Sept. war front is now transferred to Ireland," Eamonn De Valera, president of the Irish republic, declared in a statement here today, commenting on the closing of toe Sinn Fein parliament and the raids by British troops on Sinn Fein centers. "If law and order is all that is wanted in Ireland, it can be had within twenty-four hours," De Valera said. The alien government of Great Britain has only to withdraw its army of occupation. The war front is now transferred to Ireland, where Viscount French, one time commander in France and the former chief of staff, Sir William Robertson, are now in command.

"The suppression by armed forces of the congress of the freely elected representatives of the Irish people is a comentary on England's desire to make the world safe for democracy. The activities of the suppressed congress were directed toward the development of the nations' resources and bhe organization of production. "One of the arrested cabinet members is minister of trade." De Valera outined the recent decrees of the Sinn Fein congress as follows: "Appointment of a commisison to survey Ireland's industrial possibilities; decision to establish a consular system to promote direct trading with America and countries; proposal to purchase farms for 'landless' men who otherwise would be forced to emigrate; development of the fishing industry; fixing of an arbor day and appointment of an inspector ot afforestation." "It is probable the parliament's activity on national reconstruction work bhat has caused Its suppression by the British government," De Valera said. "But the British cannot suppress the whole Irish people, and Ireland will never acknowledge an alien authority." Commtnitloiirr uiovp Plan-en Threr Men ruder 93.OOO Bond. Robert Louis Waren and Setb iiay- ruond when arrainged before United States Comissioner Whitmore Saturday afternoon pleaded guilty to a complaint filed by Federal District Ator- ney Allen charging them with ing into the postofflce at Bethany September 1.

R. B. Kyan, the third defendent, pleaded not guiltyp and waived a preliminary examination. The commissioner fixed a bond of the 1 three men at $3,000 each. Ryan was represented by F.

M. Tyrrell. Tlie thre men were arrested a short time ago in connecion with a stolen i automobile. Among their effects was a grip containing burglars tools. A report that an attempt had been made to rob the Bethany postoffice led the county and federal officers to make an investlgationarid it led to the conviction that the men were implicated in the Bethany job.

The men first insisted that the burglar tools were the property of a fourth man who had been in the automobile with them. The officers say that Robert Louts Warren and Seth -Raymond, the tw6 men pleading guilty, before the United States commissioner, implicated R. B. Ryan in the burglary. Postoffice Inspector Randall said that the three men have been traced and their records are known.

Ryan had several days growth of black beard on his face when he appeared before the commissioner. The men were cheerful and asked for something to smoke after the hearing. They were furnished with cigarets. The automobile was stolen from a farmer who was attending the state fair. It was a new Buick.

The burglar tools (are now in possesion of the postoffice inspector. Experts say that they are complete set A fourth man known as "John Doe" was named in the complaint. Chicago Rimer of (From Shannon Grain Cn 1 Open I Close Teat. 'sept. 141 142 Dec.

Have No Clew to Identity o( Who fired Bullet Into Lee Coplen. Who killed Lee Coplen? It appears now that this question will never be answered. Three weeks ago, on Saturday, August 23, the young man breathed his last at a Lincoln hospital. The following Monday evening an inquest was held and the coroner's jury returned a verdict to the effect that death was due to a gunshot wound inflicted at the hands of an unknown man. Since then the officers have been untiring in their efforts to solve the mystery surrounding the indentity of the man who fired a bullet from an automatic revolver into the breast of Coplen, but all without avail.

They have no more information now than they had at the moment the young man expired. It was at about 11 o'clock on the evening of Friday, August 22, that three young men, Merle Shuck, Dwght Young and Lee Stevens, appeared at the office of Dr. Jester at Bethany, saying that they had in their car outside a man who had been shot. The wounded man was Coplen and he was assisted into the office of the doctor, who made a hurried examination and ordered the patient taken to a hospital. It was found that there was a bullet wound over the heart and that the condition of the man was serious.

