LONDON, Nov. 2o.-Berlin military
circles estimate the German losses to
date at 1,25o,ooo In killed. wounded
and missing, according TO copen-
hagen despatch received here today.
This estimate, Il 10 declared, does not
include at least half million sick.
The actual casualty lists, IncludinD
those Of saxony, Wurtembur0 and
Bavaria, admit losses Of $4,000
EXPECT FURTHER VICTORIES.
BERLIN, (via The Hasue), Nov. 20.
Germany expects another defeat OF
the Russians In the eastern theatre OF
war.
Although II Is still stated in official
circles that the fighting In that dis
trict has not yet reached a decisive
stage, the present situation 10 regard
ed AZ favorable 70 the Germans. Gen.
ersi Won Hindenberg has struck with
a heavy force toward Warsaw. A.
THOUGH the German forces have been
reported no further east than kutno,
the BELIEF is general here that an adj
vance has been made beyond that
point and that fighting is now In pro-
eress, possibly within sixty miles Of
Warsaw. With this advance engaging
the greatest attention Of Russians,
little concern Is expressed over the
invasion Of east Prussia. The Rus
ian. have made but little headWay In
the region Of soidau during the past
week. Tie Germans still hold por-
ton OF the Maxurian lake region.
It 10 unofsicIaIIy declared that no At
tempt has been made to assume the
offensive in east Prussia. With the
Russian forces before the Won Hin
denberg army defeated, however, an
other drive may be made In east Prus-
STA TO clear German territory. 1t
would then be the plan to throw the
Russians back into the lake region and
swamps where they were cut to pieces
on the fIrst invasion.

DRIFT or DESTINY" By Walter Idppmann Mitchell Kennerly. publisher. New York
The Birmingham age-herald., 1914-12-27

In one of our "reminiscences, in speaking of the destruction of the Orline St. Jonn' on the evening of March D, 1850, we men, tioned an incident that occurred at the grave of George F. Lindsey. Few if any of our people know anything connected with that name, yet the bearer of 1t died a hero, and 1t has long been the writer's Intention to substantiate the impression that something connected with that death was worthy of perpetuating.
 In the vaults of the Y. M. c. A. of Mobile are kept the records of bygone days, and through the courtesy of the Rev. A. c. Harte, secretary of the asso- citation. were we permitted to procure files of the Mobile Register of March 8, 1850, wherein we found tribute from the bar last resting place deserves the annual WI cath. as truly as do those of the heroes of the Confectionery.
 George F. Lindsey was a native of Pennsylvania, a graduate of Jefferson college of that state. He afterward lived in Lowndes county. Alabama, entered the law office of Thomas Williams, was admitted to the bar and began the prac- tice of law in Mobile in 1s40, during which year he married Eliza, a daughter of Will liam Knox, formerly of Statesburg. s. C., but then a resident of Wilcox county.
 At the time of his death Lindsey was on his way to attend to some matters con- nected with his wifes estate, and as the fire was first seen amidships of the St. John. and all women and children on board were lost, as the stern of the boat swung out into the cold. swift stream. thereby cutting off all escape. what do we find? This young man had no rela- lives nor connections among the passen- gers, and his place was therefore in the forward part of the cabin, yet an eye witness to that terrible disaster tells us that he last saw Lindsey on the stern of the boat with young woman in his arms, and In trying to rescue a south ern maiden did this young son of the north lose his life.
 Let us consider the conditions, political ly. at that time, and we may the better appreciate the sacrifice. The north and south were on the verge of disunion-nay, we may say war-on the question of slav- cry.
 The bitterness of 1860 was not excelled by that of 1850. yet there was Yankee lad, who. by his talents, had at an early age become the partner of Daniel Chandler, one of the foremost lawyers of Mobile. He had married a southern girl, through whose veins coursed the hot blood of South Carolina, and he died, performing the greatest duty e,\r allotted to man. Heroes are not confined to one section of this great American nation.

 Editor Selma Journal: l have just re- ceived a copy of your paper of ith inst. giving an account of tho death of my father Judge George r. Lindsey of Mo- bile. There are several errors in the article, that for the sake of the truth, am tempted to write and correct them. Mir. Foster who gave the item from the Mobile Register. states that the disaster was July 1858, and that my father lost hs life while on the burning vessel
 These are the facts. In March, 1850, my father boarded the steamer Orline St. John at Mobile. intending to go to Selma While near Bridgeport landing the alarm of fire was given. My father and a friend were sitting on the front part of the boat. and as soon they saw the danger they were in, ran down to the lower deck jumped overheard and swan to shore After safely landing my father remem- bered that there were several ladies aboard the boat, without escorts He i'm mediately jumped into the swollen Ala bama, which was then on one of It's usual spring rises, and swam back to the boat to assist in rescuing the ladies.

''Ihe MarseilIaise' and It's History


 A soldier, who was by way of being an amateur poet and musician, wrote and composed "The Marseillais," the great national anthem of France, in a night, says London Answers.
 Rouget de Lisle was his name, and he was captain in the engineers, and 1t was in April. 17s2. that he was in- spired to write the song which brought him fame in flash.
 France had declared war against Aus tria, and de Lisle had volunteered for service in her army. But France, though she was in arms against all Europe at the time, had no great national song, no hymn epitomising her hopes and fears. The mayor of Strassburg, who on the eve of the campaign entertained to dinner as many of the volunteers as of this want of great war song.
 One of the vounteers turned to de Lisle on the mayors words. Come, you are a poet and a musician, can't you write a song?" he asked.
 The young engineer shook his head, but his comrades-perhaps to fiatter him or perhaps because they really had some belief in him-pressed the matter. And so, at last promising to see what he could do, de Lisle took his violin and shut himself up in top room
 All through that night he wooed words and music. and by o'clock in the morning, too excited to be tired, he rushed into the room of the friend who had first made the suggestion that he should try to do something"
 'Iistenv he cried. listen to this, and tell me what you think"
 And there and then, in a bedroom of the house of the mayor of Strassburg, with the sun of a spring morning gleam- ing in at the window, de Lisle first played The Marseillaise"--or called 1t. to a listener.
 The name 'Marseillaise" came through the Parisians first hearing the song sung by the volunteers of Mar seillees.

 City, New York.~
 The primary purpose of Frederick J. Haskin's book, The Panama Canal.o is to tell the layman the story of the Panama canal. It is written, therefore, in the simplest manner possible, consider ing the technical character of the great engineering feat itself, and the involved complexities of the diplomatic history att taching to its inception and undertaking. The temptation to turn aside into the pleasant paths of the romantic history of ancient Panama has been resisted; there is no attempt to dispose of political prob lens that incidentally concern the canal; in short, the book is confined to the
