ITALY AND THE WAR"
WAS DR.. WOODS THEME
Church of Covenant Pastor Treats of
Rise of New Power to
-. Greatness.

In sermon last night at the Church
of the Covenant, Rev. DR.. Charles
Wood, the pastor, preached on Italy
and the War" This sermon is one of
the series treating of the moral and
religious aspects of the conflict being
waged in Europe. In part, DR.. Wood
said:
THE capital of Italy. Rome, is at the
same time the most ancient and the
most modern of capitals. The city of
Romulus and Remus, of Caesar and
Cicero, of Peter and Paul, is the city
become once more the Italian capital,
after centuries of foreign and prelati-
cal domination, when Victor Emmanuel
entered in triumph in July, 1872.
LAS Rome is the newest conner among
capitals, so Italy is the latest arrival
among the great powers Only in 1882
was she admitted as an equal to their
councils. Now she finds herself wooed
king, by czar and president. Each and
all of her wooers are Indignantly re-
fusing to take mo- for an answer"
With regard to Austria's attitude
toward Italy, DIR. Wood declared:
Austria openly acknowledged that
she counted on being the residuary
legatee on Italy's final demise. and she
had no hesitation in saying Italy was
an unconscionable time in dying. If a
few well directed efforts on Austria S
part could shorten Italy's suffering
they would be Immediately forthcom-

comforting with government officials

of securing their cooperation for bet

Anybody who was out of doors yes

bird, in fact-were represented in the
feathered assemblages that gathered
in the parks and open spaces in and
about the city; while the budding trees
and shrubbery, the springing grass and
the sap that dripped from every broken
twig on the naples, all declared that
spring is here-at least for visit.
But the sunshine and the balmy tenn
peratures were even more positive ev1-
dence of the fact. Starting with a tenn
perature of % degrees at = O'CLOCK

ed to make a mighty fine spring day,
thank you. Furthermore, there was
sunshine all day. from the time the
sun rose in the morning until it set at
night, the per cent of possible sunshine
being 100, a perfect score.

FOR HEALTH PROTECTION.
Army Authorities Telling Tree
About Fort Washington.

AS a sanitary measure to protect the
health of the soldiers stationed at Fort
Washington, the army authorities are cut
ting down many Of the big trees which
for the past half century or longer have
covered the reservation and which have
added much to its beauty. The trees have
been cut up for fuel. which gives the
army authorities about 500 cords of wood
of various kinds. IT is stated that the
quartermaster at the fort is arranging to
ship a considerable quantity of the wood
to Fort Monroe, and a hundred or more
cords will be brought to the army posts
here
Mosquitoes Of the malaria-causing kind
were said to have been plentiful about
Fort Washington. and the army health
authorities concluded the thick foliage
about the fort was their breeding place,
and this caused the thinning out Of the
trees and bushes.

PLANNING SPRING TRADE.
Vessels Which Have Been Idle Soon
to Resume Business.

Lying in various harbors along the
river are many vessels that bring lum-
ber and wood to this city, which have
been laid up since the latter part of
the past year, and which are kept out
of service until ice-making time is
over Most of these vessels return to
service early in March, and already
their owners have started work on
them in preparation for the opening of
the spring freighting season. Many
figure that if the river is free of ice
in the middle of February it is likely
to remain SO. and as soon as possible
after that date vessels are started out.
The schooner Mary Francis of the
Carter fleet, which has been lying at
this city for several weeks, was placed
in commission recently and has gone
to river point after cord wood for
dealers here. The schooner Earl Bis
coe, another of the Carter boats, that
has been out of service since early in
the fall, will this week go into COM
mission, and the schooners Oscar. Edith
Verral, Mary Ann Shea and other
schooners of the Clarke fleet are either
in service or will be as soon as repairs
to them can be completed.

TRAIN ROBBERY A MYTH.
Express Messenger Admits Story
Made Up. Officials Announce.

a. Y Chamblis. express messenger on

safe was thrown into Aqua creek late
Thursday night. has solved the mys-

Chambliss. II appears that after the
train started Williams discovered that
he did not have his key to the safe
and that the absence of pads. stamps
and writing material that he kept in
the safe made II impossible to transact
properly the company's business
In order to get the paraphernalia, he
stated, the safe was broken open.

CALLS PRESS TYRANNICAL.
Senator Fletcher at All Souls Says
Public Men Fear NeWspapers.

That the newspapers of today are
tyrannical molders of public opinion
and have inspired in public men fear
of the press that is but species of
cowardice, was the declaration of Sena-
tor Duncan U. Fletcher of Florida last

Union at All Souls Unitarian. Church.
Senator Fletcher's address included
a defense of public men from the time
of George Washington to the present
Congress, instances of bitter and unjust
journalistic attacks on even the father
of his country during his lifetime, as
we'll as on many others and general
denunciation of the yellow" press.
The address ended with an exhorta-
tion to take up arms against the ty-
rant press" although the speaker ad-
vocated no specific plan for muzzling
what he said had started as the free
press" but has since become so unre-
strained.

War Everlasting

The daily papers tell about the
war, give all the news-thats
what they're printed for. They're
full of tales. dramatic, stern and
sad. and lists of dead from this
or t'other grad; they tell how
French has wisely moved his
troops, and how the Turks, de-
feated, leave their coops. All
news that's fresh the daily papers
Weld, for it they rake DER every
crimson field. Then come the
weeklies. with their stories raw,
their high-brow writer's thrash
ing ancient straw; the yarns with
which the daily prints are
through are rearranged and
handed us as new And when
the news is stale as last years
beans it's warmed again by
monthly magazines. And now all
authors. in their coy dens, oil
their machines and fill their foun-
tain pens, and write OF war, and
all their coming books will smack
of blood and guns. and army
cooks. Their plots they'll CLEAN
from stories YOU have read; like
Coroners. they'll gloat above their
dead. and every page will speak
OF dying groans. and every chap
ter treat OF dead mems bones.
War has more evils than the SOL
dier knows when he's shot by,
or when he shoots, his foes. The
stay-at-homes must suffer just as
well. and sigh with one who
knew. "Ah. war is hell!'
