The objects cut gerents have in mind, the president points out, are virtually the same as stated in general terms to their people and to the world, but yet the concrete objects of the war "have never definitely stated." "It may be," continues the note, that the terms which belligerents "that peace is nearer than we know; on the one side and on the other would deem it necessary to insist upon are not so irreconcilable as some have feared; that an interchange of views would clear the way at least for ference and make the permanent concord of the nations a hope of the immediate future, a concert of nations immediately practicable." There are indicacions that President Wilson began preparation of his note some time ago, probably even before the German proposals came out, and that offer central powers and the succeeding developments made a more favorable opportunity for its presentation. The fact that the president asks first only a clarification of terms is taken as indicating that he is not expecting an immediate conclusion. In a war involving so many conflicting interests, not only between the two belligerent groups but even between nations of the same group, it is realized that much time may be needed even to bring about the mere preliminaries of a conference.

It is desired, therefore, to clear away as many of those preliminaries as possible so that when a solution is near, either by victory or exhaustion, not a day of needless slaughter may be necessary. Officials expect the note to be received with general favor in Germany, but many believe the real test will come with its arrival in the entente countries, where many influential persons have feared and sought to prevent any American intervention until the military situation changed. the fact, however, that LloydGeorge's reply to the central powers was. milder than generally had been expected and still left the way open for further negotiations, it is believed that the allies will meet the present note in at least. a friendly spirit.

WHO IS MINUS A COAT? Police Sergeant Picks Up Fancy Raiment on Water Plug Following Street Fight. One well-tailored, perfectly good overcoat of 1916 model, a fancy scarf and a pair of new gloves await the arrival of the owner at city hall this morning. They were found by Police Sergeant Davis, on a water-plug WHERE'S THE NEXT CORNER?" ASKS INEBRIATE "Say, gents, I'm purty, full, but I'm from Bellwood wanDa git the Tyrone car--where does she stop?" asked a big bulk of a chap last evening when he paused in front of Cornermen Dean and Graybill, at Eleventh avenue and Eleventh street. "Over there," indicated one of the traffic cops, with a wave of his hand, and then turned to take care of a stream of vehicles. "Shay, brother, where's the nex' corner?" hiccoughed the same inquisitor a half minute later.

And Officer Dean wheeled about to find the Bellwooder confronting him again. The copper showed sympathy for the stranger and aided him on his way once more. Before the inebriate reached Green avenue, he slipped dangerously on icy sidewalks twice, embraced a male pedestrian, dodged two motor cars, lost his hat and then arrived soon enough to in the down the avenue. see Tyrone, car disappearing The fellow clung to an electric light standard for fifteen minutes to prevent straying away from the elusive "nex' corner," until another car arrived. at Eighth avenue and Eleventh street, this morning, following a street fight.

Y. W. Vaughn and P. E. Hoyer were arrested by the sergeant and Patrolman Dunn, at 1.30 o'clock.

Five men were engaged in the melee when the officers first appeared. Three hastily picked up their cast-off coats and other raiment and fled, while one left his overcoat, on the water-plug. Hoyer left $15.80 security and his companion was locked up. It is said the fight followed a dance at the Trainmen's home. David Harvey, Bertha Campbell and Harry Henderson were arrested at 12.20 this morning at Harvey's home, 2318 Ninth avenue, after a squabble following a beer frolic.

Patrolman Bell made charges of disorderly conduct against the trio, whose actions and outcries aroused the neighborhood. SNOW BIRDS BEING FED BY SPORTSMEN Great Practical Step Is Taken in Song and Insect Bird Conservation While many worthy plans are in effective operation in the county to relieve the sufferings of poor and needy humans during winter weather, the bird committee of the Blair County Game, Fish and Forestry association is turning attention to caring for the dumb creatures. By a well organized and working scheme, the snow birdies of the county are being fed from twentyeight feeders installed in the parks and open places about the county. The feeders will be a godsend to the little creepers, nuthatches, woodpeckers and numerous brave songsters and insect eaters that remain to face starvation when the snow -blanket covers earth and robs them of their source of food supply. The boys belonging to the junior auxiliary of the organization are to the front in the bird conservation work.

Every Saturday since winter opened and continuing until spring, the feeders will be filled by a squad of youngsters who tramp about with sacks of grain for the birds. Through the efforts of the associathe tion, wild Beaver turkeys dams in are the being vicinity fed and of arrangements are under way to take care of quail and pheasants in as far as they can be reached.

J. F. Stouffer, of that address, and entertained the aged folks in a social manner. A sumptuous supper was enjoyed by a dozen participants, including J. F.

Myton against such a move and their stand seemingly backed by the great bulk of in for one of the biggest municipal the tax payers, the city is apparently government fights in its history. The general sentiment about the city is highly favorable to Herbert and his retention.

