There iias been no hint of such set backs in the Italian reports of the past day or two, and the Austrian statement possibly refers to ground admittedly lost temporarily by the Italians a few days ago in both these sectors. The tone of the recent Ital ian statements has been confident, especially as regards the fighting In the San Gabriele region, where an Italian victory virtually was predicted. It is conceded, however, that the Italian troops are engaged in an extraordinarily severe struggle, with tremen dous obstacles to overcome before anj success they win can be said to have become decisive.

POCKETING SUGAR LONDON PRACTICE Diners Out Slip a Few Lumps Into Mesh Bags or Pockets. GUARDING AGAIXST FAMINE. U-Bouta Have Sunk Many Sugar Ships nd the Cubes Are Precious Now.

Saxe. It was many years ago, at "a fa mous Flemish Inn," that the candle Incident occurred. Now the British diners out, according to some Associated Press correspondence from London, are pocketing the lump sugar served by hotels and restaurants. The Idea is to lay up a supply of sweetening; for a day when it may be harder to obtain or, on the part of non-sugar eating individuals, for friends who like more than they are allowed. The custom is practiced all over the city and In all classes of places where tea and food are served.

German submarines lately seem to have been especially active against ships that happened to be carrying sugar, with the result that, while there is enough to go around, the supplies for the future are none too large. Tea and coffee are served with Just the allowed weight of sugar, usually set alongside the cups in separate containers and usually consisting of halves or thirds of lumps. It is these pieces of lumps that most often are Been disappearing Into the gold, silver and leather handbags of the women and the waistcoat pockets of the men. Sugar served for berries or other food is hard to pocket. Nearly always it is of the cru.de variety and very sticky; but collectors of sugar even carry off this kind with them, having a convenient envelope or a little cloth bag ready for it.

Lump sugar is much more popular, however, and in the mesh bags of women in London's streets and hotels the white cubes, or pieces of them, can be seen mingling with keys, treasury notes, odd change, powder puffs and other things. A new arrival In London who does not take sugar In his or her tea is sure quickly to be asked to "save up" for some friend with a so-called sweet-tooth. BROOKLYNITE IS OUT OF PLATTSBURG CAMP One Brooklyn student was discharged today and four others ccon-cerned in the list of eight final transfers.

There is quite a large number of Brooklyn men in the Coast Artillery Corps. Their names were printed in The Eagle last Tuesday.

This corps will leave here on September 22 for Fort (Monroe, where the training will be continued. Because of the prevalence of infan tile paralysis in the State of Vermont, Colonel Wolf has again warned the students against going over there on visits, and the order further prohibits the families of civilians working on the post reservation from entering that State except upon the written authority of the commanding officer. About or tne students, many with relatives and friends, attended a moving picture show at the camp stadium tonight, at which war films were shown. At the concert tomor row evening George Hamlin, the tenor, and Jayne Herbert, prima donna, of the Century Opera Company, will be the entertaining artists.

Likes to Talk of His Motherland Not Above Helping in the Housework. A. writing In the London Chronicle, pays this tribute to the American young man Jonathan Jun- ne Btyies him "Jonathan Junior Is the only young man 1 know who is thoroughly at ease in his shirtsleeves. Our own university under-graduates are quite at case In a i tetchy turne, hut It takes him.

it has a for his watch and another for his fountain pen; he expends thought on his waistband with excellent results, his collar is what he calls 'a his tie matches his socks and the stripe in his shirt, and he would die rather than expose the stud he fastens his collar with. I am thinking solely of under- graduates; I have met hundreds of them in various State universities, and my built-up picture of young Jonathan a waistcoat or braces. "On the very top of his mind lie two ideas; reverence for his" own mother and courtesy for all women, i Our un-dergrads have these virtues also, but perhaps they do not expose them so freely. Young Jonathan loves to talk of his mother, and she, he always tells you, is the most wonderful and adorable of women; very often she really is. Then, Just under these two easily-discovered ideas, comes another, and the correlation is easy; he is amazingly domesticated, and he is never ashamed of it.

The only bit of advice I ever give English people who are going to the Stales for the first time is "Become a good mixer." I shall never forget when we arrived in California for a summer, two hefty young men bringing up the heavy baggage to our little suite In the hotel, shaking hands with me and telling me how vurry, vurry gled they wur ti wallcum me ti the li'l Staate Oonuvursity tawn. They said they hed jaist hed the playsure uv meeting the pro-faysur below, an' wur now hastening aff to the furst lalcture. From that soul-stlrring moment on I labored to become a good mixer, to be friends with everybody, to shake hands with the quaintest-looking people and never under any circumstances to appear surprised.

