TAKES PARKER
To new PULPIT
First Methodist Board Re-
leases Pastor, Filling Pull
pit With Rev. Harry Har-
man of Evanston.
GETS SALARY RAISE

The pulpit of the First Methodist
church was vacated and filled again
last night.
Rev. B. Earl Parker, pastor for two
years, resigned to accept the call to
the First Methodist church at Marion.
Rev. Harry Hartman of Evanston, ILL.,,
was called from the Illinois conference
to take the place and will accept.
At Marion the Rev. Mr.. Parker will
receive a salary representing an ad-
vance of $400 over his salary here.
The First Methodist church of Marion,
has over 1000 members, and is plan
ming to build a new and expensive
building.
The members of the board of the
local church received the announce
ment unexpectedly, as 1t was thought
the Rev. Mr.. Parker would remain
here until the close of the conference
year, April 1. They however agreed
to release him at once with very ex-
,, preston of good will. Rev. Parker
will preach his farewell sermon in
Richmond next Sunday, and will take
charge of the Marion church Oct. Is,
moving next week.
Rev. Tarry Harman OF Evanston,
ILL.,, has been called by the board of
the First Methodist church, and will
probably accept the call, coming to
Richmond at once.
Rev. B. Earl Parker came to Rich
mond from Hartford City, two years
ago last April. During his service
here the First Methodist church has
been greatly strengthened. In this
time over two hundred new members
have been received, a strong Sunday
school has been developed, and the
church has also been improved. The
interior decorations have been re-
newed recently.

LONDON PEssIMISTIc.
Military Critics See FutiIity Of Crush.
ing kaiser's Army.

LONDON, Oct. 6-The battle Of the
Aisne is a draw. This was frankly ad-
mitted at the war office today. The
battle ended in a deadlock in which
neither side was able to gain any ma
terial advantage.
Out of the battle. however, has de-
veloped the campaign of Seven Riv-
ers that bids fair to rival that of the
Duke of Wellington in 1901 and that
of General Grant in 1864-65.
The great German army In France
cannot be crushed. Even the most
optimistic of the military men In Lon
don are now convinced that the Ka1s-
er's war machine cannot even be
routed. On account of its immense
strength, the campaign of the allies
must resolve itself into a steady ex-
ertion of pressure against all sides
of the German army. pushing 1t back
where possible, advancing inch BY
inch.

BERLIN, Oct 6-(By wireless via
Sayville, N. Y.)-This official state
ment was issued here today:
''The situation of the German and
Austrian armies everywhere is most
hopeful.
Great surprise is expressed at the
activity of German cruisers stationed
abroad. Though it was generally ex-
victim to British warships within a
Germans are now -astonished to learn
press of the damage they are doing to
the enemy's marine.
"The Goeben, Breslau, Emden,
Karlsruhe and Leipsig are the vessels
whose successes have caused the live.
liest satisfaction in Germany. In ad.
dition the Scharnhorst and Gneiseau,
stationed in the Pacific, are reported
being near Tahiti, having destroyed
the French gunboat Zelee."
An order of the day written by Gen.
eral Won Hoehen and just published
gives details of the capture of Fort
Camp De Romans on the Meuse. II
says the fort was taken after hard
fighting. Five French officers and
more than 500 men were made prison
ers. The remainder perished in the
ruins of the fort.
An official statement dealing with
operations in the eastern theatre OF
war asserts that the Russians were
completely defeated near Suwalki and
Augustowo on October l and 2, the
Germans taking 5000 prisoners and
capturing 18 cannon and many ma.
chine guns.
An official statement issued at mid.
night says that the German armies In
France are making a steady advance
on both wings of the battle line, con-
tinuously forcing the allies back and
extending the lines of intrenchments.
1t also says the inner works of Ant
werp are being bombarded and the
lines of investment are being drawn
closer about that city.

JAPS VIOLATE
j. s. AGREEMENT

WASHINGTON, Oct 6.-The seiz-
ure of the German base in the Mar
shall islands by the Japanese caused
considerable anxiety among govern
ment officials here today. During the
time elapsing between the sending OF
the Japanese ultiGlatum to Germany,
and the actual declaration of war be-
tween these two countries, Japan gave
promise to the United States that
she would confine her operations to
the China Sea.
Yesterday Japan seized the German
base in the Marshall islands, thus vio-
lating her previous promises to this
government. Should the Japanese in
sist on holding the islands after the
war is over, the ensuing complications
would be very embarrassing to the
United States which would oppose any
plan giving Japan a coaling station
in the Pacific midway between Yoko-
homa and Hawaii
The state department almost GER
tainly will file protest with the
Japanese government against the vio-
lation of her promises.