Many citizens go further and siege upon the issue as an opportunity to express their condemnation for has unquestionably been an unpopular regime at city hall Talk Referendum. Popular talk on the newest municipal issue to occupy the of the people, mentioned frequently yesterday the term referendum, many persons claiming that it would be justifiable and highly desirable make this opportunity for an initial referendum vote under the provisions of the Clark act, if an ordinance is introduced that would oust Herbert. To put the question before the people by such a vote would mean that twenty per cent. of the taxpayers of the city would be required to go to city hall and sign the request for a vote on the question. The concensus of opinion around city hall yesterday was to the effect that the three commissioners against Herbert are determined, and will put the thing through by introducing and passing an ordinance to fill his position with a bacteriologist or graduate physician.

None of the three commissioners would admit that their were shaped to this end, but neither would they deny that they had I determined on ousting Herbert. All three commissioners are inflexible in their expressed opinion that the health officer grave take by not telling madem of the shipment of infected cream received in the city last fall which they feel had something with the tytondo phoid outbreak. Shelley for Herbert. While Director Shelley shares with the three other commissioners the opinion that Herbert did not lay all information available before them when they were in conference last September, he does not consider this as sufficient and just cause for throwing him from office. Mr.

Shelley stated last evening that he considered Herbert a good man, that he had been faithful and his years of experience made him far more valuable than the techinally educated man who could, be brought and know nothing about conditions."

TINY BABE ESCAPES DEATH IN BAD FALL Child of Leonard Sollers, Aged Ten Months, Plunges Down Cellar Way Creeping to the head of the cellar steps, a 10-month-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Leonard Sollers, of 512 Sixteenth street, fell down the first three steps yesterday morning and tumbling off the third step, sideways to the concrete floor cellar below.

Its escape from death was miraculous. The child was unconscious for a half hour and while it was feared at first that it was in a critical condition, under the treatment of the family physician it regained consciousness and last evening seemed to be improved. The nose of the tot is likely broken and was so swollen that it breathed with difficulty. It was a few minutes before 10 o'clock that the child, when the attention of the members of the family was diverted for a moment, crept into the cellarway and after rolling down the first few steps, crashed face downward to the concrete floor of the cellar. Child Burned.

Jay Gerlock, the 3-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Walter Gerlock, of Fifth avenue and Thirty-sixth street, is suffering at the family home from scalds of the back and shoulders received on Monday afternoon when he fell backwards into a bucket of hot water.

RECORDS BROKEN AT EMPLOYMENT OFFICE State Branch at Commerce Building Besieged by Work Seekers All records were broken at the state employment office in the, Commerce building when twenty-four applications were filed by men seeking work.

General managers and operating heads of the gulf and south Atlantic railroads have decided to petition the interstate commerce commission for authority to put into effect at gulf and south Atlantic ports rules which would reduce the free time on through -bill freight in cars from ten to five days. President's Peace Move Springs a Big Surprise (Continued from Page 1) while to the entente allies he says his note is "in no way associated with them." To both sets of belligerents he says he "would have delayed offering it until those overtures have been answered but for the fact that it also concerns the question of peace and may thus be considered in connection with other proposals which have the same in view." Diplomatists consider it incredible that the president would bring forward such at such time unlesproppeal had reason to believe it would receive respectful consideration at the hands of all the belligerents and above all would not prejudice the position of the United States as a possible mediator. The German embassy view, consistently hopeful that proposals of the central allies would lead to a discussion of peace was expressed in this authorized statement by Count Bernstorff, the German ambassador: "Now," said he, "I am perfectly convinced that there will be a conference." The nearest parallel in world history for President Wilson's action was President Roosevelt's move in 1905 to end the war between Russia and Japan. But in that case, the president had been assured his proposal would not be disagreeable to either of the belligerents and curiously enough it was through Emperor William, of Germany, that the preliminary soundings crystallized into the suggestion that President Roosevelt take the steps. Those in official circles who would discuss the notes thought it worthy of attention that President Wilson, after saying his acticn had long been in mind, added: "The president can only beg that.

dis suggestion be considered entireon its own merits and as if it bad been made in other circumstances." The president looks forward in the notes to the part the neutrals shall take in assuring future peace of the world. He expresses justification in "suggesting an immediate opportunity for a comparison of views as to the terms which must precede those ultimate arrangements the peace of the world, which all desire, and in which the neutral nations as GIRL FRACTURES ARM EXERCISING Miss Levanda Ainesworth Falls in Gymnasium of Central Grammar Falling ten days ago while exercising in the gymnasium of the Central Grammar school, Seventh avenue and Fifteenth street, Miss Levanda Ainesworth, aged 16, of Howard avenue and Fourth street, sustained a fracture of the left arm. She had the fracture, reduced Ainesworth, who yesterday. is a student at the school, with a number of companions was doing some sprinting in the gymnasium, when the young lady missed her footing in performing a series of muscular feats, falling heavily on the left side of her body. For several days she suffered considerable pain in the region of the arm, but gave it little concern.

