Gov. Dunno Says "Hyphenated
Americans" Should Aid President
to Maintain Neutrality.

CINCINNATI Ohio. March 1s.-As-
serting that European belligerents in
trampling on the rights OF neutrals
had made It difficult to keep the
United States from being embroiled.
Gov. Edward F. Dunno OF Illinois last
night pleaded with ''hyphenated Amer!-
cans to aid the administration in the
crisis by refraining from the public
expression OF whatever sympathfes they
may have with nations at war. Speak
ing at St Patrick's day celebration
Of the Irish Fellowship Club. Gov.
Dunno said that persons OF foreign
birth or lineage in America should
place loyalty to this nation above all
else
TT is now the supreme duty OF tho
statesmen in Washington to keep this
country from being embroiled in the
conflict in Europe" asserted Gov.
Dunno. Day by day the belligerents
are trampling on the rights of neutrals
keep our country from entanglement.
In this critical situation It is the duty
of every American citizen to uphold
the President In his efforts to preserve
peace between this country and the
warning nations.
quilted in the European cataclysm
would be a stupendous political blum
der. II not a political crime. which the
patriotic President and the Secretary
of State will not commit. Let not.
then, American citizens of any race
embarrass our officials at this time by
public expression of any sympathies or
by participating in organized efforts to
give contra band assistance to any OF
the belligerents."

Farmer Browns Boy and
Hooty the Owl.

Farmer Browns Boy had taken II into
his head to visit the Green Forest 1t
was partly because he hadn't anything
else to do, and 1t was partly because
now that it was very near the end OF
winter he wanted to SEQ how things
were there, and II there were any signs
of the coming Of spring. Blacky the
Crow saw him coming and Black
cbuckled to himself. He had watched
every day for a week for just this
thing, Now he would tell Farmer
Browns boy about that nest of Hooty
the Owl.
He flew over to the lonesome corner
Of the Green Forest, where Hooty and
Mrs. Hooty had made their home, and
at once began to cav at the top OF his
voice, and pretend that he was terribly
excited about something. cav, cav,
cav. cav, cav" shouted Blacky. At
once all his relatives within hearing
distance hurried over to Join him: They
knew that he was tormenting Hooty,
and they wanted to join him in the
fun. 1t wasn't long before there was
a great racket going on over In that
lonesome corner of the Green Forest
OF course Farmer Browns Boy heard
1t. He stopped and listened. Now 1
wonder what Blacky and his friends
have found this time" said he when
ever they make fuss like that there
! Is usually something to see there:
believe I'll go over and have look;
So he turned in the direction of the
lonesome corner of the Green Forest,
and as he drew near he moved very
carefully so as to see all that he could
without frightening the crows He
knew that SO soon as they saw MIN
they would fly away, and that might
alarm the one they were tormenting,
for he knew enough of crow ways to
know that when they were making
such a noise as they were now making
they were plaguing some one.
Blacky was the first to see him be-
cause he was watching for him. But
he didn't say anything, until Farmer
couldn't help but see that nest and
Hooty himself sitting up very straight

TO COVER MANY ACTIVITIES.

Miss Florence NJ. Brown, general Sec
retary of the Wv. C. A., who is to
have charge OF the campaign to raise
$500 In the six-day financial cam
paign beginning Monday next. plans
to divide the sum into many parts COW
ering various branches Of activities.
In this manner 1t is hoped that friends
Of the organization may give their as
sistance to that branch of work in
which they are most deeply interested.
Those features of the work needing
the greatest assistance will get 1t in
this way, it is believed. In making
calculations as to the differences be-
tween the running expenses of the sew
eral branches and the money received
for that branch through regular chan
neis, all the costs of the work are to
be considered. These will include light
ing and heating and similar items.
One feature which is thought to be
Of particular interest at this time Is
that work on home for the associa-
ton of Lancaster, Pa, has just been
started at that place. Miss Brown first
served as a secretary at Lancaster. The
new home there Is to cost 100000.

GERMAN OFFICIAL REPORT
ON SINKING Of DRESDEN
Cruiser Blown Up by Her Own Crew
and Colors Never Hauled Down,
Says Legation at Santiago.

That the German cruiser Dresden
was blown up by her own crew and
never hauled down her colors, and that
she was sunk after being attacked In
neutral waters. Is asserted in an Official
report received last evening by Count
Won Bernstorff the German ambassador
here.
The official report added that the
British ships began firing from dis
| tance of 1000 meters, but that rather
than be destroyed by the enemy ships
the commander Of the Dresden chose
to save his crew and abandon the ves-
sell The report came from the Ger
man legation at Santiago. Chile. The
German embassy made public the text
Of the dispatch from Valparaiso, as
follows:
Text of Embassy Statement.
wounded officers Of the Dresden
make the following statement:
1.-The Dresden was lying at anchor
about 500 yards from the shore, in
Cumberland bay, Juan Fernandez
when she was attacked by the Kent
Glasgow and Drama, in the early morn
ing of the 14th. She replied with sew
eral shots to the enemy's fire, which
had been opened at a distance of from
two to two and a half miles. An enc
my broadside damaged the Dresdens
stern. whereupon the Dresden showed
the flag of truce and sent out boat
protesting against bombardment in a
neutral port.
THE British commander replied that
he had orders to destroy the Dresden.
that the rest would have to be settled
by diplomatic means. and that he
would proceed with the bombardment
unless the commander Of the Dresden
blew up his ship himself.
"Thereupon the majority OF the crew
was landed the captain remaining on
board with a small number of men.
After bl)wing up the cruiser the cap
tain and this party also went ashore.
1.-THE exact number of killed has not
yet been determined. but it amounts
to about three to ten. The number Of
wounded is fifteen. a Chilean vessel
was also damaged by pieces of English
shells; other pieces fell on the ground.
Chile Is Investigating.
"The Chilean government has dis
patched two cruisers to Juan Fernan-
dez with orders to investigate the af-
fair.
The Dresden did not haul down her
colors as stated in the official an
nouncement of the British admiralty,
which does not even mention the fact
that the attack took place in a neu-
trail harbor."
