PORTLAND Ore. Oct. 18.—Sena-
tor George E. Chamberlain chair-

“I believe the time has come to

to be in Washington in ample time
to get in touch with the plans and

s French Ship Admiral Hameline Tor-
pedoed After Nd ng shelled.
PARIS Oct. 18.—The Marseilles
correspondent of the Petit Journal
• telegraphs that the mail boat Eu-
gene Pereire has arrived there with
33 members of the crew of the
French steamship Admiral Hameline
. which was sunk by a submarine. A
previous report from the Havas cor-
v respondent said that 71 persons on
l board the steamer lost their lives.
« The Admiral Hameline was under
government requisition. According to
the Petit Journal correspondent she
n was torpedoed by an Austrian sub-
marine without notice and while pas-
sengers and crew were being trans-
ferrod to the boats the submarine
” bombarded the steamer which was
' struck by 40 shells. The captain of
1 the submarine cited as justification
for his act that the steamer was
■ armed but this in denied by the cor-
respondent. Six of the crew were
wounded by the bombardment. The
sound of firing drew a French tor-
pedo boat and an English hospital
ship to the spot and the wounded
| and many fugitives were taken
' aboard by these vessels. The subma-
rine fled at their approach after
firing two torpedoes into the Admiral
Hamelin and sinking her.

EACH TO TAKE A SHARE
Solution of Aspirations of
Warring Nations Found in
Overrunning America.

PARIS. Oct. 1. —The subjoined cu-1
rious communication written on thick j
(official looking folio paper without ।
I any Indication of its origin has been I
[delivered by messenger at the office
of the Havas Agency the principal
I news agency in France;
I -The United States as the Prize for
Settlement of U»e Present Euro
pean Conflict.
"It is stated on high authority
that 'suggestions have been made in
the diplomatic circles of European
chancelleries declaring that the
easiest solution and the one most ac-
ceptable to all the warring nations
would be the partition among them
'of the United States of America. The
United States of America are a most
inviting prize as compensation for
I the sacrifices rendered by these na-
; lions and an arrangement on the
' basis of the respective relations of
'the different nations is surprisingly
practicable.
"So far from being a visionary
I scheme for a solution of this great
i world conflict the fact is only too
apparent that only a small part of
the effort expended In the sanguinary
I struggle now raging would have suf-
। ficed to satisfy all nations in their
respective ambitions.
To Parcel the United States.
"A noted diplomat declared his
surprise that this idea of the parti-
tion of the United States had not
emerged sooner because the land is
so largely made up of the constitu-
ency of all the warring nations.
“The tentative plan to satisfy thus
the national ambitions of the Euro-
; pean countries at war. instead of pro-
longing the internecine struggle is
broadly outlined as follows:
"Great Britain is to occupy New
| England Virginia North and South
Carolina. Georgia and Florida.
"France is to get the French parts
of Eastern Canada and the states of
Eouisiana Mississippi Alabama Ark-
lansas. Tennessee and Kentucky.
"Germany is to occupy the states
of New York. Pennsylvania Ohio In-
diana Michigan Illinois Missouri
lowa Wisconsin and Minnesota.
"Japan Is to take the Pacific coast
| the state of Oregon Upper and Lower
California.
"Mexico is to be compensated for
Lower California by ceding to it Ari-
zona. New Mexico and part of Texas.
Canal to Be Free.
"Russia will receive Alaska.
"The Panama canal will be de-
clared free whilst the western states
North and South Dakota. Nebraska
Kansas. Oklahoma. Washington.
Montana Wyoming. Idaho Utah and
Colorado will be consolidated Into an
imperial crown-domain of the Ger-
man empire.
"Though these 'satisfactions’ are to
be acquired in a concerted campaign
each of the several nations is to ef-
fect the occupation of Its own al-
lotted territory.
"Thus it is claimed would best be
met the rights and interests of the
different nations of old Europe as it
would safeguard their nationals
under their respective flags.
"Whatever may be said about this
bold solution it should be appre-
ciated that In many ways it is more
feasible than the three successive
partions of Poland which neverthe-
less are historic facts.
"Truth is sometimes stranger than
fiction. This alleged tentative under-
standing of the powers at war may
be relegated to imaginative fiction
but it is surely not stranger than the
sober truth and it may easily take
form.”

