ALGECIRAS

Algeciras has been mentioned more
than once since the war began almost
three years ago. Not that that sun
baked town has had anything to do
with the conflict, at least not direct
ly, but it was the scene of the memoir
able visit from the Kaiser few years
before the war, when Europe trem-
bled at the approaching clouds Of
war, clouds which were driven away
before they burst. They returned in
1914 and burst with terrible fury
Now, however Algeciras has been
playing the role of the innocent by
stander, who always gets hit. One
day few weeks ago shells began
dropping into the town, as from a blue
sky, so to speak. There were no
aerop1anes or Zeppelins to be seen
and before the bombardment stopped
considerable damage had been done
Investigation later showed that the
shells had been fired by the forts at
Gibraltar at a submarine which fled
into the straits pursued by three
cruisers. The submarine attempted
to escape in the darkness by running
close to the shore. Gibraltar was
notified of the approximate position of
the U-Boat and, in attempting to
reach it with long range guns the
African shore was bombarded Those
were the first and probably will be
the last shells to hit Algeciras during
the war

Germany Questions
Count Won Bernstorf


Amsterdam, June 23.-Unless gov
eminent statement is previously forth
coming, says the Berlin correspondent
of the Weser Zeitung. an explanation
will be requested in the redchstag of
a statement attributed to Count Won
Bernstorff that Germany purposely re-
Trained from taking steps to obtain a
most favored nation treaty with Brazil
out of consideration for the United
States. The former ambassador to
America is credited with saying that
Germany wanted to avoid detrimental
interference with the commercial re-
latfons between North and South
America.
The story has caused lively astonish-
ment in German commercial and in
dustrial circles. seeing North Amer
lean foods enjoy preferential treat
ment from Brazil which is denied to
German imports. The Dusseldorf
chamber of commerce, in cooperation
with other chambers. has decided to
bling the matter before the foreign and
home departments.

ANNIVERSARY OF BIRTH
OF HENRY WARD BEECHER

Henry Ward Beecher, most eloquent
of American clergymen, was born in
Litchf1e1d, Conn, 4 04 years ago today
Love was the keynote of his life. His
affection embraced all humanity, re-
CARELESS Of race, color or creed. His
liberality is exemplified in his life,
long friendship with Robert Ingersoll,
a man whose religious views were dia-
metrically opposed to his own. A
fitting memorial to Henry Ward
Beecher stands in Brooklyn, N. Y. It
is in the form Of an institution which
embraces all the best features of the
Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C.. A. Brook
lyn's Beecher Memorial includes club
rooms. a library, gymnasium, swim
ming pool and class rooms for giving
instructions in bookkeeping, steno-
graphy, dressmaking, millinery and
other trades and arts. In addition
there is Beecher Museum, contain
ing relics of the great clergyman. His
pulpit, chairs and other articles are
herep reserved for posterity. Beecher's
career as editor, author, lecturer and
abolitionist as well as preacher is
known to all English-speaking peo-
pies. Here are some of the. gems of
wit and wisdom for which he is ia
nous: Generosity is the militia that
enlists for three months, while benev-
olence is the regular force that enlists
for the war.-He who is false to pres
ent duty breaks a thread in the loom,
and will find a flaw when he-may have
forgotten the cause.-The Anglo
Saxon carries self government and
self development with him wherever
he goes

FRENCH FLEET IS
BIGGER ONE Than
BEFORE The WAR
Government to Centralize
Work Of Increasing Mer-
chant Marine.

Paris. June 23-The resolution
adopted by the chamber of deputies
calling for the work of increasing the
French merchant marine to be placed
under the control of one department
was accepted by the government. The
resolution, signed by "A members OF
the merchant marine committee. In
'vited the government to centra1ize the
work of building, buying and charter
ing merchant ships. a task that has
been up to the present divided among
several ministers
Louis Nail, under secretary for the
merchant marine, answering questions,
said the French merchant feet was
$500, 900 tons at the beginning of the
war and since that time had lost $780,
GOO tons, 460, 900 by acts of war. Dur
ing the same period $4,000 tons had
been built or bought and another no.,
600 was in the stocks, SO that the fleet
was actually greater now than before
the war.
Secretary Nail then pointed out that
Germany had lost 2,5o0,000 tons, SO
per cent. of its entire fleet, and declar-
ed that reports that Germany was
building hundreds of ships were mere
bluff.

INTENSE HEAT IS
IMPERILLINC ALL
GERMAN CROPS
Fruit and Vegetable Yield
Disappointing Many
Cities Starving.

Copenhagen. June 23-The period
reports from Berlin, over the greater
part of Germany, the only exception
| being in the western part of the
country The drouth in Denmark has
been broken by heavy and prolonged
rains.
| Berlin on Wednesday experienced
heat exceeded only three times in 70
] years, and then in mid-July. Very
| little rain has fallen anywhere in Ger
many, and the Berlin Tageblatt is in
| formed that there appear to be slight
prospects of a change.
Extension of forest fires is reported
in various parts of Germany because
of the continued drought and SOL
diers have been called on to assist in
checking them.
According to an authoritive state
ment in the Lokal Anzeiger of Berlin,
the protracted heat and dry weather,
! following the late cold spring, have
had a most unfavorable effect on the
yield of fruit and particularly of
early vegetables, which this year are
of especial importance because of the
disappearance of potatoes. Notwith-
standing the planting of a double
| acreage of vegetables. compared with
peace times, the yield is disa ppointing.
Extra paintings probably will have lit
/ tie result.
Some relief is expected with the ar
rival of the first early potatoes. These
are delayed, however, and Hungary
| the principal source of early supply
4 also has suffered from weeks OF
4 drouth. The old potatoes have almost
| been exhausted. Hamburg and AL
| tona, for example, will be able to
| furnish none next week. Residents of
4 these cities will draw a pound to a
pound and quarter of bread instead
Residents Of Hamburg are now allow
/ ed to pay for fish with meat cards in
stead Of money.
