What is the most popular town name found in the United States? 1 — A. The postal guide shows that there are thirty-one towns in the United States named Franklin. There are twenty-eight Washingtons.

Why is the sea salty? 3 —A. The salinity of the ocean is due to the fact that waters that run into it constantly bring salt with them —salt that has been dissolved from he earth. Then, when the wa ter is brought back to the land in the form of rain ,it is pure, the salt having been left behind in the proc ess of evaporation. Thus is salt con stantly brought down to the sea, but none of it is taken away and the sea grows steadily saltier. SUPREME COURT ‘LEAK’ CHARGED IN INDICTMENTS —i— WASHINGTON.

Federal Reserve Bank Officials See Lowering Os Present Price Levels WASHINGTON. April 1 —Nation wide reports from federal reserve bank officials, made public Wednes day, disclose their opinion that the post-war era of “extravagance and reckless buying” by the people is nearing its end. “A hesitation, if not an actual ces sation” of prices is noted, and the federal reserve board’s statement summarizes its advices as indicating a generally more hopeful view the country’s business conditio J than for several mont While the price changes were shown by the board not to be uni versal, they were nevertheless re garded as positive and of ImportaT.-e as a basis for reckoning what the immediate future holds. Relief- from the high priced for the consumer will not be completely obtained until present stocks are ab sorbed in practically all lines, ac cording to the board’s view. Man ufacturers everywhere, however, were shown to hold the view that the peak of high prices has been reached an dto expect a gradual re cession. • In the clothing trade, particularly, the board said there was a marked tendency of the public to make old supplies last longer and to refuse to pay exorbitant prices. This phase can mean only that an awak ening has come, the statement said, and that many people have arrived at the conclusion that they are themselves responsible for a con tinuing high range of prices. Robert Miller Shot; J. 0. Nasworthy Held - ABBEVILLE, Ga., April 1. —J. O. Nasworthy is in Wilcox county jail here charged with having shot Rob ert Miller at his home on the Dixie Highway between Abbeville and Fitzgerald, Sunday night, causing Miller’s death Monday morning. It is said that Miller, who has been making his home in Florida, on leaving his brother’s home Sunday night, took his brother's gun, saying that he was going hunting the next day; that he went to Nasworthy’s house, told him that he had come after? him and invited him out on the porch. Nasworthy said that he could not get out of bed, but he later cracked the door open, it is reported, and, seeing Miller armed, shot him. 'Hie wounded man dragged himself to. the road, where he was picked up by Albert Dicks and carried to the home of his father, Joseph Miller. Miller, in a statement before he died, took all the blame for the affair on himself, it is said. boys have good homes. The wom an’s husband was killed a year ago while felling a tree.

Milk Maid Quits r Cows to Elope in Ford With Lover Up in Hall county three lonely cows stand in the family barn, moo ing vainly for some one to come and milk them. Outside in the yard, two shiny tin pails lie where they were tossed into the mud. Beside them is the three-legged stool, deserted. For Bessie, the milkmaid, is mar ried now and never again, so she told her husband in Atlanta Tues day morning, w&l she milk a cow or feed a pig. To'which he answered, tenderly, “I’ll say you won’t, honey! We don’t care if them cows ain’t milk till judgment day, do we?” And Bessie, the milkmaid, admitted she didn’t care. It all happened between sunup and noon Thursday. Bessie—her full name was Miss Bessie Norrel, she is eighteen years old, black-eyed, brown-haited and red-lipped and she lived with her folks four miles out of Gainesville on R. F. D. number four—rose with the sun Thursday morning. She donned her blue gingham gown, her silken boudoir cap, her shoes and her red velvet coat, trim med with real fox fur. She slung the pails over her right arm; she took the three-legged stool in her left hand, and from the Norrel home she set out for the barn. Tripping onward through the dew —or possibly, the red clay—she en countered rushing toward her, not a gallant charger—though surely it should have been—but a Henry Ford, driven by young William P. Latimer, just past twenty-one and in love with life, also Bessie. “Where are you gqing, my pretty maid?” asked William, or words to that effect. ‘ll’m going a-milking, sir,” she said. “Where are you going?” “To Atlanta,” answered William, “and you’re going with me. Aw, come on, Bess! i’ve got the license in my pocket—bought it a week ago at the courthouse in Atlanta—and there ain’t a bit of use for us to wait any longer. Let the old cows go and be Mrs. Latimer!” So 4 it happened that, after pushing the Henry Ford car out of the mud two or three times en route to Gainesville, Bessie and William— gingham gown, boudoir cap, ft-ed vel vet coat and all—arrived at the Ter minal station at 9 o’clock Thursday morning and bumped into Mrs. Payne, the Travelers’ Aid agent, whose duty it is to keep a watchful eye out for people in trouble, also lit tle girls In gingham gowns who look as if they were running away or being run away with. But when William and Bessie were taken to the police station, and when William exhibited the marriage license, everything was lovely again, and before Justice of the Peace A. A. Owens, in his office opposite the courthouse, they were made man and wife, and left, shortly thereafter, for William’s brother’s home in Easley, South Carolina “Bessie, those cows ain’t milked till yet!” grinned William happily, as he waved the reporters good-bye. “No,” said Bessie, “and I’ll never milk another!” Turkish Leader Has Declared War on England, Report Says LONDON, April I.—Mustapha Ke mal, leader of the Turkish nationalist rebels, has declared war on Great Britain, a dispatch from the Constan tinople correspondent of the Morning Post said today. Tennesseans Disabled 2,200 Not 22,000 MEMPHIS, Tenn., April I.—Earle E. Griggs, field officer of the Fed eral Board of Vocational Training, here in connection with his work among disabled soldiers, said he had been misquoted at Nashville yester day in an item saying he had stated that of the 55,000 Americans ren dered unfit to resume their former occupations during the war, 22,000, or 40 per cent were from Tennessee. The badly disabled soldiers from this state, he declared, who arc being trained in various vocational schools, numbered 2,200. THE WILLY-NICKY LETTERS (Copyright, 1920. by the Chicago Daily News Foreign Service.) “Well, European observers think that it could be managed, that the Zar could make the expected ‘grand acte’ by going to Moscow and as sembling the no'bility and notables in his magnificent palace, speak to them, perhaps beginning with a rep rimand for publishing letters and addresses sent to him, which is bad manners and must not be repeated, and then proclaim the reforms he has prepared for his people as far as he thinks fit. Not the promise of a general legislative assembly, no constituante or convention na tionale, but a habeas corpus act and wider extension of the COunsell de lempire (imperial council). No lib erty of assembly or of the press, but strict orders to all censors to obtain from any chicanes hence forth. Further the Zar would let the hearers know what he has de cided about the army—in case he thinks it possible or necessary to go out himself—to tell them and to exhort them to abstain from all in ternal quarrels till the enemy is routed. After this the Zar ‘entoure’ by the clergy with banners and cross and incense and holy Icons would go out in the balcony and read out the same speech he held before, as a manifesto to his assembled loyal subjects in the courtyard below, en circled by the serried ranks of the troops ‘la baijonette au cannon le sa bre au poing,’ (with bayonets fixed and drawn sabers’). When you would tell them that you—in case you thought It necessary—would go to share the hardships of their broth ers and relatives in the field, who had to go out by your command and to cheer them and try to lead them to victory, it is argued that the peo ple will be deeply touched and cheer you and fall on their knees and pray for you. The Zar's popu larity would be recovered and he would, gain his people’s sympathy besides. All persons who take an interest in the Russian events are unanimous in their opinion that ‘a la longue’ the Zar must not remain in perpetuum in Tsarkoe or Peter hof, but that it "is sure that should his first appearance be made under the above mentioned conditions the sensation and impression Created in the. whole world would be enormous, which would with bated breath lis ten to him when'he addresses It as his forefathers formerly did from the ramparts of the Kremlin. “This dearest Nicky is the sketch which I have drawn of the Euro pean public opinion with respect to the events in Russia.

