MOTHER OF NINE.

Mother Of mine, my mother,
Gentle, and oh so fair.
Sweeter than any other,
Beauteous, wondrous, so rare;
Oh how your boy has missed you,
Throughout the long lost years,
Here since the day he kissed you
Bidding goodbye through the tears.
Swiftly the Seasons have vanished
In Life's precipitant pool.
Hopes, high and lowly, are banished
Under Eternity's rule;
Ever the End cometh nearer,
Plying no mortal fears
Yet ev'ry hour holds you dearer,
Mother of mine, through the years.
Manhood may change us for others
Sharing our sorrows and Joys;
But when it comes to our mothers
We always are little boys.
Mother of mine, watch above me
Keeping your boy in the right,
To never forget, and to love thee
Sc long as the day follows night.
Pray for me all through the trial,
In the dark hours and the bright,
There where the Suns fairest dial
Marks off the moments in flight;
My Guardian Angel, be with me
Until I cross DER the line
To ever and ever be with thee,
o fairest, o mother of mine.

IN Registration
Yale Opens It's 218th Academic
Year With Over 1000 Loss

New Haven, Sept. 27.-Yale opened
its 218th. academic year today with
a registration of regular resident stud
ents cut by war conditions from $500
to- 1000 or slightly more than one
third.
All departments except the medical
school, where the enrolment is about
the same as last year, show large los
ses, especially the college which drops
from /, SOP students to about 500. The
entering classes in the college and the
Sheffield scientific school number
about 800 each being from Is to 80
per cent. Of the normal registration.
The sophomore class in the college
will have about $50 men, the junior
class IT'S, and the senior class about
100. The scientific school suffers
somewhat less, partly because Of the
efforts made throughout the country
to have engineering students complete
their professional training.
The teaching force is also largely
diminished, leaves of absence having
been granted to over 40 members Of
the faculty for war work.

.THE HUN INSIDE OUR GATE"

Colonel Roosevelt yesterday de-
scended upon the head Of Senator La
Toilette like a thousand of brick.
The Colonel did not actually mutilate
the brow of Robert M, but in his
Chicago speech the famous old po-
litical warrior by verbal attack more
than put a crimp in the Uranium of
the Wisconsin misrepresentation.
1.-The Hun inside our gate Is the
way Roosevelt characterizes La Fol-
lette Truly that hits the nail on the
head, as we'll as the Hun. The bearer
of French cognomen, the orator
from the Badger state Is more Ger
man than the Junkertum Of Germany
itself In all his activities during the
past three years. and more particu-
larly since America entered the war
against German militarism, La Fol-
lette has been an eye-sore to real
Americans.
If we sometimes wonder why pro-
Germans in this country have been
so bold; If we sometimes wonder why
the German language press dared
come out so openly for Germany and
against America; if we sometimes
wonder why sympathizers of the
Kaiser were brazen enough to assail
Wilson and uphold the unholy mon
arch, this should be the enlightening
answer: They did nothing more nor
less than anyone would do who fol-
lowed the inspiring light Of La Fol-
lette, "the Hun inside our gate

A Way to Show Loyalty.
(Bridgeport Farmer).

There seems to be one method by
which the American of German orr
gin may at the same time show his
loyalty to this government and his
love and affection for the men and
women of his own stock in Germany.
The great immigration Of Germans
followed upon the revolution of '4S,
when the Germans of strong republi-
can tendencies tried to overturn the
throne and wished to give Germany
a republican form of government.
The hundreds Of thousands of Ger
mans who came to America, after the
failure of the revolution, were repub-
lican in spirit They did not love the
kaiser. They did not love the institu-
ton of militarism.
Now the president Of the United
States has advised Germany that If 1t
wants peace, there must be gov
eminent responsible to the German
people a government with which the
nations can treat in the certainty that
It's promises will be kept.
Let loyal German-Americans then
assemble for the purpose of tes-
tifying, for the purpose Of advising
their brethren in Germany to take on
the aspect Of a republic, to become a
republic in fact.
How strikingly would the testimony
of millions of American citizens of
German origin be received in Ger
many, when given in proof of the
principle that the republican form of
government is the best yet devised by
mankind. What aid might be given
to progressives in Germany to throw
off an ancient and deadly yoke. Per-
mission for such meetings could read
lily be obtained. They would be in
eloquent testimony that America
makes all American, who come upon
the soil and abide beneath her flag.

