RUSSIA AGREES TO
 HUNS PEACE TERMS
BOLSHEViKI WILL SEND DELE CATION TO BRESi LlTOVsK
 AT ONCE.
R0UMAN!A IS NEGOTIATING
Numerous Additional Towns HaVs Been Captured By Germans and Several Thousand More Russians
 Are Made Prisoners.

New York. - The Bolshevik goy- ernment in Russia represented by Nikolai Lenine and Leon Trotzky, has acceeded to the demands of Ger many and announced it's readiness to accept the hard peace terms which Germany has laid down.
 Thus apparently without further hesitation the Russians are prepared in an effort to stop the inroads the Germans now are making into their country to add to the enemy's already vast holdings more of Russia's s most valuable western territory, extending from the Gulf of Finland southward to the Black sea, and even to with draw her troops from Finland and give back to the Turks what has been taken from them in battle.
 The surrender seems abject. Rus sia is immediately to send a delega- ton to Brest-Litovsk there to dis cuss with German representatives the final details of the peace and sign the compact.
 At last accounts the German ar- mics in the east were giving no heed to talk of peace, but were methodical- ly pushing forward their line over ths more than 500-mile front from the Gulf of Finland region to Volhynia and still nowhere meeting with any systematic attempts to hinder their progress
 Numerous additional towns have been captured and several thousand more Russians made prisoner. In ad- dition, nearly 5000 German and ACB- trian prisoners of war have been Hb- erated by the invaders. Reyal. Rus sia's principal port on the Finnish gulf, is rapidly being approached, notwithstanding the snow-covered roads. The troops here are being pushed forward iD forced marches, the desire of the German high com mand evidently being to capture the port. which would be available, if ne- cessity arises, as base for opera tions by fleet of war vessels against Kronstadt and Petrograd
 Rumania, cut off from her allies. through her disaffection, at last has entered into formal peace negotia- tions with the central powers, accord ing to advices reaching London. Those pastmasters in Teutonic allied poli- cies, Von Kuehlmann and Czernin, respectively the German and Austrian foreign ministers, and Radoslavoff, the Bulgarian premier, are treating with M. Averesco, the Rumanian pre- mier at point near Bucharest. Doubtless, as were the terms impos- ed on Russia, the peace conditions that will be offered Rumania will be hard ones.
 Already they are said to embrace territorial acquisitions for Bulgaria and economic preferences for Ger many and Austria.

RAILROAD MEASURE
 PASSED BY SENATE
THERE WAS NO ATTEMPT TO RE- WYE FIGHT FOR INDEFINITE
 GOVERNMENT CONTROL.

Washington. - The administration bill, providing for government control of railroads until IS months after the war, including many short lines, and appropriating a revolving fund of $500,000,000 for federal operation, was passed by the Senate without a roll call and now awaits action in the House, where it is under deDate.
 The bill passed by the Senate au- thorizes the president to initiate rates subject to Interstate Commission ve- to. There was no attempt to revive the fight for indefinite government control.
 Provision for "short line" railroads was made in an amendment by Sena- tor Cummins of Iowa, adopted 5S to IA. Independent feeders of the trunk lines estimated to be worth more than $1, 000,0O0.0O0 are affected Fears expressed by many senators that the short lines would become bankrupt if not brought within govern ment control was the reason for the action. Director General McAdoo has opposed legislation for "short lines on the ground that no railroads ex- cept those selected as necessary to government unification and operation should be brought within federal ji- rection and aid.
 Determined efforts to reduce the government compensation to railroad owners failed. AS passed, the meas ure provides that approximately $945, 000,000 will be guaranteed the car riers, based upon their standard net return for the three-year period end ing June 30, 1917.
 Amendments designed to limit scope of the presidents orders in operating carriers also were voted down. A pro- posal by Senator Sterling of South Dakota to keep in effect present laws and functions governing the Interstate Commerce Commission and state rall- way commissions, was rejected, while one by Senator Hitchcock of Nebras- ka to lift the presidents orders to acts specifically authorized by law was beaten, ,46 to 20.

What Was in Him.

Children" said the teacher while instructing the class in composition "you should not attempt any flights of fancy, but simply be yourselves and write what is in you. Do not initiate any other persons writings or draw inspiration from outside sources"
 As result of this advice Johnny Wise turned in the following compost tion:
 "We should not attempt any fiites of fancy, but rite what is in us. In nae thare is my stummick, lungs, hart, liver, two apples, one piece of pie, one stick lemon candy and my dinner."- Baltimore Bulletin.

True Gospel of Work.

Work is the glory and delight of life, and the only acceptable excuse for being in this world, and the ob- ject of all practical investigations of the principle of fatigue and recovery is to find out, not what is the least possible amount of work that a hu- man being can get along on, but what is the greatest amount that he can do without decreasing his working capac- ity. Such is the gospel of work, which those who are not of the elect may regard as hard Exchange.
