Szbowski had nothing to say about | it except that he had Jone nothing to warrant his arrest, but Judge Hungerford told him he will have five days In which to meditate on his actions and when e leaves jail he should bear in mind that nocturnal screaming demonstratigas will not be tolerated. Szbowski pleaded not guilty, but Officer Cabelus said Mr. Hoffman complained to him about midnight and practically every family within hearing distance of 94 Talcott street was out on the street.

Charles E. Ewing, a missionary who with his family was with Rev. A. D, Hein- inger and family in Techow, China and who returned with the Heining. ers May 23. Rev. and Mrs. Ewin are week-end guests at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Douglas A. Johnston at Maple Hill. Mrs. Johnston is a niece of the missionary. Although the missionaries in Te- chow did not see any actual fight- ing in the present situation, like the Heininger family they have been un- der fire in previous unpleasant situa- tions, Mr. Ewing became a mission- ary under the jurisdiction of the American Board of Forelgn Mis- sions in 1894 and has been through the Boxer uprising. He says there is little doubt that the Nationalist army will eventually rid Itself entirely of the influence of the Russian Reds, but he cannot pre- dict when this will happen. He ex- pects to see it happen before the end of the present summer. The other thing the Nationalist army must do before it will be able to organize things to the best inter- ests of the Chinese people, is to rid the country of the war ldrds of the north, who are fighting to maintain their own selfish interests, he says. These war lords have retreated now to the northeastern section above the Yellow river, and while inferior in numbers to the others, are concentrating their forces in a smaller area. Mr. Ewing says it is not the Chinese policy however to “fight it out’ but that if they see they cannot win they may stop tighting.

He thinks the United States should ap- point delegates to talk treaties at this time and permit the Chinese people to designate who will repre- sent their government.

With the aid of his flash, he usually un- covers all that is hldden to the public eye.

There is no “bully-ragging” con- nected with the work. The fountain employe is not scared to death by an officious person who bellows his rage at the condltion of a neglected pot. Patrons of the place being sited seldom know that he is on a mission of health. Any criticisms which he has to offer are sald when there is little chanee that some fastidious patron will hear him and boycott the place, Glasses which look clean from the counter are held up to the light and frowned over, Spoons are examined, plates are scrutinized, while the white aproned boy stands first on one foot and then on the other foot, wondering why he had not paid more attention te such things before this fateful day. The pumps for the syrups are taken apart and examined; water and seltzer connections are inspect- ed; the refrigerating system is gone over—all i an incredibly short time.
