LET THE WOMEN GET TOGETHER

Rev. FIR. Vielle, of the Franciscan
mission of Tsingchowfu, Shantung,
would like to receive a sponsor for
the dispensary for women he is anX-
ious to open. Scarcely anything
could do more good to the poor
Chinese mothers than this sort of
help. There they could bring their
sick babies and receive for the little
ones the need they often stand badly
in need of. When in danger of
death these infants could also be bap-
tized and sent to heaven instead of
dying pagans.
The small capital of $50 dollars
will establish and fit up a dispensary,
which will be placed in charge Of a
native female catechist. This char
ity should appeal to some of the
women friends of the mission, who
by combining their offerings would
make the good work possible.

You remember he is just thirty-one
days old today. Now the law of Budd-
had commands that every male child.
one lunar month and three DAYS after
his birth, should be brought to the
temple to there receive from the
mouth Of Sakya NUM- the name that
will insure for him all happiness. The
Bona placed in an urn the three
names that I had suggested, and,
drawing out one of them, we found
that it was William Cherry Blossom.
The great Buddha has been mindful of
your desire, and by will of the gods
your son has been named William
Cherry Blossom
But tell me, you little fairy, how
much did you pay for this name cere-
mony, as you call it,"

husband and wife in a state of the

| Wendes' father had died suddenly,
and not having had time to make a

vast estates, it devolved On Henry, the
eldest son, to succeed his father. For
this reason his mother implored him
to return to Germany as soon as pos.

affairs.
| For long time Wendes stood with
the cablegram in his hand, unable to
decide anything, and like one in q

obliged to part from o Fana and the

him agony. Nor, on the other hand

Months of Trial Ahead.

1t is a distressing and oppressive
duty, gentlemen of the Congress, which
I have performed in thus addressing
you. There are, it may be. many
months of fiery trial and sacrifice
ahead of us. 1t is a fearful thing to
lead this great peaceful people into
war, into the most terrible and disas-
trous of all wars, civilization Itself
seeming to be in the balance. But the
right is more precious than peace. and
we shall fight for the things which we
have always carried nearest our hearts,
for democracy. for the right of those
who submit to authority to have a voice
in their own governments. for the
rights and liberties of small nations,
for a universal dominion of right by
such concert of free peoples as shall
bring peace and safety to all nations
and make the world itself at last free.
To such a task we can dedicate, our
lives and our fortunes, everything that
we are and everything that we have,
with the pride of those who know that
that day his come. when America is
privileged to spend her blood and her
might for the principles that gave her
birth and happiness and the peace
which she has treasured. God helping
her, she can do no other.

not by the will of their people. We have
seen the last of neutrality in such cir
cumstances. We are at the beginning of
an age in which it will be insisted that
the same standards OF conduct and of
responsibility for wrong done shall be OBJ
served among nations and their govern
ments that are observed among the in
dividual citizens Of civilized states.
No Quarrel With People.
We have no quarrel with the German
people We have no feeling towards
them but one of sympathy and friendship
1t was not upon their impulse that their
government acted in entering this war
1t was not with their previous knowledge
or approval. 1t was a war determined
upon as wars used to be determined upon
in the old, unhappy days when peoples
were nowhere consulted by their rulers
and wars were provoked and waged in
the interest of dynasties or of little
groups of ambitious men who were ac-
customed to use their fellow men as
pawns and tools. Self governed nations
do not fill their neighbour states with
spies or set the course of intrigue to
bring about some critical posture of af-
fairs which will give them an oppor-
tunity to strike and make conquest.
SVch designs can be successfully worked
out only under cover and where no one
has the right to ask questions Cum
ningly contrived plans of deception or
aggression, carried, it may be, from gen.
Grafton to generation can be worked out
and kept from the light only within the
privacy of courts or behind the careful
ly guarded condolences of a narrow and
privileged class. They are happily i'm
possible where public opinion commands
and insists upon full information con-
corning all the nations affairs
A steadfast concert for peace can
never be maintained except by a part
nership of democratic nations No an
tocratic government could be trusted
to keep faith within it or observe its
covenants. 1t must be a league of hon
our, partnership of opinion. Intrigue
would eat its vitals away: the plottines
of inner circles who could plan what
they would and render account to no
one would be corruption seated at its
very heart. Only free peoples can hold
their purpose and their honour steady
to a common end and prefer the inter
ests of mankind to any narrow inter-
est of their own.
Does not every American feel that
assurance has been added to our hone
for the future peace of the world by
the wonderful and heartenins things
that have been happening within the
last few weeks in Russia? Russia was
known by those who knew its best to
have been always in fact democratic
at heart, in all the vital habits of hsr
thought. in all the intimate relation
ships of her people that spoke their
natural instinct, their habitual attitude
toward life. The autocracy that
crowned the summit of her political
structure, long as it had stood and
terrible as was the reality of its power,
was not in fact Russian in origin, char
acter or purpose; and now it has been
shaken off and the great, generous
Russian people have been added in all
their anive majesty and might to the
forces that are fighting for freedom in
the world. for justice. and for peace.

