Argument; ..-was concluded for the plaintiffs today; by JUdge W. P. By- num. of Greensboro, whose chief con tention was that the power to close the arteries of Interstate commerce to lawful articles of exchange which are not in themselves injurious to public health, morals or safety, is not pos sessed by Congres. and forcibly .to poets and artists, as well as to the hundred and ,one other individuals, with. eyes tosee its beau ty. What a list could be made of its lovers. those-who have painted it and praised it down the. centurres. Of course, it owes m.uch of its wonder to the Thames, to the breezes that bring the mists up from the ocean with ' the tides, to waft them over the houses, and much also to the smoke which the mists keep from rising on the windless days, for those are the days when color reaches its zenith. On windy days and on those other days, clear as crystal, which are among the sharp surprises of the London at mosphere, every detail In the street springs into startling prominence and the people walk in a rare transparency. Then the emblazonment of the omni bus, the fanfare of the big advertise ments, the coat of gay paint, used with a lavishness that formerly be longed only to Southern Europe, but conspicuous all over England today upon every door, window box or ohard ing that offers an opportunity, be come too evident, and each cornice, spire, tower and chimney raps out sharply on a hard blue sky. Then London loses her mystery. Deprived of her silver drapery of mist she no longer presents poetic statements, but clear facts; her sensitive moods are wholly atmosphere; her cadences come with the vapors and hazes that drift in over the Essex marshes and Epping Forest from the sea.

JUDGE BOND'S DECISION IS CAUSE OF ELATION Washington, August 31. Senators and representatives who are in Wash ington today are elated over the de cision of . Judge Boyd at Greensboro to day declaring the Keating Child Labor law unconstitutional. Senator Over man, one of the strongest supporters of those who fought the passage of the "bill, said tonight that he was not surprised at the decision. "I have always contended, said the senator, "that the law would be held unconstitutional. Judge Boyd's de cision today confirms the belief I have had at all times.'r - Official n of the npnartmsnt of Jna. tice were visibly disappointed. Theyl had believed all along that the law would be upheld by the courts and only last week sent for District At torney W. C Hammer and allowed him additional counsel to defend the case. Of course, the department will take the case to the Supreme Court of the United States, but In the meantime the old law allowing the children to be worked in cotton mills will be con tinued. It may take years for the case to get before the ' Supreme Court, though it is believed the Department of Justice will ask that the case be advanced so that the test case may be disposed of speedily. The Keating law would never have become a law but for the pressure brought to bear on Congress by Presi dent Wilson. The Keating bill was passed through the House without a dissenting vote except those cast by the North Caro lina delegation and those members from South Carolina find two members north of the : Mason and . Dixon line. The decision of the; court today -Ib, therefore, a MXoyr to the vast majority of congressmen and senators who sup ported the measure. Representative Webb, of Shelby, was one of the North Carolina congress men who went the limit against the bill. His argument has always been that the measure ' Was unconstitution al and he devoted nearly eight hours to a speech in the House bitterly at tacking the measure on the grounds that it was unconstitutional. P. R. A. WHERE DOGS ARE MENACE. Night Travelers in Macedonia Carry Arms for Protection. Everywhere are the dogs in Mace donia. In - this . country of shepherds every peasant's cottage has a meving fringe of dogs. I rithe east the dog is neitner lea nor petted, so that he feels himself outcast and despised. During this war one orray and then the other has swept over Northern Macedonia, driving the peasants before them. The dogs have been left behind. At night one hears the mhowling on the deso late hills. The tainted breeze that comes d6wn the valley hints at the ghastly food on which they live. By day every man shoots a every dog save the few that cling close to an inhabited onttno-o They slink, coyote fashion, behind rocks. At night one hears their feet paddling behind him on the lonely roads. Their eyes shine in the flare of the electric torch. Every one carries arms in Macedonia at night, not against man. but as a protection against the dogs. THE RIVER SERETH TELLING IT IN MICHIGAN. LONDON AND ITS COLORS. Reporter Seemed Much Impressed By Wedding Ceremony. (Dafter CoTres. of the Soo Times.) A the home of the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Duncan Arnott, where the pearl of sunshine ever rests, had the honor to greet the happy occasion of an affectionate marriage between Mr. David Morrow, of Donaldson, and Miss Pearl Arnot.t. The Rev. Archi bald S. Kerr performed the ceremony with the new and ever increasing Pres byterian order, pronounced by all most effective. After, the many con gratulations of a large circle of friends from the city and other points who were glad to be here to witness the notable event, and who had consider able trouble to push their way for ward to shake hands with the man who was fortunate emgh to posses merchandise to buy the pearl whose price is above rubies. The Times joins in hearty congratulations, along with friends, for long life and prosperity. The River Sereth, one of the Impor tant lines of advance for the Austro German forces on the eastern front, is described in the following war geog raphy bulletin issued by the National Geographio Society: "Rising in the Carpathians, 40 miles southwest of Czernowitz, the Sereth is one of the 'principal waterways of the Austrian crownland of Bukowina. Taking a northeasterly direction from Its source, the stream describes a wide loop to' a point a few miles below Czer nowitz, then, turning to the southeast it v traverses the Roumanian province of Moldavia, finally entering the Dan ube a few miles south of the great commercial and shipping center, Ga latz. "The total length of the Sereth is nearly 350 miles, and it has numerous tributaries from the west. Including the Suczawa, Bistritsa, Trotus and Milkov, but only the Berlat from: the east. "The Sereth is of peculiar interest from a military standpoint because of the unique defenses, known as the Sereth Line, constructed by Rumania in 1889-1892 at a cost of more than five and a half million dollars. These military works embrace the principles of a Prussian engineer, Lieut. Col. Maximilian Schumann, who conceived the idea of a system of defenses which would eliminate entirely the necessity for forts and for infantry supports. His reliance was upon the fire of pro tected guns. "Rum n nla nrinnAq v. a . niw ojotciu ana put it to the test on the line from wnicn a Russian invasion might be ex pected. There are three points on the northeastern front where a Russian army could cross the Sereth the bridge heads at Focshani, Nemolassa and Galatz. The Sereth Line runs from Galatz to Focshani, a distance of 45 miles east and west. Focshani is the most strongly fortified point, with 71 batteries arranged on a semicircular front of 12 miles a a distance of 3,000 to 10,000 yards in advance of the bridge head. The immediate defense of these batteries of quick firing guns and mortars placed in armored cupolas consists of a glacis planted with thorn bushes and wire entanglements. "All these elaborate and costly de fenses are now considered practically obsolete after only 25 years, because there is no provision made for the em ployment of infantry against the in vaders. Furthermore these batteries are so placed as to ward off an attack the present crisis, inasmuch as they are so placed a sto ward off an attack of a Russian army,, but do not take into account the possibility of an Aus-tro-German enemy. "The Schumann 'armored fronts' sys tem probably never again will be em ployed to guard its frontiers against invasion. The Sereth Line is mnm, ment to the impractical in war de- ienses.
