Lewistown, Pa, Jan. lot is
now thought that the fire in the Odd
Fellows building, that badly damaged
the structure and destroyed Dimm' s
dry goods store and scorched nearby
buildings, was not caused by an over
heated heater or ashes therefrom. A
new coat was found near the Jay
Brenneman residence, tagged $40, a
few minutes after the fire alarm
sounded and it is believed that a
burglar in his flight, dropped the
garment. 1t is thought that some per-
son or persons gained access to the
building through a basement win
dow and in looking over the stock
dropped lighted match among some
papers.

GERMAN CHRISTIANITY.

Frederick Wilhelm Nietzche was
one of the most noted of modern Ger
man philosophers. How much has his
philosophy affected the views and
character of the Germans of today ?
Is not the answer written in the Blood
of the women and children, the old
men of occupied France and Belgium
Are not the Lusitania victims wit
nesses to German adoption of Neitz-
ches faith
Here is his indictment of Chris
ttanity:
With this I conclude, and pro
nounce my sentence: l condemn Chris
tianity. To me it is the greatest of
all imaginable corruptions. The
church is the great parasite; with its
anemic idea of holiness it drains life
of all it's strength, its love, and its
hope. The other world is the motive
for the denial of every reality. I call
Christianity the one great curse the
one great intrinsic depravity, the one
great instinct of revenge, for which
no expedient is sufficiently poisonoue
secret, underhand, to gain its ends. J
call it the one immortal shame an
blemish upon the human race"

TRANSPORTING TROOPS.

The world has been astonished at
the great number of American soldi-
ers transported to Europe in the last
half year. The number now approx
mates 100000, and the loss of life
in transporting them has been almost
infnitesimal
The success with which we have
moved our troops from the scattered
camps nj this country and across
1000 miles of ocean to the battle front
is great evidence of American eff
cheney. We have not only surprised
our enemies; we have surprised our
friends and ourselves.

Sir Joseph Maclay, speaks of this
movement across the sea as "a trans
