WOULD GUARD STATUES
Paris Protests Against Neglect OF
Art Treasures.
Allowed 20 stand Exposed 70 Air hsio-
srs-promlse 81 Aid
Falls.

Paris.-Protest has arisen In many
quarters here against the deliberate
neglect Of many of the priceless stat
ues and works Of art In Paris. which
have been permitted to stand unpro-
tected against possible damage from
enemy air raids and bombardments.
The special commission charged with
the duty Of providing protection for
public monuments Of art has been BE-
verely criticized.
Last year when the danger Of air
raids seemed comparatively remote a
dozen or more monuments and statues
were ordered to be protected with sand
bags. Some time afterward loaded
sacks were placed at q distance from
the monuments or statues waiting to
be put In place. There they were al
lowed to remain. nothing further be-
ing done. The bags lay about the
statues for weeks.
In the meanwhile there were several
air raids. Fortunately 10 monument
or statue was hit. On the initiative
of a group Of citizens work on the pro-
lection OF some Of the masterpieces
was begun, and many historic pieces
like the vendome Column. the Obelisk.
the Strassbourg Monument and the art
works In the Luxembourg gardens
were given some adequate protection.
Street urchins anxious to play sin
the trenches" climbed up among the
bags. causing a loose one to slip, with
the result that thousands Of bags fell
In an avalanche about many Of the
statues. II was thereupon found that
the bags were filled with stones or
clinkers.
Art lovers protested and called the
attention of the commission to the
fact that stones and clinkers afforded
no protection against German bombs.
The Paris municipal council Is now
taking measures to remedy the present
condition and promises that every valu-
able piece of statuary and historical
art will be reasonably protected.

WITH YOU, WOODROW,

Any audience which can see that
title flashed On the screen, as it is in
The Kaiser, the Beast of Berlin" in
the particularly appropriate place
where it appears and not literally go
off it's nut with excitement, is a pretty
hard audience TO enthuse. Millions of
people throughout the United States
have joined in thunderous rounds of
applause at this point in the part
fancy and party fact story of the Kai-
ser as he really is. Thousands will
certainly do the same thing at the Re-
public Theatre when the picture is
shown there tonight.
All the madness of the war-craZed
mind of the Kaiser all the vicious
ness of the crimes perpetrated in his
name and under his orders, are
shown in this picture with vividness
at once horrible and thrilling. The
sacking of Louvain is reproduced
with infinite attention to detail, i'm
mediately after the first scenes of the
film showing Belgium in times of
peace.

MT. MORIAH CHURCH
GIVES S12 TO RED CROSS

At a patriotic entertainment held
last night in Mt Moriah A. NJ. e.
Church, the sum of twelve dollars was
contributed to the Red Cross.
AS there were but seventeen people
present, this sum is an excellent show
ing Other entertainments in town
among the colored people are said to
have attracted those who might have
otherwise attended the Red Cross
meeting
Prof William o. Stevens, of the
Naval Academy, one of the -Four
Minute Men, gave an excellent talk
on the Origin of the Red Cross" in
which he traced it's history from its
inception TO the present time. The
talk was interesting and instructive.
The pastor of the church, Rev. j. A.
Briscoe, and the principal of Stanton
Colored Public School, c. e. Overton,
made a few remarks.
The amount collected was brought
to The Capital Office this morning and
later turned over to the Red Cross
Treasurer, Mr. Charles f. Lee.
