MAKES DARING ESCAPE
Newspaper Woman Tells Thrill
ing Tale of Adventure.
Declares She Prefers Death to Life In
World Controlled by VIcto-
rious Germans.

| New York.-A thrilling tale Of ad,
venture within the German lines in
Brussels, Louvain and Zeebrugge, in
Guiding an escape from Ostend In a
sailboat while pursued by an airplane,
was brought back by Miss B. Bennett
Burleigh, a daring English newspaper
woman, who went lover there" to see
things as they are.
"I'd just want to die If we had to
live In world where the German was
victorious" she said, her eyes blazing.
'I've seen them and l know how they
treat the women who come into their
power. Everything you read about
atrocities is true, and more than can
ever be told. And it's going on in Bel
GUM today"
Belgium Is being Systematically de-
stroyed by the Germans, she declared.
Food Is scarce and in Bruges the Bel
gians have substituted rats and mice
as their daily subsistence, she said.
II went everywhere on foot" ex-
planned Miss Burleigh; "that's why
they didn't suspect me. Whenever ]
met German sentry l began picking
flowers and they took me for native.
later in the season I skirted the
seacoast, retreating from town to town
as the Germans came in. I stood on
the bridge at Ostend and watched
them march in. Then I took a nurse
who was friend of mine and an old
man found us sailboat by which we
went by sea to Dunkirk. An airplane
swooped down on us, but fortunately
the British guns opened fire on it, SO
we were saved.
"There can be no peace until the !
Germans are beaten. They must be
pushed out of Belgium before we talk |
Of peace, else we shall have to do 1t |
all over again in fifteen years." she

MEMBER OF THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
sAND SPOKANE HEADS THE LIST'

The citizens of ST. Maries Idaho, believe in avoiding
trouble by being prepared for it,
When the l. w. w. mob defied law and order Friday
morning by attacking Sheriff E. B. Noand the citizens
were prepared for instant and cool-headed action The
mob controlled without injury to anybody, peace
was restored and terms reached with the offenders
which raised the towns prestige 100 per cent
place to start mob
ST. Mares is to be congratulated for it's application
of common foresight to the troublesome I. W. W.
tion The town profited immensely by it in this
ency. wait and see" policy would easily have led
to bloodshed and netted costly lot of criminal
lions.
There other towns in the Inland Empire-and
Spokane heads the list-whch might well borrow the
st. Maries policy.
And it does not involve merely issue between law
and order 1t reaches also the bread and butter issue
in thousands of homes of the Inland Empire which
dependent the life of the industry. If logging
camps and mills shut down, if a reign of terror
started lumber districts, of the largest
payro1s of the Inland Empire will be wiped out And
industry crippled Americas strength in will be
cut down
Facing such conditions to continue the hands OFF,
policy for Spokane would be not only weak and shift
less. it would be cowardy, un-American, per1lous-

EDGE HILL.

Edge Hill, the scene of the first
battle in the Civil war, is to be
opened up by system of light rail-
ways, says the London Chronicle. The
object is the development of the min
eral resources Of South Warwick
shire. 1t is proposed to connect
Shakespeare's homeland with Burton
Dassett, from whose church steeple
Cromwell, according to tradition,
watched the progress Of the fight. 1t
was at Edge Hill that the parliament
tarians seized the royal standard,
but it was soon recaptured by an Off
Ger, for whom Charles l, in 1913, or
dered gold medal to be struck. To
soldiers doing good service on the
field he also gave medals. These
were, it is believed, the first war
medals to be issued to English sol
diers.

FREEZES HELPFUL TO SOILS
Aid PulVerize Broken Ground, Cause
Particles - crumbIe and Vese.
table Matter to Break.

There Is considerable advantage In
severe freezes during winter. While
cold weather makes expenses some
what heavier unless the farmstead is
well arranged for comfort, both for
man and animals. the soil is always
benefited by freezes.
Farmers readily recognize that after
hard freezes the soil is in better con-
dltion. Freezes help pulverlze broken
ground; they cause the particles TO
crumble, vegetable matter TO dlsinte-
crate and break down. There is also
considerable check to the Increase OF
insects. Many insects In the pupa
stage are killed by very cold weather
and this means less increase the fol.
lowing spring and summer. However,
there are some that stand very low
temperatures without injury.
The best way to get the full benefits
of winter SHOWS and winter freezes is
10 have the land broken.

Of a man whose. work was once ia

Timothy Swan, born in Worcester,

The tune mentioned was composed
by him about 1884 and was pub

came into favor as the At tune for

JOHN BURNS EARLIER DAYS
AstonIshed Listeners With Statement
That He Had Taken No Food or
Drink In Twenty-Four Hsurs.

In his 'Record Of An Adventurous
life" II. NJ. Hyndman, the veteran
Socialist and war patriot, tells an
amusing story of John Burns earlier
days.
Several Socialists and labor lead
era had lunched at my house writes
Mr.. Hyndmsn) preparatory to at
tending a meeting Of the unemployed
on the Thames embankment. All Of
us "did ourselves we'll" Burns par
tieularly distinguished himself as q
trencherman.
Judge, then, Of our astonishment
when the first sentences Of his speech
at the meeting ran as follows:
"The upper classes tell us that the
unemployed are loafers and Sastrels.
Now I'll do a days work with any
one. Yet here / stand as unem-
ployed and as hungry as any Of you,
for neither bite nor sup has passed
my lips"-and his powerful voice
rang far beyond the crowd-for
four-and-twenty hours"
1t came like a bombshell on us all
(adds the author), and how Cham
pion, Jack Williams and the rest Of
us kept from laughter l do not know.
