DESCRIBE WAR
Safety of Spectators Height
ems Effect of Terrible
Scenes on Screen.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Dec 3.-It is
strange sensation to sit safely in
quiet, darkened theatre, and to watch
the hideous drama OF war enacted be-
fore ones eyes--to see the wreck and
ruin and desolation; to see the shells
bringing death and destruction; to see
men go coolly about the business of
Staying one another, and to know that
what you are watching is actual WAR.
This is what hundreds Of people are
doing daily where the Belgian war pic
lures are being shown.
We had become used to motion
pictures where the producers Wed
with one another to produce wonder
full effects, where battles" we're
staged. and cities were destroyed"
Very wonderful some of these pictures
were. but when they are compared
with real battles and real ruin and
destruction, they lack force.
Pictures Arc Real Thina,
The Belgian war pictures are the
real thing.
There is no posing there, no striving
after effect; that lad in the uniform,
who smiles boyishly into the camera
and into your very eyes and salutes
as he marches past-that boy is play
ing no part; he is going to the defense
of his country and all too probably,
he is now listed among the missing"
or lies dead in Belgian trench, The
utter terror and bewilderment on the
face of that Belgian woman, as she
flees before the encoming Germans,
clasping her baby to her breast and
glancing back over her shoulder in
terror at the bursting shells-that is
no clever piece Of actingi it is real
terror,
The pictures have strange effect
On the audience. The people who
crowd the theater talk in whispers. 1t
is no uncommon thing to see some
woman wipe tears from her eyes, or
to hear some expression of sympathy
burst inVoluntarily from seme mans
lips.

Watson p. O'Neal, city councilman n
from the sixth ward, living on South
Thirteenth street, was made the vic
tim Of smooth crook a few days ago,
it was learned today.
ONeal received a telegram from Day
ton to which the name Of his brother
ln-law, George Childers of Lincoln,
Neb.. was signed asking him to for
ward at once by telegraph $35 to Day
ton, o., it being explained in the tele-
gram that Childers had lost his purse
on train while enroute to New York
Mr.. O'Neal at once wired the money
waving the formality of having the tel
egraph company identify the sender Of
the telegram.
Mr.. O'Neal thought no more about
the matter he says, until his father-in-
law came from Covington, KY, to visit
him He asked O'Neal If a man both
of them knew to have a bad record
had been in the city lately. Mr.. O'Neal
said he had not seen him. Then his
father-in-law remarked that he thought
the man might have been here as he
had received a telegram from him re.
Gently asking that he send him
O'Neals Richmond address. It then
dawned upon O'Neal that he had been
the victim of a clever swindle O'Neal
says the same man secured money re-

to the police but no clue as to the
whereabouts Of the forger has been Sc

Richmond merchants are expecting

Merchants say there win be less

Practically the only Christmas buy

KNOX DENIES RIGHT
TO TAKE R. THAW
FROM HAMPSHIRE
TBY LEASED WlRE.J

WASHINGTON, Dec. 3.-Denying
the right Of the state Of New York to
extradite Harry K. Thow from New
Hampshire, Philander c. Knox, former
Secretary of State, today filed brief
in the supreme court in behalf of
Thaw. The brief states there can be
no doubt that Thaw is legally insane,
hence he cannot be returned from one
state to another in extradition pro-
ceedings to stand trial for crime. Knox
discusses the legal question involved
and argues that extraldtion proceed
ings MAY not be used to accomplish
anything else than the return of a fl-
gitive criminal for trial and punish
ment for his crime
He refers to the statements made by
opposing counsel as to Thaw's wealth
and his use of it in defending himself
and adds:
ut is we'll fer him that he has funds
to defend himself against the limitless
resources of the empire state of this
union, all of which resources were at
the command of those prosecuting
htp."

Never In the history Of warfare has
there been massed along a battle front
such masses Of powerful artillery as
the Germans have concentrated there
to support their lines from Ostend to
the French border 1t is estimated that
there are at least 100000 German sol
diers holding the line from Ostend to
Ypres.
Every section Of the 300-mile battle
line now presents a scene of activity.
At some points infantry is engaged
in attack and counter attack, and at
others the fighting is being carried on
by artillery alone. Every development
still supports the theory that the al
YES are in the first stages Of a general
offensive movement. Their attacks
all along the line enable them to de-
termlne the weak places and to ascer-
tain to what extent certain positions
have been strengthened.
A deadlock has developed in the
Woevre district. Both sides hold
strong positions there. At some points
the trenches are only thirty-five to
forty yards apart.

