down the Wilmington Stakes, a five-
d-onehalf-furlong test, with more
than five lengths of daylight separat-
ing him from the rest of the field.

others in the contest, but the going
did not bother Jack Hare, Jr. AL
though he made q comparatively mis-
cradle showing in his first out Of the
season last Tuesday, Jack Hare, Jr.,
came back yesterday as if the work
of his first race was just what was
needed to put him on edge.

the judges stand, Jack Hare, Jr.,
made each furlong post a winning
post E. McBride's Charlie Leydeck-

half Of the journey, but was unable
to hold the speed, and faltered to

Hindenburg Stops.

The German high command has been held at
bay long enough to make it certain that the brilliant
British defense of Ypres has been a major check
to its plans.
1t has not caused merely a minor disarrange-
ment of German strategy. 1t has split the whole
scheme wide open. We have doubt that the
original German plan called for a genuine steam
roller move towards the Channel ports by this time.
Instead of this, the German legions-even after ac-
quiring considerable momentum and force in their
onward rush-have been stopped cold and down in
their tracks. Mount KENNEL captured at CHASTITY
sacrifice of life, has proven bloody tragedy instead
OF victory. Its possession has been liability
rather than an asset The British and French have
been raining shells upon its open peak ever since
the Boche gained it. 1t has been almost untenabe.
1t is too early say that the drive to the Chan
mel ports has been permanently stopped 1t is well
not to take any chances. German military expert,
in discussing the situation, praises the foresight of
Ludendorff and Hindenburg in not returning to
the assault hastily but in waiting until he is fully
and thoroughly equipped with new divisions, fresh
blood, new guns In other words, in not re-attack-
ing the British until he has been given such over
whelming reserve forces that he can make his sec
ond thrust even more powerful than his first 1t
takes time to make this restoration. This undoubt-
cdy is what has caused the ull the Ypres salient
for the past five days. The Boche has not been 81
Ienced- He means to make at least another even
more desperate attack
The word put forth by Premier Lloyd George yes
terday telling of the optimism held by Tommy At
kiRs, is joyful If the soldier who is bearing
the brunt of the battle can remain cheerful, calm
and absolutely confident OF victory in the midst OF
the carnage then it behooves the civilian population
OF all the allied nations remain steadfast and
perturbed, to refrain from the hysteria and panic
which too often creeps out from its lair at the
smallest wave OF bad news. Every word have
from American sources confirms the word Of the
premier. 1t is that the morale of the FrancoBritsh
armies, to mention the American, is at the high
est Everywhere along the battle-lne there is the
same answering confidence that military men in
Washington show This confidence is not shaken
by their growing insstence that superiority of man
power will determine the fortunes of the war, and
that it is the burden and duty of the United States
to furnish that superiority to the cause of civi-
zation.
The Washington herald., 1918-05-05
Another Peace Note.

Stockholm dispatch says that the Catholic In
ternational Press announces that Emperor Charles
of Austria is making fresh separate peace offer to
Italy.
Charles evidently had to do something to offset
that Clemenceau affair in the eyes of his allhighes
Kaiser Bill. But why he should try to came back
along these lines in which he is apparently weak
is mystery.
He probably sees twofold benefit from his
latest move which will not be taken seriously by
any of the allied powers 1t is an attempt to wreck
the Italian morale through creating discord and
lessening their resistance while at the same time
Emperor Charles probably finds that it is necessary
to appease the people of his own country by hold
ing up to the light possibility of consummation
of peace.
If he succeeds in fooling anyone it will be the
people of his country although it is highly
probable that by this time even they are tired of
promises.

The Onion Crop.

1t is gratifying to know from the current issue
of the Commerce Reports that the outlook for the
Canary Islands onion seed crop is favorable.
AS we read on. however, we get jolt, for we
learn that the onion bulbs used in planting last
season suffered somewhat for the lack of potash
salts. Not word about Perlmutter.
We learn, too, that the bulb came originally
from Spain, and that it is pinksh onion, which,
by selection, developed into the yellow onion Of
a light golden color-in Short it is blond.
Then the whole onion pile totters, for the
report says "the unsettled conditions regards
sailings = may develop into extremely
important factor in the movement of the 1918 crop.
certain model husband who when away from
home wrote his wife every day usually sent
kisses-down in the left-hand corner of the episte.
One day he forgot to send the osculatory evidence

that he had eaten onions that night and knowing
her aversion to onions he didn't send the kisses.

Charles E. Townsend, of Michigan, referred to the
ease with which bus mess firm sometimes may be

Two brothers once store in small West

wool on barter. Evidently one of the brothers be-
came converted at revival and it was not long be-
fore he was urging the other to follow in his foot
steps.

one "You don't know how helpful and comforting
