GERMAN SOLDIERS
FLUSH BIC C0vEY
RUSSIAN ARMY
(By Associated Press.)

BERLIN, March 8.-A soldiers LEI
ter from the Eastern front describes
an effort of patrolling party to dis
cover whether there were any Rus
SLAMS in a forest in front Of the Ger
man position. With fixed bayonets a
handful men crept at night through
the woodland, thrusting the steel into
every thick bush, or throwing a flare
of light into them from their pocket
lamps.
They found no game" and were
emerging from the forest at the point
where they had entered it, when they
suddenly saw Russian sentinel be-
fore them in heavy fur-coat and cap.
He was half asleep Taking up the mar
rative here, the letter reads:
e seized the Russian by the lap
ell of his coat and swore at him in Pol
ish, Russian and German. Hands up,
we demanded, and he did it. One of US
watched over him while others made
an examination of the surroundings.
We found a cave, such as we build for
our sentries. We jabbed our bayonets
into the straw around the entrance. A
'non-com, after removing the rifles
which the unsuspecting Russians had
stacked near the entrance threw a
light into the cave and swore fright
fully Out of the dark came creeping
a dozen members of the lend Russian
landwehr, Tartars, Mohammedians,
and men from Kasan. At the point of
our bayonets they dropped to their
knees.
But suddenly we discovered we
were being fired upon by another
group of Russians nearby whose
presence we had not suspected. Driv-
ing our prisoners before US, we start
ed out of the woods to cross an open
meadow back to our lines. There was
whizzing of bullets about cur ears.
There could be no thought of trying to
defend ourselves. Only six Of our

BERLIN WOMEN
ARE ANXIOUS
ECONOM|ZE
(By Associated Press.)

BERLIN, March S.-Berlin is the
scene at this time of numerous meet
ings, largely attended by women Of
every class, at which ways and means
Of more economical living are dis
cussed by prominent physicians.
The women are being urged to cut
down the consumption of meat by at
least Is per cent and to resort more
to the use of milk The women are
asked to think of the men in the field
and the hardships they have to endure
if economy in eating seems TO be too
difficult.
One physician, speaking the other
night, likened the situation to that Of
the tourist, who perforce must at
times make meal from chocolate and
bread until more favorable circum-
stances arrive. He told his audience
that they were mere slaves to appetite
if they we're not able to elect easily to
eat less of the scarcer foods.
Soup in place of coffee for the early
morning breakfast is being urged by
some physicians, especially for adults
and then the omission of the German
second breakfast" to the consequent
saving of thousands of pounds of food
stuffs.

FRENCH B|RDMAN
SHOWS RECKLESS
BRAVERY IN AIR
(By Associated Press.)

LONDON, March 8.-Daring work of
the Frenchman Pegoud is described in
Scotch officers letter
1--WE often see fights in the air be-
tween Peguold and the German avia-
tors" he says. alone on his fast ma
chine, he manages to keep it flying
while he fires his machine gun. This
is no small feat, considering that he
must let go of his levers while firing.
He brought down three of the en-
emy's aeroplanes yesterday. One fell
within our lines, and the other two
dropped more or less damaged inside
the German trenches. Pegoud is the
most reckless man l have ever seen.
He really ventures too much, and l am
quite sure they will get him one of
these days"

FRENCH OFFICER PREFERS HIS
GUN To THE GIANT KRUPPS

ments of shell must fly, roughly,
straight-nothing will be hit that is
below a line extended out il a dag
onial direction from the sides of the
hole dug by the shell. In other words,
it is possible to be lying on the ground
quite close to the spot where a shell
has burst and to be untouched. A
horse has to be a yard or so farther
away, but even he soon gets out of the
zone of fire.
with the French shell it is different
The French shell is constructed to
richochet: it strike the ground and
bounces, only exploding when it is in
the air as the result of the bounce. The
explosion occurs when the shell is on
the ground, and there is no hole sur
face to protect a possible victim.
Our experience in the present war
seems to show that the French shapnel
bullet is more efficient than the Ger
man. The bullets of the rs shrapnel
she'll weigh II grams (slightly less
han half an ounce, whereas the sim
liar German bullet weighs only nine
grams. Experience seems to show
that bullet of at least eleven grams
is necessary to stop man advancing.
The effect of the bullet is of course
enormously increased by the high We
locity of the French shell. Bullets Of
our rs shrapnel strike at velocity OF
80 meters a second, whereas those OF
the corresponding German gun travel
at sixty meters. The energy of the
two bullets is in fact automatically
about to l in favor of the French.
From one general point of view, the
German artillery has long stood con-
demned in our eyes. In Germany there
has been for years divorce between
the artllerymen and the men who
make the guns. Every Improvement
with the Germans has had to originate
from Krupps, and there has thus been
disastrous hiatus between theory
and practice. With us 1t is different.
Our artillery has made its own gun.

