AN APPRECIATION
Mrs. s. K Wilton

Mrs. s. X. Witten was born at
Charles City, Iowa, on MI" 6, 1874,
where the days of her childhood
and early life were spent. On NOV.
%. 1895, she was married to sam
Witten and to them were born
three boys. In 1915 they moved TO
their homestead, nine miles north
east of Holly, where she died on
Jan. 26. 1917.
o call it not death,
Tis life began
For the waters are passed and the
home is won.
The ransomed spirit hath reached
the shore where they weep and
suffer and sin no more.
Mrs. Witten was good wife, a
good mother and good neighbor.
She fulfilled the scriptures in many
ways that a great many Christians
fail to do. She was always ready
and willing to lend helping hand
to those who needed help. AS the
scriptures says, Love thy neighbOr
as thy SELF
We certainly feel that Mrs. Witten
did. She loved company and en-
joyed conversation, but it was al
ways something good. If she did
not know any thing good to say
about any one she would not say
any thing. at all.
Rev. Woods preached the funeral
sermon at the home, after which
the body was buried in Holly Gem
itery.

Through q varied and entertain

w.s heard in recital last night al
the First n. E church. oen'oil'
strated a wide range Of cleverness
and talent, and those who assisted
her proved their ability to star IN
their own lines.
The affair was given under the
auspices of the Ladies' Aid society
and others on the program besides
Mrs. Mckee were Mrs. Treva w. VIII
lfarns and Mrs. r. A. Covington as
soloists; Philip Goodwin, violinist,
and Mrs. L. D. Van Arnam ana
Mrs. C. NJ. Brown at the piano and
organ.
Mrs. MeKee's diverse recitations
were marked by finesse and inter
pretative power. and she was en-
eored many times, the audience
seeming reluctant to let her go.
The delightful voice Of Mrs. VIII
lia1ns contributed much to the ef-
feet of the tableau Of The Wander
ing Boy. and Mrs. Covington was
charming in her solos, in one OF
which the violin obligato by Philip
Goodwin was an artistic feature.
Also productive Of keen pleasure
were the two splendid duets Of
Mrs. Van Arnam and Mrs. Brown.
There was q large audience last
night, despite the rain, and the
evening was deserving of . still
larger gathering.
Mrs Goodloe was in charge of the
affair.

Rocky Ford Beats Holly
A liberal number of Hollys high
school boys and girls journeyed to
Las Animas last Saturday. where
the boys were scheduled to play
the crack Rocky Ford team on
neutral ground" as it were. Prof.
Cochran and Harry Lee chape-
roned the young folks.
When the game began Holly
looked like ready money" and it
seemed as though Rocky Ford
would outrival the owner of the
race horse Tennessee, who placed
his horse first and the rest no
where!
At the end of the first hall Holly
continued her lead amid much
merry.making, but during the sec
ond half Rocky Ford began to
show class retaining the lead un-
til the final score showed some
thing like 80 to 10 in favor Of
Rocky Ford.

 BREAK
Ambassador Says Germany Will Never Break, U. s. Must-and He Prepares to Go Home.
(sy Review Leased Wire ]

WASHINGTON. Feb. 2-The events of today did not change the German view here that there is little hope of avoiding break of relations betwe the United States and Germany. un- less in some unexpected manner a peace conference is brought about.
 At the same time, the view of the German government as reflected here is that unless the United States in tends to go to war. nothing is to be gained by severing diplomatic rela- tions.
 Germany is represented at the em- bassy as not desiring that any harm should come to Americans. but as anxious that Americans stay away from the danger zone while the cen tral powers attempt to starve the entente. and especially Great Britain.
 The German government. according to embassy officials. never will her self break off relations with the Unit ed States. The German policy as out lined is that either a break or a de claration of war will have to come from the United States. In German quarters here there is much specula- tion regarding what will happen t5 Dutch and Scandinavian steamships which are reported to have been called into Kirkwall by the British admiralty. Germany was said to have no inten- ton of allowing ships to enter that port.
 Some officials connected with the embassy are so certain that a break will come that they have been con sidering ways and means of getting home. Suggestions for chartering an American ship have been considered.

WE'LL FIGHT WHOLE WORLD SAYS GERMANY
(By Review Leased Wirel

BERLIN, Feb. 2.-The semi-otficial Cologne Gazette declares that an ad- verse American reply to the German submarine communication will not change Germany's decision.
 We cannot for a second time, says the newspaper, have any con- sideration for alien interests. Our honor and existence are too greatly threatened by the new war declara- tiOn by the entente"
 The Frankfurter Zeitung discusses the submarine program without en- thusiasm.
 "Only the most cognet and compel ling reasons" says the newspaper, can have induced the emperor and Dr. vOn Bethmann-Hollweg to sane. tion the measure. Doubtless there have been negotiations between Berlin and Washington but we are ignorant of their results. It cannot be imagin- ed. however. that there can be any new meaning to American protesta- tions and therefore the imperial au- thorities are convinced that Germany's strength will be able to hold its own against an onslaught by the whole world"

WASHINGTON. Feb. 2 - Former President Taft prefaced a prepared speech on the League to Enforce Peace here tonight with reference to the new German crisis. declaring that if the United States were drawn into war Germany would force it by "her defiance of plain principles of justice and humanity which should ob- tain between civilian nations"
 The responsibility which now rests on the President and congress is very heavy" said NIT. Taft. They should know and do know that the American people will back them to the end in their decision. May God give them good deliverance"
 The former president was speaking before the chamber of commerce of the United States answering particu- larly of theorists of the League to En- force Peace. 'I had prepared this ad- dress" he said. before Germany startled this country and all neutrals by her last note. The actual dangers with which it brings us face to face may seem to make all discussion at this time theoretical, and inappropri-

BOSTON. Feb. An inspection today by customs officials of the six German steamers tied up at this port showed absolutely nothing to arouse the least suspicion" according to Eli Perry acting solicitor of the port.
 "ln every instance" MT. Perry said. the customs officials were courteously received. They made a careful and detailed examination of machinery and went through all parts of vessels below decks"
 Today the Boston police detailed 30 men to assist the port authorities to guard the property of the German liners and in addition the regular neutrality patrol was doubled. The harbor police also received instruc- tions to re-double their vigilance in the waters adjacent to the German ships.

ate. The truth is, however. that this great crisis only emphasizes the inn portance Of the purpose and plan Of the league in the future history of this country.
 "Of all things, we would avoid war We are not prepared for it. Its awful consequences we know from Europe's suffering. Our prayer is for some escape from it in this critical hour. if consistent with our national honor. But we must face the facts.
 ''In her campaign against her enc mics, Germany proposes ruthlessly to wage war upon the property and lives of neutrals in fragrant violation of their rights. She began with Belgium. She now includes them all Our na- tiOnal conscience is void of offense against her. Her cruel and indefen- sible drowning without warning of more than a hundred innocent Ameri- cans on the Lusitania are condoned in view of her pledge against a repeti- tion. That pledge is now withdrawn and she ayows her purpose to resume her shocking course.
 If war is to come between us. she will be the unprovoked aggressor."
