The librarian said that he had found data that added interest to gome of the treasurers in the mu¬ seum. The spinnet was a rare speci¬ men of its kind, as few upright spin- nets were manufactured. This was probably the great grandmother of the upright piano. He had found a viola and a violin made by Azarias Smith, a young farmer at Chrisiian Spring, they were part of a quartette of violins used in the Schoeneck Church.

Following the ancient customs, the bill of fare was simple but ample for all needs. After a hymn was sung in memory of the departed members. Miss Adelaide Fries, of Salem ,N .C, read the trans¬ lation of the diary kept by her great grandfather, Lewis de Schweinitz, during a' journey from Germany to America, at the breaking out of the ¦War of 1812. It was a journey of unlimited privations and dangers not alone from the usual perils of the sea but from threatened attacks from Tessels of the French and* English navies. Their ship, the Minerva Smith, Captain Man, was the only American vessel that succeeded in safely reaching the United Stvtej. Ail the rest were captured. French privateer men waited at the ent.-aiice of the harbor to capture thom but were compelled to flee by the coming of an English fleet of 150 sail. li> tho darkness a'nd fog Captain Mai or¬ dered all lights to be extinguished and risked the danger of putting out to sea. The next morning tho fleet was nowhere to be seen, and they were able to proceed on their voy¬ age. A man of war, oa'rrying the Brit ish colors, overhauled them and thoy feared that, after they had bten transforre<l, to that vessel, thel.- own •hip might be burned to prevtnt re- cajituro. After some delay for e.v- pla'nationu they found it was an Aiu- erican vessel whiofa had hoistel tiic English flag as a ruse. The captain strongly advised them not to tr/ to make the port of PhiiadelphU as English vessels were cruising off the coast, on that route. Later they were agslA overhauled by flve venel'> bearing the Stars and Stripes. Thoy were able to assist these ships by turnlshtng tresh meat for their sIck. (Continued on page 4.) i Y.M.C.A.

Cheer¬ ing wns sinned wben the President ap¬ peared, tind he raised his hat several times in response. There was a group of wounded soldiers on a bench in the Red Cross canteen, nnd when they ap¬ plauded him the President smiled and nodded. Word had gone out that no one should attempt to arrange for an en¬ gagement with the President or bring to his attention in any manner what¬ soever the question of the contest over the peace treaty or other problems which are holding the stage. This order, issued by Admiral Gray¬ son, extended even to Senator Hitch¬ cock, leader of the administration forces In the senate. It Is Dr. Grayson's intention. If he can enforce the schedule, to Insist that the President shall not receive any of the Democratic senators or discuss with any one the treaty situation In the senate until he is satisfied that Mr. Wilson has made a very material gain in strength. It is probable that Ad¬ miral Grayson will call other physi¬ cians in consultation and that a defi¬ nite decision then will be made as to whether the President will be permit¬ ted to reniHln In Washington. Admiral Grayscm Is satisfied that the President Is not suffering f^m any orgnnie trouble. But the nervous exhaustion had reached a point where the President found it exceedingly dif¬ flcult to control himself nt times, and It wns obvious that nirlher effort on his pnrt to keep actively in the flght niiglil bring about serious complica¬ tions. Of chief concern to those who are watching the President's health ia his evident disinclination to give up par¬ ticipation in the treaty contest nnd lo consider a situntlon where he would not be nble to take nn active part In the conference between labor and cap¬ ital.

Trau is in the zone which the Su¬ preme Council of the Pnris Peace Con¬ ference assigned to the United States for the preservation of order and neu¬ trality pending the Council's decision of the Fiume question, which involves disposition of the Dalmatian coast The Information made public was a summary of or extract from a cabled report sent by Rear Admiral Harry S. Knapp, who succeeded Admiral 'Will¬ iam S. Slmms in command of the American naval forces In European waters. Admiral Knapp's message was based on a report from Rear Admiral Philip Andrews, commanding the United States naval force oa the I>al- mattan coast. The cable message from Admiral Knapp, as furl^hed to the press by Sscretary Daniels, read: "On September 23 a number of Ital¬ ians surprised and captured Tran, • Dalmatian port lc the zone assigned by the Supreme Council to be policed by the Americans. A small landing force from the U. S. S. Olympia succeeded In recovering the town and pre8er^•- Ing order there without bloodshed. Serbians were persuaded by Admiral Andrews from taking action." ' Rear Admiral Ainlrews, in reporting the landing, snid he acted on Istruc- tions from the Supreme Council at Paris, received after he had reported that B force of Itnllrns, apparently revolutionists, had occupied the city on the morning of Sept. 2.^. His mes¬ sage did not say whether the Ameri¬ cana still occupied the town, but press An attempt will be made this year lo revive football, at .N'azarelh. For the last few yearji football has re¬ ceived little encouragement from the fans of the town, with the result that the success of the Nazareth teama has been mediocre and freiiuently minus the best of quality. But will the coming of three coa'ches, ''Bub" Sti¬ ver, from Delaware State College; ¦'Charlie" Schmidt, tormer Lafayette coach and linesman, and Lindeman, a former halfback of Franklin and -Marshall College, there v.ill alsu como a change in the football situa¬ tion.

