WILL MADE IN 1903
PREDICTED BIG WAR

Paris, March 5.-How an Alsatian
faithful to France, predicted the war
between Germany and France in 1903
is revealed in a clause of his will just
made public.
After the war Of 1870 in which he
participated as a soldier of France,
NJ. Metzger left Strassbourg and came
to live at Saint German, near Paris.
He died there in 1903 and in his will
he left all his property to the town
of Saint German on condition that
they fulfill one wish he expressed in
his will. This was to the effect that
new war between the two neigh
boring countries would shortly take
place and that he wanted to recon-
pense the valor of Frances poilus
whom he felt sure would liberate
his native homeland" Accordingly
he requested the town of Saint Ger
main to pick out the five most valor-
Gus soldiers of France and grant them
an income OF 500 francs per year,
for which he had made provision in
his will.
But the task of finding these five
soldiers is not an easy one and the
municipality of Saint GERMAN first
1y decided to consult the minister of
war and ask him to pick out five sol
diers (they were to be privates OF
corporals) who had received all me-
dals, including the Legion of Honor,
during the war for conspicuous brav-
cry. The answer came back and with
1t the names of some 1000 soldiers
rightfully entitled to NJ. Metzger's
pension. When the five are chosen
President Millerand will hand them
the 500 francs as the first yearly
pension and give them the necessary
documents that they might collect a
like amount every year.

inaccessible portions of the park.
Open falls in the past, however, have
not caused the elk to abandon their
usual customs or habits.
Whether the actual numbers now
comprising the Yellowstone band
have been greatly lowered during the
past year or not, say officials of the
United States Department of Agri-
culture, it is at least true that the
shrinkage of the Yellowstone herd
during the past five years has been
alarming. In 1914, the Yellowstone
herd was estimated at about $4,000.
In 1917, 1880 were counted out and
If the figures for the present year,
estimated by those in close touch
with the situation, are true, there re-
mains much less than half this num-
Der. In 1919, 5000 head were killed
in the Yellowstone band, the supervi-
sor of the Absaroka National Forest
reports.
No herd of wild animals can sustain
an annual shrinkage in numbers,
which the Yellowstone band has. for
any length Of time and not face COM
plete determination within a few
years.

REFLECT LODGE
AS FLOOR LEADER

Washington. March g.. Senator
Lodge, OF Massachusetts, floor leader
and other Republican officers of ne

today without opposition.
Besides re-electing Senator Lodge
as floor leader, the Senate Republic
cans again chose Senator Cummins of
Iowa, for President pro tempore of
the Senate, and Senator Curtis, of
Kansas, for vice chairman or assist
ant leader.
Committee assignments were left
to the usual committee on committees
which Senator Lodge was authorized
to appoint, together with the steer
ing committee.
In number and personnel all Sen
ate committees are to be reduced UNI
der new Senate rules ordered for this
session. Preponderance of Republi-
cans in the Senate may cause the loss
of a few places, but the Democrats
with reduced representation, will suf-
fer the most. No changes in Senate
chairmanships are planned. There
is considerable rivalry for position on
the coveted Foreign Relations Com
mittee to fill the vacancy caused by
selection of former Senator Fall as
secretary of interior. Senators Kel-
logg, of Minnesota; Mccormick, OF

ITO the House, close to the heart
OF the nation, renewing its whole
membership by frequent elections,
representing directly the people, re-
flecting their common purpose, has
been granted a full measure of the
power Of legislation and exclusive au-
thority to originate taxation. To the
Senate, renewing its membership by
degrees, representing in part the SOW

only full measure of the power of
legislation, but if possible, far more
important functions. To it is in
trusted the duty of review, that to
negotiation there may be added rati-
ication and to appointment approval.
But its greatest function of all. too
little mentioned and too little under

ing or reviewing, is the preservation
of liberty. Not merely the rights
of the majority, they little need pro-
lection, but the rights of the minori-

enormous power is here conferred,
capable of much good or i'll, open it
may be to abuse, but necessary,
wholly and absolutely necessary, to
secure the required result

human imperfections, there is no

with its high tradition as great de-
Lucrative body, without passion and

firmed all ten nominations.

for Secretary of the Interior, was first
on the list to be confirmed. He was
given precedence because of his Sem
ate membership. The other appoint
, ments were taken up in turn.

nominations besides his Cabinet Of
ficers and in presenting those to the
sSnate said he desired to maintain

ministration and had therefore pre-
sented the nominations in persons

nations orally. reading the names one
by one from the list he held in his
hand. They were referred imme-
diately to committees which had been
polled in advance and as the names

Grafton of the treaty until the regular
session in April.

will take advantage Of the absence of
a riot statute in Oklahoma to deny
to it's negro citizens claims for more
than S4,O00,000, the declared equi-
valent of the property destroyed by
fire during the race riots or seized
by looters. i
Frank E. Duncan, city attorney, w.
D. Humphrey, former corporation
commissioner, and H. L. Browning,
corporation counsel for East St. Louis,
which recently met riot claims, have
joined in the framing of an opinion
to the reconstruction committee in
which the city is declared under no
obligation to pay the negroes losses
they sustained.
However, the negroes attorneys
intend to fight out the case in court.
Riot claims may be won if the negroes
can prove the city's culpability, which
should not be difficult thing in view
of the conviction of Police Chief John
A. Gustafson for failure to protect
life and property during the riot.
