WEDNESDAY EVENING,
Arabic Passengers File
Claim Upon Germany
Special to The Telegraph
Buffalo, N. Y„ Sept. 15.—Formal
claim against Germany for indemnity
has been tiled with Secretary of State
Lansing by Philip D. Collier and his
wife, Maybelle, of this city.
They lost all their possessions in the
sinking of the Arabic, upon which
they were passengers.
IT PAYS TO STACK WHEAT
Recent heavy rains created flood
conditions in many sections of the
Middle West. There has been a great
deal of wheat destroyed. One farmer
In this neighborhood had fifteen hun
dred dollars' worth of wheat shocks
washed away. There is another wheat
field within half a mile of this office
where about fifteen or twenty per
cent, of the shocks are scattered and
mud soaked—worthless for market
purposes.
The farmers _who lost this wheat,
and thousands of other farmers who
have lost grain by reason of the wet
weather, were waiting to thrash from
the shock. Next year, they say, they
will haul the wheat to the high
ground and stack it. Maybe they will,
and maybe, like the immortal Ben
Puttin-It-Off, they will just wait from
day to day. until It is too late.
It pays to stack wheat.—Farm Life.

AERIAL TORPEDO 13
EFFECTIVE WEAPON
Germans Have Powerful Death-
Dealing Machine Which Is
Seven Feet Long
I The fear of overwhelming attacks
j from the air, which prevailed among
| the allied nations at the outbreak of
the war and until recenty, when the
comparative ineffectiveness of the Zep
i pelins seemed demonstrated, is likely
| to be revived and the terrifying pow
er of these monster airships fully real
ized if the reports relating to the new
aerial torpedo perfected by the Ger
mans prove to be true. The Septem
ber Popular Mechanics Magazine, in
an illustrated article, says:
"The accounts of the operation of
these torpedoes read like the fantastic
tales with which readers were regaled
before the great war became a reality.
In many respects the torpedo resem
bles a submarine torpedo and is said
to possess all its destructive power.
It is equipped with a delicate wire
less apparatus that controls its pro
pelling and steering mechanism, and
through this every movement of the
torpedo is controlled by the powerful
wireless waves sent out from the Zep
pelin. As it speeds toward the tar
get the torpedo can be ste'ered up or
down or horizontally at the will of
the operator. In practice it is simply
propelled to a point directly above
the object to he destroyed and is
then turned verticaly downward and
dropped like an ordinary bomb.
"The new torpedo is said to be about
seven feet in length and to have a
war head like that of a submarine
torpedo. In order to allow It to pene
trate a roof or other obstruction be
fore exploding, the war head is equip
ped with a time fuse that delays the
explosion for a few seconds after the
impact. Carried in the body of the!
torpedo is from 100 to 150 pounds of
high expolsive, enough to cause great
havoc, especially when exploded with
in an inclosure such as a building.
The torpedo is driven by two pro
pellers at the stern and is sustained
in the air by two propellers working
on vertical axes and placed fore and
aft under the body. By means of an
arrangement of fins and rudders It is
kept from capsizing in the heaviest
winds. It is lr lieved that the propel
lers and other mechanism are operat
ed by compressed air.
"While this torpedo can doubtless
be made enormously more effective
than a bomb that is simply dropped,
it has one serious limitation when
launched from an airship against for
tifications or warships. To be safe
from the fire of antiaircraft guns the
airship must either be at a consider
able distance from the target or at a
great height from the ground. In
either case it would be extremely dif
ficult to determine when the torpedo
was anywhere near a point directly
above the target. In spite of this,
however, the Germans have apparent
ly provided themselves with an ex
cesdingly effective weapon of offense
in this torpedo."
A SIGN OF THE TIMES
' It's the same old gospel, but there's
a new type of preacher, according to
Secretary Halpin, of the Wisconsin
Country Life Conference. Five years
ago the word "farmer" was seldom
heard at any theological seminary. All
preachers were prepared for city
churches, and educated to the needs
of city people.
Recent surveys have shown, how
ever, that the rural population fur
nishes a large proportion of the
church membership, and pastors are
being trained especially for rural serv
ice.
Time is almost here when the elo
quent, ambitious and bright young
minister will be willing to remain In
the country, refusing to be bought
away by some city congregation.—

MISS JEAN WEBSTER
New Yoijk, Sept. 15. Miss Jean
Webster, lady novelist and playwright,
whose 'Daddy Long-Legs" has de
lighted thousands in both book and
play form is to be married to Glenn
Ford McKinney, lawyer, next Tues
day. But Miss Webster is too busy

