Bar Harbor, Maine. July lS.--The
present prospects of peace In Europe
arc NOT known definitely by anyone.
and cannot be conjectured. was the
substance OF Miss Jane Adams con-
illusions. after an address of just
thirtv-eight minutes In the Clark Me-
mortal Methodist Episcopal Church.
this morning.
Miss Adams said: "of Course. no
one knows what the prospects of
peace In Europe are: it may come an
suddenly az came the war. 1t Is inn
possible to adequately state the unity
of the nations now at war. The unity
OF each people does not break, APP
parently, as the war goes on, German
women, English women. all have q
sense of high identity with their
country"
Speaking of the women's peace con-
ference at The Hague. Miss Adams
eaid:
ut is always 6ifficnit for a woman

Outside Power Must Act.
I'm each country at war there are
two parties. the military and the civil
party. One party hopes for an end OF
the war through negotiations the
other by brilliant military move
ment. Ii military peace In secured.
the military power may be more firm

AS TO the method of settlement
am sure that there are two parties.
one of which would be glad TO have
negotiations begin. but these men feel
that any effort towards starting neso-
tiatlons on the part of their country
would appear az IL the nation was
weakening But II some outside power.
some entirely neutral people. could
make negotiations possible. then the
warning nations could take them up,
There are no prospects OF peace
in Europe for long time unless some

Mrs. &. W. Hevener

Mrs. G. w. Hevener, whose sud-
den death on Thursday morning
last was briefly told in last weeks
Recorder, was widely-known res
ident of the county, and her death
came as a surprise and shock to a
host of friends and acquaintance.
On the previous day she was in
her usual health, the attack +
heart failure coming on near Md
night, and she passed away before
a physician could reach the home.
Mrs. Hevener's maiden name
was Somers, her brother, w. M.
Somers, being Sheriff of Highland
many years ago. Her be me- at
Hightown has long been one of the
most hosritable in the county, and
no stranger or needy person was
ever turned away.
Mrs. Hevener was a member OF
the Presbyterian church and active
in its work and support. Those
who knew her best speak of her
as charitable and thoughtful toward
the poor, and kind neighbor. She
had reached an age close to four
score, and is survived by her aged
husband and two children--J. w.
Hevener, with whom she made her
home, and Mrs. G. D. Dudley,
whose lives in the same commu-
nifty.
The funeral took place at the
home Saturday at 2 p. m. and was
largely attended. Her paster, Rev
N. A. Parker, conducted the ser.
vice, assisted by Rev. L. L. Low
ance of the Methodist church.
Interment was in the home GEM
etery.
Among the relatives from a dis
lance who attended the funeral
were Mr. and Mrs. W. A. Peterson,
of Parnassus, the latter icing a
grand daughter.
Since putting the above in type,
we learn the following details as to
MIS-. Hevener's history:
She was native of Shenandoah
county, was born not quite 70
years ago. and in earlier life lived
for a time in Dayton, Va. She
and Mt. Hevener were married Sc
years ago.
