 "FTHs You of course remember how once at night the bell of the Holy Swiaeo gorsky monastery began to ring without human aid, and when all the plout people understood that a great and important event had been signal ized by this miracle.
 That event was my decision to wage war with Russia and restore to Poland her saints and annex her most cultured land to Germany. l had a wondrous dream. To me appeared the Virgin Mary and commanded me to save her holy convent. which danger threatened.
 "She gazed at me with tears and l proceeded to fulhll her divine behest Know you this. Poles, and meet my troops ike brothers. saviors.

PICTURES BATTLE 0F
 MONS

NEW YORk.-A vivid description of the battle before Mons was given here by Dr. Neville Hopkins of Washington D. C, upon his arrival on the steam ship Kroonland from Liverpool.
 Dr. Hopkins was in Moscow, Russia, with his family when the war broke out He immediately offered his services to the Red Cross division of the French army and they were accepted, He went to the front Aug. 24. From that time until he started for New York he was constantly under fire.
 T was first under fire while I had the head of a wounded French soldier on my lap dressing a gaping wound nel burst overhead. but none of the missiles hit either of us. For an hour after that l was under fire and the noise and the sights of the battlefield almost resulted in my complete phvsi- cal collapse.
 T saw hundreds of men torn to pieces in a few seconds Horses were wiped from sight by the terrific artil- lery fire. The slaughter was terrible Fully 5000 Germans were killed in the charge. Riderless and wounded horses dashed in all directions.
 During the retreat from Mons, at a place near Cambrai, l saw the English cavalry ride up to support their in fantry IL was a wonderful sight The men seemed to be a part of the horses They salloped like mad. and hundreds If the brave fellows were killed But they drove back the Germans
 Nothing can describe what a battle field is like. under such conditions The dead bodies of men and horses lie everywhere. piled on top of each other. The noise Is so great that it is lmpos : sibe to make yourself heard. even if. you shout at the top of your lungs into a mans ear. The only way to com is by signs"

BUILDING THE WORLDS
THIRD MERCHANT FLEET

At the present writing the United
States has a greater tonnage of mer.
chant ships under construction thar
any other nation, except Great Bri.
tain, ever had at any one time. The
authority for this statement is Secre-
tary of Commerce Redfeld, in his
Brooklyn speech, delivered two days
ago. When these ships are completed
we shall have the third merchant
fleet in the world--far below Great
Britain or Germany, but greatly in
excess of the fleets of the other mar
thine Powers.
The incentive for shipbuilding is
two-fold. Ocean freights are from
six to ten times as high rs they were
before the war, according to the Sec
rotary. The other incentive is appar-
ent to every observer of American
transportation 1t is the freight con-
gestion to tidewater terminals be-
cause of lack of cargo room for out
going shipments. We must build
ships to keep our traffic moving.
Every American will take pride in
the fact, vouched for by Mr.. Redfeld,
who is himself a member of the Amer
lean Society of Marine Engineers,
that the American merchantmen now
building will be the best cargo ships
in the world. This recalls the glo-
rious ante bellum days when Ameri-
can clippers swept the seas Of the
world and Carried the broom in ev-
cry trade. We cannot share the pes
simism Of those gentlemen who see
these ships transferring to foreign
registry at the close of the war. They
are being built as necessary instru-
mentalities of American Commerce,
and the uselessness Of foreign ships
as vehicles for the carrying trade Of
America in time Of war needs no adj
ditional emphasis in the minds Of
American shippers, st. Louis Re
public.

THREE THINGS

There are three lessons l would write
Three words as with burning pen,
In tracing Of eternal light
Upon the hearts of men:
Have Hope Though clouds environ
now,
And gladness hides her face in
scorn,
Put thou the shadow from thy brow.
No night but hath its morn.
Have Faith. Where'er thy bark is
driven,
The calm's disport, the tempter's
mirth,
Know this-God rules the hosts of
heaven
The inhabitants of earth.
Have Love. Not love alone for one,
But men, as men, thy brothers call,
And scatter like the circling sun,
Thy charities on all.
Thus grave these lessons on thy soul
Hope, Faith and Love-and thou
shalt find
Strength when life's surges rudest
roll.
Light when thou else vert blind.

LIVE STOCK REPORT

AS far as choice heavy and butcher
hogs were concerned the market OPEN
ed steady with outside buyers taking
these kinds readily, paying top of
$685..
Packers held out of the trade until
noon since receipts were $4,000, and
then bought their hogs Zoe lower than
yesterday. The bulk of the good hogs
$50 pounds upwards sold at $6.40 to
$3.50; roughs at Sc to $635.
The pig market was the weakest
spot of the trade, these grades declin-
ing 25c per hundred with 10 to 1870
pounds bringing $5.75 to $6.15, with
lighter pigs at $3.50 to S5.75.
Owing to the near approach of
Christmas, there were very few or
ders here today as swine bought on
the present market will get down East
around Christmas. AS result of this
the market, after outsiders had fin
lsned was lett IN packers hands, and
some hogs were carried over owing to
the low bids.
Cattle trade draggy this week ow-
ing to the approach of the holidays,
and rather heavy receipts. Generally
fat steers, heifers and yearlings are

