WILD HOGS TREE
MAN FOR FOUR HOURS

Whitesville, Del, Oct. ~24.-Treed
by wild hogs, Albert Jarman, of
Whitesville, spent several very uncom-
Portable hours in the crotch of a
small tree until friends rescued him
after driving the hogs off.
Jarman has large herd of hogs
which he allows to run wild in wood
On his farm. Every year he goes out
and shoots down two or three for his
winter meat and lets the remainder
run. Yesterday he went out and, after
killing three, started to drag them off
when the herd attacked him. He sour
ried up small tree just in. time to
escape them, and, sitting in the crotch
shot two more, but was unable to
drive them away.
The hogs started to chew the bot
tom of the sapiing up which he had
climbed, end for several hours he sat
there, afraid to move. Friends who
knew he had gone for hogs came in
tie nick of time, and with dogs drove
Tie hogs off, killing two more. One Of
the dogs also was killed.

Mas. POOR LIVER
AND BACON PART.

The inseparable have been separa-
ted.
The devoted have been divorced.
Liver has been ruthlessly torn from
bacon and bacon has been heartlessly
sundered from liver.
And The Food Administration is to
blame.
After countless years of happy as
ISOLATION liver and bacon will never
appear together again-that is, not
until the war is over and food con-
servation is a thing of the past.
Included in the twelve general food
conservation orders, just effective
was one little paragraph which no one
dreamed was as irnportans as it it. It
said that one kind of meat should be
served to a person at one time. I'M

a.Hungary was merged in the Ger
man military establishment.
That sealed his doom. He might
have delivered his country from the
war, and then, granting autonomy to
the several nationalities over which
he reigned, have assured to himself
and his posterity the throne of Fed
eral Empire and the devoted loyalty
of the Slav majority of his subjects.
He was not'a big enough man for the
opportunity. He, was scared and be-
came the vassal Of Germany, and he
will 60 down into ruin with Ger
many; but he will go first and into
deeper ruin. Germany will be de-
priped of some of it's ill-gotten provin-
ces, but it will still be great nation.
Austria-Rungary will simply be re.
solved into its component parts, and
Charles will cease to be an Emperor,
rat the most he will remain the SOW
ereien of the Teutonic part Of his
present Empire, which does not con-
tain more than 90 per cent. Of its
population.

Miss Hooker, who was operating q

when the Germans first advanced. She

CASE or EMPEROR CHARLES
not more serious,

Austria and Hungary, individually
and collectively, receive their death
blow in the refusal of the President
10 grant them an armistice because
since his speech of January s the
United States has recognized the in
dependence Of the Czecho- Slovaks.
The National Council of the Slav
races subject to Austria and Hun
gary have declared their independence
and their recognition as q nation by
the United States and the Allies in
sures the dismemberment Of both Aus
tria and Hungary. Northern Slovakia
comprises Bohemia, Moravia, part
Of. Silcsia and the northwest corner
of Hungary. Croatia, too. has been in
corporated into Hungary.
As contemporary says. Emperor
Charles is a small man upon whom a
great opportunity was conferred. He
came to the throne free from all per-
sonal responsibility for the war. he
came when it was apparent that Aus
tria-Hungary and Germany could not
win the war. and the utmost they
could hope for was compromise
peace, with a strong probability that.
they would get nothing but the terms
of the Allies. He came to the throne
when his subjects, hopeless and war
weary, were eager for peace on any
terms. He yielded to their wishes so
far as to make covert effort through
his brother-in-law to get separate
peace by Offering to support Frances
claim to !Alsace-Lorraine. A few
months later he procured the passage
of the "peace without annexations"
resolution in the German Rsichstag.

