the intelligence and progressiveness
Of the business and professional men
of Manchester.
The project met with most favor
able reception all along the line and

Convenient Insanity.

Some expert who may have been
looking at himself in the glass has sol
EMMY declared that almost everybody
you meet is insane in one way or an
other. The average man would be
loath to believe that, although he would
have to admit that almost everybody he
meets thinks he can sing. AS to him
self, he would resent 1t and claim that
he was as sane as any of the rest.
It IS only when some very wealthy
man has committed a great crime and
the lawyers think it would be a shame
to let him be punished before he has
had a chance to spend his money that
the experts come to the front with a
drayload of big words warranted to
convince the jury that the man and
all his relations are clear off mentally.
1t is not very fattering to a man to
hear positive proof that almost con-
vinces himself that he is insane, but
If he will think real hard he can usual
ly call to mind some things that are
even less pleasant.

THE POSTWAR.


The postman plods along the street.
Moves leisurely around his beat.
Looks UP the right address with care
And leaves q letter here and there;
Then with a whistle or q song
He grabs his bag and jogs along.
Swings on and disappears from view.
And nothing has ne left for YOU.
There's Mrs. Jones across the way,
Who gets a letter every day;
Some friend Industrious must write
A long epistle every night.
And II she misses once. Wen say,
She gets a paper anyway.
While you are lucky IL one trip
You draw an advertising slip.
It's not but you have friends and beau.
Who ought 10 write you. goodness
knows!
Your cousin Mary. in the east,
Has owed you one a month at least.
And there are several men who said
They'd write. Can they have all drop
ped dead?
Some one with something nice to say
Should make the postman earn his pay.
Hope springs eternal. so they say;
he may have one fer you next day,
But it is hard TO see him fly
Along the street and pass you by;
OF your location give no heed.
AS though you couldn't write and read.
But cheer up; had he left you one,
Perhaps it might have been a dun.

provoked and Planned,

From this point the correspondent
was obliged to turn back, shooting hav-
ing recommended. He was made pris-
oner by soldiers, but shortly after
wards released by the governors order.
Refugees state that Governor Engelke
was taken sick a week ago, and that
control of affairs in Siedlce then passed
into the hands of Colonel Tuchanows-
ki, an anti-Semite. The people at once
began to desert the town, apprehend-
ing an attack upon the Jews. 1t is as
serted that paid provocative agents so
contrived matters that on Saturday the
soldiers began shooting in the streets
and bombarded houses, the occupants
being forced to flee. To quicken the
flames soldiers threw oil upon burning
houses. An army officer stumbling up
on a wounded Jew remorseiy killed
him. 1t is related that soldiers killed
the Jewish proprietor of fruit store,
put his body under a table and ate his
provisions as they We're spread upon
the table.
Another refugee states that Satur-
day night the doctors at the Jewish
hospital in Siedlce lighted the gas in
that institution prepatory to operating
upon the wounded who had been
brought in, who numbered seventy,
when without warning the soldiers in
the street opened fire upon the hos
pital, killing two of the inmates AS a
man was taking his wife and newly
born child to hospital they were fired
upon by soldiers and wife and child
were killed.
4 Jew ventured out of his house to
bring some water for his thirsting lit
tie ones. AS often as he reached the
door with pail of water soldiers COM
PEELED him TO empty the pail upon the
ground. This was done eleven times
The twelfth time the father appeared
with water for his children the officer
Of the guard washed his boots in the
pail and made the children drink the
fouled water.
In many cases the soldiers spared
the lives Of Jews upon the payment of
S25. BY actual count 40 eorpses were
picked up in the streets, and it is stated
that more bodies are hidden in cellars.
Only one Christian is known to have
been killed and so far as can be learned
nc soldier was killed.