TOM IODINE ON MONEY

Fatty Lewis, a Kansas City news
paper man. No further introduction
is needed. Fatty has a boy, and he
is going to raise that boy, so he says,
"to keep his eye off the dollar and to
measure life and its success in terms
Of helpfulness and good deeds" We
don't know whether Fatty ever said
that or not, but the report that he
did has prompted few words from
Tom Bodine Of the Paris Mercury,
Bodine takes the floor:
with all our contempt for mere
money, it continues as the embodiment
of all power, and to raise a boy to be
Indifferent to it is to break his pride
and his heart and rob him of his self
respect before he dies. Money is a
tailsman that brings even to the most
unmitigated ass that measure Of re-
spect that may make even an ass use
full 1t is the secret alif that unlocks
the clew to human happiness and sue
cess, and that empowers each and ev-
cry spiritual aspiration Culture de-
spises it, yet bows to it. The poor
malign it, yet grab for it with eager
greedy hands. The pious refer to it
as the root Of all evil on Sunday
morning and on Monday sidestep the
penitentiary by the narrowest Of mar
gins to get more Of it, The radical
reviles and wishes to God he had a
rich uncle who would die and leave
him million. Your opinion under
ordinary circumstances, may not be
worth a dime, but if you have made
money, or buy or sell, all wisdom is
yours. You may be as ignorant Of
world movement as a Piute Indian,
but money makes you profound in
statecraft. You may have never read
half a dozen books in your life, but
your opinion of literature and what
it ought to cost is worth more than

GOV. FERGUSON PREDICTS
WILSON'S RE- ELECTION
KEEPING COUNTRY AT PEACE
IN MOST TRYING TIME IN
HISTORY, ASSURES HIS
REELECTION
Applouds Presidents Mexican Pol
icy-Caranza Only Man Who Can
Rehabilitate that Country.

Governor Ferguson Of Texas pass
ed through st. Louis on his way home
from Washington City last week.
While at the Capital he had lengthy
conference with the President, and to
a representative of the St. Louis Re-
public he said:
president Wilson was eager to as
certain the true feeling of the Texans
regarding the Mexican situation We
assured the President that he did not
make any mistake in recognizing Ca
ranza," said Gov. Ferguson. "He is
the only Mexican who can rehabilitate
that country. The peace-loving peo-
pie of Mexico have confidence in this
man and every day the situation is
much better.
"The business men in Mexico think
that the rebellious days are nearly
over and that they again will come in
to their own. The reign of the bands
has about subsidized.
"There will be more peace in Mex
leo next year than there will be in the
Republican party, when the standpat-
ter again will try to throttle the
Progressive wing of that party.
"Some of the newspapers have ed
itorialized over the so-called un-
friendly feeling of the Texans as to
the Presidents Mexican policy. The
real truth is that Texas is with Pres
ident Wilson, hook, line and sinker.
an my state we are as unit for
preparedness, and / think that every
real American will stand by the Pres
ident in this particular policy"
Gov. Ferguson was asked what he
would do if Villa, who, according to
press dispatches, is a prisoner in his
own camp, would migrate to Texas.
a guess we would treat him like
any other undesirable and lock him
up" retorted Ferguson.
In discussing the political outlook
Gov. Ferguson said:
every section of the country is
getting more prosperous every day.
The mills in the East are working
night and day. The railroads are do
ing a wonderful freight business. The
tracks are congesteG by cars hand
ling commodities consigned to every
part of the United States. The farm
ers in almost every State have plenty |
Of money, as farmers have been able
to ray their back accounts.
"That is the condition,
ut always has been said that the
political party in power is held re-
sponsible for the conditions Of the
country. If that is true it is but log
ical to predict that President Wilson
win be reelected by an overwhelming
majority.
II have not discussed the one great
reason why the President will sue
coed himself and that is, he has been
ai,le TO Feep this country At peace

trlDutlOn 10 the lanlily eAcncquef Is
as fancy cady maker. The State is
not on her list of patrons.
Number is son in the fifth school
grade, and his brother Number 8, is
in the third grade. These boys are
agents for the Saturday Evening
Post" the Country Gentleman and
such periodicals. They are not on the
State pay roll
Number 10 entered school this year.
He has an ambition to be the editor
Of an agricultural paper-and will
be trained to be too suspicious of re-
ports started by political candidates
to give them space in his paper.
Number II and u are twin girls,
too young to enter school or to be en-
tered on the State pay roll. All they
ask or expect, is fair play for daddy
whose favorites they are.
Number 1S was a year old the 10th
instant. She doesn't expect to get
on the State pay roll until after her
fathers term as Governor has expir-
ed.
Number IA is the good wife herself,
Sewing on buttons, mending socks,
making up beds, helping with the
washing and ironing, selecting pro-
perly balanced rations, etc, make life
sufficiently interesting for her. She
is not on the State pay roll, but has
her opinion of the fends who spread
such reports. If she were g man
somebody would get hurt.
Now, Brother Case, there is the
whole story. / don't believe your
hand, or the hand of the public,-es-
pecially that great body of farmers
constituting your readers is against
industry, efficiency and honesty,
though these traits may be found in
a State official with large family
an official so ambitious as to aspire to
an Office others may try to purchase
with filthy lucre and mendacity rath-
or than with honest service.
Yours very truly,
CORNELIUS ROACH.
The editor of the Ruralist of course
made correction. Editorially in the
next issue, among other things Of
Secretary of State Roach, he said:
"Few men in public or private
life are more dependable. Prob
ably few persons have given
credit to the assertion that he
whole family was on the State
pa,' roll, but few would question
the truth of the assertion that
four out of family of thirteen
were. That would be small
per cent compared with other
records. No public official can
rightly be censured for hiring
relative as competent as Miss
Roach has proved herself to be,
and no one would expect him to
discharge her"
Everybody in Carthage, where most
of the Roach children were born,
know that every child is taught to
work.. and they all know what it
means tc labor for a living. Their
fathers election to an office with a
modest salary did not in the slightest
particular change the habits of any
member of the family. They are re-
signed to accept the life of labor to
which they have all been elected. The
one that works for the State does not
feel disgraced because she has to work
no more or less than any of the
others They all work, don't care
who knows it, and are not worried
about the opinion of those that look !
down on people because they have to
work for a living.-Carthage Demo-
