LENINE TRAITOR
Washington, March 8 Ambassador
David R. Francis, who went to Rus
sia In March, 1916, and represented
the United States at Fetrograd and
temporary headquarters until the Al
lied and American diplomats depart
ed from territory controlled by the
BolshevikL told the story of his ex
periences In Russia, today before the
Senate committee Investigating law
less propaganda
Mr. Francis said he found the Ger
mans so strongly entrenched in Rus
sia that they could not have been dis
lodged In years. Even the war had
not broken their control over Russian
Industry.
Mr. Francis said he had no doubt
that Lenlne was from the very 'be
ginning an agent of the German gov
ernment. .:-si
The Germans never would have per
mitted to oome through Germany had
they not known he would be useful
to them, the ambassador declared.
"Moreover, Lenine disbursed large
amounts of money. I believe, how
ever, that Lenine was even more con
cerned about startling a. world-wide
revolution than he was about furth
ering the Interests of Germany. He
later not only permitted, but encour
aged the reign of terror which still
prevails in Russia."

Judge Thomas J. Coughlin, one of
the several active memtoers opposing
the proposition, remarked this morn
ing, "Stratfond1 is & clean, prosperous,
sulburoan community. It Is a pleas
ant and qluet place In which to live.
The people there are removed from
the dirt, obnoxious odors and noise of
more populous communities. In the
event of the Port of Bri-dgeiport goes
through all this will toe changed. The
proposed industries will ferine to
Stratford an objectionable class of
-people of which the town is now free.
The present residents are living in
peace and harmony. They dont want
to toe disturbed in this happiness at
great expense."

Aluminum Coma
Africa has adopted the aluminum
coin. Nearly 82,000,000 coins of that
metal have been struck from the Brit

the Nigerian protectorates. Each coin

2 mills.
They are perforated ln the center
like Chinese coins. In order that the
natives may string them together.
Bronze coins are in wide circulation
on the west coast of Africa.
In the Interior small shells known
as cowries are used as fractional cur

that the new coins have been struck.

HOUNDS COULD NOT FORGET
Faithful Animals Long Remembered
Young Master Who Met Tragic
Death a Year Ago.
It has often been said that a "dog
Is a man's best friend." This has cer
tainly proved true In the case of
Johnny Ingram, a fifteen-year-old boy.
who froze to death during the big
snowstorm about a year ago on the
backs of Spring river, says a
water (Okla.) dispatch.
When the body of the unfortunate
boy -was found two large greyhounds
sat shivering in the snow guarding
their young master's remains from
wolves and other wild beasts..
After the boy's burial the
two
faithful hounds would make almost
dally trips out to the cemetery and
sit for hours at his grave. On these
days they would not partake of a bite
to eat until they returned to the In
gram Lome.
Many have followed the dogs to the
cemetery out of curiosity to see what :
., "...j j m, ft.
they would do. They were often
found lying there, one on each eide
of the grave, their heads between
thelr paws, as if in silent prayer.
Last summer the dogs were seen
to gather wild pansies and violets In
their mouths and trot off toward the
cemetery, where they would deposit
the flowers upon the boy's grave.
These flowers were favorites with the
lad. About a month ago the two
dogs appeared to be sick.
A vetdrlnary surgeon was called
from Stillwater, but after examining
the dogs he declared that he could,
find nothing wrong with them. How
ever, they still refused to eat and
finally disappeared.
NO THOUGHT OF GRATITUDE i
'
Hungry School Teacher Unfortunately ;
Had
"Cast Bread Upon the Wa
ters" In Vain.
Two Hnosler teachers were traveling
through Canada the other day. They
had to take a very early train, and as a
result intended to eat breakfast In the
dining car. But there was no dining
car on the train. Hungrily they faced
the prospect of a day of fasting, for
they would not arrive at their destina
tion until late afternoon. "We have
just two cakes of chocolate," said one,
taking store, of their possessions. "Will
you eat yours now or wait a while?"
The second ate her cake then, trust
ing to luck to fi-d a station lunchroom.
But the first waited until noon and
until a mother and two small children
had settled themselves In the seat op
posite the teachers.
Finally she took the cake of choco
late, eyed It In happy anticipation and
then unwrapped it. But lo, the two
youngsters were against her knee, and
they, too, were looking at It with happy
anticipation. Of course It was divid
ed between them.
Half an hour later the mother open
ed her grip and out came the family
lunch of fried chicken, sandwiches, etc.
But not one bite did the generous
teacher get. "What was that about a
cup of cold water?" she asked the
other teacher hlntlngly.
The woman with the fall basket
stared at her coldly. Then she took
a drinking cup from her grip and ex
tended it. "Ten may have It," she of
fered, "but there's paper cups at the
can." Indianapolis News.

New Enemy of the Oak.
Reports of the defoliation of various j
species of oak have come into the for- ,
est service offices from western Wash
ington, the Ilogue River valley and the
Willamette valley, according to Dis
trict Forester Cecil.
This defoliation has been caused by
a caterpillar known as thev western
oak loopera worm, which operates from
Oregon to British Columbia, and which
has been known to defoliate the oak
! ln certain areas' for several years
in
i succession. Successful methods of
controlling this caterpillar have been
devised by the bureau of entomology.
Lettuce In Winter.
An early spring supply of lettuce Is
assured British women gardeners who
have adopted the glass-jar method this

frost. This system is specially desir

throughout the whole year.

