Great Property Damage and
Heavy Loss of Lives Mark
Reprisals Which Break /
Out in Cities.
Bombs Wreck Buildings

Berlin, Marsh 24.-Great property
damage and the loss of upwards OF
a score of lives marked communist
disorders in various cities and towns
in Prussian Saxony and i'll Ham
burg Yesterday. The trouble in Prus-
sian Saxony seemed to center about
the Mansfield district. Leaders OF
the movement seemed to center their
attention on banks and public build
ings, many of these editices being
badly shattered or completely
wrecked by high explosives.
Stories of violence. robbery and
virtual anarchy continued to arrive
last night from this region. Town
halls at Plauen and Rodewisch were
destroyed and county buildings at
Leipsic and Freiburg were damaged,
one person being injured at Freiburg.
The county court building i'll Dres-
den was badly damaged by an ex-
plosion and three persons were IN
jured. A similar attempt against the
town hall at Auerbach was frustrated
by the police capturing man carry
ing a bag OF dynamite.
Armed Men Rob Bank.
A party of armed men, riding IN
a motor lorry, attacked two savings
banks in Mansfield yesterday morn
ing and succeeded in securing about
100000 marks from the institution.
The savings bank at Helbra was
also robbed during the day, and
strikers in that town compelled the
Helbra Anzeiger to suspend publi-
cation. .."\
A large crowd surrounded the po-
lice barracks at Heststedt and de-
,nanded the surrender of arms
stored there. A deputation entered
the building to negotiate with the
police but the result of these parleys
has not been reported.
IS Killed in Hamburg.
Hamburg, March "a, - Fifteen
civilians and one police officer were
killed and six persons were wounded
in riots here late yesterday after
noon.
The mob attempted to break the
police Gordon about the Vulcan ship
yards and to disarm the police. The
police ordered the crowd to dispersc,
and when this order was ignored, the
officers opened fire and threw hand
grenades into the mob.
The Blohm and Noss ship yards,
about which there was-considerable
fighting yesterday, have been closed
by the management. III
Meeting Is Prevented.
Communist leaders tried to hold
a mass demonstration in Heiligen-
geist field in the Altona section Of
the city, but were unable to obtain
possession of the field. as the police
had erected barbed wire entangle-
ment around it and had stationed
armored cars at strategic points.
The crowd. foiled in its attempt to
hold a meeting stoned the armored
cars. Street car service was vir-
tually suspended during the day,

PUBLIC NOT INFORMED.
There Is no doubt that public
opinion in France and Russia would
have been different had public opin-
ion known the inside of this diplo-
matte wildcatting. NJ. Nelidoff. the
Russian ambassador at Paris, was an
able man in his line. That Is why
mouth of NJ. Pichon. the French min
lister for foreign affairs. that were
never uttered. and that is also the
reason why he could speak of this
openly to NJ. Iswolsky, both of them
knowing that in the end they would
have found some sort OF solution,
since the worst that might happen
was the very thing they wanted-to
wit. war.
There is a very interesting ."confi-
Dental" report, made by NJ. Neli-
don to Iswolsky. which shows up
among the papers as telegram No. 80.
dated March 19-April i, 1900. Neli-
don had recognized the necessity OF
prompting Iswolsky. He did this In
the following manner:
"The movement OF the Central Eu-
ropean states toward the Mcdittera-
mean is contrary not only to our own
Intentions, but also to the interests
of our allies and friends, the French
and English.
"The experience Of the last crisis
has proven that IL military meas
ures are already prepared in times of
peace diplomatic questions may all
the easier be solved by threats and
the exercise of strong pressure. The
art OF diplomacy consists of selecting
the favorable moment and Of utilizing
a favorable general situation, SO
that, conscious OF ones strength, one
may hold out to the end. Thus we
shall undoubtedly be able to alleviate
the unfavorable impression which the
failure Of our policy has now pro-
duced In liberating the kindred Bal
kan states from Austro- Hungarian in
fluence.
I AT the. present critical moment ]
consider Ii my duty to point to the
tendency of our policy, which, ac-
cording to my firm conviction. is
alone In accordance with our own in
terests, and which will as well be
supported by the French, and, I be-
Iieve, also by the British govern
ment"

RECTOR IS H0N0RED
st. Matthew's, HyattsviIIe, CeIe-
brates Its Great Growth Un-
der Rev. C. e. McAIIister.

