The Kafir may have his corn, the

a square meal. He begins with tortoise

of ostrich eggs, all washed down with
brandy and followed by native fruit.
Still the historians tell us the Hotten-

where Christmas comes in the mid
summer of December, what can one ex-
meet? Even then we have not account

partly on account of the very high

Gregory Brings Hanging of Ger
man in illinois Before
Cabinet
CONFERs WITH PRESIDENT
Robert P. Prayer Was Killed for Max
in Alleged DisIoyaI utterances
to Miners at Mary
willie, Ill.

Washington, April 8.-Attorney Cen
eral Gregory took to the cabinet meet
In on Friday a report of the lynching
of a German, Robert p. Prayer, at
CoIlinsville, Ill, for discussion with
| President Wilson. The government is
expected to denounce the mob's law
less act and to express the hope that
there will be no repetition elsewhere.
Officials made plain that they de-
plored the incident. both because OF
the effect in this country and also be-
| cause it is feared reprisals may be
made in Germany on Americans.
Until power is given the federal gov
eminent, as provided in pending bill,
to punish persons making disloyal ut
terances, department of justice officials
fear more lynchings.
This outbreak was the first report
reaching here of such extreme mob
| violence to German, although officials
who have observed the general feel
ing against Germans have feared such
occurrences.
Springfield H., April Sin state
Governor Lowden declared he would
use the force of his office to see that
persons guilty of the lynching were
brought to punishment. To this emo
representatives of the Office of the at
torney general and the adjutant gen.
eral were dispatched to the scene or
the mob violence.
If the regularly constituted peace Of
fcers in Madison county and vicinity
were not able to maintain order, the
governor said, there would be nothing
left for him to do but declare martial
law.
Collinsville, H., April 8.-RObert +.
Prayer, forty-five years old and Ger
man born, after twice escaping mob
violence, was hanged to tree on
Thursday by mob of $50 persons,
who declared he had made disloyal ut
terances. He was dragged from the
basement of the city hall here where
he was hiding, escorted barefooted
through the main street of the city TO
point one mile west of here on the
road leading to st. Louis, and there
his body was found later dangling TO
the limb of tree.
Prayer was a coal miner and on
Thursday was In Maryville, ILL.,, where
he addressed miners on socialism. In
his talk he is said to have made re-
marks derogatory to President VIII
SON Miners there became angry and
when they threatened to do him bodily
harm no nScaned fo COI1inSVillo his
home Some of the miners, however.
followed him and described his &C
lions to local persons. A crowd soon
gathered and Prayer was taken from
his home and led barefooted through
the street waving an American flag.
He was dragged down the street and
beyond the city limits, the crowd
threatening to shoot IL the officers ap-
proac hed. The lynching followed.

JAPs LAND At vLADIv0sT0K
Washington Told Troops Will Be Used
to Protect Life and Property
Russ Kill Japanese.

washington, April Standing of
Japanese naval forces at Vladivostok
to protect life and property was re-
ported to the state department by the
American consul there. The action
followed an attack on Japanese of
ficer by five armed Russians, who,
upon being refused money, killed one
Japanese and wounded two others.
The force landed was said to be small
and, only sufficient to prevent further
disorders.
IT was learned officially that the
American government attaches no po-
litical significance to this incident. In
other words, it is not regarded as be-
ing connected in any way with the
much-discussed possibility of japanese
intervention in Siberia.
