LETTERS TO EDITOR
Cnlfure Without a "II"
the Editor of The Age-Herald

To the Editor of The Age-Herad: In todays issue of your paper I mo- tice a communication from reader in Tuscaloosa, and in this letter he attempts to define the culture that starts with a K" used by Dr. Phillips recently at a school closing. The Tuscaloosa writer brand. which burns libraries. destroys churches, sinks Lusitanias and lot of
 other horrible things.
 It is a pity that in this article he did
 not give us an idea what English culture stands for and has accomplished in the
 past when they got a chance to inject a little of their Culture. She tried in this war to give the German a taste of it by starving out the whole nation of them. but the Teuton is little too sharp for them and frustrated them in their diaboli- cal scheme. The world remembers how England stole the South African republics in 1900-1902. The Boers have not forgot ten the English brand of culture dealt out to them the following will show:
 "On December 16 1913, the Boers unveiled
 a monument at Bloemfontein, described as an obelisk of granite bearing at It's ba SC the figure of two Boer women and an
 emaciated. starving, dying child. The in- scription on it as follows:
 This monument has been erected from voluntary contributions of the Boers in
 memory of the 26,663 women and children
 who died during the war of 1902 in the English concentration camps
 If German culture starts with K" '" , ygha does such British culture start with Another example of British Russian cul-
 ture is seen in the following: When the
 Russians captured the undefended town of Memol, in East Prussia, and destroyed it, dragging hundreds of women and chill
 dren in captivity like a band of Indians and staying unarmed civilians, the Lon don post, household paper of King George V commented as follows:
 We are heartily glad that the Rus
 sians burned Memel, and we hope the al- lies will burn a good many more German | towns before this war is' over' | l have come to the conclusion that the
 culture that starts with a "k'' is not so
 bad after all GEORGE J. BEYER. 1 Cullman. lime 10. 1915

LAST APPEAL
 ID SAVE BECKER

New York. June 1o-The last appeal to courts of New York for the life Of Charles Becker sentenced to die the week of July P for the murder of Herman Rosenthal, the gambler. was made today when his counsel forwarded to the court of appeals at Albany brief on a mo- ton for the reargument of the case.
 The court. the brief claims overlooked two facts of capital importance to Beck CT which did not appear in the first trial but were established in the second trial hy the states principal witness. Jack Rose, the informer
 The brief says that inasmuch as Ro- seminal had threatened to expose Becker in a New York newspaper Becker must have known that an attack on Rosenthal at that time would be attributed to his agency.
 The question as it should have been presented to the jury. states the brief. was whether Rose, who hired the gun men, animated by a desire to save his own life, which already was imperled, according to his own testimony. hy Rose : representations to Jack zelig. a gang leader, or if he engaged the gunmen at the instance of Becker to kill Rosenthal. The only purpose of the crime in the lat ! ter contingency, it is argued. would have | been to prevent Rosenthal from doing something which he already had done that is to publish charges against Becker and from attempting something which | he could not accomplish Becker's indlct- ment for bribery and his removal from office.
 | If the question instanced had been sub mitted to the jury there could he littls doubt that the defendant would have been acquitted, the brief contends.
