UNE ~ the kaiser received 0 tole
gram from Field Marshal Won Mao
kensen, will present the city Of
Lemberg to your majesty before
q July l." Four days later the Teuf
tonic allies were madly celebrating the
capture Of Galicia's capital and the feat
Of the bulldog Of Galicia" was on every
tongue. The brilliant exploits Of Won
Kluck and even of old Hindenberg were
surpassed and as a popular idol Won MAO
kenser eclipsed all the rest Of the Ger.
man leaders.
In many ways, Won Mackensen IL an
extraordinary man. In the first place, he
is not Of the military caste. His father
was a well-to-do country squire. Macken-
sen did not attend the war college. He
entered the army as a oneyear volunteer
In the Franco-Prussian war and arose to
be second lieutenant At the close Of
the war he let the army to complete his
education. A few years later, however,
he rejoined the colors and soon became
known as a cavalry commander Of dis
tinction. When he finally entered the
war college 1t was as an instructor. Like
the child prodigy Of the music room. he
never took a lesson in his life"
This Is the man that drove the Russian
bear from Galicia and Bukowina, cleared
Hungary Of the foe that had been making
itself at home for ten months, freed the
Carpathfan passes OF the invading hOrdes
and chased the sorely wounded bear back
to his own lair. Now they call him the
Bulldog of Galicia."
Mackensen's drive through Galicia ex-
ceeds In military brilliancy Won Kluck's
never-to-beforgotten rush on Paris, when
the terrible right wing of the German In
vaders jumped fifteen to twenty miles q
day straight at the French capital. Won
Kluck's rush failed because Of its very
intensity. The soldiers were three days
ahead Of their supplies. So the rush was
stopped, moro through the exhaustion Of
the German troopers than through the
superiority Of the foe.
Mackensen, on the other hand. started
slowly and seemed to gain speed and
momentum as he progressed And the
front covered by Mackensen exceeded
many times the arena through which Won
Kluck passed. Won Kluck had q few
army corps; Mackensen commanded close
to two million men. Won Kluck passed
through q country unorganixed for milf
tary purposes. Mackensen drove through
. territory. parts Of which had been held
for months by the invaders and fortified
and strengthened with every military
contrivance.

picked for the Job when General Won
Falkenhayn, chief Of the German general
star, and Field Marshal Conrad Won
Hoetzendorn, chief of the Austrian gen.
eral staff. decided at a conference in.
Berlin that the time had come for driv-
ing the Bear back into his own country.
So Mackensen was given supreme COM
mand Of the greatest army assembled

due Greece at the head of three million
men, legend and Plutarch tell us. Two
million men Of the Austrian, Prussian
and Bavarian first line were picked for

August Won Mackensen. son of a country
squire who brought him up to be college
professor.
Not only were the Russians cleared
from Galicia, but the very foundations
OF the Russian military system were
shattered At the height Of Mackensen's
drive. even before Lemberg had been
given back to the Austrians, the allies
were startled by the news that the resig-
nation of General Soukhomlinow had
been demanded by the car. It was re-
ceived. even though Soukhomlinow is the
man who eliminated so much Of the graft
that permitted little Japan to thoroughly
spank the Bear. Az minister of war, he
had built up the military machine Of all

It is said that 400 generals have been
removed from command or denoted since
the war began. OF these, the far greater
percentage belong to France. In one
swoop, Joffre retired 40 generals soon
after the invasion. Instead, however. Of
replacing them with younger men, Jonre
has selected his new commanders mostly
from the lists of the retired. It's an old
mans war. One brilliant and popular
French general, Albert d'Amade. has been
superseded three times and only the
friendship Of his wife with Madam Poin-
care keeps him in the army at all. Joffre
removed him rs division commander after
the retreat from Mons, later took him
away from Alsace and recently obtained
his withdrawal from the command Of the

