The cold snap of tho last few days has called to the mind of some of the old residents the cold snap of '49, in which year after the corn was knee high it was killed by a freeze in April. The odor of decaying vegetable matter was so strong that it was almost impossible to go into the fields. However, the optimist, even at that time, was waranted in being cheerful, for the farmers replanted and made one of the best crops in the history of the county. They were blessed with a late fall.

Friendship has already contributed sixty dollars for denominational colleges. A large part of this sunt was subscribed by young men who do not hope to attend college. They are aware of the fact that only church colleges and the competition against the church can insure that the education of th" future will be Christian. Such liberality is not only to be commended because of the spirit of it, but be- | cause of the breadth of mind manifested by young men who deny themselves a little "spending money" as a contribution to the welfare of the whole State. It is good to have young men who early learn to see their own neighborhood as a part of | a big commonwealth and who have some apreciable conception of the relation of parts to the whole. st VCt iw.vt I *' " . ; i at H p. m.

A careful estimate of the cost <ff the war down to tlio beginning of the spring ' campaign Is $00,000,000,000. In other words, almost exactly one | third of the Fotal wealth of the United i . States, by far the richest country iu ^ I the world, has been swallowed In the , . | voracious maw of the war monster. . j As a inntter of fa<*t, this does not j . : nearly represent the total cost of the ( ! war to the world. Aside from the ex- j j pendltures of Great Britain the do- | pendencies representing the outlylrfg empire have all Incurred tremendous costs by their part In the war. The United States added more than onel^aif to Its annual expenditures for the fiscal j^ir 1010-17, chiefly by reason ' I : of the^Wir. All over the world countries have been Inerenslng their expenditures in order to carry their part j of the burden which the war hns laid ' upon the world, while tho greater part of them have been suffering and are ' more or less Impoverished because of the dislocation of economic processes. | And there Is yet. by common consent In nil probability at least another I year of war ahead. If the struggle continues to the spring of 15)18 Its cost to belligerents and neutrals will . by that time probably he estimated as high as $100,000,000,000. , I Appalling Human Losses. Along with this loss of substance goes a frightful loss of human re8ources; millions of the host man' hood of tho most highly developed and productive countries. I It Is Impossible to realize the menn, lng of the figures which attempt to r suggest what the war Is costing. Statesmen of Great Britain, France r and Germany have recently been warning their peoples that after peace Is declared the war basis of expenditures will have to go on for yet a long ; " time. It will he Impossible Immediately to - demobilize the armies and return them - to the business of production. The restoration of something like normal conditions will probably require, in the > view of those authorities, as long a time as the length of the war Itself. Of course as the process of demobilize^ tlon goes on and conditions are restored more and more toward the normal the extraordinary expenses will be in progressively diminishing vols' utne. r- The wisest men. the ones In possession of the fullest Information on! e which to base Judgment, shy at every attempt to lend them Into discussion of the Kltuntlnn which the European world will have to cope with after the ; J war. Bonar Law's Reassurance. Ronnr Law, chancellor of the British exchequer and a cool-headed man of affairs, who has no disposition whnt . ever to fall Into panic, lias repeatedly - admitted that England's rate of exI penditure could by no means be enrI) ried on Indefinitely, though he has always coupled this with the renssurr Ing insistence that Britain and her al^ lies could stand the strain longer than their enemies, and that therefore they were bound to win. At no former time In the world's | history whs war so much a question i of economic power as now. The one I Justifiable and really worth while pnr| nllel which history presents to the j present struggle Is of course found In | the wars of the French revolutionary J and Napoleonic periods. Ponar Law has assured the Prltlsh nation that in the opinion of himself and his colleagues in the government the empire will as easily hear the burdens of the war as it did those linposed by the Napoleonic struggles. In! deed, the example which was furi nlshed by the Napoleonic struggles, of | how great nations absorbed over u pe rind of years the tremendous losses | caused In such a struggle, is the one thing whleh furnishes reassurance ! and encouragement to European * statesmen as they contemplate the bur^ den which they are piling up for the ' future to bear. England as Debt Reducer. After the Napoleonic wars England pretty steadily reduced frofn year to ! year the principal of Its debt, and by - successive reorganizations was able I also greatly to reduce the rate of lu- j f terost. The marvelous Increuse of | I wealth, the expansion of commerce, I j the great development of the mercan- J tile marine, the profitable opportunlI ties for foreign Investment that were I afforded by the