NEW YORK, May I'm the last
thirty years 1924 persons have been
put to death by mobs, according to
report made public today by the
National Association for the Ad-
vancement of Colored People.
For the thirty-year period from
1889 through 1918 the north has had
219 victims, the south 1884. the west
156 and Alaska and other localities
Is.
Fifty colored women and eleven
white women were lynched in four
teen states. Thirteen of the fourteen
states in which women fell victims
to mobs were southern states, Ne
braska being the only state outside
the south which lynched women. The
north and west together have lynched
twenty-one persons during the last
fiye-year period. whereas during the

TERRIBLE CONDITIONS

Under the auspices of the Hamilton
County Syrian Jewish war
relief drive committee, a huge mass
meeting was held last night at the
Methodist church. The attraction
was an address by Rev Captain G. X.
Morse, chaplain in the British army
with the 44th regiment of Canadian
forces i'll the great war Chaplain
Morse's address is generally held to
have been the strongest and most in
teresting of all the addresses deliver
ed in Webster City by men returned
from the trenches. There was an
immense audience, every seat in the
auditorium, the Sunday school room
and the gallaries being occupied. The
pastor of the church presided Clergy
of the city occupied seats on the plat
form, including Rev. Father Barry Of
the local Catholic church, who is
chairman of the local drive commit
tee. Under the direction of Wesley
Schaub the choir of the Methodist
church rendered good musical service
and the audience joined heartily in
the congregational singing.

Chaplain Morse is good speaker
A winsome personality and fine
speaking voice, backed by wonderful
experience in France; combined to
make the address notable. When the
war broke out Chaplain Morse was.
pastor of Baptist church in Winni-
peg. The authorities urged him to ac-
cept chaplaincy with the Canadian
overseas forces, but Mr.. Morse decid-
ed that he wanted to see the great
struggle very close to the men in the
ranks. With two of his sons he en-
listed, as private. and in the ranks
he saw two years on the most strenu-
Gus front in the Flanders fighting
line. He was in the Ypres salient and
on the Somme front two years. When
he was invaded. so that he could not
get back into the ranks, he accepted

last night in Chaplain Morses story
OF the war, and this theme was illu-
strated by his story of the war acti-
vities of the Honorable Mrs. Graham
Murray. This noble English woman
instituted a hosiery for privates and
noncommissioned officers of overseas
forces on leave. There were 600 beds
in the hotel. Prices were nominal.
All the walters We're titled ladies of
the blue-blooded English nobility, and
these women have entertained 342, 600
men during the course of the war.
Free theater tickets were provided for
all who cared for them. This parti-
cular family lost most of its wealth
early in the war, and Mrs. Murray
rather feared that her home might
have to go the way Of the rest of the
family property. Since he had been
back in this country the chaplain had
learned that Mrs. Murray's father
had died and left her legacy
amounting to $34O, 900. The lady
proved the nobility of her blood by
devoting every penny of this fund, all
of which she really needed herself, to
the founding of a home for soldiers
and sailors.
German Atrocities.
The address shed new light on Ger
man atrocities. With his own eyes
Chaplain Morse has seen Belgian boys
with their right hand cut off nearly
to the elbow, and he presented I'M
doubted evidence that the most beast
ly atrocities had continued up to the
moment of evacuation after the sign
ing of the armistice.
Chaplain Morse closed his address
with a powerful appeal for the relief
of the war sufferers in the Near East.

sanship Of every kind, as. illustrated by
the fact that clergymen Of all denomin-
|ations are taking hand in the work.
Rev. Metcalf announced the general
meeting of all township and ward
chairmen, with the clergymen Of the
county and city, to be held at the Con-
gregational church Tuesday afternoon
at o'clock, to perfect the details Of
the campaign, and invited any one-in-s
terested or willing to help, to attend
that meeting.

