Should it prove to be correct, the United States undoubtedly will send to the Ottoman government one oi the sharpest notes dispatched from Washington to a foreign power since the European war began. In the opin ion of many persons it would be to all intents and purposes an ultimatum, demanding of Turkey under threat of an immediate severance of diplomatic relations, a prompt disavowal, pun ishment of the commander responei- ble, reparation and assurances for the future. Through the good offices of the Unit ed States the German, Austrian, Tur kish and Bulgarian consuls in Sa lonika, who have been held under ar rest by the allies on board a French warship in the harbor, are to be re leased. King Nicholas has fled from Mon tenegro and has landed in Italy on hij way to Lyons. The defense of the country has been left entirely to Prince Mirko, General Voukotitch, the former premier, and General Mar tinovitch. Austro-Hungarian troops have occu pied the important town of Scutari, in northern Albania, according to a Stefani News agency dispatch from Athens. Austrian occupation of Montenegrc virtually was comp.leted with the taking of the Adriatic coast towns of Antlv&ri and Duloigno. In the in terior, the disarming of Montenegrin soldiers is proceeding, according to advioes from Teutonic sources. The compulsory service bill of the ministry was presented in the British house of lords after having passed its third reading in the house of com mons by a vote of 383 to 36. French air squadrons made im portant raids on Monastir and Giev geli, according to a dispatch from Sa lonika to ReuteFs Telegram company. Taking advantage of the bright moonlight, a hostile aeroplane swept over the east coast of Kent. After dropping nine incendiary bombs in rapid succession the aeroplane disap peared out over the North sea. One man was killed and two men, a woman and three children were in jured. A second attack, this time by two hostile seaplanes, was made on the Kent coast later. No casualties havs been reported. The raiders escaped. Heavy fighting occurred on Friday and Saturday between the British army that is attempting to reach Ku' el-Am ara in Mesopotamia and the Turks. The battle took place at Ess in. seven miles from The British were unable to drive the Turk from their positions. The Russians who originally fought the Turks on a limited area in the Caucasus have inflicted several crush ing defeats upon the Turks since Grand Duke Nicholas took the chi~f command. They have transferred the momentum of their offensive over the Caucasian border into Armenia, wherft they are now attacking Erzerum, an important city in the Interior. Russian columns operating in Persia have occupied the town of Sultanabad, 150 miles southwest of Teheran and about an equal distance northwest of Ishpahan. The garrison and the Ger man consul have fled to Bouroudjir. fifty miles west of Sultanabad. News reaching Rome is to the effect that the Germans have concentrated 8,000 automobiles in Constantinople which are destined for rapid trans portation of a Turco-German expedi tion to Bagdad. Capture by the Germans of an allied position 260 yards long to the north of Arras was announced by the Ger man war office. The Austrians have occupied the Adriatic seaports of Antlvari and Dul cigno. The urgent necessity of speeding up the supply of munitions has de termined Great Britain to put into force immediately plans for the dilu tion of skilled labor with semi skilled, unskilled and female workers in all controlled establishments. • • OPPORTUNITY. - Every day brings to our door •* something that is good to do and 7 *• that it never will come our way •• • .. to do again.

The oldest mathematic book In the world is believed to be the "Papyrus Rhind" in the British museum, pro fessed to have been written by Ahmes, a scribe of King Ra-a-us. about the period between 2000 and 1700 B. C. This "Papyrus Rhind'" was translated by Eisenlohr of Leipzig, and it was found to contain a rule for making a square equal in area to a given circle. It was not put forth as an original dis covery, but as the transcript of a treatise 500 years old; r still, which sends us back to approximately 2500 B. C., when Egyptian mathematicians solved, or thought they had solved, the problem of squaring the circle. The Great Eastern. The dimensions of the one time world famous Great Eastern were as fol lows: Lepgth. 602 feet; width, 83 feet; depth, 60 feet; tonnage, 24,000 tons; draft when unloaded, 20 feet; when loaded, 30 feet. She had paddle wheels fifty-six feet in diameter and was also provided with a four bbided screw pro peller of twenty-four feet diameter. She had accommodations for 800 first class, 2,000 second class and 1,200 third class passengers, 4,00<t In all. Her speed was about eighteen miles an hour. The Great Eastern was finally broken up for old iron in the year 1889 after a checkered eareer of some thirty-one years. All Wrong. The popular actor had become a sol dier.

The Hungarian crown worn at their accession by the emperors of Austria as kings of Hupgary is the identical one made for Stephen and used at his coronation over SOO years ago. The whole is of pure gold, except the set tings, and weighs almost exactly four teen pounds. The settings above allud ed to consist of fifty-three sapphires, fifty rubies, one emerald and 338 pearls. It will be noticed that there are no diamonds among these precious adornments. This is accounted for by the oft quoted story of Stephen's aver 6ion to sueh gems because he consid ered them "unlucky." A False Alarm. "I know something, I do, about a member of this family," said little Bobby Slithers triumphantly to his old er sister, Maud. "Oh, dear!" exclaimed Miss Slithers. "Half a dollar is all I have, Bobby. Will you promise not to tell If I give you that?" "Sure, I will," answered Bobby in surprise. "But it ain't nothin' on you. sis. It was the cook and the {ceiuun." —Birmingham Age-Herald. Nothing New. "I see," said Eilkins, "that a French scientist has discovered a method tor staving off old age." "Well, what of It?" demanded Wil klns. "There's nothing new in that. A man can stare off old age by jumping off the Eiffel tower, or dropping a lighted match In a powder barrel while sitting on It or by rocking the boat when he's out in the water, or by rid ing over Niagara falls sitting astride of a log. Those French scientists make me tired with their hullabaloo over nothing."—Harper's Weekly.
