machines were lying idle because no ome.could be found to work them. One-third of the ma- chines engaged 'in' government work at the outset were not heing utilzed at night, ~ ° o Nearly 40,000 Bnlisted. During three months his depart- | ment had succeeded in enlisting near- ly 40,000 men and women—nearly half of the men skilled—to the ranks of ‘the workers connected with arma- ments, and they were pouring in fur- ther supplies. His department haa also enrolled 100,000 volunteers, but it had been found difficult to remove the majority of those from their present employment. However, scoves of thousands of skilled men who had enlisted had - been traced; and ar- rangements were made with the war office for the return of these men to the factories. ¥ Steps had been' taken, Mr. Lloyd- George said, to increase'the supply of machine guns and hand grenades for trench warfare. The government had taken ovtr the control of the machine tool factories so that no'delay would arise in equipping theé new establish- ments. Berlin News.

LITHUANIANS MAY HAVE NEW sCHo0L Present Building Unsatistactory- . Moving Pictures in 0ld Hall \ ‘When the present plans of Rev. E. V._Grlklu, the progressive pastor of 8t. ‘Andrews’ Lithuanian church and successor to the late Rev. Joseph Zehris, ‘mature, the city will be in- creased 'in educational lines by a handsome parochial school, as it is the intention of the pastor to erect one in the future. The first step in making the school a necessity is the abolishing of the - present school, whch has been deemed inadequate for the results that Rev. Grikis ‘'has set out to-“secure among the Lithuanian people. 7 Need Education. ‘Edut."a.tlon is one of the things that the pastor feels the Lithuanian resi- dents fieed, and Americanism is one of the objects that he aspires to fur- ther, ' 'Himself a native of .America, he has many ideas that are for the betterment of his people. . The present school is one that is poorly lighted, the heating' facilities are not what they should ‘beé and the building has no fire escapes,’ which are conditions that the pastor feels should not exist. As it ‘would necessitate the outlay of at least $5,000- to make repairs that would place the building in the proper con- dition, it is thought more economic to erect a hew school. Rev. \Grikis has in mind the build- ing of the school on the site of the rectory in which the Zebris murder was perpetrated last February and which has not been occupied since. The pastor on taking up his residence here did not care to live in the house and a8 the property is owned by the church it can be well utilized for a school house. The pastor ‘intends to send the 100 pupils who attend the school to the varjous parochial schools in the city. He interids to maintain a Saturday af- ternoon'gathering where religious'sub- Jjects will be taught and also to con- duct Sunday school in the.building. Use House for Entertainments. The present edifice will not be al- lowed to go without some sort of use, as the pastor is arranging to hold mov- ing-picture shows and other forms of entertainment there from time to time, the procedes to be donated to the ben- ‘efit of the parish. Of late several so- cigl events have been eonducted by societies in the church and the Lith- uanian people are beginning to realize the excellent results to be attained. The . moving picture idea has reached such proportions and interest that it has been deemed advisable to hold a public event and P. S. Mec- Mahon has tendered the free use of Keeney's theater for the purpose. Sixteen Societies In' Church. There are at present about 18 so- cieties in the church and these vari- ous crganizations are &t work fur- thering plans for the mammoth fair planned for between September 20 and 27. The idea of holding the fair originatéd with the pastor and it was quickly grasped by the members of the ‘congregation, who asserted unani- mously “their intentions of joining in making: the affair one that will go down as an epoch is the history of the church. "Organizations which have proven to be a success in other churches such as literary and temperance societies have been fprmed by Rew. Father Grikis, are enthusiastic over the members. The literary society has a membership of about forty people who meet regularly and discuss im- portant topics. ~ The temperance so- ciety has a membership of about thir- ty. The pastor will form a Holy Name Society among the mén parish- Soners shortly, The members of St. Andrew’s church have responded quickly to the views of the pastor, and in a short time it will be one of the most suc- cessful, parishes of its kind in the New England - states. Father Grikis is fortunate in hav-' ing a number of lively assistants and one of the most valuable is the or- ganist, . Mr. Kamnauckas, ‘whose ' knowledge of Lithuanian needs has proven, to be of material assistance to the priest. . FARMERS AT STRATFORD.

