MEXICO BOY PROMOTED.

Roy Creasey, son of Mason Creasey
Of Mexico, in the United service in
ST. Louis, writes his father here as
follows:
st. Louis, Mo, Aug. 8, 1917.
Dear Dad: Was made chief of sec
tion today and have charge of II
men along with cannon, one caison,
13 horses, and have a horse for my
own use alone. This is much better
than l expected. The next thing is to
make good, and watch me- never
have failed.
Salary will be $45 per, and all ex-
penses paid. Better than I expected.
thought l might be a corporal, but
now have two corporals and 5 pri-
Yates under my directions.
A good many of the boys I am
training are falling out on account of
sore feet. They ask if l ever get
tired. I am having no trouble along
that line.

it is with religion. Some things
which pure and undefiled religion de-
mands of us we hold to be hard, but
only so because they are far away
from our manner of living. Draw
nigh unto God and He will draw nigh
unto you.' Walk humbly with thy
God and all the dark places He will
tighten, and all the rough places He
will make smooth, and all the heavy
loads He will bear.
"I would like to write today as
with pointed steel upon your heart
and brain these words, What doth
the Lord require of thee but to do
Justly, and to love mercy, and to walk
humbly with thy Cod.
when across the rolling pillows,
yonder on the far-fiung battle line in
France, you and l may chance to
meet again, facing, as we shall, the
liquid fire, the poisonous gas, and
the high explosives, each in his own
way bearing his part, to set the
world free,' let US not forget the
creed we learn today, What doth the
Lord require of thee but to do just
ly, and to love kindness, and to walk
humbly with thy God"
Rev. White has been granted a
leave of absence by his Tennessee
congregation and is to engage in
Y. M. c. A. war work. You can see
from the above he means to meet the
boys somewhere in France"

Draft Foe Is
Anesed AS Spy
A Good Fellow" Is Snatched Up BY
The Government-"Dr." Deane
Could Fix Your Eyes.

Moberly, Mo-, Aug. 11.-A man
giving his name as E. j. Deane, who
was arrested at Mexico last night by
E. ]. Shedd, who was a member of
the Department of Justice, was ar
raigned before United States Com
missioner Louis Ratliff today on a
cha ~. / being a German spy.
Deane, it is claimed, has secretly
organized Germans and others living
in Audrain County, and sought to in
duce men of military age to evade
the draft. He is also said to have
given men who were about to be ex.
amined by the Audrain County Ex-
emption Board medicine with which
to dim their eyesight that they night
not be able to pass the examination.
Commissioner Ratliff bound Deane
over for a hearing August 20, fixing
his bond at $4,000. Pending trial he
will be confined in the county Jail at

Sheriff ]. C. Ford arrested the
above suspect here on orders from
the Federal Government.
Deane had been aound Mexico
since last fall. He was a very affa-
bic fellow and fell in with the church
folks readily-or tried to. He was
a teacher OF class in one of our
Sunday schools.
He may be all right, and then he
may not. He represented himself AZ
a preacher, but did not go about the
church here he claimed as his denom-
ination. In business, he claimed to
be representing an oil company in
the West and made some efforts to
sell certain ones stock here.
The affidavit under which he was
arrested read as follows:
"E. J. Deane did knowingly, will
ingly and feloniously attempt to
cause refusal of duty in the military
forces of the United States, and did
wilfully obstruct the enlistment ser
vice of the United States, in this, to-
wit. that the said Z. J. Deane did at
tempt to use upon William Otis John
son, of Audrain County, Missouri, 4
certain drug to the atliant unknown,
with the intent that said drug would
so affect the eyes of said Otis John
son that he could not pass the physi-
cal examination required under the
salective conscription act and the reg
ulatious hereunder"
William Otis Johnson, referred to
above. is the son of Wallace Johnson
OF Mexico and some time ago enlisted
in the Fifth Regiment OF Missouri.
He was here Saturday and testified
against Deane.
Other developments are looked fol
when the case is heard at Mobsrly.
When Deane was taken down the
street here by the officers for the
station he saluted people along the
walks with his haudcuffed hands and
as his train pulled away he is said to
have called out to the people on the
platform, I'm the fellow they want

WAR TORN EUROPE.
Witnesses Air Raid In London
2OO School Children Killed.

