heart. Eileen Miss Gauntier,) who run
afoul of the British soldiers and are
imprisoned on a charge of high trea-

narrow escapes, he swims the lake and
hides in an old cave, where Eileen
visits him daily with food.
At last he and Eileen are captured,
tried and imprisoned. Urged by Ell
leen's frantic mother the village priest
smuggIes a file to Marty, and that
night. after cutting away his bars,
Mary stuns the sentinel and by climb
ing the ivy covered wall to Eileen's
window, rescCes her also.
They are married by the old priest
and the Eext morning are on their way
to America, the land of the free.
There is an undercurrent Of sup

this gripping Warmers Feature that

is accorded superb support by Jack j.
Clark and a company of considerable
size, including almost the entire popu-
lation of an Irish village. You can't

ARTILLERY HORSES
Show Marvellous Intelligence and
 Quickness in Adapting Themselves


 Horses chosen for the military ser vice, said an old artilleryman. show marvellous intelligence and quickness in adapting themselves to it's requirements Every artilleryman knows that they learn the bugle calls and the evolutions sooner as rule. than the average recruit.
 They quickly acquire uniform gait. which is about the same as the route step or usual marching step. If the horses did not fall habitually into the same gait as the infantry there would be varying distances between the differ ent arms of the service. In the drills in the artillery service the horses will pre- serve their alignment as well as the in- fantry ranks.
 ..'lt Is remarkable how quickly the army horse learns the bugle calls and their significance, Let the first note of the feed or water call be sounded and instantly there will be stamping. kicking and neighing among the horses impa- tient for that call to be answered. "Once during storm at night in our camp our horses were seized with such terror that those of nearly every battery 1 broke loose and went scattering about in
 
 wild rush by the artllerymen to capture hor ses for use. All was excitement, and the still alarmed hoi ses refused to be taken.
 An officer ordered the bugler to sound the feed call. He gave the call, and n- stantly horses from every direction came dashing to that battery and the equine discipline was soon restored
