WOUNDED FRENCHMEN
. ARRIVE IN NEW YORK
Three Men Tell Thrilling Stories of
Their Experiences in Fight
ing Against Germans
BY Associated Press

New York, Nov. 9.-Three soldiers,
all discharged from the French army
because of disability and all bearing
wounds which showed they had been
in the thick of the fighting, arrived
here to-day on board the steamship
Rochambeau, from Havre. They were
George Pierlot and Leon Leblot, on
their way TO their homes in Canada;
ana John Rosenbem, returning to his
home in Holbrook, Mass.
Pierlot and Leblot were wounded in
the defense of Rheims. Leblot said
that in the hand-to-hand fighting
there he received a bayonet wound in
his side and was carried to the rear
While n Sister of Charity, whom he
knew only as Anna, was binding his
wound, a German bullet killed her
and her body fell across him. Leblot
later returned and was twice wound
ed in one leg. Then he quit.
The Germans used the bodies of
their dead as barricades and we had
to climb over Them" said Leblot.
Pierlot received a saber thrust in his
left shoulder before Rheims. He said
that the artillery opened the battle
and rained shells on the opposing lines
for three hours. Then the men closed
in and fought hand-to hand for three
hours.
Killed Seven Germans
Rosembem at Muelhausen lost his
rife and was slashed in the arm with
a saber. "uBt / found n blacksmiths S
knife on the battlefield" he said, "and
killed seven German with it before [
was again wounded and put out of
action"

architect, who said that he was twice
arrested and twice sentenced to death,
once by the French and once by the
Germans, also was passenger. He
gained his freedom and meeting Miss
Florence Lacava, once his schoolmate,
in France, married her. He brought

Like Ragtime Singing? Here's
The Girl That Can Sing EN-

Where is the man, woman or child
who doesn't enjoy the happy swing
of ragtime?
There's a little girl at the Orpheum
Theater this week who has such a
clever way of singing the popular
have every confidence that she will
help to give the vaudeville house one
of the biggest weeks of it's reason.
Her name is Ruth Roye and her size
isn't much bigger than her name, but
her standing on the vaudeville cir
cutie is just that big that she went
to the Palace Theater in New York
with a one weeks contract and re-
mained there seven weeks before they
would let her go.
Miss Roye isn't exactly the head
liner at the Orpheum this week be-
cause there's musical comedy act
there called The Lawn Party" that
occupies the distinguished position Of
top-liner, and there's a big troupe of
Arabs there too, but Ruth says she's
going to give each of these big acts
a run for their money and she'll make
the town give her credit for being
the headllner anyway. .....
A girl who can so endear herself
to the hearts of vaudeville fans that
she remains in one theater for a
whole week. ought to be able to make
folks sit up and listen alright, and
that's what Ruth proposes to do in
Harrisburg.

s.fuses sehool Funds to Farmers.

Denver.-State Treasurer Leddy has
refused to apportion uninvested state
school funds to the counties OF the
state for loans to farmers, following
the receipt of letter directing him to
do so from volney T. Hoggatt, regis
ter of the state land board. He takes
the stand that he is an executive Of
ficer, that he is held responsible un-
der bonds of 100000 for the funds.
and that no appointive officer has the
right to "direct" him to do anything
with the state moneys. The demand
of Hoggatt was made on the ground
that the state constitution and the
, farmers loan law require him to d.
rect the treasurer to apportion the I'M
invested school funds for the purpose
of loans. He made a similar demand
upon Mrs. Mary C. c. Bradford, state
superintendent of schools. 1t is prob

WITHDRAWAL OF RADIuM LANDS
Protested by Governor az Attempt to
lnjure State.

lnJurc STATE.
Denver.-Colorado protested against
the proposal of Secretary Of the Inte-
rtor Lane to withdraw all lands from
the public domain, believed to contain
radium. Thomas r. Henahen, state
mine commissioner, addressed letter
to Secretary Lane protesting against
the plan, and Governor Ammons is out
spoken in his opposition. Mining men
throughout the state. 1t is thought, will
voice their objections.
"Ii the plan becomes effective" said
Henahen. 'it will paralyze Colorados
most promising future resource-the
valley and in Gilpin county, from
which radium now is extracted"
Fear Of monopoly Of radium bear.
ing lands by foreign capital is the
reason given by Secretary Lane for
his proposal to take the action. He
points out that three-fourths Of the
radium produced in the world has
come from the United States and ex-
tracted in Europe, and the biggest
field known is Colorado. With this
condition American physicians are
Obliged to pay whatever price the
European chemists want to charge.
Only two grams, held at $240.0e0. can
be found in America. He wants to
shut off European chemists and spec
ulators until steps are taken to ex-
tract the element from the ores by
American chemists.
In p statement made by Commission
er Henahen, he says that Secretary
Lanes proposal to guard against for
eign monopoly Of the valuable ore Is
commendable, but that Colorado will
suffer the worst setback 1t has had In
the last two decades when develop
ment of mineral resources is con-
cerned.
"The policy Of Withdrawing lands.
invoked against Colorado in the past"
said Governor Ammons. "ls the most
vicious thing which we have had to
contend. 1t has resulted in cheating
us out CT at least 250,O00 more persons
In the state that there are today"

Says FeebIe-Minded Should Not Wed

Denyer-The sterilization OF all
feeble-minded, or. II this is not feas-
lille, the segregation of them on the
ground that recovery is impossible for
this class, is the chief recommended
ton of Dr. A. P. Busey. superintendent
of the State Home for Mental Defec-
tives, in the annual report of the In
,stitution made to Governor Ammons.
Il Or. Busey declares. in support OF
his sympathy with the well-known
theory of scientists:
"This unfortunate class accumulates
because 1t is impossible to restore
feeble-minded person to normal condi-
tion and by reason of the fact that he
cannot be restored he should be kept
I'm an institution indefinitely and not
he turned into the world as graduate
and permitted to marry and perpetu-
ate his kind.
.ln years gone by institutions for
this class of persons took pride In
graduating as many as possible and
would turn them out into the world
to multiply.
This error Is being corrected as far
as possible by holding them indefinite
ly in institutions provided for their
care and protection,
at is needless to relate how feeble
minded persons will multiply If given
the opportunity. as they are the most
prolific in reproduction of any class
known.
Therefore, colonization, steriliza-
tion and other well known methods
should be authorized to check their
increase"
A bill. providing for law to fulfill
the aims of the above recommenda-
tions, was drawn by DR.. Busey and in
troduced in the last Legislature, but
was killed.
Thirty.three inmates have been
cared for by the institution during the
last year. according to the report; OF
these twenty-three are men and ten
women.
