Soldiers S Letter

Miss Julia Ruark, of this city, has
received the following letter con-
cerning the death of her brother,
Corp William NJ. Ruark. who was
killed in battle on October 4. 1918,
from one of his comrades:
Metz, France, March =. 1919.
My dear friends Sister:
Received your letter after some
what of delay, asking me if 1 knew
sanything concerning your brothers
kdeath. 1 was with your brother,
a' Bill" all through the eight days OF
hhat battle, in which he made the
Fsupreme sacrifice for Liberty and
Humanity. 1 had known William
t for sometime, but learned to know
him better through those days of
battle. There were none more brave
! hor with a truer heart. He had a
heart and mind that rang true for
his country, his flag, and what it
stands for.
One day, afte' we had stayed off
an attack and driven the Huns back,
We had time to talk things over, and
these are the words "Bill' said: 81
enjoyed that fight as l always dc,
when they get close to u.s." 1t had
been hand to hand fight with pis
tolls, rifles and machine guns, on the
second day of October. 1t was on
the fourth of October, just at early
dawn, We were firing the guns while
the Infantry advanced under our
fire, that your brother was firing the
third gun to ny right, and the Huns
were shelling us mostly with gas
shells. He did not suffer. A smell
struck him and he died instantly.
There were no last words, for he was
too interested in his work. l don't
believe he knew it happened. rs L
said before, he was brave man; he
laughed at death. and when he was
laid at rest. after a military funeral,
he wore a smile that seemed to say
he had done his hest and was con-
tent
What have written you in regard
to your brother, is a trifie Of praise
to what he rightly deserves. AL
though you will mourn the loss or
one so dear to you, there should be
none more proud to think of the
honor he has bestowed upon his
country He made the sup1 eme sac
rifice that the world may live in

CITES OTHER TREATIES

Washington, May 2S-Tht
League Of Nations was supported as
a logical and practical organization,
entirely consistent with the Ameri-
can constitution, by Senator Robin
son, Democrat, OF Arkansas, in a
speech today in the Senate.
Opponents of the Legue, the Sen
.. ator charges, are making a cam
paign of Misrepresentation, setting
up fiimsy objections that the pro
posal violates American traditions.
The covenant, he asserted, in no
way impairs national sovereignty or
subverts American constitutional
principles.
''The objection that the League
of Nations creates a super-govern-
ment is without foundation" sa d
Mr.. Robinson. "It can take no ac-
tion in any important controversy
without the consent of the United
States. It's powers are advisory. By
| the treaty it becomes the common
Iagent of the signatory powers to
promote. international cooperation
and peace. It is our agent, not our

years. When the American seaplane
NC-4, came over the Tagus river
this evening, the popu1ace crowding
all places of vantage, gave full ex-
preston of this enthusiasm by
cheers of welcome, the bombing of
guns and the rir ging of bells.
For days the people of Lisbon
had been waiting the completion Of
this momentous voyage over the
Atlantic and, though disappointed

ability CT Commander Reads craft
to continue it's flight from the Az

looked hopefully towards the west

would wing its way safely across
