WAR PLAYP PRESENTED
IN ENGLISH CAPITAL
BY BELGIAN ACTORS
Aims to Give Belgium View Of
Life in Brussels under
German OCCUPATION. 3.

Correspondence OF Associated Press).
LONDON, Feb. 1S.-The first serious
play founded on the war has Just been
produced here. 1t is by o Belgian au-
thor and Is played by a company OF
Belgians in French. 1t. is Jean Fran
co.'s Fonson's ia Kominandatur.r The
play aims to. give. from the Belgian
ylewpo INT, an ideal OF life I'M Brus-
sells under German occupation. Jadot,
the oldest employe OF the war Office,
has been persuaded to remain at the
post of honor In order to receive the
enemy, although no would have pre-
ferred to have rejoined his battery a,
the front.
Siegfried Weller, who has worked
himself into Jadot's confidence before
the war and aspires TO marry the
Belgfan's pretty daughter, Catherine,
denounces the old man as. q SPY to
the commanding general. Jadot is
taken with several hundred others to
detention quarters near the comman-
der's Office.
Things look black for old Jadot, but
he Is saved through the Intervention
Of an invalid German official with a
big and Fsympathetic. heart. "This
scene. = says ionelof the London critics,
"is not only one OF the most realistic,
but perhaps the most moving seen IN
years on our stage"
Jadot's daughter. has meanwhile
sent her tiance Pierre to the army.
Then Siegfried comes las the bearer
of the news that Antwerp has fallen
and Pierre is dead. Catherine kills
Siegfried with a knife because he has
seemed to take pleasure In telling Of
the death Of his rival. 81 q

BIGGEST ENGINE
mall HISTORY
IS TESTED
In the Coal FIELDS around Blue.
field and It Makes Perect
Performances.

BLUEFIELD, Feb. 13.-What was
a day dream OF q great inventor has
Just been realized by a test made here
on the most powerful electric loco
motive ever built. Fourteen thous-
and horsepower was used to start a
single full tonnage train, while nearly
eight thousand was used to propel 1t,
on the Elkhorn division OF the Norfolk
& Western railroad which has Just
been electrified.
These giant locomotives were built
especially to haul the heavy freight
trains over the steep mountain grade
OF this division.
Move Long Trains.
The locomotives are used on each
train, one at each end, because other
wise the enormous strain on the car
coupling from concentrating at one
point, the enormous amount OF energy
required to operate the train would
be dangerous. Each locomotive weighs
270 tons; or over ! 200, 900 pounds per
train. Their capacity exceeds that Of
any steam or electric locomotive ever
built, or enough to move Z a 2o0-caf
train, or one . miles long, on level
track.
The train moved by these locomo-
tives weighed nearly 1900 tons and
consisted OF cars each carrying 100
tons Of coal. 1t was started and
handled with perfect ease on the two
per cent grade OF what is known as
one of the most difficult pieces of con-
struction in America.
Hold Train Down Grade.
A test was also made on the cleo
trio braking of the train down the
mountain grade, resulting in the cleo
trio engines holding the train at a
steady speed without the use Of the
train brakes This Is accomplished by
the mechanical energy of the train on
down grade being transformed into
electric energy by the motors actins
as generators This energy Is then
returned to the system for use by
other trains This II the frst time
that this system Of regathfnk energy
has been put into use infthiss country
and e destined to be- far reaching in
is effect. y

going WEST
Is a Phrase Used by English
Soldiers as Slang
for Death.

Correspondence OF Negotiated Press j
LONDON, Feb, 3.-For the last few
weeks a controversy has been going
on in the public forums Of the news
papers as to the origin ofsthe soldiers
phrase, going west" as ephonious
slang for death" Antiquafians,
philologists and literary men have
come forward with explanations, trac-
ing the phrase svariouslS to Druid
mythology, Anglo-Saxon cofruptions
and verses from the Spoets. But q
young officer now claims the follow
ing prosaic solution as the real one.
So far from being ancient, the oftic-
ef writes that going westn is quite
modern. During the annual nianoeu-
:yers at Aldershot some years ago. he
says, q monocled stan officer gaiiopei
