East Africa, from Egypt in the north
to Cape Colony in the south, has been
the main field for British development
But all the time one great OBJ
stacle has lain across the path of this
development: German East Africa
stretches like a wall right across the
middle of the continent, solid Ger
man political barrier between the Eng
lish advance southwark from Egypt
and northward from the Cape. Cairo
to the Cape" has long been a dream
| of British craftsmanship real con-
nection between the rich British pos
session in the north, from the Suez
southwark, and the great British
! stretch from Cape Colony up through
Rhodesia.
But right in the middle Of this chain,
Germany has held one link-German
| East Africa-and without this link the
| British chain was broken into two de-
tached parts, each a small empire, bul
not together a vast British African
empire, like the French African en-
pire of the northwest. That is what
gives a meaning to Portugal's entrance
| in the war, as Fastening the fate OF
German East Africa, the one link to
the British chain from Egypt to the
Cape.

German AFRICA
NOW HEMMED IN
Forces of England, Belgium and Port
ugal Completely Surround Posi-
ton of kaiser's Men.

London, March %. - Correspond
ence of The Associated Press 1.-The
war between Germany and Portugal
has centered attention on the struggle
for Germany's last and greatest col
ony, German East Africa, now hemmed
in on four sides-by Portugals African
colony on the south, the Belgian Congo
on the west, Britain on the north and
southwest, and British ships along the
east-with no communication between
the German colony and the home coun-
try.
This is the chief significance of this
great war, for there is no chance of a
clash of Germany and Portugal in Eu-
rope, with Germany occupied in more
important fields. And besides the
stake of German East Africa, there is
the larger stake of Africa itself, for
these shifts of colonies are gradually
determining the future of whole con-
tinent, second only to Asia, greater
than north or south America, and
three times the size Of Europe.
TogOland, the German garden SPOT
in Africa, was the first to fall; then the
Kameruns; and then German West
Africa. Each was a promising colony
but Togoland has been the only one
that really paid for the immense effort
of development. The losses of these
colonies were trifling moves in the
far more important game-the con-
quest of Africa as a continent-and the
struggle for German East Africa is
the last stage in this great game.
England and France are already
strongly entrenched in Africa; Eng
land from Cape Colony northward and
from Egypt southwark; and France in
her great African empire of the north
vast French area, including Sahara,
was at first derided, and Lord Sails
bury referred to the French posses
sions as the second greatest in Africa
chiefly sand" But with the coloniz-
ing of Algiers and much of the ada
cent country, unknown riches have
been developed and an African empire
really worthy of the name has gradu-
ally developed Seeing this, Italy has
more recently gained a foothold in
Tripoli, thus completing the European
occupation of the Mediterranean fringe
Of Africa from the French on the west
to the British in the east Incidental
", too, this European occupation of
the Mediterranean fringe, gives Eu-
ropean circuit of the whole Mediter-
ranean. with Britain posted at its two
gateways, Gibraltar and Suez and mid
way at Malta.

Worlds Greatest Rink.

The largest skating rink in Europe,
measuring about $4,000 square yards,
is at Davos, in the canton of the Girl
sons, Switzerland, where all the great
international skating competitions take
place. 1t is generally open from the
third week in November until the mid
die Of March, and the climatic condi-
tons prevailing at that altitude of s.
200 feet are so excellent that 1t is in
deed an exception when the rink has
ever to be closed during this period
A considerable staff of men is en-
ployed to maintain the rink in order
The ice is flooded every night and is
scraped and polished in the morning
with almost the same care that glass
workers bestow upon plate glass.

there to Miss Ann Kennedy, May g.,
1854. Two years later the couple came
west, locating in Rock Island, where
he had made his home since. When
Mr.. Feeley first arrived here he opened
small shoe repair shop on lower
Fourth avenue, which he conducted for
several months.
The same year he was appointed as "a
member of the Rock Island police force
under Mayor Eggelston. Mr. Feeley
served as a member of the department
for % years continuously, retiring at
the age Of 60 years. Although he never
attained higher rank than patrolman
in all those years he left the depart
ment with a creditable record and one
that any man might be proud of. At
that time Rock Island was little more
than a village and the force was small
and the equipment inadequate to that
of present day demands. One of the
older men who served with Mr.. Feeley
at that time was John Brennan. Mr.
Brennan still resides in Rock Island.
Wife Survives Him.
Since Mr.. Feeley retired in 1881 he
had not been engaged in active work
and lived quietly at his modest home

Telegraphic advices today tell Of the
receipt Wednesday at Columbus, n. M,
of several carloads Of ammunition from

there have been rumOrs of many big
shipments from the arsenal to the

Well Expanded Lungs Not Enough.

Pure blood is indispensable to the health
and strength of the lungs. The delicate struc-
ture of these organs makes it necessary.
When the blood is impure the lungs lose their
tone. and even if they are permitted to ex-
pand freely. they have not the power fully to
perform their important work. The fact is,
there is nothing more necessary in our physic-
al economy than pure blood-the kind of
blood that Hoods SarsaparilIa makes. This
medicine is the good old reliable family rem
edy for diseases of the blood, scrofula. rheu-
matism, catarrh. and low or run down condi-

"FRUIT.A.TIVES"?
The Simple Juices Of Apples, Oranges, Figs
and Prunes Transformed Into A Medicine
Which Relieves All Diseases Of Stomach,
Liver, Kidneys and Skin.

The value of fruit juices in preventing and relieving
disease, has been recognized for centuries.
The objections using fresh fruit cure for disease
are 1st. the high cost of fruit particularly in winter:
2nd the difficulty of eating enough fruit to do any
permanent good. Some years ago, however, prominent
English physician i'll Ottawa, Canada began series Of
experiments in effort to find practical and
economical way to utilize the valuable medicinal properties
of fruit.

Robert ]. Alley presided at the meeting,
which was preceded by banquet.

Mr.. Cocord was the speaker at the
Chapel exercise, University of Maine,
Wednesday morning, Oct. 4th, speaking
of the need of giving proper attention to
the much neglected subject of Enthusi-
asm. He said. in part: People are prone
to take enthusiasm as matter of course,
ard refuse to give it proper place in our
lives. The hustle and rush of life is not
enthusiasm at all, but rather, nerves.
That there is less enthusiasm in the world
today than there was fifty or hundred
years ago is certain, though neglected
fact. Efficiency is the thing that has
been substituted for the old enthusiasm
which used to mean so much. Mr.. Col
cord does not agree to the changes that
have been made in the old order of things.
AS it is today each of US is but small
cog in a great machine that is grinding
out something for the other fellow. No
one OF US should allow himself to be made
a cog In any mans wheel. In some OBJ
scure way the real things in life are being
obscured. The tendency today is toward
efficiency, but efficiency does not take
the place of character.
Mr.. Colcord's plea throughout was for
the simpler things in life. 1t is neces1
sary TO take the world as We find 1t, but
our duty here is not accomplished It we
leave things as we find them. 1t is not
necessary to deal entirely in money, how
ever, but with the elements of produc-
tions. There are few men who are really
lazy, they simply lack interest jill What
they do, they lack enthusiasm. If we
believe in life, and are willing to give
ourselves to the consummatlon of deli
mite character, then we will create en-
thusii SIN, and may play the game
of life to the end