This simplicity of outlook may be quite lacking in the big cities; I do not know; I am writing only of what I have seen in the West and Middle West. Someone has to keep these dainty homes clean; the mothers and tne girls are busy cooking, washing and Ironing, so Jonathan junior lends a hand, and nobody thinks the worse or the better of him for It. Personal responsibility has been dinned into him ever since, at 3 years of age, he was given a towel of his own and the charge of his own hands, face and knees; wheifhe tumbled he had to pick himself up and begin again; America is a nurseless land. From an incredibly early age he has realized that he is a citizen, owing certain duties to his family and to the State. I stjmetlmes think that Jonathen junior talks so much about having a good time just because his life, apart from holidays, is, as a rule, rather a more strenuous affair for him than for his cousin John junior over hero.

I do not mean that he roughs it better or more uncomplainingly; young England Is top of the tree at that game; but he has to be a handier man about fhe house, and ho has more steady domestic responsibilities. It is part of h'8 self-expression; it is also one nf Inp rpn nna Vint mnlra a of the reasons that make Jonathan a perfect lover and husband MAYOR Gl'EST OF CIVIC CLUB.

ESTIMATED $5,000 AX ACRE. Fixed Thh? by Averaging Prices of Xeorliy Lots Borrowed From Greve. Charles 3'Malley. real estate expert In the office of Controller Prendergast, who made the appraisal of the Seaside Park property at Rockaway, afterward acquired by the city, spent three days inspecting the nroDertv. according to a staement made by him last night.

Mr. O'Malley emphatically denied statements given out recently by Assistant District Attorneys Black and Kliroe, who quoted him as having said that he made no nersonal visit to the Seaside Park property. Dut Dased his-appraisal on facts submitted, to him by William M. Greve vioe president of the Neponsit Realty Company. "Durlncr thn rnrlv nirt nf 1911' said O'Malley, "I was milieu uy vviiiiam A.

Prendergast, Controller of the City of New York, to advise him, regarding the value of approximately 250 acres of land. ad-Joining what was then known as' Neponsit Park, owned by the Neponsit Realty Company, and pursuant to these instructions I spent three days in inspecting the premises betore coming to a conclusion. In this connection, I requested from William M. GreVe. Who I thlnlr una then vlA president of the company, a list of the sales of all lots made by this company and the names of the owners xnis statement was furnished to me by Mr.

Greve, and'' contained the numbers of the lots, and the prices paid for all the lots sold by the Neoonsit Renltv in noii- developments up to July 21," 1911. i peuevea at tnat time, and still am of the opinion, that the prices RhOWn nnt this lint ara nonnlna anil can be verified from the books of the iNeponsit Keaity company, as well as from the purchasers. Says Lots Were Worth $1,900. "It Is a fact that, depending upon the location of the lot, the average size of which is 20x100 feet, excepting those fronting on the ocean, which have an adidtlonal depth, the price of each lot varied anywhere from $800 to $1,900, Indicating a minimum acreage value of $12,800 to a maximum acreage value of $20,000. "Covering a period of three days, i examined all of these lots and then come to the conclusion that the property would in condemnation proceedings $5,000 per acre, and I so advised the Controller.

It should be borne in mind that the sales of the Neponsit Realty Company were the only sales in the immediate neighborhood of the property acquired by the city. As a matter of fact, it immediately adjoined this property. It is well recognized among real estate experts that the basis for fixing the value of real essfte.is by the knowledge of sales In tthe Immediate neighborhood, and It would, therefore, have been absurd to have considered the sales of property remotely situated from the park property, 'Furthermore, this property was appraised for the city by such well-known appraisers as E. C. M.

Fitzgerald, who was, during his lifetime, one of the best-known developers of like property In the City of New York, and he appraised the same at the rate of $5,50 per acre. Robert E. Simon, who is connected with the firm of Henry Morgenthau, and Joseph P. Day also appraised the parq property at $5,000 per acre. "When the Condemnation Commission was appointed by a Justice of the Supreme Court, real estate experts were engaged by the city and other appraisers were employed by the property owners.

