MANY CHANGES|N
 THE PEERAGES
Many Heirs of Great Titles Have Fallen During War and in Numerous Gases the Next Heir is Now ill the Trenches
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsrArcHl

 LONDON, Aug. 2S.-The casualty lists of the British army have already, after a little more than year of war, brought hundreds of changes in thc British peerage Many heirs of great title have fallen, and in numer- ous cases the next heir is now in the trenches. Several notable titles will become extinct as the result of the death of the sole legal heir. The changes wrought in the peer age by the death roll call into pronli- hence the complications and anamolies of the laws of succession, and it is possible that legislative action may be taken to straighten out some of the kinks which would wipe out titles long , cherished as national memorials or i which would cause them to pass to some obscure relative without the shadow of just claim to ennoble- ment
 As the law stands, succession is limited to direct male descendants, who may be as far removed from the last holder of d title as a grandson of q paternal uncle. Daughters have no claim whatever except by special act of the king, as in the case of Lord Roberts.
 The following is a list of some of the more notable deaths of officers who were heirs to peerages, and the effect their deaths will have on the title:
 Lord Wcndover, who recently died of wounds was sole heir to the Mar quisate of Lincolnshire. a title con- ferred on Lord Darlington in recog- milton of thirty years service to the state. There are five daughters. all married, but they have no claim i either to the barony or the mar ! quisate.
 Captain J. NJ. .Biggs, only son of Lord Stamfordham. private secretary to King George. There is no her to the barony.
 Captain Claud Meysey Thompson. son and heir of Lord Knaresborough. He was unmarried and there is no other heir. SO that the barony will be- come extinct on the death of his father.
 ! Lord Hawarden, who fell carly in ! the war. has been succeeded by his cousin Captain Eustace Maude. who is serving in the Egyptian army. ! Captain Lord Brabourne. His heir is his uncle Cecil Knatschbun- HugSesen.
 | Viscount Northland, is survived by a son less than two years old, who ] becomes heir to the cariGom. ! Julian Grenfell oldest son of Lord , Dcsborough. of Olympic Games fame. One of his brothers, c. w. GrenfeI, has also been killed. Captain Lord WcrsleY. oldest son and heir of the Earl of Marlborough. His two brothers are both army of ficeTS.
 Lord de Freyne. a kinsman of Sir John French. is succeeded by a half brother. Another half brother was killed in action on the same day as the peer.

SANTA CLAUS UP TO DATE

Every year | am tempted to
come out on a housetop and tell
the young and self raising gen.
GRAFTON the truth about Santa
Claus.
| believe it only right that the
children should know Santa
Claus no longer goes about in a
dinky little sleigh, delivering
toys down the chilnneys. He sim
ply couldn't do it if he tried.
That kind Of thing was all right
when his business was small and
he was younger than he is now.
In those days he made the toys
himself-glued even the little
tails of the little toy sheep in
place, stuck the little eyes on
the tops of their little heads,
painted the little bodies as diff
ferent from the real thing as he
could and do it quick, and then,
hitchlng up his six RENDERS, de-
, livered the whole batch before
sunrise Christmas morning. 1t
is different now.
Santa Claus is old, and all he
does is to live on the profits OF
the business. The business now
is run under the name Of S
Claus & Co., and the firm has
many wOrkers-c1erks, drivers
and the rest. Some of the en-
ployees Of this big firm have
grown SO careless that they miss
little boys and girls who live in
out Of the way places. Old Santa
Claus never did such thing in

ter twenty-three hours of danger
and a fearfully exhausting
march through the snow.
How happy they were to be
in time to celebrate the Christ
mas festival in the house of their
God. About six days later, when
the ice had formed, all the rest
of the people came, but oh! so
sad and downhearted. Like little
children they told the mission
aries their tale Of sorrow. They
described how sad they all had
been when they found that it
would be impossible to come to
the mission station for the
Christmas service.

