whether you fellows would like me
to tell you about some OF the i'm

"Thatd he fine" said Jimmy,

Russian and Polish cities. including
Warsaw. Since summer Bulgaria has
Joined Germany and the soldiers of
these two countries have invaded and
captured Serbia and have practically
opened a way to COnstantinople so
that they can join the Turkish forces
in that ancient city. Italy, which join
ed the British Allies early in the sum-
mer. at first made rapid progress
against Austria, but lately that cam
paign seems to have come to a halt.
Although both sides have tried to win
Greece that little country has de-
cided to remain neutral. The Turks
still hold COnstantinople against the
British and French fleets, and the
British navy continues the successful
blockade against Germany in the
North Sea.
"The war is costing about S15,OOO,-
600 a day, and the number of men
who have been killed and injured runs
into the millions-probably more than
5000. 600. Germany alone reports the
loss of more than 1000 600 since the
beginning of the fighting.
"Since last New Years Day the
whole world has learned of the suffer
ing of the Polish people and great
quantities of food and other needed
supplies have been sent from America
to Poland
"The war has caused the United
States a lot of trouble this year, hasn't
it?' asked Joe.
"Indeed it has" said Uncle Harry.
Several American ships, and many
British ships carrying American citi-
zens. have been sunk by submarines,
and Presid ent Wilson and Secretary
of State Lansing have been about the
two busiest men in the United States,
trying to straighten out these difficult
ties. After the big Steamship Lusi-
tania was sunk i'm May. causing the
death of more than 1000 people, in.
cluding many Americans, President
Wilson took very firm stand and
secured from Germany a promise that
more care would be taken in attack
ing ships on which Americans might
be travelling.
1T would have been very easy fol
President Wilson to have caused the
United States to get into the war but
he knew that Germany had no quar-
rel with the American people and

New News Of Yesterday
A Boys Request of a
Popular Statesman
BJ Holland

Beverly Tucker. OF Virginia. was a
personality in Washington life both
before the war and in later years when
he soiourned there during a session of
Congress. having a temporary home
in a family hotel on Fourteenth
street within convenient reach Of the
public Offices.
He was everybody's friend and did
not need to claim kinship which he
had with the distinguished member Of
Congress, Randolph Tucker, in order
to secure admission to places where it
was desirable to go. He was a man Of
infinite humor, and his large phy-
sique, the quaint and often comical ex-
preston Of his face as he narrated
anecdotes. almost all OF them asso-
ciated with men who were OF proml-
nence in his day. added TO the charm
he was able to impart to these anec-
dotes.
II is my recollection that he told
me that one time he lived abroad in
some official capacity. At all events
he seemed to have familiar acquaint-
ance with many of the distinguished
men OF Europe. When he was q mere
lad he was a pet OF the statesmen and
brilliant politicians who were in
Washington during sessions OF Con-
gress. was once told that when ne
was little boy he became an especial
pet OF Stephen A. Douglas. This was
probably in part due to the fact that
his people were ardent admirers Of
Douglas. at least until Douglas car
ried on his debate with Abraham Lin
coin in Illinois. in 1858.
Beverly used to be taken by one or
another of his family when he was a
little boy to see Douglas, even then
known as "The Little Giant" The in
stant the lad appeared in any place
where Douglas was present. the dis
ltinguished Democrat broke away from
anything which was occupying him at
the moment and began to hold delight
ful, childlike conversation with the lit
tie boy Very often Douglas would
take the lad upon his lap and would
entertain the child with fascinating
stories. Upon one occasion. at a time
when the belief prevailed in Democra.
tic circles that Douglas would in all
probability be nominated by his party
for the presidency, the little boy went
with members OF his family TO the
Douglas house.
"The Little GiaIS" greeted him
warmly and took him upon his knee
After some familiar conversation
Douglas said: boy. after beoom'
president what do you want me to dc
for you?"
The boy did not hesitate, but replied
quickly: when you become presiden
/ want you to take me in your lap jus
as you are doing now. put your arm
around my neck. tell me stories an
= call me Bev."
Il shall remember that Bev. II
. become president one OF the frs
b things I shall do will be to take 20
e. on my lap, call you Bev and tell 70
r a story" laughed Mr.. Douglas.

and President Wilson outlined his
plans for new laws which he believes
should be passed, including the i'm
provement and enlargement of our
army and navy.
The politicians are planning for
the conventions which will nominate
candidates for President. to be voted
on next November. These conventions
will be held in June. The Republicans
will meet in Chicago and the Demo
Gratis in St. Louis. President Wilson
will probably be the Democratic can
didate for reelection, but nobody
seems to know who will be the Re-
publican candidate.
'It's been a great, and important
year boys. and 1916 will be even
greater. There will be lots of in
teresting things happening and you
can count on me telling you all about
them.
Happy New Year. Uncle Harry.

started up the street.

them" he answered.
