to Berne was also present. Con-
stantine and his suite drove di-

had been reserved for them.
A number of German diplomats
arrived here in anticipation of
the coming Of the former King
who was delayed by the illness Of
his wife. A long telegram from
the German Emperor was handed
to Constantine as soon as he left
the train. The immediate future
movements of the former monarch
are unknown, but it is believed
he will shortly go to Germany TO
visit the Emperor.

M. w. Fisher, Editor Enterprise
| New Iberia, La:
Dear Sir-I write to ask you
special cooperation in an import
ant phase Of the work of conserv
ing food for ourselves and oul
Allies. The plan l now have i,
mind is designed primarily tC
reach the church people and the
women, but with the help Of the
press it can be made to cover the
whole community.

will be mailed to every minister
whose name I can secure a per.
sonal letter over my signature
asking him to preach upon the
subject of Food Conservation on
Sunday, July first. In the same
letter, / shall express the hope
that this day viii become known
as GOOD Saving Day." and
that it may be made the purpose
and motto Of every household in
America to Save the Waste and
Win the War.
May I have your assistance
along the following lines; First,
on Monday, June 25 (but not be-
fore) and on succeeding days, to
announce in your paper the gen.
eral plan for Food Saving Day,
with whatever local arrangements
for observing it may be decided
upon, and to support it editor
tally.
Second. on Monday, July End
(but not before) and on succeed
ing days, to carry in display type
the motto "Save the Waste and

to our own people.
Yours faithfully,

ANGRY MEN TEAR UP
WOMEN'S BANNERS,
Peaceful Pickets At White House
Finally Provoke Near Riot.

Washington, June 20.-The
peaceful picketing Of the White
House grounds by silent sentinels
| of the suffrage cause resulted in
the first disorder today when a
crowd Of angry men tore down
banners the women were holding
| for the Russian mission to see
when it visited President Wilson.
The rumpus was over before the
police got on the scene, and no
arrests were made.
The banners were inscribed: \
president Wilson and Envoy
Root are deceiving Russia. They
say we are democracy. Help
us win a world war so that de-
mocracy may survive.
"We, the women Of America,
tell you that America is not a
democracy. Twenty million wo-
men are denied the right to vote.
President Wilson is the chief op-
ponent Of their national en-
franchisement. Help us make
this nation really free. Tell our
government that it must liberatc
its people before it can claim free
Russia as an ally"
The banners attracted groups
of men passing, who stopped and
discussed them. Finally discus
sion gave way to action.
Cries of traitors, F" treason, ="
and "they are enemies of their
country" were shouted at the
two men holding the banner and
after one yelled "let's tear it
down." the crowd jumped for
ward and the canvass was torn
from fastenings leaving the suf-
ragists holding the frames and
poles.
One of the White House police
pursued a man who, he said, was
leading the crowd. The man was

London, June 20.-Twenty-
seven British ships of more than
1,6O0 tons have been sunk, ac-
cording to the weekly British
summary given out today. Five
British vessels under 1000 tors
also were sent to the bottom. No
fishing vessels were destroyed.
Boston, June 20.-The Warren

London, June 20.-The weekly
list of British losses in torpedoed
ships which will be issued today,
will show the highest average Of
many weeks, the number Of ships
being comparable to the worst
week since the ruthless U-boat
campaign began. The returns
week by week for the last three
months show that the U-boat ac-
tivities run in waves and it is as
sumed that this week is the crest

men who insist that the admiralty
methods Of fighting the subma-
rines are constantly growing in

Medicine was prescribed by one
of the best physicians in this coun-
try for years. 1t is composed of
some of the best tonics known,
combined with some of the best

FRIDAY. SEPTEMBER I, 1917
CEMETERY FENCES

Both Of the Huntingdon GENE.
teries need some improvements in
the way of new fences, or the old
ones very greatly repaired.
The Oak Hill cemetery fence is
in such condition stock cannot be
kept off the grounds. The ladies
having this cemetery in charge
have had the matter before the
mayor and aldermen, but they
claim to be unable to build a fence
at this time. Much work has been
done on this cemetery this summer
and the grounds are in fairly good
condition. and a new fence should
be built. An expensive fence is
not desired, and a few hundred
dollars will meet the demands.
If the city authorities should
build the fences it would have to
be paid for by taxation. Why not
take up u public subscription and
secure the funds in this way. We
believe there is enough civic pride
in Huntingdon to inspire our peO.
pie to do this if some one will only
undertake the task.
Our people are liberal and when
stirred up to a proper appreciation
of their responsibilities never fail
to do their full duty along this
line.
We are sure that $500 will put
both cemeteries in good condition
along this line. The town owes
this much, at least, to the memory
of those who rest in these burying
places. The beauty and attract
iveness of our town are married by
the manner in which these ceme-
teries and the approach to them
is kept. A few good women are
doing all they can to put these sa-
cred spots in decent condition, but
they are handicapped for lack of
funds.
One.third Of the money that will
be spent by our people within the
next sixty days on shows, street
carnivals, etc., would meet the de-
mands Of our cemetery commit
tees in this particular, and our
people would think much more of
themselves for spending their
money for this needed improve
ment.
The Democrat wants to appeal
to the good people of this town,

AN OFFENSE

Germany has made representa-
tions shrough neutral powers that
one Of her officers taken captive
BY the French has been subjected
to indignity, and has asked that
adequate punishment be inflicted
upon the officer responsible for
the embarrassment of the German
captive. 1t is even charged that
the French officer went so far as
to deprive the German officer of
his insignia, and declined to treat
him with the consideration due
one officer from another.
France is asked to forget the
RHEIMS cathedral, the razing Of
public buildings, the wanton de-
struction of the homes of unof-
Tending civilians, the killing of
old men and boys for fancied of
lenses, the assaults upon her wom-
en-, the enslavement and worse for
the Belgians.
France is asked to forget the
barren waste of her pleasant fields,
the handless children sent through
the lines as evidence that Germany
is taking care that no future gen.
Grafton shall bear arms against her,
or question her right to abrogate
a solemn treaty, the aerial raids
upon her unfortiied cities and the
killing of women and children.
Let the neutral nations, in the
name of the women and children
who went down on the Lusitania,
in the name of Edith Cavell, in
the name of the British who per-
ished on the deck of the U-boat,
ask France to deal gently with the
captive Germans.
What the Germans do to the
captive allies, of course, is a diff
ferent matter. AS Mr.. Gerard
said in a recent address: The
Germans hate Americans worse
than they do the English, and you
know what they did to the Eng
lish prisoners" In view of all
these things and more France may
be relied upon to conduct herself
as graciously as the situation will
permit. The allies are making no
war upon the helpless; that dis
tinction belongs exclusively to the
Germans. News-Scimitar.