Otis Martin arrived at his home in
Elsberry Saturday to visit his moth
er, Mrs. Sue Martin, and other rela-
dyes Otis went from Bellaire, Ohio,
in April to France with a shipment
Of mules. He sailed May 1st, and
later landed at Southampton, Eng
land. The mules were there trans
ferred to transport, sent across the
English Channel to Calais, France.
Thence they were shipped direct to
Paris, and next day to a point with
in ten miles of the battle front.
The men in charge of the mules
were escorted thru France by a
French army officer After a few days
they were back in London and we're
there June 13, when London was
raided by a score or more of German
aeroplanes. Martin says that about
II m. he started across a street to
enter a restaurant when a loud re-
port was heard some distance down
the stereet. Thinking it was a large
gup being tested out he started in
the direction of the report. He had
taken but few steps when similar
report was heard in another direc-
ton. Occupants of buildings soon
began filing out as reports became
more FREQUENT and all seemed terror
stricken. Many strong men fell on
their knees, he said, and prayed that
they might be saved from destruc-
ton.
The raid lasted about six minutes,
but in that time more than 800 per-
sons were killed, many wounded, and
property damage amounted to hun.
dreds of thousands dollars.
A school building about fou1
blocks from where Martin stood dur
ing the raid, was blown to atoms by
a bomb and fully 200 children were
killed and others manned and in
jured.
London Tower was the objective
of the air-men, as hundreds OF SOL
diers are stationed there. \ part
of the structure was hit and At SOL
diers and civilians killed. Mar
tin says the evening papers announ-
ced that but 81 were killed in the
raid, but he declares that he counted
moro than 200 dead bodies.
on their return trip they sailed by
way of Genoa, Italy, and to escape
submarines, took zig-zag course, re-
uuiring extra time. lie saw airplanes
in France and at Southampton. He
talked with men who had been on
the battle fields and it is the opinion
that Germanys fortifications will
never be penetrated 20 any great ex-
tent, even though the world combines
against them. On the other hand
Germany will never be able to make
further progress on the western
front and the war seems to be mere
ly matter of endurance
He says enemy aeroplanes attack
London at will, apparently entertain
ing no fear, but they give Paris Q
wide berth because of the activity
and skill of French airmen in COM
batting enemy air-planes.

on the assumption that the Germans

is, two men work together and in
charging they jump over the trench
and thrust in the back. If the bay

TROOPS FROM WESTERN
FRONT DISPATCHED TO
.t,.
INTERIOR OF GERMANY
TO MEET NEW
CRISIS


Copenhagen, April 27--All the Ger
man newspapers today indicate a
deep and widespread apprehension
that revival of last weeks strike
movement is imminent.
The aspects of possible May Day
strike, which came from a few papers
already swelled today to chorus Of
eApostulations and appeal to the
workingmen not to allow themselves
to be swept off their feet as strike
agitators, not to leave their brothers
helpless in the field of battle, by
checking the stream OF munitions
and supplies.
First and foremost comes the Of
fetal proclamation from Chancellor
yon Bethmann- -Hollweg, addressed
formally to the federal states, but
really to labor and containing both
appeal and a stern warning against
further interference with the NUM-
tlons works.
A manifesto from the four big min
ers' unions warn their miners against
reckless and regretful actions be-,
cause of unsatisfactory food condi-
tions. Finally there is another Of
fical announcement that a great &C.,
onomic attitude on the war industries
Is necessary and important, to revise
the army This gives the govern
ment any needed justification for
sending to the front munitions work
e,s who yield to temptation.
Labor agitators throughout Ger
many and Austria are melting the
rural population to revolt against the
conditions that are now causing star
walton and ruin to the people.
That an uprising is in the making
there Is no doubt. Troops are being
FASTENED from the front to Germany
to guard against this latest menace
to the safety of the crown.
