Exeter Times, 1915-4-8, Page 2KAISER TO DIVIDE AUSTRIA
Punishment for Emperor Joseph ` Not Having Kept
His End Up In the Conflict
A despatch from London says :
The Press Bureau's official eyewit-
ness at the, British front sends a
new version of GTerman aims,
gleaned from captured German offi
cera, who ss, that the Austrian
empire is to be di.saneathered, part
of it going to Italy and part of it
to Germany. This is the price, ae-
cording to these officers Austria
must pay for the failure of her
arms: It is said in addition, by
these men that Germany.will insist
upon the annexation of Belgium to
a new German -confederation., to in-
clude all Germanic peoples and the
Seandinavians. Antwerp, accord-
ing to these views, which are pro-
nonneed with great assurance, is to
be made an internat•ieual port, and
the whole of this sccheme is to be
brought about through the offices
of the Pope.
`!Conversation with captured offi-
cers and the better educated pri-
soners has thrown considerable
light on the views of the general
situation now held by the German
army.
"It is freely acknowledged that
Germany started the war, but opin-
ion seems to be divided regarding
Iver intention to occupy Belgium
t
she would ly, lnot haveelieha
crossed e f istthe
Meuse if England had remained
neutral, but would have advanced
through South Belgium and Luxem-
burg, thinking Great Britain would
take it in the right way., as long as
Germany maintained that she de-
sired no territory in Europe not
already oeeup•ied • . by German-
speaking. people, It. is admitted
that Getanany's . strategic frontier
in the Vosges, infest, be improved.
"The most inepoetent point in the
views now held is a frank admission
that since the Austrians have fabled
so badly in the present war and
have had to be bolstered' up by the
armed strength of Germany she will
have to pay for it and must bleed.
"The German prisoners hold that
the Austrian Empire will cease to
exist. The Germans will give away
some of its- territory "to Italy, and
will include the German-speaking
portion of Austria in the German
Empire, and also Luxemburg.
"The Germans will welcome the
Dually of Poland as a buffer be-
tween themselves and Russia, and
will insist on Belgium joining the
German eollverein, Antwerp be-
coming an international port."
VIEWED GRAVELY
BY WASHINGTON
2#lurder of an American Citizen by
German Pirates Stirs Uncle
Sam. •
A despatch from Washington
says: The reported death of Leon
C. Thrasher. an American citizen,
t
thedestruction of
a. resu.t of the d st
the British ship Falaba by a Ger-
man torpedo, are viewed gravely in
official quarters here because of the
seri'.,ue poseib•ilities involved.
.Ambassador Page is giving his
attention to the ease and will for-
ward -all the facts. Because of the
gravity of the issue raised by this
first American death resulting from
the German submarine programme,
csf rials refused to make any com-
ment on the case for publication.
It
has been realized ever since
the 'despatch of the communication
to the German Government notify-
ing it that the United States would
hr..td it to a strict accountability
for the aets of its naval authorities
that this Government was practi-
cally committed to •serious action

view of the _American note.
it Noss nr'de plain. however, that
the State Department will move
with extreme deliberation and care
in the Thrasher ease. No effort
will he spared to .obtain every fact
having a bearing on the ease. par-
tieularly with reference to the cir-
et'mstance5 under which the Falaba
was sent to the bottom and more
than ane hundred persons, includ-
ing Thrasher, lost their lives.
The first ciuestion about 'which it
was thought there might be some
doubt, Thrasher's citizenship, has
been answered. Investigation at
the State Department showed that
Thrasher obtained a passport June
1, 1911, giving his residence as
Hardwick, Worcester County,
Massachusetts, where his mother
resides. Carl Barnes, also of
Hardwick, endorsed his applica-
tion. This passport has since been
renewed in London. It is not
doubted in the face of this, evidence
that Thrasher's citizenship can be
established beyond question.
Therefore it is regarded as ex-
tremely probable that the case will
eventually have to be taken up with
the German Government. Officials
here are of the opinion that a
strong ease scan be peesented, so
far as the law in, the "matter is' con -

Strategists. Never Dreamed of Car-
pathians as Battlefield.
A despatch from London says:
The battle of the Carpathians con-
tinues to be regarded as the most
important development of the war
by the allied countries and the Ten-
ton.s. Both sides are dally aug-
menting their forces and the battle
line has been prolonged until it
now stretches over 200 miles of
some of the roughest country in:
Europe, and along this line actions
are being fought daily, where nei-
ther general staff nor military stra-
tegists ever dreamed a battle would
be fought.
The Carpathian battle line now
extends, frsni'the valley• of the On-
dave, aleese 3 '°Dukla Pans to Wysz-
kow, and this line is the base of
the triangle, the apex of which is
to be driven into the plains of Hun-

