Thrilling Experieuce.

Queenstown, May 3O.-The White
Star liner Megantic, carrying many
passengers from Liverpool to Mon

steamer reported the captain had
evaded the submarine, that his shir

One hundred saloons in CHICAGO

the last week, High rents, poor trade,
big expense for free lunch. and the
fact that the city may 60 dry before

made every true son of the south

Probably Their Last Reunion.

The belief is very general herea
bouts that this will be about the last
reunion the greater number of
the old soldiers will be able to at
tend. 1t will never get any near er
and before it returns to this general
section, the vast majotity of the old
soldiers will have answered the last
summons. Hence the greater num-
be- are making a very earnest effort
to attend this reunion. Richmond,
the Capital Of the Confederacy, holds
undisputed possession of the hearts
of the old soldiefs and hence their
desire to get back there again before
they die. They would like to live
over once again those days when
they fought, bled and suffered to-
gether. 1t is expected that this
meeting, will not only be the most
interesting in point of features, but
it will be the biggest held in recent
years.

Hearts of the People With Wilson

Hearts of the People With Wilson.
Said Smaller Matthews, of Chica-
90 University, before the Sunday
Evening Club the other night:
AT this moment, when the nation
faces one of the gravest crises in its
career,I am sure the hearts ofAmer-
lean people goes out to the simple,
earnest man at Washington npon
whom falls the burden of finding a
solution for the problems confront
ing us.
We believe that the heart of every
American will echo Dean Matthews
words. From one end of the coun-
try to the other has come the mes
sage of the people that they trust
their president, that they are sup
porting him in the course he takes.
But this confidence brings great
burden of responsibility. We be-
lieve that the American people
would like to add a message of love
and sympathy-that they would
say:
Our hearts are with you, Wood
row Wilson. We know the heavy
load you carry; we know that our
very trust in you, our willingness to
leave to you the decision of great
events adds to the weight of your
responsibility. We remember, too,
that your heart is often heavy with
your own grief and Loneliness. Be
sure that you have not alone our
confidence in you as president, but
our love and sympathy for Wood
row Wilson, the man who is bearing
our burden" Milwaukee Journal.