development all over j | the world not only of Itritish colonies j but of Independent Countries provided I Britain with tho opportunity to re| habilitate Itself. Hut the experience of France following the Napoleonic era was different. France did not possess a great ov??rseas empire whose development gave It opportunities for great profit. Neither did France become a great industrial country during the era of the factory systems development to | anything like the extent Kngland did. Finally, France did not apply Itself in the assiduous English fashion to wiping out the Napoleonic war debt. II France, it. short, lived chiefly withI In herself, while Great Britain became a world empire, Its commerce, Its domains, Ifs Investments, Its every Interest reaching all over the world. | Yet the genius of the French people, though they went about It In an entirely different way, proved Ju?C as capable of taking care of the ob| ligations handed over to It from the I Napoleonic period as did that of the English people. New Heritage of Freedom. If England emerged from that strug- , gle firmly possessed of an empire and colonies and commerce extending to I r EUROPEAN ^ EDAT 66 BILLIONS e Entire Wealth of the UnR?l Reach $100,000,000,000 by This Loss of Substance Loss of Life. France emerged with a new heritage of freedom, of something like real opportunity, with a redistribution of Its land and wealth, which vested the average French family with a power of productiveness quite beyond anything that had been dreamed of or had been possible under the old regime I of bourbonism and feudalism. If England gnlned In substance, Prance Improved In spirit. If England was able to go about paying off Its 1 ... livoi.1, rniuiu was nnie to increase I Its producing capacity ho greatly that I the burden of Its debt was borne with- I DUt difficulty and without interfering with a vast and continuous enhancement of the national wealth. Is It possible that this experience of Europe following the Napoleonic 1 ivars may be repeated after the pres- i snt European struggle? For answer I to this question men with visions of tho future have little dlfllculty finding 1 an nfllrmntlve; and they Justify their , confidence by pointing out that this war Is as truly a war of emancipation ; os were the struggles that began with ( the French Revolution. If the revolution wrenched France | and the ^mtinent generally away from the Institutions of political feudalism and spiritual repression, the present war will, If Its event be fortunate, liberate the world from the Institutions of political militarism and Industrial feudalism. If the land of France was democratized as to its ownership as a result of the revolution the instruments of factory production, of transportation, of finance, developed since the revolution, will be socialized as a result of the present struggle. If the revolution brought not only to France but to the rest of Europe it juster distribution of political power, Ihe war of today will bring a fairer distribution of the products of the 1 world's industry, a wider recognition 1 of man's rights In the pursuit cf lib- ( erty and lii>ppim*s, a great sharpen- I Ing of intelligence and widening of ' educational opportunities. Following the Napoleonic wars %te ' big dominating fact In the econoudc ' development of the nineteenth century was the rise of tin' factory system of 1 production and the development of modern means of transportation. Following the present war It may confidently he expected that there will tie further and no less significant advances In the methods of production, carrying to all the world the benefits of those big, highly organized and-Intensely efiiclent units whose growth has particularly marked the more recent industrial evolution in the United States and Germany. American Republic Is Model. In the direction of nation building, of peopling and utilizing for the common benefit of men the unused places of the world, the master achievement of the nineteenth century, was the building of the American republic. To the twentieth century's aspirations in this same direction is reserved the privilege of making a truly great and modern nation out of the teeming, essentially democratic miU turns ?>r iiusstn; or developing Africa and South America as the eighteenth and nineteenth century developed America; of building great European communities in Australia, in South Africa, In East Africa, in the Niger and Congo basins and in North Africa; of directing tho Occidentalism! inn of China, with Its vast and capable population and utmost limitless resources; of building a group of great, powerful, efliclent democracies on tho foundations that are already firmly laid In the republics of South America. Along with this political development will go an industrial advance whose measure and results must be judged by projecting into the future the gains of the last century. Your industrial democratic thinkers point out always that tho rate of this advance is constantly being accelerated. Science is more and more coming to the re-enforcement of invention. Productive capacity is growing at a pace that moves with tho expansion of intelligence, the improvement of educa-, tlonal methods, and everywhere there Is insistence that educational systems must, in the new era, ho so Improved that tlie intellectual potentiality nl mankind shall be brought to bear upon the problems of tlm race as never he-1 fore. i Europe 0ear3 Strain Well.

