A German information service says
“Because of tlie seizure of ships car
rying copper ore by- tho British, at
least 3,000 families are on the verge
of starvation in Leghorn alone. Lack
ing raw material for the manufac
ture of copper tubes, plates, anil am
munition, the Italian Metallurgical
Corporation, which supplies the state
railways, the army and navy, has
closed its works, throwing over 39,
000 workers out of employment. ’ ’

A Paris special says a less rigid
censorship on news is demanded in
resolutions adopted Wednesday by
tho Socialist group in Parliament.
Resolutions call upon the, government

Only limitations that should be im

ing information which might work
to the detriment of military oper
ations and diplomatic negotiations.
XXX
A Paris cable Btates: “German
prisoners are now devoid of bras“
buttons and badges and even the
points of the famous Pickelhauben
helmcnts. The state has ordered
them to hand over everything con
taining copper to tho authorities and
also to search the abandoned house”
for similar objects, however trifling.”
XXX
The real reason for the strict guard
ing of the Belgian Dutch frontier
says the Martin’s carrespondent at
Ilarve, is an epidemic of desertion
which began in the German ranks af
ter the battle of tho Pser. From
November 15 to December 15, there
were 11.000 desertions from the gar
rison of Bfngges alone.

A press correspondent before Sois

XXX
A Paris cable says that German

REIGN OF ATTILA. ’
Barbaric Brutality of That Savage
King of the Huns.
Atllln was a barbarous king of the
Huns who reigned from tlie yenr 434 to
453 of the Christian era, but be bad uo
religion except that of brutality, con
quest and loot. He ruled witb all the
weupous known hi that day, and bis
hordes were compelled to follow him
by the same means, as be had uo mercy
on any tvho showed the least lack of
fealty to him or mercy to the con
quered. For a considerable part of Ills
reign it is said that bts Individual word
was law over a vast territory extend
Ing from the Caspian sea to the river
Rhine. As a leader be was fearless
und masterful and savage. He called
himself "the Scourge of God."
He ruled Jointly with his brother for
several years, hut wanted no division
of the spoils, and Ills royal brother was
disposed of as others of the royalties
of that region have been disposed of.
He founded the elty of Budn. made It
his capital and from It directed the
slaying nnd looting wherever there was
anything to get that was worth bav
Ing. He laid waste in the most ruthless
manner some of the finest and richest
cities of what are uow Greece. Italy
Spain, France and all the territory
north of that, levying heavy tribute
everywhere und burning and killing
where tribute was not promptly paid
He conquered the powerful Hymn
tiue emperor, Theodosius. In 448. de
stroylng hundreds of gems of urchitee
turo und art. and compelled the em
peror to pay to him the last money
possible. He again laid waste ull the
eastern empires In 450 mid then gave
his attention to Gaul in the west with
an army said to have been 700.000
strong, but this Is thought b.v some
historians to be an exaggeration How
ever, that army was strong enough to
do Its vvttl In all that region. He then
made an attempt by force aud cunning
to detach Theodorlc. king of West
Goths, from his alliance with the Ito
mans under their general. Aetins; but.
failing In that, he gave battle to the
allies near Chalons, on the Cntalaiihin
fields, nnd there had his first real re
verse.
The allies failed to follow up their
victory, nnd the following year Attlln
and Ills savage hordes laid waste all
northern Italy and had arranged for
an assault on Rome, but he had Just
had an example of the prowess of the
Roman soldiers nnd when be heard that
they had concentrated there In great
numbers be desisted.
Arduous enmpaigns and Intemperate
living hud sapped his strength, and In
453, ou the very night when he mar
rlcd Ildiko, a Burgundian princess,
“the Scourge of God" was himself
scourged into another world.
An Error Perpetuated.
The compositor, who hus been ac
cused of many tlilDgs, seems really to
have been responsible for the fixing of
the festival of St Alban, the first Brit
ish martyr, on June 17 in the English
calendar. All other saints recognized
by the English nnd Roman churches
in common nre honored on the same
days In both calendars, but Id the
Roman calendar St Alban's dnv is
June 22. In all English prayer books
nlso, prior to 1662. St Albnn Is com
memornted on June 22. and the pres
eut discrepancy seems to have arisen
from the typesetter of the prayer book
of 1662 mistaking the X of XX11 for
V and rendering the date June XVII
—an error which has been perpetuated
ever since.-London Chronicle.
