Vienna, Pres: Dec. 23—Enormous sums of money have been collected in Austria- | Hungary for charitable purposes dur- | ing the war. No reliable figures on the total obtained available, but estimates place it as high as 240,- 000,000 crowns (approximately $48,- 000,0060). Much of this money has been applied already, but large surs are still available for the needs ot those for whom it was collected. The money has been raised in every mann the fertile brains of social leaders and newspaper editors could devise. sale of needlework done by society people; benefit performances at the theatres; the public sale of art ob- jects which people were willing to do- nate; and a hundred similar enter- prises have given keen competition to the plaln subscrlpt.lon and collec- are tion cai th& newspa- | pers. exhibition sale is ~progress. whlch both the admission fées and entire pro- &ééds ‘of sale will go to the fund for blind veterans. Some of the foremost palniters of the colntry have contrib- uted to the collection, and while many of the plotures are by uhknown men and wotnen, there i8 not one in the lot that doés not have merit of a high order.” Going on at the same time are several series of lectures on the war by the Austro-Hungarian and German war correspondents, invalided officers and statesmen. Ardor Undiminished. All social classes take an interest in the work, and a remarkable feature of it is that a year of collections has left the ardor of organizers and of the public almost undiminished. Constant- ly new schemes are being worked out, many of the recent ones assuming SAGE TEA TURNS GRAY HAIR DARK | If Mixed with Sulphur It Darkens So Evenly that It Cannot Be Discovered.

Of these a ten- heller (two cents) tax on all bills is probably the most successful. Of newspaper collections that of the Vienna Neue Freie Presse has been the most remarkable. It has included taxa- the raising of large sums for blind veterans, for prisoners of war, for Christmas presents for soldlers, for the supply of artificial limbs, for the Bulgarian and Austrian Red Cr for the tuburcular soldiers, for widows and orphans for assistance to needy ar- tists, for fugitives from the southern theater of war, for increasing the submarine fleet, and numerous other specific purposes. Clever Scheme Devised. A prominent Budapest newspaper, Az Est, for instance, collected nearly 2,000,000 crowns to help the people in the Carpathians ard Northern Hun- gary to rebuild their villages which had been destroyed during occupation by the Russians, A clever scheme was devised for this collection. It is cus- tomary in Hungary to make presents to a woman on a day carrying her name in the calendar. For instance on St. Mary’s day, all Marys in Hungary are remembered by their friends. Az East suggested that the money to be spent in this way be turned over. to the village-building fund. Much of the money that is being collected is the fruit of little self-de- nials, a single day’s list showing such entries as the tollowing: “Instead of buying a new dress, 200 crowns; in place of birthday pres- ents for my father, 80 crowns; instead of flowers for the grave of Capt. —— 100 crowns; to give satisfaction in an affair of honor, 2,000 crowns; for the birth of a son, 200 crowns.” Loyally Give Support. gary’'s population without distinction to class, has come loyally to the sup- port of those in the field and their families, and those whom the war has deprived temporarily of means of live- lihood. While the exchange of Red Cross and similar funds between Aus- tria-Hungary and Germany has been solely a matter of courtesy hetween allies. Austria-Hungary has already spent the greater part of a million crowns in Red Cross work in Bulgar- ia. 1t has sent military equipment and supplies worth over a million crowns to Turkey, and even in Poland Austro-Hungarian charity work has been felt. As soon as conditions in Serbia make it possible, it is under- stood that money and supplies will be sent there also. FREIGHT CONGESTION. New Haven Road Issues Order to Ac- celerate Car Movements. The New Haven Rallroad Company issued today the following order to all field men of the Traffic Department: “Effective at once and until fur- ther notice. It is desired that you desist from any further solicitation of freight and in lieu thereof institute a systematic compaign among all re- eeivers and shippers of freight on the New Haven Railroad, prevailing upon them to promptly release cars by ex- peditious unloading in order that the terminals may be relieved quickly, thereby avolding congestion and en- abling the company to return the foreign equipment on our rails to the home lines more rapidly. “Patrons of the company taking de- livery of freight through the houses, should also be impressed with the importance of promptly taking away to them, thus avoiding a congestion of these facili- ties. “Will you please have your forces start this work at once and on any questions of overlapping territory con- fer one with the other and evolve some satisfactory scheme to bring about the desired results promptly.” e e Public Notice. The local liv men hereby wish to inform the public that after January 1, 1916, the price of hacks for local funerals will be $4.00 per hack. (Signed) LIVERYMEN.