AN oLD.TIME FLAVOR
To Glenugie Clubs Annual Fall Festival
Saturday Evening.

Twa neeps with an abundance Of meal
an'-ale, along with the familiar rick in
miniature and the clyck sheaf gave a
strong atmosphere of old Scotland to the
annual fall festival Of the Glenugie club
in Clan Gordon hall Saturday evening
Memories of many's the Draw night on
the home moors crowded to the fore as
the merrymakers assembled for the year
" celebration. Of the harvest. Nearly 75
couples were present and in point of at
tendance as well as in other respects, the
observance of meal-an'-ale night was one
Of the most successful within the ken of
the oldest Glenugian. James X. Pirie Of
Graniteville was the host, and his prep
arations for the event left nothing to be
desired
The hall was attractiyely decked out in
a garb suggestive of autumn. Near the
stage was a table on which were ar
ranged huge bowl of meal an ale, the
neeps, the rick, the clyck sheaf and the
stock Of kale There was a surfeit of re-
freshments. just before the dancing be-
gan, President Charles Keith called the
merrymakers to order and then ensued a
brief program. Mr. Pirie was warmly
felicitated for his success as host
Songs enliyened the exercises and bright
little speeches were let loose. Music for
the dancers was furnished by fiddler
and pianist, and the program that n
tinued till midnight included some of the
reels that had their origin in Scotland,
During the past year the Glenugie club
has made marked progress in effecting an
excellent working organization of the
men and women who claim the Scotch
district 81 Ugie for their homeland That
the club is now in thriving estate is
due largely to the energy of the officers,
of whom the following had charge of the
harvest festivals. Charles Keith, presi-
dent, Alex Matthews, James Freeland,
James Forrest, Alex Cowie and George
Ralph.

WELCOMED IN METZ.
Louis Forest, French Editor, Returns to
Native Town.

Paris. Nov lS.-Louis Forest, one OF
the editors OF the Matin, succeeded in
entering Metz, his home town, yester-
day He was the first Frenchman to en-
ter since hostilities ceased. He was Civ
en- a lively welcome by the populace,
although German soldiers and officials
still were in the city.
A revolt occurred IN Metz on Nov. 10
and soldiers council was formed un-
der the leadership Of two Socialist work
men and non-commissioned officer. The
membership of the council was made up
Of few workmen and many soldiers.
Governor Won Lequis attempted to re-
sist and marched a squadron Of caval-
ry with machine guns to the places Des
Armes. He ordered the cavalry to charge
but they fraternized with the mutin-
eers. The governor ordered all the au-
thorities to place themselves at the serv-
ice of the revolutionists.
All went well at first, but the influ-
ence of the council proved evanescent
and the council lost all popularity When
it was seen that the troops would not
be able to get away at once, the soldiers
got out of hand and pillaged the mill
tary stores. A civic guard was formed
but on Saturday one Of the last German
regiments TO leave, broke into cham
pagne factory at Molines. There was
trouble and the civic guard had to fight
the drunken soldiers. The city is sur
rounded by armed bands, and the popu-
lation is anxious for the arrival of the
French troops.

DIED FROM JOY
AT DEIIVERANCE
Dean of Mulhausen, Alsace,
Overcome When French
Entered the City
GRAND RECEPTION
BY INHABITANTS
Message Sent to Paris Tell
ing of Peoples Strong
Attachment

Mulhausen, Nov. Is (Havas) No
words can picture the triumphal entrance
Of the French troops into this city nor
express the wild joy of the people who
crowded the streets to applaud their lib
orators. Flowers, tobacco and cockades
were thrown to the soldiers as they
marched along
General Hirschauer, who is native
Of Mulhausen, headed his troops.
Men and women rushed forward and
kissed the folds of the flag borae by the
344th infantry. The cheers grew until
the troops arrived at the city hall, where
the city authorities received General
Hirschauer and his staff
The joy Of the population was sad
dened when the Rev. Cotti, the dean of
Mulhausen, was overcome by emotion at
the official reception to the French off
GERS and dropped dead. He had been for
many years a champion Of the French
cause in Alsace.
After the official ceremonies, the gov
ernment Of the city addressed telegram

GERMAN PROPAGANDA
is AGAIN ACTIVE
II Is Being Directed to the End That
More Lenient Terms Be Given to
Germany at the Peace
Conference.

Washington, d. G., Nov. 49,. Govern.
ment agents see evidences that German
propaganda machinery in the United
States is being put in working order
again to promote sentiment Of leniency
'toward Germany in peace terms. Conse-
quently department of justice officials
to-day warned that the public should
remain watehful against resumption of
organized propaganda by interests for
merly actively pro-German and for past
year passive. Concerted movement is
apparent, officials said, in utteranees of
many individuals, few organizations for
merly active for German interests, and
some newspapers. There is no organized
leadership, it is believed, but local in
terests have taken their cue from OH
cial pleas from Germany for leniency in
armistice and final peace terms
Illustrating the attitude that the war
and its dangers are not yet over, it is
stated that department Of Justice agen-
cies have ordered the internment of some
Germans since the armistice was signed
week ago.
Official reports show German represen-
tatiyes in various parts of the world still
actively engaged in spreading propa-
ganda to create and enhance feeling Of
hostility toward the United States and
the allied countries. Eckhardt, the no.
torious German ambassador at Mexico
City, again is reported doing his utmost
to make Mexico hostile to the United
States and is able to have misleading
articles published in the senii-official
Mexican papers. Recently he had pub
lished throughout Mexico that the Ger
man army had not been defeated and
that the German navy still was fighting
the allied navies.
