|B|C SHELL PLANT | IN BAD EXPLOSION
Building in Shell-Loading Factory at New Castle, Del, Destroyed az Thousands of Shells Are Blown
 Up-Man's Head Blown of.

Wilmington, Del, Dec. i2.-A ter rife bombardment shortly before 8 o'clock this morning, with shells flying in every direction aroused New Castle and immediate vicinity, as we'll as Wilmington and other points and soon developed into a fire which had broken out ill one of the most dangerous sections of the shell loading plant of the Bethlehem Steel Company, about a mile below New Castle.
 The blaze which is of unknown or igin, started in the shell loading house in which were stored i5,00o shells loaded with T. N. T., one of the most violent of all explosives used in war, and 300 empty shells The fire had scarcely started when the contents of the loaded shells be- gan to fly in every direction. The building, which was a frame struc- ture about 100 by i50 feet, burned like finder and as the flames reached the loaded shells the latter began tC explode and occasionally one would be hurled out of the building. OnC man, Theodore Jacobs of Harrison psreagreasonsvgcdiHd
 N. J., the chief of guard, was killed his head being blown off by one oi 1 the shells.

COMPENSATION OF
 WAR IS IN PEACE
New Era of Freedom and Justice for tine People of the World Must Come at End of Conflict Says
 ASquith.

London, Dec i2.-The ungrudging sacrifice made by the British people, former Premier Asquith declared in an address at Birmingham yester- day, proved that the ancient and in- grained spirit Of the British people had not been sapped by luxury or slaled and withered by dotage.
 We look to the end,' he said with the assured and ever growing belief that both in the council cham Der of peace and in the ordering of our own household a new era of liberty will be opened"
 The former premier said that he had large part in Great Britain en- tering the war and he unhesitatingly believed it had been worth while if the war ends in apeace of security and permanency He endorsed President Wilson's latest words as expressing clearly the intentions and desires of the allies. Adverse criticism of the recent letter of the Marquis of Landsdowne, he added was caused by reading into it mean ings and intentions which the letter did not intend 10 convey.
 Mir. Asquith said there was abund- ant evidence that the enemy peo- ples are misinformed of the allies objects, which are not to annihilate the German people, but to destroy the military domination of Prussia He said that Germany must learT that the enthronement of force is bad business.
 An enemy mlsconception, ht continued, lis that the allies, espe- cially Great Britain, are aiming a the destruction for their own politi- cal and economic objects of wha vaguely is called the freedom of thu seas. This formula, if it possesses any relievance, can only be used t indicate some new limitations in wal time upon belligerent rights of thu power which happens to control thu sea. No corresponding limitation has been suggested for land warfar, where existing conventions hav' been in this conflict systematicall. violated by the enemy. I do no think we are likely to hear yer. much from the enemy lips of free | dom of the seas"

 THIS OLD INDIAN, AGED f27
Ancient Red Man Survives a Rail- way Accident and Hopes
 to Wed.

St. Paul, Minn., Dec. i3 Just what an Indian will endure despite handi- caps Of age and innrmities was il- lustrated by a letter received by the Associated Press here from Fred A. King, Indian Agent at Class Lake. Minn Mir. King had been asked to report on the condition of Ga-be- nah-gewn-wonce. l27 years old and he replied as follows:
 T am in receipt of yours relating to the aged Indian known as Ga-be- nah-gewn- wonce, also known as John smith by those who are unable Co pronounce his Indian name.
 No events have transpired in his life during the past two years worthy of being added to the sketch written for the Associated Press, ex- cept perhaps the fact that shortly after the sketch was prepared he was run over by switch engine in the Great Northern railroad yards here. Ne was badly shaken and was picked up and taken to our local hospital for medical treatment.
 He refused to occupy bed while in the hospital, and rolling himself up in blanket he laid on the floor during the two weeks he was con- fined to the hospital
 He has not as yet married again but is still hoping to meet an Indian maiden who is willing to become Mrs. Ga-be-nah-gewn-wonce
 You ask me to telegraph you in the event of his death. l will do so providing he dies before l do.
 He is residing in Cass Lake with his Indian son-in-law at present. IS still active and frequently goes by train to Bena to visit his Indian friends in that vicinity. He went there today, in fact"

T have gained twenty pounds since | began using it and my improvement has been so great hardly know my self.
 Fifteen years ago my health be- gan to fail. I got in such bad shape l couldn't digest anything, my blood was thin and my arms covered with spots. My back hurt so I was told l had spinal trouble, and the rheuma- tism pains all over my body were awful. I got so nervous and was so racked with pain could hardly sleep. My husband spent thous- ands of dollars trying to get me we'll but nothing did me any good.
 q heard so much about Tanlac I bought a bottle and began to im- prove right off I can eat now and enjoy my meals, and at night lie down and sleep like a child. The pains used to have in my back have left me and my head don't ache any more. My blood is in good con- dition and the ugly spots have left my arms.

