Prisoner of
Germans Coming
Rev. S. C. Benson, Prison Mate OF
Edith Cavell, At High School Next
Monday Night. y

A lecture that promises to be one
of the most thrilling that has been
heard here will be given Monday ev-
ening, January 28, at the high school
auditorium by Samuel Cranston Ben
son, an ambulance man from Fance
and Belgium.
Rev. Benson was formerly pastor of
a Presbyterian church in Pennsylvan-
la. And he was a pacifist. He did
not believe in war and had said that
there would never be another war.
Even when 1t came he was greatly
opposed to the United States getting
into it. AS a student at Princeton
he was greatly influenced by Wood
row Wilson, yet when President Will
son urged the nation to prepare, Mr.
Benson rented halls and held peace
meetings, denouncing military pre-
paredness.
But at last, Mr.. Benson went to war,
nevertheless, not as a fighter, but as
a rescue worker. He went to carry in
the wounded. When he saw what the
Huns had done to Northern France,
how they laid waste the country and
murdered the population, he changed
his views

gress to declare war" says Mr. Ben

Since his return to America, Mr.

The situation at PetI ograd, follow
ing the forcible dissolution of the Con-

government has become one of the
gravest peril.
A reign of terror is said to be
dawning in the Russian capital with
fresh threats of civil war in the air.
So far the Bolsheviki group hold the
upper hand by exercising a virtual
dictatorship.
There are reports of serious unrest
in the central empires, especially in
Austria Hungary. but the amount of
credence to be attached to them is
problematical. 1t Is pointed out by
military critics that the Austro-Ger-
man governments may be camouflag
ing In allowing the alarming reports
to reach the outside world, in hope
OF allaying war preparations by the

The battle fronts yield little news OF

and the big guns are laundering nll

the fact that the Austro-German
pressure on the Italian front has
slackened, the enemy has not remov-
ed any part of his forces, consisting
of fifty-two and one-half divisions,
eight of which are German, according
to official dispatches this afternoon
from Rome. The dispatches add that
greatest pressure Is exerted by the
invaders on the line that runs be-
tween the Brenta and Piave rivers.
In order to retain the cooperation
of their other allies. Germany and
Austria have called upon the Turks
and Bulgarians to share in the adj

German foreign minister will an

that Germany will not withdraw ncr
troops from the occupied sections ol
