People in Fight on Autocracy
Franz sigel. president of the Friends
OF German Democracy, replied yestcr-
day to the comment made by the
Cologne Gazette" upon his organiza-
ton. "In any case" said the Cologne
Gazette" 1--WE should refrain from
placing all German Americans in one
category There are. unfortunately,
yet, thank God, two kinds of them"
'Such words are pregnant with
meaning for those Of us of German ex-
traction" said Mr.. Sigel. (Which of
those two kinds are we and which of
us hope to win esteem by silence ?
Are there any such? Are we ready to
speak, act and serve together in the
cause Of American democracy against
German autocracy?
"That is the issue which the German
press presents to us and en- which we
cannot and must not be silent. We
must settle once and for all time the
question: Are there two kinds as stated
by the Cologne Gazette in the matter
o. allegiance"
In statement issued by the Friends
of German Democracy it was said that
at is not strange that these papers
should foam at the mouth at the
activities of the Friends of German
Democracy" Pamphlets calling on the
German people to throw off autocratc
government are being prepared and
will be delivered whore they will do
the most good, the society promises

HUMORS OF RENT COLLECTING
Seeming Proof That Stern Gatherer of
Landlords Tribute May Be
Human, After All.

Bostonian, owning houses in a
neighboring city. received the follow
ing stately letter from the collector of
rents. We publish it to show that
collector may be memorable, yet have
a vein of humor In his iron constitu-
zion. The letter was written in Janu-
airy:
THE soil-pipe, water pipes and other
apparatus in the cellar of the old
homestead are in their usual hibernal
state-frozen stiff; so Lemuel reports,
and adds that he offered to contribute
to Bill a ton of coal for the furnace TO
generate little warmth and partially
overcome the deadly. gravelike chill of
that subterraneous space; and Bill
| tells me that Lemuel is a cheerful liar
and made no such offer, and so / tell
both what the other says. and leave
them TO fight it out, impressing or
them, however. that the rent must be
forthcoming just the same"

FEARFUL LOSS BY AUSTRALIANS
In Weeks Fighting With Italians They
Lose $4,000 Men.

Washington. - Statements in Aus
trian newspapers that the Austrian as
sault on the Italian line has succeeded
in its aim of frustrating an attack
planned by the allies clearly indicates
there is great disappointment among
the enemy leaders, and that they are
hard put to find an explanation of their
failure 10 gain.
1t now appears established that the
Austrans have suffered casualties
totaling 10000. The fighting on the
Piave plain and on the slopes of the
Montelo has been most sanguinary,
but we must remember the Austrians
have great numbers of men in reserve
and they will be able to continue their
offensive for some time. 1t is now
known that the commander-in-clnef of
the Austrian front. General Boroevic
has two divisions of German troops. a
Bulvarian division and Turkish divi'
sion in his forces.

bition, nervousness, are often times symp-
toms of kidney trouble.

be just the remedy needed to overcome
such conditions.

The Ultimate SuperIative.

In a rural school a teacher was en-
deavoring one day to make clear TO
her class the degrees of comparison
of adjectives. To make sure she was
understood. the teacher called on each
pupil in turn to give comparatives and
superlatlces of adjectives, which she
named. One little chap was asked
to name the comparative degree of
"sick"
"Worse," said he.
The teacher decided that she could
best show him his error by letting him
go on. and asked, sweetly, "well if
worse is the comparative of sick,
what would you give as the superla-
tive?"
Dead" was the instant answer