At the Lincoln hospital an operation was performed, but Coplen died at 8 o'clock the following morning. The testimony given at the inquest, disclosed that Coplen, Shuck, Young and Stevens lived upon or had been employed upon farms east of the city and that they had taken automobile rides together at night. On the night of the shooting they were going south in a car on the road runing in that direction from street about a halt mile oast of Wyuka cemetery. They saw a car standing beside the road with the lights turned off and in the oar were a man and a woman. As they approached it they slowed up and had almost, if not quite stopped, when Coplen called to the occupants of the other automobile and asked them what was going on.

The man made some answer which was not understood, when Coplen opened the door of the car and started to get out. Two of the men with him stated that he was on the runing.board and the other stated that he was on the ground when the man in the other automobile fired. As soon as the shot was fired the other car pulled out at a good rate of speed and Coplen'a companions failed to see the license number. Neither could they give any description whatever of the man or woman nor tell what kind of car they occupied. No word or syllable has ever since been heard of the pair, tho the officers were hopeful that In view ot the circumstances surounding and preceding the tragedy the man would come forward and reveal his Identity.

At a postmortem examination following the death of Coplen, the bullet which had caused hia death, was found by the surgeons. It had entered over the heart and had ranged downward and backward, tearing a hole In the stomach. It was from a .25 caliber automatic revolver, the officers stated. Investigations made by the officers brought to light the fact that young men had been In the hbit of stopping automobiles in which men and women were riding and making themselves obnoxious to couples found with cars along the roads east of the city. One case was reported where a woman had been taken from the man with whom she was riding and bad been criminally assaulted.

The three young mne who were with Coplen when he received the wound which ended his testified at the inquest that they had either stopped cars or had "visited" with the men and women they found in automobiles beside the roads. It was concluded -by those -who investigated the case that the man who shot Coplen believed that he and his companion were about to be assaulted and robbed or that even worse treatment confronted them and on this account he fired and fled.

DUBLIN, Sept. Raids by Brit ish troops on Sinn Fein organizations and the homes of heir leaders one inued in the southern part of Ireland today. At Cork the home of David Kent, a member of the Sinn Fein parliament, was searched. Sinn Fein leaders were -bitter over the government proclamation suppressing the Daily Bireann, or Irish parliament. Several of them intimated that Ireland would be the scene of fresh disorders as a result.

Arthur Griffith, vice president of the Sinn Fein, announced today that the Irish parliament would float a loan of in Ireland in conjunction with the. loan being raised by Eamonn De Valera in the Uniteu States. Griffith said that 200,000 soldiers now composed the British garrison in Ireland. The proclamation suppressing the parliament and declaring it a dangerous association, followed the raids conducted on Sinn Fein headquarters in various cities. Among the documents seized were the reports submitted by Frank P.

Walsh, Edward F. Dunne and Michael Ryan, American investigators. Motor Lorries, filled with prisoners seized yesterday, arrived early today from nearby districts. At seveal places crowds stoned the police guarding the prisoners. but were kep at a distance when troops charg-ed them with fixed bayonets and threatened to fife.

Troops remained on guard today, their bayonets in pla.ce and rifles loaded. Machine guns were ready for use yesterday and tanks were being held as reserves at strategic points, but their use was not reported. "No jails, bullets or bayonets will prevent the dail eireann representatives from performing their duty." Griffith said today. "If the government proceeds with its program of su- pression the world will get its bett lesson in miltarism. The government's action is a sign of weakness and panic."

Scores of Women in homes, stores, offices and factories are not fit to be at work.

They toil on day after day and year after year suffering with distressing weaknesses and derangements, hoping against hope that they will soon feel better, but how can they hope to do good work or escape permanent invalidism? Such women are in danger of derangement of women's functions. They owe it to themselves to try that good old fashioned root and herb remedy Lydia E.