The war Is being paid for in great part day by day. month by month. Waste Is turned from Its peace ehnnnels to war channels. War compels the community to save; to waste less in the ordinary ways In order that It may waste more In guns and shells and battleships and mines and nil the paraphernalia of war. A philosopher once snld that If all the constructions and plants of tlio earth's surfnco might be conceived as being destroyed In one cataclysm while leaving Intact the human race In Its present stage of Intellect and adaptability, a single generation would see those structures restored In far more , 'useful practical form, and mankind J would be better for the privilege of ?= Rot many people will want to see ' the experiment tried.

But to the extent that It shall teach men to utilize more effectively J the power contained in this great j stream of human energy, flowing past the undeveloped dam site of each successive today, It will have made human effort more important and accumulated property less so. The chief wealth of the world, after all, is Its people. Europe is learning this.

FAIIIIDC TiiDMcn inikuitL I unilLU INTO A VICTORY Capture of Bagdad Marks Climax of One of Most Dramatic Phases of War. DNCE FIRST CITY OF WORLD Known History of City Reaches Back to Shadowy Times of Nebuchadnezzar?Story of Failure of Townshend. London.?-Bagdad's capture marks j the climax to one of the most druinntlc j ind picturesque phases of the world's war. The city which has fallen to Brit- ' Ish arms links the present#o u past so distant It Is seml-fnhulous. The known history of Bagdad reaches hack for more than four thousand years to the shadowy times of King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon, a piny built by the scriptural monarch still existing, submerged in the Tigris. Within its precincts also there still 1 stunt! tlit' tombs of the Jewish proph- I ets, Joslnm, Ezra, and Ezeklel, ami i.ie ! well of Dun lei. Long nfter the Babylonian dynasty j hml censed to bo more than a memr?ry Bagdad rose to splendor as the artistic, literary, scientific, and religious capital of the world. The heart of the (Treat Islamic empire of the caliphs for hundreds of years, it was known throughout the world as "the Glorious Pity," and was the scene of the fantastic exploits of Ilaroun-al-Raschid, the potentate whose qptigniflcence is Immortalized In the Arabian Nl&hts. Once Had 2,000,000 Souls. In 800 B. <\ Bagdad was credited with a population of 2,000,000 Inhabitants, and was easily the first city in the world In wealth and commerce. With the fall of the caliphs before the Turkish sultans, the decline of Bagdad commenced. It was successively the prey of Turks, Mongols, Tartars, and Persians, but It wu? not until 1G.1S that the city became definitely a part of the Turkish empire. Its ancient importance was largely due to the fact that it stood at the center of the lines of communication between India and Persia and tin? west, but the opening of new routes by way of Treblzond and through Armenia diverted its trade and was a vital factor In its decline. The British campaign against Bagdad was opened early in 1015 when an Anglo Indian force under Maj. Gen. 4'harles Yere Ferrers To\ft\shend was landed at the head of the Persian cnlf nn<l moved rapidly up the Tigris. General Townshond commanded n force of about 40,000 men anil at first lie pushed forward with amazing speed. Early In June, 101ft, he captured Kut-elAniara, about 2.*>0 miles from the mouth of the Tigris and 100 miles from Bagdad. On the 2'2d of the following November lw> reached Ctesiplion, 20 miles from his goal. where he was tittacked by an overwhelming force ?f Ottoman troops. Ills water supply gave out and he was forced to retreat. Fighting a continuous rear-guard notion, the British expedition regained Kut-cl-Amara on December f>. ITere CJeneral Townshend determined to make a stand with a portion of his forces and entrenched with about 10,000 men, while the remainder of his troops continued to fall back along the Tigris In order to Join hands with the relief army that was hurriedly dispatched from France and India after the defeat at Cteslphon. Relief Comes Too Late. For three months Gen. Sir Percy Lake, the relief commander, fought his way up the Tigris and was within eight miles of his besieged comrades when on April 111, 1010, General Townshend. his food supply exhausted, was compelled to surrender. In the meantime additional re-enforcements had been sent from Egypt. But sifter the disaster nt Kut-el-Aruara, iiiu it-limn ui'iiiiiiuik'ii iin' dim iisivt lur several months. The resnin))tlon of British operations on a major scale did not occur until December, 1010, when an advance on Kul-el-Amara was made from the Babylonian plains, while a second force again moved up the Tigris. Gen. Frederick Stanley Maude was In command of the new campaign and was unofllclally reported to huvo 120,000 men ut his disposal. From the time of the opening of the new campaign the British progress was steady and uninterrupted and, In Its last phases, of remarkable rapidity. THE BEST Of Everything TO EAT At Lowest Prices A.

