 OF HATE

LONDON, Dec, l4- (Correspon. dence of The Associated Press)- Fragments obtained of the output of German songs and poems of the war were, Nvid, aS were their forerunnerS. with hate.
 Now burn, O hate, flame forth.
 For We have loved too long,
 Hate is no sin, or if it is
 God pardon us the wrong
 This is the beginning of piece of verse whose kinship to the notorious Hymn of Hate" is evident. Then fol- lows a catalogue of the Allies sins, the foremost of which is "cOnsorting with yellow ASiatics." The final out burst runs:
 "So burn, o hate, flame forth!
 Burn even in Deaths house.
 If ever hate should prove sin,
 Sin be Gods law to us."
 The writer signs himself "Wichael,' ' but one Bernard Konig who styles himself King Goar-heart," outdoes him. He indites long poem telling Germany that when her Virgin Sword' had struck down her base and enviouS detractors, she would be called on to execute Justice, without abatement or mercy. Thus: would be called on to execute Justice, without abatement or mercy. Thus:

ing income amounted to $135.6s9.600
or s4O,000,O00 more than in July, 1917.
This record was caused largely by
the 25 per cent increase in freight
rates. 1t was apparent that the rate
advance was more than sufficient to
cover the higher wages and other in
creased operating costs. These re-
ports, however, did not include the
big sums spent for extensions, better
ment, new equipment and other capital
purposes under the railroad admins
tration's billion dollar Improvement
program for the year. Revenues in
July were reported as $46s,379.0 900 as
compared with $34S,393, 900 in July
last year., This included freight re-
ceipts of $327,151. 900, which was
$50, 100000 greater than the record OF
July, 1917. and passenger receipts OF
s104. 100000. which was s30,000,00o
more than. the corresponding figure
last year. Expenses amounted to
1915, S13.000. as compared with $751;
500, 900 in July last year.

An inside investigation recently
conducted by the Wolff Packing COM
pany resulted in a rumor being spread
broadcast thru the city that the pack
ing company had been the victim of
an $1,000 meat steal. Three arrests
were made in the case on information

two of the men arrested have consult
ed with their lawyers and are making
ready to sue the Wolff company for
heavy damages.
In an interview this morning
Charles Wolff. president of the Wolff
Packing company, said: Il have moth
ing to say about the case for publica-

Front, Sept. 20.-Diminishing OF Ger
man effective fighting forces as a re-
suit of the allies hammering this
summer is shown in authoritative in
formation received at American head
qua rters.
The enemy has eighty divi-
sions (about a million men) in re-
serve not counting three Austrian di-
visions, which probably are in the
Metz region. Thirteen of the eighty
seven divisions have had more than a
months rest and are regarded as fit
for immediate service. Twenty have
rested three months. Then there are
the totally rested divisions, which in
clude three first class. six second
class, two third class and two fourth
class. All the others were engaged in
the German attack July Is, or in the
allied counter offensive.
The quality of the rested reserves
| may be shown by the fact that they
have not been used in serious fight
| ing.
The German command is making
requirements from other divisions,
| less rested but apparently~regarded as
possessing better fighting qualities.
Aside from artillery and aviation ac-
1 tivity. the Metz front continues COM
| paratively quiet. The boches attempt

pulsed before they reached our lines

Real 'Wonder-Worke
For Wrinkled Faces

Those who have tried all sorts or So
called s.wrinkle-removers' in vain effort
to lose those unwelcome traces OF age
illness or worry, can scarcely find words
to express their delight with the wonaer-
II a trial. The success of this method is
due not alone to its marvellous effective
feef as we'll as upon the very fine ones
but also to its surprisingly quick action
and its entire harmlessness Its Simple
ity and its Responsiveness are other com
mendable features. for one need only dls-
solve an ounce of powdered saxolite IN =
half pint witch hazel, and battle the race
in this solution. At once remarkable
transformation is beheld.
1t is not only the effect on wrinkles ana
creases that is so noticeable, but facial
contour is remarkably improved and the
face looks much younger. One should be
sure to ask the druggist for the powdered
saxolite. The lotion, being so refreshing
is particularly grateful to tired faces

tons passed at the meeting of the
Retail Merchants division of the
Chamber of Commerce this noon. Nor

chases as soon as possible, preferably
in October or November. The Mer-
chants association at it's meeting this
noon voted that if the people will CO.

that the new order can be carried into
effect without any Inconvenience to
the merchants and without any loss
OF patience and feeling of neglect on
the part of the customers.

PLEA AGAINST MODS
Governor Capper Urges Citizens TIC
Show Respect for Laws.

1.-THE mob spirit. is reprehensib1e
and antagonistic to the spirit of Amer
lean institutions" declared Governor
Arthur Capper in a statement made
public stoday. Our fighting men in
the field and on the seas are not wag-
ing war on unarmed civilians, even of
the enemy country; much less should
we in democratic, liberty loving Kan
sas wage a war of petty persecution
upon any individual or class. Our
courts of law and the duly organized
machinery of government will act
promptly and effectively with all cases
of disloyalty and law breaking.
I'm accordance with the president
request I call upon the people of this
state to cherish that respect for law
and order which is the life of true
democracy and in this time of stress
and excitement to guard against in
justice and evil passions based upon
prejudice and SUSPICION"
