One hundred years ago appeared what
Byron called 'the most perfect ode in
the language" "The Burial of Sir John
Moore" It was the Newry Telegraph
which gave to the world this anony-
nous poem Of Rev. Charles Wolfe.
which won for its author but posthu-
nous fame. for not until his death in
1923 was its real authorship made
known, though various had been the
guesses as to the writer. That obscure
curate Of Ballyclog must have felt
proud indeed to find among its putative
authors such poets as Campbell and
Byron.-LOndon Chronicle.

FROM PEARL RIVER.

Pearl River, April 2, 1917.
Last Friday night, March 80. a
box supper party was given at the
Central school house for the benefit
of the school, After a good sized
crowd had assembled on the grounds
Mr.. Emile Singletary was introduced
as auctioneer, to sell the sixteen box
es which had accumulated upon the
table during the afternoon. The
boxes were exquisitely prepared for
the occasion, and were very charm
ing to the spectators Mr.. Single
tary, very witty, and master of his
job, did not fail to make the most
OF all those attractive boxes. The
result was that they sold like hot
cakes.
Miss Ida Singletary's box wa
sold for the most, and was awarded
a nice cake as gift. Mr.. George
Kennedy, her fiancee, was. the happy
recipient of that charming box. We
congratulate George for his box.
Following the selling of the boxes,
a voting contest for cake, prepared
for the occasion, for the prettiest
and most popular girl, was we'll con-
Quoted. The girls nominated and
brought upon the stage were Misses
Icy, Ella and Lena Moran and Ida
9ingletary, all from Central, and Miss
Lozane Craddock, from Audubon
A keen sense of interest and friendly
rivalry was manifested among the
boys. Miss Lozane Craddock won
the contest by receiving the highes..
number of votes, and deserves con-
gratulations for her good looks and

striction aside. Vessels of every

acter, their cargo, their destination,

sent to the bottom without warning

II was for little while unable to
believe that such things would In
fact be done by any government that
had hitherto subscribed to the hu-
name practices of civilized nations.
international law had its origin in
the attempt to set up some law which
would be respected and observed up
on the seas, where no nation had
right Of dominion and where lay the
free highways of the world. BY
painful labor, stage after stage, has
that law been built up with meagre
enough results, indeed, after all was
accomplished. but always with q
clear view. at least, of what the
heart and conscience of mankind de-
maded. This minimum of right the
German government has swept aside
under the plea Of retaliation and ne
cessity and because It had no weap-
ons which It could use at sea ex-
cept these which 1t is impossible to
employ as 1t is employing them with
out throwing to the winds all scrup-

understandings that were supposed
to mderlie the intercourse of the
world.

The President remained up until
nearl midnight tonight talking with
Col. E. M. House, VINO came to Wash

at IL o'clock for New York.
Here's Wilson's
Message In Full.
II have called the Congress into
extraordinary session because there
are very serious choices of policy to
be made, and made immediately,
which it was neither right nor con-
stitutionally permissible that l
should assume the responsibility of
making.
ION the third of February last l
officially laid before you the extra
ordinary announcement of the i'm
perial German government that on
and after the first day of February
it was its purpose to put aside all
restraints of law or humanity and
use its submarines to sink every
vessel that sought to approach either
the ports of Great Britain and Ire
land or the western coasts of Eu-
rope or any of the ports controlled
by the enemies of Germany within
the Mediterranean. That had SEEM
ed to be the object of the German
submarine warfare earlier in the war
but sine eApril OF last year the i'm
perial government had somewhat re-
strained the commanders of it's un-
dersea craft in conformity with its
promise then given to us that pass
enger boats should not be sunk and
that due warning would be given
to all other vessels which its sub
marines might seek to destroy, when
no. resistance was offered or escape
attempted and care taken that their
crews were given at least fair
chance to save their lives in their
open boats.
1.-The precautions taken were mea-
gre and haphazard enough as was
proved in distressing instance after
instance in the progress of the cruel
and unmanly business, but a certain
degree of restraint was observed.
The new policy has swept every re-

for assault with intent to kill, escaped
with Flanagan. The county Jail is

bathroom when men were put in a case.
When Jailer Lee came in ORourke at
tackled him. He was getting the bet

him out with broom handle. The
two men then went into the lobby of
the Jail and with the aid of the jailer's
gun forced the undersherif to go into
the special cell, where Flanagan has
been incarcerated since his escape.
The men then tied and gagged the
TALLER and took his keys and another
gun making their escape out of the
back door. The jailer, recovering con-
seriousness, managed to release himself
and notify the sheriff. He had to get
a blacksmith to open the cage where
Undersheriff Goggin was held.

hills after the desperadoes. All the
men are known as desperate charac-
ters and are expected to put up fight

outside. Flanagan was brought back
from Butte three weeks ago. Infatua-
ton for woman led to his downfall
at that time. He had sent for her to
meet him in Montana town. He is
known in this part of the country as
the king Of bootleggers" and was head
of a ring that has supplied booze to
the miners since Idaho went dry.
