BEST GUARANTY OF PEACE.
Prof. Meyer Pays Tribute to Ger
many's Great Army.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
BOSTON, Mass, October 16.-That If
the German emperor's hand had been
weaker in the recent trouble between
Austria and Servia all European nations
might have been engaged in a great war
was the significant remark of Prof. Ed
uard Meyer of the University of Berlin at
the meeting of the New England History
Teachers Association held in the hall of
Massachusetts Historical Society.
Prof Meyer had listened to q talk by
Prof. Henry Jones Ford of Princeton
University on "Militarism and the Peace
Movement" In telling of the extreme
views of the anti-miltarism advocates
of America, who would eliminate the ac-
counts of battles and heroic exploits from
the school books, he declared that he
knew of a man who even went to Nurem-
burg, the center of the toy industry OF
facturer to stop making toy soldiers
Prof. Meyer listened to these views
with alternate expressions of amusement
and establishment. Several times he
laughed heartily and conversed with Prof.
Ferguson of Harvard, who sat beside
him. and at other times he would lean
far forward and cover his face with his
hands. When he arose to speak he de-
clared that he was astounded to find that
the sentiment expressed by Prof. Ford
existed in America
Prof. Meyer. in referring to the trouble
between Austria and Servia, declared
that it was Germany's grea. army that
held back the European powers from a
general conflict. and he paid tribute to the
courage of the emperor. No he de-
clared, . great army is the best guar
anty of peace

One Cincinnati Man Pays Her 500
for Tiny Flag-$15,ooo Secured

Special DISPATCH to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
CINCINNATI. Ohio, October 16.-Thom-
as p. Egan, a wealthy Cincinnati business
man, paid 500 today to Mrs Nicholas
Longworth for a little bit of flag not
as large as womans handkerchief.
There was nothing especially valuable
about the flag, for it was made of very
ordinary cloth and had just a few words
written upon it. But what the flag stood
for was of the greatest value.
1t was only one of many thousands sold
here today for the campaign which is be-
ing made against tuberculosis, and which
brought the Anti-Tuberculosis League
something like $4,000.
Mrs. Longworth took her stand at 1o
o'clock in the Gibson House lobby. A
lot of introducing had to be gone through
with. and then the selling OF hags pc
who acted through jack Shuf. ana
who gave her crisp 500 bill for the
little emblem.

Then Mrs Longworth said she wanted
the second herself and emptied her purse
containing s1J-into the fund treasury
She is said to have taken in close to $1,000
in a half hour and made by far the great
est record of the day.
Representative Longworth stood by her
side and aided her III the olstIipu.ioii. "
F.gan. who bought the first flag, says ne
is going to have it framed and placed In
his library at home Representative
Longworth bought a flag for 500. but IN
asmuch as his wife was getting the
greatest attention, he went out into the
street and bought his from one or the
young society girls in an obscure place.
The officials of the league say they VII
have enough money to run their NarlouS
institutions a whole year, and the state.
ment is made tonight that at least S1o,9Oo
has gone into the fund through the. days

1t so happens that the rate of death
from tuberculosis in Cincinnati is one
nerson in every eight hours. The league
wants to cut this down to one every SIX

learns from persons In high author

the correspondent says, forthwith in.
formed the Paris and st. Petersburg
