WHAT IS PATRIOTISM. Col. Rootevelt t':iat in timet the church i.i dnt to decline. Tnis may or may not h? sr, but tlie church should not dci'ire at any t'n.e, but should steadily advance.

"1 regret I can not live longer for Krir'and." On Monday evening, October 11. 1015, the Rev. Mr. (iah, a Bri'ish rhaiduin in Brussels, was admitted by -;c;ai p;isr.prt to the prison of St. failles. As the divine entered the conlines f th" Onnan military prison the n ufflod thunder of the heavy guns ! w:.e ftndir.g its way through the multifarious noises of a military- street p.rti tho whole scene was dampened hv a cold drizzle as if even the heavr.5i would add to the depres: ion of tlie prison atmosphere. A military court-martial in the earIv afternoon had parsed the final tl'tith sentence on one Kdith Cavell. a Hi itlsh imr;-e ho had remained ben,r,, w.npl, tn rovll armiea retreated f. r the purpose of ndmini.-itering to of her woundrd countrymen a technical sentence of espionage. rt'UCfh her own words, in her ;ned .la'.ement ?.nd hy public acnwlcdgmerit in the military court ich tried her. Edith Cavell admit1 tlie eharpe to be true and the sentence iut. Actually, her offense eonited of maintaining a sort of "tindersTround'' route for assisting Hr:tt-h prisoner in thp German hands to escape and, is a rule, the men who thus regained toeHoi,! were experts in some line, ,i:'.d their observations within the ?nemy lines preved of much utility on their rejoining the Itriti.sh forces. The Rev. fiahan found the frail little woman calm and resigned. Fear w.is at no time expressed or adnitUf. After a touching interview, she pave him n,es.n?es to dear friends .i .1 i.latiies. In a.-tirtpsr him her denortment before the firing sfjund would he truly British she said, "I hnve no fear nor shrinking. I have .'en death so often that it is not s'rarce or painful to me." All through the dreary afternoon t'le American legation was raking a ti'-eless effort in a great fight to save the life of the heroic norKS or at the

lo. t hy the ac-' lean to obtain a sentence less horOrmnns Ev- rible than death but hardly the les

, f.arful.

Mr. Whitl'vk, the American minister, assigned Gaston Do Laval, attnre n to ti:e legation, to he Miss faveil's counsel at the military trial. As we have seen, his efforts were abortive indeed, the ea.-rf' seems to have been almost hopeless from the lirst. At 8:3.1 word was received at the ineriran legation that Miss Cavell was to be "hot some time during the r-itrbt. The ligation assumed a feverish vtivity; tlie.se keen Americans had decided to fight the death penalty to tlie luit. Attache endeavored to get i.i contact with Raroa von der lincken, c':ief of the political department. Tne Spanish minister wa retained for the influence he wielded at that tine. Tlie situation licrame. desperate hn Baron von der Lanrken could ?'.t he located. Early in the evening He had left his office for an evening's entertainment at the theatre. Baron; von Falkenhauser and Count Harrach,' Tonbrrs of the political department and on the stuff if von rier Ijinrken, ' are located, however, and at 10:.'IO the chief of the political ricpertment is found; he hurried to hit oBiee.

Almost with the spark of life fleetirg from the girl's body a wave of horror and disgust sweeps over the civilized people of the world. Von Bissing, the German militry governor, lasta but a short time in the limelight. For the wave of loathing is nowhere stronger than m Germany. The efTicers and government endeavor to palliate the situation, hut the German people realize the inhumanity of the tct and the monstrous blunder of the autocracy that autocracy of which the German people see the hitterst side inside the allied ring of steel. In a man's fight she did for her ounirv wnat men wouia iei ner no. And then did more. In a man's fight they took and shot her down at they would a man. "It is worse than a crime; it it a blunder," said Fouch. of Napoleon's d'Enghien. The action of the German military authorities in Belgium who exeruted Edith Cavell belongs likewise to the claes of blunders that are worse than crimes L'Eroie Intirmiere Relge, the Belgin- school of which Miss Cavell had r!-arr;e, was started by hr in one littH room.