RAILWAY HEADS
 WILL AID WILSON
Managers of Lines Offer Services to President in Traffic Problem, Even t0 Government 0peration--Had
 Meeting With Brotherhoods.

Washington. Dec. i2.-The fullest measures of cooperation in any de- cision President Wilson may make to solve the railroad problem, even tho he should choose government operation. was pledged to the pres idenf today by the railroads war board. composed of representative committee of railroad executives.
 The railroad executives told the president they did not ask billion dollar loan or a suspension of the antitrust and anti-pooling laws. They told him they believed the rail- roads themselves would be able to cope with the traffic congestion if the government would name fed eral traffic director to coordinate all government shipments and have the government approve credit for raising new capital.
 Thousands of priority orders com ing from as many sources. the rail- road men declared, are the princi- pal cause of congestion. Co-ordin- ation of government shipments by a federal traffic manager they said would meet the situation.
 If, however, the president after considering all plans, decided to take over the roads for government oper- alton, the railroad executives de- clared, he would receive their full- est cooperation
 After seeing the railroad exeeu- tives, President Wilson had an en- gagement with the heads of the four great railroad mems brotherhoods They oppose government operation

 Nothing touches his heart more than tears, especially those shed by young people and so he hurried across the road to the little girl who stood wailing on the corner, and asked the cause of the sorrow in one so young.
 "A-a naughty man broke my hoop with his nasty bicycle she walled.
 Did he?" grunted the kind heart ed man. Where is he?"
 'Oh. you'll easily catch him" the little dear assured him. Two men have just carried him into that drug store on board"

DUTCH ARMY HAS NOT FIRED A GUN
But Since 1914 Has Been Feverishly Quitting and Training an Army That Is Ready to Go in at
 Any Moment.

The Hague, Dee. i2.-Only some two days march north of the battle arena in Flanders stands a formi- dable army, intact, fresh and vigor- ous, that has not yet fired a shot in the great war. It is the army of the Netherlands.
 That army is ever growing. The work of training began feverishly back in August, 1914, and it has been carried on without a break ever since in all parts of the country. A special law was passed serae two years since greatly widening the eir- cle of those liable to service, with the result that all men under arms on August 1, 1914, now have been relieved by newiy trained men and sent home, tho they can be recalled to the colors immediately should oc- casi0n arise.
 That the eountry's military lead CTS have no intention to rest on their oars after the achievement is shown by bill that has just reached par lament providing for the re-exam- ination of all men of the Landsturm born since 1885 who had been re- ltscted for one reasGn or another This measure is expected to yield very substantial amount of fresh human material.
 How large a mass of trained men Holland could now place in the field IS easily discernable. There is first the army that was mobiliZed in the days of the wars outbreak, probab- ly not far short of quarter of a million men, and now all at home or indefinite leave. Then there is the new army now under arms, of like
 ske. Moreover, there is very con-
 icrable body of men who, prior tC 1914, had finished their period of f. years in militia, landwehr and land sturm, but who are subject to cal should occasion require.
 This should bring the number of trained men available to half mil lion men and possibly well over that number constituting far more formidable and probably better trained fighting force that the Meth erlands has ever before possessed ir her history.
 Tn equipment, too, the Netherlands army has made great strides during the past three years. The ammuni- tion industry has been reorganizeC and enormously extended. The ar tiiiery arm, in which that country was not0riously weak, has been re- inforced insofar as material was ob- tainable. Some guns are in order The delivery of anti-aircraft guns i; also in course of execution.
 Serious efforts are being exerted to improve Hollands aerial service A reorganization is contemplated that is estimated t0 cost between S7 100000 and s7,S00.00O The new scheme provides for i5 airplane di- visions comprising fifty-eight battle planes and siXty-six scouting planes Despite Germanys own big needs the arrival of dozen machines from that country was reported few days ago.