The first, dated June 3,190 p, shows the ' kaiser advising .“Nicky” to make the ’ best of a bad job and conclude peace ' with Japan. The kaiser proposes ( President Roosevelt as mediator. The second comes immediately after the ’ visit of the kaiser to Bjoerko, a his ’ toric island in the Malar sea off , the coast of Sweden, where the czar signed the secret treaty with the kaiser and the latter felt that he ' had completed a great step in fash ioning the new “groupment” that was to include practically all the powers ’ except Great Britain. In the first case the kaiser wrote i Nicholas immediately after the Rus ! fleet was disastrously defeated ! in the straits of Korea by Admiral , Togo on May 27-28. The kaiser saw , no hope for Russia’s extricating her , self aftei* her military and naval blunders. The kaiser’s letter is t dated June 3. At that time Presi . dent Roosevelt had already acted. On June 1 he conferred with the Ja,p --i anese minister, Takafira, at the White . Houte on the possibility of opening negotiations for peace. On June 2 he conferred with the. Russian am bassador,- Count’ Cassini. On June 7 President Roosevelt sent an identi cal note to both Russia and Japan, proposing the opening of peace nego . 'tiations. This was accepted on /Tune 10 and the conference at Portsmouth August 9. President Roosevelt says of the pekce negotiations between Russia and Japan in his autobiography: “During the course of the negotia tions I tried to enlist the aid of the governments of one nation which was friendlj? to Russia, and of another nation which was friendly with Ja pan in helping bring about a peace. I got no aid from either. I did, how ever, receive aid from the emperor of Germany. His ambassador at St. Petersburg was the one ambassador who helped the American ambassa dor, Mr. Meyer, at and doubtful points of the negotiations. Mr. Meyer . . . rendered literally invaluable aid by insisting upon him self seeing the czar at critical pe riods of the transaction, when it was no longer possible for me to act suc- SATURDAY, APRIL 3, 1920 cessfully through the representatives of the czar, who were often at cross purposes with one another.” The signing of the secret treaty by the czar was William’s master stroke. It meant the building up of a series of alliances to offset Great Britain. Both the czar and William were defeated by Sergius Witte. the czar to repudiate the treaty. The czar’s weak char acter had given William his oppor tunity, but also had lost the game for him. Once turned aside Russia floated into the British orbit. Nicho last was an autocrat,/ but events proved that even autocracy cannot save a ruler who is not master of himself. The letters were copied in the archives of the Soviet government at Moscow by Isaac Don Levine, staff correspondent of the Daily News. Time for Peace Has Come “Berlin, June 3, 1905.—Dearest Nicky: The kind lines which you entrusted to Micha’s care and were given me yesterday have deeply touched me. ■ The memorable events you allude to are all clearly graved in my memory. and remind me how the years have gone by and how oft en since long we two have been brought into personal relations. The natural consequence of this is a firm feeling of mutual friendship that de veloped between us both based on a perfect understanding of each other. These relations have flourished through the long years for the wel fare of our countries, to rule which we have been called upon by provi dence. They wei'e, and I hope will continue, to be guarantees of peace and welfare . for the two countries as well as for the world.
