F. J. Archibald by the British at Falmouth. Austria a strenuous’endeavor through its t to this government 10 have an embargo placed upon tha exportation of munitions of war from | this country. It was an unjustified protest in view of the rights covering such a matter under international law mnd this government rightly refused to give any heed thereto. declared that it had been acting un- der its rights in permitting the ‘man- ‘ufacture of munitions of war for any and all of the belligerents and that it intended to hold to its prewiously de- clared position. It would have been B breach of neutrality to have dona otherwise. According ta Ambassador: Dumba’s statement Austria was not satisfied wwith that declaration. It sought to secure its object, in part, if not whol- 1y, by other methods. But whether his letter was called for by his gov. ‘ernment, or whether it was the ‘result of his own initiative urged on by other foreign representatives in this country is for this government to de- termine. In it he recommends action for his government's approval which mims at the embarrassment of United States business:which this government sanctioped. There is no indica- from the text ofthe letter that it is a report on the advisability of Buch a move suggested by Austria's foreign minister, but rather advice from him as to what-Austria should endorse, ARCH! IBNL;‘S ACT, Not by any means can the part which the “American writer, James F. J. Archibald, has played in connection with the effort to send secret mes- sages bearing on the war through belligerent territory to the German and Austrian governments under the protection of an American passport, be looked upon-with impunity. Though the reason for ‘it has not been fully the action of Great Britain In permitting him to get away with- out severe punishment in that country Is contrary to the usual practice, but In view of the fact that he is return- Ing to this country rellance may be *2‘ on ¢ \this government to handle Certainly a man in Archibald's po- knows:the value of an Ameri- passport.

The Philippines must be carefully guard- | that ed against just such conditions as ame present perpiclous lack of gelf res straint and sacrifice of public weal to political pelf and preferment are cured by a longer training in paetial self government.” Again it must be said Mr. Taft knows what he is talk- ing’ about. B ——— SHORE RESORT HEALTH CONDI. TIONS, In an address befors the ‘Public Health association iter, Dr. W. B. Brown mew electric car drove their deor a few days later and oS o yousg ‘man, to whom Ing of an electric was no more le than the eating of his dinner. But not so with Mrs. Cotterby. She Jessons and then they to the country to the Wwhere the comforts ‘tion the failure to give proper thought | and and consideration to the sanitary con- ditions at many summer resorts and camps. There can be no question but what he is thoropghly conversant with this laxity and It is well that it should bo kept prominently before the public mind as well as a medical City conditions prevall in such places just as soon as there is the temporary increase in population brought about by vacations and the hot weather, and yet the problems of /Eanitation which are wrestled with in large communities are persistently shunted to the back seat in symmer resorts because they are occupled but a small portion of the year. The sum- mer resort with its chty troubles s allowed to get along with little bet- “ter methods than those which are con- sidered sufficlent at a camping place where but few are accommodated. Considerations are given to providing countless gttractions and the means of having a good time for which high prices are pald, but the provision of adequate health measures is too.often forgotten or neglected. This results in the distribution of much disease and many cases of siekness and not 8 few deaths can be attributed yearly to the fallure to give this matter proper attention. The need of attaching more im- portance to sanitation and cleanliness at summer resorts cammot get too much publicity and the arraignment of the conditlons by Dr. Brown is not only timely but should be carefully heeded. THE CZAR IN COMMAND, Just what is meant by the change in control of the Russian armies and the announcement that {s made that Czar Nicholas has placed himseclf at the head of his valiant forces is not fully disclosed. No reason is given for taking the honor away from Grand Duke Nicholas, who has up to now been directing the Russian war operations in the field, or Whether the change is made because of dissatisfaction which may prevail over the long list of re- verses which Russia has suffered of late. It would be strange, indeed, if after the manner in which the Russian ar- mies have been driven back into