Obituary..

Little Glenn Moore, after ten weeks
of untold suffering, went to his rest
on Friday evening, April 20, 1913, at
500 o'clock, meningitis being the
cause of his death. All that loving
hands could do was done, but we had
to say goodbye"
Glenn q. Moore was born July 3,
1907; died April 20, 1918, age 10
years, 8 months and % days, He
leaves with broken hearts, father,
mother, two brothers, two grand
fathers, two grandmother and many
other relatives.
Glenn was very afectionate son,
always wanted to be at home. He was
in the fifth grade in school, was an apt
scholar, was always punctual in his
school work. We cannot now see why
these things should be, but somewhere,
sometime, we'll understand.

planned for the teacher and pupils.
About II o'clock the cars began 10 ar.
rive.-soon more than rs people were
ready for the bounteous feast which
the good ladies had prepared and
placed on three long tables in the

has more interested patrons than Lin
coin. as nearly all the men In the dia.
trict left their work and came.
After all had eaten more than Mr..
Hoover would approve of, the teacher
invited everyone upstairs, where the
children gave a well prepared patri-
all.
The patrons all expressed them.

NO OFFICIAL REPORT

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1S.-There was no announcement here today re- garding the delivery of the fleet of battleships, battle cruisers and light cruisers which Germany was required under the terms of the armistice to surrender today to the associated na- tions. Nor was there any informa- ton as to the names of the ports at which the vessels were to be interned.
 There was much speculation as to the final disposition of the ships, but in the absence of any official informa- tion, many officers thought that this matter would be left until the peace conference meets. The armistice pro- vided that the vessels were to be dis armed before they left Germany and that they were to be interned at neu- tral or allied ports as the associated governments might direct with only care takers on board.
 Publication of the names of the bat tleships and cruisers were designated by the associated governments. re- Yeals that Germany is stripped of at least half of the fleet of dreadnaughts which 1t had in commission or build ing when the war began and practical ly all of its battle cruisers.
 The dreadnaughts Kronprinz Will helm, Grosser Kurfuerst, Markgraf and Konig are of the same type. each 5S0 feet long and of 26,0O0 tons. They were designed for a speed of 2S knots and had just been completed when the war began. They were armed with ten 12-inch and fourteen 5.9 inch guns.

GERMAN DISPATCH SAYS SHIPS LEFT PORT YESTERDAY FOR UNKNOWN DESTINATIONS; WILL BE MET AT SEA BY BRITISH GRAND FLEET AND PILoTED

LONDON, Sunday, Nov IT British the greatest naval surrender which the world has ever witnessed.
 A great fleet of German battle ships, battle cruisers and light cruis- CTS and destroyers will leave port Monday morning at o'clock for an unknown destination. They will be met by the British fleet, accompanied by American and French representa- tiYes and conducted to their destina- tion.
 A Berlin telegram received in Ans terdam gives this list of the vessels to be handed over:
 Battleships-Kaiser, Kaiserin, Kon- ig, King Albert, Kronprinz Wilhelm. Prinzregent Luitpold, Markgraf, Gros- ser Kurfuerst. Bayern, Konig and Frederick der Crosse.
 Battle cruisers-Hindenburg, Der flinger, Seydlitz, Moltke and von der Tam.
 Light cruisers-Bremen, Drummer, Frankfurt. Koeln, Dresden and Elm den
 The German cruiser Dresden was sunk off Falkland islands by the Brit ish under Admiral Sturdee, while the Emden was sunk in the Indian Ocean after it had raided shipping in the far east. It is probable that old ships had been given the names of the ships sunk or that new ships have been built to replace them.

Total of Pledges Reported on At Banquet Served for Workers was $57, ,390.48 and More Expected

Reports of united war work cam paign committees made last night at the Y. M C. A. put the district again lover the top" More than 150 per cent subscription was the result of the final tabulation, showing a total of pledges of $57, 7,390.4S. At the end of the two days remaining campaign it is anticipated this sum will have been increased several hundreds of dollars.
 Called on again the district has re- sponded willingly and freely. In four Liberty loans now the district has oversubscribed In Red Cross drives, campaigns for the Y. M. c. A, '. W. c. A., Knights of Columbus, Belgian relief, and other causes, the residents of the multiple cities of the Mule mountains have replied with hearty good will and a surplus of funds. The united war work campaign has been another victory in the war for the district, and when workers last night saw the final figures totalled on the boards. they cheered long and loud.
 Prior to the receipt of reports the women of the district who have had in hand the luncheons served a ban quet as closing tribute to the work CTS. The banquet was followed by the reading by team captains of their total subscriptions. AS the figures were marked on the big blackboard cheers greeted each captains state ment of results.

