HOWELL LANDS JOB
IN MAIL SERVICE

Although it was difficult to secure
bidders op the mail messenger service
from the post office to the depot in
previous times, this year there were
eighteen bidders for the job.
The contract was awarded to Claude
Howell, 412 North Eleventh street. He
will use an automobile in the mail de-
livery, adding another to the growing
list. He will take up his duties March
10. The amount Of his bid Is unknown
as bids are sent sealed to Washington
There was some curiosity at the post
office as to whether the automobile
brought him the job or whether he un-
derbid others.
John L. Craig who will retire March
8 at midnight, will be unable to resume
his duties meanwhile. While working
on his barn he fell and was painfully
injured. He has been confined to his
bed for several days and has a substi-
tute working in his place.

ARRAICNS CHURCHES
FOR PASSIVE WORK
Rev. Lightbourn Compares
Sects to COmfort-Seeking
Acts of Peter.

Churches of today are content to
stand aside and mark time instead OF
taking an aggressive stand for the ad.
vancement of religion.
The Rev. J. S. Lightbourn thus ar
raigned denominations for their pas
sive attitude and compared them to
Peter, who was considering his own
comfort when he should have been
alert and ready for service. The Rev.
Mr.. Lightbourn's address at st. Pauls
Episcopal church yesterday was part
of the evensong service at which the
childrens' choir furnished music.
Christ is the open way" Rev. Con-
rad Huber told members of st. Paul's
Lutheran church at the Lenten service
last night This is the easy way, clear
ly marked so there is no cause to stray
from it. Everyone can obtain the life
and blessings thereby extended to
man."

BERLIN ADMiNTs DEFEAT.

BERLIN, Cby Wireless) March A.
Admitting that the situation in the
capture of Przasnysz was critical for
the German troops, the German gener-
al staff issued an official report today,
stating that the retreat from that city
was orderly and that the Russians
were not able to disturb the retire
ment. The statement says that the
Russian victory is without the slightest
advantage to them, and that the cars
troops have suffered heavily.
The general staff's report follows:
AFTER the capture of strong point
Of support on the outskirts of Przas-
nysz by one of our troops, the Rus
slams attacked our wing from the east,
southeast and south. Our troops while
withdrawing, kept pace with the SUI
perior forces.
"a portion of our corps was fiercely
engaged. A large number of wounded
who were taken to neighboring vii
lagos, were not brought back into our
lines. The Russians were unable to
disturb our orderly retreat.
Russian incredible reports are in
tended to divert attention from their
severe defeat about the Mazuria lakes
region"

KING LOSES HOME
IN MORNING FIRE

The farm home of Joseph L. King
in Center township, about five miles
northwest of Richmond, was complete
ly destroyed by fire this morning at
a loss of $4,000.
The fire originated from a defective
flue and had obtained a good head
way before seen by neighbors, who
rushed to the assistance of the family
and succeeded in saving most of the
furniture and household effects. The
strong northeast wind carried the
flames to the home of Frank Taylor,
not more than 200 feet distant, but a
hastily organized bucket brigade pre-
vented the fire from doing damage
there. The loss of the King home was
only partially covered by insurance.

TROOPS ON SHORE.

LONDON, March 4.-Great Britain
has landed her first troops for the land
attack upon Constantinople. The mill
tary expedition not only relieves
sailors and marines who were previ-
ously put ashore to aid the warships
in their campaign against the Darda-
nelles forts, but provides a mobile
force for the actual land operations
by which the taking of Turkey in Eu-
rope from the Sultan is expected to be
achieved.
The new force comprises French
troops from Morocco, Canadians, Sen
galese, native Egyptian troops in small
numbers and Australians. 1t is pre-
sumed that the major portion of this
force was quickly transferred from
Egypt when the danger Of Turkish
invasion by way OF the Suez Canal
vanished.
