By the Asiociatod rren
London, Nor. 17. According to n
special dispatch to the Dally Mali, Gen
eral Laldoncr, commander-in-chief of
the EXhontan nrmy, has succeeded
iiencrni luaenltcn, wio resigned ns
commander of the northwestern Russian
nrmy.
The capture of Omsk by Russian
soviet forces, unofficially denied lu ad
Trices through Scandinavia yesterday, Is
reasserted in a Bolshevik wireless com
mtiniquo from Moscow today. Severe
street flRhtinK preceded tho capturo and
more than 1000 prisoners were taken by
thn Bolshcviki, It is declared.
The Kolchak forces retreated east
ward In disorder, says the statement,
which also claims the capture of
Yanovsky.
In diplomatic circles here it Is be
lieved tho Bolshcviki nre entering tho
ngcotiatlons 'at Dorpat regarding the
rxehnngc of prisoners with every Inten
tion of endeavoring to open peace pour
parlers with Orcat Britain.
The make-up of tho delegation ac
companying M. Litvanoff, former Miviot
minister to Great Britain, who heads
the mission, is considered significant,
and also is the fact that numerous tele
grams have been received from tho
Bolshevik government expressing the
deepest appreciation of the arrange
ments made for tho conference, the mes
sages being couched in the most concili
atory terms.
James O'Grady, labor member of the
House of Commons, who Is representing
Great Britain, has definite Instructions
not to enter into any pourparlers ex
cept with relation to prisoners.
Ilelslngfors, Nov. 17. General
Tudenltch's troops nre retreating hur
riedly from Ynmburg In the direction
nf Nnrvn. on the liulf of Finland, ac
cording to latest advices. Some of his
troops already have entered the Ks
thonian lines.
Beval, Nov. 17. (By A. P.) The
position of Yudcnltch's northwestern
nrmy, it has been known for many
days, has become more serious. His
statements about future operations
have been made to hide the real situa
tion from the public, according to in
formation renchlng Itevnl. The disor
ganization of his army is daily more
evident. The Yudcnltch forces arc
crowded in a small space near Jam
burg. A week ngo General Yuilcnitch in
quired as to what Esthonia would do if
he were obliged to cross the Esthonian
frontier. The answer was that lie could
take over the hospitals and 'supplies,
but that his troops must disarm.
Bolshevist pressure has been too great
In allow Yuilcnitch to reorganize his
forces, and since the loss of Ynmburg
the situation has become aggravated.
Washington, Nov. 17. "The Ode on

"Intimations of Immortality" what is

cumstances and the taste of the pa

cheaper to pay $1.G0 for n thriller than
to stoop to it in its ten-cent disreputn
bility. T hnvc snid prescribed by Doctor
Grnyson, but the President's physician
rather tells what his patient hhall not
read, or rather have read to him by
his wife, for Mrs. Wilson is the render,
thnn whnt he shall. A physician, when
n mnn has gone so fnr on the single
trnck thnt lie comes to stnasii, line n
stntute book or like the decalogue,
specializes In "thou s-hnlt nots."
The Reading of a. President
"Whnt doca ho read?" sou ask.
"Well," begins the admiral, "noth
ing to worry him. Nothing to make
him think about his work or his re
sponsibilities. Nothing that will tnkc
too much mentnl effort.
"Well, but whnt?"
"Detective stories." the admiral snvs
it with n rising inflection nnd slightly
hesitating note. The past of this lit
erary parvenu is too well remembered.
"Let me sec, 'The Middle Temple
Murder,' It Is by J. S. Fletcher, and
o rmirtnhlo boards nre wrapped in
n ghostly paper cover, reminiscent of
humbler origin. l '""w1' "i

It is plnin Doctor Grayson never
wrote "Recipe One Tiger's Tooth.
Misce in one Grecian urn. Syrupus
Simplex q. s. Two hours dnily."
"And, oh, poetry. The President
calls for his own poetry. Wordsworth."
The ndmiral gives this nnmo with con
fidenco. Evidently Wordsworth is the
President's favorite, most frequently
read poet.
Golf Mixed With Personalities
"Kents. Shelley. Bjron?" the ndmiral
is nsked to help his memory.
"Yes. Kents. the 'Ode on it Grecian
T'rn.' " One might have guessed
Wordsworth with certainty, hut Kents
is u surprise. The Pi evident has his
old favorites rend to him, the poems
that ha knows almost hy henrt. .n

ably it is safe to ndd Browning to
CONSUMERS ON STRIKE
Abstain From Milk Three Days a

New York, Nov. 17. (By A. P.I
Milk drivers, whose recent threat of a
strike won them an Increase of pay
and sent milk prices up, touna a "con
sumers strike" In progress in many
parts of New York today, when they
mnde their deliveries.
Hanging on doors of many homes nnd
npartments were signs reading: '.Milk