their own territory and out of thirteen of their fortresses that full satisfaction should prevail and it is entirely pos- sible that it has been found advisable at this time to make & change in the method of conducting the campalgn. The czar's communication gives no hint of discouragement and it is en- tirely possible that the time has ar- rived for a new offensive action which it is believed can be best conducted with the czar at the head of it A new policy and a new leader is ot so surprising under existing con- ditions along the eastern front and it is bound to be Tevealed in due time Were to make life a bed of roses. The demonstrator accompanied Mrs. Cot- terby in her car as far as the suburban door. 1 ‘When Cotterby stepped / from the syburban s that night his heart glowed with pride when he noted that his plucky little wife was calmly seat- ed in her car awaiting him. He took his seat besides her and they etarted. “Where are you doing?” he demanded when, instead of turning around, Mrs, Cotterby proceeded straight ahead. “I'm in a hurry to et these onion sets in before it gets ”* Cotterby explained, “and I have some zinnia plants that are suffering for planting. So doo't lets teke & drive” h, Roswald, we must!” declared Mrs. Cotterby mournfully. You see, I -can’t turn around and I'm afraid that we shall have to go on to Hubbard Park before we can find a place to turn.’ / “Well, these things are certainly a great convenience,” remarked Cotterby. “It would take me five minutes to walk hour, whereas we shall be at least a quarter of an howr going this way." THE WAR PRIMER By National Geographic Society The famed Winter Palace of the Russian Tsar probably has seen mo romantic history in the making than any other bullding in Europe. The dramas that have unfolded within its walls would overshadow, if told, the most highly colored of po- litical fictionists, and the huge build- ing apears worthy of all the fascinat- ing memories which cling to it. For generations Russia reached out from this Home of the Empire toward ever more distant frontiers, toward ev- ery compass point, building the great- est of states. The Winter Palace, a symbol of the empire, mayhap en- dangered by the present Teutonic in- vasion, is described in the following statement issued by the Natlonal Geo- graphic Soclety: “Among the many palaces of Petro- grad, a city whereln dukes, grand- dukes, diplomats, and millionaires dwell in abundance, the Tsar's Winter Palace, a structure of truly imperial immensity, stands out unapproachable, It is of th Md's largest and meost imposing buildings, and the air of its rooms and corridors is sur- charged with the romance of history. During the capital seasons In peace times, the most brilliant court In Eu- rope could seen here, when the #reat rooms were ablaze with light and jewels, and filled with & splendid dis- play of gowns and uniforms. “The Winter Palace stands on the left bank of the Neva, on a site be- queathed to Peter the Great by his High Admiral, Count Aprazin. ' The Empress Anne first made her residence in the Admiral's _house, which was pulled down in 1754, and the founda- tions of the Winter Palace laid. The what brought about the chanze and)| heore why it was made, Whether 1t is a sig- nal to the other allies without meaning anything else lies with the future and n the meantime it furnishes some- thing new for the Teutonic ellles to think about, .

And one man was trying to handle that crowd, while others with- out tickets passed me and were in the grand stand before I got into the grounds. I heard many remark that never again would they buy tickets from union men on that account. The idea of getting to the turnstile witySut the proper change and being told to go back and get it. Then from your children making them tal and pay their own fare through difterent gate and lose them in the crowd for a while. It certainly was very unsatisfactory at times. The grand stand was as bad. One man selling tickets to probably 3000 people when there ought to' be a few among the crowd during the rush hours at least. It took at least 15 minutes to buy your grand stand ticket Monday. Yes, there is lots of room for improy ment. GETTSOME LIFE. Norwich, September 8, 1915, Stories of the War Brussels Has Plenty of Food. Thanks to the splendid work of the American relief fund, there is plenty of food in Brussels and no one is 'starving. There is, indeed, no lack of anything, although' prices are high. The consumption of bread is con- trolled by law, but it is of good qual- ity and ample in quaptity. Some mov- ing picture theaters are open, but the regular theaters are all closed. Tele- phones cannot be used, telegrams can. not be sent or received; the postoffice is under control of the German mili- tary authorities.
