THE NEGRO WRITES BACK,

The writer is in receipt of a let
teer from his esteemed friend, H.
L. Talbert, deputy sheriff of Coaho-
ma County, which states that Harry
Harold, colored, who went from Gre
NADIA to Clarksdale to work as por-
ter in the Elks club, is now in the
army camp at Newport, Va, and that
he writes to some of them at Clarks-
dale quite frequently. Mr.. Talbert
evidently thinks quite well of this
negro and suggests that one "can see
what a negro can do who tries to do"
When Harry left Clarksdale, Mr..
Talbert gave him a letter to the
adjutant. The lesson is a good one
and should be studied with profit by
the colored ace generally.

Entente Troops Firm
 on Macedonian Front

London, June 19-No impeachment is being placed in the way of the En- tente troops that have been landed in Thessa1y. With the departure of former King Constantine from Greece the people are declared to, be more friendly to the Allied cause. They are placing their adherence in the Provi- sional government of Eleutherios Venizelos, the former Premier.
 Although on the eastern wing of the Macedonian front the British, as announced from Sofia, have burned and given up numerous villages, they are holding tightly to the bridgehead position on the bank of the River Struma, in the Lake Tahinos-Batkovo sector, northeast of Salonica.
 Tonight's official French statement received here from Paris declares:
 ''The movements of our troops in Thessaly- continue to be carried out without difficulty All the conimunes in the region of Larissa and iVole have adhered spontaneously to the veni- zelos government and have installed new civil authorities.
 British aviators successfully bom- barded the Tumba railway station, twelve kilometres (about seven and a half miles) from Seres, and several enemy munitions depots. There was restricted artillery activity along the whole front"
 A despatch from Geneva says that Constantine may not stop at Lugano as it had been reported he would do, but go direct to Baden-Baden, the German health resort.

DAUGHTER SAVES
 OLD MAN FROM DEATH IN FLAMES
Clothing of Father Ablaze, Black Rock Woman paats
 Out Fire.

Courageously risking her own 1ife Miss Augusta Anderson, 26 years, of 121 Warehouse street, Black Rock, saved her father, Gustave Anderson, 81 years, from being burned to death in their home at 1:30 o'clock this morning.
 Anderson, who is somewhat feeble, arose from his bed and attempted to light the gas range in the kitchen. In some manner his clothing became tgnited and his body was soon envel- oped in flames.
 The girl, who was sleeping was reused from her bed and ran to the aid of her parents. Her attempts to beat out the flames with her hands were unsuccessful and she finally managed to smother the burning clothing with wraps hurried1y pulled from closets in the house. These she placed about her father and rolling him on the floor, probably saved his life.
 pr. s I. Aranki of the emergency hospital was called to the scene and removed Anderson, who was severely burned on the arms, legs and trunk to the Bridgeport hospital. His con- dition this noon was reported as com -fortabIe. !, Miss Anderson's hands were burned and Dr. Aranki dressed them before leaving the house. She was not talk en to hospital.

RUSSIAN PEACE
 WOULD BE WAR
 AGAINST ALLIES
Agreement With Germany
 Will Destroy Results of Revolution

Petrograd, June 19-The desire to align Russia's international program with that of her, allies as quickly as possible was expressed at yesterdays session of the Pan-Russian Congress of all Councils of Workmens' and Sol diers' Delegates by M Tseretelli, Min ister of Posts and Telegraphs.
 He coupled this expression with sharp repudiation of any idea of a separate peace for Russia. A separate peace is, in fact, possible. Such a peace would bring Russia into a new war on the side of the German coali- ton and would mean, leaving one coalition only to enter into another.
 Minister Tseretelli described to the Congress that steps taken by the gov ernment for the summoning of an inter-allied conference for revision of the various treaties, exclusive of the London agreement engaging the allies not to conclude a separate peace. After speaking in support of the work of Minister of War Kerensky, he urged renewed activity by the army. He said:
 When the country finds itself men, acedr by an attack from without, it is the duty of the revolutionary army to be ready, of it's own accord, to ad- vance. The inactivity on our front has not consolidated the revolution, but, on the contrary, has enfeeb1ed it."
 We must prove to the 1ncerna- tions1e," said the War Minister. "that we are not a negligible quantity and that we are possessed of a determina- ton which will not allow itself to be dominated by an isolated, unorganiz- ed group"
 M. Kerensky gave an account of his visit to the front and the favorable impressions he had brought back. He concluded with a defense of his acts so energetic and convincing that the entire Congress, with the exception of the. Maximalists, broke into pro- longed applause.

