of Minnesota.
Weiss denied the charge and said
he had treated his horses the best he
knew how and that he had never
knowingly committed wrong.
Justice King explained to him the
law covering the case and told him it
was necessary that he plead either
guilty or not guilty. Defendant, how
ever consumed considerable time in
processing his innocence and refused
to plead until Charley Werling ap-
peared on the scene and advised him
to plead guilty for the reason that if
the case came to trial it would cost
him a great deal more money. Weiss
Immediately saw the point and did as
advised-pleaded guilty.
Following consultation with Coun-
ty Attorney Doane, the court, upon
Weiss promise to take better care of
his horses in the future, and it being
his first offense, imposed light fine
S. and costs, amounting in all to
about $40.
County Attorney Doane gave defen-
dant some good advise, telling him
that the people of this country would
not tolerate cruelty and that if ever
he again appeared in court on similar
charge the penalty imposed would be
a heavy one.
Had the case come to trial Marshal
Young would have produced score or
more Of witnesses to prove the charges
in his complaint.
Two of the defendants horses were
recently shot by the marshal, to put
them out Of their misery, an account
of which appeared in the Union. Weiss
has now purchased two more horses
and Marshal Young intends to keep an
eye on him and again arrest him if he
discovers that the animals are cruelty
treated.
Let us hope that Weiss has learned
a lesson and that he will discard the
heavy whip with which Mr.. Young
says he has been numerically beating
his horses.

The evening service was largely in
the nature of a sacred concert, the
first half hour being devoted to vocal
selections by the Apollo quartet, with
Mrs. Wickman, Mr.. Brown and Mr.
Marquis taking the solo parts. There
was also duet by Mr.. Brown and
Mr.. Marquis. All these vocalists are
talented artists-among the best in
the country-and the rendition Of cv-
cry number was superb. The concert
was a rare treat to the music lovers
in attendance.
Rev. Milne read the scripture lesson
a prayer was offered by Rev. Lesher
and an offering taken up. Rev. Shaw
delivered the sermon, his subject be-
ing "The Future Church. 1t was an
excellent discourse and was much ap-

hymn and pronouncement Of benedic-
ton by Rev. Shaw closed the days
programs.
Among those in attendance at both
services was Mrs. Margaret Gillian,
who came from her home in Winni-

IN THE DAYS NEWS

Marshal Foch, who today is to be
presented with magnificent baton
by delegation representing the
Knights of Columbus in America, was
the supreme commander of the allies
forces in the final period of the World
War. Prior to his selection for this
important post he had distinguished
himself as one of the most brilliant
French commanders in the war. The
great victory Of the battle of the
Marine was largely due to his strate.
gical genius. He was the chief direc.

tor of the battles Of Ypres and Of the
Iser, and the safety Of Calais was
largely due to him. In 1915 he was in
command of the offensive in Artois,
and of the Somme fighting in 1916.
AS boy of 10, the future Marshal of
France fought in the Franco russian
war, and afterward returned to take
up his studies at the Ecole Polytech-
niQue. AS evidence by his record in
the late war Marshal Foch combines
great practical ability in the field with
deep knowledge of strategy and Of
military theory.

Titanic Quake Rips Earth Crust
For Hours, Perhaps Under Sea

WASHINGTON, Dec. 6.-Somewherc
perhaps leagues deep beneath the Al
lantic Ocean, and forever hidden from
the eyes of man, the earth's crust wa.
torn and twisted to-day by titanic
convulsion.
For hours the earth's surface shud-
dered under the feet of its needless
millions. Force waves thousands OF
miles in length swept outward from
that storm center like ripples on q
rock broken pool Ye. only the un-
sleeping seismographs noted it and in
scribcd a mute record for watchful
scientists.
First word of the disturbance came
from Georgetown University here
When the Rev Father Francis A. Ton
dorf, director Of the seismographic OBJ
scrvatory, peered at his delicate mech
anism this morning it told him of a
shock more severe than any recorded
in the last two years. Somewhere the
power beneath the surface was still
bullying at the carth's crust, holding it
in check.
Father Tondorf rent out word of the
shock, thinking it might be- another
great disaster. As the day went by,
however no word came back over the

Deportation
OF Martens
Secretary Wilson Finds He
Advocates Overthrow of
American Government bv
Force Under Soviet Plan
To Get Utmost Courtesy
Directs Best Shipping Ac-
commodations for Return
of Russian ssAmbassador''

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1s. Deporta-
tion of Ludwig c. A. X. Martens. un-
recognized Soviet "Ambassador'' to the
United States, was ordered to-day BIZ
Secretary Wilson of the Labor Depart
ment.
The Labor Secretary's order stated
that Martens is an alien, citizen Of
Russia and a member of and affiliated
with an organization advocating the
overthrow of the government of the
United States by force. He directed
the Commissioner General of Immigra-
tion to take the Bolshevik agent into
custody ana to deport him to Russia at
the expense Of the government of the
United States. Mr.. Wilson in his order
added that Martens should be treated
with the utmost courtesy and given
the best available accomm modations in
transit"
Martens is expected by officials to be
given leave 70 settle his affairs in the
United States before the PRONUNCIATION
OF the warrant of deportation.
Government officials also expect
that an effort will be made by Mar
tens's counsel to stay the warrant BY
All appeal to the courts such as was
done under similar circumstances bv
Emma Goldman and Alexander Berk-
man when appeals were taken by them
as far as the Supreme Court of the
United States.
The specific charge against Martens
which was found to warrant deportation
IN the decision handed down by Secre-
tary Wilson was that # having been
found in the United States in violation
of the immigration act of October 16,
1918, providing for deportation of ali
aliens belonging to an organization ad-
vocating the overthrow of the govern
ment Of the United States by force. The
Secretary, after quoting from the off,
cial pronunciamentos of the Russian
Soviet government, advocating the
overthrow of the government Of the
United States by force, concludes that
Martens, through his connection with
the Russian Soviet government, came
within the meaning Of the act
The plea of Martens's counsel that
he was an accredited official Of a for
eign government and therefore beyond
the jurisdiction of the Department Of
Labor in deportation proceedings was
not accepted by Secretary Wilson, who,
in a review Of legal precedents, held

cables or telegraph wires, leaving to
conjecture the scene and exact nature
of the disturbance.
Experienced observer that he is,
Father Tondorf classed the record of
his instruments as that Of terrible"
shock. 1t began soon after o'clock
this morning here, reached its greatest
intensity toward 8 o'clock and was still
leaving q wavering. diminishing trail
after noon as the earth slowly settled
TO quiet.
The chart indicated an east-westerly
direction. Father Tondorf estimates
the distance from Washington at $500
miles. First impressions were indis-
tinct, he said, while records of great
disturbances in South or Central Amer
lea have been recorded sharply and
clearly at the observatory. 1t might
have been. the scientist said, subma-
rine disturbance, q new mountain peak
flung up under the waves. There was
no way to judge. he added. The dis
tance eastward would place the scene
not far from the Azores, but no word
of an earthquake came from any quar-
ter, although the quake was recorded
by Instruments at Cambridge, Mass;
Ithaca, N. Y; st. Louis. Mo-; Chicago,
Halifax, Toronto, Philadelphia. New
