Ten little Huns digging for a mine
Soon the Sammies got their range
Then there were mine.
Nine little Huns sang the Hymn of
Along came some shrapnel
Then there were eight.
Eight little Huns looking up to
heaven
Down dropped a Mills bomb
Then there were seven.
Seven little Huns in an awful fix
Their gas tanks leaked
Then there were six
Six little Huns tried to start a drive
Squash! Went a bayonet
Then there were five.
Five little Huns said they'd fight no
So the kaiser strafed one
Then there were four.
Four little Huns gazing toward Paree,
Stuck their heads above the trench
Then there were but three.
Three little Huns thought they'd break
through
But they found they were mistaken
Then there were two.
Two little Huns hid behind a gun
The fool thing back fired
Then there was one.
One little Hun tripped upon the run
Forgot to holler "Kamerad!"
Then there were none.

There are enemy aliens and there
are native aliens. The American who
does not do his part toward winning
the war. who neither fights nor works
nor lends for victory Is as much an
alien to Americas purposes and Am

PRESIDENT WILSON'S SPEECH AT
MOUNT VERNON.

President Wilson has made many |
notable speeches defining the attitude
o. our country in the great war and
the purpose we have set out to ac-
complish, but his brief address at
Mount Vernon was his masterpiece.
And il could hardly be otherwise con-
sidering the place where 1t was deliv-
cred, the day Of its delivery, and his
audience made up largely of represen
tatives of every nation of the world
except those with whom We are at
war. He stood at the shrine of liber
ty, and his words were addressed not
alone to his countrymen. but to the
people of all nations in which the
great principle that "all men are Gre
ated equal Is again the issue. Inspir
ed by the spirit of Washington, the
presidents words thrilled the people
of our own free land and carried
message of hope and confidence to the
people of all other lands who have
suffered and are suffering from the
brutal tyranny Of Germany. In de-
fning the purposes of the United
States in the war with Germany, the
president said:
"The past and the present are in
deadly grapple and the peoples of
the world are being done to death
between them.
There can be but one issue.
| The settlement must he final.
There can be no compromise. No
halfway decision will be toler-
able. No halfway decision is
conceivable"
These are strong words and give
expression to the unalterable purpose
of the American people. There can
be no compromise, no patched up
peace that will permit the Prussian
monster to again repeat this crime
against civilization. Enumerating the
objects to be attained before there
can be peace, the president said:
"These great objects can be put
into a single sentence. What we
seek is the reign of law, based
upon the consent of the governed
and sustained by the organized
opinion of mankind
And then, having in mind the great
part America is to play in bringing

President Wilson. The government Is

there viii be no repetition elsewhere.
officials made plain that they de-
plored the incident, both because Of
the effect in this country and also be-
cause Il is feared reprisals may be
made in Germany on Americans.
Until power is given the federal gov
ernment, as provided in pending bin,
to punish persons making disloyal ut
terances, department of justice officials
fear more lynchings.
This outbreak was the first report
reaching here of such extreme mob
violence to German, although officials
who have observed the general feel
ing against Germans have feared such
occurrences.
Springfield, Ill.,, April SIN state
ment Governor Lowden declared he
would use the force of his Office to see
that persons guilty of the lynching were
brought to punishment To this end
representatives Of the Office of the at-
torney general and the adjutant gem
eral were dispatched to the scene OF
the mob violence.
If the regularly constituted peace Of
ficers in Madison county and vincinity
were not able 70 maintain order, the
governor said. there would be nothing
left for him to do but declare martial
law.

transportation of American
Troops Speeded Up Since Big
Battle Started.
YANKEES HURRY TO FRONT
American, French and British Re-
serves Are Pouring in Daily to
Help Check Teuton Drlve--Al-
lies Position Improving.

Washington. April 10.--Transporta-
tion of American troops to France al
ready is proceeding at the accelerated
rate contemplated by the speeding up
measures taken after the battle OF
Picardy began. Acting Secretary
Crowell made this statement on Mon
day, but would give no details.
: Every day finds the allies in a bet
ter position to resist with definite sue
cess the great German offensive, ac-
cording to an official review by the
British military attache here. Ameri-
can, French and British reserves are
pouring in daily to help check the
German drive, the review declares.
''The opening of the third week or
fighting east of Amiens." says the re
view, finds the position of the allies
steadily improving.
"A very strcEg effort by the enemy
to drive down the Somme TO Amiens,
during which he used about twenty
five divisions on front of few miles.
was stopped last week with complete
success; only in one place was the Ger
man lines advanced and then only to a
depth of less than a mile on narrow
front
North of Albert the British adj
vance beat off repeated and vicious at
tacks without bending.
Near Montdidier, the French with
drew short distance to strong posi-
tons. The enemy is nowhere within
nine miles of Amiens; he is still three
miles distant at his farthest point Of
advance from the main Amiens-Paris
railway, the cutting Of which would
bring him no real victory. The best
proof of his discontinue Is the use
that he is making Of minor incidents
for window-dressing purposes.
'vThe Germans are gioating over the
capture of Pierremande and Folem-
bray, In the neighborhood of Chauny
and the forest of Courey. AS mat
ter of fact these successes are value
less.
"a short time ago in the course Of
the steady advance of the British army
in Palestine small force was thrown
across the Jordan to cut the Hedjaz
railway. It's work done, 1t retired from
the waterless waste through which the
railway runs and re1oined the army.
This retirement was advertised by the
Germans as a triumph for the Turks,
who, are alleged to have thrown the
British force back over the Jordan.
Doubtless the Germans will make
further great efforts before they ac-
knowledge the failure of their great
spring drive. but it is safe to say that
each day that passes finds the allies in
a better position to resist with definite
success. Each day their reserves,
which are already considerable. are
being swollen by fresh contingents
from their own armies and that of the
United States"
