THE OCCUPATION.

It took more than steam roller
 to suppress T. R. But he has been
 eventually suppressed. He cannot
 come back and he knows it. Strong
 as he may be with the country he fell flat before the machine. And the machine insisted upon rolling over him with all the ruthlessness of a juggernaut. From him maybe on account of his former greatness, future leaders may take wise coun- sel; they may consult him as one of experience and shifty, but not as the final word.
 The desperate effort co rehabill- tate himself with the republican party is almost tragic in it's pathos or pathetic in it's tragedy. Writers, publicity agents all have done their best, but humpty dumpty couldn't be put back again with all the kings horses and all the kings men.
 Truly there is a bitter aftermath in the intoxication of gratified poll tical ambitions, and it is the lot O. T. R. to drain that bitter cup to the dregs.
 In vain he rambled the world with Joves thunderbolts in each hand and a voice of energy shouting the gospel according to Roosevelt; others have stolen the thunder and the gospel is subjected to the erc- sive influence of higher criticism according to the machine rule die tated by Wall St. Roosevelt finds that those whom he antagonized in their political imperialism have longer memories and more vindic- tive minds than he gave them credit for.

THE VOICE IN THE WILDERNESS

The voice in the Wilderness that's one John c. Havemcycr's Ana although it found expression in the New York Evening Post, it is not likely to affect conditions.
 He asked and discussed "Is Pre- paredness for War Sensible or Con- sistent with Bible Teaching? Ana he answered in the negative.
 This is his fnality "In conclusion l will only say that the proposition presented to the American people is one which wholly ignores God, is infidel in it's spirit, assumes there is no eternity to be considered, no further accountability, no deceitful- fitness above all things to be re- moved, and no prayer and divine leadership required".
 Speaking as a completely impart- al critic of this judgment, it can be said that Havemeyer is unquestion- ably correct If those people who call themselves Christian believed in Christ and believed in the omn,- potence of God, If they believed that God was all loving, and merci- ful, and all powerful, if they be- lieved that his supreme Justice would prevent barborous injustice if they believed in the efficacy ot rrayer and placed their trust tn Gcd then they would readily see that preparedness in itself is inh- del in spirit. But, the people while pretending to believe offer only q lip service There is not now anc for centuries has been no real faith either in God or in christianity. h. stead there is the trust in the om- impotence of material force-in the right of might and the skeptic's sheer that God fights on the side O. the biggest guns and the largest battalions.
 As a matter of fact this is the most hypocritical age that the world has ever faced. The world places its confidence in big guns and sub marines end battleships and con- scription and prctends to believe ill the justice, mercy love and omnipo- tenco of God
 It's Q poor sort of pagenism that offers sacrifice to estimulate courage when convictions Ire lacking. But that's the condition today.
 Very clearly if a person i3 sincere in the belief in the AtonemenJ and in God Almighty providence, that person will not give three whoops for all the militery might in the world. They will be convinced that prayer and suppl:cation and indi- vidual virtue will protect them be- fore God and man. That's the creed they affect today and that's the creed they are taught. But they have quite other notions. They believe in intuition factories, in compulsory military service, in big guns and big ger navies: God and their religious creed cuts no ice in the matter at all.
 We don't know how the religion ists get around this paradox; but they do. Not only that but when victories come through big guns and shells and asphyxiating gases and battleships and submarines, they thank God for his work. IT organism of ancient times had any thing on this, we have to be shown. Faith-yes, faith enough in stand ing armies and powerful artillery.

 Dogs Blood Leaks.
 A literal case of broken heart'' has been discovered in Norwalk by Veterinary Frank L. Olmstead. The peculiar circumstance came to the attention of pr.

The doctor performed an op- eration and found that, due to a leak age in the lower valve of the heart, the blood of the dog had dripped grad ually out of the heart. and found it's way into the diaphragm, where pr. 01nstead found over four quarts of blood The dogs heart was soft and f1abby, instead of 6 hard texture, as is the case when the heart is healthy. Dr. Olmstead said the leakage, which may affect a. human being as well may have been caused by strain.

.VERDUN'S MAYOR
 TAKES REFUGE IN CELLARS OF CITY
Customs Agent Docs Cooking for Officials During Bonn
 bardment.

Verdun, France, April 20-The mayor of Verdun spent the early days of the bo1nbardnent in the cellars of the town hall. where he conducted of >ficiaI business as usual undeterred by the roar of guns and the noise of fall ing masonry. \The mayor was assisted by seven of the municipal officials, and the chief customs agent did the cook ing for the party.
 The mayors favorite story of those trying days is an incident of a would be bridegroom and his wedding feast.
 ''It was on Feb. 26,'' says the mayor, that a railway worker who had been rnobilized in the Voesges came to us in the town hall cellar while the bon4- bardment was proceeding at its high est pitch.
 '' Well, my friend I asked. what can we do for you?'
 T have come to get married,' he replied.
 :" 'Marriedi' asked in amazement looking out of a grating at a cloud ot dust just thrown up by a small she'll
 ss Certainly he went on. The bans have been published, the date fixed for today, and I have obtained per mission from the military authorities to get married. But I cannot find my fance.'
 f..we made inquiries and learned that the young woman had fled with the rest of the population The fu- t1re husband had brought a fine sup ply of provisions and wine for the wedding feast. As the shells continued to fall, we prevailed upon him to re- main with us for three days while he shared all his good things with us.''

INDIANS WELCOME PLAN TO ABOLISH
 ADVENTURE SYSTEM
Governments Announcement Greeted With Pleasure
 By Subjects.

Delhi, India, April 20.-The Govern ment's announcement that it intends
 to abolish the system of Indian i'm dentured labor, made through the
 Viceroy a few days ago, has been re-
 ceived with great satisfaction through out India The announcement applies to the large shipments of coolie labor
 which are annually sent to Jamaica, ll17z1;nidad, British Guiana, Fiji, and Dutch Guiana
 Indian feeling on the subject has for many years condemned the indenture system. No arguments as to it's pos sible economic advantages weighed
 against the feeling of educated In- dians that it degraded India in the
 eyes of the world. Recent reports
 showing the social degeneration caus- ed by the paucity of women emil grating and also the number of sui
 cides among the cooIies have caused
 a painful impression.
 Students of Indian conditions have long maintained that there is abun
 dant scope in India for all available labor. and emigration Is no longer one of India's necessities. ~ How soon the governments promise
 Of abolition will put into effect is yet a matter of doubt. The Viceroy stat ed that the existing system of recruit ing must be maintained until the new conditions could be worked out and reasonable time had been given the communities which depend on thisl la-
 Dor to adjust themselves to the change.
 NO one who knows anything of In-
 dian sentiment can remain ignorant
 of the deep and genuine feeling to
 which the continuance of the inden-
 ture system has given rise,', said the
 viceroy in his announcement. *Edu-
 cated Indians look on it is slavery or 
 forever and it is a source of deep sat
 isfaction to me that one of the last of fcia1 acts shall have to perform in this country is to tell you that have been able to do something to insure that Indians who desire to work as iaborers. in tropical countries may do so under happier conditions,i and to obtain from His Maiesty's government a promise that in due course the whole system which edueated opinion in In dia- has long regarded as intolerab1e, will be abolished.''
