In an attack upon Kaiser Wilhelmns
expressions Of German sympathy for
Russia Herr Bebel, the socialist lead
or in the Reichstag made this signf-
.dcant observation that "The chief
cause Of the dislike Of Germany was
her growing military equipment on
land and on sea. Germany had been
moving fast in the International race
Of military and naval armament since
1895. The civilized nations had grown
heartily tired Of this eternal struggle
and rivalry" In sentiment, although
not in epigramatic power. the words
Herr Bebel recall the famous saying
Of Bismark that every peasant in Eu-
rope carries an armed man on his
back.
UnQuestionably the military estab-
lishment of Germany like that of all
the civilized world, is becoming far
too costly. Ostensibly created to pre-
serve peace, it is, without a question,
provocative Of war. The very possess
Ion Of the power incites to its use.
Military spirit spreads its, proportion
10 the. number Of persons devoted to
military pursuits. Generals and admit
rails are anxious to win new laurels
rather than to rust away in time Of
peace; and It ;is only human that the
officers of lesser rank shall pray for
bloody war in order to enhance their
own opportunity for fame and quick
promotion. We have heard brave SOL
dier Of this country reverentlyl thank
God for the American-Spanish conflict
because it gave to him the chance
and the advancement for which he
had waited twenty years. He was not
conscious that it seemed like blasphe-
my. to praise God. for the slaughter
for the fatalities to superior officers
by which he rose, in rank and had the
opening to win his fame.
: It is q piteous thing that so much Of
the energy Of civilization should be
given to make preparation for war. II
one half Of the time, the money, the
ingenuity which are expended upon
equiping fleets and armies were given
i. to supply the wants of deserving hui

You keep full and accurate account al
home, and when the 18th Of July comes
we'll hold little meeting and announce
who has won the prize Of a four years
course at one OF the best colleges in the
world.
You needn't feel ashamed to ask 70.
subscriptions to "Polly Pry." The "Polly
Pry" isn't a little, timid, struggling
weekly paper any more, but it is as
strong as the American sentiment that
stands behind it, and as free and as in
dependent as the American men and wo-
men who are helping US to make such a
paper out here in our splendid state.
We are talking great deal about
Americans and the American spirit these
days. We want to help educate few
young Americans ourselves, and to help
educate them right. We want to help
them to learn, not only the fiue lessons
Of application which the colleges teach.
but the finest and greatest lesson of all
the lesson of an honest pride 10 hon
est work; the lesson Of the Joy of earn.
ing things.
1t was not the salt pork and the pota-
toes three times a day for three weeks
that made the millionaire's dull eyes
sparkle with joyous life-it was the fact
that he had earned it himself. Earn that
college course, boys and girls. 1t wont
be easy to earn it.
This thing means work-hard work
and quick work. The competition opens
today and closes July 18th, and no boy
nor girl may enter as competitor after
the 18th of May. Whoever tries for this
reward will have to compete with the
brightest and bravest boys and the clev-
crest and the most ambitious girls in
this whole splendid stste-but what's
the use fighting battle if there is no
fight in it?
That's what it is, for the fun OF a race
isn't all in the goal; good lively part OF
it is in the running. Start today. Start
this very hour; remember the conditions

with petroleum to q depth of several
feet, then covered with wood and
straw. In the course Of an attack upon
the fort the Japanese storming party
sank into the morass, which the Rus
slams fired with an electric fuse. The
fierce confagration lasted all night and

nese advanced in small detachments,
protected by large wooden shields. and
engaged in a savage bayonet fight.
The Japanese, the report continues,

Sheldon, African explorer and author,
who has Just returned from tour
of the Congo Free State, says that her
assertion that she had witnessed more
atrocities in London streets than she
had seen in the Congo should apply to
the rubber country as well as to the
rest of the state. She Travelled, she
says, in every part Of the country.
King Leopold having accorded her
complete freedom and she was con-
WINGED that the allegations of malad-
ministration were groundless and that
it was quite false to say that King
Leopold had sanctioned cruelty. Wher-
ever she went, she says, she found the
natives treated with kindness and con-
sideration, whilst the improvements In
the condition of the land and Its in
habitants were almost incredible.
Mrs. Sheldon endured great hardships
in travelling and was often up to her

was lying face downward across a log.
An attempt to destroy the features and
prevent Identification by burning had

a few hair pins and an empty hottie
that had contained gasoline, but every

From the appearance of the body

The body is that of girl about Is
years OF age, feet 2 inches In height
and weighing about 125 pounds. It
bears every indication Of refinement.
The fingers have signs Of rings having
been worn, but no trace OF jewelry
could be found upon the hill. The
head, shoulders and upper portions Of
the breast were badly burned, but the
hair had been coiled so tightly that 1t
was only partially destroyed. That
which is left is Of light brown color
and would indicate that the deceased
was a blonde. The left upper cuspid
tooth, being the third from the CEN

every indication that the young woman
died Of poison, the hands being

Judge Wing, at Toledo, issued an Or
der to the effect that no visitors are
to be permitted to see Mrs. Cassie l..

from United States Marshal Chandler.
The order is designed to prevent Beck
with, OF the Oberlin bank, from see

nurse will be denied permission to see
her except on the written order OF
United States Marshal Chandler. An
order was received at the Jail by Sher-
liz Barry directing him to deny all
people the privilege Of seeing her and
he at once ordered that the nurse,
Freda Swanstrom, who was then In
the Jail with Mrs. Chadwick, be or
dered to leave. This action was In
direct opposition to an order Of United
States Marshal Chandler, issued yes
terday, in which he directed that Emil
Hoover, the son of Mrs. Chadwick,
and the nurse should be admitted at
any time to see Mrs. Chadwick. Sher-
III Barry declared that no visitors
