U. S. URGED TO ACT RUSS FRONT PIERCED
GERMANY ASKS NEW EFFORT TO
END STARVATION POLICY.
Secretary of State Lansing Declines
Again to Sound Great Britain
on Subject

Washington, July 19.-In an inter
view here, to which considerable i'm
pOrtance had been attached, Count
Won Bernstorff, the German ambassa-
dor, found Secretary Lansing unre-
sponsive to a suggestion that the Uni
ted States undertake again to ap-
proach Great Britain with view of
effecting an arrangement under the
terms of which the British embargo
on shipments of supplies Of all kinds
to German ports and the German sub
marine warfare on unarmed merchant
ships would be discontinued.
Beyond the suggestion that the
United States again undertake to
bring about a mOdus vivendi that
would bind Great Britain to suspend
what the German government terms
''Englands starvation policy" and bind
Germany to discontinue the sinking of
merchant ships before an opportunity
was given to enable their passengers
and crews to reach places of safety
nothing was said by the German en-
voy, according to the best information
Obtainable. to change the understand
ing of the United States on Germany's
attitude as made known in the latest
note of the Berlin government.
AS matters stand the response of
this government will be based on Ger
manys unwiilingness to concede that
she is bound by the established rule
of international law that a merchant
vessel. no matter what its status,
shall not be sent to the bottom by a
German submarine until after the re-
quirement of visit and search has
been complied with and passengers
and crew have been afforded time to
reach a place of safety.

FRANKS THROAT CUT.
FELLOW PRISONER SLASHES HIM
WITH BUTCHER KNIFE WHILE
HE SLEEPS.
HAS CHANCE FOR RECOVERY
Miscreant's Only Excuse Is That "He
Thought 1t Should Be Done"-GoV.
ernor Harris to Start investigation
of Affair.

Milledgeville, Ca, July 20.-Leo M.
Frank is lying in the Georgia state
prison hospital with a jagged wound
in his throat made by fellow pr1s-
oner armed with a butcher knife. At
tendants say he has fighting chance
for recovery. Physicians have sue
ceeded in stopping the flow of blood
from the wound.
Williaf Green, fellow convict, also
serving life term for murder, slashed
Frank as the latter slept in his bunk
in a dormitory late Saturday night.
An investigation of the attack prob
ably will be conducted by the Georgia
prison commission, the same BODY
that refused to recommend that
Franks death sentence for the murder
of Mary Phagan be committed to life
Imprisonment. Reports from Atlanta
were that Governor Harris intimated
he would start such an investigation
to ascertain if Green acted entirely of
his own volition.
Green said, when taken from soil
questioned, that he planned the attack
alone and that no one knew what he
intended to do. He was not communi-
cative and gave as his only excuse
that 'he thought it should be done"
He said, however, he regretted his
acts.
Frank was quartered at night in a
dormitory with about 100 other pris-
oners and occupied a bunk about 40
feet from one of the two doors to the
large room. Green's bunk was fourth
from his. No prisoner is allowed to
leave his place without permission
from one of the two guards stationed
at the dormitory at night. Shortly
after eleven o'clock Green called out
for permission to get up and it was
granted
He started down the line of hunks
toward the one occupied by Frank.
AS he reached it he quickly grabbed
Frank by the hair and delivered one
blow with the knife he had concealed.
A guard rushed to the bunk and pre-
vented Green from striking again.
Among prisoners who rushed to
Franks aid were two physicians, one
Of whom also was serving life term
for murder. They gave first aid and
treated the wound until DR.. Guy
Compton, the prison physician, was
summoned from his home, half a mile
away. The three men took 25
stitches in Franks neck. DR.. H. ].
Rosenberg, the Frank family physi-
clan, arrived from Atlanta with
nurses. He said that, while the pa
tents condition was precarious, he
had chance for life

Interesting to ArcheoIogists.

An archaeological discovery of con-
siderable interest has just been made
at Stirling castle, Edinburgh, Scot
land. For some time workmen have
been engaged in excavating the up
per square and causewaying it with
whinstone. In the course of the op-
erations they came across certain
well-defined foundations, which so far
as can be ascertained, were not known
to the present generation. The re-
mains are directly in front of the pOr-
ton known as the Chapel Royal
(Which has long been used as an ar
mory), and they take the form of two
lines of stones, each line being about
three feet in width Nothing has been
done to destroy the remains, the po-
sitions of which have been indicated
by the linear arrangement of the sets
above them. Several local archeOlo-
gists express the opinion that the two
lines of stones form part of two
foundations of the original Chapel
Royal, supposed to have been founded
about 1907.

True Prayer.

Prayer, to be real, must be sincere
There is a prayer that is sin to man
(Psa, 6:1S). Such prayer is prayer
that is not honest; that is offered for
things we do not truly desire or will
not faithfully receive; that is used as
a cover of selfishness or Incidence;
that is of the lips only, and not of the
heart The prayer that God will an
swer must be prayer from the heart.
"In all thy prayers" says John Bun
yam, "let thy heart be without words,
rather than thy words without heart"
When we have put our hearts into our
prayers we shall have no trouble in
putting them into our work. AS Cur
nall said, "'Tis harder to get the great
bell up than to ring it when raised.
And so it is with our hearts-harder
work we shall find it to prepare them
for duty than to perform it when they
are got into some order"
