IN MEMORY OF MOTHER

Words how weak they are. What
do they mean to the stricken in spirit,
to the broken-hearted husband, daugh-
ter and son who mourn for. one whose
voice has been stilied, whoge presence
can never again Tighten the home
with it's warmth, its cheer and love-
If we could but crystalize feelings
and emotion, then we could fully
describe broken human heart--but
we cannot, so we must resort to
words.
One year ago the 10th Of this
month (June), God through His in
finite mercy, saw fit TO take from
our family circle our dear mother.
So, on the Goth day of June, offer
these weak words as an expression
Of an emotion |. long to express, but
cannot.
dearest Mother, since thou hast
passed away,
| 1t seems not a year, but only yes
| terday.
Whenever hear your dear name,
Ny eyes with tears are wet,
For, oh, how dearly | loved you
Mother,
And love cannot forget.
The Lord took you from us, and il
was His own holy will,
! But il taking, He left vacancy ii
our hearts that can never hs
! flied.
But during our saddest moments,
tone happy thought holds sway:
We shall meet again, dear Mother,
And be happy some sweet day.

SOUTH LYNCHES THEM

Henry Johnson, a colored soldier, OF
Albany, New York, has been cited
and decorated by the French military
authorities for what the French gem
eral Of division terms a magnificent
example of courage and energy"
With him was Needham Roberts, am
other colored man. Both men fought
bravely," says Pershing in his official
report Of the exploit.
On the same day that the cables
from France brought the news of
Johnson's and Roberts heroism, the
wires from Valdosta, Georgia, brought
the story Of the lynching of a colored
woman, Mary Turner by name, be-
cause she had attempted to resist the
lynching of her husband.
This coincidence has moved the New

thousands of American negroes fight

MAY WARN GERMANY
HINT ULTIMATUM AGAINST HUNS
CRIMES.
U. S. and Allies Stirred to ReprisaIs
by Burning of Cambria and
st. Quentin.

Washington, Oct. 3-An ultimatum
to Germany regarding the ruthless de-
sruction of cities and private proper
ty in northern France and Belgium is
being urged on the allies and the Unit
ed States and is under consideration.
The burning of Cambria and ST.
Quentin and the devastation of one of
the most populous regions of Europe
as the Germans retreat has aroused
great indignation, and it was said in
diplomatic circles that Germany would
be warned soon that if she allows the
work Of destruction to continue Sc
we're reprisals will follow.
1t is suggested that the cities of the
Rhine should be marked for destruc-
ton and the Berlin government told
that for every French and Belgian city
ruined without military reason a city
equally important and valuable senti-
mentally and materially will be laid
waste
Since reprisals by bombardment
have caused the Germans to discon-
AAAAhN " a SACdt CAlGuI their dlF at
tacks on defenseless communities, it is
felt here that a similar warning might
be effective in bringing HON to the
German people the danger of retalia-
ton for ruthless destruction of terri
tory now occupied by their troops.
An official dispatch from France
quotes the Petit Parisien as follows:
Cambria is burning. This is the
new crime accomplished by those
great destroyers of life. Cambria, the
historical city, with all her memories
Of the past; Cambria, the modern town
with its industries, is falling to pieces
among red and black whirlwind Of
sparks and flames. Cambria is at the
present moment but an enormous fire.
The Germans hive left, but threw as
they went their lucendiary torches on
the valuable remembrance of ancient
France"

AUSTRIANS IN PANIC
PEOPLE SEE END AS THE RuL-
CARS QUIT.
Newspapers in Vienna Describe Ire
mendous Sensation Caused by
AlIy's Collapse.