Yesterday the arm pained the girl intensely and going to the office of Dr. John Snyder, on Howard avenue, she discovered that she had fractured the arm. The physician reduced the fracture. MAN HAS ARM BROKEN. David Reese, of South Altoona, Fractures Member While Going Down Steps.

David R. Reese, aged 34, of South Altoona, sustained a fracture of the right arm last evening shortly after 6 o'clock, when he fell down 8 Alight of steps leading from his home to that of a neighbor. Reese, who has met with 8. number of recent misfortunes, just recently recovered from an attack of pneumonia, and was out for the first time yesterday. From the Reese home to that of a neighbor there is constructed a flight of steps, over which a thin coat of ice had gathered.

In making his way down the steps Reese fell his head on the boards and in addition to having the arm broken just above the elbow, he sustained a number of face lacerations and a badly contused back. The Electric Fan. Back in the early eighties Dr. S. S.

Wheeler, an electrical engineer of New York, was experimenting with a small electric motor. In the course of his experiments the doctor conceived the idea that steamboats might be run with electricity if the propellers could be directly connected to high speed electric motors, doing away with a all the gears then in use in steam propulsion. With this idea in mind he bad a small screw propeller constructed and fastened it the armature shaft of his small motor. To big surprise, the experiment resulted in a fine breeze of cooling air which more than delighted the experimenter, for the day was decidedly hot. It is needless to add that the experiments with screw propellers ended right there, and the engineer took up the study of the electric fan.

with the result that he soon perfected the device until it was a commercial success. Mill Girls and Shawls. The working women and girls of Lancashire and Yorkshire regard the shawl as a necessity, and especially 1s this the case in the colliery districts. A writer in an English monthly says: "Domestic duties, performed in varying temperatures, on washing days and cleaning days, in the house or about the yard, are rendered safe under the protection of a shawl The mill girl could scarcely get on without it. It shields her between the mill and home, winter and summer, in snow or rain.

It 1s easily donned and doffed. It is the bandiest of all articles of wearing apparel and, as made in England today, is moderate in cost. A warm soft shawl would save many a racking cough and stave off incipient pulmonary troubles. It is a tried and proved sanatarian." The Onion. There is nothing particularly poetical about the onion, but Shakespeare has several references to this "edible biennial bulbous root," defined by Johnson simply as "a plant." The bard's comments are, however, mostly concerned with the lachrymal properties, and Swift refers to it in a cookery book manner, advising that it be well boiled if we do not wish our kissing to be spoiled.

Beaumont and Fletcher, however, in "The Mad Lover," make a direct reference to its medicinal virtues: "The plague." "Ill cure it with an onion." Maddening. "They really fear she will become insane. You see, she found a diary he kept before he married her." "Oh, I see! And the awful No. It was all in cipher, and she couldn't read a word of It." -London Tit-Bits. Gained Her Object.

There's method in some people's seeming miserliness, although the reason for 80 much privation does not strike ordinary folk as sufficient. A Swiss village owes its fine peal of bells to this sort of self sacrifice. About ten years ago a widow who had lived in great misery for no less than fifty years went to the commune and presented it with over $4,000 for a peal of bells for the old church. She had saved the amount penny by penny, dressing like beggar and starving herself. She said she had gained the object of her life.

1006 Chestnut Ave. (with Russell Rigg) Altoona's Only Columbia Store MAN INJURED WHEN PINNED UNDER ROCK John Voparitz, of Wertz, in Altoona Hospital With Broken Ribs Pinned under an immense rock which he was about to blast with a fuse, John Voparitz, aged 38, an Austrian stone loader at the quarries of the American Steel and Wire company, Wertz, was admitted to the Altoona hospital last evening at 9 o'clock, suffering from a possible fracture of three ribs and a broken left arm. Voparitz had been instructed to assist another workman in dynamiting a large rock immediately over the crest of the large precipice facing toward Wertz. With a pick he loosened a little earth around the rock, which was one of immense proportions and underneath which there had been placed several other sticks of dynamite by mean of a tunnel. He had scarcely more than removed a little of the earth until the rock rolled off its foundation and with a crash fell in the direction of the Austrian, who had but time to keep his entire body from being pinned under the rock and falling debris.

Three ribs on the right side are believed to be broken and the arm was fractured immediately above the elbow. An X-ray examination will be made today in an effort to ascertain the exact injuries sustained, which are not believed to be immediately serious. Licenses.