Mile. Perichon, who is only 23, is a Belgian Reed. Cross nurse -She
has the distinction of being the only Belgian woman whom King Al-
bert has decorated with the military Order of Leopold, and the medal
on her bosom was pinned there for conspicuous bravery, which has
seldom been equalled even by members of the stronger sex. Mlle.
Jeanne is the only Red Cross nurse who has actually done work in
the trenches at the front. She felt she could atceoniplish more good
there by administering first-aid to the wounded than by simply doing
her regular duties in some field hospital, and by special permission
she was permitted to go with the surgeons to the battle lines. She is
in America as the secretary of the Countess L. de Hemptinne, to
aid her in her appeal to Americans for help in rebuilding Belgium.

SEEK TO CHECK
RUSSIAN MARCH
The Austrians Are Sending Many
Troops Northward in
lllnugery.
A despatch from Petrograd says:
On the new Russian base along the
line of Uszok, Lupkow and Bartfeld
substantial beginnings of the
spring campaign are visible. A
Russian column moving into Hun-
gary along the Padova Rider cap-
tured two full regiments and a field
battery. The. Austrians are now
bringing large reinforcements from
the. •south. The first stages of the
battle; which is engaging great
numbers, are now.'developing.
The Germans in the north are
covering the period, until a fresh
corps arrives :from the west by
restless • and futile raids. • The
enemy's exasperation et the steady
crushing o'f his Niemen campaign is
unmeasured. General von Buelow's
artillery . has •bee•n evacuating its
positions to the north-west of Osso-
wetz for several days. Once twenty
batteries were, shelling the outer
sector of the fortress,' but now only
four remain, and even they are
quiescent. All the heavy mortars
have been withdrawn slowly along
the Lyck Road. The field troops re-
main in a corner of East Prussia.
The Austrian cavalry, in moderate
numbers, crossed from Czernowitz
into Bessarabia, a Russian province
which formerly belonged to Roue
mania. In the direction of Khotin
they moved from a point where
Austria, Russia and Roumanii'a,
meet, a region where the Russians
did not consider it expedient to
place any force, but the raid is now
being countered. Apart from the
obvious political purposes of im-
pressing Roumania, it is possible
that the Austrians thought it
might in fluence the movement of
Russian troops. '

SUN POWER.
Doubtful If It Can Be Generated
As Cheaply As Water Power.
The inventor of a sun -power en-
gine now working in Egypt claims
that 20,000 square miles of the Sa-
hara Desert can be made to deliver
as much power asis obtained from
all the coal now mined in the world,
The claim is a little startling at
first. Population has followed me-
chanical power for many years, and
doubtless will continue to do so.
If the sun engine is to be made
truly practical, visions arise of the
densely PP a l
peopled areas e s o f
the North
being deserted for the sun -baked
plains of Africa, Arizona, and
Mexico. What then f
Nothing then. That emigration
never will take ,place. Nature has
so ordered it that lands of perpet-
ual sunshine produce very little
that mankind needs. Mian of re-
cent years, has arranged tiiings'so
that power can be shipped long
distances over a wire, with compar-
atively little loss. If the .sun -power
engine does an much as this invent-
or hopes, the world's deserts may
become great generating stations,
and that is a,bou•t all.

