After an absence of twenty years,

the occasion of the statewide confer

preston brought storm of applause,
which grew into loud cheers of en-
thusiasm. Continuing, Dr. Mott paid
O glowing tribute to the hard work,
unselfishness and sacrifices of Pres
ident Wilson. He spoke touchingly OF
Inc adverse news from Washington

bied than the congress resolved itself
into a mad scramble for territory.
The rightE of people to self-determi-
nation were utterly ignored. The
proceedings were secret. but enough
leaked out to cause Whitbread to pro-
test In the house Of commons. "We
live in an age when free nations are
not to be sold and transferred like
beasts of burden" But that was just
what was done.
Lord Castlereagh pursued at first .
wavering policy. until early In Janu-
airy, when the news of the signing Of
q treaty Of peace between England
and the United States caused him to
oppose boldly. but without success,
the rapacity of Russia and Prussia.
When the congress had been In SEES
sion nearly six months the division
of the spoils was nearly completed.
To Russia was assigned Poland as
she held 1t until the recent war.
Announced Escape OF Napoleon.
Prussia got one-half of Saxony. q
slice of Poland and the territories OF
which Napoleon had shOrn her. North
ern Italy was given to Austria and
central Italy furnished duchies for
Austrian princes. Holland and Bel
GUM were erected into a separate
kingdom. Norway was taken from
Denmark and given to Sweden.
France was confined within her old
limits. The smaller German states
were dealt with according to their
pull" England was allowed to keep
st. Lucia In the West Indies, the Cape
of Good Hope and few other oversee
trifies. along with Helgoland.
The delegates considered their work
nearly completed when. on the morn
ing Of March IL, Talleyrand entered
the council chamber. his face pale and
drawn, and announced that courier
had just arrived from France with the
news that Napoleon had escaped from
Elba and was marching on Paris.
At first the delegates broke into
peals of laughter; the laughter was
succeeded by anxiety; and. hastily
passing a resolution declaring NapO-
leon an outlaw. the congress adjourn
ed. Kings and ambassadors hurried
home to reassemble 1.O1l 600 troops to
hurl again against the man OF destiny.

are set together with narrow strips Of
