London. Sept. 3.?The battle to decide whether history will repeat itself in a second siege of Paris is still in progress, according to latest Dfficial announcement. Future miiitary historians will write volumes of the details of this battle, but all the British public knows officially concerning the titanic struggle?the moat momentous British soldiers have fooght" since Waterloo?is contained in one sentence of an official report issued last sight by the press bureau: "Continuous fighting has been in progress along almost the whole line >f battle." To this the French official commulication adds the fact that the allied torces have fallen back toward the southwest to avoid an action under jnfavorable conditions. How far and to what line the allies have gone is inknown. Sanity and Honesty. Some called it impossible idealism. Others sneered at it as schoolmaster deas of government. Cowardice and ack of patriotism, shrieked the Hearst yellows. Sanity most of us call it now?sanity and honesty. Lack of balance, lack of calm ludgment, lack of honesty?those :hings have plunged Europe nto war. The possession of those chings by President Wilson kept this lation out of war. Five letters spell Woodrow Wilson's ideas of dealing with indiviluals, and those same letters spell ;he word upon which is based his for;ign policy. Those five letters are -i-g-h-t. Chicanery and Machiavellian diplomacy, trickiness, cunning attempts to jet ahead of others, desire for what jelongs not to them and the exercise of all the tricks in the Metterlich system of diplomatic dealing to ittain that desire have characterized he dealings of European nations vith each other. Ethically, diplonats in Europe are horse traders. The new American principle is dif,'erent. It is based upon the theory hat intercourse between nations is uled by the same ideas of right and is is intercourse between individuals. President Wilson did what was right. 3e gave every nation its due. and demanded nothing but what was our lue. He applied the ordinary canons o national and foreign relations.

Anderson, Sept. 6.?A negro named White was burned to death at 4 o'clock this morning when the guard house at Wiliiamston was destroyed by fire. White waa from Greenville county amd was arrested late yesterday, charged with stealing a pair of overalls. When the fire waa discovered a policeman rushed in the guard house, which is divided into four cells, and tried to push White toward the door. White was standing near the rear window and was butting his head aeainst the iron bar across the window, he resisted the officer's efforts, probably being stunned, and perished. The fire is thought to have originated on the inside of the guard house. Supposition is that White fired the building to burn his way to safety. He was the only prisoner. 1 Just as the citizens of Williamston were returning to their homes at 6 o'clock after the guard house was burned the barn and crib belonging to State Senator George W. Sullivan was found to be on fire. The building, with all contents, except the live stock, was totally destroyed. Senator Sullivan had stored in the barn the largest crop of oats he has ever made besides a Iage quantity of corn and farm implements and farm machinery. His loss is more than $1,000. The origin of the fire is unknown. American Embassy Remains at Paris. The diplomatic corps, excepting the embassy of the United States, accompanies the government to Bordeaux. Ambassador Herrick's decision to remain in Paris has been warmly commended by the minister of foreign affairs because the representative of the most powerful neutral government will be able, should the occasion arise, to serve the French as well as his own people. Mr. Herrick thinks he can better look after the several thousand Americans here if he remains in Paris. These are principally permanent residents in business or persons of moderate means unable to leave conveniently. Mr. Herrick asked Washington on Friday last if he might stay and Secretary Bryan gave his consent. J. W. Garrett, minister of Argentina, Louis A. Sussdorff. Jr., of New York, third secretary of the embassy. Captain Parker, military attache, have gone with the French government to Bordeaux. The American embassy is now j charged with British, Russian. Japa-j nese, Servian, German aand Austrian j affairs in Paris. Mrs. Herrick, who has been ill but is now recovering will also remain here. William G. Sharp, the newly appointed American ambassador, and Robert Bacon, former ambassador, arrived today. It is understood Mr. Sharp will not take charge of the embassy at once but with Mr Bacon will assist Mr. Herrick. Youth.

Q" French and German sanitation ha3 m been brought into strong contrast by the simultaneous debates in the Gert0 man reichstag and French chamber as to the high sick rates in the reet spective armies. The French milijn | tary authorities show that the proie portionate amount of sickness is the lk same as for many years, though the :t- death rate per 1,000 sick is higher id than any year since 1908. The Gere man soldiers have about half the death and sickness of the French, o rt H vof tho lawiolofAiKj in/?Anao^ j aio luvcuocu e' that there should be even that much. The awful prevalence of typhoid at fever in France is accepted there as a a matter of course, but it would cause ** a near-revolution in Germany. It a seems that public opinion, which is the real basis of sanitation, is better informed in Germany than in France. s The Swiss side of the Lake Geneva, ut we are told, is a model of sanitation, re but the French side is disgraceful.

Motor cars continue to be the steadiest agency of homicide, t0 but drowning has made a strong s showing lately, as it usually does er when summer weather attracts a" pleasure parties to the water. Accidents in mines, destroying life by wholesale, are no novelty, sad to say, but the recent proceeding by which t0 nine Austrians lost their lives in a er too-real sham battle between air veer hides is painfully modern. A man was killed by lions in Chicago which et is unusual in Chicago. lW The means of killing people by 1S machinery was never so prevalent as now and never so active.
