MANNING,S S. G., WEDNESDAY. JANUARY l3 1915
CITY OF PARIS DUG In
HUGE CIRCLE OF ENTRENCH.
AENTs PROTECT CAPITAL.
Army of Excavators: Have Been at
Work Since First of September
When Germans Threatened Siege.

The army OF eXcaVators that earl.
in September began to. dig Paris il
when a German siege was threatened
| has completed it's work.
The General Confederation o.
Workers alone sent five thousand vol
unteers, who provided their OWL
working tools and. were merely re
compensed by a daily ration of food
Thousands of Belgion refugees have
also assisted in the work.
.Jaris now lies in the centre of al
intrenched camp, the diameter ot
which>is about sixty miles and whose
circumference is nearly two hundred
miles. This is surrounded by row
after row3of trenches thoroughly GOV.
cred in with logs and turf through
which loopholes have been left fol
rife fire. :
ALI of them communicate with each
other and contain transverse banks
Of earth to prevent them being en-
filaded by infantry or machine gun
fire. Out beyond them. are rifle, pits
and barbed wire entainglements plac-
ed in all positions where an attack
might originate.
Still other precautions have been
taken in front of the advanced line of
trenches by digging deep bitches
whose existence is hidden by light
covering of branches and turf, max
ing them invisible to approaching cav
airy, infantry or artillery, and form
ing veritable traps into which an at
tacking force might fall prey to the
defenders machine guns and rifles.
The approaches to- the trenches
from the rear consist Of subterranean
galleries permit the reliefs to be made
without t.ny exposure of the men.
All along this front posts of obser-
vation have been established, each Of
which is constantly occupied by at
least three men provided with power
full field glasses and in direct tele-
phonic communication with headquar-
ters and with the artillery batteries
In the immediate vicinity. The en-
placements of these batteries are
known only to the headquarters staff
and the men who serve the guns, all
Of which are buried in the earth, only
their muzzles protruding. For the
benefit of the gunners the ranges of
all prominent objects in the front
have been measured.
Behind the lines Of trenches runs
light railroad line for the purpose of
bringing; up ammunition and food and
also, if necessary, reinforcements OF
men to any point which may be men
aced. Further provision for the con-
veyance OF reinforcements is at hand
in the large numbers of automobiles
Of all kinds which can make the jour
ney speedily from any one point to
another carrying groups Of armed
The existing forts also have been
strengthened, but now only serve as
supporting points and depots for large
bodies Of troops resting. from their
trench duty. - .@
The Partisan delights in making
Sunday trips to observe the works l.
tended for his defence, and, although
he is not permitted to learn the Sec
rets of the arrangements, he has been
able to see sufficient to inspire him
with confidence.

CYCLONE NEAR LAKE CITY
RESCUERS FIND BABY UNHURI
IN MIDST OF WRECK.
Frame Building Being Erected Blown
Against Old One, Wrecdng Both
Almost q Bad Fire.

Wednesday night about Z o'clock q
very destructive cyclone visited the
Gaskins neighborhood, about SIX
miles east Of Lake City, blowing
down outhouses, trees and the like
The most serious damage reported
was to. J. F. Lawrence's new house
which he was erecting just in front
of the one In which he was living
When they heard the roaring of the
wind Mr.. La Trence and the contrac-
tor who was doing the work for him
stepped on the front porch to see
what it was, and about this time the
frame Of the new house was blown
over on to the old house, breaking it
! down upon the family.
Mr.. Lawrence and Mr.. Hazelden,
the contractor, after about thirty
minutes extricated themselves from
the timbers and at once began the
work of rescuing the other members
of the family, and at the same time
preventing the spread of the fire,
which had caught some Of the tim
bers which fell near to the fireplace,
Ill " ulCu IuSlO We~S q 1cI1 LII l lac
wreck was so great that it required
almost three hours, with the assist
ance Of the neighbors, to remove the
broken timbers and rescue all Of the
family.
The last one to be rescued was a
baby about one year old, which was
found in the bed with one Of the
joists just across its chest, yet there
was not a scratch on its body, and
except for the cold it appeared not to
have suffered from the storm. For a
distance Of three miles the trees and
all small houses were blown down
and the damage is variously estimat-
ed, but it will be found to be con-
siderable amount, especially when the
loss in timber is considered.
A severe wind storm, in the nature
of cyclone, blew down everything
in its path for distance Of several
miles in the Cades section of the
county early Wednesday night. Trees.
fences and small houses were easy
prey for the cyclone.

where the fire burned fercest was
opposite Fifty-sixth street. Hamper
ed in their efforts to reach the blaze,
the fremen dug into the pavement
with their axes. They make hole
above the subway at Fifty-third
street. From this opening belched a
volume Of smoke and flames as if
f1om a crater. A hose was directed
tn. 'ough the opening and even hand
ext aguishers were used.
Fv ten blocks the streets were
lined with ambulances that came

PRESIDENT ON SUFFRAGE
HE AGAIN REFUSES TO AID THE
SUFERAGETTES.
President Wilson Interested in the
Fight But Believes the Issue Is a
State One Only.

President Wilson declined Thurs
day for the sixth time since he enter.
ed the White House to support a fed
eral constitutional amendment fol
woman suffrage When delegation
Of Democratic women, who declared
they had helped elect him, presented
a plea that he support the proposed
amendment he reiterated his previous
declaration that he considered suf-
frage q State issue.
Mrs. George A. Armes, president
Of the District of Columbia Wilson
and Marshall League; Miss Alberta
Hill, of New York, and Dr.. Frances
McGaskin, spokesman for the delega-
ton, reminded the president that the
House would vote on the suffrage
amendment January 12.
81 am most unaffectedly compH-
mented by this visit that you have
paid me-" the president told the wo-
men. "I have been called on several
times to say what my position is on
the very important matter that you
are so deeply interested in. 1 want
to say that nobody can look on the
fight you are making without great
admiration, and I certainly am one Of
those who admire the tenacity and
the skill and the address with which
you try to promote the matter that
you are interested in.
"But I am tied to conviction
which I have had all my life that
changes of this sort ought to be
brought about state by state. If it
were not a matter Of female suffrage,
If it were a matter of any other
things connected with suffrage, I
would hold the same opinion. 1t is
long-standing and deeply matured
conviction on my part and, therefore,
I would be without excuse to my own
constitutional principles If I lent my
support to this very important move
ment for an amendment to the coRsti-
tuition of the United States.
Frankly, I do not think thai this
Is the wise or the permanent way to
build. I know that you perhaps
unanimously disagree. with me, but
you will not think the less of me for
being perfectly frank in the avowai
of my own convictions on that sub
iect; and certainly that avowal rep
resents no attitude of antaganism,
but merely an attitude Of principle.
"I want to say again how much
complimented I am by your call and
also BY the confidence that you have
so generously expressed in me. I
hope that In some respects may live
to Justify that confidence"
