OBITUARY
Elizabeth WolIastOn

Elizabeth Wollaston, wife of the
late Albert Wollaston, died sud-
denly at her home on East Main
Street, on Friday, April second.
The deceased was in the seventy
eighth year of her age. Mrs. VOL
laston had been suffering with
rheumatism since the previous
Monday. On Thursday evening
she conversed with relatives who
had called to see her, apparently
much improved and far removed
from a serious condition. Shortly
after retiring at nine o'clock, how
ever, her heart suddenly collapsed
and she sank into an unconscious
state from which she never rallied,
gently sleeping away into a sweet
and peaceful death.
Mrs. Wollaston was the daugh-
ter of Mary and Springer Nc
Daniel of Stanton, and lifelong
resident of this community. She
was a devoted mother, a kind
neighbor, conscientious and eager
to carry her full share of any pub
lie service requested of the COM
munity, while many indeed have
felt the effects of kindly generos-
ity unknown to any but the recipi-
ents.
Funeral services We're held from
the late residence on Easter Mon
day, Rev. David A. Reed, pastor
of White Clay Creek church of
which the deceased had for years
been member, officiating. Rev. w.
J. Rowan, of the Newark Presby-
terian church, assisted at the SER
vices.
Interment in White Clay Creek
Cemetery.

large and valuable and very re.
markable collection of antiques

other prominent citizens joined ir
entertaining the visitors.

10 o'clock, with a very large at
tendance. Grand Chief John Still

BRITISH WARN REDS
Russians Ordered to Return Eng
Iish Prisoners.
Great Britain to Take Certain Ac-
ton" Should Captives Be Held
by Soviet Government.

London, Oct. 9.-Great Britain has
threatened to take certain action"
against Soviet Russia if steps are not
taken by Oct. 10 for the release of
British prisoners held by the Bolshev-
ki, says the Herald, organ of labor,
which prints what purports to be the
text of notes exchanged by the British
and Soviet governments.
Leonid Krassin. head Of the Russian
Bolshevik trade mission here, mas re-
piled on behalf of the Bolshevik re-
gime that it will promise TO fulfill the
conditions required by Great Britain
when the latter carries out her part of
the bargain made last July for the
mutual release of all prisoners, and
cessation of all hostile action.
The numper of prisoners in British
hands in Egypt, Persia. Constantine
pie and Batum, it is declared by Nj
krassin, has not been communicated
to the Soviet government. which de-
sires their return TO Russia.
Regarding Russian prisoners under
British control, Foreign Minister Cur
Zon said in his note: "A very limited
number of Russian subjects are in oul
hands and Great Britain desires TO ge
rid of them. They are being retained
| solely as means of inducing the Bol
! sheviki to fulfill their undertaking"

TRADE OUTLOOK GOOD
Reserve Board Reports on Busi.
ness Conditions.
Says Steady Resumption of Manufac-
turing Reflects Demand for Goods
Freight Situation o, X.

Washington, Oct. S.-Slashing of
prices has caused a revival of business
in the retail trade, and a more hope
full outlook for the winter months, it
was shown in reports made to the fed
eral reserve board from various re-
serve bank centers.
Steady resumption of manufacturing
activity reflects a freer demand for
goods, and cancellations of orders are
not believed to be as heavy as ap-
peared a few weeks ago.
A distinctly hopeful sign in the in
dustrial trend is the improvement gen.
orally noted in the transportation sta
t1stlcs. There is less criticism over
lack of cars to move goods. Improved
car supply has resulted in better mar
keting of goods. The quicker handling
of freight by the railroads has had q
stimulating effect in various fields OF
industry
Growth of optimism among business
men is reported and business is saiC
to be approaching a greater degree OF
stability. Reports further state thai
in many leading districts, despite &
demand which is lower than a veal
! ago, some factories are kept going
not alone upon new orders, but upo1
orders which have accumulated fo
the past few months.
Officials state that the spirit of hesi
fancy manifested over price reductions
is still in evidence, but not in such
| pronounced degree as when the pric,
cutting began. Reports seem to indi
cate there will be continuation il
revival of buying.

PRESIDENT SETS
ARMISTICE DAY
Wilson Orders the Flag at Half
Mast on Sunday, No.
vember ID.
TO HONOR HEROIC YANK DEAD
Asks Observance as Token of Nations
Participation in Memorial Serv.
ices-SeIection of Formal Day
Must Be Through Legis-
Iation,

Washington, oct. 9.-President Will
son directed that on Sunday, Novem-
Der IA, the American flag be displayed
at half-mast on all public buildings
and naval ana military posts las a
token of the nations participation in
the memorial services held for the he
roic American soldiers, sailors, ma
rines and others who gave their lives
to their country in the World war"
In connection with the order, the
President authorized this statement:
There has been transmitted to me
a suggestion that l name Sunday, No
vember Il, as Armistice Sunday, in Or
der that the religious services held
throughout the country on that day
may be given an especial note of re-
membrance for the heroic services and
sacrifices of those who died for Amer
lea in the World war.
"The selection of a formal day
which shall annually be set aside to
commemorate our participation in tie
World war will some day day Doubt
less be effected through legislation,
and already Memorial day, rich in he
roic memori IS, has acquired additional
significance as being appropriate also
to the commemoration of the heroes
of the World war. l am, however, so
heartily in favor of the suggestion
that has been made that take this
occasion to express publicly my ap-
proval of the idea.
November IA, 1918, will always be
memorable as the beginning of the END
of the most terrible and destructive
of all wars. Our beloved country took
noble part in Fastening the arrival
of the day hailed by the whole worlt
as the dawn of peace; but close upor
the day of victory followed realiza
ton of loss, and the anniversary will
bring with it solemn thoughts to the
minds of every American, memories o.
brave men who fell, sympathy TO,
their living relatives and those relig
ious reflections in which nations, lik,
individuals, must seek hope and con
ISOLATION.
THAT Sunday, November IA, thi
year being the Sunday immediatel,
following the anniversary, should b
observed in all our churches by suit
able memorial services for the heroi
American soldiers. sailors and marine
who gave their lives TO their countr
in the World war, seems to be em
nently fitting and proper, and l con
mend the suggestion to those who cor
duct such service"

