F. w. Beckman. Of the department OF
Journalism Of Iowa State College, to-

of journalism.
"1'he news sense. the ability to SEQ

TT is the news sense which enables
the writer to see thru the mass OF non

rubbish to living facts. thru husks and
shells to the kernel of truth" continued
the speaker. 1T Is the news sense that
gives the writer understanding of and

with all It's faults. I still believe In
the new style as the most efficient style
of this modern day for presenting tn-

has been hammered out In the heat and
stress Of newspaper work to meet the
demands Of the millions for something
to compel their attention. interest them

mont In Public Address.
London. Nov. 2s.-The Thanksgiving
dinner OF tho American Society here
last night was noteworthy because OF
tho procurement OF the British gov
ernments endorsement Of the Monroe
doctrine by Viscount Haldane, Lord
High Chancellor.
Three hundred and nifty American
men and women with q large number
OF British guests. were present and
they cheered Lord Haldane's words
enthusiastically.
The lord high chancellor spoke on
the cordial welcome he had received
In tho United States as "a thinking
man and a moralist."
Speaking Of the Monroe Doctrine.
he said that the United States consid-
cred herself responsible for the lib
critics OF the small nations of that
hemisphere
He could see what was In the mind
Of the president Of that time-that
the responsibility rested with the
United States to secure good govern
ment and fair treatment for those
countries.
He interpreted President Wilson's
policy to mean that the United States
was ready to accept the responsibility
Of ensuring good terms herself in
those countries and to those who went
there and that the United States
should set up high ideals Of policy. OF
Justice and OF Righteousness.
Il am not sure that any one should
speculate upon tho Interpretation OF
that policy" he continued, "but have
thought myself at liberty to say what
have.
1T is true. indeed. that a high spirit
and a high aim have been brought
into the policy of the United States in
It's dealings with ancient countries
and 1t is because the president has
taken the attitude he has - step
which none can but admire what
ever. its consequences may be-that
I propose good health to Woodrow
Wilson. the man"

men, who had been on the river.
Hearing groans, they turned aside
from their path and by the light of
their torch made the find. At the
morgue the man was identified as
James Kilgallon, of Wilkes-Barre, Pa.
The crime was committed at a
tramp's camping place, half mile
east of the city limits, and three men
who were in the camp were arrested
by police, who hurried out by auto.
Since then five others have been ar

There were bloodstains on all of
the eight prisoners, and they all bore
marks of a fight. The deed was COM
mitted with jagged stone, about
twelve inches long and four to six
inches thick and wide. The stone is
covered with blood, and one of the
prisoners has cut hands which appear
to have been the result of handling

lhaneuvering of Austrian Troops Near

by Little Kingdom.
Cettinje, April THE little king
{ Gom of Montenegro has thrown down
the gauntlet to the six great powers
If Europe.
She declines to yield to the demand
If the powers to abandon her at
tempts to gain possession of Scutari,
and has officially announced that
there will be no departure from an at
titude which conforms to the necessi-
ties of the state of war existing be-
tween the allies and Turkey"
An international fleet, comprising
warships of Austria Hungary, LAZY,
France, Germany and Great Britain,
is now blockading the Montenegrin
port of Antivari. These include four
Austrian warships, the British cruis-
ers Yarmouth, Inf1exible and Glouces-
ter; the German cruiser Breslau, the
Italian cruiser Pisa and the French
cruiser Edgar Quinet. Russia is not
represented by warship, but has ac-
quiesced in the naval demonstration.
On Saturday the British admiral
sent the following message to the
Montenegrin premier, DR.. L. Toma-
movies:
81 have the honor to inform you
that the international fleet is assem-
bled in Montenegrin waters as a pro-
test against the non-fulf1llment of the
wishes of the great powers. I desire
to call your excellency's attention to
the presence of the fleet as proof
that the great powers are acting in
concert and request that their wishes
be fulfilled without further delay.
Please inform me Immediately that
your government is ready to carry out
the wishes of the great powers"
To this the Montenegrin premier re-
piled in a note expressing regret at
the presence of the fleet, which he
considered violation of the neutral
ity proclaimed by the powers at the
beginning of the war, and to the detri-
ment of Montenegro. The premier con-
tinued:
Despite the pressure which the
presence of the fleet implies, there will
be no departure from an attitude that
conforms to the necessities of the state
of war existing between the allies and
Turkey"
A brigade of Austrian troops from
Cattaro has been meneuvering near
the Montenegrin boundary. The custo-
mary notice has not been given the
Montenegrin government, and Aus
tria's action is considered unfriendly

Will Not Yield. Saws the kino,

Paris, April liking Nicholas, Of
Montenegro, is quoted in the Temps
as saying that he has learned with
sorrow that the cruiser Edgar Quinet
is representing France in the naval
demonstration on the Montenegrip
coast.
"It is a bitter irony" said the king,
''that the name of the illustrious
writer, Edgar Quinet, the upholder of
peoples struggling for independence
and unity, should be associated with
an expedition against the small but
valiant champion of Balkan independ-
ence. You may say that despite the
measures of coercion taken by Europe
against her, Montenegro will yield on
ly to violence. 1t remains for Europe
to add the ridicule of armed force to
her injustice"
