A meeting of the park commit
tee of the Greenville Commercial
Club was held last Thursday and
they unanimously recommended
the purchase of the Helm prCp-
erty, containing about thirteen
acres, known as the East Fifth
street site, it being the most suit
able for park purposes of any
proposed. At the next meeting.
the Council will be asked for the
sum of $4,000 to be placed on the
budget for January. 1915, to help
defray the expense of purchase
and fitting up the park. AS soon
as the sale is made, several in
fiuential citizens stand ready to
donate large sum of money to
beautify and furnish the park
with everything necessary to
make it a pleasant and delightful
municipal park.
A cutting affair, the result of
a quarrel between Harry Coombs
and Glen Coffin, took place at the
Coombs Bros livery barn aboutS
o'clock Sunday evening, in which
Coffin badly stabbed and slashed
Coombs with a knife, one thrust
penetrating a lung and another a
kidney. During the trouble they
clinched and fell to the floor,
with Coombs on top. 1t was then
that Coffin got in his work with
the knife, the result Of which
may possibly be the death of
young Coombs. Coffin has been
a hostler at this barn for some
time, but OF late has been quite
quarrelsome, eliminating in this
cutting affray. 1t required a
great number of stitches to close
up the several WOUNDS on
Coombs' body, but after this was
done he was taken to the home
of his sister, Bessie Coombs, on
Vine street, where he lies prob.
ably mortally wounded. Coombs
is about 27 years old and Coffin
about 35. The latter has a wife
and two children. After the cut
ting Coffin made bis getaway and
is still at large. although descrip-
tions of him were sent immedi-
ately to all the nearby towns, and
he may soon be apprebended.

of unwilling the Fort Edwards monu-

such person. As will be recalled oy
readers Of the Bulletin, the effort was
finally successful, through the GOOD

are residing In New Orleans. one Of
whom is Mrs. w. R. Stauffer. How

Stauffer has just reached her. The
letter was received in dus course of
mail ct our residence, but who ever
received Il unfortunately placed It In

these good Intentions were not carried
out, delivery was overlooked, and the
letter has just been delivered.
Mrs. Stauffer begs to express her
high appreciation Of the honor. feeling
that no greater distinction could come
to her than 70 assist in the ceremonies
commsmorating the establishment Of
Fort Edwards by her grandfather,

Mrs. Stauifer wants to thank you
for the privilege and favor offered and
to express her deep regret at the un-
fortunate incident which prevented
her assisting in the ceremonies.
Very respectfully,

APPEAL
FOR RECRUITS
English Are Told That They Are
Liable to Become Subjects OF
the Kaiser.

tBy Ed l.. Keen, STAFF Correspondent
OF the United Prcss.l
LONDON, Sept. 81. (By mail to New
York. )-Arhtur Nee, the well known
Cardiff editor and journalist, has just
written the greatest appeal yet made
to the men Of England to take up
arms for their country. He declares
that England is facing possible an
Inhalation and that unless it's citizens
put forth every effort they can that
they may become subjects of the kais-
er. His article follows:
England is fighting for the right
to be free nation. She is fighting,
not only for France and Belgium, but
for her own homes.
This war Is hundred times more
important than the Boer war. 1t
means life and death for us. We are
fighting to keep our word but we are
fighting also to keep our homes. We
are fighting, with France and Belgium,
to keep the Germans out OF England.
But the German army presses on,
and your homes, your country, these
quiet streets, are in peril. You must
help England now II you want to save
her. II the Germans win you will be
a subject Of the kaiser. You will no
longer be free sitizen; you will be
a Prussian slave, ruled with an iron
rod by officers from Potsdam.
There is no doubt about it and it
is possible that unless you strike a
blow now, the last days Of our free
nation may be upon US. 1t Is possible
that the German army may defeat the
allies. It is possible that the British
fleet may be beaten and that the Ger.
man troops will land in England.
III Germany should beat us you
will be a colonist Of Prussia. Your
children will be taught German and
compelled to speak It; your boys will
be German conscrips. You will be
taxed to keep up the German army;
which will keep you down. You will
loose all that England has given you
your free speech, your vote, your
free newspapers, your right to organ
ize.
Germany is not a democratic coun-
try. In England the people own the
government, in Germany the govern
ment owns the people. The British
idea Is that the will Of the people
must prevail; the German idea is that
the will OF the people must agree
with the will Of the emperor.
In England the army Is the serv-
ant of the nation; in Germany the
military class overrides the people.
In England the king rules through the
minister's: in Germany the emperor
rules without them.
There is no secret about the Ger
man emperor's Intentions. He means
to conquer England and France. He
is throwing away masses Of troops
70 stagger the allies to defeat by
force of numbers, and is terrifying
the civil population by cruelties too
horrible to believe.
He could have stopped the war by
a word; he could even now stop the
shooting down of innocent populations
and the destruction of beautiful build
ings and works OF art.
But he does not because he dare
not. 1t is his way Of winning and he
must win at any cost if he is to save
his throne. He has staked his crown
on the defeat of England in order
that he may strip us of our trade and
be master Of all Europe.
THE German are almost at our
gates. The gallant Belgians and
