ed by the British censor>-The
battered forts of Liege, for days
the admiration OF the entire civi'
lized world because of their her
oic defence against the German
invasion, are the tomb of thous'
ands of brave men.
@ Once representing mans high
est genius as works of defense,
today they a>e great ruins OF
broken concrete and twisted
steel.
DeeD in these ruins are bodies
of many Of their defenders, lew
of whom survived the fire OF the
;; deadly German siege guns. 1t Is
almost impossible to approach
them, so horrable is the stencil
from the ds.composing bodies OF
so ne of the bravest soldiers who
ever fought in the battle. Not
one fort survived the terrible
rain of explosives fr ON the new
AZ centimetre guns which are the
latest product of the Krupp fac
tory, That Liege was able TO
hold at al. was due TO the
failure of the German command
| er 10 have these guns brought
up at once from the rear.
The guns were mounted tive
miles away from the forts, bu'
so accurately had the German
f aviators aimed them that hardly
Z a shot missed, They dropped re
r peatedly on the 12-foot stee

feet from the ground finally max

NO CROSS, NO CROWN.

Tie Saviour says; If any
man would be my disciple, let
bin deny himself, take up the
cross, and follow me-" From
this we learn that the christian
virtues do not consist excluslvc'
ly, in doing what we wantto do,
in doing what sccords with the
natural incjinations OF tie hu
man disposition. but that trey
urfrequentiy consists in doing
what We don't want to uJ, IN
what we heartily despise and
would gladly leave undone. were

1t requires no sacrifice, 10
self denial, TO be polite and ob'lg'
ing to those from whom we ex'
pect a favor il return: nor
neither is it a grievous burden
TO give to the needy those things
which we are done using, or Cal
J not readily convert into cash;
but to give expecting no return.
to share our scanty store with
strangers and even with enemies,
requires a mighty effort a pow

MORE SENSATIONS
IN T0SCAS CASE
Evidence Falsely Translated
by Interpreter at Inquest
Says Report.
CASE GOES TO
GRAND JURY NOW
Will be fully Investigated by
Ramsey County Body
Next Week.

Evidence showing that the testi-
falsely translated ut the inquest on
the death Of Nick Triboynas, three
weeks ago, and that Triboynas was
shot intentionally by Peter Toscas,
now being held by the police, will, 1t
Is reported, be presented to the RAM
sey county grand jury when that body
re-assembles at Devils Lake, Novem-
her ~.
Eye witnesses of the affair now say,
it is declared, that there was malice
between the two men. and that the
automatic shot gun with which Tri-
boynas was killed was brought to Dev-
lis Lake for the purpose of committing
the alleged murder.
These facts are reported to have
been brought to light by the investi-
cations of q Greek from the twin
cities, who has been probing the
shooting.
At the time Triboynas was killed,
Toscas was exonerated by the cor
oner's jury, which held that the shoot
ing was accidental. The testimony
of the eye witnesses as translated by
the interpreter appeared to bear out
this claim. and there was no evidence
of motive for Intentional shooting.
The shot gun with which the shoot
ing was done was brought to Devils
Lake by Christ Toscas Of Grand Forks.
Q cousin Of the man who Is said to
have done the shooting. He stated
that he took the gun to Devils Lake
with him for hunting purposes.
At the time of his arrival in the city
he went to a shack on the outskirts
Of tho town where Peter Toscas and
Triboynas were staying. He showed
those present how the gun was load
ed. A few moments later Peter Tos-
cas- picked the gun up. 1t exploded,
and Triboynas received the charge in
his body dying Immediately.

Improvement.

According to Fire Marshal Runge
there has been a great decrease in the
number Of fires in the larger cities of
the state, where the department has
been able to work and where the
rules and regulations made by it have
been followed. There have, however,
been more fires in the country, and
that is condition that it Is hard to
handle. In many cases it is almost
impossible to reach the rural COM

SAYS STATE DEBT MAY BE REDUCED BY SI5o,OOO A YEAR bO1 THIS WOULD ELIMINATE ALL NEW BUILDINGS, SAYS
 COMMISSION.

Little Rock, Dec 4.-State Tax
 Commissioner F. Epps Brown is now
 gong over revenues of the state for
 the past year and, anticipating the receipts for the next year under all
 state laws, he finds that if the legisla.
 ture makes appropriation for no new
 buildings or for anything but the
 mere operation of the different de- partments of state, there will be an-
 nually s150,000 to apply on the in debtedness of the state.
 Commissioner Brown states that
 the last legislature appropriated s600,O00 for deficiencies which existed
 at the time, and for new buildings at agricultural schools and the insane asylum The legislature of 1913 ap- ipropriated $3,198,00O. There will be
 deficit of s1,100,0OO in the general
 revenue fund on July 1, 1915, the end of the biennial period. This calcula- tlon is based on the present state of the general revenue fund, which Com. mission Brown thinks includes prac- tically everything provided for by the 1913 appropriations, with the excep-
 tion of the bare running expenses of
 the state departments and institutions for the balance of the period.
 The actual cost of operating the state institutions and departments, according to the figures of Commis- sioner Brown, is $96,O00 per month, or S1, ,153 ,000 per annum The le- receipts from all sources for the past year have been $1,390.00O. or about S2, ,S00,000 for the biennial period.
 There has been spent S2,814,5O3 of the S3,198,000 appropriated by the last legislature The actual cost of operating the state government, with out new buildings or improvements, is approximately s1,152,0OO, with re- ceipts of s1, 10000 but no legislature will get through without making heavy inroad into the remainder, if
 not exceeding it entirely.
 Governor Hays has indicated that
 he intends to hew close with his prun- | ing knife, through the veot power, but
 he cannot reduce the cost beyond the actual running expenses.

MAY CLOSE OIL
 MILL FOR SEASON

As a result of yesterdays disas- trous fire in the plant of the Conway Cotton Oil and Gin Company, it is possible that the mill will not be oper- ated again until the beginning of next season. From 60 to 90 days, it is stated, may be required to replace the machinery destroyed by the fire, and unless quicker delivery can be se- cured it would be too late to resume operations this season. Manager J. Frank Jones is in Little Rock today conferring with machinery men, and the board of directors of the company will meet tonight to decide upon what steps to take.

PEN COMMISSION
 HOLDING COTTON

Little Rock, Dec. 4.-The Arkansas penitentiary commission is doing con- siderable in assisting the holding movement in cotton. The commission has not yet sold a bale of the 1914 crop from the Arkansas state farm, and does not contemplate any sales until there is material change for the better.
 The cotton is all picked, and the most of it has been ginned. The state has about 2,200 bales of cotton for sale, as result of the years work on the plantation. Of this cotton, about 1,700 bales was raised on land owned by the state, and the balance on ad- joining land w:.icn was leased by the commissioners in order to provide work for all the convicts on the farm
