peace offer, received thru press chan

sons reply to the German peace note
by the Liberal Star. which like most
of the liberal newspapers considers
this one Of the first conditions Of peace
with the central powers.
A condition in the reply which is
given great display by the newspapers
is that which asks for guarantees for
the maintenance of the present military
supremacy Of the allied armies.
Satisfaction is expressed to the ref
erence to the continued sinkings by
submarines and the "wanton destruc-
ton in allied territory" while the de-
cision that an armistice must be left to
the military advisers Of the entente ap-
pears to agree with the phrase often

ART COLLECTION
 IS STORED IN A
 FIREPROOF HOUSE

PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 13.-The $4, 5OO,000 art collection willed by John c. Johnson to this city is now safely stored in fireproof warehouse. MT. Johnson was a lawyer of information al fame and his hobby was buying pictures. He was we'll known abroad as an art expert.
 The Johnson collection includes about 1,600 paintings. In bequeath- ing his collections to Philadelphia, Mr. Johnson stipulated that the treasures should be kept on exhibi. tion in his home and that the city should annually appropriate money to care for them. It was decided that a collection of such value should be contained in fireproof gallery and the residence is now being altered with this object in view.
 It is said that outside of the Brit ish National Gallery there is per haps no collection of classic paint ings that is so chronologically com plete as to that accumulated by MT Johnson, and it is certain that there Is nowhere any private gallery to be compared with these carefully select ed examples of Italian, Flemish, Span ish, French, Dutch German and Eng fish schools of art. MT. Johnson, collection is practically an embodied history of painting for the long period which it includes.

 In some cases the people fought for the leaflets, soon after they were dropped, and some of the pa per bombs from the sky sold as high as 20 crowns
 The officials have been using ey- cry effort to secure the leaflets and destroy them so that they cannot be circulated outside the city. They have ordered all who have them to deliver them to the Government, and prescribed heavy penalties for failure to do so.
