lobby and to checkmate the constant encroach-
ments OF that foreign potentate2
The answer to all these questions is, No!
What are the Protestant churches doing
away?
There are 1890 unoccupied pulpits, and at
least that many more, perhaps where the
pastor can't collect his salary
The congregations are dwindllng, and the
young folks drifting away
Still, it's a comfort to think what we are
doing somewhere else: read the following:
Beginning in 1912 the Sabbath Schools of the
society issuing this paper decided to devote four
Sabbaths of the year to giving to special
object in this worldwide mission endeavor. These
objects, and one-day gifts by old and young may
be of interest to the reader:

total, for the twelve days of special giving

So, you see if we can't fill our Is 900 empty
churches, or pay up our $4,000 poorly paid
pastors, we can at least do II whole lot for
India, Africa, China, Korea, Peru, and
Belgium.
Notice how the Zone Day Gifts paid over
$4,000 for missionary travels, and over
$4,000 for missionaries entering fields"
Twelve thousand dollars of One Day money
for medical work in India seems steep, but
you must remember that there are many,
many sick folk in that Buddhist land.
They are not blessed with eternal youth
and health as we are in this country, where
$4,000 Protestant churches stand vacant-a
piteous reminder Of an ebbing church, and
where not single Catholic church is empty
and they can't build new ones fast enough to
hold their immigrant congregations

London, Aug. 27.-The Germans, in
full possession of the entire Brest-
Litovsk line, have resumed the Of
fensive in the Baltic provinces and
are pressing the Russians southeast
of Mitau and east of Ko'no, in an eff
fort to reach the main line of railway
which passes through wilma and
Dvinsk to Petrograd.
This may prove, in time, the most
important of the German operations,
although now they are using more
troops in pursuit Of the Russians re-
firing from Brest- Litovsk and the line
on either side of this fortress.
The Reich, Petrograd newspaper,
today specializing on the German in
tentions, declares it is doubtful If the
Germans, without undisruted possess
sion of the Baltic and particularly of
the Gulf Of Riga, could undertake the
risks attached to operations against
Petrograd this autumn.
The Russians apparently had evac-
uated both Brest-Litovslx and Olita
before the Austro- Germans arrived.
as the latter claim no capture of
booty. Austria officially announced
tonight that Archduke Joseph Ferdi-
nand had found the town of Kanaie-
niez-Litovsk burning when he arrived.
All indications are that the Russians
still are taking every movable thing
that might aid the Austro- Germans
and burning what they are unable to
carry.
The Russians stiTl have their armies
virtually intact and now have pros
poets of a more plentiful supply of
ammunition, so it is expected they
soon will make a stand along some
prepared line.
Paris tonight reported the capture
of several German trenches in Vosges
and announced that French artillery
had been directing an efficacious fire
upon the German positions at various
portions of the front.
What, however, is considered more
significant is the continued activity
of the French air squadron, which has
been bombarding German positions in
France, as well as munitions factories
in Germany.

Says Colonel Reminds Him
of the Maine Farmer
Off for a Drunk.
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Washington, Aug. 27-Secretary
Garrison made public today Major
General Woods reply to the secre-
tary's telegram directing that no rep
etition be permitted of the incident
at the Plattsburg camp precipitated
by Col. Roosevelt's speech.
Your telegram received and policy
laid down will be rigidly adhered to"
General Wood telegraphed.
81 have just read Mr.. Roosevelt's
statement" said Secretary Garrison
in a statement today. "I see he
blames the whole thing on me. He
takes the position that it is notorious
that he has the habit of making indis-
Greet speeches and that it, therefore,
was my duty to find out if he in
tended to go to Plattsburg and If so
to head him off and save him from
himself. Well, may be that's so, but
it is a rather large order. He is a
very active man and l am a very
busy one and it's going to be a very
hard job for me to keep my eye on
him all the time. The colonel's atti-
tude about himself reminds me of
the story Of the Maine farmer who
was on his way to the railroad sta
ton one morning when he met a
friend.
Where you going?' said the
friend. He replied, I'm going down
to Bangor to get drunk-and great
lord how do dread it,"

washington, Aug. 27.-Count Won
BeKnstorf, the German ambassador
On instructions from GERMANY todav
personally informed Secretary Ian
sing that Germany intended to give
fuil satisfaction to the United States
for sinking the Arabic with it's conse-
quent loss Of American lives. Won
Bernstorff promised that If IL was
found the Arabic was sunk without
warning Germany not only would dis
avow the act but give '.full satisfac-
tion.D
II Is wen known that ssfulI satisfac-
lau world have f. i.lall1da rspara-
ton for American lives lost, and as
gUrarces that there will be no more
such tragedies. It also became known
that the state department had been
informed Germany Is ready to renew
the discussion Of the Lusitania sink
ing and offer repatriation for American
lives lost. Nothing further is expect
ed to be done, however, until the com
mander of the submarine that sank
the Arabic makes formal report.
German officials made it plain that
as soon az the strained situation re-
lakes, Germany proposes to ask the
United States to demand that the al
lies cease interfering with legitimate
neutral commerce, and thus permit
the importation Of food for Germanv's
civil population. Germany also is
preparing to protest against the ac-
quiesence by the United States in
the treatment of cotton as contra
band. It is said Germany has indi-
Gated a desire to purchase three mil
lion bales cotton if il can arrange for
delivery.
Count Won Bernstorff conferred
with Secretary Lansing at the state
department nearly half an hour. It
had been suggested that perhaps Ger
many was ready also to make repara-
ton for the Americans lost on the
Lusitania also, but that subject did
not come up at today's conference.
The disposition of the German EN-
bassy Is to take up one step at time.
The ambassador did not make pub
lie the extent of the instructions from
Berlin on which ne acted, but it was
understood they ccizcided entirely en-
tirely with the statement of the Ger
man chancellor in Associated Press
dispatches from Berlin yesterday, ex-
pressing the willingness of the Ger
llman government to make fullest re-
paration If it is shown finally that the
Arabic was torpedoed without warn
ing. So far the German admiralty
has received no report from its sub
marines operating in the Arabic's VI
entity. Further communications are
expected from Berlin to the German
ambassador and to the state depart
ment from Ambassador Gerard
which will advance the negotiations
to q point where attacks on passenger
carrying ships viii be definitely dis
continued, at least while the subject is
under further discussion. The crisis
between the two countries is regarded
as having passed into the realm Of
diplomacy.

wrecked recently while entering the
harbor of st. Nazaire, be suspended

although captain is bound to hand
over control of his ship to pilots when
entering port, he nevertheless, re-
mains responsible.