Police Think He Caused an Explosion in Baggage
on Steamer
A despatch from New- York says
Raymond Rolfe Swoboda, arrested
in Paris, charged with setting dire
to the steamer La Touraine, is an
American citizen, and represented
in this country a French syndicate
engaged in purchasing supplies fors
the French Government and the
civilian population. This was ate
tested to by R. K. Maclean, of this
city, formerly textile expert of the
Federal Tariff Board; by Thomas
Hooper, of Victoria, B.C., a. Cana-
dian, and by Eugene Davis and W.
F. Mohr, both Americans, of this
city, all of whom said they were
associated with . Swoboda in the
purchase of supplies.
All four men were unanimous in
asserting• that a. grave error had
been made in arresting him, and
have made representations to the
State .Department, accompanied by
affidavits to prove that Swoboda's
mission at Paris was solely for the
purpose .of submitting samplers of
American goods to the Prenoh
syndicate..
According to the Paris despatch-
es Swoboda has been arrested there
as a, result of evidence brought• out
at the official enquiry into the fire
on the Touraine, which broke out
March 6 while the steamer was en
route from New York to Havre.
The fire is said to have been traced
to an explosion among the first-
class baggage in the hold, and Swo-
boda was declared by, fellow -pas-
sengers to have madepeculiar
stateaneiets before the time of the
accident.
Swoboda was traced to Paris :and
arrested' by aFrench .secret servioe
official, ,and it is said that letters in
German found- in his room at a
hotel. will furnish. important evi-
dence. The despatches state that
he was well known in Paris finan-
cial circles,. where he had served
as foreign representative for a
broker named Morrison. He was
supposed to be a Russian, and of-
ten 'spoke in Paris of family . con-
nections in Petrograd and Moscow.
TWO -• PENCE PER DAY IN CASH
A despatch from Venice says:
Reports received from 'Trieste say
that the Austrian troops in Tren-
tino are in a miserable condition,
being penniless, hungry and ill -
clad. Their pay has been cut from
'fourpenoe per day to twopence, and
their rations from five . loaves of
bread a week to two loaves, it is
said. Men considerably over forty
years of age, the reports say, are
being sent into the trenches, ill-
equipped and their uniforms old
and toren, after only a month of
practice drilling. The eo•n.clition of
the civil p•op•ulation• is said to, be
equally wretched. Private letters
from Trieste say that numbers of
the people are literally starving.
Palatable wheat bread is 'unobtain-
able at any price, and the supply
of war bread is quite inadequate.
The bakers' . hops are besieged
early in the morning, but only the
.strong and aggressive, the letters
say; sueoeeerin getting a few loaves.
The shops then cess for the day.
Disorders ;are said to be frequent,
and the police are eom,peliled to
make many arrests. A-ccording to
the letter the prices of most of the
necessary foodstuffs have doubled
or trebled. The misery of the
poorer classes is said to be indes-
cribable. Persons daring to pro-
test are arrested.

During the daylight hours of ac-
tivity, muscular movements and
work of all the non-eleeiping tissues,
two processes take place which
have an intimate association with•
bardening and toughening of in-
elastic arteries and ,
Other Blood Tubes.
Once of these is the precipitation
and deposit froint the streaming
blood of all the heavy minerals,
ashes and waste particles present,
in the scarlet flow.
The upshot of this is that the
living walls and living tissues which
line the blood pipes try, like a oat,
tet cleanse themselves. They liter-
a13r lift the stuff from the walls and
carry it further inside, deep into
the riddle and outer layers of the
arterial walls. To the touch they

. When your niuscies are ekcessive,•
ly in motion the adrenal- glands -
little bunches of tissue over the
kidneys which look like horse oh•est-
nxrbs -,pour out an exerts, quantity
of juice made by them. This raises
the pressure of the blood, adds to
the heat and rush of that fluid, and
causes the little muscular rings in
the blood pipes to work beyond
their normal.
The heart beat in sleep is softer,
the blood pressure falls to its low-
est point compatible with health,
the adrenal glands cease their man-
ufacture of muscle -activating sub-
stanoes, minerals are no longer de-
posited on and in the walls of the
arteries and veins, the muscle rings
in the blood tubes ar•o,e.1lowed to
rest instead of being otS+e:rwarked,
and all the functions of the blood
channels are free to begin cleaning
away the debris and refuse w1 ch
have collected during the worl
hours. But they must have tithe
enough to do it. Ten hours is' the
least they can' do it in.
Varicose Veins.
Gymnastics of the arteries and
veins not only cad ,sleep to ward off
arterio -sclerosis, but they protect
you from the most annoying tor-
sions and bends of tlho veins
known as "varecose veins." The
way to carry out these vascular ex-
ercises is simaple enough. Great pa-
tienee and persistency is, however,
necessary.
If you wile run the forefinger and
thumb of your right hand along the
lines of your thumb, straight up
from the front of your wrist and
forearm you will feel the pulsations
in the radical arteries of the arm's.
In like manner, half way between
your Chin and the angles of the
jaw on each side, you will Leal the
pulse of arteries. On the forehead
on- eiach side, in the neck, ,in the
ankles, in the elbows, armpits,
thighs and crotch. of . the knee the
same beats of the heart are to be
felt as a pulse. •
The veins, unlike the arteries,
have no beat or pulse in"them. They
are, nevertheless, easily to be
found on the surface of the akin by
virtue of theist- bluish . hue. The
blue-green color of the veins shows

are more circular and less flat than
the veins, so -they :ars seized as fax
