Amsterdam, Netherlands, Nov. 1. Thrift, which is regarded as one of the chief virtues of the Dutch people, has not been affected by the war. Savings banks returns show that of the near 6,000,000 inhabitants includ- ing men, women and children of the Lowlands no fewer than 1,677,790 are depositors in the posroSlce savings bank and about 500,000 others in the agricultural loan banks and private savings banks making altogether nearly 2,200,000 depositors,-o- r oyer one in three of the entire population. The war raging all around does not appear to have diminished the saving power of the people to any appreci- able extent, if at all, for at the end of July this year the total of the de- posits in the postoffice savings bank had been reduced by only $2,217,863 as compared with the same date in 1914 namely, $71,347,980 as against $73,655,843. It is thought that most of the reduction was brought about by depositors withdrawing their sav- ings for investment in the new gov- ernment loans, which return a higher rate of interest.

Wireless stations established by the Rusian government in the artictic keep the vessels advised as to the channels freest from ice. Acting on their information, twt large vessels chartered by a Siberian trading com nany have just arrived at Grimsby with cargoes from the Yenesei and Obi districts of Central Siberia, valued at $1,750,000. The Obi and Yanesei are huge riv ers with a great depth or water, tak ing steamers any size. But it was not until lately that their navigation was put in practice. Owing to the use of the trans-S- i berian railway by the Russian govern ment for war supplies, there are d, 000.000 tons of wheat held up in Si beria, besides enormous quantities of other produce. If this can be got out, it will improve Russian exchange, which is now a serious problem among the allies-Ne- xt year the company proposes to take about thirty steamers over the new White sea route, laden with Si- berian products. Even if the war ends before this time, it is pointed out that the Siberian railway will be more or less tied up with back business and the returning of troops. A Welcome Change.

JACK BARRY IN CLASS BY HIMSELF Some baseball players achieve niches in the hall of fame and others have records wrecked in the world's series. Jack Barry, however, is in a class by himself. All Jack does is to jump from one club to another as pennant chances wax and wane and collect an abnormal share of the post- season receipts. Since 1910 Barry has played in five world's series thereby enriching his bank roll to the extent of $14,821.15. This comes close to batting 1.G00 in the financial league. DAUGHTRIDGE CLUB FORMED Rocky Mount. Nov. 1. An enthus- iastic organization working for the nomination of E. L. Daughridge for governor, has been organized.

Budapest, Hungary, Nov. 1. "The political and economical position of Germany makes a great overseas co- lonial empire an absolute necessity," declares Herr Solf, the German min- ister of colonies, in an interview with the correspondent of Azest. After emphasizing the importance of the present move in the Balkans from the point of view of German colonial policy, Herr Solf continues: "It is necessary, for us not only to maintain our previous colonial posses- sions, but even to increase them, ir- respective of the European issues and of the settlement in Europe after the war. Our motto will be, arter the con- clusion of the war, to establish a con- nected colonial empire destined to fill up the gaps in our economic life in accordance with the necessities of our position. "Our only enemy from a colonial point of view is England. How the future Germany overseas will be built up depends on the result of our war with England. At the very moment when we restore communications with the Straits of Constantinople and drive the allied forces into the sea in Gallipoli, together with the Italians and any others attaching themselves to these, the events that will follow will develop like those in a well-WTit-t- en play. "The Turkish army will advance through Asia Minor and Taurus, in order to concentrate for a further ad- vance at Damascus. Every new army corps which will pass through the Kilikia gate of the city of Saladin will aggravate the terror of London. On the day when the English army on the Nile, with the Australians, the Cana- dians, and the Indians capitulates be- fore the Turks, or when they have to reembark at Alexandria, the world-pow- er of England will sink into the deep from Gibraltar to Singapore. What she will save out of this catas- trophe will not be decided by England alone." INTERESTING FACTS OF BASEBALL TEAMS (By Associated Press.) New York, Nov. 1. The records made by the major league clubs in runs, hits, errors and men left on the bases for the season just closed furnishes data for interesting study. In the National League, the Philadel- phia club which won the pennant made next to the largest number of runs with the smallest total of hits. The Phillies also had fewer men left on bases than "any other club and made next to the least number of er- rors. The Boston Braves were third in run making, seventh in hitting, first in number of stranded runners and made less errors than any of their rivals. St. Louis made the greatest number of runs ; Cincinnati led in hits, Chicago in errors and Boston in run- ners left. The Boston Red Sox, world's cham- pions and American League pennant winners, were third in the run mak ing m the junior league; nrst in to- tal number of hits; kept tneir errors down next to the lowest total but had more runners marooned than any oth- er club except Detroit. The Tigers, runner-u- p to the Red Sox, made more runs than any other American League combination; were second in hitting; fourth in errors and first in left on bases. The Chicago White Sox were second in run making; tnird in hits; third lowest in errors and scored low- est in base runners stranded. PACIFIC COAST MAY DEVELOP FAST RUNNER (By Associated Press.) New York, Nov. 1. Apparently the Pacific Coast is developing another cinder path fly iner Frank Sloman, the youth who recently broke the American Intrecolastic record for the quarter mile running that distance in 48 1-- 5 seconds. An idea of this school- boy's speed can be gathered from the fact that although thousands of 440 yard dashes have been run in the past firteen years the record has been broken three times. In 1901 C. Long set the time at 50 1-- 5 seconds where it remained until Ted Meredith cut it down to 48 4-- 5 seconds in 1912 while attending Mer-cersbu- rg Academy. Three years later Soloman cut three-fifths of a second off Meredith's time and if he contin- - ues to improve as Ted . . did after erad- - j j 47 uauon irom scnoiastic ranks, the Cal- ifornia lad will eventually rank with the great quarter milers of athletic history including Wendell Baker, Maxey Long, Reidpath, Lon Myers, Burke, Moulton, Taylor, Downs and Meredith. The French are going to use their absinthe for war munitions, thus pro- ving that the only way to fight li- quid fire is with worse liquid fire. Boston Transcript.

