Phoenixville, Pa., Sept. 16.—Secre- tary of State William J. Bryan, speak- ing in his most serious vein, took oc- casion to deny most emphatically that he is a montebank, a vaudevillian, or that he has made a travesty on diplo- macy as alleged editorially by many leading newspapers of the United States, as well as in England and on the continent. “The statements that I am neglect- ing my duties at Washington that I may continue this lecture tour are ab- solutely untrue. The statements that, the Mexican situation and the Japa- nese situation have reached acute | stages and require my constant pres- ence in Washington likewise are un- true.

Rich Ducal Estates In England With aj Curious Rental. It is not generally known that or the anniversary of Waterloo each year —June 18, 1815, was the original day— the Duke of Wellington is required to; present the sovereign with a new flag | bearing the French colors as an ac- knowledgment that his grace holds the manor of Strathfieldsaye at the will and pleasure of the king, that estate having been presented to the Iron Duke as a national gift for his success over Napoleon at Waterloo. The ceremony of the presentation of the flag is today much shorn of its ancient glory, for formerly the ruling duke used to bring the trophy himself on horseback and personally offered it to the monarch. Nowadays it is sent by deputy, however, and is then placed by some appointed equerry in the po- | sition assigned to it—namely, over the marble bust of the old Duke of Wel- lington that stands on its pedestal in the guardroom at Windsor castle. The flag which has rested there during the preceding year is then taken down and returned to the duke’s messenger. It is on the special condition of thus rendering this annual tribute of feudal service, as we may call it, that the reigning duke is allowed to retain the | splendid estate already mentioned. If he omits to send the banner on the | proper day he forfeits the right to the estates. The same principle applies to the beautiful domains of Blenheim held hasset all winter.

Chattanooga, Tenn., Sept. 16.—The Grand Army of the Republic is as- sembled at Chattanooga, receiving for the first time in its forty-seven years history the hospitality of the South. And the Northern veterans, with their | Southefn hosts as guides, are going ever again the scenes of the momen- tous conflict that occurred here just fifty years ago. Chattanooga is in gala attire for the | encampment. Survivors of the army | which caused the Confederacy to tot-! ter in the bloody battle of Chickamau-| ga, fought here fifty years ago, were | same cordiality | shown the Union Confederate veterans. The importance of the Chattanooga campaign has grown with the sober retrospect of history, and the triple conflict of Chickamauga, Lookout! Mountain and Missionary Ridge, i which 50,000 men were lost altogeth- er, is now regarded as second in im-' portance only to Gettysburg. It was on Sept. 19, 1863, that the armies of North and South, under) Rosecrans and Bragg, respectively, clashed on the banks of Chickamauga | creek, a few miles south of Chatta- nooga, from which city Bragg had been lured by clever maneuvers. Next morning, Sunday, the battle | was resumed while Chattanooga citi-| zens were on their way to church. ; Bragg ordered a _ general attack. Rosecrans left a gap in his right | wing and Longstreet immediately | drove five brigades through it, press- ing back the Union lines and catch-} ing Rosecrans, Crittenden, McCook and Sheridan in the crash. Rosecrans, deciding that all was lost, hurried to Chattanooga to pre-| pare for a retreat and left General | Thomas in command of the field. Charge After Charge. He seized Snodgrass hill and threw up defenses of logs and stones, then met charge after charge from the flower of the victorious Confederate army, hurling them back with deadiy effect to the bottom of the hill.

After a month General Grant came | and took.command, replacing Rose- crans. At the end of the second month, when it was starve, surrender through the Confederate lines. On Nov. 23 he ordered a charge and seized Orchard Knob, making that his headquarters. The next day he sent “Fighting Joe” Hooker on a forlorn hope to seize Lookout Moun- tain, commanding the city, with its strong Confederate battery. That afternoon and evening raged the fa- mous “Battle Above the Clouds,” while the watchers below waited in doubt and fear. Next morning the Stars and Stripes were ‘seen fiying from the mountain top. Then came the third move of this brilliant dash for freedom. Grant or- dered a charge against Missionary Ridge, which commanded the valley, and was strongly fortified by three parallel lines of rifle pits and sur- mounted by fifty guns. The order was merely to take the lower line of pits. The Union sol- diers, dashing across the valley in the face of a murderous fire, seized the first line of defense, then, ignor- ing orders, swarmed up the hill, tak- ing the second line, and the third line, seizing the guns at the top and driving the Confederates back in utter rout. SUNDAY COURT FOR CHICAGO Minor Offenders Need Not Spend the Day in Cells, Chicago, Sept. 16.—Chicago is to have a Sunday court with the judge on the bench at 6 a. m. each Sun- day to release Saturday night hang- overs and minor offenders who other- wise would be forced to spend Sun- day in cells. Judge John A. Mahoney announced this innovation. “The twin objects of the court,” said the judge, “will be to save worthy men the loss of their jobs for failing to appear at work on Monday morning and to prevent young men being held in cells all day and com- ing in contact with a crowd of real crooks.” | and the state department had no oth- ; taken last May.

