GRAVE SITUATION
CAUSED BY REPLY
Of king NICOLAS
AUSTRIA INSISTS ON DECISION
SCUtari Must Remain Part Of
Albania

London, March 81. king Nicholas
of Montenegro today replied to tho
peremptory demands made by Aus
tria, in connection with the Montene-
grin bombardment of Scutari, Al
though his note is conciliatory in tone
the king refuses most of Austria's de.
mand. He says he has ordered that
the bombardment be directed only
against the forts, and that the rest 81
the city shall not be shelled.
King Nicholas refuses, however, 10
allow the non-combatants to leave the
city and also rejects the proposal for
the appointment of commission to
investigate the death of the Austrian
priest, Pale, who is said to have been
killed by the Montenegrins because lie
refused to renounce his faith.

Preparing Ultimatum.

Vienna, Austria, March 21-The
Austro- Hungarian government is pre-,
pairing an ultimatum to Montenegro,
according to an unofficial statement
today. The ultimatum was decided
upon, it is said, owing to the unsat-
isfactory nature of the reply to the
Austrian remonstrances regarding
Scutari.
The Montenegrin reply is consider
ed here as creating serious situa-
ton. A lively exchange of views is
proceeding between the Austro-Hun-
garian and the Italian foreign Offices
in regard TO possible joint action By
the two powers.
Austria will insist on enforcing the
decision of the European powers that
Scutari shall remain an integral part
of the future autonomous state of AL
bania.
1t is not known what action is to
be taken by the division of the Aus
trian feet which recently left for
the Montenegrin and Albanian coasts
although they are officially declared
to be proceeding there ito carry out
maneuvers."

ABOUT 100 INDIANS
RESIDE in GEORGIA
Commissioner Stanley Makes
Investigation

Atlanta, Ca, March Commission
er of Commerce and Labor Hal. Stan
ley, stirred by the plaintive plea Of
Secretary Harry Ulm for Indians
enough to send to the last grand coua-
eli in Denver in 1915, has made an in
vestigatiom and submitted the results
to Mr.. Ulm, much to his relief and joy.
Commissioner Stanley says there are
about 100 Indians (using the word III
as strictest and original application
in Georgia at this time. Berrien coun-
ty has 10, Bulloch 10, Decatur /, Full
ton 10, Jackson II, Miller II, Quit
man 12; balance scattered about the
state at various points.
Commissioner Stanley notes further
that the Indian population is increas-
iuE at a very gratifying rate in this
state. Ten years ago the census show
ed only nineteen in Georgia.
Mr.. Ulm was so rejoiced over this in,
formation that he indited the follow
ing letter to Commissioner Stanley:
MY Dear Mr. Stanley: l thank you
very much for your letter and the in
formation contained therein If the
data does not serve Jim Nevin, Harlee
Rrarch and John Reese, who, as far
fIom home and wives as Denver, could
certainly be wild enough, and 1 am
sure would whoop them up and put on
paiut with credit to the Georgia
BIZ eed"

and is busy practicing scalping the
foam If suds, while Branch is bur-
nishing his nose in preparation. Reese

THREE METHODIST COLLEGES
IN GEORGIA ARE TO UNITE

Macon, Ga, March 21.-The coal;-
ton of Wesleyan Female college, Of
Macon, Andrew Female college( of
Cuthbert and LAGRANGE Female col
lege, of LAGRANGE, as reported in a
Macon newspaper two months ago was
the boards of trustees of the two for
mer and the executive board of the
latter. The trustees of the three in
situations met in an all-day session
in Macon yesterday and only the for
NAL confirmation of the Methodist con-
ferences is necessary before the
change is effective. Already a ma
jority of the preachers are said to
have given expressions favorable to
the change, which means that the
work of merging the three Methodist
institutions can begin at once.
Resolutions were unanimously
adopted yesterday by the boards of
trustees of the Wesleyan college and
Andrew college indorsing the plan and
urging that such steps be taken as
necessary to effect the change. The
executive board of LAGRANGE likewise
adopted similar resolutions and COM
mittees will be named to take the nee
essary steps to merge the colleges.
While the change cannot be officially
effective until confirmed by the north
and south Georgia Methodist confer
ences, work will begin this spring on
correlating the course of study of the
three institutions to become effectiy e
at the opening next fell. The confer
ences hold their annual sessions in

the time in which particular emphasis
is laid in preaching upon the substi-
tutionary obedience and sufferings of
our Divine Redeemer, and when In
thought, we follow him from the temp
tation In the wilderness to the trium-
plant issue of the resurrection morn
ing.
In harmony with this, our present
sermon deals with one OF the tender
est events of social nature occurring
in the last week of his earthly life.
Then Jesus six days before the
passover came to Bethany" Then he
did It. II you would understand the
significance of the word then" you
must go back to the previous chapter,
which tells us that all the people
were gathering to Jerusalem for the
passover, and all animated more or
less by the thought as to whether he
would come to the feast, for the chief
priests and pharisees had given a
commandment that II any man knew
where he were, he should show 1t,
that they might take him. Then 1t
was that he came. Before this on
different occasions he had hidden him
self from his enemies, not through
cowardice or fear, but because his
hour had not yet come he was not
yet ready to be offered. the Scripture
had not yet been fulfilled. Now, how
ever the crisis Is approaching. and
he advances consciously to met his
cruel death. 'If ever there were a
calm, voluntary, deliberate walking
up to death, it was this last visit of
Jesus into Judea."
Sympathy With Jesus.
But why is it that he seeks out this
little village two miles from Jerusa-
lem, and spends so much of his inter-
vening time there? Perhaps the fol-
lowing words supply the reason, since
we read that Lazarus was there,
whom he had raised from the dead.
Jesus loved Lazarus and his house
hold, and, doubtless, like ourselves.
he liked to be as much as possible
with those he loved If we knew we
were soon to die. with whom would
we like to pass the closing moments
offour life. If not with those who I'M
derstood US best and who sympa-
thized with us the most? Jesus. re-
member, was a man. Not merely a
man, but yet mana perfect man.
And 1t Is just such touches of his
humanity that bring him so near to
us, and solace US with the thought
that in him we have an high priest
who can be touched with feeling OF
our infirmities
But what about our sympathy for
Jesus, now that we are sure of his
sympathy for us? Does he ever find
Bethany in our homes and hearts?
He is still in some sense exposed to
the persecution of his enemies In the
earth, for the Kingdoms of this world
have not yet become the kingdoms OF
our God and OF his Christ An apos-
tie speaks OF some who cruelty our
Lord afresh, and put him to an open
shame" II this be so, then he still
loks for quiet haven. and a minis
tration of love from those whom he
hath qufckened when they were dead
in trespasses and sins. Is 1t 80 with
US?