Australia, Nov. 1.- - When a delegation representing the Trades Hall Council of Melbourne waited upon Premier Fisher and ask- ed him for a pronouncement as to the attitude of the government toward conscription, Mr. Fisher declared that conscription would not be introduced in Australia unless the people of the commonwealth were given an oppor tunity of voting upon the question. He added that the government had no in tention of bringing ma bill dealing with conscription, and as for himself he was opposed to it. Throughout the hearing Mr. Fisher showed great impatience over the whole subject of conscription. He said : "So far as the government is con cerned it stands exactly as it has al ways stood. It is pledged under the defense act to raise our own men by levies for the defense of the domin ion." When a member of the delegation suggested that the allies of Great Britain might be pressing her to put a conscript army into the field, he re- plied with some heat, "They would not be .allowed any such imperti- nence." NEED NO WATCH Band of Carl Hagenbeck-Wallac- e Cir- cus Tells Time of Day. A crowd of prominent business men were talkine the other night and one of them familiar with the circus bus- iness asked if anyone had ever seen a member of a circus look at his watch while the performance was going on. None of them recalled having noted an incident and they marveled at the fact that a circus man does not need a trusty Ingersoll. "The tune of the band tells the tale," said the sneaker. "At the beginning of the season the bandmaster is fur- nished with a list of various acts and he arranges his musical program to suit. For instance, for the grand en- try, which immediately preceds the performance, the musicians play a stirring march. When the aerial acts are on a sort of a slow waltz is play- ed; when a particularly dangerous act is on we hear a weird, uncanny piece calculated to get on the nerves; such music alone is enough to fright- en one; when the horses rush about the hippodrome track in the races, a 'gallop' piece is played. There is a particular sort of music for each act. "The musical program is played day after day, and after a time the followers of the circus become accus- tomed to it. One of them can be two blocks awav from the show grounds and when his ear catches the music he can tell just how far the perform- ance has progressed and consequent- ly just what time it is." A great many people say that all circuses are alike. A visit to the Hagenbeck-Wallac- e Shows, when the big amusement aggregation comes to Hickory, Wednesday, November 10, will refute the statement. The Great Wallace Circus was for many years the leader in that form of entertain- ment just as the Carl Iiagenbeck Ani- mal Show was the largest animal show. Several years ago the two gigantic amusement enterprises were combined and it resulted in the larg- est circus organization in the world. Performances will be given at 2 and 8 p. m. Doors to the zoological par- adise will be opened an hour earlier. The parade is at 10 a. m. Joffre Returns to France. London, Nov. 1.

Amsterdam, Netherlands, Nov. 1.

