BLACK STRIP A NEW SOURCE OF GIA'CERINE Washington, Pasteur discovered that a small quantity of glycerine developed in the fermentation of sugar and that it was traceable in wine and beer. The chemist, there fore, fermented sugars and molasses with yeast, and from the mash thus obtained produced the glycerine. Several largo concerns are making alcohol from cheap molasses brought ftom the YY'est Indies, This molasses, which is uneatable, is known as "black strap." The internal revenue commission of the treasury depart ment chemists have been able, how ever, so to use the residue that they get glycerine.

DRINKING GUEST'S HEALTH I The custom of drinking the health of the most popular IiTTTn at the table has its foundation in the ancient prac tice originated by the Greeks and adopted by the Romans of drinking to the gods. The Greeks and Romans later began the practice of drinking to each other, and from tills arose the custom of toasting living mV.i. But heaitli drink ing in its more modern meaning* dales from the days of Charles 11, begins with the custom of drinking to the ladies or to any woman who happened to bo reigning belle of the court. Many and various were the quaint customs associated with the toasts of those days. For example, in certain companies of military officers eti quette demands that the cup should be passed from hand to hand. In many midnight gatherings of Alsatia, gallants stabbed themselves in order to drink with their blood the health of the woman on whom their hearts were set. —Detroit News. INQUISITION WAS MILD BESIDE RUSSIAN ORGY Fathers Murder Children to SaY'c Tlicm From Tortures of Bolshevists; Officers' Straps Nailed to Their Shoulders Special Correspondence 1 i I .on* lon Official revelation of | barbarities more revolting than any j conceived during the Inquisition, is i contained in a collection of reports by British diplomatic representa i tives in Russia, compiled to por ; tray the conditions in that country | during the Bolshevist regime of the I last two years, which has just been | presented to Parliament by com t mand of His Majesty King George. 1 The collection includes photo [ graphs of unnaniahle atrocities and , tlie descriptions of the cruelties and I atrocious practices, the murder, j rapine, chaos and. starvation that ' has prevailed in the distorted j country since the rise of Bolshevism ! are officially attested in all cases by I competent witnesses. Cumulative evidence is presented : that a common practice during the j early days of the regime was the wreaking of vengeance upon officers ; of the Russian army by nailing the i shoulder straps signifying their j rank to their shoulders. Instances of official medical proof that bodies | found terribly mutilated on battle . fields had been subjected to the I atrocities before life was extinct are j cited in several of the reports eom | prising the collection. Germans Started Bolshevism Undoubtedly," says None from a British chaplain who watched the advance of Bolshevism in the chaotic country, "I he rapidly accumulating horrors were deliberately incited by the secret German Bolshevist agents in order that the advancing Aus trian armies might not be met as j foes, but welcomed as deliverers j coming to save the people from a I tvranny more brutal than anything Russia had previously known. The scheme was entirely successful, the | Austrian troops being received as saviors." Terrible in their description of the I suffering to which their authors were subjected are letters included from British and Russian subjects made prisoners by the Bolshevists during the process of or shortly aft er their ascension to power. Un imaginable cruelties and indignities wore heaped upon these prisoners, many of whom were made captive for no tangible offense to the chaotic government, and a majority of whom eventually succumbed to pri vation. lack of food* and the un speakable conditions they were forced to endure. Since the inception of the reign of Red terror in Moscow unnumbered thousands have been done to death by one form or another of inhuman murder in that city alone, as is set | forth in the report of a Secret Serv- I ice man who left that horror-rid den city December 1, 1918. Reports of Conditions The report says: "I can say that the number of people that have been coldly done to death in Moscow is enormous. Many thousands have been shot, but lately those condemned io death were 1 hung instead, and that in a most | brutal manner. They were taken out ' in batches in the early hours of the morning to a place on the outskirts of the town, stripped of their shirts and then hung one by one by being drawn up at the end of a rope until their feet were a few inches from the ground and then left to die. The work was done by Mongolian i soldiers. Shooting was too noisy and not sure enough. Men have crawled away after a volley and others have been buried while still alive. I was told in Stockholm by one of the representatives of tlie Esthonian government that 15 Russian officers who were taken prisoners at Pskoff by the Red Guards wore given over to the Mongolian soldiers who