became public he .repudiated it, abased

DECREASE IN DEATHS

There has been decided, decrease
in deaths in ALEXANDRIA during the
past twenty-four hours, although the
number of cases of influenza and
pneumonia which often follows show
that the malady is still with US. Bet
tor conditions are reported in Wash
ington and il, places in Virginia, es-
pecially Richmond and Lynchburg. In
language of scripture, let US thank
Go dand take courage. A cold wave
IS said to be in tranisitu, and some OF
the hest medical men in other cities
believe "a sudden drop in the tempera-
ture and few days Of wintry weather
will arrest the contagion.
. Our city has passed through ter
rible experience during the past four
or five weeks. Numbers of our people
mostly young-have been cut down,
while in more populous cities thous-
ands many at the portals of life have
fallen under the cruel scythe.
AS has been the case elsewhere,
sad scenes have. been in evidence in
Alexandria. In many cases every
member of a household has been pros
trated, each rendered helpless and
unable to minister to one another.
Early Yesterday morning neighbors
who visited stricken household found
the dead body of young man in one
room, the father, mother and daughter
i'll, and in another room a young
woman and her infant child suffering
from the dreaded flu. Those alive
were unable to render much-needed
AID to each olnef.
In other places where dead ones
have been in houses during the past
few days other members Of The fam
lily were i'll and unable to rnder as
sistance.
Let US mingle our prayers for the
rapid passing away of the disma!
cloud which still IL hovers over our
community.
While our lot has been est in
America, we have not BIN called upon
to face plague and famine, as mas
been the case with peoples of other
lands, who are not only suffering from
pestilence but are in need of the neces-
saries of life. We have, So far, re-
ceived our daily bread, although it is
our lot to suffer from pestilence. Let
us be thankful that our conditions are
not more serious.

HUN sUBTEETY.

Now that the Allies have regaine !

ncluding the ports of20stend and Zee

marines have been wont to sally forth
On their piratical excursions, the init
nation comes that in the reply Of the
.Kaiser's Government to President Will
sons recent note the suggestion may
he made for an amelioration in the
conditions of U-boat warfare. OF
course, the right to wage war in that
peculiarly Hulnish fashion will not
be entirely yitided, but so long as
Germany has only such distant ports
as W;lheln,shaven and Helgoland from
wlIi:h to dispatch the submarines sh:
may be prepared to listen to the die
tates of humanity and limit nc
operations.

reason for this change in tactics is o.
v.cus, Al invasion of the Rhine Valley
towns by the Allies looms up before
the Germans as horrible possibility
q the near future. From the foul

In this connection the Philadelphia
Record s:ys if the Kaiser and the
Great German General Staff imagine
that anybody is going to be deceived
y. such tricks they have another guess
coming. The comparatively peaceful
methods followed in the retreats from

simply be added proof to the Allies
that the ruin inflicted upon SO many

WILSON'S ULTiMATUM

2,
Pre- President Wilson has Informed the
German Government that ne mas
transmitted its correspondence to hlm
seeking an arnistice and peace to the
s,aIlies. with the suggestion that II
fnrsa,l governments are disposed to Ell
feet peace upon the terms and the
principles indicated, their military au-
y:sers and the military advisers OF
The United States be asked to suo-
nit the necessary terms of such an
arfnfistice as will fully protect the in
terests Of the peoples involved.
iitsHe says that should such terms OF
.armlstice be suggested, acceptance by
Germany win Will afford the best con
made evidence of her uneqaivocal ac-
csBtance of the terms and principles
ild peace.
The President says that having re-
ceived the solemn and explicit assur-
ance of the German Government that
Sc unrese-Yedly accepts the terms OF
peace ana principles enunciated by
bin, and that the desire to discuss the
6etails OF the application emanates
rot from those who hitherto dictated
the German policy but from ministers
who speak for the overwhelming ma
icrity OF the German people, and hav-
ing received explicit promise that the
humane rules of civilized warfare will
be observed by the German armed
forces, the President feels he cannot
decline to take up the question OF IN
,afmistice, with the Allies.
Il At the same time that the Presidents
sseply to Germany was made public
the White House gave out correspond
!, eace between Secretary Baker and
aeesidens SWilscn showing that more
a taan 100000 American soldiers have
sIfabarkeidT q, to participate in the war
lpgerseas. ,.>n
s!ts 1.-The President says that significant
and important as the constitutional
changes seem to be which are spoken
IF by the German foreign secretary
"a does not appear that the principle
ss a government responsible to the
Norman people has yet been fully or
PERMANENTLY worked out. He reiterates
taat the nations of the world do not

tbf German policy and gives warning
HAT if tie United States must dell
Nth military iii Fy1 masters and the mon
archical autocrats Of Germany now or
later, it must demand not peace ncgo-
tiations but surrender
1t was not necessary for President
Wilson to say more than this. The
Simple declaration is sufficient to strip
all German peace proposals of every
vestige OF hypocrisy which has camcu-
tagged them. The President has spoken
With the utmost fnality that there
can be no peace with autocracy except
sr,!e peace shat comes on the heeiS OF
unconditional surrender.
& president Wilson's latest note comes
