Washington, Nov. 1s.-While the

Officials qualified their assertions
somewhat by stating that if a vessel

safe, but that weather conditions and
the opportunity given for passengers

nent circumstances. From these init
night the American government would

with Austria. and that even though as
the Austrian Admiralty has declared

gers and crews of the Ancona 10 be
transferred, this was not regarded as
affording American citizens a sufficient
| opportunity to be saved.
The United States has insisted
throughout that the operations of sub
marines shall not 'ieopardize the lives
of American citizens and notwith-
standing the formal denial from Wen
ma that the Ancona was shelled after
she stopped. the fact that the ship was
! torpedoed while a number of passengers
still were aboard is regarded as the
chief circumstance upon which repre-
sensations will be made.

AN APPEAL TO JusTIcE-LovlNG
MEN AND WOMEN.
poino the Square Thing-Are you
One?

The Ministerial Alliance of Denver,
together with the Denver Peoples Al
lance, after a thorough investigation
of the case of ]. w. Jones, have de-
cided that his is a worthy cause for
the charity and assistance of all col
ored men and women. 1t appears
that in self defense he killed another
man. He was tried and sentenced to
hang Dec. Is, 1914. Ex-Gov. Ammons
reprieved him until May, 1915. We
must raise 5000 to get his case to
the Supreme court before that time.
Jones is without friends, has no mon
ey and faces death. We believe the
Supreme court will rule in his favor.
We must raise 5000. We appeal to
you. act at once. Send your dona-
tions to Titus s. Rector, 2716 Welton

SOME FORMS OF RHEUMATISM
CURABLE.

Rheumatism is a disease character
lied by pains in the joints and in the
muscles. The most common forms
are: Acute and Chronic Rheumatism,
Rheumatic Headaches, Sciatic Rheu-
matism and Lumbago. All of these
types can be helped absolutely by ap-
plying some good liniment that pene-
trates. An application of Sloan's Lin
iment two or three times day to the
affected part will give instant relief.
Sloan's Liniment is good for pain, and

AUSTRIAN FRONT
BECOMES ACTIVE

London, Jan. 26.-The sudden still
fleming of the Austrian front at the
eleventh hour to check the Russian
invasion Of hungary as natural Sc
quence of the occupation of Buko'
wilma seems for the present to be the
event of chief military importance.
The Russians seem to recognize this
and all recent dispatches from Petro'
grad have emphasized the Austro
German offensive into the southeast
ern theater.
Second in importance, perhaps, are
the Russian movements near the East
and West Prussian frontiers-move'
ments Of which the German statement
received by wireless takes cognizance.
although insisting that no new ad'
vance into German territory is now
feared.
In the western theater there has
been so little change that the British
newspapers print the ofacial com
nunications with scant comment. pre-
ferring to feature Sundays naval &C.
ton. The facts concerning this en-
gagement are not given In detail and
the admiralty had nothing to add to
the original announcement.