ANCIENT ACTORS WELL PAID
Researches Show That Oldtime Enter
tainers Were by No Means Inade
quately Rewarded.
Enormous salaries of actors today
are looked upon as a modern Innova
tion, growing with the development of
the' American millionaire and the im
agination of the American press agent.
Such is not the case, says Robert Man-
Still- J tell, who in his studies in the prepara
I tion of his classic repertoire has
come across many bits of curious in
formation, observes the Buffalo Ex
press. The Roman actor Rosclus,
whose name has become synonymous
with all that is marvelous In a player.
earned a salary which, according to
Mr. Mantell, puts that warm friend of
Cicero quite in a class with Charlie
Chaplin. Rpscius drew about $100
daily in the-money of his time, which
had a purchasing power equivalent to
nearly $1,600 in United States money,
even without the aid of the war and
the patriotism of the restaurant men.
. , ... , j
That brings his annual salary to the
half-million mark. Another actor, the
tragedian Aesopus, not to be confound-
ed with the writer of fables, and who
also was a friend of Cicero, received so
great a salary that he left a vast for
tune to his son. When Emperor Ves
pasian repaired the theater of Marcel
lus he gave the tragedian Apolllnaris
(whom a Winter garden comedian
might dub "the father of waters")
520,000 to appear there, but the length
of his services is not stated. To each
of two harpists in the company, Ter-
pinus Bna Diodorus, he gave $10,000,
and no player received less than ?2,
000. In addition, he made the actors
numerous special presents of money,
always gold. '
Coming down to more recent times
and more modest amounts, but still
comparable with salaries of today, Da-
viu uarncu arew at tne neignt or nis
popularity $250 a night. Macready in
1839, when jbe staged for the first time
"Richelieu,'1 was paid $125 a night,

period, drew the same salary.
DOG REFUSED TO STAY DEAD
Indianapolis Poflceman Found He Had
Not Done as Good a Job as
He Thought.
Frank Finney, motor policeman, lost
his reputation as a marksman the oth
er day after he and his partner, Ben
Lansing, had been called to the Co
burn Storage and Warehouse company,
211 West Georgia street, to end the
suffering of a dog that had been run
over by an automobile.
Finney shot the dog, all right, the
bullet apparently putting an end to the
animal's suffering. In fact attaches of
the warehouse officially pronounced
the dog dead, and told the two motor
policemen they could return to head
quarters, as further services would not
be needed.
A short time after the motor police
men returned, an attache of the ware
house telephoned to Captain Sanders
and told him the dog apparently had
"come to life again" and was trying to
walk. Finney and Lansing were sent
back to complete the job. The former,
however, refused to take a hand in the
affair, contending that he had killed
it the first time, so Lansing was chosen
as executioner, and the dog was real
ly and finally killed. Indianapolis

Doughboy Missed Treasure.
At Varennes they still show the
place where the doughboy fainted.
For the greater part of a week he
had been busy there at the humble
tasks of general police when Into his

dier, who explained that Varennes had
been his home beforw the war, and
that he had had to leave It hastily
when the Germans came four years
before.

The Course of True Love.
"Clarence Spradd has had a spat
with that 'ere plump Guggles girl," re
lated Burt Blurt of -Petunia. "He
bought one of them there fashionable,
thin-legged suits of clothes with a belt
and
a pucker in the back, and ex-
pected it would make him look like
the swell young fellers ln the advertis
ing columns of the newspapers. And
the Guggles girl said he looked more
like a comic picture in another part
of the same paper. He up. and told
her he'd rather be hung than to marry
her, and she said she'd rather he
would be." Kansas City Star.
Can Opener Makes Good Needle.
Many cans csed for packing meet
and other food products are operated
by means of a small handle or key,
which has an eye for receiving a strip
of tin and winding it up. These keys
are always furnished with the can and
usually thrown away as the can is
opened. Should a large needle for
sewing blankets or burlap be re
quired, a splendid one may be made
by straightening out one of these keys
and filing the end down to a point.

Bonini Charged With
First Degree Murder
(Continued From Page One.)
The father of the murdered Iboy lis
well known In Bridgeport. He was
formerly: janitor of the Fairfield.
County court house, and was janitor
at City Hall some time ago.
The murdered boy attended the
Lincoln srhool. and was In the sev
enth grade. He was a good and In
j diistrious 'boy, and was saving his
money to go to college, working af
ternoons s and Saturdays for William
De Graff, a r 'eryman of l,f"i Strat
ford avenue, delivering groceries In a
hand cart, which, was what he was
doing when shot.
Bonini stated when questioned by
the police that he v-alized that he had
killed the wrong man and ithat he was
sorry. He for the most part has
maintained an attitudle of stoical in
difference since ibeing placed under
arrest.
Bonini used a .48-calibre Springfield
riflo, of an obsolete type. He said
that the reason he surrendered to th(
arTr Pnlsr lnto m& Tarn was
because he had. no more cartridges.
The police believe that if he had mora
ammunition he would have fought
until killed, rather than surrender.
Two brothers of the murdered boy
are in the army. William L. Calla
