AN INTERESTING TRIP FROM THE BREADLINE
TOTHE MUNICIPAL LODGING HOUSE


A shuffIing of feet, a tattoo on the
street, the gathering of coats, not
overcoats, just top coats, around fig
ures that shake with the chill of a
penetrating cold when the thermom-
eter is not far from the zero point.
The slow moving Of the winding
line that coils in and out like the
body of a snake when some, more
eager, or more hungry than others,
break the symmetry by trying to
reach the top sooner.
The reaching out Of a hand that
starts with an impulsive shoulder
movement and then seems to~grow
ashamed before it is fully outstretch-
ed, the closing Of fingers on a small
roll that would not fill the stomach
of a baby; the muttered thanks"
and sometimes the nothing but
shamed turning away of face of a
man who Ioathes this acceptance of
charity but has no choice; the tin
cup of black coffee, the stepping
aside and the deVouring of the
feast" and then perchance the
sinking away, or the quick move
ment to the end Of the long line in
the hope of getting just a little more
that is the bread line.
1t extended from Halsted street to
Union street last night, and for over
an hour it did not grow any smaller.
There is no talk; it is a silent ar
nv. The rolls are handed out in 81
Ience, the coffee is accompanied only
by the noise of the cup as it is placed
on the table.
And as the units leave the line they
go straight as an arrow to another
charity-the municipal lodging
houses.
It is the rule that they must go
first to the one on Union street,
where a small, thin-ipped, cold-eyed
man is in charge, has police officer

"You go over to Jackson boule-
ward, you go to Washington and Des-

crowded last night? No, we weren't.
Plenty of room.
"WeI, if anybody told you that
men were walking the streets they
didn't tell the truth, that's all. I've
nothing more to say"
And yet, in the bread line, a man
had half whispered to another man:
'"They kept me hanging around at
the Municipal until after one o'clock
and then they told me there wasn't
any room" ..
There are some cots for men to
sleep on in the Union street place;
but at Washington and Desplaines at
least three-fourths of the men sleep
on the floor, and they haven't even
blankets to throw over them.
DR.. Murray will tell you the reason
there are no blankets. 1t is because
it is impossible to get blankets in Chi
cago. Oh, you can get the SO kind,
but the kind the city would buy
why you would be surprised at the
trouble one has finding them any
where.
The city claims to pay $1,000 a
month rent for this place; it accom-
modates $3.50 men, and the men are
assigned to this place; where it is
necessary to sleep on the floor, be-
fore the Union is filed.

PLAYWRIGHT ACTS PART
 IN REAL TRAGEDY OF WAR

LONDON, Oct 2.-One of the most vivid accounts of an episode of war comes from the Lokal Anzeiger. It is a letter from Paul Oskar Hoscker, a Berlin playwright, now serving as captain of the reserve. His play, "A Nation in Arms" is being given at the Berlin opera house.
 He describes mission on which he was dispatched to search for arms in Belgian viii lages, in which shots had been fired by civilians on German troops. His lnstruc- tions were to summon the villagers to de- liver up their arms and those in whose pos session arms were found, after they declared that they had none, were to be instantly shot
 Describing a visit to Jungbusch, he says that at one house were found an old man, a woman and girl of 13.
 "Then terrible thing happened A ser geant and private dragged young fellow out of the house They had found him hiding among the straw in the loft. He had

 "Who is this youth? 7 l asked the old man. As if struck by lightning, all three fell on their knees, waiEng. The woman groaned, He is my son. For Gods sake, you are not going to kill him?' and the little girl sobbed as if her heart would break. The prisoner tried to escape, but was put up against the wall by the men.

It was felt however. could not be taken lightly His lordship did not, indeed pre- dict that the war would last three years. He did however, refer to plans for con tinuing the fight beyond the enlistment term of volunteers now in the field, re marking casually that 1t was impossible to tell how long the conflict might last.
 What would be the effect of its indefinite continuation was much discussed, That three wears of it would mean the practi- callv complete overthrow of European civ ilization seemed to be the general opinion among men whose views are respected by the British public There were military men, tinanciers and politicians who queS- toned. however, the possibility of so long drawn-out fight, even in the face of Lord kitcheners expression.
 The soldiers argued that modern ammu- milton could not be provided for it, and that if it should continue beyond a matter of months there would at any rate have to be a return to the use of black powder and more primitive weapons. Flnanclers declared it would be utterly impossible to find money for keeping such armies as the
