past fifty years or more. His entire
half-century pastorste had been spent
in but three churches. These were

and was educated in England, re-
naming there until the year 1859. He

sion to the West Indies to receive a
grant of Bibles from the British gov
eminent. Captured, he was placed in
prison at Port Lookout for a few
months, but after his release took up
the ministry, entering actively in that
work, and left glorious record. He
is survived by his aged and devoted
wife, two nieces and three nephews,
Miss Alice Howe and Messrs. George
W., William d. and Lawrence Howe
are the surviving Pensacola relatives.
All who knew Rev. Mr.. Jones re-
garded him in the highest esteena.
Really, it is said, no one was more
beloved by all classes Of people than
he, and on all sides following his
death were heard expressions Of sym
pathy and sincere regret.

ALL QUIET ON

VERDUN
q Assoc1ATEp PRESS.

Paris, April 13.-Calm prevailed in
the whole region of Verdun last night,
this mornings official communication
says. Preparation was male by the
Germans for an attack on Hill 304,
but the attack was prevented by the
French from being carried into eff
feet. No other important develop
ments were reported at the front.
The statement follows: "The night
passed quietly in all the Verdun re
gion. A German attack, which was
being prepared yesterday evening
against out positions at Hill No. 304
did not progress to the point Of leav-
ing the trenches. The curtains of fire
maintained by our artillery and the
bombardment from our batteries in a
neighborfng sector directed against
the columns of the enemy assembled
in the wood of Malancourt, apparently
put an end to this maneuver.

RIOTS OCCUR IN MANY PARTS OF
WASHINGTON ANTICIPATED
CRISIS THAT HAS COME

Washington, April 1S.-Adminis-
tration officials made no effort to con-
ceal their feelings that Carranza's ac-
ton might increase the delicacy of
the circumstances under which the
pursuit Of Villa has been conducted.
The outstanding features Of the sit
uation gave evidence that the expedi-
ton has been carried on with a full
realization that objections might
arise, that possibilities have been con-
sidered and probably decision had
been reached as to what steps would
be taken.
Some state department officials con-
fessed that General Carranza's note
was not a surprise.
Counselor Polk confirmed the state.
ment in the note that when he asked
for use of the Mexican railways the
reply was satisfactory" but was cou-
pied with an expression that the Uni
ted States had not awaited final APP
proval of the pending protocol send
ing troops across the border.
It was declared officially, however,
that no formal protest against the
entry of General Pershing's columns
has been previously made by General
Carranza. When the advance troops
crossed at Columbus, it was officially
stated, Carranza general met them
at the border and made no protest.
State department officials took the
view that Carranza's note was not 9
demand for immediate withdrawal
but an invitation to begin negotiation:
to limit their stay.

Startling Admission Is Made by a

London, May 22.-Francis Dyke
Ac)and, financial secretary of the
treasury, speaking in the house of
commons on the agricultural situa-
ton today, made somewhat disturb
ing statement. 1t was imperative,
Mr.. Acland said, that farmers should
drop their prejudice against the en-
pleyment Of female labor. A break
down in home supplies was only
avoidable II the labor situation did
not grow worse.
The danger point of greatly de-
creased production already has been
reached and even as things were 60
ing 1t was now feared that England
could not hope to maintain her pro-
duction on last years level. II more
men were swept into the army from
the farms, she could only escape fam.
inc by diverting to importation OF
foodstuffs ships which are SO urgent
ly needed for the transport of mum
tons.
And, Mr.. Acland, concluded, we
are unable to say whether there will
be ships to divert that way.

WAR PROSPERITY

The American Wooden Company of
Boston and the Arlington Mills, Of
Lawrence, Mass, have announced
that they will pass to their employees
a share of their war order prosper
ity in the shape OF an increase Of ten
per cent in wages. This will affect
25, 900 operatives in the former and
1000 in the latter company.
This increase does not represent
all that the wooden mill operatives
have gained as a result OF the In
creased prosperity growing out OF
the war boom. On the first OF the
year they were granted an increase
of FIVE per cent. Wages in the tex
tile trades are now twenty-five per
cent higher than formerly.
For the first time in It's history
the American Wooden Company paid
in 1915 / IA per cent on its $780,
900 900 OF common stock. In 1914.
under the blight OF the Democratic
Tariff, It paid regular dividend on the
preferred stock out OF surplus, its
earnings not being sufficient.
The European war not only acted
as Protective Tariif on manufacture
ca woolens, but our exports to the
belligerents have increased beyond
all calculations. During the calender
year 1918, we exported manufactures
OF wool to the value Of s4,60G,000. In

Famous Players Adaptation Of
Mary Johnston's Novel

Can there be anything more humil-
lating, more crushing than for an
innocent girl to be forced to sit in
church and be made the subject OF
n scathing, bitter denunciation from
the pulpit? Because of her very UNI
sophistication she has been unwit-
tingly led into compromising situa.
ton and now the accusing finger of
the minister points scornfully at her
as horrible example to the young
girls OF the community!
That Is one of the great scenes IN
the Famous Players Paramount adap-
tation OF Mary Johnston's celebrated
novel, Audrey, adapted for stage pro-
duction by Harriet Ford and T.. F.
Boddington. in which beautiful Paul
inc Frederick is being starred at the
Lyric, Friday only. 1t Is different
role from those which have Won Miss
Frederick her title as the greatest
dramatic actress on the screen. for
Audrey is barefooted girl OF the
woods-a glorious child Of nature,
with never a thought of her physical
charms.
Though Audrey suffers terrible hui
initiation at the hands Of the minis
ter and Of the congregation. she is
at least spared the suffering which
comes to Lord Harvard, her guardian
who is wounded in duel while de-
tending her good name. There Is

Situation In

De Facto Government Confronted by

and Strike

Washington, May 22.-The econo-
mic situation in Mexico is extreme
ly grave, according to official advices
today to the state department. With
the monetary problem already acute
the food shortage in Mexico City and
vicinity continuing without prospect
Of any immediate relief and with the
labor strike extending over virtual
ly all the Mexican railroad lines,
the de facto government is pictured
as facing serious domestic plight.
Consul Letcher, from Chihuahua
City Is en- route to Washington pre-
sumably bringing with him synop-
sis OF the reports Of Ave other con-
suls recently ordered to the border
to talk over conditions with military
officials there.
The department today received fur.
Their advices from Special Agent Rog.
ers at Mexico City telling OF the new
note that was in process of prepare
ton by the de facto government; but
the message threw no light on its
purport. The communication will
be handed to Secretary Lansing by
Elesio Arredondo, ambassador desig.
nate, but the embassy so far, has no
knowledge OF the matter. Mr.. Rog.
ars' last message indicated that the
note had not been sent forward and
might not be sent for day or SO.
While reports as to the domestic
situation of the Carranza govern
ment are gloomy the attitude Of the
Mexican officials towards the Unit
ed States has been described as more
friendly since the border conference
es between General Scott and Obre-
gon. It is believed possible this will
be reflected in the new note although
some officials think It probable that
new request for withdrawal of the
American expeditionary forces will
be included with whatever other pro-
posals General Carranza has to make.
