CHRISTMAS CHEER APPEAL
FOR THE POOR is SUCCESS
Evening Stars Campaign for Assistance for Needy Leads
to Receipt of Many Contributions Letters of SYM
pathy for Cited Cases, With Promises of Aid Received

That the Evening Stars cam
paign to raise funds to provide Christ
mas cheer for the needy ones of the
city will be successful Is now fore
gone conclusion. Not that this should
be taken as an indication that funds
are pouring in. On the contrary ac-
tual contributions to the fund have
been very slow, But that a feeling
of sympathy is being aroused which
will, in the end, result in the success
of our movement, there can be no
doubt. Numerous letters expressing
sympathy for the children in the
cited cases are being received and
these sympathetic expressions are
coupled with promises to contribute
substantially later on. 1t may be
possible that there is a disposition
to hold back and let others lead In
contributing toward the fund. II
such is the case the Evening Star
suggests that the movement cannot
come to a successful issue.
Let each one send what he or she
can spare, regardless of what anyone
else does. The smaller contributions
will be as welcome as the larger ones
from those who can well afford IT..
Bear in mind the story of the
widows mite and give as your cir
cumstances permit.
The following letter was received
from a prominent city official:
II have read today in your valu-
able paper, with feeling Of deep
sympathy, case No. 4, OF the widow
with five small children struggling
so bravely for existence.
ssIf vop will give me the Informal
ton necessary in this case. ] shall
endeavor to alleviate, at least In a
measure, the suffering of this woman
and her little ones"
Certainly the appeal in the cases
whose histories are given below is
strong enough and the feeling of fell
lowship and good cheer at this sea-
son should be Incentive enough to

BERLIN, Nov. 10 (by courier to
Rotterdam and thence by mail to New
York; Baron Won Scholemer, MIN
lister of agriculture, today put to fight
the idea that Germany can be forced
into Submission by starvation. With
his fingers figuratively on the agri-
cultural resources of the country,
Baron Schoriemer went into much. de-
tail in attempting to prove his asser-
tion that Germany can feen her popu-
lation and vast armies Tor an in
definite period without importations
of farm products and foodstuffs.
"If Engan thinks she can starye
Germany into submission, failing to
conquer us by arms said the Ger
man minister of agriculture, "she will
find she has made a miscalculation.
Germany can produce enough food to
feed her population for any period
the war may last, provided We con-
tinue our economizing and elimination
of waste. Germany will not starye-
no, nor half starve."
Baron Won Schorlemer, who has
been mentioned frequently as the next
imperial chancellor, throughout his
interview was unusually candid. He
frankly admitted that he was not
exactly an optimist on the food
question when the war broke out. :

"PHE0N.DRoPPING."

A we.lpiauned scheme of pigeon dropping came 10 grief at the Rock Island uepot saturday afternoon. An elderly negro woman named EsJel- Woods, who resides about four mics south of town, picked up from the platform a pocket book containing $500 just a. tie 4:l4 west bound pas senger train ~as pGlliug out. She was approached by three negro men, who lad observ-d her pick up the purse and open il. exposing the mou- ey. They pursuaded her, she stated after"aId, 10 allow them 10 take care of the find for her She was then sent acr, ss the street To the business part Of town with instructions 10 sell the ppcketbook and contents for s2I0. She, after relating her story, was Of fered sll0 Returning to tue depot. the three negroes told her tO accept the sll0, but when she went back, the supposed prospective buyer informed her the deal was of. as the banks were closed and he did hot have that amount on hand On Ter way back 10 the depot she encountered MT Em- nett Buford, To whom she told the story. and Mr Buford and Mir Al tJtChCbS dAARLI RdiIIrd iiSI u Eilhcstl- gate. When the three negroes saw the woman returning in company Of two white men, they became fright ened and started on run 10 make their getaway. Two of them, how ever, were captured in the Naccaro. Gl lobmyer lumber yard and lodged in jail One of these, it transpired, was suspected of being Mississippi mur- deref, and was returned 10 the scene .of his alleged crime Monday. The ID 4n with the pocketbook made good his escape and has not been apprehen ded
 IL is quite clear that the whole thing was the rankest kind of a pig con dropping scheme. There is no doubt il was prearranged for the men to drop the pOcket-b0Uk and for the woman tO ind il. IL is claimed the pocket book contained s500 bill, sey- eral bills of smaller denominations and some silver. If there was really any money in the book il must have been counterfeit, and the plant" was arranged so the possessors of the spurious stuff might get rid Of it without danger 10 themselves They simply used the woman as a shield.
 No claim has been made for any lost money, and the loser of the above alleged amount would be pretty apt to make a loud "holIer." and do it quick.
