FALL OF STATUE
EHDS HUH LUCK
Quaint Legend of Albert Madon
na, Distorted by Germans,
Has Sequel.
TRICK OF PARISH PRIEST
When Virgin of Albert Wai Dethroned
the Hunt From Being Truculent
Conqueror Were Forced to
Knee in Submission.
London. All the world knows the
story of the Madonna which was dis
lodged by German shall fire from its
perch on tiie tower of the parish
church at Albert during the first mad
rush of the Huns through France in
1914. The statue did not fall, nor was
it greatly damaged, hut the base was
so shattered that it hung precariously
over the main road from Amiens to
Bapaume, which passes under the
very walls of the beautiful old church.
For some reason, when the red tide of
war swept westward through Albert,
the Hun did not complete the destruc
tion of the tower, and the statue still
maintained its strange poise after the
invaders had been rolled back at the
battle of the Marne.
Day of Great Hope.
Those were the days of great hope.
France was fighting with skill and de
termination. Britain was steadily in
creasing her small but wonderful
army, and, the Russians were advanc
ing almost at a gallop through Last
Prussia. In fact, there were optimists
who thought Germany would sue for
peace before Christmas Christmas,
1914 ! Some hint of the trend of popu
lar thought was given by the quaint
conceit which grew up in the hearts of
the people, namely, that when the Vir
gin of Albert fell (as fall she must, in
the opinion of all who saw the statue)
the war would end in a victory for
France and her allies. But the war
did not end, nor did the statue fall,
and the opposing armies settled down
to nearly four years of trench war
fare, with the odds greatly, in favor
of the Hun, and success constantly at
tending his efforts and those of his ill
omened helpers, the Turks.
The Germans, who certainly never
miss a point in their efforts to under
mine their opponents morale, seized
on the legend. Varying It to suit their
purpose they spread the story far and
wide that when the statue fell France
would lose the war. Now, the town of
Albert possesses a most patriotic and
efficient parish priest No sooner did
the Hun version of the story reach
his ears than he sought out a skilled
blacksmith. The two ascended the
half-ruined tower, surveyed the broken
base, and so braced and riveted the
statue to its recumbent position that)
fall it could not until the tower Itself i
gave way.
Hun Again in Albert
So for many a day every British.

Tommy" who marched" to the front
along the road to Bupaume raised hla
wondering eyes to the Madonna high
above his head and few there were,
of any denomination who -failed to.
find In its strange attitude a species
of benign benediction. At last, during
those Muck days of last March and
April, the seemingly impossible hap
pened. The British line bent before
th" fury of a German assault, aided
as it was by long-continued fog, and
the Hun was once again In Albert.
When the British retired the statue
was still Intact, but, whether by ac
cident or design Is not yet known, the
Germans brought down the tower, and
with it fell the virgin and child. And
here comes the strange part of the
story, to which latest development
public attention Is now directed for
the first time. Hardly a yard farther
did the German advance progress.
From that day onward the green
gray hordes were pressed back, slowly
at first, but with an ever-Increasing ce
lerity which finally developed to a
rout
In a word the luck of the Huns
deserted them when the Virgin of Al
bert was dethroned. From being the
truculent conquerors of nearly all En
rope they were forced to their knees
whining for mercy. The foregoing
facts cannot be gainsaid. Viewed in
retrospect they form one of the most
curious and interesting episodes of
the greatest of all wars.
I Is Last Person to
Hear of End of War
Manchester, Conn. While
many local citizens were claim
ing the honor of being the first
to hear locally of the news of
the signing of the armistice In
France, Dr. W. E. Greene re
turned from a trip to Maine,
where he had been hunting in
the woods, and announced that
he was probably among the last
persons in the country to learn
of the end of the war.
Girl Orphan in Demand.
Los Angeles, Cal. That orphan girl
bubies find homes more easily than
boy babies is evidenced by a report
issued here by the Children's Home
society of California. One hundred
and thirty-seven families have applied
to the society recently to adopt giri
babies, while only 50 families want to
adopt boy babies.

WOMAN BOSSES MINE
Heads Corporation Controlled En
tirely by Her Sex.
Operates Garnet Mine in Alaska and
Lead, Zinc and Silver Mine
in Arizona.
New York. From the far West
there now comes to us the lady miner,
Miss Anna Durkee, organizer and con
trolling element of a $1,000,000 cor
poration run entirely by women. Miss
Durkee operates a garnet mine in
southern Alaska and lead, zinc and sil
ver mines in Arizona. She is the lar
gest individual mine owner in the Oat
man district of Arizona, and the most
widely known woman In the mining
world.
It was while she was In Alaska seven
years ago, Investigating a proposition
in copper, that Miss Durkee first be
came Interested in a garnet mine, was
given an option on it and finally took
It over in the name of a corporation
which bad a board of 15 women direc
tors. At the beginning the mine did not
seem to amount to a great deal, but
as Miss Durkee began to develop the
first claim with which the corporation
started, veins were discovered opening
out in every direction, and as the work
continued the amazing fact dawned
that the entire mountain was a gigan
tic mine of the beautiful crystals, with
ledges of garnets extending from the
sea level toa distance of 3,600 feet
op the mountain side.
But the greatest value of the deposit
consists in a by-product of garnet
waste, discovered by Miss Durkee,
who passed two years in a chemical
laboratory working it out. She had
observed that garnets when milled did
not fuse with iron or brass, and follow
ing this up, she discovered a new use
for the waste garnet, of which there
were hundreds of thousands of tons.
"Ground to a certain mesh and put
through a secret process the waste gur
net makes a separating powder valu
able in foundry work," she stated.
The garnets of Miss Durkee's mine
are of the finest variety, almandines.
Because of their beauty and hardness,
geologists have given them the name
of "precious garnets."

WATCH FOR LOANS TO HUNS
American Defense Society to Make
Public Name of Bank Which
May Aid Teuton.
New York. A resolution passed by
the national boycott committee of the
American Defense society makes In
discriminate lending by American
banks to Germany a more or less
hazardous business from a financial
point of view. It is contended by the
society that American depositors have
a right to be notified in advance of
any Intention on the part of the banks
to lend their money to build up Ger
man countries, and It holds Itself
ready to inform the depositors if
their money is so used without their
consent
"The principle involved is quite
clear," said Richard M. Hurd, chair
man of the national boycott commit
tee. "It is analogous to the bill just
introduced by Senator Lodge, provid
ing that the public should be Informed
of all stores dealing In German goods
by having a conspicuous sign placed
over their doors, 'Dealer in German
Goods.'
"Americans have not forgotten the
Infamous atrocities of the Germans
and, what Is more, their entirely un
moral and ruthless aim for world do
minion, which Germany's enforced
surrender has in nowise altered.
Every aid given by the allieQ coun
tries toward building up Germany
brings nearer the day of Germany's
next war upon the world."

"Now that the terrible war Is j
over you must be glad that you
helped to win it by saving food
for our soldiers and our unhappy
friends across the sea. But our
work of feeding hungry people is
now to be greater than it has ever
been. Many millions of people
have been made free by our vic
tory, but they are In the greatest
danger of death from starvation.
They look to America for food
until the next harvest.
We must go on saving and shar
ing wi(h them as faithfully as

want to do your part as you have
been doing. We have a greater
task than any of us can imagine
in saving the world from famine,

all he can. I am counting upon