(lie slim list that the admiral ou1d
recall.
"Intelligence in n (iolf Hall" is in
u olmnt' of essnys by A. (5. (Inrdiner,
the former editor of the London Ncwh,
one of the rndienl editors of Knghindi
with whom the President Iins had nuiii
points of I'onlnrt. The book deuls with
nen-otinlitlcK with ('lomcncjeuu Mr.
Wilson must enjoy the memory of, the
moment in the lVnre Conference when
tlie piemler of Vrnncc ".aid to him:
"You lime n henrt of steel" with
Lloyd (ieorge, with golf.
This pnitinilnr intelligent golf bnll
was ilium from tho tee 1f0 jnrdx
strnlglit down the eoursp, a stntesmiius
drive. like (' . n gentleinnn's mark in
college, n perfectly proper dric. You
knew ou could wnlk directly to the
bnll. Hut when the driver readied the
pot the bnll was nowhere in night.
A long senith failed to rctrnl it With
that craft for which golf bulls nre
fnmilinr it had hidden itself. The
plnjer dropped another ball nnd plnjed
along. .- lien the game wns oxer he
icturned home, passing the spot where
hip nan wns lost, not to look tor It,
but because thnt was the shortest wnv
back. He wns saying to himself, "fli!
nnd with a lost bnll nnd thnt bnd
iticit in tlie bunl.cr at No, 7 not bnd."
"There was a time when meadow, grove
and stream
The enith, nnd every common sight,
To me did seem
Apparelled in eeleMinl light "
AVhen, light in the spot where he nnd
his opponent nnd their two caddies had
sought it, there laj the lost golf ball.
You sec it was caught napping. It
lindn't figured on his r turning thnt
way and had come nut of hiillnir. There
aie limits to tlie intelligence of a golf
bnll even If it docs not seem so.
Thus the President plays his golf,
in momory. Thus he goc3 with Kents
"In Temple or the Vnlcs of Arcady"
and when tlie doctor stops his reading
he plenus, "nut l am hot on the trnil
of n follow who hns doue n terrible
crime. I'll catch him in the next
chapter, lou must not stop me now.
Far From (lie Singlo Track
Tar from the single trnck is all this;
far from tlie one big engrossing idea
(in which you spend voiirsclf utterlv.
among the simple things, in safe
variety, among the more primitive
emotions, getting back, ns In the
dietnry of tlie sick, to first principle.
"The world is too much with us:
Lnte or soon, getting nnd spending wci
jny waste our powers .
fircat CJod ! I'd rather be a pagan
Suckled in n creed outworn;
So might I standing on some pleasant
lea,
Have glimpses that would leave me less
forlorn ;
Have sight of Protcns rising from the
sen;
Or henr old Triton wind his wrnthed
horn."
It Is tho rest cure. Admirnl GrnTsnn
snjs so, It wns invented nnd made
fnmruis by n Philndelphlnti, Dr. S
Weir Mitchell, a neurologist and writer
of fiction. At first you nte not per
mittcd to stir a hand. President Wilson
protested nt first. "You poke fopd nt
me like n mother bird feeding her young,
nnd food I don't like, too."
And there were not even detective
stories in those dnjs, cither. Today the
President li far beyond the first stages
of the rest riirc. One advantage of
stopping ever thing is that the patient
is grateful fnr tlie llrst little pcrmtticn
exercises of the mind mid body. After
n peine conference "The Middle Temple
.Murder might seem poor ntisiiirss.
After nothing II seems mighty good
business. There is the boj's npiictlte.
Now the President sits up. rood is
no longer "poked nt" him. It Is n
great thing, that moving food toward
our own mouth for the hrst time, it
shows jou how real are the little satis
factions ou nan lorgouen niiii now nil
lent mo thcble things for whlili ou
almost threw nvvnj Hour' life. And the
President is now quite insistent at meal
time. H, 1 nnd 7 nre important hours.
It Is a good sign on which medical
opinion dwells,
There is another good sign. Tlie
President jokes with his incdlenl ad
visers'. When the doctor asked to
examine Ills pupils, reaching toward his
eyelids, he Mild "You'll huvc n hnrd
time. I've had many "
Doesn't quite put him in tin1 elas
with Charles Lamb with his pun on

Doctor ,(!rason savs thnt. He goes

In the sun on the White House poirh.

And of public business, Doctor (tin.von
or Mr. Tumulty present to him papers
that must receive his attention, Tlie
messages that have come out with his
name have been drawn up by others.
He studies them, lias tlie changes mnde

Thanksgiving Music
The very music itself will be cause for
thanksgiving, if it is the Re-Created
music that comes from the New
Edison "the phonograph with a
soul." This is the Re-Created music
that Edison spe-it $3,000,000 to per
fect the Re-Created music which 800,000 music
lovers have listened to in tone-tests between the liv
ing voices and the Re-Created music. Newspapers
sent their music critics to judge these startling tests.
They went to the tests cool, critical, impartial in
judgment.
Over 500 of them
have publicly declared
in the columns of their newspapers that it was impossible to dis
tinguish between the real and the Re-Created. Not a single news
paper critic has claimed to be able to detect a difference. They
have hailed Music's Re-Creation as a "new art."
Every New Edison is in a Period Cabinet
They begin with the graceful Heppelwhite at $155. Then fol
lows a Shdraton (sans inlay) at $195; a Jacobean in Oak at $250;
a Chippendale at $285 ; a William and Mary at $285 ; an inlaid
Sheraton at $300; a Louis XIV at $300 (all these are uprights).
An English XVIII Century at $450; an Italian at $450; and other
designs at greater prices running up to $6000.
