is the symbol of the heart of woman
hood, that womanhood which can forget
country, patriotism and duty, because of
the aching of self, and because of the
plucking of baby fingers; little fingers
which cry out for a father protection
and love. These are the things that are
bigger than war, and always will be, and
these were the things that Mrs. Neid-
hardt was feeling when a little period of
joy was vouchsafed her through the en-
circling gloom. The first week in Deem
Der, her husband actually got his leave
and for ten days the two renewed their
happy former life together, and the ia

is not hard to imagine the delight of
this time, but it sped by so swiftly that
hardly before the welcomes were said
it was time to say goodbye, and this last
goodbye was harder than the first, be-
cause both now knew what a desperate
and destructive thing the great war had
become, both realized the uncertainty of
any future meeting and their parting
took on all the sadness of an eternal
farewell.
She did not write about the Darkness
of the days after her husband had re
turned to service, because perhaps some
things are too bitter to be put into writ
ten words, but to the wives and mothers
of Kansas the thought of what her grief
and anxiety must have been is pathetic
and brings tears to the eyes of all who
think of it.
From the time of his departure up I'M
til the present day few letters have come
from her, but these few are filled with
apprehensions for his safety. She lives
in continual dread that he will be sent
to the trenches where already so many
thousands of his countrymen have waded
in blood and tears. And if he does go
she feels that all must be over because
then his escape from death would be but
miracle and one which is indeed rare.
With the heavy German losses which the
press reports give, it is highly probable
that Mr.. Neidhardt will be called upon
for actual duty, or perhaps has been ere
this.
To this brave Kansas woman, her
countrymen can give little but sympathy.
but that she has in abundance. And
whether she comes back to her native
land with her husband, unscathed from
the horrors of the war, or whether she
may be it on Kansas soil that she renews
her life, may it be under Kansas skies
that she watches the star of hope rise
again, and may it be from Kanas hearts
that she gets her welcome home.

 WILSON DR|FT'
New York Evening Post Says Trend is Alarming
 G. O. P. Leaders.

New York, Oct. 28.-Reviewing political conditions in Pennsylvania the New York Evening Post Qnde-I pendent) announces that a canvas by it's special representative in that state reveals an unmistakable drift to wil-I son which is alarming Republican politicians. A dispatch to the Post from Philadelphia says in part:
 "The drift for Wilson can be de- nied no longer. even in Pennsylvania Stalwart Republicans of this city and state, the old standby of Republican, ism, are admitting almost openly that Hughes has fighting chance Three weeks ago their cry was that Wilson has no chance
 No less an authority than David Martin, supreme Republican boss of Philadelphia until Quay called him the man with the dollar mark on his brow and then toppled him from his throne, told the Republican City Com mittee to-day car idly that Wilson sentiment is getting too strong for comfort in many wards that were looked upon as strongholds of the gang
 Another significant indication of the Wilson drift is seen in the col- umns of a newspaper that was and is a supporter of Roosevelt. It was pointed out once before in this cor respondence that the support given to Hughes by that newspaper did him no good. Now a remarkable change is noticed in the paper. and politicians are wondering if it intends to get in line for Wilson,

 TRAVELLING FAST
 AYERS WITNESS
Man Who Saw Stebbins Hit By Car Testifies Before
 Coroner Phelan.

That Max Reicl's automobile, which struck Henry W. Stebbins. was trav- cling s5 miles an hour was the testi- mony of witnesses at a hearing held yesterday by Coroner John J. Phe- Ian. The coroner decided to start the investigation but must await the out come of Stebbins' illness before he can make a finding. Stebbins is so i'll at the Bridgeport hospital that there is no immediate prospect of getting a statement from him.
 George M. Burhans of 336 Norman street testified this morning that he was standing at Norman street and Fairfield avenue on the night of the accident. He and Walter c. Parkins were waiting for a car to pass so they could cross the street and observed the man on the other side. They saw Reich's automobile approaching at a rate of rbout 35 miles an hour A trolley car passed then and the wit ness did not see the machine hit Steb- bins. All he heard was a muffled sound. Burhans did not think Reich steered the machine on the track to avoid hitting Stebbins. At least the machines course had not changed be- foro the tr-"-v car bfocked the view. iParkins testified practically to the same thing.
 Max Reich of ATT Colorado avenue said he was in his machine with a companion. Eugene Nolan. The mo- torist declared he sounded his horn when 75 to 90 feet away from the crossing. When he saw Stebbins step iron, the curb the pedestrian was 12 or 15 feet away. Reich said his machine was not running more than 20 to g miles an hour. He steered on the track to avoid hitting Stebbins but was una able to do so.

JEWISH LODGE i. TO HAVE FEAST ON ANNIVERSARY
Semi Centennial of Abra- ham Lodge, I. o. B. B.,
 Occurs During February.

Great interest is displayed in fra ternal circles today over the an- nouncement of Abraham lodge. l. O. B'nai B'rith that in February next it will celebrate Its f1ftieth anniversary in a three days festival of religious memorial, banquetting and dancing. Lavish expenditures are promised to make the event one in keeping with the high standing of the lodge not only in this country but abroad.
 Though the fact has been but little known to the general public, Abra- ham lodge, No. S9. as 1t is deparked in America, has had much to do with the comity of nations in relation to the recognition of Jewish citizens of other countries.
 Much prestige was accorded the To- ical organization when Attorney Jacob B. Klein, son of one of the founders of the lodge in this city, was hon. ored with the vice presidency of the Constitutional Grand Lodge of the World, a position more highly valued in Jewish circles abroad than the highest political or financial prefer ment
 To attend to the details of the cele- bration which will be purely of a religious and social nature, com mittee consisting of the past presi- dents of the lodge has been appoint ed including Jacob B. Klein, chair man. Herman Kempinsli, Max Welt stein. Eli L. Lesser, Max Stein. Sig mund Hirschberg. Joshua Meltzer, Henry Greenstein. Theodore E. Stei- Der and Max Cohen.
 ! The first Sunday observance 0 a date ia February mot yet decided up on, will be of a strictly religious char acter. The exercises will take place in the Park avenue temple where Rev. David Levy will preach special sermon. On the following day a banquet will be given at the Strat- field, when international. national and local personages win speak. A third evening will be devoted to a huge ball
 Bnai Brith Abraham lodge was es- tablished in Bridgeport in the year 1867, when there were but a scant half-dozen Jewish families resident here. AmonlI the number were the late Moses and Bernard Klein, who later became we'll known merchants in the community. It was found necessary to appeal to the New Ha- ven organization for assistance in es- tablishing the local charter.
 The lodge hourished and was in- strunental in bringing many of the pioneer Jewish family heads to this city. During the regime of James G.. Blaine as secretary of state, the local organization took a prominent part in international affairs and has since established and maintained its promi- hence in many International matters.