sawed tliem to pieces." In the Ural towns a similar record of inhumanity, blood lust and atro city lias been established by the Reds, as shown by this extract from a report of the consul at Ekaterin burg under date of January 14, 1919: "Officers taken prisoners by Bol shevists here have had their shoul der straps nailed into their shoul ders, girls have been raped, some of the civilians have been found with their eyes pierced out. others with out noses, while twenty-five priests were shot at Perm. Bishop Adron lok having been buried alive there." And so through the voluminous pages of the sixty-one reports com prising the collection occur any number of absolutely authenticated instances of the degeneracy into which those sections of Russia dominated by the Reds have fallen. While many of the most revolting portrayals are based on occurrences during the early days of the Red regime, it is indicated that the con dition has not to this time abated to any extent that would justify tlio faintest hope of salvation for the lavished country until order is es tablished through some agency other than the Red government. A lefort from an agent who left Petrograd during the latter days of 19IS sets forth that the carnage in (he hig towns has somewhat abated of late because of Renine's "personal dislike for Red terrorism," but that it is continuing in most of the. provinces and in some is actually on the increase. Outrages at Perm The following is from an account of investigations into Bolshevist ac tivities at Perm, which was sub milted as late as March 7, this year: "Victims were frequently forced to dig their own graves. Sometimes ttie, executioners placed them fac ing a wall and fired several revol ver shots from behind tliem, near their ears, killing them after a con siderable interval. "Girls, aged women and women enceintes were among the victims. The case of Miss Bakouyeva is an example. December, 1918, this nine teen-year-old girl was accused of espionage and tortured by being slowly pierced thirteen times in the same wound with a bayonet. She was afterward found still living by pel Hants, is now nearly cured and has herself related her sufferings to us." It stems inconceivable that any pretense of government known to have perpetrated any portion of tlie outrages authenticated to the Red powers in Ru-sia could exist for an fpprtviable time in a country of even tlie rawest civilization. This theory of Bolshevist perseverance is advanced by Mr. Linley, an agent of the British government, who ha 3 given the matter deep study and broad investigation, in a letter writ ten from Archangel, November 27, 1918, to Mr. Balfour, British Secre tary of i oreign Affairs. The piincipal reason why the Bolshevists have lasted so long is their unlimited supply of paper money, erd I venture to recommend that paitieular attention he paid to tins side of tlie problem. Tills paper money enables tliem not only to pay their way in Russia, but to build up \ credits abroad, which are to be used ! to produce chaos in every civilized | country. It is the lirst time in IPs- ' tory that an anarchist society ha| unlimited resources." Kill Children to Save Sufl'criiig So serious lias become the predic ament of the inhabitants of the stricken sections of Russia, that peasants in many instances put their children to death rather than risk incurring the enmity of the irre sponsible government and seeing its vengeance wreaked 011 their off spring, or in preference to awaiting ihe starvation that in some prov inces is almost inevitable to tlie peasant class. This horrible anec dote is from the personal experi ence of one of the Hritish agents in 1: ussia. "I was conducting a funeral in (lie mortuary of a lunatic asylum at "udelnaiu. near Petrograd, and saw the bodies of a mother and five children whose throats had been cut by the husband and lather because he could not see them suffer. "The cruelty of the soldiers in the locality is unspeakable. The father ef one of the clerks in the Vauxhall motor works was bound, laid on a railway line and cut to pieces by a locomtive on suspicion of having set lire to some of his own property. In August last two barge loads of Rus sian officers were sunk and their i odies washed up on the property of a friend of mine in the Gulf of Fin land, many lashed together in twos and threes with pieces of barbed wire." All the investigations upon which the reports of the agents are based •>vi.* e consummated under tlie most trying conditions and in most in stances at the risk of life itself. The reports are amplified with numerous tn'crviews with British subjects so fortunate as to have escaped from Russia after witnessing the suffer ings and deaths of many of their count rymen. 64th Anniversary Is Observed by Church Nearly the entire congregation of J the Capital Street Presbyterian' j Chureli attended the celebration of j Hie sixty-fourth anniversary of the | Sabbath school connected with that I church, which was held last cvcn- I ing in the church auditorium, j An interesting program was ren- Idcred and consisted of the following f numbers: Prayer, by the Rev.