1t is believed the other city pre-
cincts will show about the same ratio
of shrinkage.
II think the big registration in the
country precincts is due for the most
part to the great interest taken by the
voters in the election of township Off
GERS, for in the country as keen an in
terest is taken in the selection OF
township officers as is taken in the
election of city officers In Richmond
said Mr.. Bowman.
In Session Today.
Up to noon today only one precinct
board, that in the twenty-seventh,
Fifth ward, had announced an extra
registration session for today. This
action was taken following the filing
of the required petition. Many rail-
road employees reside in that precinct
and it is understood that about 135 of
the AIS voters could not register yes
terday. The largest vote in the city
Is cast in this precinct normally.
Voters in the city were late in regis
tering yesterday, but they were un.
usually prompt in the precincts out
side of Richmond At O'Clock yes
terday afternoon 1t was estimated that
only so or 60 per cent. of the normal
vote in Richmond had been registered
began to arrive at their precinct sta
tions and from that time until
O'Clock when the registration ended
the registration officials were kept
busy. Automobiles driven by Progress
sive and Democratic workers dashed
madly about town herding in forgetful
indifferent or ailing voters to their
various places of registration.
The Republicans had no organiza-
tion to get out their vote and as a
result the Democrats and Progressives
are asserting that what deficit there
is in the vote will be felt most keenly
by the G. O. P.
Workers Busy.
The Progressives and Democrats
both had excellent organizations for
getting out the vote and their workers
labored like beavers from early until
late.
1--WE are delighted with the result
of the registration" said Progressive
Chairman Price. 'Practically all men
listed as Progressives on our poll
books were registered"
II think that ninety per cent Of the
Democratic vote was registered yes
Iterday," said Frank Wilson, acting
Democratic chairman. "Our organiza.
tion yesterday did just as effective
work as the Progressives.

GERMANS GO NORTH
British Military Critics Agree
Allies Unable to Crush Kai-
ser's Army on French
Soil.
BY FRANKLIN p. MERRICk
Representing the international News

Service.
PARIS, Oct. 6-The battle front on
the right flank of the German army.
where the allied British and French
troops are pounding away with un-
ceasing attacks, is steadily becoming
greater, according to an official state
ment issued at p. NJ. today. 1t is ex-
tending toward the north and north
west.
Large masses of German cavalry
have been reported in the environs Of
Lille" says the statement. Lille lies
only ten miles from the Belgian bord-
er. The appearance of the big cavalry
forces there indicates that the Ger
mans, too, are engaged in a counter
thanking movement by which they
hope to turn back the allies attack.
The official statement says that the
German cavalry are preceding forces
that are making q movement through
that region at the north of the Turco-
ing-Armentieres line.
Make Slight Progress.
The British and French in co-opera-
ton have made slight progress on the
right bank of the Aisne north of Sois-
sons, the statement adds. 1t is at
| this point that the allies are trying to
| drive wedge between the German
right flank and center.
There is no indication from today's
statement that the allies are getting
any nearer to the German hne of COM
munication. 1t is apparent rather that
the zone Of action is being pressed
farther west and for the time being,
at least, the Germans have averted the
danger of being cut off from supplies.
Armentiers is about 25 miles west
of Lille and about 35 miles southeast
of Dunkirk, the port where part of the
original British expeditionary force
was landed. If the Germans extend
| their thanking lines to the coast, the
allies will have to drive their way
through in order to reach Belgium.
The vigorous offensive movement
of the German right flank under Cen
eral Alexander Won Kluck. has COM
PEELED the allies to send reinforce.

That Apollo uuawares"
Slew the lovely Hyacinthus
Youth and beauty wondrous rare"
And because of this great sorrow
He has made the flowers grow
And upon each trembling petal
Told the story of his woe,
All day long I've watched the symbol
OF the Earth-love's hopeless pain
While the Easter tide gives promise
OF love that rose again.
All day long there's been but little
Sunshine in the dull content
That the heart of Nature wakens
In her teachings wisely sent,
But the promise of fulfillment
At this blessed Easter tide
Sways my soul as something precious
(Boundless freedom typihed).
And the Hyacinth, fair emblem
OF the earth joys that must go
In your legendary beauty
You have taught my soul to grow.

has charge of the publicity department
of the Exchange, was in the city the
first of the week visiting officers Of the
local affiliated shipping agency, the
Fruit Growers Exchange, and looking
over the valley. he was accompanied
by Mrs. Elilnwood. When discussing
the suggestion of E. N. Benson. who is
urging a large gift of local apples to
the Belgian people, Mr.. Ellinwood
stated that the growers of Ontario
were drying large quantities of apples
to be given to British and Belgian SOL
diers.
"The Canadian railways and the ship
lines have agree to transport the prod
uct free of charge" he said. Apple
marketing conditions are very much
worse in the east than here, and in
Canada they are simply shot to pieces.
solid trainload of 20 cars of fruit
were shipped from Nova Scotia to
Winnipeg, the furthest west that any
barrel apples have ever been sent.
They were offered at ridiculously low
prices. This, of course, spoiled mar
ket that was usually good for box ap-
pies.
THE Ontario growers simply had no
outlet for their fruit. The dried apples
markets of Germany were cut off. The
vinegar factories we're full up, and the
plan of sending the evaporated fruit
to the fighting men and stricken fami-
lies of Europe was evolved"