Today IL the third anniversary of
the pastorate Of the Rev. Charles f.
McAllister, rector OF st. Matthews
Parish, Hyattsville, and the parish
oners are observing the event with
appropriate services.
The parish includes Pinkney Me-
mortal Church, Hyattsville; st. Johns,
Mt. Rainier. and st. Luke's Bladens-
burg.
Mr.. McAilister is one of the most ac-
tive of the younger clergy OF the
diocese of Washington. He is . NOM
ber of the diocesan board of religious
education. and during the past winter
directed the largest class In teacher
training ever held in the Episcopal
Church in the Capital.
Before coming to st. Matthews Par
ish. Mr.. McAllister was an assistant
at st. MichaeIs. New York city, and
fellow in the General Theological
Seminary. where he taught Greek and
New Testament history. During his
seminary course he led his class in all
subjects and won the two highest
prizes, the Mcvickar prizes In Greek
and history. He also received the
master of arts degree from Columbia
senior class at St. Stephens College,
the degree of A. b.
CHAPLAIN IN WAR.
During the world war he was a
voluntary chaplain at the Pelham Bay
Naval Training Station.
Mr.. McAllister Is @ graduate OF
Eastern High School. While the pres
ent bishop of Washington was rector
Of ST. Pauls, Mr.. McAllister was a
choir boy.
The growth OF st. Matthews parish
during Mr. McAllister's rect orship has
been great. All the organizations
have increased In membership. In ad-
dition to the organizations in the
parish three years ago there have
been established two chapters of the
Daughters Of the King. two women's
guilds, a Little Helpers Club. a girls
choir, a iourishing young peoples

club and q junior chapter Of tho
Brotherhood Of st. Andrew.
When Mr. McAllister came to Hy-
attsville. there was no record of the
number OF baptisims. There are now
1920 haptised persons enrolled In the
parish. The number OF communicates
in 1918 was 425.. II IL now e46. There
have been 124 baptisms and 13s con-
nrmations. In 1918 It's were enrolled
in the Sunday school and there are
now nearly 500.

GUILTY OF FORGERY.
In banking terms that is forgery.
But II seems that Iswolsky did not
mind such little excursions into the
realms of fancy by his agents, despite
the fact that he was Juggling with the
veal and woe Of hundreds of millions
The report continues.
Though your decision to recognize
the. Austro-Turkish agreement by an
exchange of notes differs from the
understanding arrived at between
Russia. England and France to dis
cuss this question at a conference. the
French government was on the whole
satisfied, since your decision contrib
uted to the peaceful solution of a
crisis which threatened to lead to an
armed conflict the cause for which
as 1 have already reported to you
found no echo in the French popula-
tion.
The magnitude of Dur sacrifice has
been perfectly well understood here,
and public opinion Is grateful to you
for the courageous determination to
secure the preservation OF European
peace at this high price. Neverthe-
less. the foreign office was un-
pleasantly affected by the fact that
the Russian government had not also
made its agreement dependent upon
that Of the other powers and that the
recognition OF the annexation OF
Bosnia was not conditioned upon the
assent of Austria to the proposals
made by the three powers in respect
to Serbia.
SUCCESS OF DIPLOMACY.
"In connection with this, German
and Australian journals have erhpha-
sized the success OF Austrian diplo-
macy and the predominant position Of
the Dual Monarchy in the Balkans.
In consequence of this, public opinion
in France, as well as in England
demands more and more still
greater rapprochement between Rus
sia, France and England, as they have
already acted in common during the
Austro- Serbian conflict in
order to be able, once they are in a
position not to fear>a challenge Of
the Triple Alliance-and In this case
Italy would separate herself from the
Triple Alliance-to set up on their
part demands which would restore
the political balance which has now
been displaced in favor of Germany
and Austria.
This is the direction which the
Paris and also. apparently. the Lon
don cabinet wish to give TO their
policy. in the firm conviction that
Russian policy is also directed to-

The French could not see that the
Serbian claims were worth going to
war for, as the Russian ambassador
at Paris was obliged to state in the
letter. The fact is that, at this juno
ture, neither the British nor the
french government was willing to
go far in supporting the. schemes of

Seed Corn.

