January 10.
In his farewell message, cabled late
in October from Buenos Ayres. and
when the. Endurance sailed from that
port for the Antarctic region, Sir Err
nest made known that on arrival at
South Georgia, the biologists of the
staff would be landed TO do scientific
work, while the ship proceeded south
to examine the pack ice and see if it
was loose enough to go into without
unnecessary delay.
After examining the pack the En-
durance was to return to South Geor-
Gia, pick up the members of the ex-
petition and the dogs, then coal to her
fullest capacity and sail south again,
pushing right into the pack. keeping
as much to the east as possible in the
hope of meeting more open water than
probably could be found further west.
Shackleton added that judging from
all reports he gathered thu it S4as

PAYNE SEES LIGHT
Burlingame Banker Says
Hughes Will Stop Row.
All Factions To Be Cemented

trouble in the Republican ranks in

Walter L. Payne of Burlingame, can

for state treasurer.
Since the Republican national con-
vention, Payne has visited more than
western portions of the state. In all
of these counties he found a definite
movement toward reunion of the old
crowds with Hughes as the national
leader. Except in a few extreme cases,
Payne believes the former supporters
of the third party will return to the
Republican party. There is no dis
cord, he declares, concerning the sup
port of the old line Republicans.
Conditions which are now shaping
themselves in Kansas will insure

Payne came to Topeka today from
Alma where he delivered a Fourth
of July speech. He has visited two
thirds of the counties in the state in
the present campaign and expressed
confidence concerning his success in
the August primaries. Payne was as

the late Mark Tulley and was for sew

GERMANY WON'T

No Time Now to Talk of Ending
War, Says Bryce.
Kaiser Will Not Listen
to Peace Overtures.
ALLIES FIGHT FOR PRINCIPLE
Crush Militarism in Europe Is
Ultimate Goal.
nv WILBUR S. FOREST.

London, July 5-.Viscount Bryce,
former British ambassador to the
United States, threw back upon Ger
many the responsibility for prolonging
the war in a luncheon address before
the Pilgrim society in the Hotel Savoy
this afternoon. The affair was in
honor of James M. Beck, of New
York, former assistant attorney gem
eral of the United States. who is to
leave for America
Bryce made a direct reply to a letter
recently sent him from America urg-
ing that he use his best efforts in
behalf of peace He answered that
Germany is not willing to agree to any
reasonable settlement at the present
time.
'Mr. Beck will wish to tell his coun-
trymen at home what we think of war
and peace" began Viscount Bryce.
Recently an address reached me-
signed by Americans saying the war
must end in a draw and asking why
not make peace at once and save fur
Their bloodshed.' 1t is significant that
most of the signers were of German
origin. We all feel the horror and
suffering of war as much as any
pacifist in American, but we cannot
agree to any peace such as was sug-
gested.
War Not End in a Draw.
Firstly, we do not think the war
will end IN a draw. The allies are
going to win, because they will prove
stronger on land and also hold un-
shakeable control of the sea.
Secondly, Germany is not yet pre-
pared for any terms we could accept.
Germany will be beaten but the Ger
q
government has forced on them false
hoods and refuses to accept terms
which would recognize its own failure.
Thirdly, peace now on Germanys
terms would not be permanent but
mere truce.
Lastly, we are fighting for great
principles, vital to the future of man
Kind which Germany has outraged and
which must be indicated. We do not
hate the German people. We do not
desire to destroy their national union
nor inflict permanent injury upon
them, but we do desire to exercise the
evil spirit and diScredit the military
caste delighting in war and threaten
ing all countries, America included.
Nothing but defeat can destroy its
spirit and deliver the Germal people
from the yoke.
Deliverance of Belgium and France.
What Great Britain wants is secur-
ity for herself and her doninions. the
deliverance of Belgium and North
France such changes in the east as
to make it impossible for the Turks
ever again to massacre Christian sub
jects or become vassals or tools of
Germany in her projected eastward
advance.
THE allies are bound and resolved
to prosecute this war until victory is
won for principles and peace estab-
lished on the sure foundations of JUS
tice and freedom"

The Poppies of Iaurium.

Some years ago there was seen in 8
silver mine of Laurium n curious in
stance of the resuscitating power OF
light after many years. The silver
mines of Laurium were abandoned
more than 1000 years ago as unwork-
able and were filed for the most part
with the Stag from the workings Of
the miners.
1t was discovered, however. that this
Stag contained plenty of silver. which
could easily be rendered available by
up TO date appliances. Accordingly 1t
was removed TO the furnace and. when
next the mine was visited, a wonderful
transformation was found to have
taken place. Instead of heap of rub
bish. the mine has become a gorgeous
flower garden. The entire space was
covered with brilliant show OF pop
pies. This profuse vegetable life. 1t is
asserted. belonged to the age In which
the mines were worked. Twenty cen
turies old. therefore. were those poppy
seeds. yet when the removal Of the
alag allowed the light to fall upon
hem. they sprang into life and bloom
