flEIGfJ OF TERROR IN DUBLIN STIRS BRITISH PEOPLE

Situation So Critical that Premier Asqnith Leaves Parliament for Scene of Sinn Fein Revolt. DENOUNCE EXECUTIONS Irish Member Calls Govern merit's Policy Insane and Sees Racial Hatred Aroused After 300 Years. LONDON. May 13. With the reign of terror in Dublin settled, interest this week centered in the debate in parliament n the cruel methods adooted toward the lead ers of the rebellion. The situation became so critical that Premier Asquith left London for Dublin Friday night. Fifteen leaders of the Sinn Fein rebellion were executed after court naartial trials. A wave of horror swept over the United States wlien news of this drastic action became known. The general sentiment is that England made a mistake in executing the men, for their deaths will be looked upon as blood spilt for a noble cause. John Dillon, speaking in be'ialf of the Irish cause, made a notable address in parliament Thursday, in- which he severely arraigned the government. He called the government's policy insane. "You are letting loose a river of blood between two races," he said, "which after 300 years of hatred we had nearly succeeded in bringing together. You are washing out our whole life work in a sea of blood." Mr. Dillon said that a " twelve-year-old boy had been intimidated with death if he would not give evidence. He was put in front of a firing squad, but remained steadfast. When the military authorities saw he could not be intimidated, he was released. Measures of this kind, Mr. Dillon asserted, would never heal the breach between England and ireland. BRITAIN HOLDS UP RED GROSS WORK WASHINGTON. May 13.

WAR REVIEW

VERDUN FRONT Military critics made another bad guess last week when they asserted that action on the Verdun front had ceased, and that hereafter that sector would see little fighting. During the past week the Germans renewed their bombardment of the fortifications with their giant guns and made a number of infantry attacks. The French were forced to fall back, but the Germans did not make enough headway to entitle them to clrim a decisive victory. . CAUCASUS. In the Mount Kope sector of the Caucasus front, the Turks drove back the Russians over a ten mile front, capturing 300 men and four machine guns. On the Mesopotamian frontier, the Russians report steady gains. The Turks are reported in flight. ITALIAN FRONT. No action that might change the situation took place between the Italians and Austrians in the last week. Isolated engagements between patrols and small parties are reported. - EAST AFRICA. The Kaiser's forces in German East. Africa have received reinforcements and are again advancing toward the British lines in the Kohdoa-Irangi district. Every father and mother will enjoy even a bunch of wild violets or a twig of spring blossoms. When they are dead they cannot see the expensive roses you place on their caskets. Why not give them the flowers when they are alive?
