The ladies of the Red Cross Society of Yarker, Moscow and Colebrook realize that the wounded soldiers are in need of many things, and are en- deavoring to raise money in various Ways. Last May the society raised about $200, which was handed over to the head of the Red Cross Society of Can- ada. It is the intention of the ladies that $100 of the sum raised will be given towards buying the motor ambulance which is being donated by the people of Lennox and Addington. On Wednesday afternoon a number of Yarker ladies went out through the district and sold tickets and re- ceived donations forthe tables.

Buffalo, Oct. 15--A man who says he is Robert Mantell, ir, of New York, a son of the Shakesper- ian actor, is locked up in a police station here on a charge of attempt- ed suicide, In a statement to the police, he said he wanted to die be- couse his money was .all gone, and he could not get work. "I am out of funds, and my friends have all left-me," he said. Mantell came to Buffalo -about a week ago, and enrolled at the State Employment Bureau for work. He told the clerk in charge he was a son of Robert Mantell, the actor, that he was 32 years old, and down and out. A farmer was in the office at the time, and he was attracted by the | story the man told and offered him a | job as a farm hand. Mantell ac- cepted it eagerly. Evidently he did not keep his pro- mise {o report at the farm. He has been staying for several days at a Pearl street rooming house. Late this afternoon he walked down street until just opposite the police | station. Then he pulled a bottle | containing tincture of iodine from | his pocket and drank it. Two police- | mép saw him and ran to his aid just as he fell. An ambulance was call- | ed and the man was rushed to a hos- { pital. An hour later the surgeons | said the man was out of danger. Mantell was sent back to the police station, and locked up. He begged the police not to let his family in | New York know|of the deed. » { { i HUNGARY NOT ENTHUSING. the; | Balkan Adventure Is Not Destroying * Rubsian Armies, Budapest, Oct. 15.--There is no enthusiasm in Hungary and even less in Austria for the fresh enterprise | the joint military headquarters have undertaken from strategic or politi- cal reasons in the Balkans. The peo- ple are, of course, delighted to have Bulgaria on the side of the Central Empires, but they are concerned to see their own people employed in adventune which may interfere with their one hope and ambition--the de- struction of Russian armies. This has not been accomplished, as every sane minded person now rea- lizes, and as they cannot see in the new enterprise anything else but German political ambitions in the Near East--ambitions with which Hungary has nothing in common -- those representing public opinion in Hungary outside the limits of the ar- my are not only not enthusiastic but somewhat 'weary. ! i | Sakell's Pure Our Ice Cream is the b by Government Test.
