Letter from Manchester District

1t was with genuine pleasure that
we grasped the hand of a young
minister of the Gospel, Rev. Paul
Horich. who was reared in our midst,
and is preparing to leave Gettysburg
Seminary to accept a charge at Pied
mont, wv. Va, Westernport, Md, be-
ing opposite, just across the Mason
and Dixon line. The two towns con-
tain a total population of 5000 or
more. We wish him unbounded sue
cess in preaching the Gospel, and
winning souls to Christ. We also eX-
tend the same greeting to a young
man from a sister town, Pleasant Hill,
Rev. w, E. Garrett, who attended the
same seminary and who has accepted
a charge at Keysar, w. Va, just 8
miles from the above named place.
We need many more young, consecrat-
ed men to show the people the differ
ence in pleasure as the world sees it,
and pleasure in obeying His COM

us. every day.

In these days of rapidly nearing

know, is a high class hostelry. One
of our young men, living in the city
for quite a number of years, is re

1t has now been fully decided by
President Wilson to furnish stand

1t seems that Germany is not will
ing to concede to the terms OF the
Treaty as laid down by the Allies,
introduced by President Wilson, head
of one of the allied nations. By the
terms of the Treaty, Germany must

of her territory, situated in all parts
of tho U1nhn and inhahi nv more

The Testament League" an or

carry a testament and read at least
a chapter or more each day, is rapid

Talk about intensive farming, we
are just beginning to learn the first
principles of the art, if it may be so
called. Before me is a photograph OF
a Potato Patch,'' SKIS feet, with 200
hills, enough to supply the average
family with tubers for year. Seed
catalogues advertise climbing cucum-
bers to save ground space. This ''PO-
tatO Patch is built up in tires, COM
posed of large boxes made of boards
each containing the necessary soil,
fertilizer and drainage, a given space
between each tier or box. If this can
be successfully done by Mr.. D. A.
Smith, of California, many others
will try the experiment.

INJUNCTION DENIED,
BREWERS WIN CASE
COURT DECLARED DECISION HAD
BEEN INFLUENCED BY PRES
DENTS MESSAGE.
2sl Per Cent Alcohol is Nonintoxicat-
ing Was Assured When Judge Mayer
Granted Injunction Restraining Gov
ern Interference With Manufacture.

New k.-Uninterrupted produc-
ton of "war beer" until the Courts
have passed upon the claim of the
United States Brewers Association
that the beverage containing ~ per
cent alcohol was assured when Fed
eral Judge Mayer granted an injunc-
ton restraining Government interior
ence with it's manufacture. The
Court declared that the decision had
been influenced by President Wilson'S
message to Congress- Recommending
repeal of the wartime prohibition act
insofar as it relates to beer and wines,
and by Federal Judge A. N. Hands
ruling that the law placed ban on
the manufacture only of liquors that
were, in fact, intoxicating, Although
United States District Attorney Caffey,
representing the Government, opposed
granting an injunction, Judge Mayer
said he believed such action would con-
tribute to fair settlement of the
questions raised by the brewers under
the emergency prohibition act. The
injunction, a temporary one. would be
effective, the Court said, pending re-
view of his decision by the Circuit
Court of Appeals, or if the Govern
ment should decide to let it stand UNI
til the brewers suit to enjoin perma-
nently prosecutions for manufacture
of the 2% per cent brew would be
tried in the District Court.
Judge Mayer announced that he
would sign the temporary injunction
next Monday, and suggested that the
Federal attorney and Elihu Root and
William u. Guthrie, counsel for the
brewers, confer with the senior Judge
of the Court of Appeals to arrange an
early review of the order. District At
torney Caffey pointed out that, if pos
sible, a decision on appeal should be
obtained before July l, when prohi0l-
ton of the sale of intoXicants becomes
effective unless Congress in the mean
time follows the suggestion of the
President for repeal amendment of
the law. The injunction granted was
in the suit of the Jacob Rupert Brew
ing Co. against District Attorney CAT
fey and Acting Collector of Internal
Revenue McElligot. This is one of a
series of cases raising identical ques-
tions, intended to test the emergency
prohibition act in the New York dis
trict, thus setting precedent for
brewery operation throughout the
country.

AGITATORs ROUNDUP URGED
Would Deport All Anarchists ard
RoIshevks From America.

Neutrality-suspicious. debate on the
S15,OOO,OO0 Indian appropriation Dill
was completed by the House in accord
ance with the schedule arranged by
the Republicans for rushing through
the appropriation measures which
failed in the last Congress and which
must be passed before July l. The
bill will come up for final passage.
Members of the House took advantage
of the four hours debate allowed on
the bill to speak on various subjects
in which they were interested. Repre-
sentative Albert Johnson, of Washing
ton, chairman of the immigration Com
mittee, urged that the nation begin
cleaning house" at once of all Dol
shevik agitators," and that while this
was being done the countrys doors
should be closed to other aliens.

Guns as clubs if the crowd attempts

More than hundred women are al

their husbands. Firemen are working
IN the ruins in an effort to get at the
imprisoned men, but it is not believed
flat the men buried in the debris are
alive. The explosion wrecked the
heavy machinery on the top hoors,
which crashed through to the lower
floors and crushed many men, the po-
lice believe. It is estimated that the
loss will be S2,225,0OO, including the
damage to buildings in the heart or
the city, which were damaged by the
force of the shock. The Douglas go.

is a total ruin.

there were 103 men in the building
when the explosion occurred. HOW

Two Understandable bodies taken
from the plant were charred badly.
Legs of bodies could be seen protrud-

of the wreck. Until the records are
available it will be impossible to OBJ
