European War.

Fighting along the hundred
mile front in the east as well as
around Verdun in the west is
most terrific. $4,000 are report
ed to have been lost in one en-
gagement by the Russians this
week, and the German losses
near Verdun have been heavy.
Nearly a dozen ships have
been sunk in one way or another
within the week, Germany losing
three. On a merchant ship con-
verted into an auxiliary cruiser
which was sunk in the English
Channel, there were more than
a hundred Americans and strange
to say, the majority women. 1t
is a matter of enquiry as to
what sunk the ship, but there is
some suspicion that mines which
had been planted by the English,
have bern torn from their moor
ings and were encountered by
several of the ships which have
been sunk rather mysterinosly.
The latter part of last week
there was a sea battle in the
north sea between British and
German war ships, and the
fight resulted in what seems
about a draw, both sides losing
vessels.
AS the German warship was
going down under the fire of an
English man-of-war, she shot a
torpedo and sunk the English
fighter.

Editor Byerly

In his manifesto in the first
issue of Charlton Recorder, after
taking it over last week, editor
A. J. Byerly paid a high COM
pliment to his predecessor and
exhibited due modesty in his
public statement concerning his
intentions.
Mr.. Byerly is an old hand at

is a good business man shows
forth in his dealings already.
He will publish a Democrat
paper, stand for all that is good
for the city and be one Of US,
and we heartily welcome him
and his family.
Mr.. Byerly asks only for a
fair division of the patronage of
the community and county and
we trust that it will be unhesi-
tatingly accorded him.

A SALISBURY SUICIDE
Wilbur Lee Took Strychnine
No Cause is Known.
Only Child.

We have taken from the notes
of our Salisbury correspondent
the following account of the
death of a highly esteemed young
man who was popular among his
acquaintance here as well as at
his home town.
Wilbur, the 20 year old son of
Perry Lee, the garage man, well
known about town, committed
suicide Friday morning, by TAX
ing a large dose of strychnine,
dying in a few minutes. He ar
rived at the Morehead hotel in
the latter part of the night, but
did not retire to a room. but
rested temporarily on a cot, un-
til breakfast time, when lighting
a cigar, he went out. and a short
time after was found in convul-
sions, at his fathers garage and
died soon after being found. No
adequate cause is assigned for
his rash act, only a few nebulous
rumors being afoat, and it may
never be definitely known why
he should wish to destroy him
self. His boyhood companions
speak we'll of him and his death
is deeply deplored. After funer-
al services at the home of Mrs.
Wilson, the remains were ship
ped to Arthur, ILL.,, for inter
ment. We regret the tragic
death of this promising young
man, and extend 70 his father
and relatives such consolation as
we can in their hour of bereave.
ment. He had much to live for,
but for some reason life's bur
den proved too heavy for him.

Missouri Boy Poet.

Duncan Cox, a II year old
school boy Of St. Joseph, is a sure
enough juvenile poet. Some of
his verses are excellent. He is
a fine looking lad and all boy.
He delights in baseball and such
sports and will leave a poem any
where in its construction to go
for a game of any kind. He is
an inveterate reader of the Scien-
tific American and Popular Me-
chanics magizines, yet has pen
chant for the poets as we'll. His
memory for dates, objects and
scenes is unsaal for a child, and
long after he has been on a trip
he will write a verse on some
feature of it.
His ambition at present is to
be a boy scout, and he is impa-
tient to reach his 18th. year that
he may join He wants to go to
Annapolis and become one CT the
navy.
Duncan has had many of his
verses published in the leading
magazines, and the Sunday Kan
sas City Star reproduced several
of them together with lengthy
comments ou the already famous
school boy.

Old nlinoy Mason

C. N. Butt who formerly
owned the fine 320 acre farm
between this city and Salisbury
and which now belongs to Nc
Mutt Welch and Clarence Gehr-
hart is the third oldest A. F. &
A. M. in Illinois, having joined
the order July 8, 1854. Mr..
Butt is nearly SO years old, and
yet active in lodge and municipal
affairs at his home town of
Knoxville. Mr.. Butt IS also a
R. A. C. and Council mason.
The Knox County Republican
dated March 16 has a SPLENDID
cut of Mr.. Butt in uniform of
Master Mason, and also a good
write up of the veteran.
The editor of the Courier was
a guest at the home of the hospit-
able pioneer of Knox county
about 1876 when he was there
to assist in bringing to this
county a lot of horses exchanged
in the deal for the farm mention
ed. The culinary accomplish
ments of Mrs. Butt will ever be
remembered by James j. Ward
and the editor especially her
brand of apple dumplings, of
which Jim never failed to make
away with four or five every
time he gotta chance at them.
May the good people live tc
round out a century of life and
be remembered by all their old
acQuaintances with as great
pleasure as we feel when they
are frequently called to mind.

