Cuero, Texas, Sept. l5.-Considerable
alarm was experienced acre yesterday
when il became known that Jack Carlisle,
machinist for the Cuero machine shops,
had failed 10 return the first Of the week
from a visit 10 relatives at Houston. His
family here thought he was still in Hous-
ton and Houston relatives thought he had
returned home, until uneasiness caused
Mrs. Carlisle 10 communicate with Hons
ton. Investigation BY relatives there re-
vealed that he had been seen TO pass
through the turnstiles al the station in
Houston Ia return home, and from the de-
scription given the train auditor, he re-
membered taking up Carlisle's ticket.
which was marked To Cuero. lie had $40
or $50 in small bills, which made an at
t~ractive and flashy roll, and lead to the
fear Of foul play. Further investigation
was brought 10 a close by news from other
relatives in Louisiana, where Carlisle had
formerly lived, announcing his arrival
there in a dazed condition. His brother.
who was here looking for any possible
clew hearing upon the disappearance, left
az once to bring Carlisle home. He ex-
presses the belief that he was doped and
robbed and that instinct carried him back
10 his old home.

COPY "REBEL YELL"
German Soldiers War Cry Compara-
BILE to Southern Battle Cry.

Edwin Emerson, staff correspond
ent of the New York World, writes
from Berlin that when the German
soldiers attack with the bayonet or
make a cavalry charge they yell
"Hurrah!" There are also some
other special war cries. Thus some
of the old Hussar regiments cry
"Hussah." while the uhlans when
they charge with their lances used
to shout "Ulla, ulla!" and still do so
in certain regiments. But these spe-
cial cries are the exception. "Hur-
rah!" is the rule.
According to the German newspa-
pers no foe can resist this cry OF
"hurrah!" Judging by some soldiers
letters from the front the sound OF
the German "hurrah!" would appear
to have the same nerve-racking ef-
feet on those who hear it from the
other side as did the rebel yell IN
the war between the states IN the
United States, or the blood curdllng
warhoop of the Sioux or Apacnes IN
the days of the Indian campaigns.
