GERMANS UNITED
AGAINST RUSSIA
Socialists Abandon Anti
War Policy When Rus
sian Army Moves.

Berlin. Ger, Sept There were
here and elsewhere up TO the yer!
hours when war was declared by Ger
many, France, England and Russia
many ingenious fdealists who really be-
heved that the great Socialist parties
in Germany and France would make
a general war impossible. For them,
the stupendOus, almost inconceivable,
kaleidoscope events Of the last few
days before the commencement of hos
tilities, provided a rude awakening.
Since the days Of 1870, it is no exag-
geratLon to say. never was there a mo-
ment when France and Germany were
less DESTROYS OF war than at this time.
in Germany, at any rate, it was not
the Social Democrats alone who op-
posed war; every political party pre-
resented in the Reichstag favored
peace
The same thing was true Of the So
cialists in the French chamber Of depu-
ties What, then, was the cause for the
the collapse OF their influence under
circumstances which one would have
thought most favorable for its exer-
else2 The explanation, 50 far as the
German Socialists are concerned, is
Comparatively simple.
Military Party Controls.
At the last moment. when Germany
was seething with excitement and the
whole nation was in a ferment, the So
Cialists. and every other political party
as well, indeed the government itself.
were swept completely off their feet
by the military party
From the moment it became known
in Germany that Russia was mobiliz-
ing, not against Austria-Hungary alone,
but on the German frontier as well the
whole control Of German policy passed
into military hands The Socialists
no less than the other political parties
and even the government were power
less The chancellor and the foreign
office were impOtent- Still less was
there time or opportunity for the Ger
many public TO exercise its influence.
The Socialists were opposed TO war, but
they could do nothing against the all
powerful military party
Russia Is Blamed
All that the public was told was
that Germany had been tricked by Rus
STA. that while the kaiser was still in
tervening at Vienna, to prevent war,
at the cars request. the Russian gov
eminent was hurrying on its mobili-
zatiOn with the intent Of attacking
Germany before its own defenses were
ready
Against this, even the Socialist Dem
ocrats were helpless. They themselves
had no other information on which to
base their Judgment and such is the
German hatred Of the reactionary, au-
LOcratic cZardOm. that If Russia were
determined to attack Germany. there
was not a social Democrat in the cOun-
try who was willing for war but anx-
ious TO take up arms himself, at once.
A gainst the Austrian ultimatum to Ser
via the Socialists had protested from
the start And when Austria declared
war, the Socialists had held crowded
meetings Of protest in every German
city and town, but when it was Russia

menacing the peace Of Europe, that was
a different matter
Consider Russians Barbarfans.
There was no time for the Socialists
to think or to test evidence. In their
eyes II was not a dynasty or a form
Of government that was threatened, but
their very civilization itself Russia,
in the eyes Of the Germans. including
the Socialists, is a rampant barbarism,
ready at all times to sweep over their
borders and destroy the culture the
Germans have built up.

German invasion Of Belgium. a meet

Socialists was held to discuss the at

Of the committee voted in favor Of ac-
cepting the demands without opposition
and in the afternoon the supplies were
voted without a dissenting Socialist

Ownershlp of Land Accretion.

The title of an owner of land to any accretions to the land was the ques- tion presented to the supreme court of appeals of Virginia in Eggborn vs. Smith, in which Interesting decisions on the point involved are cited. In the Virginia case the plaintiffs husband for a consideration permitted a rail road company to deposit rock and earth on land owned by him during double-tracking work. under contract that all such material not removed be- fore the work was completed should remain permanently. The owner exc cuted a deed of trust of the land with out serving the material so deposited, but on the day the property was sold under foreclosure of the trust deed he attempted to convey the material as personally to the complainant. The court found that the complainant had made no claim to the property until five years after it's deposit. when 1t was overgrown with vegetation. and held that the material vas realty and not personal property. and passed to the purchaser on foreclosure of the trust deed"

South American Friaorificos Will Soon Be Turning Out an Immense
 Supply of Food.

A frigorifco is freezing plant in South America. It Is plant that freezes fat cattle or sheep or lambs and sends them In refrigerated ships northward to Europe. Perhaps later they will send them to the United States.
 On the Island of Tierra del Fuego, far south to the jumping off place. sheep get very fat on the good grass. Incredible as it may seem, short time ago fine fat sheep were boiled down for their tallow. Now a mod ern frigorifico is prepared to kill them and send them north of the equator. There is another of these newly erect ed frigorificos at Rio Gallegos, an. other little way up the coast at San Julian and other new ones are at Bahia Blanca.
 These frigoriflcos make possible the directing of a great stream of good lamb and mature mutton northward, and we here may expect to see 1t come, sooner or later. Cattle are not killed at these southern frigorificos, but farther north, near Buenos Aires and in Uruguay are great establish ments that kill chiefly cattle. To facilf- tate the getting of sheep to the frigorificos the government Is build ing the Patagonia state railways. lead ing to the interior.-Breeder3' Gazette.

CALLED LOW CLASS OF ART
Sweeping indictment of Music to Which Song Home, Sweet Home"
 Has Been Set.

