Soldiers Debt-Proof

Although Tommy Atkins is an hon.
oraDie person, and is not in the habit
or repudiating his just debts to civil
ans, still he is not compelled to dis
charge them IL they amount to less
than certain sum. This is because
oy British military law he cannot ba
sued for any debt or damages under
800 IN value. Accordingly, if Private
Atkins can persuade confiding trades
man or stock broker, or perhaps an ac-
commodating f1nancier, to give him
credit up to $145 there is no legal ma
cn1nery that will recover the money. II
cannot be stopped from his paw or de-.
quoted from his pension.
In order to protect civilians from
possible loss by giving tick" to SOL
o1ers, a system is in force of "crying
down credit" Whenever a regiment
arrives In a fresh station the COM
handing officer has to issue a public
to the effect that any,
oody who permits the troops to run up
Oils will do SO at his own risk.

PROSPECTIVE CHEER.
THE EDITOR,

Do you remember how you kicked
About the summer sun?
The wheels Of time have turned and
clicked.
And summer days are done
Does it not cheer you to reflect
That in a month or so
All fear OF warmth you may neglect
And you can shovel snow?
A sneeze will agitate your head
Your glass will bring to view
A face whose eyes are rather red
While nose and ears are blue.
From old time sorrows you'N be free,
And gayly you can go
And where the daisies used to be
Proceed to shovel snow.
What though a chilblain lies in wait?
What though with muscles numb
You clear pathway to the gate
Where visitors may come? -
Remember how you once reviled
The sky's too generous glow
Meath which the fragrant blossoms
smiled.
Rejoice and shovel snow!

C0SSACKS DEFEAT

mia, Persia, Tell of Days
of Serious Peril.

The board Of foreign missions Of
the Presbyterian Church made public
yesterday letters from missions at
Uramia. Persia. I'm which IL was stated
fighting between Cossacks and Kurds
had taken place there. The uprising
of the Kurds, which lasted several
days. was put down by Cossacks. One
of the letters says:
Outside Of the city gate ten galiows
have been prepared. | think one man
was hanged yesterday morning. Who
the ten men will be | don't know.
think many Moslems OF the city and
villages are suspected of having in
trigued with the Kurds.
ave fear The after effects OF the
trouble for US will be a greater dislike
Of MS,lems for all Christians. We are
told that the Russian policy will be to
hold Uramia, no matter what comes"
1.-THE fight which resulted in the ulti-
mate rout Of the Kurds," says another
letter, started at SER. where the Cos
sacks occupied the English mission
house. Their allies, the Syrians, oc-
cupied the house Of the American mis-
sion. The kurds surrounded the Amer
lean mission, in which, at the time
were only soldiers. and forced the
Syrians 20 the English mission, where
they joined the Russians and held our
against the enemy. Reinforcements OF
Cossacks finally arrived and the Kurds
were driven out and the Russians were
left in complete control of the sur
rounding country"

PLEAS FOR PUBLIC
LECTURES TO-DAY
Mayor Mitchell Will Receive Pro-
tests Against Cuts" Made
by the Aldermen.

MANY protests have been received by
Mayor Mitchell against the action OF the
Board of Aldermen in cutting $4,000
out OF the appropriation of the Board
of Education for public lectures. AT :
o'clock this afternoon the Mayor will
hold a public hearing. when he will re-
ceive protests against this and the
other cuts made by the aldermen.
II is thought likely that the Mayor,
who has the power TO veto any OF the
cuts of the aldermen and restore the
concentrations TO the budget, will put
back that for public lectures. The i'm
pression is that he will also restore the
money appropriated for the efficiency
staff Of Benjamin F. Welton, in the
Office of the Commissioner OF Accounts.
The cut in the salary Of Walter Lin
coin Sears, head Of the Municipal En-
plovment Bureau, from $4,000 10 $1,000
is also likely TO be disapproved.
Not only is the fact that the lecture
approDriation has been cut deplored IN

Bernard Mcdonald, a guard on the
train. testified that Costa used such
language in one Of the cars that women
passengers had to take seats in other
parts Of the train. When Mcdonald
asked him TO be quiet, he said, Costa
turned his abuse on the guard until
he was arrested at 93d ST.

said that Costa continu d his talk ali

stand and said that his conversation IN
the train was inspired by passenger
who advised him to hire a nall when
he hummed an operate arr Leonard
bore out his story. Magistrate Oorfi-
gan then imposed the fines.
Costa asked that he and Leonard be
paroled On their recognizanee until to-
day. when they would pay their fines.
The magistrate granted the request,
whereupon Sherman Moulton. counsel
for the elevated, objected.

the fines were sufficient and that he
could not refuse parole.

WOULD KEEP BIBLE
AWAY FROM YOUNG
Professor Kent Says Few Stories
in Old Testament Are Fit
for Children.

There are not more than, say twelve
stories of the Old Testament that are
-eminently suited for a child under
the age of eleven or twelve years" said
Charles Foster Kent, professor Of
Biblical literature of Yale University,
TO the Jewish Religious School Union
of New York last night at its annual
meeting at Temple Emanuel.
Professor Kent specifically cited the
story Of the murder Of Abel by Cain
as being under his ban. That story,
he said. was of no value to the child
in adolescence.
He told of a Columbia professor who
refused to force the Old Testament on
his son, with the result that when the
boy grew up he became a deyout reader
of the Bible and referred to 1t as a
book Of "corking good" stories.
In childhood, said Professor Kent,
the mind is 700 young to grasp the sig
nifcance Of Ri lical writings, and it
was only in after years that the true
meaning was realized.
"One-half of the Old Testament he
said. could be put on the shelf"

German Army
Official Report

Berlin. Dec. 2 (bv wireless to Lon
don).-The official statement issued by
the German headquarters to-day says !:
"On the coast of Flanders the bad
condition Of the roads, made worse by
the recent torrential rain, is causing
great difficulty 10 the movements of our
troops.
ITO the north Of Arras we have made
some slight progress.
"The war hospital at Liesle was
burned down yesterday. This is prob
ably a case Of arson. There were, how
ever, no lives lost.
"The statement made by the French
regarding an advance in the forest of
Argonne is not in accordance with the
facts. For a long time no French at
tacks whatever have taken place there.
On the contrary, We are continually
gaining ground slowly.
"The day before yesterday a French
position at Malincourt, east of Va
rennes, was captured. The greater part
Of the garrison fell on this occasion.
The remainder, two officers and about
100 men, were taken prisoners.
"A French attack on our positions 70
the north of Nancy was repulsed yes
terday.
mo special reports are at hand from
the East Prussian frontier.
In Northern Poland the German
troops are closely pursuing the retreat
ing army to the east and to the south
of LODI. Besides the extraordinarily
large and sanguinary losses reported
yesterday the Russians have lost to-
day about 1900 prisoners and sixteen
cannon with ammunition carts.
'ln Southern Poland nothing special
has happened."
