OFFICIALLY NOTIFIED
THAT WAR Is UNDER WAY

;, WASHINGTON, August 4.-Sccretary
Bryan announced to-day that this gov
eminent had received from the Ger
man government an official declaration
that state of war existed between
Germany and France.
A similar declaration is expected
from France. with the notification
from Germany came the information
that American citizens would not be
allowed to leave Germany during the
period OF mobilization.
The legal authorities OF the govern
ment in two branches to-day said that
this step would not be challenged by
tho United States, as II was war
measure. One Of the authorities said:
THE United States has no reason to
complain. The holding of foreigners
in Germany is purely Il war power
function. Germany has just as much
right to hold person who might carry
it's plans abroad as IL would have to
stop kilograms or letters conveying
such informst ton"
Nevertheless. Germany was asked TO
define her notification as to the reten-
ton Of American citizens. State De
partment officials seem to be optimis-
tic as to the result. and think that
nothing will be needed but diplomacy
to secure proper definition.

Death Of Joseph HAYES.

Our people were inexpressibly shock
ed Sunday morning to learn of the
death of Joe Hayes, o. Albion, who
was found dead by his wife about IL
O'Clock the evening previous.
MIR. Hayes was in Cresco during the
evening and started home with load
of cement, flour and other articles, and
on his way met his sons on their way
to Granger.
Mrs. Hayes heard the team come in
the yard and went out to meet her hus.
band, and not finding him started down
the road to meet him but found him
lying dead at the foot of very steep
bill about 40 rods from the home.
The cause of his death is but conjec.
ture. There were some indications
that he might have been jolted from
the wagon by bad piece of road
where he was found, or he might have
fallen from the wagon after an attack
of heart trouble to which he was sub.
ject.
Funeral services were held at
St. Kearnes church at 1880, Tuesday
morning. conducted by Father Burke,
of DEBORAH.
MIR. Hayes was one of the old resi-.
dents of Albion Township, but was
planning to remove to Cresco after
life time of hard work which had gained
him competence. He was an honor.
able, upright man whose every acquaint-
ance was his friend, and who sincerely

Real Standby Of the Time When PEG

At Present.

Bean porridge hot, bean porridge
cold, bean porridge in the pot nine
days old" So every child has chant
ed for year, and every generation.
Some of them have wondered what 1t
meant; more of them have chanted
without wondering, intent only on the
fun of the hand play that goes with
it.
In the old days-the pioneer days
when the men Of the family could
not drop in at . restaurant or cafe
for their lunch, but must take it with
them into the forest where they went
to clear away wood each winter day
bean porridge was a standby.
The good housewife would make up
thick bean porridge and pour it into
little stone pots. In the center Of
each dish of porridge she would put
q string. Then she would stack the
little pots Of porridge upon a shelf
and let them freeze. And each morn
ing when her good man went forth
for the day he would take q mess Of
porridge in the pot, often nine days
old. with him.

EALING Birth Rate.

more collins were being needed
than cradles, more hearses than baby
carts, in France" said Father Bernard
Vaughan, speaking on his investiga.
tons into the birth rate in France,
America and England.
In II departments in France, he
said the death roll call was In excess
of the birth rate. For every French.
man born there were three Germans.
In the United States much the same
shrinkage would be recorded but for
the incoming foreigner. In England
the outlook was dismal enough-a fall
in a generation from IS per 1000 to
21 and % per 1000. Doctors were
being called in for one birth only in Z
family.