San Francisco Youth Has Had Enough of Excitement for a While. 5 WILL TRY TO FORGET WAR 4 Met Hie First Submarine In the Mediterranean and His Second In Irish Sea?No Warning Given Either Time. Boston.?Joseph Barnett of San Francisco, lute second saloon cook aboard the Bnron Ogllvy, is only twenty, llut twice he hus been the victim of u" submarine. Young Burnett met his first submarine in the Mediterranean a -year ago, his second in the Irish sen lust Janu- jfl ury. Now he's on his way back to Kan Fruncisco, where the war seems fur away. No more of the sea for him, he says, until the war's over. lie shipped first, when he was four*" teen, us u galley boy aboard a Union Line bout plying between Vancouver, San Francisco and Austrulla. Four years later found him second saloon cook aboard the Medic of the White Star line, bound from Liverpool to Mediterranean ports und the Antipodes with u general cargo. This was In February of last year. They had been 15 days out and were somewhere oft Sicily, Burnett thought, W though out of sight of lund, when a torpedo put uu emphatic period to their progress. Never Saw Submarine. "We never did see the submarine or the torpedo," he said. "It was about dusk, and the seu was fulrly smooth. I was cooking In the galley when she ^9} hit us. There was an explosion In ^ the engine room which wiped out the whole watch below?about u dozen of them?and the ship lurched to starboard suddenly and all the dishes und pans went sliding. The cook and I rushed up on deck, and so did the rest, but we were ordered buck. " 'It's nil right, lads,' the captain said. 'Don't lose your heads. Go buck. 4 It'll hi. ill) flirl.1 - ? 1 "But she began settling down at the stern, and soon we were told to take to the boats. It took ten minutes to lower them?there was no trouble? and then we pulled away and luld by until she went down, stern first, half * an hour later. A French torpedo bout picked us up and we were luudcd In Marseilles the next morning." Six months later he shipped aboard the Huron Ogilvy of the Huron line, out of Ulasgow, again bound for Australia. And he made the passage there and hack to Liverpool on her, with no unusual incident to mark either voyage. It was after his ship hud discharged her cargo of frozen mutton at the latter port and was on her way to Harry, on the Welsh coust, to loud with coal for the Hrltlsh tleet, that he met with his second und greater adventure. For at noon of the next day the stern lookout made out a periscope sticking its tiny head about six inches above the waves in the wake of the ship. lie gave the alurm, and part of the crew was set to work Immediately swinging out the lifeboats. Almost al| the rest were ordered below to help the stokers crowd on steam, Mennwhlle the gun crew manned the 13-pouuder at the stern, and the jk captain sturted his distress rockets soaring. But neither stern gun nor rockets brought results. And with all the extra stokers the Baron Ogilvy could make no more thun 11 knots. The ^ submarine discharged lu? first torpedo at 12:15,' und missed. Then, to get into better position, she rose to the surfuce, and in the course of the chase circled the freighter two or three times, diving and rising like a great porpoise. . Thouciht Thev Had Laat H?p. The Ogllvy appeared helpless. While the submarine, whether submerged or awash, was racing ahead of her or abreast of her, her stern guu could not bo brought to bear on Its target. The captain steered a zigzag course, ever edging toward shore. The submarine" discharged another torpedo about three o'clock, and missed again. J Then for a while she was no longer seen. The crew of the Ogllvy thought they were free of her. Their gun crew had tired 83 shots, all the ammunition they had. About five o'clock, to their consternation, the submarine rose from the seu on their sturbeard bow und started shelling the Ogllvy with both deck guns. The freighter was only about three-quarters of u mile off shore by this time, and Captain Thompson benched her, while the submarlue lay off half a mile and continued her shelling. Both masts of the Ogilvy, her wireless house and her funnel were carried away, but the only human cusu- 4 alty aboard her was a leg wound suffered by one of the gunners. j ne miiiiv speedily attracted tne const guard ashore, which brought oat artillery and drove the enemy off.
