AUSTRIANS GROW
WEARY OF THEIR
PART IN BATTLING
Want to Be Assured of Lasting
Peace When War Comes
to End

Amsterdam, April 2O.--A semi
official dispatch from Vienna says
Emperor Charles has granted an au-
dience to leaders of the German party
in Austria. Herr Weisskerchner,
upper burgomaster of Vienna, spoke
of the loyalty of the Germans, who,
he said, would do everything to pro-
cure for Parliament, which must be
summoned quickly, the capacity and
opportunity to do it's proper work. He
added:
But we cannot suppress our deep
apprehension that owing to urgent
reasons peremptory necessities of
state which concern the whole of
Austria have been relegated to the
background" The speaker entreated
the Emperor to take these necessities
of state into consideration and by ac-
cepting the view of the German party,
give us the possibility of dissipating
the fears which are arising among the
population.
Condition Serious
"The people of Austria" he con-
tinued, hope that the heavy sacrifices
of this unparallel struggle which was
forced upon us for the honor and eX-
istence of our fatherland, will be rec
ompensed by reasonable peace
which we most thankfully will accept
from Your Majesty's hand with the
promise that the German people will
cooperate loyalty and steadfastly in
works of peace to the glory and great
ness of Austria"
Emperor Charles replied:
Il assure you that l fully appreci-
ate the seriousness and actuality OF
your political efforts. Germans in
Austria may be assured that they pos
sess my confidence.
ut is my intention to summon Par
lament shortly. Revival of Parlia-
mentary life at this moment. after
years of suspension. is of extraordi-
nary Importance"

Patriotic Canine Series
HEEDS HIS COUNTRY'S CALI

The fidelity of Uncle Sam towards
the allies is further witnessed by the
fact that small fox terrier, Buster"
residing at Nineteenth and Market
streets, has assumed a friendly atti-
tude toward others of his kind. Pre-
GRAPH Buster did not know that his
President and his country needed
him. He always assumed an eXcep-
tionally dogmatic and disrespectful at
titude toward other canines but, now,
after learning that we also are fight
ing the Kaiser, Buster INDUCES in a
profuse wagging of the tail whenever
he chances to meet a French poodle
or English bulldog. Should a dachs-
hund come into view, he barks fe-
rociously. He's too small to make an
attack.

In the Champagne notably near