Amsterdam, Oct. 3.-The entire Ger
man ministry has resigned, according
to advices received here.
Amsterdam, Oct. 3. - Saturdays
Vienna newspapers which have reach
ed here describe the tremendous SEN
sation caused in the Austrian capital
by the Bulgarian collapse Rumors
spread with lightning-like rapidity that
Turkey had followed suit, that King
Ferdinand had abdicated, that his pal
ace had been blown up and that rev.
oiution had broken out in Bulgaria.
These rumors We're promptly denied,
but the impression remained that Bull
garia's secession had administered
grave blow to the dual monarchy.
There was a panic on the bourse
where the losses, according to the
Neues Journal, ran up to 100 points
In some cases. The pandemonium ON
the Budapest bourse was such that
business had to be suspended. The
closing of both the Vienna and Buda-
pest bourses was contemplated for a
time. The move was not carried out,
however, although at Budapest a
bourse committee was found necessary
to fix minimum quotations.
A dispatch received here from Buda-
pest quotes the newspapers of that city
as saying that crown council was
held Saturday, at which military meas
ures that had become necessary as
result of Bulgaria's action were taken
to guarantee an effective defense, but
the government was still striving at
the earliest possible moment, in agree
ment with Germany to secure peace
thar would absolutely preserve the
monarchy's territorial integrity.
Plans are under consideration for
the reorganization Of both the imperial
German and Prussian ministries on
the lines of a parliamentary system,
according to the Berlin Tageblatt,
which quotes Friedrich Won Payer, the
imperial vice chancellor. to this effect.

DAMASCUS TAKEN
BY BRITISH FORCES
Ancient City Is the Key to All
Syria.
IS OLDEST TOWN IN WORLD
London Announces That Gen. AIIenby's
Army Is In Possession of Old Capt.
tai, Long Stronghold of Turks
Has Large Population.

London, Oct. 3.-Damascus, the capt.
tai of Syria, was occupied by General
Allenby's forces Tuesday morning. ac-
cording to an official statement issued
by the British war Office.
Damascus is considered the key to
Syria and Palestine. Prof. Richard
Gottheil Of Columbia university, for
merly a member of the school of arch
aelogy at Jerusalem, in a recent inter-
view said: THE key to Syria and Pal
estine is the city of Damascus. He
who possesses II holds the open Sc
same to the country to the south, the
west and the north. From Damascus
the British and their allies can push
On to Aleppo, and when once at Alep-
pc the allied fleet will be able to seize
Alexandretta, the most northern point
Of the Syrian coast"
The capture of Damascus marks an
advance of 100 miles by General Allen
oy's forces since September 20, the day
ae launched his victorious attack north
If Jerusalem. IL that time the British
gave captured more than $4,000 prison
ers, destroyed at least three Turkish
armies and driven the enemy from Pal
sstine and great part of Syria.
Oldest City in the World.
Damascus, with a population vari-
Ously estimated at from 10000 to $780,
900, is considered the oldest city in
the world. 1t is in the Lebanon region
of Syria, So miles southeast of Beirut.
The founding of the city is attributed
by Josephus to Uz the son of Aram.
The city, with its beautiful surround
ings and abundant water supply, has
been regarded by the Arabs as the
most beautiful spot in the world and
Is supposed to have served as a model
for the Paradise described in the Ko-
ran. Upon view, however. the city
is disappointing. The architecture is
Moorish. The city is surrounded by
wall which is pierced by seven gates.
"The street called Straight" on which
st. Paul is supposed to have lived, Is
crooked and narrow.
On Main Caravan Line.
Damascus has over 200 mosques.
The largest Is supposed originally to
have been heather temple. The chief
manufactures are silver and gold orna-
ments and textile fabrics. Damascus
blades. long famous, long ago ceased
as an industry. The city's early i'm
portance is due TO the fact that 1t is
on the caravan line to Aleppo and on
the route from Beirut to Medina.
Turks to Quit Soon.
Turkey, which Is said to have put
out peace feelers," will, 1t is expected.
soon follow the example of Bulgaria
In getting out of the war. Austria-Hun-
gary. too. seems to be on the eve of
taking step which may have an inn
portant bearing on her status as bel
ligerent. Possibly some new peace pro
posals are indicated in dispatches from
Budapest.
Germany's ministerial crisis seems
critical. 1t Is reported that all the i'm
perial secretaries of state have re-
signed and that the whole Prussian
ministry intends to quit office.