Willard Still Champion

Saturday night the successful
white hope again proved his
prowess in the ring by easily de-
feating the next fighter in the
world, Jess Willard, after break
ing his right hand in the third
round winning every round with
points to spare against Frank
Moran, a blond boxer from Jer-
sey.
The headlines of the papers
say that the third round in which
Willard broke his hand was in
favor of Moran, but the detail of
the round does not bear out the
claim. Here it is: Willard
smashed a right into Morans
body, doubling Moran up.
Morans savage swings could not
reach Willards jaw. Willard
jabbed Moran with his left al
most at will. Moran grew shaky
under the punching. Willard
ducked two right swings and
laughed. Moran swung right
to the body as the bell rung.
Morans round" Morans parti-
sans can lay claim to the round if
they desire.
Willard weighed in at 259s
pounds and Moran 201a. Willard
was five inches taller and had
much longer reach, but no more
pluck. Willard had no visible
marks at the end of the fight
while Moran had one eye badly
cut, nose dislocated and bunged
up generally. Madison Square
Garden New York City had
every one of the 10000 seats filled.
Some of the most prominent men
in the country were present and
many notable women. Jim Cor
bett, Fitzsimmons and John L.
Sullivan, all champions in their
day, were on hand and each
when introduced, got an ovation
which thrilled the gladiators,
Jno. L. coming in for the lions
share. Jim Jeffries was not
there?
The receipts were $15l, 254 90,
of which Willard got SAT, 500, 90,
Moran $23. $4,000, the State of
New York Sill, ,344,0 expenses
of the fight about $780, 900 and
Tex Richard and Sam McC Crackin,
the promoters $4,000: The
state gets a per cent Of gate
receipts for permitting fights.

AMBASSADOR FRANCIS
First MissOurian is Banqueted.
Farewell Impressive

Hon. D. R. Francis left for
his post as Ambassador of the
United States at st. Petersburg,
Russia, Saturday and the entire
country wishes him safe voy-
age.
His many business associates
in st. Louis assembled to do
honor to the most distinguished
Missourian, and there were nota-
bles from other points over the
country at the great banquet.
A second banquet and reception
was rendered the new Ambassa-
dor just before he left, and that
the business as well as the social
interests of St. Louis and the
state will miss the greatest ex-
ecutive citizen of the country
today more than that of any in
the government, there will be
none to deny.
Governor Francis selection for
the very important post at any
time more especially at this
time when the great nation is
struggling now for its independ-
ence and keeping this country
on tenter hooks of international
relationships lnterwined with
neutrality, was a most notable
instance of President Wilson's
determination to place only the
highest qualities in position OF
Importance.

VILLA HAS ESCAPED
Eludes Pursuers When COrnered.
False Reports Made
Army Divided.

General Pershing, command
ing in the field in Mexico, tired
of the dilatory action of the
Carranza troops and left them
with a picked force to close in
on a point where the rebel chief
was reported to have stopped to
recuperate his men and horses.
Col. Dodds colum of cavalry
went on the west side of the
mountain range and Gen. PERISH
ing remained on the eastern side,
both seeking the outlaw where
he was reported to have been
only a short march ahead of the
pursuers. That Villa is in the
Sierra Madre mountains at all is
a matter Of considerable doubt,
for false reports have been
given all along by Mexicans
supposed to be favorable to the
capture of the bandit. One thing
appears to be certain, and that
Villa is headed for the country
where he has confederates under
Canuto Reyss in considerable
numbers, and it is conceded that
if the bandit chief forms juno
tion with Reyes, it will be a
most difficult matter to capture
him. 1t is therefore that Gen.
Pershing is doubling his efforts
to overtake the sleek desperate
before he gets further. The
American troops are suffering
intensely from various causes,
yet push on intrepidly after the
quarry. The greatest care is
being taken to keep out of ar
ambuscade, the country being
most favorable for such surprise
and Villas method of fighting
being of the bushwacker sor
when he has not enough mel
and munitions to come out in thu
open and fight.
The seriousness of the situa
ton is not minimized at Washing
ton, and the outcome of tn
undertaking is looked upon will
much concern by the admins
tration, especially Senator Stone

Pee Dee Prattle

Mrs. Ruth Cook returned home
last week after visiting her chill
dren in Oklahoma, New Mexico
and Colorado several months.
She was called home on account
of the illness of her grandson,
Carl Cook.
Our school house had close
call from destruction by fire last
week. The fire caught in two
places in the roof, probably due to
some light material having been
thrown in the stove, and thrown
out on the roof by the strong
draught of the flue. The dam
age will amount to probably
$4,000.

Cook, died Tuesday, March 2l,

with a complication of troubles.
He was buried the following day
at Beulah cemetery, funeral ser.
vices were conducted by Rev.
Thompson, assisted by Revs,
Pugh and Bellon. The long funer.
al procession and a church pack
ed to overfowing attested the
respect and admiration for this
young man by his neighbors anc
friends. The bereaved family
have the sympathy of the entire
community.
Will Graves was sick last Sun
day, threatened with pneumonia
but managed to scare it away,
but he had just about recovered
