theft.
Testimony at the preliminary
hearing satisfied the court that
neither Antonio nor Carpio We're

were released while Severio, the
present defendant, was bound over

1t appears, according to the evil

the pocket of Rago's coat, which was
hanging in his room. Severio Mar

'Id certainly give most anything

result is not impossible, despite past
failures. Thin people are victims OF
mal-nutrition. Il condition which pre-
vents the fatty elements OF food from
being taken up by the blood as they
are when the powers of nutrition are

To correct this condition pnd to

GREAT BRITAIN
MUST EXPLAIN
SHIP DETENTION

Washington, Jan. 20.-The state
department has requested the Brit

the American steamer Greenbrier
from Ne wYork to Bremen with cot
ton under certificate OF the British
consulate at New York was stopped
by British cruiser. sent under the
british flag to British port and de-
tanned two days before being allowed
to complete her voyage to Bremen.
The detention of the Greenbrier
was brought to the aTtentino of the

Captain Farley, her commander, now
at Bremen. Farley stated that at n

he fixed by longitude and latitude

Captain Farley took his ship to Let's

Respect For Nle Flag.

Last week an organization met in
Washington, in a room bedecked with
remnants and streamers of various
kinds. There was much talk about
patriotism, and various speakers
urged that, whatever the other aims
of the body, its primary purpose was
patriotic. At the close of this meet
ing a woman, widely known here
abouts for her practical common
sense, arose to inquire why, amid the
bunting and banners, the United
States flag was nowhere in evidence.
The absence of the flag was but an
oversight, but there are many over
sights of this sort that point to the
need of a greater respect for the U.
S. flag. One step in the right direc-
ton has just been taken by the New
York police department. All of the
10, 900 men on the force have been
notified that they will be required to
salute the flag when they pass the

Historic Parallel.

There are some striking similitudes
between the war of the kaiser's over
in Europe and the war of secession
in America. Except in the gulf
states there was in 1861 no strong
secession sentiment. The gulf states
drew the border states after them.

federate armies chung to the Union

that they went with their own Sec
ton. Here we have contrast, rath-
er than a parallel, for in Germany
the people had nothing to do with it.
War was upon them before they knew
| it. The extremists of the south clam
ored for "our rights in the territor-
ies." The theorizers of Germany
clamored for "a place in the sum-" In
each instance it was as the cry of a

FUNERAL SERVICES
FOR MRS. BLACKWELL

Funeral services were conducted
Wednesday afternoon at 2 o'clock in
memory of Mrs. Judith Evans Black
well, who died at the home of her
aunt, Mrs. Harry w. Lyle, Tuesday
morning. The services, beautiful and
impressive in their every particular,
were conducted by Rev. w. A. jon
nard, pastor of the st. Johns Epis-
copal church, assisted by DR.. John

rial church. A fitting tribute to the
life and character of Mrs. Blackwell
was paid by both ministers. A large
number of friends and relatives were
in attendance and the floral offerings
were of the most beautiful designs.
Following the funeral services the
remains were taken to the Southern
railway station and were shipped to
Shelbyville, Tenn, the former home
of Mrs. Blackwell, where they will
be inferred Thursday. Present from
distance was j. E. Miller of At
lanta. The remains of all of Mrs.
Blackwell's family are inferred at
Shelbyville.

of the lessons of the G. A. R. en-
campment was a deeper respect for
the flag. Comment has been made
about the lack of knowledge of those
in charge of public and private build
ings about raising the flag. Former
" it was a reproach when the nation
al anthem was played in theaters, be-
cause only half the audience was apt
to rise, in struggling fashion. That
state of affairs prevails no longer in
Washington, at least. New York's
injunction to it's police is proper
starting place for the flag among the
adults. Through such efforts the flag
in time will command the conscious
respect due it whenever it is dis
played. What is the matter with the
schools in Johnson City, Tenn, that
there is not more respect given to the
National Flag?

A Soldiers Dream

The popular idea of the soldiers

Grand Review
In corps and grand divisions formed
An endless line they seemed;
The ranks that Lookout Mountain
stormed
With FURNISHED bayonets cleaned;
And Ellsworth proudly led the van,
With starry flag unfurled;
Along the ranks the watch-word ran,
Freedom to all the world"
And veterans from Antietam's bridge
Pressed on to their well known
places;
From Stedman's Woodworking ridge
Came long-forgotten faces;
And Reynolds rode his charger proud
That shifted afar the battle,
Where lowered dense the sulphur
7- cloud
Above the death-shots rattle.
Grim Kearny rode the lines along,
And Sedgwick, too, was there;
While deep and clear the battle song
Rose on the trembling air;
And Lyon, bravest of the brave,
With visage pale and CORY;
And Baker, whom untimely grave
Checked in his path of glory.
And there were Chickamauga's slain

And those who on dark Fair Oaks

The teeming ranks press on;
And those who faced the battle vel

And Reno's eagle eye
Along the blue-gart cohorts glides,
To lead to victory.
All night with measured tread anC

To the lannon's sullen roar,

Marched as in days of yore;
And ghostly bugles wildly swelled
Upon the darkling air.