"CHRISTMAS FIRE DANGER
DOUBLED THIS YEAR"
SAYS STATE FIRE
MARSHAL

\ "The danger of Christmas
fires this year is increased two
fold because of the double hoh-
Saturday, December 25th,
and Sunday, the 26th," says Ro-
bert w. Hargadine, State Fire
Marshal.
Therefore, this Department
urges that extra precautions be
taken by all the merchants in
Minnesota to prevent an out
break of fire, which is always
inherent with the Christmas sea-
son, because of the nature of
decorations used and the aug
mented crowds in the stores.
Many mercantile establish
ments lend themselves to this
Christmas hazard by using in
fiammable decorations. The lner.
chant is urged to look we'll tc
this, because holiday fires il
stores are usually holocausts-
a match, a gas flame or an ele
trical defect may cost many
lives and result in mercantile
sacrifice altogether ineXcusable

EAT CHRISTMAS CANDLES
Little EskimOs Love The Christ
mas Service Ard Love to Eat
Their Candles

Somebody has said that when
the world was being made the
Creator gathered up all the
waste material he had left over
and made Labrador out of it.
Some people say the Creator
never intended it to be inhabi-
ted. But inhabited it is with a
sturdy, taciturn band of Eski-
mos, who, thanks to the Mora
Wan missionaries who have pene-
trated to that country, celebrate
Christmas in their own peculiar
way.
AS service time in the church
! draws near all the inhabitants,
old and young, the men on one
side and the women on the 9TH
er, are waiting in eager expecta-
ton. 1t is quite dark by four
| o'clock and the bell rings. All
come trooping in clad in the
best clothes they can muster.
No one stays at home from
these services unless he is sick
or lame, and whenever it is pos
sible sleighs are used to bring
these disabled ones to church.
For the little children the hap
piest part of the services comes
later when each child receives a
lighted candle, symbolizing the
light of the world. Each candle
stands in white turnip which
serves as a candlestick. Most Of
the candles are made from deer
/ tallOw which the Eskimos bring
to the missionaries. After the
services the children eat not
only the turnlp, but what is left
of the candle as well.

sorrs, mostly men, could come

Reports on file in this Depart
ment show that Christmas disas-
tiers are decreasing in numbers.
This is due to the friendly spirit
of cooperation of merchants
with the Fire .Marshals depart
ments throughout the country.
But because of the fact that the
holiday season isa busy one with
storekeeper and customer alike,
the following suggestions are
made by way of reminders:
Watch gas jets-watch smok-
ers-watch electric wiring.
When you store closes Friday
night, December Oath, see that
there is not a spark lying about.
Have all accumulations of rub
bish cleaned up and placed in a
fireproof receptacle or removed
from the premises, and see that
no waste material of an infiam-
mable nature is left in corners
or out-of-the-way places in the
establishment which would re-
suit in fire from combustion.
If these precautions are TAX
en-, the Fire Marshafs Depart
ment feels that more will have

KILLING OCCUPANTS
Wealthy Jersey Woman
and Garage Owner Meet
Death at Crossing.

Tenafy, n. j., Jan. Ten seconds
after leaving the Tenafy station q
Northern Railroad Of New Jersey train
crashed into a taxicab tonight and
killed its two occupants, William Van
denbere. the owner of a garage, and
Miss T. X. Dartnell, a rich resident Of
TenaAy. The accident occurred at the
Jay st. crossing, in the, heart Of Tena-
a. II Il unprotected oui is one Of the
most dangerous crossings in this sec
tion.
There was no gateman or fagman on
duty when the accident occurred. The
train struck the automobile with such
force that it hurled the occupants out
and turned the machine over several
times. Vandenberg was thrown direct
ly in front Of the train. and the wheels
passed over him. Miss Davtnell was
thrown close to the rails and crushed
when the taxicab landed on top of her.
Miss Dartnell was on her way to a
suffrage meeting IN Tenafy Hall. She
had telephoned to Vandenbcrg's garage
for taxi lb, and the call was taken
by Vandenberg himself.
The engineer of the train claims that
he blew his whistle as he neared the
crossing, but that the taXicab tried to
make the crossing before the train.
The machine, according TO the engi-
neer, was almost across the track when
il was struck. Vandenberg, on the
other hand, is said 20 have been a
careful driver and familiar with the
dangers Of the crossing II is believed
that ;he crossing bell. which frequently

police to locate friends or relatives of
the woman. She came here from New
York two years ago and purchased a
fine house on Harding av. 1t is be-
lieved that she came originally from
