GERMAN WARSHIPS I OFF ENGLISH COAST DARING RAID FROM KEIL ON EAST SIDE WORRIES ENGLAND. TURKEY SEVERED RELATIONS Germans Preparing Last Week for Another Attempt to Break Through the Lines of English and French. While there were no really startling developments last week in the great rr< - . *?? i-juiuprun war situation, satill tliere , wore many minor matters which help to awaken interest in the other parts l of the world as soon as they became known. Turkey broke off diplomatic relations with Groat Britain, France, Rus- , , ' ? sia and Servia. Her diplomatic rep- i ] resentatives in the capitals of these, . countries, acting on orders from the; Forte, demanded and received their I i passports. Some already had left. ] ] while the others departed later. Although no statement to this effect i had been given out. it is understood i 1 Turkey's apology for the actions of! her fleet in bombarding Russian Black , ^ Sea ports and Russian ships was un- | < acceptable to the Triple Entente Row-: \ ers, in that Turkey was not prepared j to accede to a demand that Germany! ] officers in her service be dismissed and c the ships purchased from Germany 1 dismantled. !1 Warlike Action. ! c The powers which the Ottoman Gov c a x 1 1 - - 1 * fruint'iu uius (icnod were taKing war- ( like action against Turkey. The Brit- : ish destroyed Fort Akabah, in Arabia, j A the Russians invaded Asia Minor and j an Anglo-French fleet is bombarding 1 t the forts of the Dardanelles. | 1 Now that Tukey has aligned her- < self among the nations at war, spcculntion is rife as to what the other! Balkan Powers will do. Greece is said ! 'to be preparing to take sides with the I * allies, while Bulgaria has given assuv- i ances of her neutrality. Bulgaiia, however, is mobalizing, for, as a Bulgarian diplomat said: "with Turkey in the arena of the war Bulgaria must ? be prepared for any eventualities." j 1 On the English Coast. Next to the Turkish situation the ap 1 I pearance of German warships off the < English coast caused most of the dis- ; cussion in England. There is : dixpo- j sition among naval men to believe 1 that no seriou raid was intended, but > that the Germans hoped to induce 1 British warships to foh"V<* them and ' by laying mines as they retired, to ] catch some of the bigger ships, as l they did the submarne D-5.i i The fact that the Germans did lay mines seems to indicate to the naval 1 J experts that the shi'>s engaged in j this work kere c 1:1 ones. Those ex- < perts agree that Germany would not I i take such risks with new vessels. As! ' if to prove their comer.tic.n the ex-j J perts say that the fi-ing at the British j ( crmser naicyon, wnicj| lcsu.itMi in i | slight damage to that vessel, showed i 1 that the Germans were, not armed! with modern guns. No Great Change. i \ Official reports of the fighting on 1 land as issued last Thursday recorded I 1 only advances at various points and! repulses of attacks at others. There I ] was in fact no great change on the situation, according to these reports. It is definitely announced that the Germans gave up their positions along the Yser, having been driven j 1 out there by the flooded country and j the gunfire of the allied troops and ] warships. The Germans, however, kept up their attack or. the allies' lines ' i around Ypres, where the British troops were fi g h t i ng. Al- , though there was evidence that the new main effort of Emperor William's forces to break through at this point had not really commenced, the Germans continued to bring up reinforcements and, under the eyes of the Emperor, preparing to make another big attempt to get through to the coast. Military men said that the allies nave just as.gpou means ior onngmg up reinforcements to. their lines as the Germans, and express confidence that a new attack will prove as fruitless as previous ones.

But twilight sleep is nothing new In this part of this country. We know of some towns that are in a chronic state of twilight slumber and they will never "come to." Some of our own citizens, mentioning no names, go about from day to day in a never-ending twilight slumber. And looking over our list of delinquent subscribers makes us rise to inquire what the doctors use to bring their twilight sleepers out of the trance ? Send us the formular, for there are a few subjects on that list whom wo wnulrl lilfn OUMilrnn Did we call them twilight sleepers? Suffering cats! The deepest, blackest, midnight could not begin to equal the darkness and depth of their slumbers. NOTICE OF SALE. Under and by virtue of the decree ind judgment of the court made by His Honor, J. W.