GARY %mm PLAN m LA33R PARLEY Omaha, Neb.—As a clltnnx to a dny of riolliig here in tlie heart of the city, during wbicli one nmn was slain, a score wounded, hundreds of shots fired and tbe County ''ourt House burned in protest agaiusl recent crimes by negroes, William I'.ruwn, a negro pris¬ oner held for an attack on a white girl, was lynched as he was trying to esoaiie from tbe burning struciure. The mob wlii<b nuiuliereii ibuusaiiils, both men nnd wumen, hanged tbe negro to an electric pule, and as his body was llgbted by the flames from the burning building, riddled it with bullets. wiiile the greater pari of tbe mob wns surrounding the court hm se. Mayor E. P. Smith mounted a box and a!i|"iil,.d to the rioters to disperse. He wa.-^ sei-ed, b:e!ly be;iten nnd his nock aciuaily was put in a noose be¬ tore he could be rescued. Removed to a hospllal, he remained unconscious Sunday, Sept. 28, was a red letter day in the life of the Monktiaa Church, Nazareth, as it was Rally Day. special efforts had been made to reach every member, and if possible to have him or her present at all the services. At the morning service there was a large attendance. Tbe pastor had as his theme, "Laborere togeiher with God" and he urged all to reconsecrate themselves anew to tlie Master and to labor with Him In the great plans. He had for the salva¬ tion of the individual, and for the re¬ demption of the world At night the audience, as usual, was considerably larger. He spoke upon the questioa that God put to Moses, "What is that in thy hand?" It was nothing but a simple stick cut from some wayside thicket, yet when it was employed for God it became a rod of power, that changed the makers ot the river into I blood, that brought the plague of lo¬ custs, that divided the waters of the Red Sea that, when held out, brought victory for God's people over tbe Amaleketes. The 12 disciples were ordinary fishermen, but they became fishers of men, the widow's two mites was a very small contribution, but It has brought encouragement to thous ands for near 2000 years. Jerry McCauley was a river thief, Dwlgbt L. Moody an ordinary clerk in a shoe I store, Billy Sunday a baseball play^, i but using what they had for God, j they did great things in His name. I If we have but one talent, or no tal- I ent, and give what we have to God, He can accomplish mighty things i thru us. All seemed specially interested In i the work of the Sunday-school. Two ' selections by a full orchestra were specially fine. The infant class car- 1 ed for by Misses Emma and Kat^e I Schmickley recited Psalm 23 aad sang "Bring them in, bring the little ones to Jesus."

A. certainly has not forgotten how to treat the soldiers. That was demonstrated Friday night when they entertained the World War veterans in the local Y. M. C. A. They did it in the good, old fashioned way, the way that made them so fa¬ mous in the A. E. F., and the differ¬ ent American camps. One of the best programs ever staged in the local Y. M. C. A. was rendered to the ex-ser¬ vice men of Easton, and fully two hundred asserted their appreciation by the active part, and interest they took in the affair. Boxing and wrest¬ ling matches were two of the features while vocal selections and a clever Impersonation of Harry Lauder by Alex Cinhbertson, tended to make the progra.'m a most complete success. Music was furnished by the Easton High School orchestra. Although the boxing matches were a big feature, they wero not the whole show by any means. A wrest¬ ling match between Schleicher and "Bob" Reed, the only wrestling match of the evening, brought the spectators to their feet. Reed won the first down in two minutes aad 15 seconds. Schleicher won the second. Mr. Murphy, of Phillipsburg, an ex- overseas man, sang two solos.

Breaking the silence lie has : ing their way Into the bnilding that maintained since the beginning of the sirike, Mr. Gary wrote a statement while sented at the table, and then, calling the newspnper men into the hall, read it to them. "The board of directors of the United States Steel Corporation are the representatives of neariy 150,000 stockholders including from 60,000 to 70,000 employees," snid the statement "We are their servants and are select¬ ed to represent and protect their in¬ terests and also the interests of all our 250,000 employees, the majority of whom, I think, are not members of labor unions. "Moreover, I believe our corporation is under great obligations to the gen¬ eral puhlic concerning the Issues In¬ volved in the pending strike. In these circumstances I would not at present assume to answer the question propounded to me. However, I will sny for myself that 1 the flrst fatality came, on» of the men being shot dead and others se¬ riously wounded. Two negro police¬ men sent to maintain order were beaten almost to death, women being In the throngs that manhandled tbem. Flre hose run to the blazing court house was cut again and again, and the flames gradually progressed to the Jail floor, where 100 prisoners were hemmed in by the flames. Brown, the negro who was lynched, was in jail, charged with attacking Agnes Lobeck, a young white girl. He had been positively identified by Mlss Lobeck, as well as by her escort, a cripple, when the assault occurred. For weeks the riot had been brew¬ ing. In six weeks more than twenty cases of attacks by negroes have oc¬ curred. Several murders have been perpetrated and hold-ups by negro criminals have been nightly occur¬ rences. The courts sentenced one ne- faithful to the Sunday-school In all \ His work. [ When Secretary Ziegler read his I report there came a gasp of astonisl- ment when he announced that t je ! collection amounied to $180., of this I the Senior Bible Class, taught by An¬ drew Kern, contributed $111. There was a hand clapping of Joy and com. i mendatlon all over the house. En- ! couraged by this manifestation of liberality alid devotion the pastor urged the school to finish, befara Christmas, paying $470, the amount still due of the $2000—that the school had pledged itselt to pay tor the Sunday-school building. The fine singing of the Male Choir, at the ev¬ ening service was enjoyed by all.
