NO PATENT ON NOISE.
Now and then the courts render a
decision that wins the applause of
the multitude. Of this type is the
verdict of the United States Circuit
Court of Appeals that the weird, hair
lifting noises emitted by automobile
horns are not patentable.
Judge Coxe, a wise and upright
judge, made that ruling In declining
to protect the property rights of a
genius who had evolved a device for
an automobile of which the court
said: “A racket wheel revolving on
the upturned bottom of a tin pan
would produce a somewhat similar
result.”
When skipping across the road
away from a gas wagon, it may be
some satisfaction to know that the
awful noise pursuing us is not patent
ed, and we can have it if we want it.

ABOUT BARBARA FRITCHIE.
They are having a real war in Mary
land over the question as to wheth
er the story of Barbara Fritchie is
a fact or a myth. A monument to
the heroine of Whittier’s poem is to
be unveiled in Frederick in Septem
ber and that has started the contro
versy.
But why quarrel .about the details?
History has supplied proof that an
ancient dame named Fritchie did re
side in Frederick and insisted upon
flying a union flag from her house
while the Confederates were march
ing through. The dialogue between
jBiH'bat'rt and Stonewall Jackson Is
not supported by any very strong
Corroborative evidence. Whittier's
poem, a spur to patriotism and love
of the flag, is worthy of commem
oration in a Fritchie monument, even
if all the details do not groove in
with cold matters of record. I.et’s
allow something for poetic license
and go ahead with the Fritchie mon
ument.

War Council Held.
Kaiser William and the war lords
of Germany have held frequent con
ferences since the return of the Em
peror from Norway. The prepara
tions for war continue and it is ex
pected that Germany will be drawn
into the conflict at an early date.
The people are adverse to the war,
but the military party is in control
and will force the declaration of war
if Russian troops invade Austria.
Greeks to Help Servians.
CONSTANTINOPLE, July 28.—
•Greek ambassador to Turkey an
nounced hert, today that because of
the offensive and defensive treaty
between Servia and Greece his coun
try would send 100,000 troops into
Servia to help them fight Austria.
The troops are sow in Albania and
ready to rush through to Servia, where
the stand will «« taken and the ad
vance southward, of the Austrian
empire stayed if the Balkan states
can prevent it.
Wheat Market Excited.
CHICAGO, July 28.—When the an
nouncement was made here on the
wheat exchange frantic scenes fol
lowed. Wheat rose and fell as the
rumors and contradictions of the
opening of hostilities were received
on the tickers. Men tore up their
hats and yelled like wild as they saw
fortunes lost and made. Wheat sold
eight cents a bushel higher at the
close of the market than at the
start, and 12,000,000 bushels changed
hands.
Montreal Exchange Closes Doors.
MONTREAL, July 28.—Prices
broke so badly on the exchange here
that the management were forced to
close the doors to save the brokers
who were carrying stock short. The
bottom dropped absolutely from un
der the market, all the financiers
trying to beat each other in unload
ing. None could cover or protect
the market and the board of man
agers closed the doors at 1:S0 this
afternoon.
LONDON, July 28.—All European
markets are closed. Stocks and bonds
can be bought 100 points under yes
terday’s prices. The bankers, realiz
ing that conditions will grow worse
as more powers are drawn into the
war, will not advance funds on the
best securities or make any loans.
