TIRPITZ AND TERRORISM.

The U-boats are coming! At least so the Kaiser has informed the world. Thired of his meagre diet of English and French ships, the War Lord looks for new cannon-food, new worlds to conquer. To pursue the elusive Fall River liners is Wilhelm's latest ambition; to shell Revere would terrorize the Americans,--would soon end the war. It is indeed a rosy picture with which to lure on the terrible Teuton.

Yet we are confident that this new war zone will not be too happy a hunting ground. It is a long trip over here and not a comfortable one. The North Atlantic in winter is hardly a cheerful place for submarines; the coast is well patrolled, the State Guard mans the shores. Since the U-53 came to Newport our point of view has changed. If His Majesty will take our advice we suggest he keep away.

But, should he ignore us and send his pirates up the Charles, we are ready. The Regiment has its Krags, the Pup is in commission. So, stropping our bayonets, we shall stand alert. Bring them on!
