Plans for raising more funds for the
reconstruction work and a discussion
Of how to meet the problems brought
up by the draft law, were the more i'm
portant features of the special meet
ing OF the American Friends Service
Committee which just closed in Phila-
delphia-
w. G.. Woodward represented Ind
lana Friends.
1--WE do not intend to dictate to the
boys what they shall do. We shall lay
down the principles and let them act
as they think is right" Woodward said.
The Friends are expecting the war
department to allow drafted members
to serve in the reconstruction move
ment instead Of non-com blatant service.
Most Of the units which were organized
are now in France. A group of fifty
sailed from New York last Tuesday,
according to Woodward.

Nicklas will officiate.
Many OF Richmond's leading busi-
ness and professional men were pupils
of Maiers during the thirty.two years
he taught IN st. Johns parochial
school.
After leaving the parochial school
Mr.. and Mrs. Mater had charge Of the
Wernle Orphans Home for seven
years, which was one Of the most pros.
porous periods in the life Of the home.
Born In Germany.
Mr.. Mater was born in Moess1ngen.
in the province of Wuerttemberg.
Germany. October 6. 1885. When boy
OF seventeen years he came to this
country with his mother, his father
having died the year before. George
was the only child.
After living in Covfngton, Ohio, with
an only aunt. young Maier came to
Richmond in 1852. where he became
teacher in the st. Johns parochial
school. For period Of seven years,
until the school was discontinued for
a year, he was the only instructor His
first year there were thirty.five pupils
in the school. After that there were
between ninety and q hundred. Being
the only instructor he had big task
in teaching that number.
During the year that st. Johns had
no school Mr.. Maier taught German
in the First ward building under Su-
perintendent Mcneil, also giving pri-
vate instructions in German to the
thirteen teachers after hours. OF these
teachers all are dead but one.
Moved to Fort Wayne.
When the school was resumed the
following year he returned as only
instructor until 1895. when he resign
ed and moved to Fort Wayne. He and
his wife stayed there only year, re.
turning to Richmond.
For seven years he was superintend-
ent Of the Wernle Orphans home. His
administration was a success and the
young persons who were under the in
fluence Of Mr.. and Mrs. Maier, still
hold the highest regard for them.
Former inmates still refer to them
as father and mother" Two years
after he resigned the trustees Of the
home had trouble in getting a super.
intendent so Mr.. Maier took 1t for an.
other year.

Autumn

Some people feel that autumn days
are hardly worth a word of praise be-
cause the trees get brown and bare and
nipping frost is in the air. But, for
my part, like the fall. It doesn't
make me sad at all. 1t brings relief
from summer heat and makes the
chestnuts ripe and sweet. 1 think that
fall IL like the time Of life when man
is at his prime and when the fruits
Of youthful heat and energy are Rt his
feet, and so It makes me full of cheer
TO see the harvest season here. Be-
sides, might as we'll admit another
cause for liking it-for soon we'll have
our buckwheat cakes. the fluffy kind
that mother bakes, piled UP in dozens
on the plates. Oh, let me pause and
mediate upon the toothsome, whole
some thought. for, even though you
think ought to dwell on subjects
more sublime, that's why like the
autumn time. WILL MOORE.

MONEY TO DEFEND TRIMBLE.
House Sets Aside Fund to Combat
Suit of Prioleau.

Washington, Dec. 16.-Aaron Prio-
leau, the South Carolina negro who
has caused so much trouble in the
lower congressional districts of the
State by making unsuccessful efforts
for the last Is years to get into con-
gress and by urging for many years
that other negroes do likewise, is still
making trouble in Washington. About
two weeks ago he filed suit against
South Trimble, clerk of the house, for
$4,000 alleged damages, claiming
that Trimble did not file his last con-
test papers and now the house has
just appropriated $500 for counsel
fees to defend Trimble. Prioleau
seems to be obsessed with the idea
that the First district place is his
and that Congressman Whaley holds
it illegally as he thinks George Le-
care did, who was in the house before
Mr.. Whaley.

VENICE WELL PROTECTED.
NILES OF MARSH KEEP HUNS
FROM "QUEEN OF SEA-"
Many Peasants Homeless, but tno
Sacrifice Has Been Worth :.
All the Trouble.

Countless square miles of desolate
marsh lands, interspersed and cut
into numberless islands by sluggish
Iagoons and land inundated to the
depth of several feet, line after line
of stationary batteries of guns three
to fifteen inches in calibre and Deep
mpddv trenches filled with men de-
termined that the enemy shall not
advance any further-such are the
impressive and apparently Wellnlgn
unassailable defenses of Venice.
The character of the warfare all
along ithe lower Piave line and par
ticularly the methods employed TO
defend the queen Of the seas from
the Austro-German invasion un-
doubtedly are unique even IN tnls
war of novelties. Nature has plac-
ed a. barrier in the path of the in
gader apparently more insurmount-
able even than the mountains across
which the enemy has fought his way
and these natural obstacles have been
fortified as probably no other place
in Europe.
Perfect Camoufage.
Human ingenuity has outdone itself
to provide floating fortresses armed
with huge guns which, camoufiaged
and concealed cunningly from point
to point, never offering a mark for
the invaders and yet always able to
lombard the enemy at he. attempts
nightly to build pontoon bridges
across the river Piave.
Skilled engineers have ferreted out
every bit of solid mainland in the
vast swampy area north of Venice
where batteries, large and small, &C
cording to the distance from the
Austrian lines, have been established
They never relax their vigilance. The
same engineers have cut away the
dikes that formerly controlled the
water to irrigate the fertile Italian
plains, creating vast lake.
Homeless Peasants.
The inundation has made a thou
sand peasants homeless, but it pre-
sents an almost insurmountable
barrier to the Austrian arti1ler,

Austrians to steal across unnoticed
Finally in addition to the foremos

guns to be effective.
At Capo Silo the correspondent
temporarily left the naval escort for
military escort, so as to inspect
the infantry positions, which were
indescribably muddy and bleak.
They bisect the ruins Of the towns,
the houses of which have been de-
stroyed by the Austrian artillery.
The infantry men were cheerful and
disreguardful of the discomforts,
and were busy lettering these condi-
tions, Notwithstanding the unceasing
whine of Austrian shells.
Later the press boat again plough
ed through seemingly endless mazes
of canals meeting with monitors, new
and cunningly located batteries,
which as the afternoon approached,
began to get into activity, especially
against airplanes that were circling
about. The canals and lagoons were
resounding with the explosions of
shells of all calibres as the corre-
spondents' boat steamed off to the
huge shore batteries that gave the
final touch to the defenses of Venice.
The guns here made. even those on
the biggest monitors look like play
things.
To make the trip complete the cor
respondents were treated to glimpse
of the British monitors which were
in operation in union with those of
the Italians. The sunset had tinged
the waters of Venice to the appear
ance of a sea of blood as the press
boat steamed back into what prob
ably is the best protected city so far
threatened by the war.
