Efforts to Arrive at Understanding
Which May Result in Approval

Washington.—President Wilson on
Sunday Intervened In the peace treaty
dilemma, with the announcement that
lie had "no compromise or concession
of any kind In mind," would make no
move toward Hie treaty's dls|MiHitlnn,
and would continue to hold tbe Repub

Tbe president's (swiiion. regarded ns
p citllurly significant In view of the
recent discussion in the senate of a
compromise, was set forth In'Hu* fol
lowing statement Issued from the
Wldte House.
"It was learned from the highest
authority at the executive offices to
day that the hope of the Republican
leaders of the senate that the presi
dent would presently wake some move
which will relieve the situation with
regard to the treaty Is entirely wIthout
foundation ; he has nn compromise or
concession of any kind in mind, but
Intends, so far as be Is concerned, that
the Republican leaders of the senate
shall continue to bear the undivided
responsibility for the fate of Hie treaty
and the present condition of the world
In consequence of that fate.''
The Mblle House statement appar
ently had no effect In changing the
treaty situation. Democratic leaders.
Indorsing the president's views, de
clared Huit it did not preclude a sen
ate compromise and that compromise
efforts would proceed. Republican
leaders rellemted that Ibe president
was responsible for the present status
and tniist make the first move toward
a solution. Senators hoping lo kill the
treaty alone expressed satisfaction.

The occasion was committee consid

Mason, Republican, Illinois, which
would appropriate funds for dispatch
of diplomatic and consular representa

Insurgent Irish republicans. Its suji

condemned it as an effort to Involve
the United States in a dangerous for

AFTER SLEEP OF CENTURIES
Ecclesiastic May Be Said to Havt Rs
turrtsd ta Earth for a Few
Brief Momenta
There was a little gathering In th*
green graveyard of an old priory
church. There was the rector and an J/ß'
eld antiquary In rusty black, a few
neighboring squires, the county police
sergeant, the sexton and a laborer or
two, wbllt an ancient atone coffin, re
cently unearthed, lay on the ground.
"Who do you suppose It Is, profes
sor?" Inquired the rector.
The old man In black polished hie
glasses and adjusted them carefully.
"It must be Thomas DeBoehm's," he
said. "Thomas who was prior here in
the time of Henry HI, about 1220. But
we shall see."
A bush fell on the group as the men
set to work with hammer and chlael.
"All ready," the sexton reported
presently. They took off their hats and
the policeman removed his helmet. The
ponderous lid was slowly pushed aside
and they were gazing at the calm,
strong face of an ecclesiastic In rich
silk vestments, wrapped In bis 700
years' sleep.
"Yes. It's Thomas," murmured the
profeasor, with the air of one recog
nizing an old friend. "Very like the
contemporary portrait on the vellum."
As they continued to gaze, spell
bound. a weird thing happened. The
vestments gradually lost their color
ing and then all that the coffin con
tained crumbled before their eyes to a
mere handful of ashes.
"Dust to dust," whispered the rec
Very subdued and silent the little
company dispersed.—London Times.
PHANTOM GAVE GOOD ADVICE
Apparition That Appeared to French
Shepherd Wae Possibly Some Re
lation to the Leprechaun.
Every Irishman can tell you about
Hie Leprechaun, the llttl* man who
dresses In red with a peaked cap. and
lives lo the ditches. Only on« person
can see him at a time, and If he does
catch eight of him, must never take
hie eye» off for a -»Ingle moment.
Watching him carefully, he must run
and catch him. and if he succeeds In
doing so the Leprechaun will ransom
himself by lending his captor to a
creek of hurled gold. At least, so runs
the legend.
Some years ago a French shepherd,
of Aveyron lost two sheep. The fol
lowing evening a figure In a blafk robe
and with tonsured bend appeared to
him. and told him to look for the lost
members of his flock In a cave near
Altes, adding that he would there find
"more than sheep."
The next day the shepherd found
the cave mouth exactly as described.
Inside were his two sheep. Beyond,
he came upon a chapel carved In the
rock and containing chalice», censers,
and candle-sticks all made of solid
silver, and of very considerable value,
A letter found In a missal showed that
the place hsd been used as a place of
worship during the Reign of Terror In
1793
The shepherd took th» orna
ment» to his parish priest and was
well rewarded for his find.