Thrift, which is regarded as one ofthe chief virtues of the Dutch people,has not been affected by the war.Savings banks returns show that ofthe near 6,000,000 inhabitants includ-

ing men, women and children of theLowlands no fewer than 1,677,790 aredepositors in the posroSlce savingsbank and about 500,000 others in theagricultural loan banks and privatesavings banks making altogethernearly 2,200,000 depositors,-o- r oyerone in three of the entire population.

The war raging all around does notappear to have diminished the savingpower of the people to any appreci-able extent, if at all, for at the endof July this year the total of the de-

posits in the postoffice savings bankhad been reduced by only $2,217,863as compared with the same date in1914 namely, $71,347,980 as against$73,655,843. It is thought that mostof the reduction was brought aboutby depositors withdrawing their sav-

ings for investment in the new gov-ernment loans, which return a higherrate of interest.

WIRELESS TELEGRAPHY

ACROSS POLAR SEA

London, Nov. .1 Wireless teleg-raphy has opened a polar sea routefrom central Russia to Great Britain.Wireless stations established by theRusian government in the artictickeep the vessels advised as to thechannels freest from ice. Acting ontheir information, twt large vesselschartered by a Siberian trading comnany have just arrived at Grimsbywith cargoes from the Yenesei and Obidistricts of Central Siberia, valuedat $1,750,000.

The Obi and Yanesei are huge rivers with a great depth or water, taking steamers any size. But it wasnot until lately that their navigationwas put in practice.

Owing to the use of the trans-S- iberian railway by the Russian government for war supplies, there are d,000.000 tons of wheat held up in Siberia, besides enormous quantities ofother produce. If this can be got out,it will improve Russian exchange,which is now a serious problem amongthe allies-Ne- xt

year the company proposes totake about thirty steamers over thenew White sea route, laden with Si-

berian products. Even if the war endsbefore this time, it is pointed out thatthe Siberian railway will be more orless tied up with back business andthe returning of troops.

A Welcome Change."You look very smiling this morn-

ing, Binks," said Harkaway."I guess I ought to be. I went to

a fortune teller last night and sheprophesied immediate financial rever-ses," chortled Binks.

"I fail to see anything very joyousin that," said Harkaway.

"You would if you knew anythingabout my finances," said Binks. "I tellyou right now if they don't reversepretty dinged quick I'll be busted."

OF COLONIAL

EMP RE

(By Associated Press.)Budapest, Hungary, Nov. 1. "The

political and economical position ofGermany makes a great overseas co-

lonial empire an absolute necessity,"declares Herr Solf, the German min-ister of colonies, in an interview withthe correspondent of Azest. Afteremphasizing the importance of thepresent move in the Balkans fromthe point of view of German colonialpolicy, Herr Solf continues:

"It is necessary, for us not only tomaintain our previous colonial posses-sions, but even to increase them, ir-

respective of the European issues andof the settlement in Europe after thewar. Our motto will be, arter the con-clusion of the war, to establish a con-nected colonial empire destined to fillup the gaps in our economic life inaccordance with the necessities of ourposition.

"Our only enemy from a colonialpoint of view is England. How thefuture Germany overseas will be builtup depends on the result of our warwith England. At the very momentwhen we restore communications withthe Straits of Constantinople anddrive the allied forces into the sea inGallipoli, together with the Italiansand any others attaching themselvesto these, the events that will followwill develop like those in a well-WTit-t- en

play."The Turkish army will advance

through Asia Minor and Taurus, inorder to concentrate for a further ad-vance at Damascus. Every new armycorps which will pass through theKilikia gate of the city of Saladin willaggravate the terror of London. Onthe day when the English army on theNile, with the Australians, the Cana-dians, and the Indians capitulates be-

fore the Turks, or when they have toreembark at Alexandria, the world-pow- er

of England will sink into thedeep from Gibraltar to Singapore.What she will save out of this catas-trophe will not be decided by Englandalone."

INTERESTING FACTSOF BASEBALL TEAMS

(By Associated Press.)New York, Nov. 1. The records

made by the major league clubs inruns, hits, errors and men left onthe bases for the season just closedfurnishes data for interesting study.In the National League, the Philadel-phia club which won the pennantmade next to the largest number ofruns with the smallest total of hits.The Phillies also had fewer men lefton bases than "any other club andmade next to the least number of er-

rors. The Boston Braves were thirdin run making, seventh in hitting, firstin number of stranded runners andmade less errors than any of theirrivals. St. Louis made the greatestnumber of runs ; Cincinnati led in hits,Chicago in errors and Boston in run-ners left.