Washington, Sept. 16—One hundred Americans, fugitives on the Mexican desert between Torreon and Saltillo, harrassed by bandit bands according to unconfirmed reports, were not men- tioned in the early official dispatches er informaticn of them. Officials here were inclined to be- lieve the Americans were in no grave danger. Agents of the constitutional- ist movement stoutly maintained the Americans were in no danger at all and would be protected by constitu tionalist forces against any roving marauding bands. Officials of the con. sular service pointed out that the Americans passed Parras on Sept. 11./ That town is in the hands of the constitutionalist troops, having been; ar agent recently took twelve days with a fast automobile to make the run between Torreon and Saltillo. The fugitives, hampered by women and children and move primitive means of transportation, are expected to require much longer. The refugees were from points along the Western coast of Mexico and they brought repetitions of stories of refu- gees who preceded them. Western Mexico is in a state of anarchy, they said. Rebel chiefs do not recognize each other and when they are not looting and committing murder they are fighting among themselves. Ameri- cans from the state of Durango as- serted conditions there are beyond description. They said the country is, overrun with bands of drunken peons who commit unspeakable crimes. The constitutionalists have been States looks to them for the protection | of the fugitives. i AMERICAN ENGINEER KILLED Refugees Tell of His Murder by Mexi- cans. San Francisco, Sept. 16—Word of the murder of Morris P. Root, Ameri- ean superintendent of the El Tigre mines at Tepic, Mex., was brought here by the steamer Peru, which had} ing engineer was intercepted by a few bandits as he was on his way to join employes of the company who were preparing to defend the mine prop- erty. He was disarmed and cut to pieces. Root was fifty years old and had been in Mexico about sixteen years. Max Lambert, another American engineer, who arrived on the Peru, was left for dead by bandits who at- tacked his home in the state of Tepic. Lambert’s wife and child escaped by crawling through a rear window and he remained to greet the bandits whose approach was noticed when they were a mile away. They frac- tured his skull and left him for dead. When they departed Mrs. Lambert re- turned and secured aid.

That Appears to Be the Patriotic Motto In Switzerland, A foreign resident in Switzerland was fined 10 francs because his little girl had plucked three buttercups growing on a piece of land on which she and some half dozen children had for years been accustomed to play. The land had recently changed hands, and its new owner had put up a notice forbidding the plucking of flowers. A passing gendarme had found the chil- dren fragante delicto and had forth- with instituted proceedings against the little foreigner while letting the na- tives go scot free. The child’s father appealed against the sentence and by dint of hard fight- ing. which entailed, of course, expense, forced the higher court to reduce the fine from 10 francs to 3—i. e., one franc for each buttercup. When I tried to learn the ways and wherefores of this case I was told by a Swiss that one-half of every fine levied goes to the gendarme who re- ports the offense for which it is levied, and also the Swiss gendarmes cannot fairly be expected to be quite as alert in taking proceedings against natives as against foreigners, Further, T was told by an American that in Switzerland all foreigners rank as Egyptians and that the one Scrip- tural injunction that is faithfully obey- ed there is that which ordains that Egyptians shall be spoiled. — From “The Latter Day Swiss” in Cornhill Magazine. 7m Proved Himself Competent. An English nobleman engaged a tall and powerful highlander to act as gamekeeper on his estate. Having been a considerable time at his post and not having caught any poachers, the noble- man suspected his gamekeeper of care- lessness. So one dark night he dis- guised himself and went out with a gun to poach on his own grounds. He had fired only one or two shots when he was suddenly pounced upon from behind and his gun wrenched away. Then kicks and blows were showered upon him until he fell down half in- sensible. The highlander then walked away quietly, and when the noble- man recovered sufficiently he crawled home and took to his bed for two weeks. He has now no doubts whether the man can perform his duty or not. Even Lambs May Turn. It appears that the lamb can turn as At Lam- peter a flock of sheep was being driven along, and the accompanying dog threw a little extra ardor into the job of hur- special attention to a lamb, where- upon, to the delight of the onlookers, the lamb turned on his assailant. The dog took to his heels, and the lamb rushed after him into a shop, and no one knows what would not have oc- curred to the collie had not the farmer arrived and interfered.—Cardiff West Notice of Mortgage Foreclosure Sale Whereas, default has been made in the payment of Twenty-one ($21) dole lars interest which became due and payable on the bth day of July, 1913, upon a certain mortgage duly made, executed and delivercd to W.
