Mrs. J. M. Dyer Succumbs
To Death After Fatal
Operation At
Houston
Was Former Citizen Of Morgan
City, and Whole City Mourns
as Her Remains Are
Laid to Rest

Once more the Angel of Death has
cast its shadow upon the threshold
and left a void in the hearts of num-
berless friends by claiming Mrs. J. NJ
Dyer. Mrs. Dyer passed away at St
Joseph's Infirmary in Houston at II
o'clock yesterday morning. She had
been suffering for some time with a
tumor, and an operation proved to be
in vain. Her remains arrived this
morning on train No. 8, and the fun
eral was held at 10 o'clock this morn
ing.
Mrs. Dyer was born in New Or
leans 46 years ago. Before her mar
riage she was Miss Alice Natili,
daughter of the late Baron Randolph
Natili of New Orleans, and Marie
Chassaignac, a native of France who
came to New Orleans with her pa
rents to make their home They
moved to Morgan City when Mrs.
Dyer was still child, her father be-
ing agent for the Southern Pacific
for many years. The venerable gen.
tleman died in the summer of 1916.
Here Mrs. Dyer blossomed into wom-
anhood. AS girl she was adored by
all of her companions and school
mates.
Mr.. and Mrs. Dyer were married in
Morgan City in February of the year
1892, the event being most gala one.
The wedding occurred in the Catholic
Church, of which Mrs. Dyer was de-
vout member, always living accord
ing to the doctrines of the Church.
Her life was spent in the interest of
others, and her happiest moments
were those in which she had an op-
portunity of bestowing some charita-
Bile blessing upon the needy. She was
known and loved by nearly every one
lin Morgan City. Her activities in
social and welfare work were always
in evidence; and her home life was
spent in keeping sunshine and happi-
ness in the hearts of her family circle.
She leaves, besides her husband,
nine children to mourn her death.
They are: Charles, Randolph, Jerry,
Edwin, Joseph and Sam; Alice, Agnes
and Ann.
The pail bearers were: Messrs. K.
K. Hood, w. B. Reed, Albert Storm,
]. P. Hebert, E. A. Pharr, M. D.
Shannon, ]. F. Prohaska, DR.. S. J.
Bourgeois, B. M. Young and F. D.
Winchester. A large concourse of
friends followed the body to its last
resting place in Morgan City Gene

WASHINGTON, Dec. 8-Prcsidenl Wilson has written Senator Albert B. Fall. Republican, of Now Mexico, that he would be gravely concerned to see Congress pass a resolution such as Fall introduced, providing for Con. gross to ask the President to severe diplomatic relations with Mexico.

AMERICANS';ARE
 GOOD FIGHTERS
 ASSERTS BAKER
In His Annual Report He Refers to the Recent War and Advises Mili-
 Training

WASHINGTON, Dec 8.--War expe- rience plainly shows the necessity for fundamental reorganization of the army and of the war department it. self, Secretary Baker declared in his annual report. He recommended that the emergency organization, reduced to the peace-time size, be made per manent, and approved the General Staff bill for regular establishment "adequate in size to be the nucleus of any great military mobilization the country may be called upon to make," and backed up by a system of universal training.
 "In such a policy" MT. Baker said, ''the accent is upon the citizens and not the soldier; the officers be- coming a permanent corps of experts and the men a body temporarily de. voting portion of their time to mill .tary training in order that they may enter civil life win sense of na- tional service and with superior equipment for success"
 "It is difficult to believe" he said,
 ienying any danger of militarism, that an army could be formed of Americans, educated in our common schools, raised in the free and demo cratic atmosphere of our institutions which would still be hostile to those institutions and liberties. The world war has shown quite clearly that armies reflect tho spirit of the people from whom they come rather than create a spirit of their own. so that the size of the army is. not so i'm portant from the point of view now under consideration as the kind oi an army"
 Referring to the recent war, Sec retary Baker in another part of his report continued
 Meanwhile the German armies had crushed long-planned offensives by the Allied armies with apparent ease, and by the collapse of Russia were daily being strengthened by di visions of trained soldiers brought from the eastern front until the men