Get your Bibles and turn to II
Corinthians, ninth chapter and sixth
verse. You will find that it reads
"But this l say, he which soweth
sparingly shall reap also sparingly;
and he which soweth bountifully shall
reap also bountifully."
An examination of the context
shows that in the Apostles thought
the seed corn is the money that a
man gives to the cause of Christ. 1t
is not the money he invests in his own
business but that which he invests in
the kingdom. If he takes but little out
of his general store for the great
cause he is like a man who is too
close to use enough seed corn to plant
crop. The bad results show up in
the next harvest. We have never
konwn a farmer who sowed- 'sparing-
ly.' There are farmers in South Caro-
lima who have not got wisdom to get
enough fertilizers or enough of the
right kind, but we doubt if the State
contains single man who refuses to
plant enough seed corn to make the
next crop. Always they plant enough
and they plant the best.
But what cannot be found among
the farmers of the State can perhaps,
with search warrant, be discovered
in some of our churches. There are
men who do not give enough to insure
harvest of Gods blessings on their
labors. We suppose that the real
cause is in the fact that men have not
come to look on money given to
Christ as seed corn,' not simply the
seed corn for the spiritual harvest,
but as being the seed corn Of mans
material success. In this connection
it would be well to read the entire
section, especially verse 10: "And
he that supplieth seed to the sower
and bread for food shall supply and
multiply your seed for sowing and in
crease the fruits of your righteous
ness"
We sometimes say that the reason
that we do not give more is because
we have so little. But the real truth
turns about. The reason that we have
so little is because we sow so little.
Giving does not spring from pros
perity, but prosperity springs from
giving.-Baptist Courier.

Ode to the Boil Weevil.

with apologies to Longfellow.)
Tell me not in mournful numbers
That this weevil is pest.
For by its destructive ravages
ine fas@er of the South is blessed.
No more shal the single planting
Of the cotton cres be done,
No more shall he lap,e. painting
Under broiling August Sun.
For now he knows his salvation
His release from care and pain,
Is to plant the crop that feed him,
Corn and oats and sugar cane.
No more now shall Wall Street gel
him,
When the cotton is all gipnets.,--
No more shall his oldz,debts fret him
When the winter cold sets in.
For he now is free from worry,
He can eat his corn and grain,
He can live on fowl and bacon,
He can use his supar cane.
And the West no longer feeds him
And the East can no longer say,
That the Southern farmer, bless him
Has to send away for hay.
And because of this new freedom
From the pressing needs of life,
Cotton, when bit is gathered
Will be worth big high price.
So, let US up and praise the weevli,
So let US up and sing its fame,
For the farmer is the free man,
And he soon will win the game.

What the Telephone Has Done.
There are now around 100000

L
telephones in use in this country, the
increase for the past year having
been $4,000. 1t does not seem many
years ago when it was sign of
wealth and luxury for a man to have
a telephone in his home. Many of
the newspaper fellows can remem-
Der the vast exercise in leg muscle
that took place during that period,
when you had to walk all over a city
to collect the news about a church
social.
While the widespread use of the
telephone promotes a good deal of
idle gossip, yet it makes it infinitely
easier to get business done, and to
organize community movements.
Formerly, if you wanted to arouse
interest in any public cause, you had
to tramp around from store to store
and house to house. The effort was
so great that most people shrank
back appalled,, and community move
ments languished. The marvellous de-
velopments of civic progress during
the past 10 years is due about as
much to the telephone as any one
thing. 1t has become 10 times easier
through this means to secure the CO.
operation of a mass of people.-Au-
gusta Herald.