—advt. WHY IT SUCCEEDS Because It's for One Thing Only, and New Britain People Appreciate This. Nothing can be good for everything. Doing one thing well brings suc- cess. Doan’s Kidney Pills are for one thing only. For weak or disordered kidneys. Here is New Britain evidence to prove their worth. Mrs. C. Burkinshaw, 149 W. Wash- ington street, New Britain, says: “We have used Doan’s Kidney Pills in our family for years and from the bene- fit we have received, I don’t hesitate to recommend them. We have used Doan’s Kidney Pills for any symptoms of kidney trouble, such as pain in the back and difficulty with the kidney secretions and they have always made a speedy cure of the attack.” Price 50c, at all dealers, Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan's Kidney Pills—the same that Mrs. Burkinshaw recommends., Fos- There is no doubt that Austria-Hun- | ing advantages. Join RANSDELL ATTACKS EX-SEN. BURTON ter-Milburn Co., Props., Buffalo, N. Y. Blames Him for Present System | of Waterway Improvements (Special to the Herald.) Washington, D. C., Dec. 30—“A leopard cannot change its spots but it séems than an American politician with the presidential bee in his bon- net, may change the views of a life- time %n a great question of national policy.” The speaker Ransdell, and was Jos. E. U. S. Senator from Louisiana president of the National Rivers and Harbors congress, who went on to say: ) i Ex-Senator Burton, in the January “War has not been de- ‘Munsey’ 1 clared against water imprové- nts in the United States,” yet & areful reading of his article shows that the ex-Senator: has certainly de- ¢lared most virulent war against near- ly all our interior streams—on which ght is carried in competition with railroads. Power Almost Supreme. “Mr. Burton criticizes in the sharo- est manner our method of making waterv improvements. During the ten years that he was chairman of the Rivers and Harbors committee his power over waterway legislation s almost supreme, and he is more bonsible for the present sy than any other man. If it is b b which I deny, then the principal blame rests on him. While he was chairman, some of the projects he now attacks so bitterly, notably the Trinity river, were inaugurated. Why did he not prevent it, or at least op- pose it, in the Halls of Congress? The"| record shows he was a strong cham- pion of the trinity at that time. ‘According to Mr. Burton, our im- provements for harbors ‘for the most part’ have been profitable, while hundreds of millions spent on rivers have been wasted. Let us bear in mind that harbors are railroad ter- minals, where cars are unloaded on to boats, and in turn receive freight from them. There is no competition whatsoever between harbor and rafl- road, but each is the necessary com- plement and adjunct of the other. The river, however, is a separate and | distinct agency of transportation which competes with the railway and carries freight at lower rates. The French say ‘Cherchez la femme,'— find the woman. It does not seem diffi- cult to find her in this case Article Misleading. Mr. Burton's article distoris facts, juggles figures, and is thorough- 1y misleading. of safety that a strong and properly conducted bank can is given this bank’s depositors.

Curtis made a last and vain effort to block the con- tinuance of the municipal ice house at a special meeting of the common council last evening. His arguments fell on deaf ears and when a vote was taken he was hopelessly outnumbered. The council met to act on a recom= mendation from the board of finance and taxation appropriating $4,100 for repairs to the icehouse and harvesting the crop- The report and the resolu- tion for its adoption were presented by Alderman E, A. Parker. Jouncilman Curtis made a brief and pessimistic speech, prefacing it by stating that he knew the majority of those present were not in accord | with his views. “I think the council and the city will make a mistake In passing this recommendation,” he said. “I under- stand that the main argument is that the jcehouse helps the poor and keeps taxes. It is human nature burdens onto someone else. tory owners wont reduce dends to pay any tax. The forced to pay a tax, will tak the consumer. You might § kiss your money good-byi never see it again. “When you get down to t} of it, the poor people are consumers and they will pa; do them an injury.