ITALY'S SENATE GIVES 1 VOTE OF CONFIDENCE , [Continued on First Page.] I at the "conference. Up until April j 14 when he received from President 1 Wilson the American viewpoint on j Fiume, he said he thought an agree ment was probable. In the course of his address', the 1 Premier spoke of the attitude taken at Paris by the British and French governments, which he said had | been loyal to promises made in the treaty of London, which was framed lin 191 r.. lie admitted, however, that | both France and Great Britain do [not stand with Italy in her demands 1 for the annexation of Fiume. He I in principle, to the creation of Flume added that they might have agreed, as an independent free state. In | discussing the American memoran dum, which was handed to him on April 14 and which was distributed among the members of parliament to-day by the Premier, Signor Or lando said:- , Unable to Agree "Inasmuch as this meiJlorandum denied Italy's rights over the Dal matian islands, accorded only incom plete liberty to Fiume and even went so far as to break up the unity of Istria, 1 told Mr. Wilson it was absolutely impossible for me to agree to peace on the conditions indicated. I added that, under such conditions, the Italian delegation felt it could not continue to participate in the conference with any benefit for oth ers or dignity for Italy, but said I would communicate with representa tives of the Allied powers with which Italy was bound by special agree ments. "President Wilson showed great regret for such a hypothesis, adding ho would do everything possible to prevent, it. He said lie thought it .opportune and useful tlnit France and England should undertake to t find a means of conciliation while lie would have the question re-ex amined by his experts to see if fur ther concessions could he made to Italian aspirations. The Italian dele gation did not maintain an obstinate attitude but co-operated during the following days in efforts to find a • way of conciliation. It was anxious not to delay peace and"to avoid com promising the union of the Allied peoples, even by a mere appearance of disagreement. It was continuing patiently lo seek a means of con ciliation and was discussing the sub ject with the British premier when the Presidential message appeared. Fact Grave to Italians "This new fact seemed to the Ital ian delegation of enormous gravity, as it made public a dissension which until then, although deep, was con lined inside the conference. Besides making statements addressed to the . sentiment and will of peoples in gen eral, and, therefore, to the Italian people, the full authority and pres tige of the Italian delegates was doubted just in the grave and deci sive hour when it was most needed." Addressing himself to the atti tude of Italy at the Peace Confer ence and the justice of her demands, the Premier continued: Motive For Italy's Appcnl "Italy did not measure her sacri fices by the letter of her treaty with | the Allied powers and did not ask for help when she had to withstand the shock of the Austrian army, as she might have done under the treaty. Therein she only did her duty las the Allies have done, but that fact transformed friendship into blood fellowship and it was in that sense that Italy appealed to the Al lies' peoples and governments. "The question of Flume was not first brought forward by Italy, but by a thrilling act of spontaneous ; will which began with the declara tion of Flume's representative in the Hungarian Parliament, and which was subsequently confirmed when Fiume proclaimed herself an Italian town. Can our great nation remain inert and unmoved by the vehement and despairing appeal of this peo ple whose blood is of our blood? N'o! Italy does not need to put for ward a formal thesis In support of her demands, feeling sure that vio lence will not be done to the will of this Italian town." Premier Orlando reiterated that the treaty of London did not pre vent the Allies from considering the Fiume question from the Italian view and that, moreover, the Allies had admitted they were in no wise bound regarding Fiume, since they considered themselves capable of agreeing to the freedom of the city. Alliance to Be Maintained "It is our desire and firm re solve," ho said, "that the alliance shall not be broken up. We