wisp, was seen in the north part
of town one day this week. The
light was quite large and appear
ed at John Rokusek's place. 1t
travelled east and disappeared

way of his own in placing the sub
iect before his hearers in language

and money making Mr.. MAR will
speak in tie Society hall next Sat-

Earl Roberts Fund
to Equip a Hospital
for Indian Soldiers

Correspondence of the Associated Press)
LONDON, oct. 31.-Earl Roberts is rails
ing a fund which will be devoted exclu-
sively to the use of the Indian forces in
the present war. Already he has re-
ceived $25O,OOO and within two weeks he
hopes to have enough money to equip
a special hospital in the south of England
for the care of the sick and wounded In
dian soldiers
The fund will also be used TO provide
warm clothing ESPECIALLY suited TO the
Indian troops. Rations of the English
army are wholly unlike the customary
diet Of the Indians, and special dishes
will be provided for them out of the fund.
Indians are especially, fond of sugar,
spices and all sorts of sweets.
Princess Mary and her advisers are
making special preparations to send the
Indians Christmas gifts which will espe-
cially appeal to them. 1t is likely the
gifts will take the form of boxes of
candies and other sweetmeats particu-
larly relished by the men from the far
east.

said Prof. Fred Morrow Fling OF the Uni

a permanent peace could rest only on the
recognition OF the right OF all nations to

''If the United States senate had not

A federative world VIII be the final tri-

Fling. In his opinion all nations, weak
and strong, must be accorded their
proper prerogatives and no question must
be settled between a weak nation and a
strong nation by the strong nation, for
injustice is most often done.
The United States, according to DIR.
! Fling. has shown the whole world that
a strong nation can be just toward

The people Of this country" he said,
would not stand for war with Mexico
and that the will of the people worked
| through President Wilson to avert the
| threatened war. Canada and the United
States are living on friendly terms be-
cause the two countries are great and
unselfish enough to realize that questions
which arise have two sides and there
must be a give and take between nations
as between individuals.
Equal Opportunities for All.
I'VE have been slow TO recognize that
nations should have the liberties even as
individuals" said Prof. Fling. I'VE have
secured liberty for the Individual, and
now we must secure 1t for the nations

Irish Recognition
Helps Recruiting
Totals in England

(Correspondence OF the Associated Press.)
DUBLIN, Oct 31.-John Redmond's re-
quest for the official recognition of an
Irish brigade has been met. The nation
alist leader shortly before the .proroga-
tion of Parliament declared that his coun-
trv had a right to claim that Irish re-
cruits for the expeditionary force should
be kept together as unit otficered as
far as possible by Irishmen and COM
posed IL possible of county battalions so
that ireland may gain national credit for
their deeds and feel like other communi-
ties of the empire, that she, too, has
contributed an army hearing her name
in this historic struggle"
Since that manifesto was published re-
cruiting in Ireland north and south has
been active and now the Irish brigade,
as outlined by Mr.. Redmond, is being
formed. 1t will consist OF the Sixteenth
division OF the new army composed of
twelve purely Irish battaiions, with head
quarters at Mallow, County Cork. Most
of its officers, including the commander
will be Irishmen, and Mr.. Redmond has
agreed to regard the division as the Irish
brigade.
Lieutenant General Sir Lawrence
Worthington Parsons, a former gunner
and a Kings county man, has been ap-
pointed 10 the command. Sir Lawrence
formerly held an Irish command, 'while
he did good service in South Africa, be-
ing present at the relief OF Ladysmith
Since then he has been inspector general
of artillery in India. He was knighted
on his retirement two years ago.

French Colonel Gets
Men to Face Severe
Fire with Big Bluff

Correspondence Of the Associate ted PressD
PARIS. Oct. 3l.--How an unnamed lieu
tenant-colonel in the French army suf-
fcned the courage Of his men and his
own when they were about TO charge the
enemy for the first time is told in the
Figaro, The colonel, wounded. but com
valescent, is described as relating the
aneodote on the train as follows:
ut was in the course Of one Of the nu-
nrerous battles on our right wing. For
the first time my regiment was about
to 60 under fire. The moment was de
cisive; the regiment had their battle for
nation and now 1t was necessary, over
open ground. to march straight and reso-
lutely at the enemy. Their fire was hot,
and already had produced revages in our
ranks. It was scourging. had taken
my position at the head OF the regiment
and given the order forward but, sep
arated from their base. my men hesi-
tated. In vain I repeated the command.
Then returning toward them I said:
What? You finch? All you win
gain out of this turnabout is death on
the spot without having been OF any use.
Attention. Take my arm one of you,
and all of you lock arms, and arm in
arm, gun in hand. wen advance. You'll
find that's not so bad
My word! Tho idea decided them, and
arm in arm we started forward. They
soon got warmed up and for a little
was nearly forced to hold them back.
Oh, The brave fellows!"
A woman who was listening said
1T was fortunate colonel, that you
yourself were not afraid" Not afraid'
exclaimed the colonel. "Oh, madam, II
you knew what shivers went through
me. But when 1 saw them hesitate l had
to set an example. I was bluffing."

English Court Order
Brings a Big Change

Correspondence of The Associated Press.)
LONDON, Oct 3L-The announcement
Of the lord chief justice that barristers
who are now serving in the kings army
may appear in court in their uniforms,
rather than in their customary white
wigs and gowns, has produced great
change in the appearance OF the pleaders
who attend the daily sessions of courts
at The Temple.
Scores of young attorneys are univer-
sity men who have entered the service,
but are stu quartered in London or its
vicinity. 1t would be a great hardship
to them to sacrifice the time necessary 10
put on conventional court garb, and the
action of the lord chief justice makes IT
possible for many young attorneys to
look after their practice Notwithstanding
the demands of their military offices.