NEW YORK DAY ~ DAY.
ny CHARLES HENRY kpAMa

New Yerk. July it.-"If a woman
develops her muscles. will she not
lose In feminine grace and loneliness
what she may gain In strength"
That Is the question which one
woman asked and which Is doubtless
dormant In many women's minds.
The fact that the query was answered
affirmatively during a long period Of
years constitutes one OF the reasons
why. by more or less common con-
sent. women were barred from ath-
letic activity until comparatively
recent date.
Even the small girl not out OF pima
fores was a victim to the feeling that
physical weakness was somehow
synonymous with physical beauty In
the case Of the female sex. II was
not her happy privilege to 20 swim
ming and camping. to climb fences
and trees. and to share In her broth
er's rough outdoor games. She must
sit In the house. playing with dolls
and sewing patchwork. and. as a
young lady OF fifty years ago. croquet
and archery were the only athletic
pastimes permitted to her. No won
der she was called the weaker sex,
Now We have changed all that.
Many women who alternate between
the gymnasium and the tennis court
are living denials OF the theory that
trained. strong muscles are incompat-
ible with womanly beauty and grace.
And as I have said before. the stout
woman with her masses and rolls Of
surplus flesh Is the fiabbily muscled
woman. do not think she Is gen
orally held to be beautiful anywhere
outside Of a Mahommedan paradise.
New York. July i3.-There are
many summer sports which are as
helpful to the woman below par ply
sically as they long ago proved them
selves to the man in like condition.
And as I cannot tell you too often.
the stout. apparently robust woman
is very often. II not always. in poor
health

Bone collection
Of DR.. N. FRANCIS


Years and decades ana centuries
ago the Brazos river territory was a
favorite haunt Of mammoths and
mastodons. elephants and other I'm
mense creatures. Evidences Of the
presence OF these prehistoric animals
In the Brazos river territory have
been found by DR.. Mark Francis.
head OF the department Of veterinary
science at the A. 4 N. College Of
Texas.
DR.. Francis. through diligent
search and expenditure Of large sums
Of money personally. has collected .
wonderful array Of bones and skele-
tons Of these animals. Stored away
In q museum on the campus are lit
orally hundreds Of molars, vertebrae
and bones OF these wonderful AMI
mails, which constitute one OF the best
collection Of this kind In the South.
Passage Of time has left but slight
imprint on the bones Of these mon
sters. and though decade after decade
has passed since these animals were
seen by human eye. many OF the
skeletons are not decomposed. put
are In splendid condition.
The recent discovery Of . new type
Of horse 10 perhaps DR.. Francis great
est achievement In this line. In
honor Of HIS work In preserving the
remains Of these monsters, the horse
discovered by DR.. Francis mas been
named "Equus Francisci" by DR.. o.
p. Hay, research associate Of the
Carnegie Institution OF Washington.
A full description OF the Equus Fran
cIscI Is found In the proceedings OF
the United States National Museum.
The horse 10 described as a small
horse Of the pleistocene period. with
the enamel Of the cheek teeth In
simple pattern--a new species entire
". The head OF the horse was found
In a well near Wharton. at q depth
Of about twenty-five feet. DR.. Fran
els learned Of the discovery and went
to Wharton. where he found the head
Of the horse practically intact The
remains were sent to natural his
tory establishment In New York for
restoration. and from there were sent
to the National Museum.
Most all Of DR.. Francis collection
has been obtained from points near
the A. q NJ. College. One entire
femur OF a mammoth. q half dozen
tusks OF prehistoric elephants. ribs
lower jaws. the SHELTON OF giant
sloth, dozens OF teeth-these are Just
a few OF the collection which DR.
Francis has been gathering quietly
for years.
Il Is a hobby with him. The rela
ton OF the prehistoric animals to the
present domestic animals has been a
topic OF much study for DR.. Francis
and he will travel for miles to look
at a specimen unearthed by well
diggers or others. In the proceedings
OF the National Museum high tribute
Is paid to Or. Francis for his untir'
ing efforts Ia not only collecting
specimens. but In gathering all OF the
information possible about the find
ing OF these specimens and soil for
nation nearby.
In the museum In his classrooms
he has hundreds OF freaks. Two
headed calves. a twoheaded colt. a
calf with four front feet. two heads
and two necks. are interesting fea'
lures in this collection. In addition
he has specimens showing the effects
OF every disease that comes to live
stock.-Galvesto News.