The Boston Red Sox, world's cham-pions and American League pennantwinners, were third in the run making m the junior league; nrst in to-tal number of hits; kept tneir errorsdown next to the lowest total but hadmore runners marooned than any oth-er club except Detroit. The Tigers,runner-u- p to the Red Sox, made moreruns than any other American Leaguecombination; were second in hitting;fourth in errors and first in left onbases. The Chicago White Sox weresecond in run making; tnird in hits;third lowest in errors and scored low-est in base runners stranded.

PACIFIC COAST MAYDEVELOP FAST RUNNER

(By Associated Press.)

New York, Nov. 1. Apparently thePacific Coast is developing anothercinder path fly iner Frank Sloman,the youth who recently broke theAmerican Intrecolastic record for thequarter mile running that distance in48 1-- 5 seconds. An idea of this school-boy's speed can be gathered from thefact that although thousands of 440yard dashes have been run in the pastfirteen years the record has beenbroken three times.

In 1901 C. Long set the time at 501-- 5 seconds where it remained untilTed Meredith cut it down to 48 4-- 5seconds in 1912 while attending Mer-cersbu- rg

Academy. Three years laterSoloman cut three-fifths of a secondoff Meredith's time and if he contin- -ues to improve as Ted

. . did after erad- -j j 47uauon irom scnoiastic ranks, the Cal-

ifornia lad will eventually rank withthe great quarter milers of athletichistory including Wendell Baker,Maxey Long, Reidpath, Lon Myers,Burke, Moulton, Taylor, Downs andMeredith.

CONSCRIPTION

UNLESS BY VOTE

(By Associated Press.)Melbourne. Australia, Nov. 1.--

When a delegation representing theTrades Hall Council of Melbournewaited upon Premier Fisher and ask-ed him for a pronouncement as to theattitude of the government towardconscription, Mr. Fisher declared thatconscription would not be introducedin Australia unless the people of thecommonwealth were given an opportunity of voting upon the question. Headded that the government had no intention of bringing m a bill dealingwith conscription, and as for himselfhe was opposed to it.

Throughout the hearing Mr. Fishershowed great impatience over thewhole subject of conscription. Hesaid :

"So far as the government is concerned it stands exactly as it has always stood. It is pledged under thedefense act to raise our own men bylevies for the defense of the dominion."

When a member of the delegationsuggested that the allies of GreatBritain might be pressing her to puta conscript army into the field, he re-

plied with some heat, "They wouldnot be .allowed any such imperti-nence."

NEED NO WATCH

Band of Carl Hagenbeck-Wallac- e Cir-cus Tells Time of Day.

A crowd of prominent business menwere talkine the other night and oneof them familiar with the circus bus-iness asked if anyone had ever seen amember of a circus look at his watchwhile the performance was going on.None of them recalled having notedan incident and they marveled at thefact that a circus man does not needa trusty Ingersoll.

"The tune of the band tells the tale,"said the sneaker. "At the beginningof the season the bandmaster is fur-nished with a list of various acts andhe arranges his musical program tosuit. For instance, for the grand en-

try, which immediately preceds theperformance, the musicians play astirring march. When the aerial actsare on a sort of a slow waltz is play-ed; when a particularly dangerousact is on we hear a weird, uncannypiece calculated to get on the nerves;such music alone is enough to fright-en one; when the horses rush aboutthe hippodrome track in the races,a 'gallop' piece is played. There is aparticular sort of music for each act.

"The musical program is playedday after day, and after a time thefollowers of the circus become accus-tomed to it. One of them can be twoblocks awav from the show groundsand when his ear catches the musiche can tell just how far the perform-ance has progressed and consequent-ly just what time it is."

A great many people say that allcircuses are alike. A visit to theHagenbeck-Wallac- e Shows, when thebig amusement aggregation comes toHickory, Wednesday, November 10,will refute the statement. The GreatWallace Circus was for many yearsthe leader in that form of entertain-ment just as the Carl Iiagenbeck Ani-mal Show was the largest animalshow. Several years ago the twogigantic amusement enterprises werecombined and it resulted in the larg-est circus organization in the world.Performances will be given at 2 and8 p. m. Doors to the zoological par-adise will be opened an hour earlier.The parade is at 10 a. m.