TURKEY To REFORM
: HER SCHOOL SYSTEM
(By Associated Press.)

BERLIN, March Sin the midst of
war Turkey finds time to begin the re-
form if its school system and has
turned to Germany for a leader in the
movement The man selected for this
purpose is Professor Franz Schmidt,
who has hitherto had charge of bu-
reau of education in the German For
eign Office. He formerly conducted a
German high-school in Bucharest, and
he has been a close student of foreign
educational affairs. He is now to be
attached to the Turkish Ministry Of
Education. Apparently he will play a
role in the general educational life Of
Turkey similar to that played by the
German military instructors in the
Turkish army.

(By Associated Press.)

BOULOGNE, France, March S.-A
French artillery officer, who has been
at the front from the beginning of the
war, has sent to the newspapers an
account of the French "75" gun, which
he regards as the most successful all
round piece of artillery in use by any
army.
THE feature in which the gun has
its superiority" he writes, lis in the
rapidity of it's fire. This to some ex-
tent depends upon the division of labor
among the gunners, but even more up
on the mechanical properties Of the
gun. The designer has so arranged il
that no matter how the weapon is
pointed, the force of recoil passes
through the exact center of the beche
or anchor. In the German gun, the
force is directed not at the point Of the
beche, but at the point to the right or
left of it, with the result that the gun
tends to be slowed around and has to
be continually aimed afresh.
"A great virtue of the French rs
is the extent to which it resists deter
ioration. If you examine French shell
that has been fired at the end Of the
past six months of hard fighting, you
will find evidence that the guns rifiing
is almost as good and efficient as al
the beginning of the war This comes
as surprise to many people who have
heard of the rapidity with which naval
guns deterioriate, but the conditions
are, of course, different, as the veloc-
tiles needed in naval work make an
enormously greater demand upon the
naval gun.
"A great deal has been writer
about the deadliness of the French
shell fire and the relative inefFicienc!
of that of the German. Assuming tina
the shells of both guns explode, thu
French shell will have the advantage
for the following reason. The German
shell hits the ground and digs hole

prisoners could we keep with us. When
we finally reached our lines, we dis
covered from the men we had taken
that the place we had tackled was not
a sentry post, as we had thought, but
a protected position with trenches and
loopholes; and there were thirty Rus
SLAMS against us five with two other
Russian trenches close by. 1t was a
lucky escape for us to have discharged
our task and got away with our pris-
oners. We did not fire one shot. Our
captain gave US five dollars. / send

PRESIDENT WILSON
IS DOCTOR WILSON
To LONDON PAPERS

LONDON, March S.-The constant
reference in London papers to Presi-
dent Wilson as Doctor" Wilson is
undoubtedly not intended, as it somo-
times is in the United States, as a
slurring or sarcastic allusion to his
academic career. Robert Donald, the
editor of the London Chronicle, a
journal altogether friendly to the
United States, in whose editorial col
umns the title of Doctor" is constant
ly applied to the President, said today
that he had never supposed that the
title was other than most respectful
and he was confident no London pa
pers had the slightest intention of
minimizing the office or the respect
due it when they used this term.

TURKISH PRISONERS
HAVE SPECIAL CAMP
tBy Associated Press.)

CAIRO, March S.-Nearly 700 pris-
oners captured on February have
been sent from the barracks at Cairo
to the desert camp prepared for them
at Toura. Most of them were Turks
from Syria, with few Bedouins and
two Indians who were first captured
by the Turks, made to join their
forces and then surrendered at the
first opportunity to the British. Some
prisoners wore uniforms made on the
German model, others khaki, and
few were poorly clad. They seemed
not unduly fatigued by their march
across the desert, and the Egyptians
looked on glad of the fulfillment of the
prediction that If Turks came, It
would be as prisoners.