Upon the conclusion of the evidence before the Commission, an award was made of $5,032 per acre, which award was subsequently confirmed by a Justice of the Supreme Court. At; no time was I a witness before that Commission, nor was yappraisal to the Controller ever submitted to i O'Malley Borrowed from Grere. Mr. O'Malley corroborated state-1 ments made in The Eagle yesterday by Hr. Greve regarding the reports that Greve had "carried" him on a $10,000 stock deal and that he had at one time borrowed $600 from Greve.

Greve had not "carried" him, O'Malley asserted, but had simply acted with him in a partnership arrangement in purchasing stock toward which O'Malley advanced $10,000 of his own money. He did borrow $500 from Greve, as a temporary accom modation for about twelve days, he said. Special Sessions Justice Clarence Edwards has also taken exception to the versions of testimony given out by Messrs. Black and Kilroe. Justice Edwards, who was a member of the Seaside Park condemnation commission, denied that he had ever told Assistant Corporation Counsel John P.

McNamara that the city had been in the Seaside Park deal, that he (Edwards) "had done the best he could." "I never made the remark so attributed to me nor any other remark of the same purport," said Justice Edwards. Van Emburgh Atterbury, stock brokers of Manhattan, wore directed by District Attorney Edward Swann, investigating the land sales to the city, to produce at his office on Monday, their books or other data wiich will show the transaction had betweei. O'Malley and Greve over the purchase or sales of stocks. In addition to the above District Attorney Swann has issued subpoenas for the production before tho Grand Jury of the check account of Wlllian. H.

Flatbush Branch1, was likewise directed by subpoena to produce the personal account of William M. Greve during the same period. Assistant District Attorney Kilroe said yesterday that Frank Bailey of the Title Guarantee and Trust was one of the indorsers of O'Malley for his position in the finance department.

FOND OF UTTERING OLD SAWS Since John F. Hylan, $1.50. a shock of red hair and a Brim determination landed in Brooklyn simultaneously, ome twenty-nine yean ago, the Democratic candidate for Mayor hag blazed his way to that nomination over a trail more lurid arid picturesque than any novelist could Invent. The trail does not go through the wilderness, but Is confined strictly to Brooklyn. It was here that Hylan worked and rose, and it was to Brooklyn's history that he added a few of Its most bizarre pictures.

"Police Magistrate Hylan furnished some of the borough's diversions, and County Judge Hylan supplied a few i more, and this quaint character, after he had injected his views on civic affairs into the columns of the newspapers, loudly proclaimed that New York should have "a hard-headed business man for Mayor, ns too many lawyers were in public office." and then calmly proceeded to anchor the nomination and will doubtless fiang his nominating certificate alongside of his sheepskin. A Cznr.MngiMtntte. As a police magistrate Hvmn made an earnest effort to "Out-Nio" Nicholas, who was Emperor or all the Hus-slas until "the people" gave him the "gate." He handed out his famous "women-talk-too-much" decision, started a war of extermination against newspaper reporters, got worsted in that, subpoenaed a clergymun who had criticised him, and dismissed so many excise cases that the police brought before him that the Pago Legislative Committee got him on the grill and Mayor Gaynor began an investigation. As a County Judge he became famous as the result of several word battles with District Attorney Cropsey. tried to get the B.

R. T. indicted by the Grand Jury, opined that telephone tapping was sinful, kept up his warfare against the B. R. T.

and the Public Service Commission through the civic organizations. launched a few attacks on the city government, and laid tracks toward the Supreme Court bench. Throughout these doings John F. Hylan has remained "a man of the people," ns he was in the days when ho worked for the railroad now called the B. R.

T. ns a track layer. Although he "ascended" the County Court bench, as the saying goes, the borough's select clubs did not see him mingle with other jurists. He was a more familiar figure in the humble district clubs and Board of' Trade meeting rooms at luncheon time and in the downtown "bcanaries," where greeted those old friends who had not risen to such eminence. After he had assiduously hammered the street railroad eompany for various reasons, and had subpoenaed the Rev.

John Lewis Clark to explain why he had criticised his actions as a police magistrate, a family named Voe-gel aired their domestic squabbles in his court, and he got 'in the way of the real spotlight by making this observation: "Women talk too much. No man can out-talk a woman. Half the troubles of this world are the result of women talking too much. They begin the instant they are out of bed and are still going like magpies when they return to the roost at night." The War on Reporters. Next 'came the war against reporters, who were responsible for getting such views into the newspapers and before the public.

