The very offer of a compromise from the Democrats would make it look like somthing was wrong somewhere ? Another negro goes up for re tailing! Let the good work con tinue.

Appeal From Districts Not Yet Helped; (Special Cable Distpateh to Sun) London, Dec. 11.? The repre sentatives at Rotterdam of the American Commission for Relief in Belgium have received a heart inent residents of Blankenbergi on behalf of thirteen Belgian seacoast communes which hith erto have not been assited. The two Blankenberge residents ex plain that these communes first suffered' through the influx oi refugees from the interior, Whom they helped as much as possible, then from the Germans who made severe requisitions on the already depleted resources of the districts. All communica tions of these communes, with Bruges, have been stopped. "We are deprived of ever y thing" the spokesman said. "No one knows whether; we will eat tomorrow or not. We ask in th; name of humanity for help. J. F. Bogrgs, wood and coal for B; C. Ely, Baltimore .... $5.00 f jail - . .-. $20.00 J?. K. Thorns, N. Y. ... .5.00 C. A. and J. H. Bristow, lunu Miss J. A.

She was from NnmnT- where she had pased her whole! me. ner little home had be;n razed to the ground. "When I left it the last time, monsieur.
