The German Emperor's War
like Spirit Is Once More
Asserting Itself
The Kaiser Gives Up His Hunt
ing Expedition for an In
spection Tour
An International Red Cross
Exhibited to Be Held
in Leipsic

PARIS, April 13-French naval authori-
ties express themselves as much amused
at the kaiser's proposition that in the
next war the German fleet could destroy
the enemy at one stroke. The French are
confident of being able to maintain their
maritime superiority to the Germans,
whatever may be the case on land, and a
leading admiral is credited with the re-
mark that very few of Germany's vessels
would survivea battle, that it would be
another Lissa and more disastrous to
Germany than that battle was to Italy.
In other quarters the kaisers remarks are
accepted as Indicating set purpose to
provoke a conflict with France and Rus
sia, and at no distant date.
The manufacture of arms in France for
the Russian forces is steadily going on,
and the army will soon be completely
equipped with the most modern weapons OF
destruction. II is said that the cars
qualification with the prOmptitude and
perfection of the French manufacture OF
repeating rifles for the Russian army was
one of his moiives for decorating PreSi-
dent CarnOt with the orderOf st Andrew
BERLIN, April l3 The report that the
kaiser has given up his hunting program
which had been fully determined upOI
and places and dates arranged, in orde
| to visit the fortreSscs OF AlSace Lorraine
| is not regarded as sign OF peace. IL /
said the kaiser desires to inspect for him
self the condition of the German frontIe
defenses in the direction of France, an
that later he will make similar tour O
the Russian frontier. There Is no dis
guising the fact that the almost universe
Impression prevails in Germany that wa
is near at hand, and no official aSsuranc
can remove the impression.
BERLIN, April 13-Appropriate to tn
war spirit Of the times is the propositlo
to hold in Leipsic an international Re
Cross exhibition. 1t will include, anon
other things, all appliances for cookin
food for the armies in the field. The be-
manner of supplying troops with foo,
both in peace and war, is 10 be show
and special attention will be given to IL

EPISCOPAL SERVICES
Rev. Applegate Makes Seve raj Requests
of His Parishioners

Rev. l.. W. Apologize, on Sunday
morning. after cOngratulating his congre-
CATION ON the very efficient manner In
which they were conducting their various
Christian activities, took occasion to
urge them to second his efforts In two
directions, which he considered very i'm
portant to the spiritual influence OF the
parish. The Sunday evening service has
not been well attended, and he asked
them to make it as hearty as the morning
service And the attendance on Sunday
evening showed good results. He also re-
quested the members of the congregation
not TO make or accept engagements Tor
Wednesday evenings Of each week, but
rather to consider that evening as belong
ing to the parish, to attend such services
as may be appointed. Learning after the
service, that many had accepted an invi-
| tation for this week Wednesday evening,
MIR. Applcgate announced at the evening
service that hc should not make any APP
pointmcnt for this week, and that he had
made the suggestion simply as guide Tor
the future. With the hearty cO-opera-
ton Of his people, which j. being mani
| tested already in many ways, Mr.. Apple
gate hopes to make the spiritual interests
of this parish in no way second TO the
temporal interests which are being 50
enthusiastically carried forward by the
various committees and societies.

A GREAT DISCOVERY.
Petroleum in Great Quantities Found in
Virginia.

PLATrsvu.LE, Va, April l3.-Thcre is
great excitement in the lower end Of
Schuylkil comfy over the discovery of
petroleum in supposed immense quanti-
ties, on farms in the neighbOrhood Of Frei-
densburg, four miles west Of Schuylkill
Haven. A number Of experts from the
Brad ford oil fields and elsewhere, after a
careful examination OF the formation OF
the ground, express the opinion that large
quantities Of oil and perhaps gas exist un-
der the surface at depth OF from 700 TO
1900 feet. Spectators have already gath
cred on the scene and are endeavOring tC
secure leases from the owners. The farm
ers in the vicinity who believe their own
land contains oil and gas, have organized
a stock company and will at once bore
wells through the underlying strata tC
demonstrate the truth OF the claims.
