The Red Cross in War.

Miss Edith Durham, who had such
opportunities for observation during
the Balkan war as were permitted
correspondents, advanced in a Lon
don lecture, the curious theory that
the Red Cross prolongs the horrors
of war.
Her reasoning runs this way:
Thousands of soldiers who might
otherwise die are preserved through
Red Cross ministrations. The recov-
ery of thousands of sick and wound
ed soldiers is hastened who might
otherwise be incapaciated until af-
ter the war had been finished. These
soldiers are returned to the ranks to
continue fighting after the date on
which the losses imposed by a diff
erent condition might force the end
of the war through the exhaustion OF
one or both sides.
If the Red Cross is in league with
militarism. it is time, indeed, the al
lance is dissolved by the Introduction
of the universal peace era. But hers
is only an academic and rather fam
tastic view. 1t is akin to the cynical
view that ameliorative agencies in
suring better equipment and great
er Longevity in the battle for livell-
hood only prolong an agony that
might sooner be ended.
If the Red Cross extends wars
duration, then exchange of prisoners,
small-caliber bullets, mercy to non
combatants, bombardment of popu-
lous cities only after due notice, and
other humane usages must extend it.
But we know that the duration OF
wars has been greatly shortened since
the days when helpless wounded left
on the field were killed, prisoners
were slaughtered as fast as taken,
wells were poisoned, and women and
children were enslaved. The Red
Cross helps to restrict the vogue of
war by softening ferocities of the
fight that might lead to perpetual in
ternational feuds.-St. Louis Post

Governor Stuart that the State mill

press violation of the Virginia anti

Club tonight abandoned the spring
race meeting, which was to continue
until April II. Sensational raids and
fines and prison terms imposed upon
bookmakers had marked the few
stormy days the meet had been in
progress.
In a formal statement the officials
of the Jockey Club announced that
they had decided to discontinue the
meet to avoid ANY conflict of opin-
ion The statement added that if
the higher courts later construed the
laws so that we can conduct racing
without fostering a violation OF the
laws Of Virginia, We will resume:
otherwise the course will be perma-

AIilitants Make Disturbance in Court
Belfast, Ireland, April S.-Mill-
tant suffragettes created so much
confusion and noise in police court
here to-day when Dorothy Evans and
Madge Muir, officials Of the Belfast
branch of the Women's Social and
Political Union, were brought up for
trial, that proceedings had to be ad-
journed.
Tl,o two u,oDoo, u-oro cha Wit h
having in their possession explosives
for the purpose of committing a
felony.
The court was crowded with wo-
men when the prisoners were brought
in and, acting apparently on signal,
they raised such din that neither
magistrate nor prosecutor could
make himself heard.
AS they were led out the two pris-
oners shrieked that they would not
permit the holding of a court.
The opinion was generally express
ed that orders had been issued from
militant headquarters to the suffra-
gettes to create similar scenes every
time a woman was charged with a
suffrage outrage.
After passing a short period in
their cells. !iss Muir and Miss Evans
were again brought into court. Both
tried to dash into the street and in
the struggle Miss Evans tainted.
When placed in the prisoners en-
closure Miss Muir hurled a grip
sack at the magistrates head and he
promptly remanded both accused in
custody.
