It is understood that a deal has
been closed whereby E. D.. Lum Sc
cures the stock in The Valley City
Times-Record, formerly held by e.
M. Warren, of LaMoure. No announce
ment has been made as to the future
management but it is presumed that
Mr.. Lum may take an active part,
An interest in the Melrose paper own
ed by Mr.. Lum was involved in the
deal. With Mr.. Lum owning a con-
trolling interest in The Times Record
1t is but natural to expect some radical
changes not only in the personnel of
the office force but in every depart
ment connected with the business.

NOTES

I'm choosing BoldeouX as the temporary
capital of France, the French Government
has probably taken 4 wise step. The town
IS a port Of the flat consequence being only
surpassed among French ports by MarsoiIles
ON the McditeITNnenn. and Havre at the
mouth OF the Seine. Its position on the Gar
0nne above where it enters the GiiUnd0 is
extremely favourable for the large trade, in
vines especially, which it carries on, while
on the land side the railways and telegraph
hc1Ps put IT in communication with all parts
of tho country. IT'S distance from Paris is
339 mllca by rail, and It's direction from that
city is aouth-southWest, the opposite to that
from which the Germans are advancing.
The total population Of the town is a little
ovor a quarter of Il million.
RHEIMS. Rheims, whose surrender to
ihe Germans was recently reported, is M
ancient town of great historical interest,
sItunted about 100 miles easl-porthpast of
Paris by rail. 1t is said to have been strong
~ fortified after the Franco-Ge herman war of
1870, when tho Germans made it the head
quarters of the invading army. The popu-
lation, which numbers over IA hundred thou
sand, is occupied largely in the manufacture
Of fine textile fabrics. Partly however in
the manufacture Of champagne, from grapes
grown in vineyards covering the neighbour
ing hills.
Tuning from the western field Of warfare
to the eastern, we notice that the campaign
III Galicia between the Russians mud the
Austrians seems to huve been carried out
with much more vigour than that between
the Russians and the Germans in East
Prussia.
LUBLTN. LubIin is a town of about
$4,000 people, mostly occupied III some min
nor manufactures, and exporting corn and
wool. 1t is situated about SO miles 10y rail
from Warsaw.

imports for August having decreased
by l3,0OO,00O pounds, of which sugar

nanutactures 98, SOC, 90. The exports of
coal have decreased by 100000 and Of
manufactures by Is, 100000, including cot
tons and woods 5000, 900, and the ship build
ing trade 2,5G0,0O0. The decreases are
largely because Of their being contraband,
rather than the condition of trade.
The "Alornlng Post quotes d letter from
a high German officer invaided home, say
ing: "Ihe war is not going as we expected.
The Allies resistance is extraordinary and
we are beginning to feel nervous. The Ger
man losses are terrible, so tnat the Kaiser
forbids then disclosure. Our Generals are
wnntouly wasteful of their men, who are
moved down 10y thousands. 1t is impossible
to say what our losses are, but l estimate
them at $4,000 to 400, 600 and ut his rate
we will be unable to meet the Russians"

"MORAL HERO" IS TOPIC
OF REV. LUCIUS C. CLARK
Tells Congregation at Hamline That
Character Should Be Basis
OF Hero Worship.

The Greatest Battle of a Great War
rior' was the subject taken by Rev.
Lucius c. Clark for his sermon last even
ing at Hamline Methodist Episcopal
Church. 9th and P streets northwest The
service, which ushered in the third week
of the month of special gospel meetings
at the church, was attended by a large
congregation.
The moral hero. Who goes through life
unpraised. and who. in many respects is
greater than the military hero. was the
theme of the speaker. who said that char
acter. not brass buttons. should be the
basis both of heroism and of hero wor-
ship.
''Naaman is a type of the sin sick folk
OF the present-day world said Rev.
Clark. in speaking of that warlke leper.
There are people today whose eyes are
so leprous that to them the sinful and
the corrupt appear as the beautiful. Naa-
man was warrior, victor in many
battles, but his greatest battle was a
moral one. a victory over pride and lack
of faith. Just as Naaman got down from
his chariot and dipped himself in the
river Jordan, SO must we get out OF our
chariots of pride and seltishness, and put
on the cloak of humility
The special meetings are to continue
every evening except Saturday through
out the month, commencing at 1.4o
o'clock. There will be a special soloist
for each evening. Music will be furnish
ed by a large chorus and an orchestra

TRY AGAIN. SAYS EVANGELIST
R. Grant Jolly Urges Broken Reso'
luti0ns Be Reassumed.

To those who made good resolutions in
the first days of 1914 and have broken
them ere this, Evangelist r. Grant Jolly
of New York, in a sermon before the
Washington Temple Congregation mon
sectarian in New Masonic Temple
yesterday afternoon gave this advice:
You should get right UP again. and,
with renewed energy, continue the con-
fict with greater faith that you may
overcome the powers that war against
you.
Even though you may be overcome
again and again. the evangelist con-
tinued, you should arise again and
again with still greater faith each time,
confident in the end that you will win
the battle
Mr. Jolly was discussing his topic
THE Soldier of the Cross - whom he de-
clared to be an individual always con-
fronted with the evils of the flesh. who
s never in any sense camp follower.
but rather one always fired with zeal
to live the life that his Lord would have
him."
