The late King Edward practiced
daylight saving on lines similar to
those proposed in the daylight saving
parliamentary hill. For many years
and Sandringham he caused his clocks
to be advanced 80 minutes during
the summer months, and in the last
two years of his life he caused the
same rule to be observed at Windsor

Representative Henry, whose objec-

recent dinner in Waco:
Take the Cinderella story. The
prince, you will remember, rejected
the two old and ugly sisters, and then
the beautiful Cinderella slipped on the
glass slipper and the young man made
her his bride"
Mr.. Henry paused, then he added:

.UHLAN LANCE PEN
ETRATES ABCESS
AND CURES MAN

PARIS, Dec. 4.-The chief of a bat
talon of colonial infantry tells of this
remarkable incident:
Before the war broke out suffer
ed from an abscess of the liver that
was so placed that the doctors said an
operation would be too dangerous. 1
had before me the little comforting
thought that l should have to live with
that a5scess as long as it would let
me. With this prospect in view, it did
not cost me any effort at all to sum-
mon the courage to wade into the Ger
mans.
"One day we fell upon band of
Uhlans; we landed every one of them,
but, in the melee, the point of lance
put me on my back with a wound that
thought would finally end my suffer-
ings. They carried me to the ambu-
lance and a surgeon began to investi-
gate the wound. What was that you
had inside of you, anyway he asked.
Whatever it was, that Uhlan has
burst it. The lance had pierced the
abscess and roughly performed, with
success, the operation that the sur
geon dreaded, and now l am almost
ready to go back to the front"

MANY SOLDIERS
Do MENTAL WORK
(By Associated Press.)

BAR-LE-DUC, Dec 4.-Tens of
thousands of soldiers in the active
fighting army at the front have not
fired a shot for a month or two at a
TIME. They serve their fortnight at
the extreme firing line, some hours a
day in the trenches or just next to
them with their own artillery throw
ing SMELLS over their heads, but never
having the chance to empty cartridges
at their adversaries. The intervals in
the reserve lines are spent in hard
work, trenching and fortifying, repair
ing roads, building shelters for them
selves and the horses and in towns,
where quartered, keeping streets
clean.
The private is becoming thoroughly
tired of the war, but his attitude to-
ward all the unromantic aspects OF
bis work is fine. He understands that
in mending a road he is contributing
to the success of the French armies
just as though he were firing gun.
Although he wants the war to get on
ward and end, he cheerfully takes the
commonplace with the excitement,
Some of the excellent roads back of
the lines are being repaired with poles
cut from the forests laid crosswise,
Iaaking the old fashioned American
corduroy road"

BETWEEN RAIDS
BOLD BURGLARS
SOMEWHAT QUIET
OTHER RAIDS ARE EXPECTED
AND RESIDENTS SHOULD PRE-
PARE FOR DEFENSE.

So far as the police were informed
this morning, no other burglaries last
night followed the four committed
early yesterday morning on Prospect
Heights, when raid was made upon
the Guerry store, the G. W. Cannon
store and residence, and the garage of
Mr. ]. T. Warren. This is the burgl-
ar's busy season, and as so many idl-
ers and tramps are strolling about it
behooves the officers to be doubly Wig
liant. At the same time property
owners can materially aid in breaking
up this nefarious business by keeping
a shotgun or revolver within easy
reach and opening fire upon the first
burglar caught inside, or breaking in.
Just a few jobs for the undertaken
will have a wonderfully deterrent eff

CLARK's SLAYER
ACCORDED TRIAL
SUPERIOR COURT
WHITE MAN PUT UPON TRIAL FOR
HAVING KILLED AGED NEGRO

In superior court today the morn
ing session was taken up in the trial
of Ivey Kaylor, white man, indicted
for murder in having killed Stephen
Clarke, an old negro who resided in
the Fifteenth district, near Leslie.
The homicide was committed on a
Sunday morning in the past summer
when Kaylor, it is alleged, went to the
home of the old negro, Clark, and shot
him to death in his cabin.
Kaylor put up the plea of self de-
fense," alleging that the old negro ad-
vanced upon him with a knife. There
were no eye witnesses to the actual
killing, it is said
The homicide aroused considerable
interest in the community, and Kaylor
has been in the Americus Jail since he
killed Clarke. His wife, to whom he
had not long been married, was in at
tendance upon the trial this morning.
The defense did not introduce any
evidence and thus had the opening and
closing arguments. A verdict will
doubtless be reached early in the af-
ternoon, it is believed.
The grand jury was again in session
this morning after recess since
Tuesday, and is rapidly concluding it's
business for the term.

BERLIN, Dec. A semi-official re-

through the North German Gazette, to
avoid insulting language about the
rulers of the countries with which
Germany is at war. 1t quotes Treit-
schke's words: War is a sacred mat
ter" and says that the present war
has called forth and intensified all the
noble qualities lying dormant in the
souls of the people. The newspaper
declares that caricatures Of King
George, the Car and President Poin-
care are often exhibited in shop win
dows which do no credit to the dignity
of tie German people, and it contends
that Germany must show itself supe-
rior 10 her foes not only on the battle
field, but also in the intellectual wea-
pons of warfare employed.

GENERAL ROBERTS
WANTED CENSORSHIP
OF NEWS REMOVED
BELIEVED THAT FOLKS AT HOME
HAD A RIGHT TO KNOW OF THE
BRAVE DEEDS OF THEIR Low
ED ONES AT THE FRONT
(By Associated Press.)

LONDON, Dec. 4.-Lord Roberts
views as to the secrecy maintained
by the English military authorities re-
garding war news which were widely
quoted on the day following his death,
are given as follows by a French jour-
mails who talked with "Bobs" just be-
fore his departure for France:
while primary object of my visit to
France is to see my Indian troops, 1
intend to speak to General French also
about the too great secrecy which is,
to my mind, kept by the military au-
thorities at the front and at home
concerning the work of the brave
deeds of the English soldiers.
81 naturally approve that all mill
tary movements, whatever they be,
should be kept absolutely secret from
war correspondents, but it seems to
me that they should be allowed to re-
ceive at least fair medium of in
formation. Why not allow them to
write, for instance, in detail of the
glorious actions fought by our troops,
several days, it goes without saying,
after these actions have taken place?
l am referring naturally to the En-
glish lines. You in France are in a
opsition different from us. You have
conscription. Every man is called to
the colors, and you do not rely on the
public enthusiasm to recruit your ar
my at all.
In England we want men, many
more men, and if we do not let our
people at home know in detail of the
life of our soldiers at the front, Of
their brave fights and gallant deeds,
how shall we awake in the soul of
our young men the high sentiment Of
emulation which will strongly contrib
ute to lead them to the recruiting Of
fee?
"They are brave, no doubt, and will
ing to offer their lives to their country
if necessary. But they often do not
know that it is absolutely necessary
and that every minute they lose now
is a priceless minute, maybe a battle
jeopardized in the future. They do
not know we'll enough that our men
are always fighting against tremen-
dous odds, that we want more men
and still more men to equalize mat
ters. They are not sufficiently able to
follow day by day the life and the
fighting of their friends who have en-
listed" Dt
