' The official German statement an- nounces that the complete garrison consisted of 85,000 men and six gen- erals. "Of these more than 20,000 were captured in the final battle alone," continues the statement. This raises the question as to whether the {rest of the garrison succeeded in es- "caping and joining the main Russian forces, which are believed to be still intact and retreating in good order. Over 700 guns were captured. The spoils haste not yet been esti- mated, but they probably are large, as it had been hoped by the Russians, that the earthworks around the forti- fied camp would enable it to hold out much longer than it has done. It is now expected by the military obser- vers that the other Russian fortresses, such as Brest-Litdvsk, Grodno and Osiitiwetz, either will be captured or .given up. ', T V After the dal1 of Kovno Field Mar- ghal von Hindenburg's army com- menced again an offensive along the Whale ffont from the Gulf of Riga to Kovno, with the object of taking Riga and, the whole "Warsaw-Petrograd railway from Vilma northward. A despatch from London says: The garrison of the fortress of Novo Georgievsk which was left behind by Grand Duke Nicholas when he com- menced the evacuation of Poland to delay the advance of German invad.. ers, after accomplishing its task for just a fortnight, has succumbed to the heavy siege artillery of the Ger- mans, which throughout the war has made every fort attacked by it un- tenable. There used to be a legend that the hardships of campaigning strength- ened the constitutions of those who escaped the missiles of the enemy. Professor Landouzy, dean of the Paris Faculty of Medicine, has made recently an important pronouncement on the subject. According to the London Hospital, Landouzy forecasts that the war will contribute at least 20,000 tuberculosis patients to France alone. The explanation he gives is simple and convincing: The terrible Igrfatigue which the soldiers on the fus "ing line must endure leaves its per- manent marks. The resistance of many of the soldiers is reduced. Then a large number of men who once were tuberculous but who have been "'cured" have enlisted. For them a return of the disease is extremely probable, FQRERESS RAZEE) EN TW) WEEKS Russian Stronghold on the Vistula- Narew Rivers Has Been Captured.

Landouzy makes a plea for them. They are war invalids, he de.. clares, as much as are the wounded. They are entitled to the same treat- ment and to the same assistance from the nation. Furthermore, the nation must protect itself from the spread of infection.

Sembat asks: "How will it be possible to, pay the debts contracted or the interest on the loans and at the same time keep up as costly arm- ies and fleets as in the past without renouncing expenditures for social reforms which impose themselves to- day upon all civilized peoples?" It will not be possible; and armies and fleets are not likely to be abandoned. The next generation will havemo sur- plus wealth to carry out the plans, which a year ago seemed realizable, for social hygiene, for scientific re- search and for the bringing of an ap- portunity for happiness into the life of every human being. Mankind is burning civilization at both ends and in the middle. We are destroying the monuments of the past which embalm an unrepeatable act in the human drama, such as the Cathedral of of Rheims or the Library of Louvain; we are slaying the beings of thé present. We know 'that it is criminal to live at _the 9xpense of the past; Like the commonplace news of the death of ten thousand men, figures showing the enormous destruction of wealth which each day of war entails have ceased to hold the interest of the jaded world. Nevertheless, the statement of Marcel Sembat, French Minister of Public Works, that the war costs France $10,000 a minute is likely to raise the eyebrows, for a moment, of all those who realize that their children will have to pay the bill. Ten thousand dollars a minute equals $14,400,000 a day, and $5,- 256,000,000 a year. Premier Asquith, in opening the meeting to secure pop- ular support for the $5,000,000,000 English loan, said that the British ex- penditures were about $15,000,000 a day.

There is the great- l est optimism in official quarters and prophecies are freely made that a ‘few weeks will see the close of the l allies' most difficult tasks in the Near l East. The Turks, too, expect the j Anglo-French forces to be successful, I if news reaching Sofia from Constan- ', tinople is reliable. A despatch from Rome says: Des- patches from Salonika received by the Giornale d'Italia and the Tribuna declare that the Turkish authorities in addition to prohibiting the departure of Italians from Smyrna have levied a heavy war tax which foreigners never before have been required to pay, and which many Italians in Smyrna, be- ing almost destitute, are quite unable to pay. TURKS LEVY WAR TAX ON ALL FOREIGNERS In fact, it is felt here now that, so far as the Dardanelles are concerned, it is a matter of indifference to the allies whether the Balkan States lend a hand. Their assistance is wanted, however, against Austria and also to shorten Turkish resistance when the straits are opened. For these reasons negotiations with the Near Eastern capitals are being watched with in- terest. "EURKS AWE? “BEE iiii)ljl) B NEAR Early Victory for Allied Forces in the Dardanelles is Assured. This was the first word from an official German source concerning the Arabic, on which two Americans per- ished. Its receipt was followed by an evident relaxation of the tension which had been growing here as days passed with no indication of a desire on Germany's part to disclaim an in- tention of committing an act "de- liberately unfriendly" toward the United States. No attempt was made either at the State Department or the White House to interpret the Am- bassador's communication. Officials merely. said that of course the Ameri- can Government would await the Ger- man explanation of the action of the submarine commander in sinking the liner. A despatch from Washington says'. Count von Bernstorff, the German Ambassador, communicated to the State Department instructions from his Government expressing regret and sympathy if Americans lost their lives in the sinking of the liner Arabic and asking that the United States delay taking a definite stand in regard to the affair until Germany "could be heard from.

