HISTORY WROUGHT IN STONE
Marvels of French Architecture Which
the Uncivlllxed Hordes of Ger
many Would Destroy.

In architecture France is supreme,
X well may be said that without
France there would have been no Goth
&c architecture. The cathedrals OF
France are absolutely unriyaled, says
Cass Gilbert In the Worlds Work. One
has only to mention the names Of No
tire Dame de Paris, Bourges, Reims,
Charities, Rouen, Amiens, Beauvais and
Coutances to bring UP memories OF mir
acles of creative design which no
words can fittingly characterize or de-
scribe.
Wonders Of constructive ingenuity
as they are, they have yet more SUI
preme significance as evidence Of the
refinement and taste Of people in
Stlnct with emotion and ennobled by
idealism In Its most exalted phase.
These great buildings give expression
to the spiritual aspirations Of great
people.
They are constructions Of superb
scale and fascinating beauty, embel-
lished by tracery and arabesque, cnrv-
Ing and inlay, stained glass, tapestry,
bronze and iron of marvellous crafts
manshlp and exquisite design. They
are the product of thousand years
of faultless taste, the contribution of
innumerable thousands of craftsmen
devoted to the glory of God and the
love of france. And 1t is this glorious
nation that the hordes Of Germany
woald destroy.

A new sound arose In the darkness,
a sound which held for me q thrill as
Vital and incomparably more alluring
than the hint of distant battle. 1t rose
slowly, rich, mellow undulation,
which stirred every fiber, and then
Quavered, descended and broke off. We

In the spelling list for class in a
certain indianapolis school were the
words singing and smuggling. The
class was asked to write sentences
using these words to show that they
knew the correct meaning of each.
One little fellow, Robert, wrote:
'"The Italians are a singing nation"
"The allies will soon be singeing the
beard Of the kaiser"
With sideward glances he watched
his teacher mark his paper and timid-
ly asked:
SIS 1t all right?"
YES" she said, "but the kaiser has
no beard; he has a mustache."

DEEM PICTURE OUT or PLACE
British Authorities Request Removal
OF kalser's Portrait From
Tonga Kings Palace.

Germany's interesting relations with
the little kingdom Of Tonga In the
South Pacific are recalled by recent
Incidents there. A few years back a
life-size portrait of the kaiser mounted
within a massive gilt frame was pre-
scented by the German government to
King George Tuboa II, the present
ruler of the archipelago. Forthwith
this picture adorned the walls Of the
wooden palace at Nukualofa, the cap
ital of the kingdom. Germans--who,
shortly before the war, were rather
conspicuous In T0nga--were wont to
admire the painting when they came
to pay their respects to King George.
Moreover, close at hand were busts of
Emperor Frederick of Germany and
Prince Won Bismarck. So delightfully."-
informal In many ways is the Tongan
court that the busts did excellent serv-
ice as hat racks on festive occasions.
But not so with the present from the
"All Highest" But alack for the big
picture of the kaiser In little Tonga
After the war had been In progress for
some time the fact Of It's existence and
whereabouts came within the purview
OF the British government and that
government requested the Tongan goyr
eminent to remove 1t from the palace,
The pith Of this request was that Ton.
Ga is British protectorate. But not
withstanding Tonga Is British pro,
tectorate it is the last independent
kingdom In the Pacific and 1t prides
itself on having not only a monarch
but a cabinet and parliament.-New

