Cologne, May 16.-Pope Benedict is
being importuned to intervene in the
situation between the allied powers
and Germans. Cardinal Hartmound,
Archbishop of Cologne, is making the
request claiming that a complete
breakdown menaces Germany.
In his appeal the Cardinal asserted
that the peace conditions would mean
the utter ruin of Germany, and would
be a cruel violation of the rights Of
70,000,000 inhabitants of the country.
Berlin, May 15.--In consequence of
yelled insinuations in the Pan-German
newspapers that the Ebert-Scheide-
mann Government intends to sign the
allied peace terms, notwithstanding
their severe provisions, semiofficial
announcement was made today that
these insinuations strike a false note
and that the Government is fully unit
ed In its intentions to carry out its
recently stated policy of declining to
sign the compact.
Reports that lack of unity exists in
the Cabinet are also denied. The an
nouncement declares that there is
complete unity between the Versailles
plenipotentaries and Berlin, and that
the Government knows itself to be
one with the Overwhelming majority
of the people. s,s.A
Continuing the announcement says
that the Government will not be fore
ed into a hasty "Yes" or hasty basic
No" and that it is determined tc
abide by its original stand on the un
bearableness and impossibility of ful
filling the present peace terms. The
announcement concludes by saying
that the Government will attempt tC
negotiate an understanding which will
culminate in peace of justice. It Is
stated that Matthias Erzberger, who
has been accused of differing from
the cabinet, is completely in accord
with its views.

and NC-1 since early this morning,
naval officials were confident that
both these transatlantic fiiers had
reached the Azores. le
The latest reports showed that the
two craft were only a short distance
away and because OF the time that
has elapsed since these reports were
received il was assumed that they

With NC-4 leading, the three naval
transatlantic fiiers had completed two
thirds OF their course from Trepassey
to the Azores at $50.
Washington, May 1.-THE naval
seaplane NC-4 was few hundred miles
from Corvo, an island of the Azores,
at $40 Washington time.
Washington, May 1.-THE radio
station at Bar Harbor, Maine, inter-
cepted direct messages from two of
the seaplanes shortly after midnight.
One message picked up at 1927
o'clock was from the NC-1 calling sta
tion ship No. 8, approximately 500
miles from Trepassey bay.
Washington, May 16-The Ameri-
can naval seaplsnes en- route on the
first attempt to reach Europe from
America by air passed station ship
No. 6, the destroyer Ward 800 miles,
from Trepassey bay, 2:05 Greenwich
time (10;O5 p. m. Washington time)
according to a message received late
tonight by the navy department.
The dispatch to the navy depart
ment was sent by the Ward to the U.
S. S. Prairie at Trepassey Bay which
in return relayed 1t by radio to St
Johns, N. f., whence it reached Wash
ington by cable and telegraph The
means of sending the message back,
indicated that the U. S. S. Aroostook
already had left Trepassey and that
the destroyer line behind the swiftly
flying planes was rapidly breaking up.
A delayed message over the same
route said the planes had passed Stat
ion ship No. 3 at S.0S p( NJ, flying
twelve minutes difference between
the passing of the first and the last
OF the trio. The NC-1 was leading at
that time.
Navy officials estimate the speed
made by the seaplanes up to the time
they passed station ship No. 6 at 10
miles an hour. At that rate they
would reach Ponta Delgada about on
the schedule OF 10 hours, or l p. m. to-
morrow, Washington time.
The planes were in radio commune
cation before II o'clock tonight with
the destroyers OF the second group of
the bridge OF ships that point the
way across the sea.

OUR CITY MOURNS THE
DEATH OF MRS. w. S. ROSS.

There is sorrow in every heart in thi
community occasioned by the death o
Mrs. W. S. Ross who died at the Gen
erel Hospital in Madison early Tuesda,
morning of this week, Sept 30th.
Mrs Ross had been in failing healtl
for more than year, and it was {
brave battle indeed that this splendiC
woman made for life. She was an ex.
ceptional woman in many ways. Born
with that grand gift to be active and
do good, she filled her mission to a
distnguishable degree ever prominent
in social circles and an active leader in
religious and charitable organizations.
Sir realized pleasure, a love. in adj
ministering to those in distress and
want and in a quiet way literally be-
slowed substantial aid and cheer. Her
nat1ral intellect was strengthened by
scholarly attachments which she al
ways exercised for good, Well may
it be said, Mrs. Ross was one of the
most genuine of women, and with that
guenineness was commingled capacity
for friendship that made association
with her a rare and unforgettable thing.
Her passing, and forever, is an inn
measurable loss TO the community.
To the heavily bereaved there is this
to offer When one is asked to endure
the cutting pain of great grief, the
sympathy of those about you helps not
iietle to obviate the bitterness of it
all but when, as in this case, whole
community and countryside comes with
sorrow of their own so deep, your
sympathy might just as well go out to
them, then indeed the bitterness passes,
to be replaced by great pride that
you can claim kinship to her that is
gone.
The remains, accompanied by her
husband and son. were conveyed here
Tuesday evening, and the funeral will
take place this Thursday afternoon at
3 o'clock.
We hope to publish fitting obituary
next week.

Tuesday evening, members of the
Methodist congregation and friends
gathered at Epworth House 10 extend
welcoming reception TO their new
pastor, Rev. John Birrell, and family.
A goodly number attended, considering
weather conditions, and the cordial and
hearty manner in which they were re-
ceived and entertained left no doubt in
the minds of the newcomers as to their
welcome.
A pleasing program was carried out,
consisting of vocal solos by Mr. Darrah
and Mrs. Freelove double ladies omar
;et and addresses by Rev. Birrel, Rev.
Schoenfeld and r. Y. Hutchinson, with
~. b. Reynolds as chairman Of the eve
ming. Time and ability will not permit
the comment the splendid addresses
merit, but there is no doubt in the
mines of those present that in Rev.
Birrel they have a pastor worthy of
their hearty support, and that the full
est cooperation of pastors and peoples
is highly desirable.
Light refreshments were served and
were of the usual excellent quality.

MANUAL TRAINING
Through the kindness Of the board of
education in purchasing the necessary
equipment for the manual training
shop, it appears the department will
have successful season.
The new machinery installed was
bench planer. mitre box, Domel rod
cutter, twenty new iron vises and num-
erous small articles, such as clamps,
planes, augers, etc. The shop is well
equipped for wood work, considering
the limited amount of working space.
SHORTHAND AND TYPEWRITrNG
There are thirty enthusiastic pupils
enrolled in the shorthand and typewrit-
ing classes This makes it necessary to
add two new typewriters to the five al |
ready in use, including the office ma
chine, in order to give each pupil one
hour of practice work every day. The
Seniors have taken care Of all the school
correspondence this year.
The equipment Of the department has
been made more efficient by placing in
dividual desks in the room. This is to
accommodate the twenty-six bookkeep-
ers.
