LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
MINISTER'S WORD PRAISED
o the Editor Of the Telcgroth

To the Editor of the Telegraph:
Too much cannot be said in praise
of the Rev. w. M. Parchment. rector
of st. Augustine's p. r. Church for
the excellent work he is doing among
the soldiers of Company C. at Marsh
Run. He was the first to visit the
soldiers and offered to hold services
for them, which he has been giving
ever since, with much appreciation
from the men. who are justly proud
of their chaplain. He holds educa-
tional classes as well as religious
services. and is keenly interested in
the men, and they in turn are great
ly charmed with him. Now that the
influenza epidemic is raging strongly
at camp, claiming many by death. the
Rev. Gentleman is finding great
scope for work. He visits the pa
tlents fearlessly. giving them cheer
and hope of The Life Beyond" If
we had more men like the Rev. w.
NJ. Parchment the world would be
none the worse off. He is rightly
called Father Parchment. as his ac-
tions are most fatherly and kind to-
wards those to whom he ministers.
His visits to the camp usually put
new life ini the men.

Police believe William Murphy,
Fall River, Mass, arrested on the
charge of stealing an automobile and
later held for court on the charge
of breaking into the stores of Martz

hands of Policeman Schelhas while
the policeman was looking for other
men now thought to have stolen the
automobile.

robbing the stores, but was hiding
his booty when Schelhas saw him

HUNS IN HURRY

Amsterdam, Oct. 23.-Admit-
ting that under modern conditions
even defensive warfare on the
German frontiers would involve
great dangers, the Frankfort Ga
zette says even the most careful
defense on the western front will
entail big losses. 1t is not to
Germany's interests, the news.

fensive retreat from Belgium, and
that fighting there will not be

of popularizing the government
after the example of 1913 has
proceeded in continual waves
since August, 1914, and still is
proceeding" the Gazette con-

Beef Prices Low For
Poorer Grades, but Not
For First Class Meat

Wholesale meat dealers said to-
day that there never has been such
a wide range of beef prices as at
present. A shortage of pasturage,
due to dry weather in the West, has
thrown upon the market thousands
of what are known as unfinished"
steers and cows, which are being
sold wholesale as low as fifteen and
eighteen cents pound per carcass.
The butcher can now go to the
warehouse and buy fairly good beef
at 15 to Is cents a pound, which
brings the price to the retailer about
Is cents per pound below what is
being asked for prime beef. But
the butcher who deals only in first
class product-the heavy, finished
beef-must pay wholesale about 2S
or 80 cents per pound for the carcass
as a whole. Butchers say there is
a big demand for the cheaper grades
of beef, particularly in the large
cities. and that the cheaper grades
can be had here also If the people
demand them. But the prime beer
prices will remain high.