strands of the cut barbed wire ON the
ground. ewaiting for challenge and
the Inevitable velley of rifle are. Moth
Ing happened. ! suppose the fellow
who cut the barbed wire improperly
was the one who had sneezed about
half an hour previously. What we
wished him would never make his new
year happy one.
The officer, In my opinion, at the
noise of the wire should have given the
four-tap signal. which meant, ION your
own, get back to your trenches as
quickly as possible but again he must
have relied on the spiel that Old Pep
per had given us in the dugout, "Per-
sonally believe that that part of the
German trench is unoccupied." Any
way, we got careless, but not so care
less that we sang patriotic songs or
made any unnecessary noise.
During the intervals of falling star
shells we carried on with our wire cut
ting until at last we succeeded in get
ting through the German barbed wire.
At this point we were only ten feet
from the German trenches. II we were
discovered, we were like rats In trap.
Our way was cut off unless we ran
along the wire to the Narrow lane we
had cut through. With our hearts In
our mouths we waited fer the three
tap signal to rush the German trench.
Three taps had gotten about halfway
down the line when suddenly about ten
to twenty German star shells were
fred all along the trench and landed
In the barbed wire in rear of us, turn
ing night into day and silhouetting US
against the wall of light made by the
flares. In the glaring light we were
confronted by the following unpleasant
scene.
All along the German trench, at
about three-foot intervals, stood big
PrussiaH guardsman with his rife at
the aim, and then we found out why
We had not been challenged when the
man sneezed and the barbed wire had
been improperly cut. About three feet
In front Of the trench they had con-
single fence of barbed wire
and we knew our chances were one
thousand to one of returning alive.
We could not rush their trench on ac-
count of this second defense. Then

,J.soats Have Murdered Thousands.


There is a danger lest familiarity,
even with such monstrous crime as
unrestricted U-boat warfare should
breed indifference to its enormity,
says an exchange. Therefore, 1t Ia
well to bear In mind that, except when
the attack Is made on fighting ships or
transports carrying fighting men, the
torpedoing of ships and sending men
to their death far out at sea, is simply
murder. unredeeIned by any extenuat-
Ing circumstances whatsoever Just
how great a bill of indictment is be-
Ing drawn mp b. the German admiralty
against itself is seen in the statement
given by the government leader In
the house Of commons, that up to Feb
ruary, 1918, the German U-bcats had
killed 14,l20 noncombatant British
men, women and children. This, be II
noted, is exclusive of the murders done
upon peoples of other nationalities.

RIFLE CLUB N0WCOURT CAUST|C TAKING MEMBERS IN ARRAGNMENT

Charging Sam Fred with "ribbing up the action to rid himself of a wife" Judge Lyman yesterday brought to a quick close the proceedings brought by Reyes Quintata to have his daughters marriage to the local merchant set aside as null and void.
 The court charged the husband with being crook" and of being afraid to fight the action because of his alleged relations with the 15year- girl be- fore their marriage.
 Isn't it fact that the reason you have not an attorney is because your lawyer told you your case was rotten and he'd have nothing to do with il? inquired the court
 Fred explained that he did not have sufficient funds to employ a lawyer that he had invested his money in business. His answer raised a stormy reply from the court who held that he should have considered his wife a worth while investment
 Further questioning on the part of Judge Lyman resulted in the admit tance from Fred that he was divorced rom his first wife in January. Mrs Fred securing a decree on the ground or her husbands relations with Librada Reyes. On January 23 the pretty Mex lcan girl and Fred were married in Fl Paso and returned to Phoenix to make their home. Shortly afterward the girls father instituted the annul- rnent action which came up for hearing yesterday. He brought the suit on the ground that the marriage was not legal in Texas as the girls age was IA and that she had not the consent Of her father, her legal guardian.
 The father was represented by coun- sel but was not present and when the court inquired for the girl-wife he was informed that she was somewhere in the city,
 As this effects her very materially she should be present." said the judge as he ordered the husband to bring his wife into court.
 Mrs. Fred, who is an unusually at- tractive young girl had been living With her mother for the two years preceding her marriage although the court had given her into her fathers custody after the Quintana divorce. The tact that the father had become sud- denly interested' had the appearance 1 10 the court that Fred and Quintana were collaborating. By records Mrs Fred proved her age as 15 years and stated she had letter from her father after her marriage in which he ex- | pressed his satisfaction. He regretted | however, that he had not been told be- fore the wedding. that it was to occur
 In dismissing the action the court in. sinuated that Fred had married the slrl to escape prosecution and was now trying to get rid of his wife.
