GIRL THAT LOVED A SOLDIER
Pathetic Romance Comes to End
With Removal Of Young Wom-
an to Asylum.

The pathetic romance OF "a lass that
loved a soldier" concluded the other
day by the removal of Magdalene Her
mann OF Gronau, Saxony, to an asylum
for the mentally diseased. says a Ber-
lin correspondent OF the London News
Twenty years ago during the imperial
maneuvers a smart artillery regiment
was quartered in Gronau. AS is Gus
tomary during the mansuver billet
ings, a sergeant began to flirt with
Magdalene and promised her marriage.
The promise was not seriously intend
ed. but poor Magdalene took It all in
earnest. and from that day to this
she has never ceased to meet trains
by night or day coming from the ser
geants garrison town
Some years ago. as her beloved
Sergeant Albert had still not arrived,
Magdalene jumped to the conclusion
that the war office opposed the we'd
ding and she has since bombarded the
military authorities with petitions for
permission to marry the sergeant. Aft
er time the authorities ceased to an
swer her letters. Magdalene there
upon concluded that the post Office
was now suppressing them, and ever
since has walked ten miles daily to
post her letters in neighboring town.

ENGLISH MONEY DOWN SOUTH
Being Invested to Large Extent In
Railroad and Industrial
Enterprises.

For several years prior to the Bar
ing failure English capital was being
invested to a very large extent In
southern railroad and industrial enter.
prises. At the time OF the Barring col.
lapse many negotiations were under
way in England, with good prospects
OF success, for othel large investments
in the purchase Of mineral and timber
properties. in the building Of railroads
and in various undertakings looking to
broad development of southern re-
sources
Following that failure, and the COL
lapse Of business and financial inter
ests in this country with the panic OF
1893 and the free silver agitation of
the next few years. English capital
sought other channels for investment
This condition has existed for nearly
twenty years, but now there is a
marked revival of interest on the part
OF English capital In southern invest
ments.
Within the last few months English
cotton manufacturers have put SO, 3,000,-
600 into the purchase of cotton lands
In Mississippi and $1,000, 900 into a
great irrigation enterprise in Texas.
Negotiations are now under way in
England for the financing OF some
large water power enterprises and a
number of other undertakings, the
carrying out OF which would prove OF
very great value to the south.

months before l undertook the part,
trying to persuade me to take some
thing.

thing in that second act he said, so
why not make It real medicine and

voice this joyousness in the flowers
that are seen everywhere. There is
a GOODNESS in the church service that
is not frightened by at least lily or
two Today; it seems to poorly express
the spirit of the Eastertide.
It is good for US to have one day
in tho year that Is all Joy. 1t is no
time for yielding to gloom or de-
preston. Life has SO much of shad-
ow that the road would be darkened
did we never come out into the full
sunshine. We want life and light
and color around us; therefore we
put the blossoms of spring in our win
dows and wear them as we 60 to and
fro.
Other festal days have their tenn
poral distractions. Easter makes its
strongest appeal to the soul side of
us. Coming as it does on the first day
of the week, when the busy world is
resting, there is time to think of the
higher side of life, to ponder on the
deeper meaning of things that be-
What means this joyousness of the
season that is felt by all, If unexprcss-
ed? Is it not reviving hope; hope
to brighten the dreariest, most dispir-
tied man or woman?
Did not man believe in a hereafter,
q future when wrongs will be right
ed and sorrows turn to JOY, the world
would have stopped trying long ago.
Pine Bluff daily graphic. (Pine Bluff, Ark.) 1893-1942, 1911-04-16

Even with all our faith that deaden.
in wait Tor us at every obstacle in the
road. L1d We not believe in what lies
on the otheG side, though unseen, we
would turn back like Pliable from our
miry Slough Of Despond.
Take away temporal hope from a
man, from a nation-What follows?
For the man cement, inertia,
despair, then uselessness; for the ma
ton disintegration. How much farth-
er reaching in it's effects for i'll is a
hopelessness that this rough earthly
path leads to eternal life
Are we discouraged today? Have
the worries of the money-troubled
winter hit us hard? Have we trials
the more bitter that they must be
hidden? Are we bowed under
weight of illness, Of morbid dread Of
the future, that will not lift?
Let the joyous message of the Eas-
terrible bring healing. Hope is being
voiced on every side today, in the
swelling notes of the organ, in . the
soaring voices of choir and chorister,
in the inspiring message that is pro-
claimed from every Christian pulpit
in the land. 1t but remains for US
to reach not for that hope and make
it our own, to loosen the sordid, de-
pressing earth cords that have US
tightly bound.
The joyousness of Easter. Alas, for.
the woman who cannot feel it; who
is not lifted out Of herself today.
What though the old gloom returns.
Is it not something to have stood on
the heights and sung aloud with the
Joy of living; to have seen the sun
glimpse of the radiance beyond? New
err again will the blackness be so
dense, for is there not the hope of
that joyous day when the sunlit
heights will be ours, to inspire US to
keep on climbing,
Let us not be content to keep the
seasons joy in our hearts. Real JOY
BUSINESS must find an outlet, in CHEEKY
greeting, in forgetfulness of old grud-
ges, in taking brightness into the
lives of those who may be shut out
from it. Wear your Easter flower,
typical of hope, be heartened by the
Easter message, but share both flower
and message with those whose need of
cheer may be greater far than yours

another Chances
A change Of greater moment in the
play itself is one ruling on the for
ward pass. Formerly, in the case of
an uncompleted forward pass, the PEN
atty was measured from the spot from
which the pass was made. That usual
ly meant a spot at least six or seven
yards back of the line of scrimmage.
The new rule says that the distance
shall be measured from the spot of
the preceding down instead Of the spot
from which the ball was passed. 1t
is easy to see then that the penalty
is lessened by about seven or eight
yards, which is by no means an unim-
portant fact to bear In mind when
considering the advisability of attempt
ing such a pass. The rest of the
changes are of less Importance, but
should be carefully read by coaches
and captains.
An important feature of the book is
the AIl-America selections by the edi-
tor, Walter Camp, and other leading
football authorities of the country
The work of the important teams dur
ing the season of 1910 is reviewed.
