BRITISH MOVE TROOPS IN INDIA
IN READINESS FOR
EMERGENCY.
Loncion, March 26.—A Reuter des
patch from Delhi, British India, saya
it is common knowledge there that
troops are being moved into various
outlying districts owning to excite
ment caused by the non-co-operators,
and that military dispositions also are
being made in the Punjab, where dis
tinct signs of unrest are prevalent.
The despatch adds that up to the
present the imprisonment of Mohan
das K. Gandhi, the non-co-operationist
leader, has been the cause of very
little disturbance, but competent au
thorities believe trouble is brewing
and that the coming summer will
bring anxious times.
ALLIES TO LET TURKS REMAIN
IN EUROPE UNDER THEIR
SULTAN.
Paris, March 26.—The retention by
Turkey of Constantinople and a large
part of Eastern Thrace; the demili
tarization of the territories adjoining
the Straits of the Dardanelles, whether
allotted to Turkey or Greece, and that
an international commission shall at
tend to the upkeep of the straits, are
proposals made by the allied Foreign
Ministers after five days’ considera
tion of Near East questions.
TO EVACUATE SHANTUNG.
Japanese Withdrawal Set for Next
Month, Except Railway Guard.
Tsingtao, March 26.—“Japan in
tends to begin the troop evacuation of
Shantung early in April whether
China is ready or not,” said Major
General Yui, commander of the Tsing
tao garrison. “I have four battalions,
totaling 2,400 .men, of which a bat
talion and a half is in Tsingtao and a
half a battalion in Tsinan, with the
remaining two battalions distributed
along the railway. 1 will evacuate
two companies toward Japan, then
bring to Tsingato two companies off
the railway, and will repeat this pro
cess until the troops are relieved, but
will retain one and a half battalions
along the railway until they are super
seded by Chinese gjuards. Major Gen
eral Hikita of the chief staff is now in
Peking endeavoring to arrange de
tails.”
The statement of Major General Yui
makes clear the indefinite retention of
a small force, perhaps permanently,
because the Japanese interests are so
great along the line and hundreds of
thousands of people have poured into
the province since its seizure from
Germany.
Although withdrawing its troops,
Japan’continues indefinitely the opera
tion of the railway, even retaining
Japanese railway employes and train
operatives until the railway has been
wholly taken over.
HOURLY COST OF WAR TO GER
MANY 46 KILLED AND 109
WOUNDED.
Berlin, March 26.—Forty-six men
were kille(^ and 109 wounded on the
German side during every hour the
world war was raging, according to
an estimate arrived at by General von I
Altrock, a statistician. This estimate
was made from a study of official
records.
Germany’s losses totaled in dead
1,808,548 and in wounded 4,246,779.
Men to the number of 13,000,000 were
under arms during the course of the
war, of whom about one in seven was
killed in battle.
The officers’ corps lost 53,000 men
killed and 96,000 wounded. German
soldier and civilian losses through
death caused directly or indirectly by
the war are estimated by General von
Altrock at 12,000,000.
$5,000 FOR HORSE TRAINER,
$1,250 FOR SCHOOL TEACHER
Middletown, N. Y., March 26.—In a
lecture delivered in the high school at
Liberty last night the Rev. Dr. Newell
Dwight Hillis of Brooklyn declared
that this country had declined from
first place in education a few years
ago to ninth.
“I went to a race track up State,”
said he, “and found that the trainer
of a sorrel colt was getting $5,000 a
year. In the same community a
teacher with forty-two pupils was get
ting $1,250. At that rate the sorrel
colt was worth more than all the chil
dren in the town. That trainer was
paid more to get perspiration out of
that colt’s hide than was that teacher
to get inspiration out of those souls.”
INTERESTING BITS
The ossiphone is an invention of an
Englishman, S. G. Brocon. By press
ing this instrument against the wrist,
knuckles or any other bone, a person
can hear with his ears completely
stopped. The vibrations are transmit
ted to the inner ear without passing
through the medium of the outer ear.
This ought to be good news for, if
the ears are no longer needed to hear,
girls can wear as big ear puffs as they
like.
“Elevate the Pedestrain,” is becom
ing a popular slogan. There have been
subways and elevated railways; im
provements in the interest of the
street car and train . Now the poor
pedestrain is being considered and it is
suggested that the sidev/alks be ele
vated so that they are on level with
the second floor of the buildings. The
lower half of the city would be turned
over to automobiles; the streets would
be used for driving cars; and the low
er story of the buildings, for parking
cars. If carried out, this prospect
would mean a traffic revolution.
The most famous prize of he French
academy is the Gancount prize. This
year the coveted prize went to a ne
gro. Rene’ Maron. Maron writes
strange Vv^eird stories of the African
jungles. He protrays primitive tribal
life, its superstitions, sorcery, and
mythology. His description of nature
have rarely been excelled. Moran de
nounces the whites for their brutal
treatment of the negroes. The one
great criticism of Maron’s works is
that his moralizing, tho just is not
artistic.
Egypt is another country who have
a party, clamoring for immediate in
dependence. England has never de
sired to hold Egypt as a colony. The
British Prime Minister has announced
that the British protectorole over
Egypt is terminated. Egypt will now
be an independent state and martial
law will be withdrawn as soon as the
Egyptian government passes an in
deity act.