Though the oldest piece of English music in existence, summer is leu men in" is quite modern in compari- son with a score of the "Orcstes' of Euripides, dating from the fourth cen tury B. C., which was exhibited at the international exhibition of music at Vienna some years ago. Even more ancient Is the chant The Blessing of the Priest which was sung in the temple of Jerusalem before the captiv- ity, and is still in use in the Jewish synagogues In Spain and Portugal.
 Home, Sweet Home'-the song of homeless Amertcan-once moved Rob- ert Louis Stevenson to an outburst of passionate protest. But it was the music rather than the words that reused his indignation. You will find the passage in Across the Plains: have no idea whether musically this air Is to be considered good or bad; but 1t belongs to that class of art which may best be described as bru- tai assault upon the feelings. Pathos must be relieved by dignity of treat ment declares an English writer. Et you wallow naked in the pathetic, like the author of Home, Sweet Home.' you make your hearers weep in an un- manly fashion, and even yet while they are moved they despse them selves and hate the occasion of their weakness.

Made Will Before Killing.

Mountain Home, Feb. A. A woman's intuition must have told Mrs. Gill Siler, who was kill ed near here last Friday, that she would never leave the dis puted land alive. It developed today that she left her barricade in the henhouse long enough to make her will. About mid- night, according to Will Creel, a neighbor, she came to his house and made her will, leav- ing all her property to her little girl. She left early in the morn- ing and went back to the Siler place.
 Attorneys for the defendants examined the Siler house today, looking for bullet holes where, 1t had been said she shot into the house. They say they found such holes.
 The inquest will last through tomorrow, closing likely late in the afternoon. From the fact that Gill Siler and Jenk Phillips were released it is evident that only Will Siler and his father will be held for the crime.
 The inquest continues to hold an intense interest in this coun- ty. The courtroom was guarded today closer than ever, no one being allowed to enter except the sheriff, the jury, the witness es, the justice of the peace and the states attorney.
 Gill Siler, husband of the dead woman and Jenks Phillips, who have been held under guard, were released today. No evil dence leaked out of the court- room. All the witnesses and the jurors had been cautioned about talking. The lawyer for the de- fense made a strenuous effort to be admitted, but was refused.

-ono.Lixed Mines and Profits.

Are long-lived mines more profitable than short-lived ones? The average investor would consider this foolish question, assuming naturally that the longer mine lasts the greater the ac- cumulated profits.
 Just about the contrary is the case. The figures supplied by the mines de partment of Johannesburg, where the regularity of deposits on the Rand makes it possible to guage the lives of mines with accuracy, should convince the skeptic that owing to. compound ir- terest long life does not add to the value of mine to the extent common ly assumed.-Engineering and Mining Journal.

Honor Man Struck by Lightning.
 To be struck by lightning is still . most lucky thing for the Greek peas ant-if he Is not killed. Such . man. says J. c. Lawson, may indulge . taste for idleness for the rest of his Nfe-his neighbors will support him and enjoy at the same time the rep utation of being something more than human" This Is an inheritance from ancient days. Artemidorus, an au- thority on occult matters wbo flourish ed in the time of Marcus Aurelius, commented on the fact that while Q place was struck by lightning had an altar erected upon it. and was thence forth both honored and avoided. mo one who has been struck by light ming is excluded from citizenship; in- deed, such a one is honored even as a god" The election of Quintus Ju. Illus Eburnus to the consulship in 116 B. c. is attributed to his having been favored thus by the gods.

ITS EFFECT ON THE HEART.

"In what way is the heart affected from kidney trouble?''
 "In all cases the heart is disturbed though in many instances the palpita. ton does not become alarming until the disease has advanced to serious point A severe heart throbbing and nervous trembling is noticeable, especially after a little bodily exercise; the victim ire. quently imagines he has heart disease.'
 HOW TO CURE IT.
 'What is the proper course of treat ment for kidney disease?"
 "First, to get rid of uric acid and other poisons in the system. This can be done by stimulating the bladder and bowels so that they will act more freely. The suffering kidneys must be strengthened, the liver and stomach toned up and the digestion improved"
 Prickly Ash Bitters IS remedy that answers these requirements completely. It is not only system tonic and regu' lator, but its healing and restorative in Auence will build up the weakened kid neys and urge them to better perform ance of their duties. It gives strength and tone to the liver, stomach and hea1 and promotes harmony of action through out the body.

 KIDNEY TROUBLE.
4 Seemingly Common Disease which Becomes Fatal through Neglect and which May Be Readily Cured by Prompt At- tention.

More thav two-thirds of the annual death rate, rnyslcians claim, is directly traceable to kidney disorders.
 Interested by this remarkable asser. ton and desiring to acquire better un. derstanding of the origin of the disease, prominent physician was recently in terviewed as to the symptoms of suc.' troubles.
 "To what do you attribute the great destructiveness of kidney disease?" was asked.
 "The hold which the disease gains in the body before the victim becomes aware of his true condition, and the rapidity with which it eats its way into the vital organs"
 "Would not the proverbial ounce oi prevention check the progress of ths disease?"
 "There is no doubt of it. The trouble is that victims of this disease mistake the symptoms for some tr;hing ailment in the stomach or bowels; therefore they do nothing to arrest the course of the disease until it is we'll advanced.
 What is the origin of kidney trouble?
 "Almost invariably bad digestion, fol lowed by torpid liver and constipated habit"
 What are the sy1ptoms?"
 Headache, dizzy spells, sluggish brain, restless nights, pale or sallow skin, bad breath, lack of appetite, heart burn, sour belching, backache or tenden ness over the kidneys, nervous weak ness, dark rings around the eyes, tired feeling, too much or too little urine, and sediment ill urine"