Zarephath-On the sea-coast, about eight miles south of Sidon.

For with a drought in the land, a widow would not have more than enough for herself and family. 11. Was going to fetch it - Her hospitality, even with starvation fac- ing her, was as ready as her faith, a moment later, was responsive. 10. Gathering sticks-The poverty of the widow is indicated by the fact she was obliged to pick up every stray bit of wood for fuel. 4. I have commanded the ravens to feed thee-These birds would make their nests in the coves of the rav- ines. The word ravens in Hebrew can be made to mean "merchants" or "Arabians." As the "ravens" were "unclean" birds, the Jews have favor- ed the reading "merchants" or "Ara- bians" (that is, travelling caravans) who gave Elijah to eat as they passed by. Brook Cherith - Not elsewhere mentioned. It was not a brook in the ordinary sense, but a ravine, down through which the torrent rains of winter were rushed to the Jordan. It was dry except at the place where Elijah was to hide. As it was long and narrow and deep, it would make a good hiding place. Tradition lo- cates Cherith in the neighborhood of Jericho, but "before the Jordan," is now thought to mean "eastward," hence the brook is to be thought of as one of numerous water courses flowir1g into the Jordan from the east. Verse 1. The Tishbite--A native of Tishbe in Gilead on the east side of the Jordan River. The place has not been definitely identified. Eliiah's ap- pearances are always sudden, and he does not remain long. His coming to Ahab is abrupt and his prophecy without any .warni-ng whatsoever. Other prophets appeared in the same Way: for example, Ahijah (1 Kings 11. 29); Shemaia (2 Chron. 11. 2); Azariuk (2 Chrbh. 15. 1). TVhoartr evil is rife the word of the Lord is sure to come with all the force of the unexpected. 3. Hide thyself---His life would be in danger because of the anger of Ahab and Jezebel his wife.

The World says editorially: "Is the destruction of the Arabic Germany's official reply to the American note?" "The time has come now to act. To talk further is to encourage, not avoid, murder. It is to compound with infamy and continue relations with savagery. It is to write our- selves down willing victims, as con- senting to the continued slaughter of Americans. In the crime of the Ara- bic the last thin disguise has slipped from the German beast, and we see the fact as it is-but we see it un- afraid." "It is time to have done with a na- tion which has repudiated every scrap of international law. It is time to have done with a State which has adopted a policy which is alike a chal- lenge to humanity and a negation of all that civilization means. If the would-be murderer misses, if his bul- let goes astray, does society less cer- tainly incarcerate him? It is not the fault of the German commander that every American on the Arabic was not drowned. All that the assassin could do was done. All that the but- cher could do to make the massacre complete was done. If chance spared Americans, it was chance alone. "Since this is the case, only one road remains open to Mr. Wilson; there is only one. course that he can follow with dignity and with honor.

Then the clergyman changed the sub- ject. He spoke of literature and the drama and dwelt upon the compelling character that genius had put into books and upon the stage. He men- tioned great names in history. The group was a well-read body of men, and the discussion became general up to the inevitable lull, when the clergy- man began to ask questions.

Similar reports were re. iceived from other parts of the city, , When they were swept into the wa- ter, Mr. Bruguiere said, he swam for 20 minutes with his mother. Then his head was struck by a piece of wreckage and he was forced momen- tarily to release his hold on hisrmo- ther. When he came again to the surface Mrs. Bruguiere had disappeared. Half an hour later the son was dragged aboard one of the ship's small boats. Sunflowers are sometimes used in the manufacture of cigars. A statement made by Louis Bru- guire, a passenger on the Arabic, in., dicates there is no doubt that his mother, Mrs. Josephine L. Bruguire, an American, was drowned. Mr. Bru- guiere said his mother disappeared after being in the water for about 20 minutes. _ Captain Finch and the other officers of the Arabic assert the submarine gave them no warning. They declare the torpedo was fired as they were going to the rescue of the steamer Dunsley, which had just been torpe- doed, presumably by the same sub- marine. Mr. Bruguiere said he and his mo- ther were the last to leave the prome- nade deck. They reached this deck after the last boat had left the ship. This boat was too far away to be reached by his mother. Most of the missing members of the crew belonged to the engineers' staff. They remained at their posts and Went down with the ‘ship. The two Americans who went down with the ship were Mrs. Josephine Bruguiere, of New York, and Edmund T. Woods. The former was thrown into the water and was kept afloat for some time by her son Louis, who Was forced to relinquish his hold when he was struck by a piece of wreckage. Nothing was seen of Woods after the steamer was struck. Amiable and Reverent.'

He is moderate, temperate and wise-in short, whatever the pheno- menon may turn out in the end, he seems at present to be a man of ex- cellent beauty and divine perfection." And so, my dear readers, imour day and age what we need (as some one has said) is not more men, but more man.
