knew the money would come back to
him., declared Kuhio
McCandless has invested his money
in the best securities in the world 1"
continued the Prince "but when it
came to giving money that could never
be returned TO him what did he doi
He gave $2l0 to the Red Cross and
that, in proportion to his wealth, does
not represent rs much as five cents

The Prince attacked McCandless
from every standpoint and his remarks
were checred by the largest crowd of

LECTURE HERE
SERGEANT VERNE MARSHALL, A
FORMER IOWA EDITOR, WHO
SAW WORST OF WAR IN FRANCE
COMES HERE TOMORRW NIGHT

Thrilling stories of life at the front
in France will be told here at Ameri-
Gus, Ca, next Thursday, March 7th, by
Sergeant Verne Marshall, 126th Ma,
chine Gun Battalion, U. S. n. G., for
Eerly a private in the French army
Sergeant Marshall is touring the
Southeast under direction of the Unit
ed States treasury department. The
purpose of his narrative is to depist
the life of the French army with
which he was identified before this
country entered the war, so as to
bring home to Americans a better
realization of what American boys are
going through, and will go through, in
TIE trenches until the war is won
Marshall volunteered in the Ameri-
can Ambulance Field Service, a self
sustaining organization, the members
OF which were automatically enlisted
as privates in the French army. The
men paid their own expenses and re-
ceived the pay of the French poilu-
five sous, nickel day. With his
ambulance section, No. 4, Marshall
spent many months at the front, and
was for three months at DeadMan's s
Hill at yerdun wnen that battle was
at the zenith of its intensity. His
narrative is said to be one of the most
graphic, delivered in this country, one
that presents vivid and actual pic
lures of the front.
Previous to his enlistment Marshall
was editor of the Evening Gazette,
Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Following his re-
turn from France he travelled through
the middle west lecturing for the Red
Cross, Belgian Relief, etc, and was
responsible for the raising of about
three-quarters of million dollars. Re-
fusing proffers of a better position be-
cause of education and experience, he
enlisted at a private in the Iowa Ma
tional Guard, which is in training at
Camp Cody, n NJ. The treasury de
partment is using him as an aid in
awakening the people to the peril of
their position, peril that will exist
until Prussian militarism is defeated
No admission will be charged at the
meeting, which will be held at eight
o'clock p. m, at Carnegie Library.

NIGHT SESSION.

MADISON Wis, March 6.-The lower
house of the Wisconsin legislature
held an all-night session last night
without reaching vote on the reso-
luton to censure Senator LaFollette
for his attitude toward the war,
The deadlock continued unbroken
early today with neither side able to
gain strength, but indications that
the resolution would finally be passed
owing to the attitude of the social
lists.
When motion was introduced to re-
cess for breakfast socialists imme-
diately opposed the measure, AMI
succeeded in blocking its passage.
After the failure of teh effort to
adjourn the resolution of censure was
passed by a vote of fiftythree to thir
ty-two.
