Smith, of Philadelphia, involves An
META Fullwod, a Pensacola negress,
who is said to have been bequeathed
5000 through the legacy of Hermann
Mennewisch, whom she nursed at the

Annetta has been accused of forg-
ing the will, giving herself $500. and
she stoutly maintained at the probate
hearing, that, If she had forged it she
would have given herself $4,000 and
Mayor Smith about nine cents. She
was enraged. according to the Phila-

insinuate that she had written the

PROPHETIC WORDS.

How keenly some writer's Of century ago
looked into the future il proven by the happen
ings Of today.
Prospective Influences of the Republic from
Thoughts on the Future Civil Policy Of Ameri-
co" by John William Draper, 1910, is an ex-
ample. Read this quotation:
"Now, when we consider the position of the
American continent-its Atlantic front looking
upon Europe. its Pacific front looking upon
Asia-when we reflect how much nature has
done for 1t In the wonderful river system she
has bestowed, and how varied are the mineral
and agricultural products it yields, it would seem
as If we should be constrained by circumstances
to carry out spontaneously in practical life the
abstract suggestions Of policy. Great undertake
ings. such as the construction Of the Pacific rail-
road, pressed into existence by commercial mo-
tives and fostered for military reasons, will in
directly accomplish political objects not yielding
in Importance to those that are obvious and
avowed.
1.-THE Roman empire is regarded, perhaps not
unjustly, as the most imposing of all human po-
Iitical creations. Italy extended her rule across
the eastern and western basins of the Mediter-
ranean sea, from the confines Of Parthia to
Spain. A similar central, tut far grander. posi-
ton is occupied by the America continent.
The partitions of an interior narrow sea are re-
placed Iy two gr;.t cIe.n:. But, since history
avcr eats its {, the uaxims thai y:ided the

pie. having strength and security in it's political
Institutions, may look forward to a career of
glory. It may, without offense, seek to render
it's life memorable in the annals of the human

CZECHS FACE CRISIS.

Czecho-Slovakia, the brave little ally that
contributed so much to the downfall of Austria
Hungary, now stands on the brink of disaster.
Details of her plight are told by Harry Han
sen, in special cable to the Chicago News. While
the peace conference is debating over boundary
lines, the Czechs are starving. They say that
unless the allies give them aid and at once, Boil
shevism is likely to get the upper hand and the
little country go down in anarchy to ruin.
In Prague eggs cost crowns Gao cents) each,
but 30 to 100 crowns ($18 to 500 kilogram e
pounds.) Fat when it is possible to get it, costs
from 200 to 800 crowns ($4O to $500, kilogram,
and the supply is limited at those prices.
/. The Czechs complain that the Austrians are
getting more food from the allies than is coming
to them and are making piteous appeals for
help.
Mr.. Hoover is giving special attention to the
problem, the seriousness of which is fully real
lied by allies. The trouble seems to result from
lack OF transportation. It is reported that there
were $4,000 tons of foodstuffs at Trieste, and
that not more than 1000 tons had reached the
interior. Early last week the warehouses were
so full that the ships could not unload their
cargoes.
The problem is serious one but must be
solved quickly if the infant country is to be
saved.
