Nish Second Largest City.

With the exception os Belgrade, Nish
is the largest city in Serbia. Soon after
the outbreak Of the war the capital was
tTaheferred from Belgrade to Nish. There
the government remained until the city
was threatened by the invaders. In the
last month various towns have been men
toned as the temporary seat of the gov
eriment.
Nish is situated on the main railroad
line Of Serbia running from Belgrade to
Sasoniki. There are no recent statistics
OF its population. which twenty years ago

More than half of Serbia is now in
possession Of the invaders. who also
have taken the greater part of the
country's railroad system. A new

tween Austro-German and Bulgarian
forces. Berlin reported today, and this

MR.. DANIELS PAPER
Raleigh News and Observer
Building Is Completely De-
stroyed by Fire.

RALEIGH, n. c., November 6.-For
the second time since Josephus Dan
iels became Secretary of the Navy in
the Wilson cabinet, the plant of his
newspaper the News and Observer, was
destroyed early today in fire which
swept half block, carrying property
loss estimated at a quarter of million
dollars. The printing house of E. M.
Uzzell & Co., state printers, Is also
a total loss. In the Uzzell plant
was warehouse containing many
copies of supreme court reports and
North Carolina laws, the property OF
the state of North Carolina. According
to a statement OF the secretary Of
state all of the state papers lost can
be duplicated.
The loss to the state in papers. paper
stock and printing supplies Is estimated

W. H. Bagley. business u,anager of the
News and Observer, was severely cut
about the left arm and side by being
caught in a door of the editorial rooms
while attempting to leave the building

siou, which firemen attribute to gas,
seat flames into the adjoining build
ings. -'.-.-
The editorial and mechanical forces of
the News and Observer had left only a
short time before the fire was discov-
cred. Some Of the men had just reached
their homes. Practically nothing was

Czzell plants. The News and Observer
saved only copies of the mailing list
Two firemen were injured slightly and
removed to a hospital.
State Records Destroyed. .
In the plant Of Uzzell &, Co were
many state records from various de-
partments, and some of the; records of
the state supreme court. No estimate

is available. The Uzzell company car
ried large contracts for state printing
and one floor of the building vas used
as . storage room for some state papers.
D Edward E. Britton, editor of the News
and Observer, stated that the loss Of

exceed 100000, and that it was prob
ably half covered by insurance.
The previous fire nearly three years ago

K|TCHENERUKE[Y
TO RESIGN, CLAIM
British War Minister Has Gone
to Near East, Says
London Post.
STAY TO BE PROLONGED.
NEWSPAPER CHARGES
Categorically Denied That High Of
fetal Already Has Surrendered
Reins to King.

LONDON, November 6-The Post
says that Earl Kitchener, secretary
for war, has been intrusted with an
important mission to the near east
and has already departed from Lon
don.
1T is generally believed says the
Post, that Earl kitchener's business

Lord Ha1dane may be brought back to

founded
Resignation Denied.
Repetition of the report that Earl
Kitchener had placed his resignation as
secretary of state for war in the hands
of the king has brought forth an author
lied categorical statement to the contrary
as follows:
mot only is it untrue that Earl
Kitchener has resigned, but it is equally
Untrue that his 1ordship ever rendered
his resignation to the king"
Kitchener Sees King.
According to the Daily Graphic, Earl
Kitchener saw the king Thursday night,
as was announced yesterday, at the kings
own request.
The Graphic, urging the government
not to delay disclosure of the actual facts,
suggests that Lord Derby, who is now in
charge of British recruiting, would make
an excellent war minister
The Times today declares that a rumor
that Field Marshal Earl Kitchener might
take command in France may be dis
missed as entirely without foundation.

/ What mans mouth does not water
as memory carries him back to the
special days when mother set the
peach preserves on the tablet And
of all the fruit buffers ever made none
holds higher place than good peach
butter.
In every language the peach is a
synonym of vivacity and beauty. As
the sparkling eyed girl, her cheeks
and lips aflame with natures painting
and every movement the poetry of mo-
ton, goes down the street, passersby
turn their heads to look and invoun-
tarily exclaim, "Isn't she a peach? ?"
So let blessings rest on the memory
of the individual, whether he was
MongoIian, Aryan, or Persian, Greek,
Jew or Gentle who first produced by
intelligent cultivation, the peach. Who
ever he was, he conferred lasting
benefit on mankind. His name has
been lost to history and it is quite
possible that even when he was alive
he wasn't known so miles from home,
but as a matter of fact he has been
of vastly greater benefit to succeed
ing generations of men than all the
warriors and kings whose names are
inscribed on the worlds scroll of
fame.
His discovery carried with it no har-
vest of death, no shedding of the blood
of the innocent, no groans of wounded
and dying, no tears of widows and or
phans, no aftermath of sorrow. His
future harvest was first a wilderness
of bloom, white and pink in the or
chard lands that fill the air with their
fragrance in the spring time, and lat
er on the myriad peaches bending the
limbs with their weight, covered with
down as soft as elder, painted by the
Inrivalled artist, Nature, and growing
sweet and ripe in the sunlight of sum-
ner and early autumn.