WITHERING AW Hunters Say $1,000,000 Worth of the Fungi Will Not Reach Market Minneapolis, July 29.—If all the mushrooms that will jump out of Minnesota soil this year by night, and hide themselves in damp and shady places, could be gathered and distrib- uted to the 400,000 families that em- brace the 2,150,000 people of State, the cost of this vear’s living could be cut down by $1,000,000. At least two family dinners of de- licious food as nourishing as meat for every Minnesota family will come out of the ground, for there is a “bump- er” mushroom crop this year. Be- cause of geographic inaccessibility the major portion of the whole crop will wither as it stands. The Minneapolis Mushroom Club has 100 members, each of whom has, the family icebox full of the edible fungi. June rains have brought up myriads and baskets full have been brought into town from suburban woods- and dells by the courageous hunters of the club. Great is the sport of hunting, say the elect. Just A Dash Of Danger. There is just that spice of danger to it that enthralls the mushroom epl- cure who scorns the high-priced bot- tled stuff that delicatessen stores dis- play and restaurants, at a liberal price increase, spread upon a stedk in. the proportion ‘of about two diminutive ones for every square foot thereof. Out intc the woods goes the Min- neapolis mushroom epicure. Awe- stricken neighbors watch ' the . spoil brought back into the house and look for the oblituary notice to appear a few days later. But the mushroom hunter of ex- perience laughs inwardly. He knows “Agaricus compestis’ when he sees it. He also knows ‘“Amilleria meliia.” In the woods, if he ge a gourmand, he meets, perhaps, the “highbrow" member of the club, who eats the mushrooms he can pick without \rou- ble but whose real hufit in sciendific and, who, would rather find a inew specimen; edible or poisonous, than to find a pot of gold. X How To Know .Toadstools. The hunter who is out to get “mess” of mushrooms for his dinner scorns the Latin words. He knows ‘“‘shaggy mane,” ‘*horsetail,” “mal- tese’ and like varieties by their every- day names. “How can 1 tell a toadstool from a .mushroom?” is the stock question of the beginner in the mushroom hunting. A. W. Latham, librarian of the Minnesota State Horticultural Socie- ty, had a twinkle in his eye as he brought out a copy af the society’s official publication for 1908, which has such instruction. This is what lit says: “First chew a bit and then eject it. If no unfavorable symptoms appear, chew and swallow a bit next day. Third day swallow a larger piece. Feourth day if no bad effects result, eat a whole ene, and if no unfavor- able results follow it may be consid- ered edible.” Experience The Teacher. Mr. Latham smiled at a suggestion that the rule might be condensed to these few words. “East a mess of mushrooms. ir nothing happens to you, they are all right.” Really, however, there is yo royal road to mushroom hunting,” says ex- perts. There are 2,031 catalogues in the United States found all the way from Alaska to Florida, and like the majority of other things the subject must be studied and hunters learn by experience the edible and the poison- ous, ¥ PLAYGROUND CHAMPIONSHIP. mushroom Smalley Ground Garners §5 points in Competitive Contests.

It is better to give up territory, which may be re- #ained than to sacrifice an army which could be replaced only with difficuny.” ¥ Quoting a military authority the Reich goes on to say it is possible that Russia is on the eve of a maneuver which will consist of the retirement of the army from line of the Vis- tula to new defensive positions mark- ed by the strong fortresses of Kov- no, Grodno. and Baast-Litovek. In conclusion the Rei¢h lays emphasis upon the necessity of giving greater | weight to strategic than political con- | siderations. The Bourse Gazette directs atten- tion to an interview secured by its military writer, who says that sev- enty German divisions all the Ger- man cavalyy and a big part of the Austro-Hungarian army is at pres- ent_ aperating against Russia, thereby pfeventing such ‘concentration of the Russian army on the northern front as would be necessary if Russia un- dertook at this time a decisive ag- ' gressive movement. This paper points out that until Russia has completed the mabilization of her industrial for- ces her army cannot meet the German artillery on equal terms. TO FORM BOXING ASSOCIATION.

U.S. FLAG T0 FLY ON STRANGE SHIPS Vesls Bought By Gernan Money to Come Under American Registry ‘Washington, July 29.—Secretary Lansing and Acting Secretary Sweet of the department of commerce, in conference yesterday, agreed that American registry could not be de- i nied to eleven foreign-built steamers purchased for the American .Trans- | atlantic comany, a corporation headed by Richard C. Wagner of New York. The freighters, according to the in. formation at the department of com- merce, were purchased in Britizh, Scandinavian and Mediterranean | ports by a Danish agent named Jen- ‘sen and Theodore Lahr, a Dutch mer- chant, with money supplied by a cap- | italist of Essen, Germany, named | Stinnes. ) | Prompted by discovery that’ Ger- man capital was back of the enter- prise and that Jensen had been con. | victed in Denmark of having violated that country’s neutrality in trade with Germany, the applications for Amer- ican registry were held up. The department was satisfied that the steamships, valued at upward of $2,000,000, represented German capls tal, buti the Wagner company, offer- ing the ships for registry, is a Dela- ware corporation, capitalized at $260,- 000, and Wagner, an American citi~ zen, is president. Members of his family hold the other offces in the corporation. At the time of the ap- \pncauons for regigfty only $1,000 of | the stock had b paid in. The bureau of navigation warned ‘Wagner that if his vessels sought to engage in European trade they prob- ably would find their way to a prize court. Wagner said he knew nothing of the financial arrangements made by Jensen and Lahr, but said that if German money had been wused it | would be repaid by subscriptions to the stock of his company in this country. He also said that some of the ships were to be used in the South American trade. TOO LATE FOR CLASSIFICATION WANMED—An orderly.
