Mr.. Hunter recalled that on June 5

after the act became law to give no.

Incorrectly Advised
"The President in asserting that Con-

abrogation of q treaty or part of a

advised" said Mr.. Hunter
The President has not only put him
self into conflict with the law of the
land, but has put himself above it by
declaring that he, while elected as the
servant of the people, is above the
law established by them. In view Of
the decisions of the Supreme Court the
error Of the President is unquestion-
able His contention is without ,eg

TUBBERCURRY. Ireland. Oct. 3 (Bv
The Associated Press) This town is
hs!f in ruins and it's remnant of in
hsbitants are living in dread of a re-
turn of the raid of last week. A hand
full of seemingly nervous police have
shut themselves inside the barracks
with the body of the slain District In
spector Brady.
The correspondent was told how Act
ing County Commissioner Russell tried
TO prevent the destruction Of the town
and from the managers of the two fire
swept creameries he received their ac-
counts Of an heroic struggle in the
darkness and thick fog to save the
institutions with which the fortunes of
almost the entire community were
bound up. and from the wife of one of
the managers Of the creameries he
heard a story Of how she and her three
children escared from bullets, and also
bow She. while facing four rifles
pointed at her head, contrived a ruse

For many weeks, the CORES spondent
was told, the local police had been sub
jected to a boycott by the townspeo
the shopkeepers even refusing to ac-
ceding Thursdays raid on the town the
people were declared TO have been fired
on from the roofs of large general
store adjoining the barracks. This
building later was riddled with bullets
and its interior wrecked. This incl
dent intensified the feeling between the
people and the police.
Populace Fled in Panic
When the news on Thursday after
noon Of the ambushing of a police
orry reached Tubbercurry two-thirds
of its nine hundred population fled in
panic, anticipating q speedy reprisal.
About midnight four Torres, filled with
uniformed r.en, and, it is said, inclUd-
ing Commissioner Russell, arrived in
Tubbercurry. Two of them came from
the direction of Ballymote and two
from the direction of Sligo.
Accounts Of what happened after
ward, as given TO the correspondent by
various townspeople, follow:
The lorries stopped in front of a
public house, and when the occupants
got out Commissioner Russell begged
lnem Not 10 destroy property. One
man answered the commissioaer with
an oath, and all the men rushed tow
ard the saloon, which, quickly was
broken open. An orgy of drinking,
bottle-smashing and wrecking ensued,
sfter which the men broke up into
groups and proceeded systematically
with the work of destruction. With
incendiary bombs and petrol they set
rre TO the towns largest general store,
which was destroyed Two other stores
were burned and fifteen smaller shops
and residences were more or less dam

German subjects. His birth WAS req
lstered in Russia as Of German parent
age, and he was educated In Russia as
an engineer, following that profession
until 1899, when after having snent
three years in prison for revolutionary
activities ne was deported by the Rus
SIAN authorities to Germany, where
he was held as a German subject to
the military service which the German
government required.
ia 1906 Martens took up his resi-
dence in England, where he remained
for ten years. Until the beginning Of
the war in 1914 no occasion arose in
England Tor the determination of his
citizenship; but in October of that year
registration, in most cases accom-
panied by internment, Of German sub
Jects was set on foot. Martens then
registered as German subject as a
purely technical matter" according to
his testimony, alleging that to be the
reason why he was not interned.
FOLLOWING his decision to come to
America. permission to make the
journey was accorded by the British in
spector under the alien act. and Mar
tens and his wife came to the United
States on January 2, 1916, and upon
landing at New York, he declared him
self to be German subject, making
the regular declaration under oath.
Upon the issuance, December 81,
1917, OF the rules and regulations for
the registration of German enemy
aliens in the United States, Martens
did not so register, basing his claim
upon the assertion that he had been
made Russian citizen by virtue OF
a decree of the provisional government
of Prince Lvov He was unable TO fur
nish any copy Of this decree"

Whats in a Name

,JUANITA

JOAiNIlH
The lovely Spanish favorite Juanita
has come to be name without a
country" The music of its syllables
proved irresistible to many countries
and in modern times, it has lost its
Spanish heritage and come to be as
American as Anne or Edith.
Juanita means grace of the Lord"
1t comes originally from the same
source as John. 1t was probably in
honor of St. John the Evangelist's
guardianship of the Blessed Virgin
that her name became joined with his.
In the fifth century Giovanni John)
Maria Visconti of Milan appears and
straightway, Juan Maria becomes a
popular name in Spain.
By adding a final "a" the feminine
Juana was formed, a name which
proved more acceptable than the mas
culine Juan as preface to Maria, and
soon Maria was dropped entirely and
Juana became a separate name. Spain
is fond of endearments and diminu-
tives, as Rosita and Carmencia and
scores of other names prove, SO pres
emily the ever popular Juanita was
evolved. Many famous women of
Spain bore the name, among them a
queen, who was known as Juana la
Loca. Her reign in Castillo was an
unfortunate and distressing period.
1t may be that the Spanish influence
in the southwestern states brought
Juanita into vogue in this country, or
her fame, according to some. may
have been established by the country
wide vogue of the old song with which
even the present generation is fam
iliar. Who does not remember:
"Juanita, ask thy soul if we should
part?

Uses her protection from evil spirits,
good health and happiness. Tuesday
is her lucky day and her lucky

lists, and Reouf Bey, deputy for Sivas
and mouthpiece of Mustapha Renal in
this city; Cara Vassif Bey, and several
other members of the chamber of
deputies, have been deported, presum-
ably to Malta, by the British.
They were placed on board the
cruiser HIBISCUS Friday shortly before
that warship sailed.
After Mustapha Renal and Reouf

hest known speaker and organizer in
the nationalist movement. When the
Greeks landed at Smyrna and some
Turks we're killed, she cast aside all
traditions of Turkish women.
She organized and addressed mass
meetings and so inflamed the Turks
here against alleged plans for the dis
memberment of the country that the
allied high commissioners forbade
further meetings. She has often been
described in the British press as a
'firebrand and a dangerous agitator."

She is a, widely travelled, handsome
woman and distinguished herself dur

who was head of the Turkish Red
Crescent, which fills the place of the