Blessings on Thee, Emmett
Peach

t is something of relief to turn
from the nerve racking subject of
war to the peaceful contemplation
of the peach, which is just now
the center of interest in the Emmett
| country, and which is being sent to
the four corners of this bully coun-
try to tickle the palate of mankind, for
of all the fruits none seems to more
fittingly typify peace and good will
than the peach.
Darwin and other students of the
origin of species, assert that the peach
is not found as wild tree, but has
always been the result of cultivation.
For this delicious fruit we probably
are indebted to the Chinese. Confu-
cius, the great Chinese philosopher,
who lived and wrote his philosophy
five centuries before the birth of
Christ, mentions the peach as one of
the choice fruits of China. 1t is sup
posed that the peach was introduced
into Persia by Chinese merchants and
probably carried from Persia into
southern Europe by the Greeks.
The peach is alike the luxury of the |
rich and of the poor. The poor man
with a little plot of ground can raise
a few peach trees and when the red |
checked fruit is ripe and mellow, for
once he can set on his table as fine
a dessert as graces the table of the
king. 1t is the one fruit that can
hardly be ruined for eating purposes.
When ripe and sweet it is better eaten
as nature prepares it than when sub
jected to the culinary art of the high
priced chef, but when sliced and min
gled with rich cream and sugar it is
still the synonym of luxury that rivals
the tabled nectar of the gods. Baked
into pie it holds its own with the
most popular pastry and when picked
1y the skillful housewife it has no
'ival in its line. II

Bird Law to be Enforced.

With the approach Of the open sea
son for shoting wild fowl, the United
States department of agriculture is
warning sportsmen that the federal
regulation as amended October /,
1914, will be strictly enforced. Some
misunderstanding has arisen from
the fact that the various state laws
do not always conform to the federal
regulations. This is regarded as m
fortunate but in such cases the de-
partment must insist upon the OBJ
servance of the federal regulations.
The department will consider any
recommendations submitted in good
faith for amendment of the regula-
tions, but will hold no public hearings
thereon, nor will it amend the regula-
tions prior to October Is, 1915. 1t is
the purpose of the department to con-
form the regulations to the wishes of
the majority of sportsmens so far as
it can be done and at the same time
give wild fowls the necessary protec-
tions. Federal regulations divide the
United States into two zones. Zone
No. the breeding zone, includes the
states of Oregon, Idaho, Colorado, Ne
oraska, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio,
Pennsylvania and New Jersey, and all
states north of them. Zone No. , the
vintering zone includes all states
south of those named.

BREAD MAKING CON-
TEST AT FAIR
Prizes Offered for Best Loaf of
Bread Baked by
Daughter.

Did it ever occur to you that We
never would have heard anything
about the so-called Servant problem
had we started years ago to study anc
dignity the kitchen work?
When the daughter has taken part
upon a musical program and finished
rendering a particularly difficult and
pleasing number, the applause which
goes up to her across the footlights
is a gracious tribute which causes her
to feel that her many hours of patient
study and practice has brought re-
ward worth while. 1t is appreciated;
the expression is sincere and earnest.
There is no mistaking this encourag-
ing approval from her teachers, par
,ents and neighbors. The congratula-
-tions and compliments bring flush OF
pride and gratifying pleasure. That
is plainly reflected in the flushed, rosy
cheek and sparkling eye. 1t is encour-
agement to try again. She will sur
pass the triumph of her own record
rather than the record of others.
The girl who learns to bake good
bread and is encouraged and learns
to love her work in the kitchen is
serving humanity in a more helpful
way than can the most accomplished
musician. She is building health,
wealth and happiness for herself, her
family and her friends today, tomor-
row and for many years to come.
The Gem County Festival manage
ment recognize the value that may
grow out of proper encouragement
for the girl and her older sister and
her mother, who are our bread bakers
cf today, tomorrow and many days to
come
Prizes are offered for the best loaf
of bread. A liberal showing is desired
and expe cted. Merely the showing of
good bread is not enough. The exhib-
itors who have baked the bread are
wanted at the festival. We want
them to feel that to be able to win
such an award is a distinction worth
while. They are capable of rendering
real service to humanity. To those
who try and yet fail to win prize
have already won an important prize.
The prizes and the occasion have rem
dered the greatest aid through stim-
ulated interest.
Let us encourage and dignity bread
baking and we have then largely
solved our so-called Servant prob
em."

Fire in PaYette.

A fire, which started shortly after
midnight on Sunday in the central
block of Payette, caused a loss of
$4,000 to the stock of the Keith &
Son clothing store. Two two story
frame buildings occupied by Tefft's
restaurant and William Holt's barber
shop were destroyed. The upper part
cf the Creighton building, in which the
Keith store was located, was badly
damaged, the roof collapsing.
