Annual Report of Kenosha Humane
Society for 1917.
AS has been my custom in former
years, so have during this year, tried
to educate the public along humane
lines and rather than make frequent
arrests I have demonstrated with of
tenders, as humane education is better
than prosecution.
The Importance of humane teaching
among the young is evidenced by the
following resolution which was passed
! bv the Teachers Institute of Floyd
County, Kentucky: "That we organ
ize a Humane Society in every school
in the county for instructing the chill
dren in kindness to dumb animals.''
We also learn that bands of mercy
have increased in number throughout
the United States until there are now
109, 1886.
We have in our county eight such
bands.
Ny line Of work this year has been
quite varied as will be seen by the
following list of cases handled:

HONOR LUSITANIA
Today Is Anniversary of the
Sinking.
London Papers Note No Hun
Repentance Yet

London, May THE Lusitania
anniversary is commemorated By the
newspapers today with big captions
and special articles recalling the
crime which the British public is not
likely to forget
The Daily Graphic in an editorial
laments that the public apparently is
becoming dulled to the horror of the
Lusitansa atrocities. 1t asks why
there is not a commemorative pro-
cession this year as there was last
year. If there is not, it asks, will its
absence not be proof of the extent to
which Germany's many crimes
against humanity have deadened the
worlds sense Of tenderness. 1t adds:
1T is because the torpedoing of the
Lusitania summed UP in one Geld
blooded act the savage ruthlessness of
the German race tina. the anniversary
of that foul deed should be celebrated
when every other commemoration is
forgotten"
Germany has not changed since
then" says the Daily Mail. That is
the important thing for an of US to
remember. The 'repentant' Germany
Ct which our pacifists prattle simply
does not exist. She still glories in the
sinking of the Lusitania and the
butchery of women and children and
will repeat that and every other afro
city again at the first profitable op-
portunity. That is only one of the
hundred reasons why the war must
go on until she is hammered into
Sc nifty"

firm TO The END
British LabOs Pledges Loyalty
Against Hun.
German Labor Is KaiSer's Par
rot, Says Roberts.

London, May 7.-rGeorge H. Roberts,
minister of labor speaking at Nor
witch yesterday declared he was still
strongly opposed to any conferences
with the laboring class in Germany.
He mentioned the conference in Eng
land last week of representatives of the
American Federation of Labor. These
men, he said. had come to England
with very definite instructions to re-
sist every maneuver to bring them into
contact with enemy citizens.
The minister said he had been crit
icised because he opposed attempts to
arrange conferences with the German
socialists. He could not differenriate
between one class or party in Germany
and another. He knew the German
social democrats and they changed ac-
cording to the course of the war.
When things seemed to be doing well
for the Germans they talked Of in
IDENTITIES but when things were less
hopeful their stomach contracted and
their consciences expanded and they
began to talk of peace.
''Stand Firm" He Says.
Mr. Roberts said he had made this
statement to his friends from Amer
lea:
Stand firm. Do not be lured into
any conference where Germany is rep
resented because if any German social
ference you may be sure they simply
are there as representatives of the
kaiser. I would sooner go to visit the
devil in hell than to meet them"
Victory, Mr.. Roberts concluded
must rest with Great Britain and her
allies as assuredly as the tides would
continue to ebb and flow.

Topeka HAS BATTALION
New Company OF Guards Provides City
With Well Organized Force.

At Monday evenings drill. Company
b, Kansas State Guard was divided in
to two companies The new company,
to be known as Company D, will be
commanded by E. c. Gilligan, who
has been first lieutenant of Company
B.
With the formation of Company
u, Topeka has a full size battalion of
state guards, and q major will soon be
appointed to command it,
The reason for dividing Company
B was that it had attained an active
membership of nearly $50, which is
enough to make two large peace foot
ing companies of infantry. and it was
desired SIS soon as possible, to have
q complete battalion.
As far as possible Companies and
D will be made up OF one platoon each,
of men subject to the draft and one
platoon of men not 30 subject It
has been arranged to give the draft
men an opportunity for intensive
training by providing a second drill
night every week for all who desire it.
All men who want the second drill are
directed to meet at the north steps

BIC BRITISH loss
3S,691 Casualties Reported for
Last Week.
Heaviest Since Days of 1916
Offensive Fighting.

London, May british casualties
reported during the week ending to-
day reached a total of 1851.
OF this number 6,556 officers and
men were killed or died of wounds
and 32,136 were wounded or reported
missing. The casualties were divided
az follows:
Killed or died of wounds: Officers.
4s9; men, 6,056; wounded or missing:
Officers, .1,S59; men, 30,277.
British casualties reported during
April. starting with low figures in the
first week, began to mount rapidly
thereafter, so that the total for the
n onth reached STATS. The returns
from the heavy fighting against the
German offensive in late March and
April are now apparently in full flow.
Figures for casualties reported for
separate weeks have not been made
available with anything like Uniform
ity during the war, but it appears
probable that those reported during
the current week are the heaviest in
any single week of the fighting. In
the days of the Somme battle of 19l
however. the losses reported in Au-

average of more than $4,000 has been