NEWS REVIEW OF
CURRENT EVENTS
Russian Reds, Whipped in the
Field, Agree to Armistice
With the Poles.
SUBMIT TO ALL DEMANDS
eovIet Forces May Concentrate Against
Wranoel-Peaee In Ireland Nearer
Some Late Developments In
Our Presidential Campaign.
BY EDWARD W. PIcKARD.

Thoroughly whipped by the Poles,
the Russian Bolshevlki have signed an
armistice with their opponents, and on
october ID hostilities are supposed to
cease. The full terms agreed upon at
Riga have not yet been given to the
public. but enough has been told to
show that Poland has won virtually
all her contentious. M. Joffe, head of
the Russian delegation, was In no po-
sition to refuse anything within rea-
son, and indeed he had been instruct
ed to accept almost any terms the
Poles might offer.
The western boundary line Of soviet
Russia was the main matter under
discussion. and this was settled entire
ly in favor of the Poles, according to
reports from Riga. The line is placed
so far east that Lithuania is cut off en-
tirely from Russia, and Poland is
given a corridor between those two
countries. The boundary agreed upon
begins east of Dvinsk. runs south
through Baranovitchi, Luniniets and
Sarny. and virtually along the German
line of 1915 TO the Roumanian frontier.
The Poles have asserted repeatedly
that the Lithuanians have been fight
ing alongside the Russians, and this
boundary settlement should. therefore,
go far in bringing about n peaceful
agreement between Poland and Lithu-
ania; when that Is accomplished the
Poles viii be free to turn their atten-
tion to the establishment Of their own
government and the development of
their country. They have agreed to be
neutral in the Ukraine. where the so
Wet and Petlura forces are fighting,
and Russia gives up all claims to east
ern Galicia.
1t is asserted by some correspond
ents that Dombski, head of the Polish
mission at Riga, was moved to hurry
up the agreement with the Russians
by the admonltions Of the British am.
bassador In Warsaw and also by the
movements of his political opponent
Prince Sapieha. In addition, say these
correspondents, the liberal Dombsk
element In Poland, is somewhat
alarmed by the successes Of Baror
Wrangel in southern Russia; consider
ing that the restoration Of the ole
Russian empire would constitute {
great danger to Poland. Many experts
believe that Russo-Polish peace vii
result in the crushing of Wrangel ant
his armies. 1t is taken for grantec
that the soviet government win a
once concentrate its efforts on tn
Crimean front.

Over fifty years ago young
physician practiced widely in a
rural district and became famous
for his uniform success in the
curing Of disease. This was DR..
Fierce, who afterwards estab.
lished himself in Buffalo, N. Y,
and placed one of his prescriptions,
which he called Golden Medical
Discovery" in the drug stores of
the United States so that the pub
lie could easily obtain this very
remarkable tonic, corrective and
blood maker. DR.. Pierce manu-
factured this Discovery" from
roots and barks-a corrective
remedy, the ingredients of which
nature had put in the fields and
forests, for keeping us healthy.
Few folks or families now living
have not at sometime or other used
this Golden Medical Discovery"
for the stomach, liver and heart.

RECORD CORN CROP IN U. S.
Washington Reports 1t Reaches g.
216,o0o,000 Bushels, the
Largest Ever.

Washington, Oct. ia corn crop Of
3,216,000,O00 bushels, or 100000
bushels greater than the record crop
of 1912, was forecast by the depart
ment Of agriculture from a condition
of S9.1 October l.
There was a further falling off,
however, in the total wheat crop fore
cast, production being placed at $780,
64S,0O0 bushels, as compared with a
forecast of 77O,OCU,OOO bushels a
month ago.
The spring wheat crop was forecast
at 21S,0070O bushels.
Production of oats was placed at
LA, 1862, 900 bushels, an increase of
about 2,523,O00 bushels during the

to the fact that the Russian crop out
look is the worst ever experienced and
that in consequence the country faces
starvation during the coming winter.
Lenine and the other leaders have
been making desperate efforts to re-
open commercial relations with Great
Britain and Italy and to make peace
with Roumania, but these efforts have
been fruitless so far. The Red sol
diers are mutinying and assassinating
their officers, and the Russian people
generally are in despair.
In Petrograd especially the condi-
tions are terrible, and all the inhab-
itants who can are fleeing from the
city. The Finnish Red Cross has just
issued an appeal to the Red Cross So
cieties of the World describing the
shocking state Of affairs in the former
capital. The population has shrunk to
about 100000, and thousands are dying
every month of various kinds of epi-
denies. There Is no fuel, no hot wa
ter for baths, no street cleaning or re-
moval Of garbage, and the streets are
becoming impossible because the paw
ing blocks are being burned and the
water pipes are bursting. The hos
pitals are overfowing with patients
and their equipment is wretchedly in
adequate.
Death" says the report, "stalks on
every side, waiting for winter to aid
in the grim work of moving down the
silent, hungry sick, and dying thou
sands. With streets and houses choked
with filth that is already spreading
spotted and intermittent typhus, the
cold weather will finish the task with
pneumonia and abdominal typhus."