LONDON, Nov. 1e.-The first Amer jean troops to depart homeward as a result Of the signing of the srmistice wll be 1e,oO0 men stationed in Eng land. The American army expects to start the first ehipIoad of thsse sol diers homeward within a week and to have all the men on their way back to the United States ten days later.
 The plans for clearing England of American troops are incomplete, but it is desired to remove these men i'm mediately as some shipping is avail able for this purpose. Most of the 1S.O0O men are helping the British air forces.
 The American hospital units will be left fin England until policy for ear ing for future cases of illness among the Americans has been decided upon.
 The belief is expressed at army headquarters that very few Americans win be left long in England, as it is thought that the hospitals in France will suffice for future needs.

WAR COST TOTAL UNBELIEVABLE IN
 ITS GREATNESS
Now Amounts to IFS Billions and Will Reach 200 Bill lions Before End of Year k. Estimated
CBy Review Leased wire)

WASHINGTON, Nov. IS. - The direct cost of the war for all belligerents to last May 1 was reported at about S175,O00. 100000 by the federal reserve board bull letin, issued today, and it is esti- mated the cost will amount to nearly S2OO, ,OOO, 100000 before the end of this year. These calcula- tions were compiled by the board from various sources and while their accuracy is not vouched for, the board believes the figures are substantially correct.
 For purely military and naval purposes it is estimated that all belligerents, had spent about $132, 2,00O,0O0,00O to May l, or about three-fourths of the total war cost. The balance represent ed interest on debt and other in- direct war expenses.
 f1ON lue COSl dluOuHtcu HUH year to year is illustrated by tab ulations showing that the mobili- zation and the first five months of the war cost all belligerents about s1O,00O,00O.000. In 1915 the expenses jumped to $26.000.- 100000; in 1916 they increased to S3S,0CO 100000 and in 1917 they were estimated at s60,000. 100000. This years expenses have run little above last years rate.
 About s150. 100000. 900 of the total war cost has been raised by war loans of various nations and comparatively little by taxation. The public debt of the principal entente allies is calculated at ap- proximately S105.000.000.000. CT more than twice as much as the aggregate debt of the central powers, set at S45.000, ,000.000. This does not take into consider ation debt incurred since last May.

Rr Review Leased Wlrel

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1S-Presi-
 dent Wilson will attend the open
 ing sessions of the peace confer
 ence. This was announced to-
 night officially He will go i'm
 mediately after the converting of
 the regular session of congress on
 December ?.
 This official statement was issued at the White House:
 "The president expects to sail for France immediately after the opening of the regular session of congress for the purpose of taking part in the dis cussion and settlement of the main features of the treaty of peace. 1t is not likely that it will be possible for him to remain throughout the ses- sions of the formal peace conference, but his presence at the outset is neces- sary in order to obviate the manifest disadvantages of discussion by cable In determining the greater outlines of the final treaty about which he must necessarily be consulted. He will, or course, be accompanied by delegates who will sit as the representatives of the United States throughout the conference
 "The names of the delegates be presently announced"
 How long the president will remain abroad he himself probably cannot say now. The time for the converting of the peace conference has not yet been announced, but the general belies here is that it cannot be assembled before late in December at the earli- est If such proves the case, the presi- dent will be absent from the country for at least a month and probably longer.

As the reports were received several teams announced that their records are not yet complete. and that they will have additional funds to swell their totals before the close of the two remaining days of the campaign. It is anticipated that these additions will raise the districts total to near s5S,000.
 The total reported at the meeting last night represents more than 150 per cent of the minimum requested when the drive opened. and a little more than the increased demands which were made on every part of the nation when the armistiee was signed Originally this district was assigned to raise s97,500. When peace loomed suddenly leaders in the welfare work for soldiers foresaw larger demands on the seven agencies of the united war work, and immediately asked the entire nation to oversubscribe 50 per cent. This raised the districts quota to t5e.200. Workers were advised that this total must be raised, and the district responded with the same aud hANh hoo marked its giving fin all past cam paigns.
 AS an example of the manner in which the residents of the district have sacrificed to support the cam paign. Chairman J. C. Ryan last night called the attention of the workers to the gift of Dad and Mother Stetson. Dad Stetson Is now operating a jit- ney in the district Each he and his wife gave $5 to the united war work campaign. They have already given four sons, who are now in France.
 Tn behalf of the workers of the Shattuck and Denn mines 1t was an. nounced at the meeting that these or ganizations. with 500 men. have sub scribed 100 per cent, each man giv- ing at least one days shift, with an average for the entire organization of
