THE RACE OE LIFE. A Talk With the Boys. ( Progressive Farmer. ) (The talk this week is hy Hon. T. lt. Marshall, Vice President of the United States. He ls a native of In diana, and served as Governor of In diana before becoming Vice President of the United States.) Every man who has knowledge of conditions is greatly rejoiced to ob serve a tendency toward a return to the farm. Tho farmer is nature's nobleman and society's benefactor. He alone creates; the rest of us transmute or destroy. Boys leave tho farm because of the mistaken Idea of what constitutes real success in life. Abo Martin, our In dianapolis humorist, has said that they leave the farm because lt is In convenient to plow in a dress suit. I am not opposed to the dress suit. 1 like it, but it is not necessary in or der to be either a gentleman or a success. To my mind there is more provincialism in polite society than among farmers. Everything is pro vincial which is strange and unusual. lt takes the city-bred man longer to fall into the environment of the farm than it does tho farmer to fall into the environment of the city. If th? 'boys of the farm will only realize that success ls not to be counted in what we have, but what we are and what wo may do, more of them will be content to remain. I do not know why the ancient custom of toasting the cook has 'been abol ished. I hope to see lt restored and with H will come the idea that a gen tleman is a gentleman anywhere and success is success only when it adds to the sum of human happiness. Sincerely. Thos. R. Marshall.

Now York, April 29.-Following ?ilils indeterminate sentence to the pen itentiary for bigamy by Judge Rosal sky, in General Sessions yesterday, Max Lynar, better known ?is "Count" Max Lynar Loudon, confessed to As sistant District Attorney Minion that up to last June ho had been Involved in a daring plot hatched in the Uni ted States to invade Canada with lf)0,000 former German soldiers now in this country. .Mo insisted that n $16,000,000 fund had been raised among wealthy German-Americans to finance the ex pedition, and that these reservists were even now organized and prepar ed to take up arms against the United States in case of trouble with Ger many. Whether his story is true or not, for over six months Federal agents .have been trying >to put Lynar MI jail. Mis statements yesterday were the result of an interview which he had with Mr. Minion a few days ago. On only ono point was he unwilling to speak. That was to give thc names of those who hud first approached him in the matter, mid of those who were to be his associates lu the expe dition. Plans for Invasion. Lynar declared that because of bis experience In both the American and German armies he was asked io be come chief of staff of the expedition. One section of the expedition, he said, was to start from Silver Creek, N. Y., with the Welland Canal and Windmill Point as its objectives. An other was to start from Wilson, N. Y., for Port Hope, and n third from Watertown with Kingston, Ont., as Its destination. Another was to start from ii point near Detroit, and ano ther was to cross the St. Lawrence ?it Cornwall to 'inarch on Ottowa. "The expedition," said Lynar, "was to he made up almost entirely of men who still retain their German citizen ship, although there wore a fow Ger nvan-Amerieans included. I was first approached tn the fall of 19 14, and as I was ready to do almost anything to help the country which has my sym pathies, I consented to head the expe dition. "Secret meetings were held in many of the Eastern, cities, and ar rangements we ie made for raising four divisions of soldiers. One was to come from New York city and Connecticut, another from Pittsburgh and Buffalo, the third from Philadel phia and the fourth from Detroit and Milwaukee. Plans were developed to make the attack this spring. "Tho divisions were to include a regiment of artillery and one of sharpshooters. The matters of arms did not bother us, for any one who bas the money can buy guns and mu nitions in this country. Once on the shores of Lake Erie, the St. Lawrence and Lake Ontario, tho .men were to be t uk ell to lonely points, where lt would he possible to load them into boats. Arms and- Uniforms on Doats. Germany, you know, has topo graphical moips of every country with willoh there ls a possibility of her having war. These maps were to be our guides. Ten days before the ex pedition 'was to start a message was to bo sent to every person who had been selected as a member to proceed to his appointed rendezvous. They were to march to the boats on the pretext that they were going on a picnic. These picnics were to be far enough apart not to arouse suspicion. "Once on the water, arms and uni forms would be found walting. We had accurate knowledge of the forces at the disposal of the Canadian gov ernment, and there is no doubt that such an expedition, once started, would have been successful." "In some way-I believe it was through a woman to whom 1 had talked-the British embassy got wind of what was going on, and one day a Burns detective met nie and took me to the Blltmore Hotel. There I met a military attache of the embassy, who offered mo $20.oot) for my plans." Lynar'then said he ceased to he ntl active member of the plotters and became an informer, saying that through his friendship for United States army officers he became con vinced that such a step would be un justified. He said he turned an out line of the plans over to L. M. Garri son, then Secretary of War, last June. He continued, ho declared, to associ ate with the plotters until last No vember, when they became suspicious and eliminated him from their meet ings. "1 believe," ?he said, "that In case Of war with Germany these same men are prepared lo take up arms for Ger many. I myself could not do such a thing, for I consider myself an Amer ican. And 1 believe that 9 0 per cent ol' the German-Americans feel Hie same as 1 do about it."

NOVEMBER TO SEE END OF WAR. SU'ong Undercut rent Noted In Herl in, Do Not Want Another Winter. Ilerlin, May l -Despite an un questioned strong undercurrent of peace talk nero, officials resent the in timation carried in a recent Washing ton dispatch thal Chancellor Beth mann-Hollweg had asked Ambassa dor Gerard to cancel his vacation plans and return to America to trans mit peace offers from Germany.

Could End War In Thirty Miuutes? Charlotte, X. C..

Tapp, of Kansas (Mty, Mo., who spent yesterday in Charlotte. "What is true of Individ uals is true likewise of nations. The great war and the spirit ol' unrest and strife that is so widely prevalent throughout the -world are but the physical results of the universal thought of selfishness, greed, vanity and hatred In the minds of the race in this age in which we live and tho seat of this thought ls within sex nature.

Mr. Sullivan was arrested by the military authorities of Dublin on April 30. Mrs. Sullivan, who was with her husband, wrote on May 1 a letter which has just boen received by Walter Hines Page, the American ambassador, who addressed a note to Sir Edward Groy, the foreign secre tary, asking full I"formation ns to whether Mr. Sullivan was still in custody, the nature or the charges ami how soon he would 'be tried. lt is understood hero that Mr. Sul livan has ueen in Ireland for a con siderable time, having arrived there shortly after the severance of his connection with tho State Depart ment. His Ministerial Oftreer. Washington, flay 4.-.las. M. Sul livan's career as American minister to Hie Dominican Republic was brief and sensational and ended In his res ignation under charges which a com mission appointed by the State De partment, headed by Senator Phelan, investigated and round he had been guilty of indiscretions which unfitted him for his place. The charges con cerned Sullivan's alleged participa tion in contracts on tho island, but no evidence was found that ho had profited, Sullivan had been a lawyer for .lack Rose, one of the gamblers in the Rosenthal murder case. His ap pointment generally was credited to former Secretary Bryan, who in look ing for a place for bim wrote Receiv er General Vick, in the Dominican Republic, asking "what positions you have at your disposal with which to reward deserving Democrats." Secretary Tumulty disclaimed re sponsibility for Sullivan's appoint ment and told the Investigating com mittee he acted simply as the medium of transmitting Sullivan's endorse ments. Sullivan was exonerated once by Secretary Bryan, but the charges against him would not down and a second investigation resulted in his resignation. Former Governor Ford, of New Jersey, who conducted the first investigation, declared Sullivan was "a big-hearted, good-natured, honest Irishman."