Along the Aisne the French, British
and Turcos are making heavy sacri-

some Of the positions they bave occu-

sphere, according to the official state
ment of the French war office this
afternoon. The allies have resumed
dyke cutting operations in West Flan-

port and to the south of Ipres.
"The inundatiOn Of the country ex-
tends now to the south Of DiXmude.
Between the Lys and the Somme the
village Of AK Noulette, to the west
of Lens, has been violently bombarded.
Calm prevails all along the front from
the Somme to the Aisne and in the
Champagne region.
"In the Argonne we have repulsed
BeverN attacks Of the enemy and we
have made some slight gains. In the
Woevre region the German artillery

WENGERD RECITAL
ATTESTS SUCCESS
OF EARLHAM PLAN
A Representative Audience
Hears Chicago Baritone in
First Concert of Series for
Music Lovers.

The success Of the movement in
Earlham college to give concerts free
to the public was attested last even
ing when an audience that filled Lind
ley hall. representative of both the
student life and the musical interests
of the city, heard Charles S. Wengerd
of Chicago in song recital.
Mr.. Wengerd is the pOSsessor OF

best in the middle of the register, but
is primarily an intellectual singer. his

was inclusive in character. being indie
ative of his appreciation of the in
spirational sources not alone OF the
composer but of the writer of the
word
A program which ranges from Men
delssohn to Cadman and includes songs
from such diverse sources as Leon
cavallo, Schurmann. Grieg and Tschal-
kowsky, must call for much versatility
and a degree of virtuosity, and that
Mr. Wengerd is a musician OF artistic
thoroughness was evident.
The familiar "Prologue' from Pag-
liacci. almost always included in
concert program of this character, was
Mr.. Wengerd's first number, followed
by Schumann's 1.-TWO Grenadiers,' both
calling for more or less dramatic pre-
sentation and always interesting in
showing the calibre of singeSs voice.
Charming always are the songs of
Cadman, especially From the Land of
the Sky Blue Water" which was one
Of Mr. Wengerd's most successful pre-
sentations, THE White Dawn Is Steal
ing," being the other Cadman num-
Der and one appeciatively interpreted.
Danny Dever," another favorite
number with baritones, was on the pro-
gram, and Sidney Homer's delightful
Banjo Song" used with such effect
by Carl Morris as an encore number
here year ago, also appeared.
Not the least enjoyable feature Of
the recital was the delightful accom-
panying of Miss Laura CASTOR, head Of
the department OF music in Earlham.

been renting the use Of a horse, an
expense which runs from $225 to $3.50

it. The bed has to be somewhat long
to accommodate the poles and other
instruments"

The Light, Heat & Power company
today formally notified the city that
it intended to exercise it's option to
renew for a period Of ten years to the
joint dam contract which was entered
into by that company, the city. the
traction company and the Starr Piano
company. The city has declined to do

dam, as 1t had an excellent well, but
was renewing the contract to protect
itself against unforeseen emergencies.
John F. Thompson today presented
his resignation as city forester. R. S.
Spray, graduate Of the Purdue
school of forestry, was then appointed
to succeed him. Spray will receive

following letter to the board:
I'm 1911 l had the honor of being
appointed City Forester and during
the time from then until now l have
done what my time would permit me
to do in the way of writing in the
local papers upon the care Of trees and
in giving advice upon that subject
whenever called upon. I have been
very glad to do this at all times.
Thompson Resigns.
"A few days ago | called at your
office and had talk with Mr.. Mar
latt about young man, r. S. Spray,
who was desirous Of coming to Rich
mond to do such work as would de-
volve upon a city forester. If you ap-
prove of his plan and his proposition
l will gladly resign as city forester
and will feel that the work has passed
into very capable hands. Mr.. Spray
is a young man anxious to succeed
a graduate of Purdue and has special
lied in the work which he proposes to
do. In a letter to me DR.. Stanley
Coulter commends Mr.. Spray very
highly.
Let me take this opportunity, gen.
tlemen, to thank you for your courtesy
in refusing to appoint another forester
before receiving the resignation Of
your former one, although l had
imagined my time had expired when
the new administration came in"

RAR1S, Dec. 3.-As the result of a
dSaxy bombardment with new heavy
ms recently rushed to the West Flan-
0G1s front, the Germans have been
Rble to make progress at D1xmude.
Uhere is ground for the belief that
the invaders have regained their foot
hold on the western bank of the User
at this point. Fresh British troops are
being rushed to reinforce the allies
lines west Of Dixmude, particularly in
the region Of Lampernisse, which is
under terrific atillery fire from the
gigantic German howitzers.
(Note-Several days ago an unoffi-
cial report from the north stated that
the Germans were falling back from
Dixmude, but this is flatly contra
dicted In the official war office bulle-
tin issued Just before midnight
Part Of the official announcement
says TN Belgium a violent lombard
ment OF Lampernisz to the west Of
Dixmude has taken place" Lamper-
nisz is about four miles from Dixmude
and the fact that it is being shelled
shows that the allies have fallen back

Dixmude.
