FAMOUS HYMN
WRITER DEAD
Author Of Famous Hymn
Passes Away at the Age of
Eighty-Three at Home in
Vermont

BENNINGTON, Vt; Jan. 3.-Mrs.
Annie Sherwood Hawks, author of
the famous gospel hymns. died at her
home here today at the age of SO.

hymns of the past half century.
From her fourteenth year, when her
first bit of verse was published in a
newspaper in Troy, n. Y, she devoted
a large part of her long life to the
production of poems and hymns. OF
her hymns which came into common
use the best known is, 81 Need Thee
Every Hour" which is said TO have
been translated into more foreign
languages than any other modern
hymn.
Mrs. Hawks, who was born in Hoo.
sick. n. Y, in 1885, was educated in
the public schools and in the Troy
Seminary. After her marriage. to
ChaIcs Hail Hawks, members OF a
New York banking firm, she lived in
Brooklyn until the death OF her hus
band in 1883. Since then she had
made her home with her daugh, er in

TERROR GAS SEARS
FLESH OF VICTIMS

PARIS, Jan. German science has
evolved another terrible form OF
death that contributed in no mean way
to the defeat OF part OF the second
Italian army. The Prussian chemists
have invented a container in large
caliber shell. With the explosion OF
the shell the gas is released and
spreads very slowly. 1t is all but odor-
less and imperceptible, unlike the
other gases which hang in visible
clouds and are quickly dissipated.
The gas is OF the blistering variety
and will not only seep through ordin-
tary clothing, but will collect around
any portion of the body where the cloth
ing has become dampened through
Precipitation or has been wetted by
rain or trench water. The gas does
not always demonstrate itself imme.
diately. Sometimes the burns do not
begin to appear until hours after the
shell has been fired.
When the burns or blistcrs extend
over large part OF the body they be,
come exceedingly dangerous. as are
burns OF any nature that cover a quar-
ter OF the surface OF the human frame
The whole system becomes poisoned
the normal functions of the skin are
suspended and the patient very fire

CRISIS NEAR
IN THE PEACE
COME ERENCE
Break in Negotiations Would
Upset all German Plans to
Press Formidable Attack on
Western Front

BY ASSOCIATED PRESS, Jan. s.
The crisis is nearing in the German
Russian peace negotiations and the
indications are that definite break
is not far Off. The. Russian govern
ment has demanded that the confer
ence which was TO reconvene on jan
uary be transferred to Stockholm
and has protested against the Ger
man attitude regarding occupied ter.
ritory. The resumption of hostilities
is not improbable should ihe Germans
decline To meet the Russian demands.
\ break in negotiations will upset
all German plans TO press a formidable
attack on the western front, as the
Germans will be forced TO return
troops that have been taken from the
Russian front during the last six
weeks.

MARATHON WINNER
NOW AT HAllECK

Nevada has in the past supported a
great many different kinds OF sports
but as far as can be ascertained the
state has yet to stage its first mara
thon race. The fact that II takes at
least two men to make a marathon is
the principal reason why n race over
the classic distance has not been held
in this state.
Half of this difficulty appears TO be
solved, however, for over at HallecR
resides and engages in the pursuit Of
farming one Harry German. who has
been a resident of ;he state for sew
eral years. German is long distance
runner OF repute and seven years ago
won the big Y. NJ. c. a. marathon over
