Berlin, May 30.—Germany, in its Lply to the United States, flatly de lares the sinking of the Lusitania to ave been justified on the grounds of elf-defense. The Lusitania, it con­ suls, carried ammunition to be used ,, killing German soldiers. It is also ’untended that the Lusitania was an uxiliary cruiser of the British navy; hat she was armed and that she car- led Canadian troops, as well as war material. No indication of desire or intention f abating the submarine plan, of war- kre is given in the German reply, ’he note, however, is not framed as a ircct answer to the American de- lands, but is rather an ad interium eplv, setting forth that certain facts re first to be decided on before the Lain issues are discussed by the two overnments. Spring of Neutrals Intended. The Berlin government takes up rst the case of the Guflight and ie Cushing. It says these are now ing investigated, but that it is not erniany’s intention to submit neu- al ships on the high seas, guilty of p hostile acts to attacks. When neu- ials through no fault of their own e damaged Germany will nay in- mnification, she says. 'he case of the Falaba is also men- oned, and in this instance it is dc- ared that the captain of the ship is mself to blame because of his effort escape and to summon aid. Destruction of Lusitania Upheld. The declaration that the Lusitania d cannon aboard and was an auxil- ry cruiser of the British navy is ade strongly. All blame for the de­ ruction of the vessel is placed on e British owners, who arc accused attempting “deliberately to use the •es of American citizens as protec- jn for the ammunition aboard and ted against the clear provisions of e American law, which expressly ohibits the forwarding of passen- rs on ships carrying ammunition <1 provides a penalty therefor.” The reply says it deems these c Èr­ instances "important enough to commend them to the attentive ex- rination of the American Govern- Early Proposals Recalled. The reply says that final decision I the demands of the United States withheld until receipt of an, answer the preliminary note, but it re- inds the United States that it “took gnizancc with satisfaction” of the tdiatory proposals submitted by the niter! States to Berlin and London a basis for a modus vivendi for ritime warfare. The realization of these proposa's. ys the reply, "was defeated, as is II known, by the declinatory atti- e of the British government.” Notice to School District Boards The attention of the school board called to some laws that were en- ted at the last Stale Legislature t are now in force and should be served.

His wife hath her limousine and his first born sporteth a racing car that can hit her up at forty flat. Lo! All the people breaketh their necks to hand him money. A child is born unto the wife of a merchant in the bazaar. 1 he physician getteth ten golden plunks. 1 he editor writeth a stick and a half and telleth the multi­ tude that the child tippith the beam at nine pounds. \ ca, he liveth even on a centrurion. And the proud father giveth him a cremo. Behold, the young one groweth up and graiiuateth. And the editor put- eth into his paper a swell notice. Yea, a peach of a notice. He telleth the wisdom of the young woman and of her exceeding comliness. Like unto the roses of Sharon is she and her gown is played up to beat the band. And the dressmaker getteth two score and four iron men. And the editor getteth a note of thanks from the S. G. G. The daughter gocth a journev. Arid the editor throweth himself on the story of the farewell party. It runnith a column solid.

But the editor calleth him one of our most promising youn«* men and RCtteth away with it. And they send undo him a bid to the wed­ ding feast and behold, the bids ar- fashioned by Muntgummery Hawk­ buck, in a fairy city. Flowery and long is the wedding notice which the editor printeth. The minister getteth ten bones. Thcgroom standeth the editor off for a twelve month subscription. All flesh is grass and at last the wife is gathered into the silo. The minister getteth his bit. The editor printeth a death notice, two columns of obituary, three lodge notices, a cubit of poetry and a card of thanks. And he forgeteth to read proof on the head, and the darned thing cometh out, “Gone to Her Last Roasting Place.” And all that are akin to the deceas­ ed jumpcth on the editor with ex­ exceeding great jumps. And they nul- leth out their ads and canc.’lleth their subscriptions and swing the hammar unto third and fourth gener- ations. Canst thou beat it ? Head I iglit, June 3, Ifilô.