Peaslee, thoughtfully, "you run across a genuine consid'rate man, one that Just naturally thinks of kindly things." "Huh!" grunted Mr. Hyne. "I guose they ain't very plenty." , i\o, agreed Caleb readily, "they ain't, much as they're needed. Hut 1 this town of Dilmouth used to have one?he died, I guess, before you i moved over here. I've been thinkin' 1 of him more'n once today. Mebbe it's because this is the sort of day he used to like?kind of warm and pleasant, like a good deed done kindly. Wilbur Aiken was his name. You don't remember him. do you?" "I've heard of him," Mr. Hyne ad | mitted, guardedly. "Wasn't he kind of | easy-goin', and didn't folks use to lm; pose on him?" ; "Some did," acknowledged Mr . ; Peaslee. "There's folks that'll impose \ on their own mothers. But sometimes ] he helped 'em do the imposin'. Take 1 the time whon that Frenchman's fam i I . j ily had scarlet fever, and he couldn't * ; work out, 'count of the board of health. They didn't have a nam,^ I ^ able thing to eat in the house. , and he went to skirmishin' round I.! nights to see what he could find layin'j \ ! round loose. He came to Wilbur j ; Aiken's house, and got the outside 5 j cellar door open, but it squeuked so I i loud it scared him away?M'raid he'd j wake up the folks in the house, you ; know. What would you have done if \ you'd known it, same as Wilbur knew V it9" I 1 "Took a shotgun to him," grunted 4 Mr. Hyne, promptly. | 5 "Wilbur didn't." said Mr. Feaslec,|?i placidly. "Ho took some goose ile, and L greased the hinges so thcv didn't suueak a mite, and then he ret out a j ham. and some potatoes, and a sack: . of flour, and a round of pork, right J handy on a bench near the door, and ; in the moruin' they were gone." ? "Of course," commented Mr. Hyne. ; pessimistically, "More fool ho for ' J doin' it." "Oh, well." observed Caleb, cheer-; ( fully, "he didn't rcely lose 'em out- ( right, for tho next havin' the French-1 ( man came and worked for him, and ( j wouldn't take any pay for two days he ( i worked, so I guess Wilbur didn't lose ( by it. and be saved hurt in' the man's ( i feelin's. That was his way. t I "And the result was," went on Caleb, , i warmly, "that there wasn't a man in , | town that didn't like him, nor one sin- , gle child that didn't think the world < and all of Wilbur Aiken. Even the ? brute beasts seemed to take to him ' more'n they did to most of us. I know ' his cows did better, gave more milk than any others in town, and his | * horses were always as fat and as1 j j slick as otters. The last word that < he ever spoke to me was about kind- j j ness to horses. i j "You know what the hill road is, { j goin' to the buryin' ground, in the { spring of the year?mud clear to tho J ! hubs, and no more footin' for a horse ! than thor would bo on a quakin' bog? i j Well, a few days before Wilbur passed away I went up there to see him. He i I was layin in the bed in the spare i room, and he looked so worn-out and ' thin that when I went in I couldn't speak a word. He reached out and I took my hand and held it while he talked to me?just a whisper was all he could manage. " 'Don't look so sorry, Caleb,' he , 1 whispered. 'You've no need to feel any worse about it than T do, and 1 ' don't feel bad at all,' and then he had ! to stop for breath. " 'I just want to hang on till the: middle of May,' he says, after he got 1 his breath again?'till it gets settled travelin' and the mud dries up some. I hate to think of the horses havin' to haul me up that hill in mud-time.'M? Youth's Companion. Hard to Miss. "T oversaw and overheard this delightful little thing in an alley run- ' ning north from Payne avenue yesterday." says a more or less cryptic ; correspondent of the Cleveland Pl&in j ; Dealer. "Two boys were fighting. One was a very fat boy and the other ' , was very skinny. The thin one had a backer, however, who seemed to do very wiHe 10 an me lecnnicamies of the manly art of self-defense. " 'Hit him in the solar plexus, Kid/ shouted the second. 'Hit him in the ; solar plexus, an' you'll put th' big j tub out!' " 'Where's his solar plexus atr panted the thin one. " Aw, hit him anywhere?you can't < I miss it!' answered the backer." i i In the Same Boat. As the taxi skidde.d from side to side with increasing speed the occu' pant was becoming dreadfully ner; vous.