THE HORSE—VALUE OF THE
THOROUGHBRED
The best thing about horse racing,
however, is not that it gives amateur
gamblers a chance to exercise their
guessing ability, but that it enables the
horse to show what he can do when
well trained and fit for the contest.
After all the stench of gasoline it is
pleasant to recall that the horse Is
still with us to charm and to inspire.
The man who does not thrill at the
sight of a satin-coated thoroughbred
in action should have his nerves ex
amined. The wires are down some
where. Incidentally, it is worth while
to note that every great improvement
in horseflesh outside the purely draft
strains has come from the infusion of
thoroughbred blood. Kill racing and
you have destroyed the great Incentive
for the breeding of thoroughbreds.—
September Outing.
A NEWER DAIRY QUEEN
The crowned heads of history never
changed so rapidly as those of the
dairy world. No sooner do we hail a
new queen, and get used to spelling
her name, than she becomes a back
number. The latest breaker of world's
records is a Holsteln cow. Flnderne
Pride Johanna Rue, owned by the
Somerville, N. J., Holstein Breeders
Company, and tested out by New Jer
sey Agricultural College.
This remarkable five-year-old cow
gave 28,403 pounds of milk, testing
1,176.47 pounds of butter, in a year.
She averaged a little over nine gallons
of milk a day. This milk, If sold at
the big city retail price of 4 cents a
pint, would have brought over a thou
sand dollars in money.
Breeding tells. The new champion
comes of a famous family.—Farm
Life.
DANGEROUS JOBS
"One man's meat is another man's
poison," says an old proverb, while
another asserts that one can get used
to anything. Both these axioms are
doubtless true, but we venture to think
that few of our readers would-care to
seek employment at any of the series
of hazardous occupations described in
this interesting article. Nevertheless,
as the author points out, there is no
lack of recruits; the risks run seem
to attract just the right type of man.
Something <ff the spirit of that
hypothetical sailor who pitied the
poor folks on shore during a howling
gale is found in the breasts of most
men who earn their daily bread at the
risk of life and limb, writes F. Clayton
Terriss in the September Wide World
Magazine. It is, perhaps, a legacy of
savage days that the dangers which
can be met by quickness of eye and
foot and hand always find men to
face them even with delight.
The readiness and courage display
ed by steeplejacks is often beyond
praise. Two men were working on a
scaffolding on a churchsteeple, and at
one point It became necessary for one
of them to stand on the other's should
ers in order to reach a part of the
work.
Suddenly the pot of molten lead h«
wot-' "Tying was tipped over by some
pre in. and a quantity of the boil
ing tal dropped on the shoulders
of the man below. The pain was as
excuciating as it was unexpected, and
It must have been very difficult for the
victim to refrain from the start which
would have precipitated both men
into the street far below. But refrain
ho did; moreover, he held his ground
until his mate could clamber down on
to the platform again and help him
away to the relief which he so badly
needed. An act like that requires
heroism of a very high order.
A FATHER MHO HAD TO TAKE HIS
HAT OFF TO HIS SON
In the September American Maga
zine appears a remarkable article en
titled. "Youth Leads the Way." which
gives an account of the tremendous re
cent advances In agriculture which are
directly attributed to the work of
corn clubs, and other agricultural clubs
throughout the United States. In the
article appears a brief story of Jerry
Moore, of South Carolina, who, at the
age of 15, became world champion corn
grower. How Jerry's achievement af
fected another boy is told in the fol
lowing extract from the article;
"Dr. Bradford Knapp. who succeeded
his late father as head of the Farm
Demonstration Service, tells another
story of a reluctant parent: A freckle
faced South Carolinan of the Young
Generation type teased for an acre of
emulate Jerry Moore. But the father
thought there was some trick hack of
Jerry's achievement. He at last con
sented to allow the boy to grub an acre
near a forest, pull the stumps, remove
the stones, and work it.
"When the crop was harvested, the
boy's measured eighty bushels, and the
old man's, adjoining, measured only
eight! 'Ever since then,' says Doctor
Knapp. 'the old man has been going to
farmers' institutes with that boy, slt-

Falls 107 Feet, but
Pneumonia Kills Him
St. Louis, Mo., Sept. 16.—The coro
j ner and his post mortem physician
yesterday decided that the death of
Louis Bauer, who fell 107 feet down
1 a quarry Monday, was due to lobar
| pneumonia.
Bauer had been suspected of drop
ping off over the edge intentionally.
| An examination of his body showed
j no broken bones and only a slight
i bruise on one of his hands. His left
lung had been almost destroyed by
pneumonia.
Bauer was dead when persons who
had seen his fall reached his side. He
undoubtedly died while in midair, phy
sicians said.
VACATION FOR LANSING

greatly in need of recuperation from
the effects of the mental and physical
strain to which he has been subjected
ever since he succeeded Secretary
Bryan last June.

I report numbers of concrete Instance
jln which patients gained In vltnllty

I Doctors agree that in tuberculosis
lowered vitality and lost energy must
be overcome.
: One of the constituents of Eckman's
! Alterative is calcium (lime), in such
i combination with other valuable in
gredients as to be easily assimilated by
the average person. To this, in part,
is due Its success in the treatment of
tuberculosis—a service which even some
ethical practitioners have acknowledged
to their patients. We make no whole

no opiates, narcotics or habit-forming
drugs, a trial Is safe. From your drug

NUXATED IRON
j In Nervous "Knu Dorm" Conditions—
Free Prescription by Dr. Sauer
Most weak, pale, nervous, rundown
people fool themselves Into thinking
they are graining- strength by taking
stimulating medicines or narcotic drugs,
or by drinking large quantities of
striyig tea or coffee, which whip up
then- vital powers for the moment, may
be at the expense of their lives later
on. Give your poor, starving blood cor
puscles plenty of blood food—iron—and
you can throw liquors and stimulating
medicines to the wind. Two five-grain
tablets of ordinary nuxated iron taken
three times per day after meals will
often give most surprising physical
and mental power In one or two weeks'
time.—E. Sauer. M. D.
NOTE Nuxated Iron recommended
above by Dr. Sauer, is one of the newer
organic iron compounds. Unlike the
older inorganic iron products, it is eas
ily assimilated, does not Injure the
teeth, make them black, nor upset the
stomach; on the contrary, it is a most
potent remedy, in nearly all forms of
indigestion, as well as for nervous,
run-down conditions. It Is dispensed in
this city by all leading druggists.—Ad