| chaplain rank and service. He has
gone through the, war with his eyes
and ears open, and, being an 'edlicat-
ed man, his comments on the events
of the great struggle are tremendous
~ interesting and affecting. His adj
dress was a little philosophy of the
war illustrated by his own personal
experience, and he closed with Il pow
erful appeal for war-suiferers in the
Near East, in Armenia which is the
Belgium of the Near East
Chaplain Morse's text was script
ures which describe the shaking of
things and the tottering of thrones.
The lettering Of thrones in the pres
ent struggle formed good point of
departure for the speaker. He de-
scribed the shaking of the social or
der by the war. and his pictures of
social and political changes being eff
fected in England were interesting
and Illuminating. The speaker said
lllul klllS beoTSc VI TIuSldiiu liuu
offered to abdicate his throne. but
that the throne in England was abso-
lutely secure in its democratic foun-
dation and in the warm affection of
the people. The people of privilege in
England are welcoming instead of
hindering the new age.
A New Religious Age.
Rounds of applause greeted the
speaker as he described the shaking
the liquor traffic has received during
the war. lie said also, what is OBJ
viously the fact. that UNCONVENTIONAL
walls of partition had been roughly
shaken by the tremendously vital and
human experiences of the war. There
is only one message possible to men
who are about to go over the top,
and it has nothing to do with theo-

a Horrible Picture.

He drew vivid picture OF terrible
conditions in the stricken territory oc.
cupied by Armenia and Syria, within
the Ottoman Empire, and also in the
large section of Armenia until recently
dominated by the Russian army, as
we'll as in the Russian Caucasus, Per.
STA, Mesopotamia, portions of Egypt
and Macedonia and, strange to say,
even Palestine--the very cradle of the
Christian religion. Here some of the
most fiendish and horrible crimes upon
humanity have been pcrpetrated. The
captain told of massacre by the thou
sands of the men of these lands-whO,
OstenSibly, had been modified for ar
my purposes, but who instead were
massed conveniently, so that their MUIR
der might be accomplished in the short
est possible time He described how
women and even children were first vi
olated by Turkish officers, then turned
over to the soldiers and later murder
ed and mutilated. He described the af-
termath of these 1iendish acts-how the
land was ,despoiIed and the country rob
bed of everything that would help sus-
tain human life, until the poor victims
who have survived have almost been
compelled to descend to cannibalism to
fa in fol IL lni as.iu r
ed bodies. AS the speaker well said,
the picture in its reality is too horrible
to be presented before a modern audi
ence. The destruction is so complete
that all of these lands must practically
be rebuilt in every detail and if the
remnants of the stricken peoples are TO
be saved from horrible, lingering
death by starvation and disease, imme-

logy or ecclesasticism. Men who
have been together splendidly in
France will not want to be separated
when they get home. He declared
that the church of Jesus Christ can
never slip back to the old conditions
and with telling effect he told of a
baptismal service at a church parade
shortly before the men in line were
10 go into battle. At this baptismal
service sixteen men were baptised by
sprinkling while the font, which was
Il pail of water, was provided by a
Baptist chaplain who assisted in the
ceremony. The address was full of
dramatic incidents which thrilled the
audience and brought rounds Of APP
plause. Chaplain Morse is an enthu-
siast for the new age ushered in by
the war for all conditions of men,
Besides shaking many things, the
war revealed many fine qualities in
human nature hitherto either covered
up or not suspected of being present.
The men in Flanders were in many
respects at their very best. The spirit
of unselfshness was very manifest.
They shared their comforts as well as
their discomforts. The wounded
wanted somebody's else wounds dress
ed before their own. Never mind
me, look after the other fellows, they
are worse off than l am would often
be said by men who would die within
a few minutes while waiting their de-
ferred turn. The chaplain has had a
plentiful experience among the
wounded and dying. and he held the
audience in breathless attention as
his speech moved among the heroics
of the battle front.
The heroism and self-sacrifice of
the English nobility were set forth

diate and generous aid physical, men,
tai and moral-must be Forthcoming.
Need for Help.
Nor did the speaker neglect to dwell
upon the fact that America is practi-
cally the only country able to extend
the right kind Of help, and it is for
the purpose of enabling our people to
help these unfortunates, that the cam
paign to be conducted next week is
planned.
At the close of Captain Morse's talk,
Rev. Arthur Metcalf, chairman Of the
campaign in Hamilton county, briefly
announced the plan of campaign, stat
ing that Hamilton county is being OF
ganized by townships and Webster City
by wards. He also called attention to
the fact that this is a campaign in the
interest of humanity, free from parti-