They were ousted from his court, threatened with jail and a few other things, but in the end the magistrate subsided, and when the echo of his denunciation died away the reporters were on fhe job, as usual. A blind boy came before the magistrate in one case, and some one spread stories which prompted the Rev. John Lewis Clark to make some comment from the pulpit about the case. In a jiffy the clergyman was handed a subpoena. He didn't land in jail, but the dignity of the court was re-established with the observation from the bench: "There is too much criticism going around." In 1910 Magistrate Hylan dismissed a number of excise cases which the police had brought to his court.

Home-one brought the matter before Mayor Gaynor, who rote a letter to Police Commissioner Baker, asking him to lay the facts before him. linker endeavored to get the court records of the examinations in those but Magistrate Hylan refused to furnish them. Hubsequently somebody filed charges against him with the Board of Magistrates. The charges were vague and nebulous. After an Investigation the board exonerated Magistrate Hylan.

That same year he tried hard to land a Democratic nomination for the Supreme Court Bench, and also the year after. In 1912 he became head of the Allied Boards of Trade, and declared war on the Public Service Commission, with a demand that the Commission be ousted from office. The locomotive engineers organization, of which Judge Hylan is still a member, came out with resolutions urging his appointment as Public Service Commissioner. In 19in. while making an address before the Gleninnre Avenue Presby.

terlan Church congregation, Magistrate Hylan discussed the "gang'1 peril and said it was due to the leniency of mothers toward their sons. "Fathers should use the eat-o'-nine-tails more often," he told the church members. "It's mighty g-jod fur the boy. I used Almost simultaneously the Judge banded down 'statements containing vitriolic attacks on "the Mitchel ad-1 ministration. He complained about the tapping of telephony wires in the lamous Kingsuury-otcnKiss-f arren- Potter mixnp, flayed some assessments levied by city officials and announced that the administration's pay-as-you-go policy "really means the taxpayer pays and the money goes." And then the voters were bombarded with pamphlets In which the Judge, in red-hot and picturesque language, assails the Mitchel administration and observes: "We have had enough rule under an invisible political oligarchy of efficiency engineers and professional uplifters.

One of their pet theories is that a grown man can live on 25 cents a day. Those who have heard the Judge speak and who have read his writings arp awaiting his campaign with much interest, wondering what picturesque thunderbolts of oratory or literature he will spread over! the city he seeks to head. 6ALLEGEDBURGLARSCAUGHT Burglars broke into the hotel" of William Henncssy at 3227 Surf avenue Friday night and made way with much of the stock of whiskey, wines and cigars.

MEN IX FIXE CONDITIOX. Camp Life at Sheepshead Bay IVoves Popular With Brooklyn's Fighting Regiment. Bronzed fro mthelr outdoor life, thin the waist and thick at the shoulders and In every other respect presenting a fine physical appearance, the men of the Fourteenth Infantry, quartered at Camp Harkness, Sheepshead Bay, stand ready for -the order which will send them to France to tfght. The Fighting Fourteenth, as the regiment is popularly known, needs additional men to fill the ranks of the quota It has furnished the 165th in training at Mineola for immediate foreign service. About eight recruits a day are being sent from the armory and the Regular Army posts to each company to complete the 'regimental strength.

During the week the regimental band has been provided with new instruments. The combined regimental band and field music now numbers eighty pieces. The Y. M. C.

A. tent is well patronized. Here all privileges are extended to the soldiers. Additional equipment and motor trucks arrjvvd at the camp last week. That the soldiers can, at all times, be in close touch with home and their friends, a number of telephone booths have been installed.

The men look forward with pleasure to the completion of an arena where bouts will be a daily feature of camp life. Everyone of the twelve companies has representatives to compete in the series of matches to determine the regimental titles. For men who have never been in-camp before, the outfit, according to tho officers, has taken hold of the work in great style. Only 25 per. cent, of the men saw service on the border.

Captain-Adjutant Bostick, as well as other Officers, are pleTased with the fine showing the regiment made in the send-off parade in Manhattan on Thursday. Clomp Has Record for Sanitation. The inspection yesterday showed that the camp has a record for sanitation. The company streets are kept spotlessly clean as a point of pride among the men themselves. A regimental canteen has been established.