Servants Home.
New York, Sept. 27.-Rabbi Barnett
Wolinsky, said to be 113 years DID,

time he was ever detained in the
house through illness was about thir-
ty-five years ago, when he was
knocked down by a fire truck and re-
ceived bruises.
On his .102d birthday Theodore

we'll as Russian and Hebrew.

Upon the arrival of the Japanese

following proclamation in view of the
coming Of the visitors:
The island empire, whose seclusion
of three centuries was broken by the
bearer of a letter from the President
of the United States, sends us today a
return message, proclalming its peo-
pie as brothers in arms in the common
cause of human freedom. One of the
momentous events of the nineteenth
century-the appearance of the fleet
commanded by Commodore Perry in
Japanese watersheds thus it's sequel
in what will be reckoned not the least
notable incident in the inspiring time
in which we live. This visit of the rep
resentatives of our great Pacific neigh
Dor and ally, gives to the citizens Of
New York the occasion and opportuni-
ty to manifest that open-hearted and
cordial appreciation they feel of the
m essage that comes to them from the
Far East, and to express in becoming
form their sense of the nobility OF
spirit and purposes of the Government
of which our distinguished guests are
the selected Representatives.
Wherefore, l, John Purroy Mitchell
Mayor of the City of New York. do
hereby direct that the flag of our ally.
Japan, be flown upon the public build
ings of the city throughout the visit of
its guests and I call upon the people
of the city to celebrate this occasion
for the closer cementing Of the ira
ditional friendship between this nation
and Japan by a BETTING decoration
and illumination of their buildings.

EHENEXER j. HID,

Ebenezer j. Hill, dead today at his
home in Norwalk. leaves behind him
a record that has seldom been
equa1led by any man in public life.
For more than twenty years he served
his district, the fourth congressional,
in the halls Of Congress at Washing
ton. Elected to the fifty fourth Con-
gress he continued his seat there until
the sixty third when he was over
thrown by the Democratic avalanche
that swept the entire country. Bar
ring that intermittance caused by the
popularity of Woodrow Wilson over
the old-line Republicanism Ebenezer
Hill practically had continuous
reign. His death marks a great loss
to Republicanism in this state for,
whatever his other shortcomings, he
seldom If ever swerved from the
path of political righteousness, as he
saw it. His seventy-two years were
filled with activities such as come to
few men. In the great war between
the states he marched away with the
boys in blue, thus setting an ex-
ample of patriotism to the young
men. of the Spanish War and those
who are fortunate enough to be alive
today for the work in hand. Honored
beyond ordinary measure by his
adopted home town, his county. and

SUPPOSE THEY DID.

Last Friday night the Germans are
said to have made an advance on
Gravenstafel Ridge under the protec-
ton Of the white flag, the flag Of
truce.
This subterfuge on the part Of the
Germans Is accredited to having gained
for them temporary occupation OF
this territory. having driven the foe
back one-f1fth of mile along
stretch of one mile.
After a very short occupation of
such territory the Germans are said
to have been driven back in rout from
the land their treachery had gained
for them.
even in war, usually gets it's just de-
serts What the Germans could
have hoped to gain under this desc
Grafton of the white flag is far more
than the average man can tell.
In the long run this incident must
reverberate against the Germans,
just as in the case of the boy who
cried wolff" Attempting to fool the
populace this young shaver set up a
cry of alarm when there was no
danger On the first time he had
his little joke to himself. Even on
the second attempt to fool his towns
men he was successful. After the
third time, however, the villagers
"got wise" Then when he really
was attacked by wolves the boy was
left to his fate.
So it must be with a nation which
allows its soldiers, or any part of its
army, to fool the enemy under the
flag Of truce. Suppose these German
soldiers did succeed in gaining point
by inveigling the enemy to cease
firing SO the Kaiser's cohorts could
advance? Suppose they did? There
might come time some day when
they will really want to use the
flag of truce. And in their hands it
will be Of no avail.