wish to remain loyal to it for the sake of the solemn pledge which binds our word of honor, but still more for New U. S. Wheat Director Who Believes Five-cent > Loaf Will Not Come Back JULIUS H. BARNES That the five-cent loaf of bread not only will not come back this year but probably never will conie back, is the opinion of Julius H. Barnes, newly appointed United States Wheat Direc tor. He predicts a drop in the price of wheat within the next two months, since it is now above the figure guar anteed to the producers by the Gov ernment, but be explained that wheat would have to drop 25 per cent, in price to bring the cheaper loaf. Mr. Barnes will administer the $1,000,000,- 000 appropriated by Congress to take cure of the 1019 crop under the guar anteed price. 19 the holiness of blood shed in a com mon cause." After paying tribute to all the al lied soldiers, the Premier continued: "The Allies of yesterday must be the Allies of to-day, and all thcit peoples, above all the American peo ple. who sacrificed themselves for the victory of an ideal, must remain at the helm together in the tie of loyal friendship. "Obeying the supreme command of the Italian government and realizing the solemnity of the hour I affirm before this Parliament that Italy is animated by all that spirit of conciliation which is compatible with the unavoidable exigencies of national conscience and dignity. With the same sincerity, I say that 1 cannot determine this difficult mo ment in what forms or by what means we can reach that object be cause in the last solemn conversa tion that occurred on April 24 there arose a difference, not only regard ing our point of view but also be tween that of our Allies and our as sociated power. Faces Difference of Opinion "Therefore, in the present state of affairs, Italy is not facing a solution in which the Allied und associated governments agree with an Insur mountable measure of agreement, Nor is there a proposal of compro mise upon which all are agreed, but instead she is facing a difference of opinion which virtually denies thu actual possibility that special ter ritorial conditions reserved to Italy can be contained in the peace treaty accepted by all the Allied and as sociated powers. "The members of the government and of the Italian delegation, there fore, await your verdict with serene hearts. With serene hearts the peo ple also await events. They wlic kept their faith unshakcable, their nerves firm and sound, their soul firm and their spirits high, "even when the appalling misfortune of war fell upon them—why should they feel or act differently now when facing difficulties, which, while certainly hard, are bringing about peace? Without weakenss, without overboldness, not overcome with doubts which would be injurious, nor carried away by an exaltation unworthy of a great people, Italy in this new trial must show conscious and astere calm. 1 Meads Truce Continuance. "The principal necessity now is that all, in devotion to mother coun try, should determine with sincerity and harmony, to faco the outcome of tills great battle which faith | might have spared us. Once again, I plead that in this hour of immense responsibility for all, the truce may continue between men's differences and the conflicts of parties. Let us wait until to-morrow to renew our struggles. They will be illuminated by the glory of a greater Italy." Hlltll VKTERANS OF WAR TO HK. HONORKD ON RETURN j Washington. D, C., —General Per shing is sending back lo this country about 300 pigeons which took part in the world war. The bird veterans will be exhibited in the pigeon sec tion of the signal corps of the army in Potomac Park, near Washington. The pigeons made brilliant records with the American expeditionary forces. They are now on the seas in care of their own officers. On their arrival in New York they will be met with due honors. Among the pigeons expected is the sole survivor of the twenty or more homers set loose by Whittlesey, of the "Lost Battalion,", when, as he said, the series of runners dispatched to tell of his plight "fell in their courses." There are survivors of the inferno at St. Mihiel, when 320 hom ers kept open the line for the tanks and contributed to that victory. There are some from the woods of Belleau and from Chateau-Thierry.