committee.
The resolution would authorize

Whereas the recent course of the
imperial German government is. in
fact, nothing less than war against the
government and people of the United
States
Resolved. by the Senate and House
of Representatives of the United States

the state of belligerency between the
United States and the imperial German
government, which has thus been

Senator Henry Cabot Lodge of
Massachusetts, was attacked by a
small group of pacifsts from Dor
chester, Mass, in the corridor
outside his office at the Capitol
today. Blows were struck and
blood was spilled, but it was the
blood of the pacifsts.
The chief assailant of Senator
Lodge was Alexander Bannwart,
a young man, and husky. He
later was arrested on a warrant
charging him with assault.
Senator Lands Smashing Blow.
Senator Lodge received a blow which
bruised his face slightly, and he him
self sent smashing blow into Bann-
warts face, which knocked him back.
Bannwart struck at the senator again.
and Senator Lodge was forced back
against the wall, the other pacifists
joining in the fight, which then became
general
Senator Lodges clerks rushed out Of
his Office to his defense, and David b.
Herman of 439 10th street, an employe
of the Western Union, waded into
Bannwart. There was a free for all
fight for a few seconds, during which
Bannwart was pretty badly beaten up.
Ward Davies. secretary of the chamber
of commerce at Casa Grande. Ariz. also
mixed in the fray and planted a fist in
Bannwart's eye before he himself was
knocked down in the general rush. Davies
said that he was passing along the cor,
ridor when he saw Bannwart strike Sem
ator Lodge.
It's lucky thing 1 didn't have my gun
with me- sad Davies .or it would have
been a case for the undertaken"
Bannwart's followers who took part in
the fight disappeared before the police
arrived and took Bannwart>t to the guard
room of the Capitol.
Called at Senator's Office.
The pacifsts gathered outside of
Senator Lodges office about II O'Clock
this morning. Three cards were sent in,
including that of Bannwart, and those
of Rev Paul Harris Drake. pastor of
Christ Church. Dorchester. Mass. and
Mrs. Anna Mag Peabody of 10 Hilliard
street Boston. Alexander Bannwarts
card bore the address 33S Washington
street, Boston
1t is Senator Lodges custom, when a
large party calls on him, to go into the
corridor to see them, owing to the fact
that his office is small, and he followed
this custom today. The pacifists asked
the attitude of Senator Lodge on the
international situation.
He replied that if the President
should ask for declaration of war, he
would vote for one
Bannwart did most of the talking for
the pacifists He demonstrated with
Senator Lodge and said that his con-
sti:uents were opposed to war. Senator
Lodge said he differed with the pacif-
lists in that connection. The pacifsts
declared that war was cowardly
National degeneracy and cowardice
are worse than war;" Senator Lodge an
swered Il regret that j cannot agree
with your position, but L must do my
duty as | see it,
Senator Lodge. determining to close
the interview, was backing toward
the door of his office.
Short and Ugly Term Used.
Bannwart. after the fight, declared
that at this moment Senator Lodge
ANY one who is a pacifist at time
like this is coward
To this Bannwart retorted: ANY
1ne that wants to go to war Is q
coward.
Senator Lodge denies this CONVERSE
ion and says that Bannwart called
aim n coward.
You are a liar" the senator tn
stantly responded. stopping W - 4.

WON'T ABANDON BLOCKADE
Germany Replies to Declaration Made
by Brazil.

Rio Janeiro, Feb. 25.-Brazil's dec
laration to Germany that she does
not recognize the submarine blockade
and leaving with Germany the re-
sponsibility for all acts from which
Brazilian merchant marine may suf-
fer in violation of international law,
has elected from Germany a state
ment that the blockade. will not be
abandoned. 1t is announced officially
that the German foreign office has
declared to the Brazilian minister in
Berlin that it regrets neutral inter-
ests should suffer on account of mil
itary measures. Nevertheless Ger
many has reported the Interchangeable
determination to maintain the sub
marine blockade, to abandon, which
would involve national humiliation.
In case Of the loss Of Brazilian
ships the German Government, the
foreign Office says, will suggest diplo-
matte Investigations.
