NEW YORK, Aug. 6.-Today's fall
OF Ivangorod is only the military
complement OF yesterdays evacua-
tion of Warsaw. The two victories
themselves are but part OF the
greater campaign which has for Its
objective the obliteration OF the
Russian field forces.
Although the capture Of the Wis
tula line Is not an end In itself, II
is by far the greatest success Of
the war. and must be named with
the supreme military achievements
OF all history. The immensity Of
the accomplishment Is due to the
fact that the miracle has been
worked with only part OF the Teu-
tonic power. Germany ia holding
England and France In check and
Austria Is presenting an impreg-
nable front TO Italy. Yet, both pow.
ers have enough excess strength to
capture the principal military
strongholds OF the Slavs. This Is
what makes the Germanic victory
rank almost with legendary com.
bats OF Titans.
London's belief that the Germans
now will concentrate in the west for
a new drive toward Calais. will
probably prove to be unfounded.
The all controlling purpose of pres
ent Teutonic strategy Is to force
Russia out OF the war. II would be
more short-sighted for Berlin and
Vienna to abandon the eastern Of
fensive now than il would have been

ANCIENT DEVOTION PRAcTIcED.
Way of the Cross, Begun in Jerusalem
in 1912, Followed in Good Friday Ser
vicec at St. Patriek's church--Mass
of the Pre-Sanetified Offered.

A congregation of large proportions
assisted at the lengthy and solemn
mass Of the Pre- anctif1ed, offered at
st. sPatrfck's church ait 8 O'Clock on
Friday by Rev. My1es P. Galvon, Rev.
J. H. Broderick and Rev. Thomas A.
Grumbly,e assisting In the services.
The veStments, and altar hangings
were of black and the organ and
choir were mute, except that the
Parge Lingua was sung unaccom-
panied, as the sacretd Host, consecrat-
ed on Maundy Thursday, was being
borne from. the tabernacle of the
Blessed Virgins altar to the main
altar during the brief but solemn
professional.
Following the mass, the members of
the congregation moved four or five
abreast up the center asile to the sane
tuary railing. where each knelt for
the veneration Of the cross. After
#reyerently kissing the, crucifix as pre-
scented by one of the three priests, as
an expression Of SORROW alike for the
passion OF the Saviour and contrition
for sin, as well as veneration for the
cross as the symbol of salvation, the
people returned down the side aisles,
leaving the church.
The offering during the service was
for the missions In the Holy Land.
AT O'Clock Good Friday afternoon
there was the Way or Stations of the
Cross. This perpetuates an ancient
devotion which, had its rise in Je-

DISAPPEARED CHRISTMAS DAY,
FOUND IN NIANTIC RIVER.
Body Found Wednesday Was That of
David J. Dee, Jr., of Westbrook.

Westbrook, Conn, April 2.-The
body found in the Mantle river near
Saunders Point Wednesday, was iden-
titled as that of David Judson Dee,
Jr., 22 years old, of this town. Identi-
fcation was made by the young mans
father, who recognized his son by the
clothing, the features, owing to the
long time. the body had been in the
water, being unrecognizable. The
body will be brought to Westbrook for
interment
The young man, who was slightly
mentally unbalanced, disappeared from
his home last Christmas day as the
family was about to sit down to din
ner. After waiting for a time for him
to reappear search was begun and the
surrounding country was covered for
miles without trace Of him being Sc
CURED. 1t had been planned to take
him to tho Norwich State hospital on
the following day and it is thought
that the young man must have learned
of the plan It was learned that on
Christmas afternoon he was seen to
leave a trolley car near Pine Grove
and it is believed he attempted to
cross the stream on the ice, which was
rather thin at that time, and broke
through.

those sacred spots which were sane
titled by the sufferings of the Divine
Saviour. From the Holy City this de-
vout exercise was introduced into
Europe. When, in 1912, the Francis
can Fathers established their house in
Jerusalem, and undertook the custody
Of the sacred places Of the Holy Land,
they began to spread throughout the
Catholic world the devotion of the Way
of the Cross.
The method Of practicing this de-
Votion. composed by ST. Alphonsus
Liguori, in 1887, is still followed. The
thirteen stations, or places for pray
er and devotion, commemorate the diff
ferent steps in the Saviour's journey,
from His condemnation to death. by
PLATE TO the placing Of His body in
the sepulchre. At each station the
versfcle is I'VE adore Thee, o Christ
and we bless Thee" and the response
is, Because by holy Thy cross Thou
hast redeemed the world
The thirteen stations in st. Pat
ricks church are the choicest works
of art from Munich and picture with
the most touching realism the various
steps in Christ's journey from Pilates
court to Calvary.
The devotion of the Way Of the
Cross is as impressive as it is an
cient and hundreds Of devout parish
toner's participated in the solemn ex-
ercises and prayers, as led by the
priests on Good Friday afternoon.