The stately structure fashioned
after the famous mausoleum erected
for King Mausolus by Queen Artemi-

seven wonders of the ancient world—-
is unique among the many magnifi-
cent buildings in the national capi-
tal. It has been under construction
since 1911 when ground was broken.
It stands on Sixteenth street about
one mile from the White House on
the capital's finest boulevard and in
a section of the city where many of
the nation's most celebrated public
men have lived during their public
service in Washington.
Viewed from the exterior on a
plateau above symbolic flights of
steps the structure presents a plain
base above which rises a lofty pyra-
midal entablature supported by thir-
ty-three massive columns.
The approach to the main portal is
by four flights of steps. Two colossal
sphinxes symbolic of divine wisdom
and power are at the entrance. On
the plinths of these figures are in-
scriptions in Phoenician and in Egyp-
tian hierogliphics. Just before the
great door let Into the pavement
are two flaming swords and between
them the inscription: ’The Temple
of the Supreme Council .of the Thir-
ty-third Degree of the Ancient and
Accepted Scottish Rite of Freema-
sonry for the Southern Jurisdiction
of the United States Erected to God
and Dedicated to the Service of Hu-
manity. Salve Frater!” Carved into
the frieze over the great d-oor is
’’Freemasonry Builds Its Temple in
the Hearts of Men and Among the
Nations.’’ A placque on the great
door bears an oblong square with a
rayed triangle in its center and
with the figures ”33” on the center.
The ceremonies were performed by

tor General Hugo the program wa:
arranged and many of the number;
were especially composed for the oc
casion.
The ceremonies were performed oi

vited guests.

WOMEN WEAK RUN-DOWN
Finds Health In a Simple Tonic.
People in San Antonio will begin
to believe us when we sat that our
delicious Vinol is a wonderful tone
and strength creator.
Here is another case where it
has proved its wonderful power to
overcome weak run-down nervous
aneaemic conditions.
"I was run down nervous and
could not do my work without being
entirely exhausted and would often
faint without any apparent cause.
The doctor said 1 was anaemic but
tailed to help me. My husband
brought home a bottle ot \ inol and
1 began to improve after taking one
bottle and after taking four bott s
it has built me up so I can do all my
housework without help. I recom-
mended Vinol to a neighbor who
savs her doctor approves of it and
said Vinol is a wonderfully good
tonic." Mrs. Bessie Hering. West

We recommend Vinol to our cus-
tomers as the greatest strength cre-
ator we know —due to the extractive

ers without oil combined with pep-
tonate of iron and beef peptone all

—Sheriff Wright stated today that
no trace had been found of Emilio
Sopro the Mexican who escaped
from the officers lure Saturday
morning while waiting for sentence
to be pronounced upon him in the

and furnished a real thrill for court-
house attaches and spectators. Judge
Hopkins had ordered the prisoner
with others who bad been convicted
on various charges during the week
brought into the court room where
sentence "as to be pronounced.
I While waiting his turn Sopro asked
I permission of the deputy in charge
to step into an adjoining room. After
a couple of minutes the officer went
to the door to call the prisoner and
discovered that Sopro had vanish-
ed. The screen over the small win-
dow in the room had been torn away.
I and the prisoner had climbed
through and leaped to the ground
50 feet below.
The district court room is on the
fifth floor of the new county court-
house and before the alarm could
be given the fugitive had disappear-
ed. He was seen by a number of
persons running from the court-
house but not knowing that he was I
an escaped prisoner no effort was
made to detain him. He did not ap-
pear to be suffering from any injury
from his sensational leap.
Sopro was convicted in the district
court on October 12 on two separate
charges of burglary and was given a
total of seven years in the peniten-
tiary.
