'Arma virumque cano."
Sang Virgil long ago;
And still in Washington,
In Nineteen twenty.one.
The song is sung again
By every race of men.
Listen to Hardng and Hughes.
To Brands and Bafours views.
TO chants from the japanese
The cries from aggrleved Chinese.
10 Italian melodies.
But note the new refrain
Too MANY heroes slain.
Too much of cruel war
Oh, sing of arms no more.
But think alone of men.
Let us be brothers again;
Let warships no longer be built
Purge us, O Cod of the guilt
That fostered wars waste and dearth.
And give to our age the birth
OF peace and goodwill on the earth"

at Murder TriaI-Case to
jury Today.

Cleveland, o., July 14.-Mrs. Eva
Catherine Kaber went into a hysteri-
cal faint while her brother, Charles
Brickel, was testifying in her behalf
in the trial for the murder of her hus-
band. She screamed and fell TO the
floor. She was carried out by bailiffs.
Mrs. Eva Catherine Kaber was
ready to take the witness stand in
her own behalf this morning, accord
ing to her counsel, in an effort to null
lily the states charge that she planned
the murder of her husband, Daniel F.
Kaber
Her testimony and that of alieniStS
as to her mental condition was expect
ed to complete the defenSe's case.
Mrs. Kaber's counsel would not indi-
cate how many alienists would be
called to testify. There was said to
be a possibility that arguments would
be commenced late in the day, and
that the case may be given to the jury
today.
Mrs. Kaber is expected TO testify
concerning her husbands alleged
nasty habits" and admit that she
hired persons to beat up" Mr.. Kaber
in the hope that it would cure him
| of those alleged habits. Neither the
| state nor defense has yet introduced
testimony bearing upon this subject
| other than assertions by some of the
| states witnesses that Mrs. Kaber had
| said she wanted her husband beaten
up because of them.
