strong Notifications there, the Ser
Wan general staff has directed that
no attempt be made to take the cap
ital by storm. -
Neutrality-suspicious. distinct VIC
tories by the Russians in Russian
Poland were reported to the Russian
embassy today. A cablegram from
Petrograd stated that the German
army has continued it's retreat in the
provinces of SuwaIld and Lenja; that
the bombardment of Ossewitz was
unsuccessful and the German attack
at Andreiew, the dispatch said, was
so crippled that the Germans became
panicky.
New York.-An indication that
Italy plans to take an active hand in
the news censorship, and possibly an
intimation that her expected partici-
patton in the European war will not
much longer be delayed, is contained
in an official notice sent out by the
cable companies today.
Rome.-The Bulgarian minister
here has been ordered to expedite the
immediate return to Bulgaria Of all
officers of the Bulgarian army now in
Italy or Switzerland.
MISREPRESENTATION of the

I tars, and so far as can be ascertained
by the Belgian air scouts not a sim
gle one of them has yet been
mounted.
The Germans have RACED most of
the small villages which constitute
the outlying suburbs of Antwerp.
They have guns posted on the out
skirts of Heystopdenberg, Thisselt,
LOnderzel and the other little towns
which heretofore have been spared
the war penalty. The inhabitants of
all of the villages surrounding Ant
werp have fed either into this city or
across the Dutch frontier for safety.
King Albert continues in personal
charge of the defenses of the city.
He has had the active assistance Of
a number of crack British aYiators,
who are now making their head
quarters here.
Paris.-'We continue to progress
on the right and left" was the la
comic Utterance of military head
quarters here this morning. No de-
tails were given. It is known, how
ever, that the heavy reinforcements
rushed to the front yesterday are
making themselves felt, especially
on the left, where the task of break
ing the power of resistance to the
combined armies of Generals Won
Boehn and Won K1uCk is being push
ed to the utmost.
It was learned today that the
French and British artillery now in
action has been augmented by big
naval guns of the type that proved
so effective with the British in South
Africa. These guns have been sent
to the forces operating in the triangle
of the Disc and the Aisne and to
those north Of the Somme engaged
in driving the Germans from their
strongly entrenched positions there.
Others have been rushed to the army
operating in the WOevre region.

BATTLE HYMNS BIRTH.

Story Of Writing Of Famous War Song
by Julia Ward Howe.
Mrs. Julia Ward Howe told the story
of how she came to write her stirring
song, the Battle Hymn Of the Repub-
lic."
1T was during the second year Of
the war;" she said. land l had gone
to Washington with my husband and
my pastor, the Rev. James Freeman
Clarke. I'had wished many times that
l could do something for my country,
but the way seemed closed. My hus-
band was too old and Ill to go; my son
was only a boy. My children We're SO
young that l could not leave my home
for long myself. While we were, in
Washington there vas a great review
of the troops across the river. We
drove out to see it. While it was In
progress there was a dash made against
some Of our troops by the enemy. 1t
was repulsed, but the review was aban-
doned, and the troops came thronging
back to Washington and we with
them.
1.-THE progress Of our carriage was
slow. for the roads were crowded with
the soldiers. To encourage the men
we began singing various songs and
hymns. and they would join In the
chorus. After we had sung John
Browns Body DIR. Clarke turned and
asked Inc why l did not write some
new words for that music. / replied
that l had tried several times. but new
err could seem to write any good
enough.
1.-The next morning just about 4
o'clock l woke suddenly. AS L lay
there in bed the words Of the hymn
began to form themselves in my mind.
I got up and by the faint light o fHthe
early morning scrawled them on q
piece of paper and then went back to
bed and sound asleep again. That Is
the way the hymn was written. Sat

The u~nehanaina Past.

This is the reason why the past has
such magical power. The beauty Of
its motionless and silent pictures is
like the enchanted purity of late
autumn. when the leaves. though n
breath would make them fall. still
glow against the sky in golden glory.
The past does not change nor strive.
Like Duncan. after life's litful fever.
It sleeps we'll. What was eager and
grasping. what was petty and transit
tory has faded away. The things that
were beautiful und eternal shine out Of
it like stars in the night. Its beauty
to a soul not worthy of it is nnendur-
able. but to Il soul which has conquer.
ed fate the past is the key Of religion.

First Northern Memorial Day.

The first observance Of Memorial
day in the north was in 1866 at Wa

had the veterans Of his post decorate
the graves of their comrades. In 1857
T. G. Campbell Of Cincinnati marched
his post to the graves and laid wreaths
on them. In 1868. following General
LOgan's request, there was a general
observance of the day wherever Union
soldiers were buried.