The heavy storms of the past week not dampened the ardor of the soldiers one bit. The proficient manner in which they handled their tents during the rain was pronounced excellent by the officers. Not one tent was blown down during the storms. The camp site was declared ideal by Captain Holbrook of Company who was formerly of the First Cavalry. Th sandy soil soaked up the water quickly and no harmful results followed the rain.

Though there Is a general prevailing opinion that the regiment will move within a few weeks. Lieutenant Nelson of Company has a different view. He believes that the order to move will not come for nine months. To decide the issue a bet of a dinner has been wagered between the lieutenant and Captain Holbrook. With the exception of Saturday afternoons and Sundays, the week is taken up with drills, trench digging and bayonet exercises, which have been adopted after the style in vogue on European battlefields.

The Fighting Fourteenth has a great variety of dogs and cats as mascots. Topping them all is Diana, a French bull, who has been acclaimed the mistress of the camp. Diana is owned by Captain Philip Sayles of Company B. Diana is the only thing In camp, outside of a soldier, that acts like a sentry. Along with her good qualities, Diana has an evil penchant.

A sl.lrt or other wearing apparel, left on a line to dry, catches the eye of the bull pup and away she goes with it. Rewards aire plentiful for the things Diana hag stolen. Jake Piatt, cook In Company and Walter Robinson, cook's helper, are particularly sore at Diana. Diana has a habit of stealing into the mess tent of Company and purloining a chunk of beef. As a result the men of are fed smaller portions and their complaints are directed to those in charge of the cook shack.

The enemy can no longer boast of having gained a yard of ground. In vain the enemy exasperated attempted by mad thrusts to reconquer what he had lost. Tlie attacks were crushed by artillery and hand grenades.

TO WEAR CLOGS IN SOUTH OF ENGLAND Wooden Soled Shoes Likely to Replace Leather Ones for Kiddies. ARE USED NOW IS NORTH. South May Adopt Them if War Continues Much i Longer. In these more or less days of topsy turvydom it is quite within the bounds of possibility that before long the clamp, clamp, clamp of the clogs on the pavements may be as familiar in the south of 'England as It Is in the i north.

Already it is stated that the army is using up so much leather that there is a serious shortage fr civilian footwear. Some months ago the Eastbourne Board of Guardians recommended people to buy and wear does, more esoeciwllv for bovs and t. In 1-111 nvprdiin cniith pntmtrv household the noise of clogs would be a decided novelty not to say nuisaPce but, of course, the industrial north large numbers of people have always been devoted to clogs for everyday wear. Particularly is thiai the case In Yorkshire and Lancashire and in the southwest of Scotland. Clogs are also worn largely by factory workers and servants in certain parts I of France, Holland and Germany.

Although so many thousands of; people are wearing clogs today, near- ly the whole of the clog trade is de-i Dendent on local doggers. sut tne: trade of the future in most branches of industry is likely to develop more' and more into large combines. In deed, the Drocess is going on at tho present motaent both in England and Germany in readiness for tho coming trade war. The whole object will be to combine the financial Interests together, which will have great infiu-, er.ee in both buying and selling. In making the supply fit in with the demand, and specializing and concentrating wherever possible.

All these things will have to be faced In the clog trade, and, therefore, it behoves, doggers to put thctr houses in order and be ready to look after the lnter-i ests of the working class. 1 Clogs have always been very much cheaper than though, like everything else that has leather in its composition, they have risen consld- erably Jn price since the war began.1 There is no comparison between cheap boots for children and a pair of good, sound clogs. The former are invariably down at heel, the uppers slack and badly fitting and the sole merely hanging on to the uppers by threads. Hundreds of children evary winter contract colds, coughs, asthma, bronchitis and all kinds of mlnoij all ments simply through being badW shod. Very often, I am afraid, it is1 the silly pride of the mothers which forbids them to let their children wear clogs.

Clogs are too much like fae-i tory workers or colliers, I heard one of these mothers say one day. Of course the clogs make more noise than boots, but one soon gets accustomed to tho clatter of clogs on floors and pavements. In London, however, and othor south country towns, clogs will take some getting used to, but with a little perseverance and a little overcoming of prejudice there is' no reason why clpgs should not become as popular as boots, at least among children and growing boys and girls, Prlscilla E.