 she declared there was no scratch done. She said she had struck her, husband twice. The lawyer did not ask her why she did it.
 On her directsexamination Mrs. Hus-i ted claimed her husband had called her an immoral woman. Attorney Fitzgerald wanted to know if. this wasn't mentioned when Hustedl was talking about women who lived ille-i gally with men. Mrs Husted claim. ed she did not say she would rather live in the irregular way than be marrssd to him. What she did say, she insisted. was that it would be bet ter, to live with man without the benefit of a marriage ceremony than with somebody who abused her. ; Mrs. Husted is good looking, light haired girl in the early twenties. She was dressed in a simple blue suit and her hat was a plain black piece of millinery. She was very calm while on the stand, despite the grilnng cross examination to which she was sub- jected. Even when Attorney Fftz- gerald produced the package of let ters and asked her to identify the writing she did not become Mustered. She admitted one was in Conroy's hand writing but claimed 1t had never reached her.

 About two weeks after her mar riage, Mrs. Husted conf1ded to her husband that she was ill.,, He pro- cured some medicine which she took. The medicine made her so i'll she had to stop taking it, the witness alleged. On cross examination Attorney Fitz- gerald asked if she hadn't taken this medicine before and Mrs. Husted de- nied it. She didn't tell Miss Birks to get the old prescription filled, she insisted.
 Then the line of inquiry changed to the. time she accepted $20 ffom a man in New Haven. She said the individual had been a customer at her manicure table. Husted made a admitted.
 Shortly after their marriage the couple went to live with Husted's s parents, wealthy Greenwich residents. She declared the family treated her coldly and in August of the same year she left Greenwich. She admitted she had sometimes refused to meet company at the Husted home because she was sick but denied saying to her husband T don't give a - for your company"

 ''Then you do not intend to take grain from the farmers bins?" asked Senator Gore.
 "No," replied MT Hoover. He add ed that he did not intend to enforce the section authorizing the govern ment to take charge of patents and fromulae.
 Do you desire any such power ?" asked Senator Reed.
 "No, I do not" replied MT. Hoover, adding 'I do not think any of this power would be assumed except when vttally needed, in order to correct ex- isting evils"
 Mr. Hoover also said the food ad- min:stration had no desire to regulate consumption of food as is done abroad, saying that would be left to the voluntary will of the people.
 Senator Gore askedt MT. Hoover whether he would deny to the farmer the right to judge the amount of crops he should grow.
 eff the government guarantees a minimum. price," MT. Hoover replied. Eve might not get the beneficial re- suits for the farmer unless we also have the power to limit imports"
 SAA> should be amended to give farmers the right to determine their own pro dactions
 We don't propose to go to the ex- tent of fixing consumers rations," MT. Hoover added, except as to hotels, restaurants, etc, regarding the amount of bread portions to be serv- ed and the like. England did fool ish thing in trying to fix maximum prices a failure wherever tried" Do you contend that under the bill you can say to Senator Reed. for instance that he shall eat a soup bone or a steak on certain days?" asked Senator Kenyon. T don't think we have any such right nor should we have it, MT. Hoover replied emphatically. But we should have the right to suggest l the use of a soup bone a day and sec | whether we can reach any agreement voluntarily
 Senator Reed insisted that the leg | islation is not needed to effect such 1 voluntary arrangements, but MT | Hoover said a law should authorize 1 the food administration to that end
