 The field marshal said there had been much talk about slackers-that is, per sons doing literally nothing to help their country-but that this should not be exaggerated, for he believed the rcsidum of absolute do nothings' was relatively small.
 Lord Kitchener particularly ad- dressed himself to the persons now en- gagged in patriotic or other useful work who found in this work an excuse for not joining the army
 It is not for me to tell you your duty; that is a matter for your con science.' said Lord Kitchener. but make up your minds and do so quickly and be certain your so-called reason is not selfish excuse"

plosives had failed to shake the mo-
rale of the German forces, though it
had knocked thier intrenchments
about their ears.
They would not retreat. It was
not the tradition of the foreign legion
to retire. But riddled and confused
the whole line doubled upon itself and
dissolved into little groups and clus-
tiers. It edged sidewise along the
German front and sought the shelter
of one or.two unchanged houses that
had escaped the hostile artillery.
From among these a hundred Ger
mans Ieaped forward to meet the ap-
preaching DICTIONARIES. A hand-to-
hand fight followed. Jimmy found
himself engaged with huge fellow,
wearing tattered helmet, whose
spike emerged through it's khaki COW
ering. The fellow disappeared sud-
denly and he found himself jabbing
.viciOusly at the air.
Suddenly a shot was fired at him
from an old barn. It grazed his cheek,
and Jimmy rushed into the barn.
1t was half full of moldy hay. A
German was upon the other side Of,
the central mass. Round and round
the hay they lodged, Jimmy after the
German, then the German after
Jimmy, each trying to get point of
vantage from which to shoot down
the other. .
Painting, exhausted, they halted,
one on either side of the haystack.
Jimmy waited. Presently he saw the
rife barrel of the German begin to
protrude through a loose part Of the
stack. Quietly he lodged, and the
discharge of the powder blackened
his tunic as the bullet sped across the
barn and buried itself in the opposite
wall.

inside the barn. Jimmy listened as q
cat listens for a mouse. Suddenly
the German called from behind the
hay:
"Kamerad! Pardon! Surrender to
me and you shall not he harmed. You
see, my friend, we shall wait here an
night unless you surrender"
That's all very we'll" answered
Jimmy, ''but suppose you surrender
to me-"
l.. eve are not allowed to surrender"
answered the German plaintiVely.
You had better surrender. Think it
over! I will wait ten minutes~
Jimmy could see the tip Of the Ger
mans bayonet. It was moving, not
up and down, but backward and for
ward in a manner which seemed
somehow familiar to Jimmy. The
movements were unconscious, and it
was evident that the fellow was la
boring under strong emotion.
He spoke again. Suppose we both
come out into the open," he said. 81
shall count a hundred While 1 am
counting you will turn your back and
walk away. When I have finished
counting hundred viii call, and
we will both fire"
Nothing doing" said Jimmy.
The German uttered an oath and
leaped from behind the haystack.
Jimmy was just in time to parry the
Ieveled blade. He struck it up and
drew back for a lunge. Then he look
ed into his opponents face, and the
recognition was mutual
''Katz! The delicatessen mani" he
cried.
Jimmy Penderby% cried Katz.
Gosh! What are you doing here,
Mr.. Penderby?"
ooh, just looking round, said jim
my. "Say, 1 knew it was you, Katz,
from the way you used that bayonet.
Are you going to surrender"

 Imprisonment

Venice, February 20.-(via London, s:2o p. m.)-The recent appeal issued to farm CTS by the minister of agriculture not to leave a single plot of ground any where uncultivated, was followed today by a peremptory decree by the Austrian government ordering land owners to SOW immediately every available part of their ground with spring wheat Where neces- sary, local authorities are empowered by the decree to provide labor for this work and to recover from the sale of crops the expenditures incurred. Failure to comply with the edict is punishable by heavy fines or imprisonment
 The minister of agricultHe was quoted as saying in his appeal Thursday:
 Peace depends more than ever upon the work in the fields this spring. The power of the army and the security of the state are conditional upon the pro- ductiveness of agriculture"
 The question of food supplies in Aus tria-Hungary is daily becoming more acute, according; to recent news dispatches, and the government has confscated all stores of grain. The shortage of fodder for cattle is greatly increasing the gravity of the situation.

 WITHOUT WARNING.

Survivors of English Ship Sunk by Germans Tell of Disaster.

Liverpool, February 2O.-tyia Lon- don, 1s2O ?. m.D-Without warming, s German submarine torpedoed the Brit- ish steamer Cambnnk n few miles east of Linas Point, in the Irish sea, about II o'clock this morning.
 The explosion killed the third engI- neer and two firemen. Another mem her of the crew was drowned tn an att tempt to jump into boat. The re- maindcr of the crew and the pilot, 20 In all. were saved.
 One of the men in describing the experience of the Cambank said: We were bound from Huelva, Spain. for Liverpool with cargo of copper. When outside of Amlych, on the north coast of Wales, we took aboard a pilot. We had gathered speed when a periscope was observed about 200 yards away. The engines were reversed, but while the vessel was turning the submarine discharged torpedo, which struck us amidships.
 We launched the lifeboats and man aged to pull clear before the Calnbanl1 sank. We had no time to save anything and most of us were scanti1y clad and much exhausted when a boat took us in charge and lowed us into Awmlych harbor"
 A steamer which has arrived here re- ported that she had been warned by the Cambank that there was a submar- inc in the vfcinity. She at once put on full steam and, being speedy vessel. reached port safely.

The Turkish official report however, stated that no damage had been done 10 the forts and that the casualties of the defenders consisted of one killed and one wounded, but that three of the warships were damaged by shots from the forts.
 British reports said that the forts on the European side of the straits were silenced yesterday and that only one of the forts on the Asiatic side was still firing yesterday evening, while none of the warships had been damaged. The Greek accounts said that the Asiatic forts were silenced today, but no of ficial report of this bombardment has been issued by the admiralty as yet.
 The bombardment must have been one of the most serious ever undertaken, in the opinion of naval experts, for no less than eight battleships and arm ored cruisers took part, these warships having total of 30 12-inch and six

The warrant clerk refused to honor the requisition, stat ing that Attorney General Martin had stated that the office he held termin- ated on January IS.
 The question is an interesting one. General Scully's successor has not yet been named by Governor Henderson, hence the head of the military depart ment still continues to discharge the duties of the office However. his war rant was held up for expenses incurred m January.
 It is expected that Attorney General Martin will within the next day or two issue an official opinion regarding the case
