She gave her all: upon her peace
what time
The crew of hell was looscd, an
obscene host
That raped and ravaged, until
men almost
Lost faith i'm God, so hideous was
the crime.
10 heights undrcamed-of did the
horror climb.
AS the Hun hacked his way from
hill tu coast.
She bowed her head. and smiling
met the best
or Attila with fnrtitudc sublime.
Though now her strength be brok
en by the blow
Or wanton rage. and blood the
beauty mars
OF her fair face behind its prison
bars.
Still has her agony these fruits
to show;
Her honor stainless as the driven
snow,
Her glory everlasting as the stars.

It is said that the Hungarian

will not readily sacrifice such a

TALKED ABOUT OUR OFFENCES

New York, March Ex-senator
Elihu Root, Senator Henry Cabot
Lodge, Robert Bacon, Major General
Leonard Wood and Theodore Roose-
welt had luncheon together at Mr. Ba-
cons home, / Park avenue today
Behind the mere record of the lunch
ing together of these men turks a por-
tentous political significance. 1t
means the meeting of Root and Roose-
welt for the first time since the Re
publicans and Progressiyes fell apart
in 1912, and it strengthens the grow
ing belief that the Republicans, as well
as the Progressives, will nominate
Colonel Roosevelt for president this
year.
This is the way Colonel Roosevelt
explained the meal
I've been lunching at Mr. 3acon's
house with Mr.. Root, Senator Lodge
and General Wood Mr.. Bacon is the
head of various defence organizations
and is bringing them together. He

from Washington so that could meet
him, Mr.. Root and General Wood, to
talk over the question Of preparedness
Tor self-denfense and as means of Sc
curing the peace and honor Of this
country, and to consider how best to
proceed to waken all our citizens to
the vital need Of this movement for
national preparedness
The Colonel stopped right there, but
only for a moment. Then genial
CLEAN came to his eye and he added

This was the first public intimation
that Senator Root and Colonel Roose-
welt would ever come together again
% end the political estrangement
which followed on the split of the Re
publican party in 1912.
Whether the raison de'etre was pre-
| paredness or politics did not need to
Je set forth in so many words, for the
conference only shed more light on
the fight that Colonel Roosevelt is go
ing to make to stir up the country to
