Obituary

The funeral services over the re-
mains Of the late Mrs. B. G. Howey
were held from st. James church
last Friday afternoon.
A large gathering Of relatives,
friends and neighbors followed the
remains to their final resting place
In Highland cemetery.
The pallbearers were Reuben Old
land, H. T. Wilson, Ed T. WILDER,
J. d. Miller, J. f. Rooney and J. w.
G. Shepherd.
Lucy A. (Stith) Howey was born
November 81. lS49, in Jasper county,
Mo-. and was united in marriage to
B. c. Howey. June %, 1888, at Garth
age, Mo. Died, September IL, 1914,
aged "a years, 8 months and 70 days.
Mrs. Howey was pioneer in this
valley, having moved to this COM
munity in August, 1885. and, in COM
pany with her husband, did her
share in acquiring and building up
the fine Howey farm on Flag creek.
She was devoted wife and mother.
To mourn her taking away, she
leaves a husband and three sons
Herbert s., George r. and L. E.
Howey, the last named, and young
est, coming from Portland, Oregon,
to pay his tribute of filial devotion.

The Triple Entente

The triple entente, a friendly bond
between Russia. England and France,
IL . legacy which Edward VII, OF
Englald left to posterity. He was
the moving spirit in Its formation.
It bessn with an agreement entered
into between Great Britain and
France and was completed by later
agreement with Russia and the two
others3n 1907.
Its Nrmation was actuated by sew
eral things. but chiefly by the growth
Of Cad sany's naval power. That
could bSintsrpreted only as q menace
to England, for England is the su-
preme lord Of the seas.
England's admittance into the un-
derstanding between Russia and
France made the triple entente a
formidable force to reckon with If
united In action.
The Anglo French agreement. 30
called, OF 1904, was rather a diplo-
matte compromise than an agree
ment, France conceded certain rights
claimed on the French shore OF New
foundland for an indemnity. England
on her part recognized the claims
and ambitions Of France In Morocco,
In other words q free hand In that
sphere. France agreed not to fortify
opposite to Gibralter, accepted
British occupation Of Egypt, and
England guaranteed the neutrality
of the Suez canal. Other agreements
covered thirty years free trading In
Egypt and Morocco and minor dis
puted boundaries.
The Anglo Russian convention of
1907 regulates the interests In west
and central Asia, and amounted
when made to the practical abandon
ment Of the traditional hostility Of
England to Russia; also removing
the chances of collision in Asia,
where the two nations had long been
in q state of antagonistic contact, in
Persia, Thibet and Afghanistan.
England agreed not to seek conces-
sions in certain parts Of Persia and
Russia to observe the same rule In
other parts. In their respective
spheres of influence either power
might use force to collect debts.
Afghanistan Russia declared out
of her sphere, and both powers
agreed to negotiate as to Thibet,
through China.

Il The Triple Alliance

The triple alliance at present ex-
isting sbetween Germany, Austria
Hungary and Italy was originally
formed on May 20. 1882, and renewed
from Ame to time, the last time on
Deceusber Z, 1912. 1t was the crown
ing naAsterpiece and, next to the
uniflcAtion Of Germany, the greatest
diplomatic achievement of Prince
Bismarck, Germany's great "iron
chancellor. 1t was really the out
growth Of the dual alliance between
Germany and Austria, concluded on
Octobsr 7, 1879, and signed at Vienna
by Count Andrassy, then Austro-
Hungarian minister Of foreign af-
fairs, snd Prince Reuss at that time
German ambassador at the Austrian
court.
Italy entered the triple alliance In
1882, soon afte the French invasion
Of Tunis had aroused the Italian
people 70 point Of wrath and bitter
ness which for the moment quite ex-
tingnis1ed all ancient grudges
toward Austria, and even tempora-
rily :qnleted the agitation for the
''redennption" of the Trentino and
Triest.
As for the German aspect Of the
case, the Italian course toward
Turkey weakened Italy manifestly
ss an ally since 1t diminished her
European army and increased her
vulnerAbility to Anglo French at
tack. But, what WAS even more
serious, 1t shattered the bonds be-
tween Germany and Turkey because,
although Germany had assumed the
position of protector of Turkey and
In return counted upon the Turkish
army as a reinforcement Of the
armies of the triple alliance, she was
obliged to stand aside and permit her
ally 10 attack and dismember her
friend.
