TRY WAR LORDS
IN OUR COURTS,
GERMANSTLEA
We’ll Let Allied Jurists Sit In,
Says Proposal to Paris
, Conference.
FEAR POPULAR UPRISING
BERLIN, Jan. 6. —A counter-proposal
that high German officials be tried before
German courts for alleged war crimes,
with allied jurists collaborating with
the German judges, instead of before an
international tribunal in London, is be
fore the entente.
The peace delegates of the allied and
associated powers have not yet answered
the German suggestion, although it was
made some time ago. In view of the
fa<*t that preparations are proceeding in
London and I*nris for the trial of the
former kaiser and others in the British
capital, belief was expressed today that
the proposal for the trial In Germany
has been completely rejected.
SCANT CONSIDERATION
FOR FORMER KAISER. y
Herr von Slmson of the German peace
delegation in Paris, was said to have
laid facts before the allied representa
tives to support the contention that the
surrender of large numbers of promi
nent officers, who have a strong follow
ing among the loyalists, might arouse a
wave of monarchist reaction, which
would create, danger of civil war and
the overthrow of the Ebert govern
ment. \
Particular mention was made of Field
Marshal von Hindenburg and Gen. Lu
dendorff. Strange to say, the former
kaiser is reported not to have been men
tioned.
CALLED QUESTION
“FULL OF DYNAMITE.”
In support of his request von Sim
son was said to have claimed that Ger
many was asking for itself exactly what
Serbia had rejected as too humilitatlng
in 1914 after the assassination of the
heir to the Austro-Hungarian throne at
Sarajevo. Serble refused to try the
assassins who were said to he Serbian
subjects.
The attempt of the allies to extradite
high German officials for trial was said
to be a question “full of dynamite” by a
well-informed government official who
asked that his name be withheld for
fear it might embarrass the administra
tion.

Paralleling the necessity of a league

HE PRAISES TANLAC
William Johnson, who left Peoria, 111.,
a few years ago In search of health,

“A few years ago," said Mr. Johnson.
"I moved to Allens Park, Colo., my pres

try and get back my long lost health. [

of stomach trouble, disordered kidneys
and nervousness that T couldn’t do anv

of medicine did me any good and I kept
getting worse. I was not only disap

stomach got In such a bad fix that I
could not eat anything without bloating
all up with gas so that I could scarcely
breathe. The gas caused my heart (o
skip beats and at times the pains in m.v
stomach were so severe that I would just
lie down on the floor and roll over and
over. My stomach was so sour that it
burned dike fire and I often had such
terrible sick headaches that I could not
get out of the house for a day or two
at a time. My kidneys bothered me con

me much worse if it had be;n breaking

Necessary to Bring Home
Truth of Work at Paris,
N Says Former Senator .
CHICAGO, Jan. 6.—President Wilson
may yet decide to become a third term
candidate for the whitehouse, according
to J. Hamilton Lewis, former senator
from Illinois and former democratic
whip of the senate.
“The republican leaders of the senate
can make the president a third term can
didate.” said Lewis, ‘Must as they have
done in two past campaigns in making
Wilson their political antagonist.
“President Wilson’s refusal to Remove
himself as a third term candidate is be
cause of the unpatriotic course of foes
in his own party and of the republican
partisan leaders—all persisting in hang
ing up the peace treaty in order to get
a political issue on Wilson. The presi
dent may be forced by the country to
go before the people to preach the truth
of his own work at Paris as the issues
of democracy.
“Wilson will no more allow the cry
of ‘third term’ to obstruct him Jhan did
Roosevelt when he came forward as a
third term candidate to stave his issues
being repudiated by the enetules of prog
ress within his party."
BOTTLE GETS HIM IN BAD.
Bert ITfyris, 978 West Pearl street,
told Patrolman Hudson that Walter Tan

Acid-Stomach Destroys
Health, Vitality and
Strength
Good health is your heritage. So don’t let
an acid-stomach deprive you of your health.
Don’t let it hold you back.
Some-peonle think an acid-stomach merely
causes indigestion, dyspepsia, bloat, heart
bum, etc. That Is a grave mistake. You simply
have no idea of the long train of physical ills
and awful human Buffering that are directly
traceable to acid-etomach. Rheumatism,Gout,
Sciatica, Cirrhosis of the Liver, Biliousness,
Anemia, Autointoxication, Intestinal Conges
tion, Severe Headache, Insomnia, Nervousness,
Mental Depression, Melancholia, Dizziness,
Heart Trouble—yes, even Catarrh, Ulcer and
Cancer of-the Stomach—all of these disorders
can find their original source in that one con
dition —acid-atom ach.
Most people do not realize this. Yet it is
not at all surprising. Any number of people
have acid-mouth without knowing it, because
the acid is absolutely tasteless, yet powerful
enough to eat through the harder-tnan-bone
enamel of the teeth, causing them to decay.
Therefore you ean easily imagine that acid
atom ach is far reaching in its effects, causing
the above named ailments.

MEXICO QUAKE
Villages Wiped Out by Water
“Following Disastrous

MEXICO CITY, Jan. 6.—Floods have
followed the earthquake in eastern
Mexico causing many fatalities. The flood
in the San Francisco river in the state
of Vera Cruz was especialy severe, wip
ing out many villages., Rlncenada, be
tween the city of Vera Cruz and Jalapa,
was completely submerged. Twenty-five
•bodies have been recovered there and
the water is dotted with many morg.
Official reports that began to trickle in
today from the devastated area show
that the damage and loss of life were
more extensive than originally supposed.
The subterranean upheaval paused the
waters of the flooded rivers to be cov
ered for a while with some unknown
black substance which gave the stench of
sulphur.
The town of Teoclco is reported to have
been swallowed up entirely, not a vestige
being left.
-Soldiers and hundreds of sailors are
searching the ruins of damaged cities for
dead and injured.
Much suffering hag been caused in the
city of Vera Cruz by scarcity of drink

at many places by the earth undulations.

Noted Opera Singer, Given Di

With Heart Affairs.
CHICAGO, Jan. 6.—Mme. Amelita
Galli-Curei, noted opera singer, by her
own statements today is “through with
men for many, many years.”
She.was granted a divorce from her
husband, Lugl Curci, late yesterday.
Only the signature Judge McDonald
on the decree, making her “absolutely
free.” today was awaited by her.
The hearing wbtcii ended a year of
nrief drawing, deposition taking, and
detailed evidence seeking, was a dis
appointment to several hundred court
fans who had expected a bitter legal
battle extending over several- days.
The case went practically by default,
the answer to Mme. Galli-Curci’s
bill being withdrawn at the last mo
ment.
Nevertheless, the diva was there. She
offered a bit of bright testimony. Two
witnesses from Fleischiiaan’s, New York,
told tales of Luigi Curd’s “other loves.’*
Two pictures of those loves were Intro
duced. Bailiff Jacob Pomaranz managed
to splinter his brand new gavel.
Luigi Curci was not in court. His at
torney, Rcy D. Keehn, declined to cross
examine the witnesses. When Mme. -
Curci heard Judge McDonald say “that’s
all,” she sighed and smiled and declared
that her thoughts in the future would be
far from matrimony.
The charge against Luigi Curci was in
fidelity. The glfl named was one Melissa
Brown of Flelschman's. In a deposition
Miss Brown admitted that Curd had
made love to her In a motor caF on a
